Conan: I'm really not a model worker at a winery

Matsuda Jinpei's proposal was naturally passed unanimously, not to mention that was their original plan.

Police officer Megure immediately informed the mobile team to investigate the Tokyo Tower, trying to investigate without causing panic among tourists.

Of course, if no trace of the bomb is found in the end, for the sake of safety, the tourists may have to be evacuated...

However, the opening hours of Tokyo Tower are not long, and it will be closed at midnight.

Therefore, except for Takagi, everyone else is very suspicious of whether this location is correct-the bombing of the Tokyo Tower at midnight is really pure fireworks, right?

It has no deterrent effect on the citizens at all!
Very unlikely to be an option for explosives.

After the preliminary exchange, the first search section was the same as the second search section, except for those who remained on duty, almost all the staff were mobilized.

Miwako Sato and Rensaburo Shiratori are in a group, Jinpei Matsuda is in a group with Tsuru Takagi, and Police Officer Megure is working with another police officer who is a supplementary police officer in the class.

They won't stay in the Metropolitan Police Department until the clues are completely cracked before taking action. If the location is too far away from the Metropolitan Police Department and they can't arrive immediately, then it will be over.

Three groups of people are in charge of three major areas. Except for a few districts near the Tokyo Tower, other people search around the central district. Of course, they don't necessarily have to run to every place. After all, the local police are not completely for display. .

It was almost nine o'clock when the group set off.

It was less than three hours before the time the criminals announced, but none of the four bombs had seen their shadows yet, adding a layer of gloom to the already dark night...

When Police Officer Megure had just driven to the port area, the phone rang suddenly.

It was Takagi Tsutomu calling:
"Mu, Mu Mu police officer! The headquarters said that the prisoner gave another hint!"

"What?!"

"The prisoner said that setting off fireworks and firecrackers is prohibited in the urban area... is it a reminder??"

Hearing Gao Mushe's voice, he was obviously also very confused.

Police officer Mumu followed closely behind: "???"

Fireworks and firecrackers banned in urban areas?What do you mean?
The voice of Matsuda Jinpei was faintly heard on the other end of the phone: "There are two possibilities. One is that the bomb installed by the prisoner is not in the urban area. The second is that the prisoner may have hidden the bomb in a place where open flames are prohibited in the urban area."

At this time, Takagi also left the phone, "But Matsuda-senpai, the urban area...doesn't seem to be any places where naked flames are prohibited?"

"...Silly, do you think the enemy like the park can be fireproof?"

"Eh? Eh! That's right, Matsuda-senpai! Isn't one of the locations 'Under the Cherry Blossom Tree'? Doesn't that mean you just need to check all the places in Tokyo that have cherry blossom trees?"

"No, the range can be smaller...Actually, the prisoner's latest reminder may have to be read in reverse, that is, 'places in the urban area that are prone to fire disasters and have cherry blossoms...'"

"Oh! Matsuda-senpai is right..."

The communication between the two people was transmitted to the ears of Police Officer Megure through the phone.

As soon as he heard about the cherry blossom trees and the enemy who was prone to fire, a place name inexplicably popped up in Officer Megure's mind.

However, just when he was about to say something, Takagi on the opposite side directly... hung up the phone!
beep--

"..."

The long beep sounded like it was mocking him.

Police Officer Megure: Let Takagi write the inspection report when we go back!
……

"Hey, Officer Megure, it's me."

Cupido Town.

Miwako Sato, who happened to be here on inspection, received a call from Police Officer Megure.

It was almost after Officer Megure was hung up on the phone, he called Sato the news about the 'fireworks' that he was not drunk.

but……

"...Well, Matsuda has already called me to tell me about the prisoner's reminder, and we are planning to rush to Tedan High School..."

Miwako Sato answered very neatly.

While speaking, Shiratori Rensaburo had already passed the last street of Kabado-cho and entered the boundary of Mihua-cho.

