Ke Xue: The thief Cao is actually myself

Chapter 468 A new storm has appeared! (Please give me a monthly ticket!)

"The sun will set in half an hour!"

Looking at the scenery outside the window, Dr. Agasa's face looked a little heavy.

"But the bombs will go off as soon as the sun goes down."

At this point, Dr. Agasa paused, touched his chin, and said thoughtfully, "This seems to be completely opposite to the skateboard I invented!"

"It can be seen from this that the power source of that bomb must not be solar energy!"

"Otherwise, when the sun goes down, you won't be able to move."

The solar skateboard he invented is equipped with a high-performance solar engine that uses sunlight as its power source. The maximum speed is determined by solar energy, which is about 80km/h.

However, the bomb installed by the mysterious man would explode as soon as the sun set. These were obviously two completely different things.

"sun?"

Hearing his words, Conan, who was lying on the bed, was slightly stunned, and then his pupils shrank suddenly, "I understand!"

"I understand, Doctor!"

Seeing him like this, Dr. Agasa was a little dumbfounded.

You understand, what do you understand?

He still doesn't understand anything here!

How come a high school detective knows everything?
However, Conan ignored his confusion and had no intention of explaining to him. Instead, he took out his cell phone, called up the contact, and made a call.

The number he dialed was not from anyone else, but from his good partner, Inspector Megure.

"Jingle Bell……"

Looking at the strange contact displayed on the phone screen, Officer Megure was stunned for a moment, "Hello, this is Officer Megure..."

At this time, a stranger actually called him?

Wait, could it be the mysterious man who installed the bomb on the loop line?
That can’t be possible. His contact information should only be known by people he knows well, right?
As he was in doubt, a familiar voice came from the other end of the phone, "I'm Kudo Shinichi."

Hearing that the person coming was actually his brother Kudo, Inspector Megure was surprised and delighted, "Oh, it's you! Brother Kudo!"

Conan didn't exchange pleasantries with him, but directly stated his purpose. After all, they didn't have much time left. "I have heard everything from Dr. Agasa. In fact, the location where the criminal actually installed the bomb..."

But before he could finish, Inspector Megure interrupted him and said, "The bomb is located between the railroad tracks, right?"

They already knew the answer to this question, but the high school detective came a little late this time!
"Huh?" Conan was slightly surprised, "Officer Megure, how did you know?"

Hey, the bomb is located between the railroad tracks, but he just thought of it. But how did Inspector Megure and others know that?
Don’t tell him that this time, Inspector Megure deduced the answer to the question before him, the famous detective!
After a pause, Inspector Megure told Conan why he knew the location of the bomb, "This, was told to me by Brother Bai Ye!"

Conan was stunned. "What? You said that Bai Ye told you?"

Officer Megure nodded, "That's right, we called Brother Bai Ye for help before, and it took him only a few minutes to figure out the mysterious man's trick and help us find the location of the bomb!"

"Only took a few minutes?"

Conan was a little confused.

Could it be that the gap between him and Bai Ye is so huge?
It was so big that Bai Ye could quickly solve all the puzzles just by listening to the general outline of the matter on the phone, but it took him more than half an hour to figure it out?

For a moment, Conan couldn't help but doubt his life...

……

"Great, we finally got off the bus!"

After landing safely from the train, Mitsuhiko's voice still trembled slightly.

God knows how scared and uneasy he was when he knew there was a bomb on the tram.

Fortunately, this nightmare has finally come to an end!
Yuan Tai stretched his body and sighed, "I will never try my best to catch the train again!"

After this lesson, he would never catch the tram again even if he was beaten to death.

After all, who knows if there will be a bomb on the tram again.

If he encountered a similar situation again, he felt that he might never dare to take the tram again.

"Really? Great!"

Listening to the voices of Genta and others coming from the detective badge, Conan and Dr. Agasa beside him looked at each other, their eyes full of relief and joy.

Fortunately, nothing happened to his friends.

This is really a blessing in disguise.

"Conan, did you find out where the bomb was this time?"

Listening to Ayumi's expectant voice, Conan felt a little bitter.

If possible, he also hoped that he would be the first person to find the location of the bomb.

But unfortunately, although he found the location of the bomb this time, he was not the first person to discover the location of the bomb.

He was several steps behind a certain private investigator!

"No, this time it was Big Brother Bai Ye who discovered it!"

Ayumi blinked her beautiful eyes, "Hey, is it Brother Bai Ye?"

It seems that if she has the chance, she will invite that handsome big brother to her home for a meal and thank him properly.

After all, even a drop of kindness should be repaid with a spring.

Not to mention, this time, it was a life-saving grace!
"Yes, it's him..." Conan took a deep breath and suppressed his depression. "To be honest, the five bombs have not been found yet!"

So, now is not the time to completely relax!

……

"understood!"

After hanging up the phone, Inspector Megure announced the good news to Maori Kogoro in the ward, "Great, the five bombs have been recovered safely!
The five bombs were installed after 4 p.m. in a place where there were no buildings or walls to block the light. When searching, one had to constantly pay attention to the position of the sun and avoid letting one's shadow cover the bombs.

If it weren't for this, with the manpower of the police, they would have found the bomb long ago. How could they have only recovered all the bombs now? "Great!"

Not only Conan, but also Kogoro Mouri and Dr. Agasa couldn't help but show happy expressions on their faces.

"Great!"

Inspector Megure sighed, "This time, thanks to Brother Bai Ye's correct reasoning..."

If Bai Ye hadn't helped us in time, a tragedy might have happened today.

