Chapter 268 - Tokyo Tower
"School..." Qian Yu nodded. "Makes sense, but the question is, which school is it?"
"I hope it's not like the previous case... Gray Yuan Ai holds the materials of the case three years ago in one hand. "Trade your life for a second explosion site or something... It's scary. ”
"What if, after all, you think about the last paragraph of the letter." The corners of Chiha's mouth twitched. "Even if you have a good pitcher, it doesn't work, because I'm going to come back in the end...
"Even if you have good bomb disposal ability, it's useless, because I'll make you afraid to let you defuse the bomb in the end?" Conan said with a frown. "It's possible, I'm afraid it will be like this in the end."
"That means that the second blasting site is the school, and the exact school will be given by the bomb at the first blasting site..." Chiba looked at the last paragraph of the letter. "I guess it has something to do with the last part."
"You cops are here to crawl on the blood-soaked pitch..." Conan had just read a short paragraph of the last part before he stopped and looked at Chiba. "Qianyu, you read it, I want to see how you translate."
"You cops come and climb the blood-coated mound, and I'll be waiting for you in the blood-red bat-player's box?" Chiba tried to translate.
"Bright red mounds, blood-red boxes for batters." Conan refined. "That's what the attackers were trying to say."
"Where is the bright red mound... Gray Plains frowned. "How can a mound be red unless it's iron-rich?"
"I don't think it's a mound, unless there's really something that's particularly famous among other people, but we don't know about it... Qian Yu shook his head. "I guess I'm referring to something, after all, he wrote this letter and certainly wouldn't have deliberately prevented us from finding the first explosion point he wanted us to go to. And he will definitely choose a place that we are familiar with, but not particularly easy to think of, to plant the bomb. ”
"Wait a minute," Qian Yu suddenly thought of something. "If you say red clay, will it be Xingya Guanyin? If I remember correctly, Matsui Ishine was originally made of red clay from Nanjing, and the statue of Xingya Guanyin was made. ”
"It's unlikely that Koya Kannon Temple," Conan shook his head. "First of all, Koya Kannon-in Temple is in Shizuoka Prefecture, which is too far from here. Second, because of the bomb attack by left-wing groups in 1971, the Koya Kannon-in Temple has set up a very complete monitoring system, and it is almost impossible for the perpetrators to succeed. Wait a minute... ”
"If that stopper is a baseball term," Conan snapped back. "Could it be that this red mound is just for the baseball theme?"
"Attached?" Gray Plains tilted his head. "You mean to say that maybe the target point only fits into a certain part of the word red mound?"
"There aren't a lot of people in places where there are mounds, and even if they plant bombs, they won't be particularly reliable." Conan shook his head. "It's true that I'm leaning towards red."
"Wait a minute," Qian Yu suddenly thought of something. "Red, popular, hill-like bulge... Have you ever thought of a landmark? ”
"Tokyo Tower?" Conan reacted immediately. "Possibly! Tokyo Tower is indeed red, and the batsman's blood-red box may refer to the elevator of Tokyo Tower! ”
"Possibly," Gray Plains nodded. "Tokyo Tower is in line with what was established three years ago – you can plant a bomb on the elevator that stops the elevator and then a bomb that can blow up the entire elevator car and the police officer who defuses the bomb inside."
"We can't let this incident be like it was three years ago," Conan said, standing up. "Let's go talk to Officer Twilight and ask him to take someone to search the elevator in Tokyo Tower."
"Well, we-uh..." Qianyu's face suddenly became a little strange, and he looked at the sunset outside the window before saying. "We seemed to be looking at the materials and studying them for hours... Later, I'll inform Officer Twilight of the location and go home... It's really tiring to think about so many things... ”
"And you're hungry, aren't you?" Gray Plains mourns and rolls his eyes.
"I didn't eat lunch, and if I wasn't hungry, I wouldn't be hungry, right?"
。。。 After reporting their inferences to Officer Twilight...
"And now you have to send the police to send us back?" Looking at Officer Twilight, Chiba said in surprise. "I thought all the police force I could get out of place was already being used for dragnet searches."
"Because your inferences are basically self-consistent, the previous theories that bombs were in baseball stadiums like Tokyo Dome based on baseball jargon are close to being falsified, so I'm going to withdraw some of those police officers and send you back with the reserve police force that remained in the Metropolitan Police Department." Officer Twilight replied. "You have done a very good job, and on behalf of me, I would like to express my sincere gratitude to you."
。。。
Qian Yu and the others went downstairs, and sure enough, they saw a man with glasses in a green suit sitting on the engine cover of a car, looking like he was waiting for them.
"Tachibana, Ashbara, and Edogawa, right?" After seeing the three of them, he walked over to them.
“!!!” Qian Yu was stunned, because he knew this person, and this person was not from the Metropolitan Police Department at all!
This guy was the one they met when they followed Gregory to the police station to treat the patient who had suffered from selenium poisoning because he ate too many Brazilian chestnuts, and they met the "Brazil Nuts" who had changed the location of the patient from Brazil to Bolivia!
No matter how much power Officer Twilight has in the search section and three departments, it is impossible to mobilize the people from the National Police Agency, and it is impossible for the people from the National Police Agency to ask Officer Twilight to assist them in this matter.
Wait a minute, this guy in green can't be the traitor's henchman, planning to spy on them, right? If that's the case, you're in big trouble ...
"Yes." Conan nodded.
"Tell me your address, and I'll send you back." The man in sunglasses motioned for them to take the back seats.
"If you're going to send us back, can I dare to change our destination?" After getting into the car, Qian Yu asked. "We're going to go to the supermarket to buy some things, so we're not going home for the time being."
"Huh?" A hint of astonishment flashed across Kazami's face, but he quickly returned to normal. "Or I'll wait for you to come out?"
"Excuse me," the corners of Qianyu's mouth twitched. "We're going to buy it for a long time."
“。。。” Kazami hesitated for a moment, then finally nodded. "Okay, so which supermarket are you going to?"
After thinking for half a second, Qian Yu gave the address of a large supermarket about two kilometers away from his home - this supermarket has many exits, and it is impossible for Kazami to completely block it alone.
"Okay." Kazami glanced down, then grabbed the steering wheel with his right hand and started the car.
