Conan: I am really a good person

Chapter 255 Claw Marks

A future voice turned on the broadcast, "Qiang Qiang Qiang, it's dawn, please open your eyes."

"I opened my eyes."

He shook his phone carelessly, looked at the motionless crowd on the screen, and sighed, "So good,"

He was a little too timid, but after playing once or twice, he took the opportunity to fish and killed a few police officers, and the rest of the crowd squatted obediently and could not beat them to death.

Either aware that those who were shot did not die, or not aware of it.

The cell phone beeped. Ichigo Mirai looked over and finally cheered up. "Emergency news, a bank robbery occurred at Mihua Bank. About 89 people are missing, including the elderly, pregnant women and children."

He read into the microphone, so that everyone could hear this news broadcast, "According to interviews with surrounding residents, we learned important news. From the beginning of the turmoil to now, Mihua Bank is suspected of having exploded once, and a total of More than a dozen gunshots,"

"If the situation is serious, more than ten people who have lost contact so far may have died unfortunately."

"The police have moved quickly to surround the bank and are about to start negotiations with the robbers."

The sound of the broadcast came out, and the crowd on the surveillance screen shook slightly, as if the sea was wavy under the wind. The hostages looked at each other.

Mirai Ichijo guessed that there must be a buzzing sound like flies in the hall on the first floor. He said: "According to the calculation method in the news, there are too many people alive, right? There are more than 70 people. It's really difficult to handle. "

"There are too many people, what should we do?"

There is something dangerous about this statement.

The somewhat turbulent sea surface returned to calm, and the hostages once again fell silent with their ears and noses in mind.

Even if they realized that this was not a real bank robbery, and they would not necessarily die if they were shot, their instinctive sense of smell was still activated at the moment of danger. They smelled some crisis and felt that there was a real danger. The sense of danger that the criminal may die at any time.

"The police have surrounded the bank, so we can't get out," Ichimi Mirai stated, "we can only hold on in the bank,"

"There are too many hostages for us to manage,"

"If the police are more understanding, we only have to hold on for two or three hours, that's okay, but if the police are not understanding, we have to hold on for more than ten hours..."

He thought, "How will I manage you?"

The hostages have basic problems with their eating and excretion, as well as illness, psychological breakdown, suffering for too long, the fake guns of the robbers not being enough to intimidate them, and therefore brewing counterattacks, emergencies at work, and family emergencies, all of which are needed. Advanced questions to consider.

This is a difficult problem and one that robbers need to seriously consider.

Just like raising a cat, you need to think carefully about which brand of cat food is healthier, what type of water dispenser is more suitable for cats, how much water you need to drink every day to prevent urination, the proportion of cat food and raw meat, and how often you need to wash it. A bath, when to vaccinate and neuter, etc.

But Ichijo didn't plan to keep a cat in the future. He looked at the screen for a few seconds, looked at the crowds of people on it, and snapped his fingers as if he was organizing ideas to solve a problem. "Ah, there is a way."

He spoke in a relaxed tone, "Since there are too many people and there is a problem, wouldn't it be enough to reduce the number of people?"

"As for how to reduce..."

Mirai Ichijo was very considerate, "Let the police decide?"

*

The police are struggling.

Before the bank robbery hit the emergency news, specialized personnel began to control public opinion.

But not under control.

The media and the police have a dialectical cooperation relationship. Sometimes they provide conveniences and cooperate with each other. The media suppresses bad news or rumors for the police, and the police provide special cases for the media to disclose information at certain moments.

Sometimes, it is a hostile relationship, pulling each other. One side wants to get the truth and report the news even if it is detrimental to the police. News reports go out.

This time, the two are enemies.

"...They are so ignorant."

The news on TV is reporting, and almost everyone in Tokyo is paying attention to this bank robbery. Residents near the bank are even more concerned.

A police officer glanced at the TV in the convenience store and the old man who was watching the TV. His face darkened, "I have clearly warned not to report casually, but I still reported it."

After a pause, he asked: "Is that guy Matsumoto still trying to shirk?"

The elderly police officer, who appeared to be in his early fifties, was sitting in the back seat of a car.