Like Police Officer Megure, because she has dealt with cases here in Mihua Town for many years, when she is reminded of cherry blossoms and flammable and explosive places, she immediately thinks of... Didan High School.

It's not because Didan High School's fire prevention measures are not good.

It was because there was a cherry blossom tree planted in the corner of the back door of the school, and the bomber who was caught by Matsuda Jinhei last time planned to blow up the Teidan school, but because they discovered it in time, they failed to let the other party succeed...

Isn't this flammable and explosive?

Furthermore, they are more familiar with places in the urban area with cherry blossom trees, and only Didan High School is the most suitable place to be targeted.

Other places with cherry blossom trees are basically the countryside or parks. Anyway, the location is very remote, and there is no one at all at night...

...but then again.

No one is here at Didan High School at night!
Miwako Sato doubted the accuracy of this location, but there was really no better choice now.

After infiltrating Teidan High School openly and aboveboard with the help of the police manual, Miwako Sato and Ren Saburo Shiratori immediately commanded a team they led to search the school.

The light of the flashlight illuminates the dark campus, but it looks a little weird at night.

The gorgeous cherry blossom trees in the daytime look a bit strange at night, the breeze blows by, causing the flower branches to tremble and caress, and the "rustling" sound will always arouse Miwako Sato's mind, making her look up at these pink and white petals from time to time .

For some reason, she felt an uncontrollable palpitation in her heart...

It was as if something bad was about to happen.

Miwako Sato couldn't help but caressed her chest where she had been shot, and searched for suspicious places near her. After finding nothing unusual, she walked to the side of Rensaburo Shiratori, "How is it? Did you find anything else?"

Shiratori Ren Sanlang exchanged glances with several police officers who had returned without success, and shook their heads, "There's nothing here."

With the light of the flashlight, it can be seen that in the corner, the soil under the cherry blossom trees has been turned up, and some police officers climbed onto the fence, but nothing was found.

Miwako Sato raised her head, and the flashlight was also turned on.

Suddenly, she noticed that there seemed to be something reflecting light on the branches of the cherry tree.

"what is this?"

Standing on tiptoe, she reached for the shiny thing on the branch.

—a pocket watch.

There was also a note stuck to it.

Out of caution, Miwako Sato did not tear off the pocket watch, but tried to distinguish the writing on the note:

"Please, look at...the time on the watch?"

"...What?" Shiratori Ren Sanlang next to him leaned over in a daze.

"'Please look at the time on the watch'." Miwako Sato pointed to the note, her face a little ugly, "Shiratori, can you see the time on that pocket watch?"

Shiratori Ren Sanlang raised his head: "Let me see... 27:[-]."

Miwako Sato turned her head, "What time is it?!"

"Ah? It's now, nine twenty-six..."

After Shiratori Ren Saburo finished speaking, he immediately realized something.

Wait... This pocket watch is suspended, could it be the detonation time of the bomb! ?

He suddenly felt that the temperature around him seemed to drop a few degrees.

The second hand on the watch has less than ten steps left, and it will pass 12 characters!

"Everyone! Get off that wall!!"

Miwako Sato didn't bother to verify whether her guess was correct, she shouted, took three steps in two, pulled the two police officers over, and ran towards the door by herself.

- Crack!

The pocket watch hanging on the branch of cherry blossoms made a slight muffled sound. At this time, the second hand in Shiratori Ren Saburo's hand also passed '12', which happened to be stuck at 27:[-].

The next moment, the few people with their backs to the cherry tree only felt a wave of heat emerging from behind, and the sense of crisis in their hearts made them choose to lie down on the ground immediately.

"boom--!!!!"

The wall beside the cherry blossom tree was blown apart in an instant, and the cherry blossom trees beside the wall were inevitably engulfed by flames, and not a single cherry blossom survived.

Simply, they are all fine.

Miwako Sato got up from the ground as soon as the explosion subsided, took out her mobile phone, and prepared to report the incident to Police Officer Megure.

can.

But she saw a figure that shouldn't be here through the wall and smoke that had been blasted through.
