Chapter 1020: 15 Minutes of Silence

A pickup truck was downstairs in the office, and cake factory employees in overalls hurriedly carried boxes upstairs.

"I'm sorry for the hard work," Gao Cheng took the box at the top of the staircase, "How is the factory over there?" ”

"Everything is going well," the employee looked at Gao Cheng expectantly, "and the rest is just waiting for the Chenghu detective to try it." ”

Gao Cheng opened the package in front of him, and inside were several kinds of cakes newly researched by the master of the original honey cake factory.

The new cake factory is managed by the Suzuki Foundation, and he has taken up the position of tasting consultant, after all, the new cake will be promoted in his name.

"Hmm," Gao Cheng took a bite, "It tastes pretty good, so let's do market research on the second sweet and sour flavor first, and it will almost be officially released after next month's "Dessert Expert". ”

"Thank you very much." The employee got a satisfactory answer, happily asked Gao Cheng to sign his name, and left in a small truck.

"I can eat cake openly in the future."

Gao Chengmu sent the truck away, and he was also very satisfied.

He had been looking forward to this cake factory for several days, from the beginning of December until the winter break arrived at the end of the month.

The operation of the cake factory was much more troublesome than he expected, and even with the ready-made skilled workers, there was still a lot to prepare.

The office TV has not yet been turned off, the news of the opening of the Toto Line No. 15 is still live, and the reporter is interviewing the governor of Asakura on a moving train.

"What? You say there's a bomb?! Twilight, who received a call from Kudo Shinichi nearby, suddenly changed his face.

"Stop the tram!"

"Stop! There are bombs! ”

Sato, who was near the cab, hurriedly called Takagi and rushed through the car to the outside of the cab to shout for a train outage.

The sound of emergency braking was heard in the tunnel, and at the same time, all the cars in the Shin-Bahru Tunnel below were stopped by Conan who was riding a skateboard.

A few seconds later, before it could stop, the front of the tram exploded violently, and a large hole was broken in the tunnel, and the tram completely lost control under the impact of the explosion and rushed into the lane below.

"Bang ——!"

"Huh?"

Gao Cheng returned to the office to feast on the rest of the cake, only to find that the news interview video had been interrupted, and the TV station somehow lost contact with the on-site reporters, so he had to temporarily switch to advertising time.

"What?"

……

In the conference room of the Metropolitan Police Department, the press conference is in progress.

"The gangsters used a plastic bomb and used a remote control to start the timer......"

At the meeting, in addition to the Minister of Crime, there were also Twilight, Shiratori, and the redundant Uncle Mori sitting on the rostrum, but only Twilight was speaking, and Uncle was sitting on the side.

For the press conference that he would be asked to attend, the uncle was at a loss until this meeting.

"According to Conan Edogawa, who witnessed the prisoner, the prisoner seems to have pressed the remote control switch after confirming that the subway was passing above, and the subway was traveling at a speed of 60 kilometers per hour, and the emergency stop bend where the prisoner was located was 250 meters away from the bomb......"

"Excuse me," a reporter asked, raising his hand, "who was the person who called Officer Twilight and asked to stop the tram?" ”

"Uh, that'......"

Twilight thought of Kudo Shinichi's request for confidentiality, and for a while she was a little stuck.

"We can only reveal that it was a partner of the police," replied Minister of Criminal Affairs Toshiro Odakiri, "In short, as a result, all the passengers in the car, including Governor Asakura, were unharmed, and besides, thanks to the help of Conan's children, no vehicles were affected by the explosion in the tunnel, which can only be described as a miracle." ”

"Why did that Conan kid notice the bomb?" A reporter asked.

"It's said that Mori Kogoro told him beforehand that there might be bombers." Twilight explained. Love books

"What a Maori detective."

"It's like a god."

The reporters present looked at the uncle in a daze with admiration, and continued to ask in the uncle's confused expression: "Mr. Maori, can you please express your opinion on the gangsters?" ”

"Huh?"

The uncle originally planned to mix up, but when he heard this, a cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and he couldn't refuse in the face of everyone's expectant eyes, so he could only cough calmly.

"The purpose of the criminal's crime this time is not only to take the life of Governor Asakura, but also to sabotage the major construction promoted by the governor in his second term, that is, the new subway line of Toei! All I can say is that his crimes are unforgivable! ”

"How much do you know about gangsters at the moment?"

"Uh......"

"It's a pity," Shiratori offered to help the uncle out of the road, "The surveillance installed in the tunnel did not capture the emergency stop corner where the gangsters were, and we speculate that the gangsters fled from the emergency escape exit to the main road on the ground through the ramp, but no witnesses have been found so far." ”

"Conan also said that he could not see the appearance and age of the gangsters, and the gender ......"

"The motive for the crime is supposed to be one-sided dissatisfaction and resentment with Governor Asakura's administration over the past four years, and our police will investigate in this direction."

"That's the end of the press conference."

Gao Chengcheng was at the scene, watching a few people get up and leave the table, and many reporters also dispersed one after another.

This case was indeed negligent on his part, he didn't expect it to really intersect with Conan like this, and the prisoner's hand was a bit big.

How bad is the bomb control in Conan World Japan?

"Brother Chengto," Twilight found Gao Cheng after the meeting, "let's go to the office and talk first, to be honest, I didn't expect things to develop like this, and the prisoner would choose to do something on the Eastern Capital Line." ”

"The motive is really just like what the threatening letter said," Gao Cheng wondered, "was it dissatisfaction with the administration of Governor Asakura during his first four years?" ”

"Governor Asakura's first term was really good, so he was re-elected, but after all, not everyone is satisfied, and there will always be people who are angry," Twilight pondered, "and the governor is unlikely to offend people in other ways." ”

"I think it's possible to cover up the real motive for the crime," Gao Cheng analyzed, "The timing of the threatening letter is too coincidental, just the day before the operation, why send the threatening letter at such a time?" In terms of criminal behavior, it is completely meaningless, and if you want to create panic, you can completely advance it for a while. ”

"Could it be because there is not much time left for the police to commit crimes?" Twilight said.

"It's still very problematic."

Gao Cheng shook his head.

"I don't understand, but if anyone really resents it, I think it may be when Governor Asakura was Minister of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism before, and during his tenure as minister, he moved a village to build a reservoir."

"You're talking about the Kitanosawa Reservoir, right?" Twilight crossed her fingers and sat down, "I know about this too, but at that time, Governor Asakura personally visited that village and prepared a high security deposit and a suitable alternative area.

In order to get the consent of the villagers, the governor stayed in the village for a week, talked with each of them, and finally became trusted by the villagers, and now it is developing very well. ”

"That's right," Gao Cheng nodded, "It's just that in the news reports at that time, it seems that some villagers still resolutely opposed it in the end...... I'm going to go to that village and investigate. ”

"It's good ......"

"Speaking of which," Takagi said, "next Sunday seems to be the fifth anniversary of the relocation of Shinhoku-no-sawa Village, and the governor originally planned to attend and stay overnight." ”

"The governor has already canceled the trip, so he must be worried about this," Twilight said in a deep voice, "Kitanosawa will trouble you, brother of the castle, and if it is really like your analysis, the reservoir may also be destroyed by the prisoners...... Let Takagi follow you. ”

"Huh?" Takagi pointed at himself in fright, "Me? But Officer Sato ......"

"What's wrong with Sato?" Twilight wondered.

"No, it's fine."

Takagi smiled sheepishly, his eyebrows twisted together in a worried expression.
