Chapter Eighty-Seven—Indiscriminate Threats
"Uhh
"Chiba," Conan looked at the soccer ball as well. "You saw that too, right? That soccer ball seems to be all of a sudden..."
"Deflated?" Qian Yu also looked incredible. "What's the situation?"
"Even if it's sunburned, it shouldn't be deflated like this..."Conan frowned. I'll go down and take a look. ”
"Go down?" Qian Yu was slightly stunned, but saw that Conan had already jumped through the gap in the railing. "Hey, hey, hey... You..."
"Little brother?" The staff on the side were shocked. "How do you..."
"My hat is off!" Conan said perfunctorily as he looked at the ground. Suddenly, he took out a knife from his arms and began to use the knife to cut the plastic floor!
"What is he doing?" Gray Plains, who put on his sunglasses again, leaned on Qian Yu, whose figure suddenly froze, and used him as a cover, looking at Conan below, and asked.
Feeling the warm breath on his shoulder, Qianyu's brain froze for a moment, and only reacted after restarting. Forehead... Conan probably found something on the plastic floor... To be honest, I feel like it could be ... ”
"What are you doing, kid?" The staff picked up Gray Yuanai's hat and was about to return it to Conan, but found that he was actually using a knife to destroy the plastic floor, and hurriedly ran over and hugged Conan.
“。。。” Directly above them, Thousand Feathers looked at Conan in silence - in Conan's hand, a cone-shaped copper-colored object stood out. If Chiba didn't guess wrong, it was most likely a warhead.
。。。
"Did you find a bullet?" When Conan was put back by the staff, Qian Yu stepped forward and asked.
"Yes." Conan frowned and showed the warhead in his hand to Chiba.
7.62 mm diameter, but length to be determined.
"I suspect it's a bullet from Tokarev's pistol." Conan took a closer look at the shape of the warhead. "It's not very standard, but it's supposed to be Tokarev's bullet."
“。。。” Chiba asked for the bullet and watched carefully.
Round head, copper-colored, with two protruding belts on the surface of the warhead... This is a 51-1 pistol cartridge from the Far Eastern Republics! (Despite the name pistol cartridge, this is designed for submachine gun cartridges.) Due to the design features, the bullet is equipped with twice the amount of propellant, so it has a strong armor-piercing ability, and its structure also allows the bullet to save a lot of valuable copper. By the way, the reason why Conan took this bullet as Tokarev's bullet was because the 51-1 pistol cartridge was originally an imitation of Tokarev's pistol cartridge. )
However, Chiba did not say this, because the difference between Tokarev's bullet and the 51-1 pistol bullet is clearly not the focus of attention now.
"Are you going to call the police now?" Qian Yu asked.
"Yes," Conan nodded. "We must call the police immediately!"
"Kids!" At this moment, a middle-aged man ran over. "Kids!"
“?” Both Conan and Chiba looked at the middle-aged man.
"Kids!" The middle-aged man ran over and said hurriedly. "Did you find a bullet on the field?"
"Your Excellency?" Thousand Feathers frowned.
"Huh? Oh! "The middle-aged man just remembered that he hadn't reported himself yet." I'm the director of this game, Kaneko. ”
"What the hell is going on?" Conan asked.
"Hmm..." Kaneko looked embarrassed, and after a moment lowered his head and whispered to the two of them. "Don't tell anyone what I tell you!"
"We were intimidated and he threatened to ask us to prepare a ransom or else there would be an attack on the stadium." After Kaneko finished speaking, he thought about it and said again. "You guys come with me to the broadcast room first, and wait for the police to come."
"Hey," Chiba whispered to Conan, following behind Kaneko. "Are you sure he's okay? What if he's the shooter? ”
"Even with a silencer, it's impossible for the neutral stands to be completely inaudible to the gunshots," Conan replied with a smile. "So the shooter must have been in the stands of the Kawasaki Green or the Hiroshima Three Arrows. Considering that Togarev's range is not very far, it should be the Kawasaki Green diehard stand on our side. I picked up the bullet and immediately joined you, and Mr. Kaneko came from the opposite direction of the die-hard stand, and if he was really in the die-hard stand when he was shooting, he wouldn't have had time to rush over. ”
"Okay... Qian Yu pursed his lips.
After coming to the broadcast hall, Chiba and Conan waited for a while, and finally waited for the police, but-
"Officer Twilight?" Qian Yu was a little surprised. "Isn't this the realm of Kanagawa?"
"But this is the northernmost point of Kanagawa, on the border with Tokyo," Officer Twilight said, pulling his hat. "We've reached an agreement with the Kanagawa Prefectural Police that we're in charge of handling it — not to mention, it's a request from the Yomiuri Group."
"Yomiuri... Qian Yu was slightly stunned, but quickly reacted and smiled self-deprecatingly. "I almost forgot about the relationship...
Kawasaki Green, formerly known as Kawasaki Yomiuri, formerly known as the Yomiuri soccer team, is a member of the Yomiuri Group (in 1998, the Yomiuri Group shrank its funds to focus on baseball, and Kawasaki Green was restructured into a new company), so as a member of the Yomiuri Group in Tokyo, Yomiuri TV was able to grab the live broadcast rights of Kawasaki Green stationed in Kawasaki. Since the Yomiuri Group's industry is in trouble, it is only natural that the elites of the Tokyo Metropolitan Government should solve the crisis.
"Well, I'm the director Kaneko," Kaneko said as she walked over to Chiha, who understood and handed the bullet to Officer Twilight. "I was working at the time, but I received a call from an unknown person, who said that he wanted to give me a proof, so he asked me to see under the six children in the second section of the neutral stand, and the football suddenly went flat, and someone must have shot in the arena."
"This bullet... Officer Twilight made a look. "It seems to be a modified Tokarev bullet?"
It's a 51-1 pistol bullet! The corners of Chiha's mouth twitched.
"Anyway, he threatened..." Gold's face turned pale. "If we can't prepare a ransom of 50 million before the end of the first half and put it where he asks for it, he... He'll shoot indiscriminately in the arena! ”
"Indiscriminate shooting?" Qianyu's brow furrowed.
First of all, judging from the action of asking for 50 million, the suspect's idea is very direct, that is, to ask for money, because this money is completely within the power of the Yomiuri Group. Secondly, the magazine of Tokarev's pistol is not large, and the number of people who can do it is really limited. Coupled with the fact that he should be sitting next to die-hard fans, who are a group of absolute passionate fans, the ability of guns to deter their pursuit of justice is really debatable. In other words, if you sit in the fan zone, most of the suspects won't want to leave.
In addition, it is impossible for fans to use a weapon that can be used as a bullet if they don't bring a wooden hard object like Conan's self-made ironwood knife, which Chiba gave to Conan for his birthday a few days ago. But if it's those who can legally carry metal instruments and never be subject to too strict scrutiny...
The corners of Chiba's mouth hooked.