It was a private car, not a police car with flashing lights, so the people in the convenience store didn't pay much attention to it and focused on the TV and the passing police cars.

On the roadside, police cars flashed their lights and rushed towards the bank not far away. Only occasionally a few police cars recognized the license plate when passing this private car at high speed, so they slowed down in advance, as if On a rainy day, I politely slowed down, passing by cautiously like splashing water, and then started speeding again.

The old police officer did not move his eyes away, still watching TV.

In the driver's seat, a young plainclothes police officer observed the officer's expression in the rearview mirror, "Chief Matsumoto said that his injuries have not healed yet and he is not in good condition, and he has not had much contact or in-depth communication with the robbers. If you don’t understand the robber’s character and behavior habits, you are unlikely to serve as a consultant..."

In the rearview mirror, the old police officer's expression darkened again.

Since there were only two people in the car, he did not hide his emotions and cursed in a low voice in annoyance.

"I just sent someone to contact the TV station again and planned to clarify that it was an exercise," the young police officer added, "but they said..."

"The robbers contacted them and asked for a live conversation,"

"You see?"

Live conversation?

Wouldn't that just show the police's helplessness directly in front of the eyes of the entire Tokyo people?

Even if this is just an exercise, a fake bank robbery... No, it is precisely because this is an exercise, an exercise that the police and the bank have already known and prepared in advance, that makes the police even more embarrassed.

Everyone watching the live news will think: Since it was a premeditated exercise, why were the police and the bank so vulnerable that the robbers took over the entire bank in just ten minutes?

Faced with an attack that was premeditated and the police had already known and prepared for it, they all dealt with it in such a panic. So wouldn't it be even more vulnerable to face real bank robbery robbers without knowing it and being caught off guard? !

Can't agree.

The elderly police officer flatly refused, "No,"

His brows were furrowed tightly, and his somewhat slack eyelids also formed creases one after another. "Wait a minute and contact the guy inside the bank directly." Suddenly, he stopped abruptly and looked at the TV in the convenience store. , his face turned livid.

There were exclamations from the convenience store.

The young police officer quickly withdrew his gaze, which was carefully observing Shangguan's face and trying to figure out Shangguan's emotions, and looked towards the convenience store.

He saw several elderly people and children gathered around, saw the TV being played, and saw the picture on the TV. It was a bank...

A young male? !

On the TV screen, there was a young man sitting on a chair with his back to the camera. Most of his body was almost covered by the chair, with only his black hoodie and black hair exposed.

He seemed to want to turn the chair, but due to the camera, he couldn't turn the chair 360 degrees, so he only slightly swayed to the left and right, with a very small amplitude.

In front of him was a huge screen, which was a monitoring screen. The screen was divided into several squares. Nearly one-half was for monitoring in the hall, and the remaining one-half was filled with six small squares. It's full of surveillance everywhere in the bank.

The young police officer has been to the Rice Flower Bank, but not to the control room of the Rice Flower Bank. He has seen the photo of the famous police academy student, but has never seen the back of the police academy student.

But at this moment, he recognized it directly: the person on TV was the 'Messiah' at Rice Flower Bank!

'Messiah' actually made it to the news without the police's consent!

The young police officer quickly went to see the old police officer, "What should I do?"

"...This 'leader'," the old police officer said slowly, "is controlling the rhythm."

This bank robbery is rhythmic.

Logically speaking, the early rhythm should belong to the criminals. They launched an unexpected attack by the police and created a temporary emergency. After the beginning, it is the police who really control the rhythm.

The situation will change based on police actions.

Since the bank was caught off guard and lost its position, the one who controls the rhythm has become a future.

The point when the police learns the news, surrounds the bank, and is about to make countermeasures is a crucial point for the police to seize the opportunity. As long as the countermeasures are qualified, they can enter the game and let the situation evolve into a normal bank robbery. situation.

Under this situation, bank robberies will almost always have one outcome: the police will successfully solve the bank robbery case.

But now, a piece of news from the future is connected, what is he going to do?

...Make a request.

He doesn't want the police to decide the countermeasures, and he doesn't want the situation to be affected by the police's countermeasures. He wants the police to be moved by him and run tired because of his control.

