Chapter 731

But this time there were some differences, namely the explosion that seriously injured Officer Shiratori yesterday, and the fake bombs placed on various trains on the Touto Line.

If the former still had the intention of revenge and demonstration, the latter was a bit strange.

Since it was a trap, there was no reason to set up such a confusing formation.

The strangest thing was that the explosion warning time this time was actually set to the next day, as if there was some special reason.

Conan re-examined the explosion warning.

It was indeed set to the next day, not yesterday, which had special significance.

If the criminal had a reason for having to choose tomorrow, today's warning-type explosion and the confusing formation did have some reasons.

Is it because of the baseball game?

But today is not any special day, because it's not the baseball season, and there are no large-scale baseball games that can become the criminal's target of attack.

Conan scratched the back of his head.

The reason he had the biggest headache with codes and the like was because codes were too subjective.

However, it wasn't impossible to solve; the password was the thinking and action pattern of the code designer themselves; the more you understand the code designer, the easier it is to solve the code.

Return to the origin.

Looking at the fax from 3 years ago, the location of the first bomb should be easy to guess.

The key is "steel strike zone" and "blood-stained pitcher's mound," as well as the meaning of "major league player" and "extra innings" at the beginning.

Damn, I can't deduce it at all!

"This concerns the lives of 12 million people in Tokyo."

"No, I can't be led by the nose by the criminal like this."

In the driver's seat, Sato Miwako also said in a low voice.

She took out her mobile phone, hesitated for a while, and finally dialed Akaso Kaze's number.

Ever since Akaso Kaze solved her father's case last time, Sato Miwako's heart had actually been placed on him.

But there was still a figure in Sato Miwako's heart that always lingered, forcing her to keep avoiding Akaso Kaze.

That figure was Matsuda Jinpei, who sacrificed himself in the bombing case three years ago.

Now that the criminal had appeared again, using 12 million people in Tokyo as hostages, she had to dial Akaso Kaze's number again.

"Akaso-san, long time no see..."

"Yes, Miwako, how have you been lately?"

A gentle voice came from the phone, making Sato Miwako's eyes ache.

She really wanted to throw herself into Akaso Kaze's arms right now and have a good cry.

She steadied herself and still explained the situation of the case.

Huh? It's that case.

Akaso Kaze immediately remembered.

He felt it was a bit familiar when he saved Shiratori Ninzaburo yesterday, and today, after hearing Sato Miwako's narration, he immediately understood.

"The bomb is in the elevator of the Touto Tower."

"What? Touto Tower?!"

Hearing the words coming from the phone, Conan's eyes instantly lit up.

That's right, why didn't I think of that.

Steel and red, the warning refers to the Touto Tower!

"It's too far away, I'm afraid it's too late."

Sato Miwako frowned and looked at the tall tower in the distance.

There was a considerable distance from there, and the road was still congested; she definitely wouldn't be able to make it by the scheduled time.

"Don't worry, I'm here."

A voice suddenly sounded in her ear and on the phone at the same time.

Sato Miwako turned her head in surprise; Akaso Kaze was outside the car, with a bright smile on his face.

At this moment, his smile replaced the shadow in Miwako's heart.

Akaso Kaze pulled Sato Miwako out of the car, opened a Space Gate, and left the spot.

Only Conan was left in the car, sitting in the back row, blankly looking at the documents and muttering: "How did this guy know?"

"He didn't look at any documents, just heard Officer Sato say two sentences and deduced it?"

"This is too un-Conan-science."

"Officer Sato, you ask him... huh? Where are the people?"

Conan raised his head and was instantly dumbfounded.

He ran out of the car and took a look; where was Sato Miwako's figure anymore.

"It's not good to just leave me behind like this."

"I'm still a child!"

Touto Tower, the elevator leading to the main observation deck.

Akaso Kaze and Sato Miwako suddenly appeared in the elevator.

Seeing tourists about to walk in, Sato Miwako hurriedly stopped them.

"I am a police officer, there is a bomb in this elevator, everyone get out quickly."

At this moment, the hands of the watch pointed exactly to 9:45, and time also solidified at this moment.

"Boom!" The explosion was deafening.

Akaso Kaze hugged Sato Miwako.

A Space Gate appeared in the direction of the explosion, blocking all the shockwaves.

He didn't remember the exact explosion time, so he arrived at an inconvenient time and didn't have time to collect the bomb before it exploded.

After the elevator car made a harsh friction sound, it stopped in mid-air, and the elevator lights also went out.

"Akaso-san, are you hurt?"

Sato Miwako touched his body worriedly.

In the darkness, Akaso Kaze curled his lips.

I was originally fine, but I'm a bit not fine after being touched by you.
