Chapter 851 Pramia Shows Mercy to Them

"So what was that person's purpose?" Liu Qingyao glanced at him with her head down.

Conan nudged a strange-looking weed with his toe, his tone turning somber:

"It's most likely to attract the attention of the police."

"After all, Pramia is no ordinary criminal. Someone like her, who treats human life like dirt and is arrogant and conceited, will definitely go to great lengths to target and attack the police in order to avenge a failed plan."

“But we are not Pramia. We are not sure if she will change her mind because of this failure and start to formulate a new plan. If she does, then she may take us down one by one and eliminate us all.”

"She is meticulous and her methods are hard to guard against. Recently, the police may be focusing their attention on her."

In the end, something seemed to flash through Conan's mind, but it happened too fast for him to catch it in time.

And since the feeling was vague, he didn't think about it too much.

Liu Qingyao clicked her tongue, leaned against the wall beside her, and crossed her arms. "Could it be that Pramia has accomplices?"

Conan pondered, "...It's not impossible."

"It's quite difficult." Liu Qingyao sighed, glancing up at the sky. "It's getting dark, shall we go get some dinner first?"

"good."

Conan nodded and went back to the car with him.

Once they arrived on the streets of Tokyo, they found a ramen shop and ordered a bowl of noodles to fill their stomachs.

As they left the noodle shop after their meal, they ran into an acquaintance.

Seeing Kita Ayane and Percy walk straight past them, the two exchanged a glance, one looking up and the other looking down, before openly following behind them.

Percy acted as if he didn't see the two of them, and just pushed Kita Ayane forward on the street.

Percy stopped when they arrived at a park with relatively few people.

Kita Aya Otoko sat in a wheelchair with his back to them. Although they couldn't see his face, it was likely as cold as his tone.

"You've been with me the whole way. If there's anything you need, just say so."

Conan and Liu Qingyao exchanged another glance, then Liu Qingyao coughed lightly and asked directly, "Did you take Pramia away?"

"no."

No sooner had he finished speaking than Kita Ayane's voice rang out, and without waiting for them to ask any other questions, Percy pushed him away.

This time, Conan and his companion didn't follow. After watching Percy and the others disappear, the two remained silent for a moment.

"Then what?"

Liu Qingyao asked the question sincerely.

Conan didn't answer, but frowned, looking serious.

His phone vibrated again in his pocket. He snapped out of his reverie and looked at Liu Qingyao. "Let's call it a day for now. After all, we probably won't get any more clues."

"Okay." Liu Qingyao nodded, got back into the car, and drove back to Beika Town.

When they returned to the front door of the Chino family's house, the lights were off inside, indicating that Chitake had already gone to bed.

He had chatted with Liu Qingyao on the phone for a couple of minutes before, so they knew about it.

Besides, they did return here quite late this time.

After taking a shower and washing up, Conan returned to his room. Before going to bed, he took out the phone he was using as Shinichi Kudo and glanced at the text message he had just received.

It was sent by Ran Mouri.

It's one of hers

A screenshot of the received text message, along with a single sentence:

[This text message seems a bit strange. Shinichi, could you take a look at it for me if you have time?]

Conan replied to the message and then clicked on the picture to view its contents.

At first glance, it did seem a bit strange, but upon closer inspection, his pupils suddenly contracted, and his expression turned somewhat terrified.

If you rearrange the text message content and read it aloud according to its homophones, you will get a new message that truly conveys the message's meaning:

Are you curious about Shinichi Kudo's whereabouts?

At first glance, it seems to be simply talking about Shinichi Kudo's actions, but in reality, this sentence also involves Shinichi Kudo as "Conan" at this moment.

Once investigated further, the secret of his identity will be exposed!

Conan took a deep breath, and his drowsiness vanished instantly after solving the puzzle.

He didn't know the purpose of sending that text message to Ran Mouri.

Was he planning to tell her his identity directly, or was it because Ran Mouri would ask him to take a look after receiving the text message, and then use her to threaten him?

Conan spent a considerable amount of his rest time thinking things through, and after deciding on the action he would take for the time being, he pulled the blanket over himself and began to try to fall asleep.

The next day, I got up early again, packed my things, and prepared to head to school.

Qianzhu prepared egg toast and milk for him for breakfast.

After he left for school, Qianzhu also prepared to leave.

Two peaceful days passed.

Kogoro Mouri finally walked out of the hospital, but before he could even relax, he suddenly received news that Inspector Shiratori had been injured in an explosion.

He was handling a case in Shibuya when he unexpectedly discovered a familiar liquid bomb in a park. He could have avoided being hit by the bomb, but he was caught in the blast while trying to save a three- or four-year-old child.

However, this was not the most serious part. In fact, several police officers who accompanied him on the investigation were killed in the explosion because they were unable to dodge in time.

The sky above the Metropolitan Police Department was completely covered by dark clouds, and the air inside was filled with a low pressure.

"......"

But in reality, it wasn't just Officer Shiratori who suffered; other officers involved in the Pramia case also encountered bombs, though none were as seriously injured as Officer Shiratori.

It may seem that Pramia went easy on them, but in reality, it's more like she's toying with them, retaliating against them, and instilling fear in them!

Unfortunately, they had no idea where she was or where she was, or even what she would do next!

Sato Miwako sat at her desk, her expression looking very serious.

She investigated all the locations where the bombs had been found that day, but did not find Pramiya or anyone resembling her at the scene.

To be more precise, they didn't even figure out how the other party managed to bring such an obvious bomb to the scene and plant it there!

How did Pramie find out about the police operation?

All of this seemed like a huge mystery that clouded their minds, making it difficult for them to think clearly.

Although they had determined that she had accomplices when they escaped from Pramie, they did not know the number of people, their characteristics, or anything else.
