Conan: I am really a good person

Chapter 375: Brother, Who Are You?
The bright blue task prompt box that only one person can see floats quietly above the phone, as if it were projected from the phone's screen.

[Detected mission: [Incredible 'Miracle Fire']]

[Mission details: Ida, who is currently in school, cannot go on a date, but can explain the mission alone. ]

[Task Reward: **(Unsolved)]

[Task Tips: On the third day of creation, God created... This is the last thing, the despair of the past and the hope of the future. ]

[Please note that [＊＊＊ (Unsolved)] is of great importance. Players should consider whether to accept the task, accept the task, or accept the task after careful consideration. ]

In response, a future comment: "."

He glanced at the task prompt and read all the bright blue words. He really wanted to say that as he changed more and more of his past, the system became less and less pretentious, and it almost jumped at him in joy to give him important tasks.

The garbled item rewarded by this mission will obviously reveal why "A Future" will overturn the entire world and start over again, and it must be a very important news, more important than "In fact, the game is not just about the past, it will also change reality."

……所以有些家伙明明犹疑'再来一次，未婚妻还会爱上我吗？会的吧？应该会的吧？肯定会的吧？'，却还不留一点后门，实在欠揍。

Ichijo Mirai complained in his heart, staring at the screen of his phone unhappily, trying to decipher the upside-down Japanese words on it: shopping mall...

"Hey, did Instructor Onitsuka contact you?" Ida Hang subconsciously asked, and then honestly explained, "The instructor just called us suddenly to ask if we were playing here. He said that he heard something big happened here and guessed that we must be nearby."

"He said that it was great and outstanding to have successfully arrested a mentally ill murderer. He also said that from the information he retrieved, this incident was also related to Zhufu. If we have nothing to do, we can go to the police station together to record our statements and get some information. As long as we say that we are students of this year's police academy, the officers will be very enthusiastic and may even ask you for help."

"If you don't want to go to the police station, then you can enjoy a young night out with your classmates, eating, drinking and having fun together," he said, truthfully relaying what Onizuka Yazo said, "but it's best not to go to the department store. There was a fire there, and it seems to be quite large. The police are organizing people to go to the rescue."

It was precisely because manpower was being withdrawn and the number of police officers left in the police station would decrease that Hachizo Onizuka said he could go to the police station with them.

Since the police force is short of manpower, it is normal to let outstanding police academy students take action. Although they certainly cannot be allowed to directly interrogate the mentally ill prisoner, it is still acceptable for them to participate in the case to do something unimportant but silently intimidate the enemy.

This is the love that a teacher has for his students, but there is also a little selfishness in his heart: "If I tie his future to the police station, he won't get into trouble again, right?"

Caring is obvious, while selfishness is more like a fly near a light bulb. When everyone heard Ida Hang retell this, they couldn't help but look towards the future.

"It seems that the instructor thinks we will cause trouble and wants to tie us up." Ichijo Mirai expanded the attack range without blinking, and the group attack pulled everyone into combat. "But, the instructor knows about it, the fire must be very serious now, right?"

From the time the fire started, the time it took to call the police, and the time it took for the news to spread, the fire had grown more and more intense. From the size of the mission reward and the mission name, "Miracle Fire", Yitiao Weili sensed something was not simple. He ignored the unimportant factors in the information and decided directly: "As righteous and brave police academy students, of course we have to help. I guess this is what the instructor expects, right?"

He answered himself, "Yes."

"Okay, then Ida-san, who's not on a date, could you please tell me more about the fire?"

As he spoke, Yi Tiao Wei pretended to identify the direction, then turned around and asked Zhu Fu Jingguang in a low voice.

Zhu Fu Jingguang pointed in the direction of the department store helplessly, but his good intentions were not rewarded. As soon as he pointed, he was grabbed by the shoulders and forced towards the department store.

People have two hands, and the other one who was forcibly twisted away by the future was Ida Ko.

"…The instructor didn't tell us much about the details of the fire during the call. It seemed like he had just learned about it and didn't know much about it." Idahang was used to it. He was silent for a few seconds before continuing, "But a message just came in saying that the fire seemed to be very serious. There are many people at the moment, and the location is a department store. The police are urgently discussing how many people to send to participate in the rescue. By then, there may be a lot of people available, so we can go to the police station to help."

After another pause, he said speechlessly: "The instructor can also look forward to our support."

'It's something to look forward to.'

Excluding other factors, between going to the police station to help and going to the emergency fire scene for support, Ida Hang still prefers the latter, and it is certain that his classmates are more inclined to the latter.