The old police officer can basically be sure that this outstanding police student leader will definitely make some very difficult and unacceptable demands to the police, but during the live broadcast, under the watchful eyes of countless Tokyo citizens, the police must accept.

Unknowingly, his ugly face returned to normal, he became calm, and even smiled a little, "No wonder that guy Matsumoto didn't want to get involved, it turned out to be a hot potato,"

"I heard that this police academy student cared about him very much. Not only did he rescue and treat his almost fatal wounds as soon as he was injured, he also avenged him and cleaned up the fish that slipped through the net,"

As if talking to himself, the old police officer said thoughtfully: "This police academy student has been out of sight of the police for many years, but maybe he has not really lost contact and is still in contact with the police. That's why he Returning to the police academy so openly,"

The contact person is, of course, Manager Matsumoto.

The old police officer understood Matsumoto Kiyonaga's personality and speculated that their relationship should be that of a father and a friend. He pondered again for a moment and ordered, "Go back to the police station."

"There may be many hostages coming out later, there will be chaos around here, and there may be accidents. Let's go back to the police station first,"

He said: "Let's see how the police department responds."

Let’s see how the police department responds.

The young police officer subconsciously looked at the rearview mirror, a little surprised, and almost blurted out: Huh? Do you want to delegate authority to the police? But when you came to the front line, didn't you just want to take over the command before the person in charge arrived at the front line and you were the highest-ranking police officer present?

And at the moment when they looked at each other, they understood almost immediately: The idea stuck, so withdraw.

He nodded respectfully, "Hi!"

The private car started and turned back along the street in the direction of the police station.

Along the way, the young police officer was driving intently, while the old police officer was looking at his mobile phone.

He fiddled with his cell phone unfamiliarly and studied the changes in the situation attentively. "The 'robbers' asked the police to take over the hostages, but they gave them a list and let the police check their identities and decide which hostages to name."

This is really...

The conflict between the robbers and the hostages suddenly turned into a conflict between the hostages and the police.

The old police officer smiled and said, "Those hostages who did not come out may not necessarily resent the robbers, but they will definitely resent the police."

And this resentment is justified: Why are the police conducting bank robbery exercises when they have nothing to do? They also forced the citizens to cooperate, and they were so full that they were so full!

It doesn't matter if the police win a big victory. Once the police respond with even a hint of reluctance, countless criticisms will follow after the exercise is over.

This is a hot potato.

The old police officer who had nothing to do with the hot potato said cheerfully, "The guy down there must be very happy after going through all the trouble to grab this hot potato, right? You just made a mistake."

He continued to diligently search for the latest news, "Several of the hostages have sudden illnesses, including children and pregnant women. The robbers asked the police to speed up and pick up these hostages who may have accidents as soon as possible and send them to the hospital. Check,"

After thinking about it, the old police officer changed his mind, "We don't need to wait for the list of hostages to appear. Now, many people will criticize the police for being cold-blooded and ruthless and playing with the lives of citizens without thinking."

"The robbers requested that at the same time they send the hostages out according to the list, the police should transport the corresponding cash to the door of the bank,"

"One hostage, one million yen."

The old police officer pondered for a moment, narrowed his eyes, and did not express his judgment: This student leader of the police academy has a very prejudiced view of the police.

Otherwise, why would they pour pots of boiling hot water on the police like they were killing chickens, as if they would not stop until a layer of their skin was torn off?

In this quiet space, the young police officer cautiously said: "The robber must have confessed more on the live broadcast, right? You want to watch the live broadcast,"

The old police officer shook his head and interrupted, "No,"

"Think of him as one of your contemporaries, think of him as an old guy like me, and you will understand why I don't watch live broadcasts, only watch the news."

Whether the live broadcast is the latest news, or it is said by the robber himself, it is a source worth checking again and again.

However, if the live broadcast is someone like him, the old police officer will not want to watch the live broadcast. He does not need to think carefully to determine that there must be many confusing factors in the live broadcast, as well as traps and pitfalls to stir up emotions. .

Instead of watching the live broadcast, facing a cunning fox, and racking your brains to fight, it is better to look at the claw marks left by the fox.
