"Xinghai Paradise has been established at a very early age. It's just that the tourist situation has been bad recently, and it has been losing money, and it is estimated that it will be closed this year. ”

After closing, Mito Heavy Industries will buy the land and use it to build a factory to make industrial supplies.

"After so many years in a blink of an eye, I still feel like I remember."

Looking at everything that seems to be familiar, I feel a little nostalgic inexplicably.

"Huh?"

Mrs. Yuan looked at her, "So Sister Xiaotang, are you already an aunt?" ”

Qinghai Chuantang's fist clicked and smiled, and there was an urge to make this child into claypot rice.

"I'm still very young, so I have to call my sister."

Yuantai, who was shocked by force, was much quieter in an instant.

"Alright, let's go play."

Xinghai Paradise is a children's theme park, so roller coasters or anything else don't exist at all.

At her current age, although she still has a childlike innocence, she has lost interest in these.

In addition to Qinghai Chuantang, Conan also stayed.

It's gray plain mourning, showing full interest. Maybe it's only at this time that she thinks she's a child.

"Na Xiaowai, let's go to the Ferris wheel together, okay?"

Ayumi pointed to the Ferris wheel not far away and excitedly proposed.

After getting the other party's consent, Ayumi excitedly took her hand and ran towards the Ferris wheel.

"Ayumi, Ashbara! Wait for us! ”

Motota and Mitsuhiko hurriedly chased after them.

"Huh, that man?"

Conan blinked, as if he had discovered something.

I saw a man in a light brown trench coat sitting on the Ferris wheel. Looking at his expression, there was some extreme reluctance.

Just as he finished speaking, an explosion was heard not far behind him, followed by the screams of the people.

When I looked back, I saw black smoke billowing from there.

The equipment of the amusement park was all stopped.

Seeing that the situation was not right, the two hurriedly ran towards the underground control room.

The device was blown out of a gap, and white smoke was billowing from it.

"What's going on?"

A gray-haired, middle-aged man in a suit walked down the stairs. He was followed by a man with a slightly higher hairline, who should be the secretary.

"President Mito, someone has planted a bomb here."

Shinsuke Mito was shocked, "It turns out that it wasn't a harassing phone call." ”

"Spam calls?"

"Ten minutes ago, someone called me"

"Mr. Mito, may I ask why you are here today?"

Although the question was asked by a child, for some reason, Shinsuke Mito had an inexplicable feeling that "all questions must be answered".

"The person in charge of the project and the project will come to inspect the park."

After finishing speaking, Shinsuke Mito looked at Hiroshi Hawka, who was talking on the phone behind him, "Have you contacted the mansion?" ”

Hiroshi Tamada shook his head.

Just then, Shinsuke Mito's cell phone rang, revealing an anonymous call.

"It's that guy again."

"Mr. Mito, please answer the phone and turn on the speakerphone so that we can hear him too."

Shinsuke Mito nodded.

"Hello?"

"I also put a bomb on the Ferris wheel, which is ten times more powerful than the bomb just now. Prepare a ransom of 300 million, and the employees of your company are also among the hostages. ”

"Don't talk nonsense!"

"In addition, it was made clear to the media that the construction of the factory was suspended and the enterprise team was evacuated."

The other person's voice was processed, sounding unusually dull and mechanical.

Faintly, it seems that other sounds can be heard.

Shinsuke Mito rejected the other party's request, "I can't accept this kind of request." ”

"If you don't obey my orders, then I'll detonate the bomb. The time limit is sunset today, and if you make a small move, the bomb will explode in no time. ”

"Hey, wait!"

Before Shinsuke Mito was about to say something, the other party hung up the phone.

On the white rod of the Ferris wheel, a black box is installed, which should be the detonating device.

Soon, the police arrived and began to evacuate the crowd so as not to cause more damage.

"The bomb in the control room should be operated remotely through a mobile phone. Among the threatening phone calls from the prisoners, there was music at the popcorn kiosks. In other words, the prisoner is now hiding somewhere in the park. ”

Judging from the chat content of the two calls, the prisoner should be a person who is very dissatisfied with Mito Heavy Industries, or has a grudge.

It is inevitable that disputes will arise at work.

"But if you say that you hate it to this extent, you really can't think of it."

When he said this, Shinsuke Mito kept his head slightly down.

