Chapter 223: You Wear Strange Glasses
After the bomb exploded, Shiraishi put away his gun and originally planned to rush back to his main body.
However, before leaving, he checked the taskbar and found that the task did not show completion, but the title was refreshed.
Now, it's a 1/4 of the way to the chain - after saving the bear child who dies every day, the progress bar is a quarter full, and there are three-quarters left.
The rewards for this set of tasks are generally very good.
Although Shiraishi was not very worried about the body, she thought that she would be able to help take care of it when she thought that there was Gray Yuan Wai next to the body, so she didn't rush back.
Otherwise, if you think about it again, you don't know how long it will take, and if you miss the clue, you will lose a lot.
The rest of the tasks are not explicitly stated in the taskbar.
Shiraishi looked around for a moment, and soon saw Conan, who had just arrived at the park.
I don't know what's going on, but it's not wrong to follow this semi-automatic task issuing machine.
He took on the form of a cat, and took advantage of the chaos to sneak up next to the Junior Detective Corps, and listened to what had just happened.
As Conan left, Shiraishi jumped on and rubbed his skateboard, which ran faster than a car in the city, and he didn't have to worry about losing Conan.
On the way, Conan did not forget to contact Dr. Asa and the police.
After receiving countless honks and angry scolding, Conan finally rushed to the rice flower station in violation of regulations.
He glanced at his watch, and there were about eight minutes left before the time of the explosion that the criminal had said.
The square in front of the station is very small, covering an area of only one or two hundred square meters, there is a fountain pool in the middle of the square, and there are many benches for tourists to rest around, and a few trees are planted in the most corners.
Conan arrives at the place, puts down the cat and picks up the skateboard. According to Teiji Moriya's prompt "under the tree", he went straight to the bottom of the tree, but found nothing.
Conan stopped without finding anything, and suddenly remembered something.
He turned his head and looked at the cat that was carefully grooming the fur while looking around the square, and when he saw that it had no intention of sniffing on the ground, he immediately sighed.
…… At this time, it would be nice if the fox was there. He remembered that in the past, on the Shinkansen, the fox used to sniff out the location of the bomb. Looking for bombs, it seems that foxes are better at it.
Black cats should know this too, so ...... Why did he only send one cat?
Could it be that foxes have other uses, such as tracking down other lost explosives?
No, wait......
Thinking of this, Conan suddenly remembered that the time he found the cat was after the skateboard had traveled some distance.
Perhaps the truth is that while in the park, the fox also wanted to hitchhike like a cat, but he didn't have time to jump on the skateboard......
Conan looked back at the fox's quiet and gentle chirping appearance, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that he might have seen through the truth.
…… If you knew this, you should have taken a look at the ground before you left.
Now there are only a few minutes left, and it's too late to go back and look for it.
Conan regretted it very much.
But at this point, I can only try my best to find clues.
He intends to find a high point and take a global view.
While looking for a high point, Conan stumbled upon the black cat parked in front of a bench, and then it peered under the stool.
On that bench sat a young couple.
Conan walked over suspiciously, and saw a bag under the bench, which was supposed to be the couple's luggage.
If you look closely, you can also see a beautiful little white cat in the bag.
The white cat rubbed the grid door, its aqua blue eyes looked out warmly, and after looking at it for a while, it said to the black cat's delicate and thousands of turns "meow~".
The tip of the black cat's ears twitched, and it took another step closer to the cat bag.
"......" Conan's forehead slid down two black lines, and he reached out to take away the black cat that seemed to be bewitched by beauty.
But as soon as his hand moved, the black cat suddenly stepped forward amid the screams of the couple and hooked the cage door.
Conan was startled, and while risking being scratched to catch the cat, he apologized to the couple hiding next to him with a dry smile, "It's been boring for too long, and I want to play with a companion, I'm sorry." ”
"Companions? That one has a cat in it? The girl curiously pressed down on her long skirt, squatted down, and looked under the bench.
Conan was stunned and turned his head to look at her, "That's not your bag!?" ”
The couple was taken aback by his serious tone, looked at each other for a moment and shook their heads, "When we came, the bag was already there." ”
Conan's eyes suddenly changed as he looked at the cat bag.
Just now, he actually saw this bag.
But as a rule of thumb, timed explosives dropped by criminals in public are usually packed in ownerless bags.
Someone sat on this bench before, and considering that many people would put large luggage under the stool in order not to trip over others when waiting for the bus, Conan thought that this bag was owner, and from the beginning, it was not considered.
Now suddenly hearing the "owner" of the bag say this, Conan suddenly couldn't sit still.
He cautiously climbed under the bench and looked at the bag, where he saw a sticky note with the words written on it
"Please take it with a good Samaritan."
Teiji Moriya's warning that "if you don't hurry up, someone else will take it", suddenly appeared in Conan's mind, and the suspiciousness of the cat bag rose again.
Conan subconsciously glanced at the black cat who first found the cat bag, and found that the cat happened to be looking at him as well, and the dark golden pupils contained very obvious contempt, as if he was stamping Conan with a "yellow waste" stamp.
"......" Conan found that he was stared at by a cat.
At the same time, he finally figured out the code given by the mysterious man
"Under the tree", generally refers to the root of the tree, nekonn.
This is very similar to the cat pronunciation neko.
And even cats react this way...... Can't be wrong, the bomb is definitely here!
Conan carefully removed the box and opened the cage door.
The white cat came out of it, stretched on the ground, and was about to stick it on the black cat, when it was suddenly picked up by a pair of hands stretched out next to it, and the couple just wanted to adopt a cat, and saw the message on the bag, and the two happily took the cat away.
Conan opened the lid of the bag and looked inside, revealing that at the bottom of the bag, a simple time bomb was tightly taped to it, with a countdown of 6 minutes and 32 seconds on it.
The time remaining is not too little. Conan had learned about bomb disposal in Hawaii and felt that the bomb was not difficult to defuse.
He breathed a sigh of relief and ran to the convenience store across the road, intending to buy a pair of scissors.
The citizens of Rice Flower are simple, although there are many homicides, but stealing bags and snatching bags is not too common, and Conan is very relieved to leave.
Shiraishi looked at his back, leaned over to the mouth of the bag, and glanced inside.
Under normal circumstances, if the bomb maker is determined to explode, the bomb will be very difficult to dismantle, and it is easier to destroy or detonate it than to dismantle it.
But the criminals of this world are unexpectedly very principled.
At least, judging from the style and structure of the bomb in front of me, it seems that it was made for the purpose of making people dismantle.
Shiraishi examined the intricate wires for a moment, slipped into his bag, and summoned the steel hook.
