Chapter 736 There is one more person

Around 9:10 PM.

Heiji Hattori and Conan arrived at the Red Castle Hotel.

Kogoro Mouri arrived two or three minutes earlier than them. He had just begun his deduction when the two interrupted him.

Although their original intention was to prevent Kogoro Mouri from making a wrong deduction that would put him in danger.

Seeing Takada pass out from blocking the tranquilizer dart, Hattori Heiji silently picked up an ashtray and knocked out Mori Kogoro as well.

They glanced at the hidden door that had opened by mistake because they hadn't pressed the right button, exchanged a look, and each took an axe and a shield before going inside.

It was almost 9:30 by then.

There is still half an hour until the explosives inside the ID detonate.

After they went inside, a white figure appeared out of thin air in the living room, knocked Shimizu Reiko unconscious as she pushed open the door, took the gun from her hand, and then stepped into the secret passage.

By this time, the two detectives had almost finished reasoning through the case.

The person in the platinum cloak chuckled and clapped with obvious appreciation, "Truly worthy of being two famous detectives from Kansai and Kanto, your reasoning is excellent."

The two who were about to have Ito Suehiko remove everyone's IDs turned around instantly upon hearing the voice, their pupils shrinking.

The man threaded his finger through the trigger hole of the pistol and swung it around in circles. "Don't be nervous. I'm just here to tell you something interesting. Want to hear it?"

They instinctively felt this wasn't a good thing, but they couldn't ignore it.

"What's up?"

"Ah, that's right. I had Takada modify the ID program. The IDs that were supposed to explode at 10:00 have been changed to 10:10 now. Now, simply removing the IDs here won't work. We need to dismantle them and throw them far away."

As he spoke, he tossed the pistol up and down playfully, his tone full of amusement.

"What did you say!?"

The two were instantly horrified.

"So, you'd better hurry and run to your loved ones. There are only 31 minutes left until the explosion. I'm really looking forward to seeing how you'll dismantle the ID."

After glancing at the person leisurely leaning against the wall, Heiji Hattori and Conan exchanged a look, gritted their teeth, and rushed out of there. On the way, Conan didn't forget to call Professor Agasa, who had gone to the children's place.

After they left, the man glanced at Ito Suehiko, who had fainted due to his physical condition, chuckled, and also left the dark room.

Then Takada was woken up and asked to carry Kogoro Mouri to the fantasy park where Ran Mouri and the others were.

Even before the story began, Kita Aya had already hypnotized him during her visit here.

He went up to the balcony and looked out over the entire fantasy park.

Kogoro Mouri, Ran Mouri, Conan, Heiji Hattori, Kazuha Toyama, Ai Haibara, the Teitan trio, Chizuru...

There were ten people wearing IDs that looked like they were going to explode.

After a moment's thought, he jumped from a height of several dozen stories, stopping the Phantom Thief Kid who had rushed over to check the situation.

The expression on Kaito Kid's face when he saw him was different from the last time. It was obvious that he had planted a listening device on Conan and had heard what he had just said.

The gentleman didn't mind, smiled, and took out another diamond and placed it in his hand.

"This one can be used four times with magic. You can use it as long as you hold it in your hand."

Seeing his puzzled look, the gentleman explained casually, "Those IDs can only be removed with magic."

Kaito Kid: ! !

He slightly opened his eyes and instantly felt that the diamond in his hand had turned into a hot potato.

Why...why did you do this?

He asked the question with some difficulty.

"Why? Of course, it's because I find this kind of thing very interesting," the man said nonchalantly, then quietly reminded him, "There are only twenty-five minutes left until the explosion."

Kaito Kid gripped the diamond tightly in his hand and rushed towards where Conan and the others were.

Before he arrived, Chizuru stood up and walked to Inspector Megure's side, whispered something to him, and then left after receiving permission.

The only people present were Inspector Megure and other police officers, as well as Ran Mouri and others wearing ID cards.

Inspector Megure and his team have learned from Professor Agasa that the bomb's detonation method has been changed, and they are now urgently contacting the bomb disposal team.

Dr. Agasa is also trying to remove the IDs from their hands, but no matter what he tries, it's no use.

Because of the emotions they displayed, Ran Mouri and the others realized that something was amiss, and under their questioning, Inspector Megure had no choice but to tell the truth.

"Inspector Megure! I've brought the person who can remove the ID!" Inspector Shiratori walked over, leading a person behind him.

Conan looked up and instantly recognized the guy as Kaito Kid.

He frowned. What was he doing here at this hour?

Meanwhile, Kaito Kid, disguised as a bomb disposal expert, looked around and counted the people with IDs at the scene. He found that there were exactly nine people, and he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Thankfully, the number of attempts was just enough.

"Please start by removing the children's IDs."

As soon as Ran Mouri saw him stand up, she stood up and said something.

“Okay.” Kaito Kid nodded and squatted down in front of Ayumi.

The situation is urgent, and there's no time for them to postpone things.

He pretended to untie the bracelet, but in reality, his other hand had already secretly gripped the two diamonds.

Fortunately, the two diamonds didn't have any magic usage count, so they wouldn't decrease together.

Kaito Kid silently counted the time; it would take about two minutes to dismantle one of them.

Everyone present breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that he could actually remove the ID.

Unsurprisingly, the beautiful and kind-hearted Ran Mouri placed herself last in line, while the IDs of the others had already been removed and collected by Inspector Megure and his team.

There are still about 9 minutes left, so there's enough time.

They almost all glanced at the time at the same time.

When Kaito Kid started removing the ID from Ran Mouri's hand, Conan finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Things were going smoothly, but Ai Haibara felt something was missing. She looked up and glanced around, then her pupils suddenly contracted, and she jumped up in a panic, "Where's Chizuru!?"

Kaito Kid's hand trembled, his eyes widened, and he almost let slip his true voice: "There's one more person!?"

Inspector Megure also remembered and quickly turned to Shiratori, "Shiratori! Go to the restroom and tell Chino to come back!"

Officer Shiratori nodded and immediately turned and ran to the restroom.