"What if it's about building a factory on the site of this old amusement park? Any clues? ”

Shinsuke Mito's eyes flickered for a moment, obviously thinking of something, but he still said, "No." ”

"Is Mr. Otaku, a man in his 40s with a strong physique?"

Shinsuke Mito showed a puzzled expression, "Why do you ask that?" ”

Qinghai Chuantang took out his mobile phone, clicked on the camera function, adjusted the multiple, and handed it to the other party.

"Pod No. 12 of the Ferris wheel."

Shinsuke Mito took the phone suspiciously, and saw that a person could be clearly seen in the picture.

He was shocked, isn't this the mansion?

From Shinsuke Mito's reaction, Conan instantly understood why the other party's expression was a little wrong at that time. It should have been threatened by the prisoner that he sat in the Ferris wheel.

As for not being able to contact this, as long as you think that you are asked not to bring your mobile phone, it can be explained very well.

"So, let's leave first."

As he spoke, Qinghai Chuantang took back his mobile phone and put it in his pocket.

There are still 6 hours and 30 minutes before the explosion-

"Acquisition-related disputes?"

"Yes."

"Mito Heavy Industries' original plan was to renovate the amusement park and create a new entertainment venue. But suddenly he changed his mind and wanted to build a factory to make screws. ”

The employee rummaged through the materials as he spoke.

"There seems to be a lot of controversy within the company about this matter."

With that, the employee handed her the file.

When I opened it, I saw that the project content of the project was "high-performance screws".

Due to her height, even if Conan stepped on the bench, she couldn't directly see the plan in her hand.

"However, I heard that it was developed by a small street factory." After a general overview of the contents, Qinghai Chuantang handed the plan to Conan on the side.

The employee explained, "The street factory was acquired by Mito Heavy Industries. Mr. Otaku was the person in charge at the time. ”

When the news of high-performance screws was published in the newspapers, there were many inquiries about using them. As a result, Mito Heavy Industries changed its original plan and prepared to build a factory here.

"It seems to be a bomb operated by a mobile phone, and if there is any news, I will contact the company immediately."

Next to the black car on the side of the road, Hiroshi Takada was talking on the phone with his boss.

His phone was covered with a protective case with a small, clear grapefruit pattern on it.

After hanging up the phone, when Hiroshi Tamada turned around and was about to leave, he suddenly found that there were two people standing behind him, and he was almost scared out of the heart attack.

"What's the matter?"

"Mr. Takada, can you tell me where Mr. Takano Kuramoto, who resigned one month ago, lives?"

"Takaya?"

And Takano Kuramoto is the person in charge of the original plan to renovate the Hoshikai Amusement Park.

According to the address stated by the other party, the two found the apartment where Takano Kuramoto lived.

After knocking on the door, Takano Kuramoto thought that he was persuading himself to buy the newspaper, and was about to shake his head and say that he "didn't need it", when he was pushed away by Qinghai Chuantang and then broke in.

After checking the room, there didn't seem to be anything out of the ordinary.

"Hey, why just go into someone else's house! I'm going to call the police! ”

Takano Kuramoto aimed the umbrella at her, looking cautious.

"I'm sorry for what just happened."

After finishing speaking, Qinghai Chuantang bowed slightly to express his apology.

"Huh?"

Takano Kuramoto was stunned for a moment, a little incomprehensible.

After Conan's narration, he finally understood what was going on.

If he had done something unfortunate, it would have been impossible for Takano Kuramoto to be so unhesitant to say that he would call the police.

Takano Kuramoto poured two cups of tea to entertain them.

"It's impossible to say that President Mito has no idea. The plan that is basically determined is suddenly overturned, and whoever changes it will feel a little uncomfortable. ”

"Otaku is responsible for the supply of precision machine parts. Suddenly, one day, he mentioned to the president that there was a small factory that developed high-performance screws. ”

After that, a lot happened as well.

Takano Kuramoto took out a photo frame from the shelf on the side, which was a group photo of several people.

He pointed to one of the girls with pear blossom hair and said, "This is a member of our team, because of a bicycle accident. According to the police, it was while riding at night that there was a mistake in operating the grip. ”

"May I ask what her name is?"

"Kiyomatsu Natsuko."

Qinghai Chuantang thought about it and sent a text message to his friends on the road.

Time remaining, 4 hours and 35 minutes -

"Mr. Otaku is actually a hostage? His fiancée must have been frightened when she heard this. ”

"Is Mr. Otaku getting married?"

