Kenji Hagiwara tried to raise the corners of his lips, but the heaviness in his heart prevented him from even slightly bending them.

Realizing this, he simply stopped pretending to be calm and instead pursed his lips and whispered:

"If I had really died in that case seven years ago, Xiao Zhenping would definitely want to avenge me."

Of course, he is not the only one who wants to catch the murderer and avenge him. However, among the five of them, Morofushi Kagemitsu and Furuya Rei are both undercover, and the other one happens to be a criminal police officer who can track down the case, Date Kou, but is not in Tokyo. Therefore, if he wants to catch the person who blew him up, Matsuda Jinpei will definitely apply for a transfer.

Of course, the result will inevitably be suppressed by the boss.

But there was no way Jinpei Matsuda would give up.

Especially if the other party commits a crime again, then even if it is just to allow him to stay in the explosive ordnance disposal team, Matsuda Jinpei's superior will definitely agree to his request and transfer him temporarily to the Investigation Section 1, and then transfer him back after he catches the criminal.

As for the criminal...

The fact that he chose to detonate the bomb directly after witnessing the death of his accomplice is enough to show that he hated the police because of the death of his companion.

Plus, he managed to escape from the police.

In this situation, he will develop a feeling that he can fool and provoke the police, and even become addicted to wantonly manipulating other people's lives.

"So there are only two possible outcomes. One is that when the other party commits another crime, Xiao Zhenping seizes the opportunity to catch the criminal. The other is..."

He swallowed hard and was speechless for a moment.

Zhu Fu Jingguang also pursed his lips and managed to make a slightly dry sound.

"Secondly... he was trapped in the enemy's conspiracy. Not only did he fail to capture the person, but he also followed you and died at the hands of the enemy..."

If they faced the enemy head-on, neither Morifushi Kagemitsu nor Hagiwara Kenji believed that Matsuda Jinpei would lose.

And if the opponent was only using bombs as weapons, neither of them thought that Matsuda Jinpei would fail.

So if he lost, it must be because the other party used some despicable means, such as...

"Let Matsuda choose between himself and other innocent people."

"In that case, he would need to be alone in a confined space."

"Just use the warning letter, lure the police in with the bomb, and then cut off any outside rescue efforts..."

There are so many places like this that Kenji Hagiwara and Kagemitsu Morofushi can easily name a few.

"Matsuda couldn't give up on the rest of the people, so he had to choose to give up on himself."

"Doesn't that mean... doesn't that mean..." Doesn't that mean he will die too?

Hagiwara Kenji's brain had begun to go numb, his mind filled with the possibility that Matsuda Jinpei would also die. This made him feel like he was falling into an icy cave, and he subconsciously retorted:

"But maybe someone could catch the bomber outside the stadium? In that case, Jinpei-chan wouldn't have met that fate."

"That's right."

Zhu Fu Jingguang nodded.

but……

"If this world is truly a man-made world, and our existence is only to enrich the plot and the background of the main characters, then how do you think the author would design it?"

If we follow the creative idea, the appearance of Edogawa Conan is obviously the real beginning. If this case appeared today, seven years later, it must be a small copy for the protagonist to gain experience. In this case, Matsuda Jinpei might be able to survive by following him.

But if this case happened not today, but a few years ago...

It is impossible for the author to describe an unimportant case in great detail, so if it really happened a few years ago, it means that the murderer was not caught that time and is still at large, which will attract the protagonist to take action.

And if things were really as they guessed, then Matsuda Jinpei's death was inevitable.

"And I suspect Zero is also a member of the protagonist group."

Zhu Fu Jingguang whispered:

"First of all, Xiaokui likes Zero the most. So when our lives are in danger, Xiaokui will take action. It's impossible for her to remain silent when Zero is in danger. But the fact is that she has never taken care of Zero in the organization. This means that in her mind, Zero can survive until the end."

If this is the case, it can also explain why when she was "Middles", she obviously liked "Bourbon" so much, but still chose him to be her partner. What's more, she even used a bomb to kill two birds with one stone, not only bringing him out of the organization, but also directly leaving the organization.

This is enough to show that in her understanding, Furuya Rei could have lived safely until now.

Zhu Fu Jingguang paused and continued:

"So if we turn Kudo Shinichi into Edogawa Conan as the beginning of the plot, then those of us who died before the plot began, from a creative perspective, would just be a background board for the plot, or tools to enrich the relevant characters."

Because they were already dead when the plot began, they could not have been tools to provide clues to the protagonist. They could only be tools to enrich the protagonist's personality.

But whether it was Kenji Hagiwara and Kagemitsu Morofushi, or Kou Date and Jinpei Matsuda, they had no interaction with Kudo Shinichi before he rescued Kou Date, so there was no question of them leaving any special impression on the other party, making the other party still remember them several years later.