But he said with his eyes open, "The instructor is looking forward to our support, and we must fulfill the instructor's expectations!" It's too much to beat the master with random punches, isn't it unethical?

"It's not 'can be expected', it's 'just expected'," Yitiao Future corrected casually, forcing the first wave of students to go down a path of no return. After finding that the idiots seemed willing, he let go, "Also, I know that the Japanese police are lame, and I complained about their lameness in two stages, when I thought it was a game and when I thought it was the past. But now that a new stage has arrived, why am I still complaining about their lameness?"

"Shouldn't the first thing that happens when a mall catches fire be the emergency police response? Shouldn't the police, firefighters and hospitals be mobilized immediately? Why is the first thing that gets people nervous about the issue of 'discussing how many people to send'?"

He vowed, "Believe me, even though the instructor may not realize it himself, he definitely expects us to go to the fire scene to help rather than go to the police station to watch the officers' heated discussions."

Anyway, the instructor is not here, so I have no right to interpret.

Anyway, the instructor is a normal person and he wouldn’t think it’s normal that the police didn’t respond immediately.

The normal human instructor was very helpful and provided accurate information. Under the guidance of Zhufupai's high-quality map, after walking for more than ten minutes, the low-quality map saw a fire in the distance.

The neon lights in the city were still desperately emitting light that symbolized humanity, interweaving a hazy red and blue light on the night sky. Mixed with the neon light, the orange light of the flames rising into the sky was not too dazzling. Coupled with the billowing black smoke, the night was dark again. Even though the department store building was very tall, people far away would not notice at first glance that there was a fire somewhere.

When there was no fire, the department store looked like a crystal clear blue gem building, with its exterior made up of floor-to-ceiling windows and gray walls interwoven between them. But after the fire broke out, the lower floors turned red, like orange signal lights, while the upper floors that were not affected by the fire were shrouded in dark clouds of black smoke.

After a few rough observations, Tiaowei determined that the fire originated on the third or fourth floor, and was spreading fiercely, blocking the escape route of those who did not go downstairs in time on the upper floors.

An open space was cordoned off by alert police near the entrance of the shopping mall. The police who had arrived were sweating profusely as they tried to stop the crowd, especially those who had managed to escape, including their friends, relatives or acquaintances. From time to time, they looked back at the increasingly fierce fire in the building with obvious fear on their faces. Someone raised a walkie-talkie and made an urgent call to the other end, probably requesting support.

It was at this time that the sirens of fire trucks finally came. Several fire trucks drove through the crowd with difficulty. Before they stopped completely, some people jumped out of the car and began to unload equipment, while others seriously cleared a path towards the police and planned a way to rush into the building.

Time is money, but Yi Tiao Future did not move. He stopped after reaching the cordon. At first, he looked at the building carefully and memorized the floors and positions of the people near the windows. After the fire truck arrived, he looked at the situation and personnel of the fire truck silently.

While he was looking around, Zhu Fu Jingguang talked to the nearest policeman for a few words. The other party showed a surprised expression and subconsciously looked at Yitiao Weilai.

His focus was on the eyes. When he saw that the person he was observing with frowning brows had red eyes, the surprise and doubt on his face disappeared in an instant. Then, he said a few words to the intercom, raised the cordon a little, and whispered, "You go in."

Having completed his observations, he glanced at the firefighters who were busy putting out the fire and rushing into the mall, and said to his classmates, "There are many trapped people on the upper floors. We need to lay rescue beds as soon as possible. We also need someone to go up and communicate with the trapped people and cooperate with the people near the rescue beds to rescue them as soon as possible. Otherwise, even if the fire doesn't spread up, they will die from the smoke."

While speaking quickly, he reached out to take the walkie-talkie from the police officer, gestured and asked if there were any other walkie-talkies. Then he realized that the police officer might not understand, so he simply pointed at the other police officers, then at the walkie-talkies, and finally at himself.

The police officer turned around hesitantly and asked his companion for the intercom. "We will communicate via intercom later," said Yitiao Weilai. "If anyone finds the trapped person, please report their location via intercom."

"If the intercom doesn't work... then try to remember the locations of all the trapped people you meet. If I have the chance, I'll come to you to ask for your last words."

"Ok," Zhu Fujingguang withdrew his gaze from the fire department, "I'll go ask if there are any extra equipment. As for the rescue bed, I..."

Ida Hang took over the conversation and said, "Let me do it."

"I've learned this before," he said, "I should be able to cooperate with the firefighters. We can communicate via intercom, or rely on tacit understanding if that doesn't work."

Logically speaking, it should be a tacit understanding among the police that "under xx circumstances, xx should be done to rescue the trapped people."