"Yes. And Mito Heavy Industries.,The president's daughter.。 ”

Because of the high-performance screws, the mansion naturally won the appreciation of his boss and deliberately wanted to promote him.

"I heard that this factory was acquired by Mito Heavy Industries a year ago?"

The director nodded and smiled, "Mr. Otaku likes the high-performance screws developed very much, and asked us if we want to join them." ”

When he walked to the screw exit, the factory director stopped. After taking out a screw from the basket and wiping it clean, he handed it to Qinghai Chuantang.

And explained, "This is the high-performance screws that our factory produces. ”

Unlike ordinary screws, high-performance screws are thicker and longer.

This high-performance screw has a considerable market value, so why not choose your own company to produce it?

Qinghai Chuantang asked the doubts in his heart.

The other party replied with a smile, "Because the purchase amount is very satisfying." ”

There are many things in the world that can be solved with money. If it can't be solved, it may require more money.

At this moment, Conan suddenly noticed that something seemed to be in the gap below.

He picked it up with a handkerchief and saw that it was a screw.

After leaving the factory, Conan compared the two screws and found that they were very different.

"The high-performance screws are made of iron and steel, while the screws made in this factory were made from aluminum."

And the latter looks no different from ordinary screws.

How can such an epoch-making screw be easily developed with completely different raw materials?

So, Conan came to a conclusion.

"This high-performance screw was not developed by Lingyao Precision Machinery."

However, Qinghai Chuantang's face was full of calm, and he didn't even have a moment of surprise.

Conan felt a little strange, "Isn't it, you've already seen it?" ”

Qinghai Chuantang shook his head and said seriously, "It's just that according to the plot in the film and television drama, there must be something strange in it." ”

Time remaining, 3 hours and 20 minutes -

The two of them were in the data room, looking through the invoice record book of the mansion.

If the high-performance screws are not from Lingyao Precision, they must be among the customers who have a close relationship with the mansion.

The mansion stole the data, got Ling Yao's essence weapon, and treated it as his own.

According to this line of thinking, only the question of "why didn't the stolen party sue Mito Heavy Industries" remains.

"Huh?"

Conan stopped abruptly, comparing himself to the notebook beside him.

"Mr. Otaku seems to go to this place called 'Korei Japanese Pastry Shop' a lot."

According to the navigation, the two came to the pastry shop together.

I took out a photo of the mansion and asked the manager if he had any impressions of it.

The manager is an elderly man.

He narrowed his eyes into a strip before he finally saw the man's face in the photo.

"For a while, he came here a lot, as if he wanted to deliver something to someone."

"Thank you. Is there a factory that manufactures screws in the area? ”

"Screws"

There is indeed such a factory nearby.

But when they arrived, there was a clearing left around them, apparently long since they had been relocated.

The two went to a nearby ramen shop to inquire about the situation.

The manager is an elderly woman with visibly loose skin, but she still looks very energetic.

In the photo, she is pictured with three employees in the factory.

"They and I came to Tokyo 50 years ago to work as a group."

"Kuroki and they, from the previous generation who didn't have children, took over the factory and worked as hard as they could. If you make your own screws and use them in something that makes people happy, you can make them proud. ”

The three of them are also very passionate about learning.

At the end of each day's work, I learn about screws and study them late.

Eventually, they succeeded in developing a sturdy screw.

"Is it a high-performance screw?"

"I don't know exactly what it is. It's just that they were shouting, 'Awesome screws have been made.'" ”

The women cheered, as if infected by the joy.

"But shortly after that, the factory caught fire. The research data of the screws is all gone. ”

The woman's expression instantly became sad and she sighed softly.

"Excuse me, what was the cause of the fire accident?"

"I heard that someone set the fire. However, no prisoners were found. Eventually, the land was taken away by the bank and everyone left the place. That amusement park, they used to be proud of. ”

The woman laughed and said, "I always say that the entertainment facilities inside are all made of their screws." ”

Just listening to the other party's narration, Qinghai Chuantang had already imagined the emotions of the three of them at that time, as well as the extremely proud looks on their faces.

Excitement, joy, pride, pride, but in the end, everything came to naught.

How can they not complain?

The TV on the wall of the ramen restaurant is playing the latest news, and it shows the image of the Ferris wheel of the amusement park.

"It is alleged that the prisoner caused a second explosion in order to intimidate the police, and the situation at the scene is very tense"