Dr. Agasa raised his wrist and looked at his watch. He was relieved. "There are still twenty minutes until sunset. It's really a close call!"

"call……"

After letting out a sigh of relief, Officer Megure did not completely relax because all five bombs had been defused. His face was still very serious: "But it's too early for us to be happy now!"

Although the five bombs were dismantled and the crisis on the ring line was completely resolved, it does not mean that the matter is over.

Because the criminals who made those bombs and installed them on the loop line have not been caught yet!

As long as he is not caught one day, no one can guarantee that with his crazy character, he will not commit similar evil deeds again!

Maori Kogoro and Dr. Agasa were both stunned, not quite understanding why Inspector Megure said that, "Eh..."

As they watched, Officer Megure said with a heavy face, "Because the amount of bombs seized is only a quarter of the total amount stolen from the stolen batch a few days ago."

Hearing this, Maori Kogoro's face also looked a little unhappy, "So, the criminal still has three-quarters of the gunpowder in his hand?"

One quarter of the gunpowder almost killed thousands of people. If the remaining three quarters exploded, the casualties would be even more serious than the ring line explosion.

After all, the mysterious man was so cruel that he installed bombs on the loop line. No matter how he thought about it, he didn't think that the other party would discard the remaining bombs.

For a moment, he didn't know whether he should complain that the guards of the Japanese gunpowder depot were too useless, allowing so much gunpowder to be stolen, or he should be shocked by the mysterious man's cruelty.

Just when everyone looked heavy-hearted, suddenly, the door of the ward was opened, and a coral-headed police officer walked in. It was Officer Shiratori who went to investigate Mayor Okamoto's son. "Sorry, I'm late!"

Noticing his presence, Inspector Megure frowned slightly and asked quickly, "What are the results of the investigation?"

"Yes, based on my investigation of Mayor Okamoto's son, Kohei Okamoto."

Officer Shiratori responded, then pulled out a small notebook from his pocket and said, "It is certain that he left Tokyo this morning and headed for Izu."

Touching his chin, Officer Megure sighed slightly, "So, this matter has nothing to do with him!"

If Mayor Okamoto's son was not in Tokyo this morning, then he obviously could not be the culprit of the bombing.

After all, when they were in the Green Park before, Conan and others had discovered the figure of a mysterious man nearby.

How could a person who had left Tokyo long ago reappear in Tokyo in a short period of time?

Unless, after leaving Tokyo, the other party sneaked back, or used a substitute.

But Inspector Megure feels that this possibility is unlikely.

After all, Officer Shiratori is different from the others under his command. He is an elite police officer who passed the Japanese National Civil Service Class I Examination through his own efforts.

It is impossible for such an elite in the police force to not even be able to investigate whether Mayor Okamoto's son has really left Tokyo!
In other words, the criminal who installed the bomb on the loop line was not Mayor Okamoto's son, but someone else.

Officer Shiratori nodded slightly, confirming Officer Megure's guess, "Yes."

In fact, after some investigation, he also felt that Mayor Okamoto's son was not a suspect.

Putting the small notebook back into his arms, Officer Shiratori asked worriedly, "Officer, regarding this bomb incident..."

But before Inspector Megure could answer his question, Maori Kogoro took over the topic and said, "It has been solved."

Hearing this, Officer Shiratori couldn't help but look at Kogoro Mouri in surprise.

Has it been solved? Is it that fast?
It was obvious that these people had no idea at all before he left to investigate Mayor Okamoto's son.

How come these people found the bomb just when he went out to investigate?

Didn't he miss a lot of things when he went out to investigate this time?
"This time, it's all thanks to Brother Bai Ye..."

After sighing once more, Inspector Megure raised a finger and said, "What's the next question?"

"The gunpowder and the prisoners."

Only by arresting the real culprit behind this incident and recovering the gunpowder he stole from the Oriental powder depot, can this case be truly concluded and the city of Tokyo become truly safe.

"Based on the current data, we can know the prisoner's residence..."

Hearing his words, Maori Kogoro pinched his chin and said confidently: "It is impossible to install bombs in the five places on the loop line. I believe everyone agrees on this point, right?"

Officer Megure was stunned for a moment, "Huh?"

Why was Brother Maori so sure that the criminal who stole a large amount of gunpowder from the Japanese powder depot could not live near the ring line, especially near the five places where the bombs were installed? Could it be that the other party discovered something?
Seeing him like this, Maori Kogoro couldn't help but say, "Isn't that the case? How could he set the bomb near his home? You know, if the bomb explodes, the train will be blown apart, and by then, the affected area will definitely not be small!"

Who would install a bomb near their own residence?
Unless the other party doesn't want to live anymore.

"and many more……"

At this point, Maori Kogoro seemed to have thought of something and paused for a moment, "I know! He paused the timer of the pet basket today, it must be for the same reason!"

Hearing this, Conan frowned slightly.

If Maori Kogoro hadn't said this, he wouldn't have realized it. As soon as he heard it, he immediately thought of the strange pause when he was transferring the bomb before.

He had previously thought that there was something wrong with the bomb's timer, but now it seemed that the criminal might have deliberately tampered with it.

This is to prevent the explosion from affecting where they live.

And if he remembered correctly, the nearest place to there should be the children's park and that apartment building...

While he was thinking, Maori Kogoro said what was in his mind, "Yes, I think the criminal is probably living in that apartment!"

Hearing this, Officer Megure pondered for a moment and made a decision, "Okay, let's go to that apartment now!"

"Um……"

After looking at each other, everyone stopped hesitating and decisively rushed towards the location of the apartment...