"Okay," said Yitiao Weilai without saying anything. After making sure that there were people he trusted staying on the first floor, he simply rushed in. "Then I'll go in first."

He had no intention of getting any equipment, and didn't even take the wet towel. He just rushed out holding a walkie-talkie.

The moment he stepped into the first floor, the mission details were updated:
[Mission details: This is a fierce hellfire, venting its hatred and anger by burning human bones.]

[Total number of people in need of rescue: 156 (0 rescued, 35 dead, 121 waiting for rescue). ]

The first floor had already collapsed. If you walked a few more steps inside, even if you opened your eyes, you would feel your eyes were irritated and filled with a hazy cloud of smoke and fire.

A glimpse of the future passed by the details and identified the direction of the stairs in the thick smoke. He could hear subconscious shouts and the sounds following behind him, but he did not look back. He covered his nose with his arm and rushed towards the building without changing his expression.

When he passed the elevator, his ears moved, and he braked suddenly in some disbelief: there was a dull clapping sound in the elevator.

Judging from the sound, it was not on the first floor, but on the second or third floor. Someone must have entered the elevator out of habit in a hurry and wanted to escape by going down to the first floor, but got trapped.

After a few seconds of pause, the person who had just followed had caught up. It was Zhu Fu Jingguang, holding a wet towel that was urgently handed to him by the police officer who was almost scared to death.

He patted Yi Yiwei's shoulder without even looking over. He was looking in the direction of the elevator, almost forcing a wet towel over Yi Yiwei's face, "Elevator?"

“…There won’t be anyone in the elevator, right?”

This was a bit like revenge. Ichijo Mirai glanced at Zhufu Jingguang's rare face that was not smiling, and reached out to take the towel. "Well, it's probably on the second or third floor. They gave it to you."

"Please tap the elevator and ask them which floor they are on. See if you can pry the door open and get them out. I'll go upstairs and find the source of the fire."

After completing a rescue mission, Ichijo Mirai once again ignored Zhufu Jingguang's voice calling him and rushed upstairs.

When he rushed to the fourth floor, the fire was even more fierce. He smelled the almost inaudible smell of gasoline in the extremely pungent air.

There were still some sounds on the first and second floors, which were the cries for help from a small number of trapped people. The third and fourth floors were completely quiet, with only the crackling sound of flames and objects collapsing. The burning situation on the fourth floor was more serious than that on the first floor, and there were traces of the fire everywhere.

Ichijo Mirai walked for more than ten meters on the fourth floor before he determined from some debris that this floor was dedicated to selling food.

He put the wet towel down and walked past several shops with traces of gasoline residue, frowning as he looked for any signs of human activity.

When I walked past the restroom in the mall, in addition to the crackling sound of the flames, a second sound finally rang out: "Drip", "Drip", "Drip"...

Compared with the fierce and relentless crackling sound, this dripping sound was neither fast nor slow, beating again and again, like a basin of cold water in a scorching hell.

It's the sound of a time bomb.

The system prompted a sound and slowly updated the latest progress: [Bombs to be defused: 0/5. ]

A future: "..."

No way, sir, there is such a deep hatred and resentment, who has been harmed by the department store?

He pressed the intercom in silence to share the surprise moment with his classmates, "Five time bombs were found."

"Cai Cai, laolao, cheat code, please, bye, see you next round."

At this critical moment, no one answered his usual madness, and soon Matsuda Jinpei's voice rushed out from the intercom, "Huh? Time bomb?!"

Then came Zhu Fu Jingguang's voice, "The three trapped people in the elevator have been rescued. Two people were trapped ten meters to the side of the west stairwell on the second floor and have been rescued."

Apart from the weak breathing, his voice was calm, unlike the explosive voice of Jinpei Matsuda. It was obvious that he had been sent out temporarily and was currently on the verge of a transition.

Suddenly, his voice hesitated. "A time bomb means that the fire must have been man-made, right?"

"Something fell from the top floor. It's..."

Banner.

As Zhu Fu Jingguang was speaking, he noticed that the sound of bombs was getting faster and faster, and immediately moved away from it, and saw a bright red color fluttering by the window.

There were some words written on the red banner, but they were quite difficult to discern because of the flames, smoke and wind.

But the impact force of the bomb explosion was so overwhelming that it eliminated these external forces, leaving the banner only affected by itself and flying outward.

Then the words above became clear:
【This is just the first gift, Prime Minister Uemoto, 'Satan'. 】

This is just the first...plant...Prime Minister...

...'Satan'?
Huh? Who are you, brother?
