Chapter 2929 2941 [Mistake]

"That's definitely not right." A voice came from the side, clearly stating the reason why Officer Sato felt uncomfortable:

"It is not uncommon for bombs to be dropped in travel bags and briefcases, but the perpetrators... the bombers deliberately put them in bags in order to hide the bombs and delay the discovery and disposal of the bags."

Vodka's ears moved: "?" Murderer? What murderer? Could it be that a murder is about to happen in the car, and the guy who placed the bomb is the real murderer?

Just as he was thinking about it, he saw Jiang Xia pointing at the bag in the bathroom again: "Putting a sticker on the bag to indicate that there is a bomb in the bag obviously conflicts with the purpose of putting the bomb in the bag.

"On the other hand, if the bomber's purpose was to show us the bomb and then demonstrate, he should have taken out the bomb, made it visible to us, and posted his demands next to it instead of the briefcase."

Officer Sato understood and his eyes lit up: "No wonder I always feel strange. In the bombs we handled before, there was indeed no bag that was first packed and then specifically stated 'this is a bomb' - that is to say, the guy who put down this bag was actually bluffing, this is not a bomb at all!"

Jiang Xia nodded.

The crowd behind him was shocked when they heard this. Some of them breathed a sigh of relief, while others were suspicious by nature: "But listen carefully, there is a rattling sound in the bag!"

Others, who had just finished watching a heroic movie, wondered, “Could it be that someone discovered the bomb but didn’t want to be retaliated by the bomber, so they put up the collage to remind us?”

Vodka looked at them dimly and remembered the faces of these people clearly: "..." These guys really dare to challenge anyone... It seems that when I return to Tokyo, I have to take a detour to avoid being accidentally sucked into the stage again.

The organizational cadre was darkly speculating about the non-existent script. At this moment, at the bathroom door, Jiang Xia suddenly looked in his direction.

Soon, Jiang Xia turned back under Vodka's stiff gaze and said patiently: "The flight attendant said that this restroom is used quite frequently, so the bag was discovered by passengers not long after it was put down. It is difficult to find a suitable newspaper in such a short time, and there is no time to cut out the specific words one by one and put them on the paper."

As he said this, he walked over and leaned over to look at the paper on the package: "The glue has dried, it must have been prepared in advance."

"Wait." Although he believed in Jiang Xia's reasoning, Officer Sato still stopped him, "You guys step back, let me open the package, I'm a police officer." There was no point in letting a high school student step on the landmine in front of him.

However, Jiang Xia has always been very active. Before she could finish her words, there was a zipper sound - the bag was opened quickly and accurately.

Everyone stood on tiptoe with fear and curiosity, and then through the crack opened by Jiang Xia... they saw a mechanical alarm clock that was ticking.

The next moment, there was a shrill "Ring!!" sound, and the alarm clock's set time had arrived.

Jiang Xia put on gloves, reached out to press down the pendulum, picked up the noisy alarm clock, and turned off the switch.

Miwako Sato also hurried into the bathroom. She carefully looked next to the alarm clock, and then breathed a sigh of relief: This was indeed just an ordinary alarm clock, not connected to any mechanism fishing line, and there was no bomb underneath - except for the alarm clock, there were only thick newspapers rolled up in the bag, which propped up the leather bag and created the illusion that there were a lot of things in the bag.

"It seems like it really is just a prank." Officer Sato was a little angry, but also very happy: compared to the bomb installed on the Shinkansen, pranks were simply more enjoyable. However, this did not stop her from wanting to beat up the culprit afterwards.

With this in mind, Officer Sato returned to the corridor, holding the alarm clock and looking at the crowd: "Who was the first person to discover it? Please come over here, I have some questions to ask."

"It's me!" The young man next to Vodka raised his hand excitedly at first, then realized belatedly that something was wrong and shrank back, "You guys are not doubting me, are you?"

Miwako Sato: “…” Of course. After all, according to experience, the first person to discover something in various fields has a high probability of committing a crime.

But she just kept a polite smile on her face, "Of course not, I just have some questions to ask you - you were the first to arrive at the scene and have more clues than anyone else. This information is very important to us."

"So that's how it is." The young man believed it and said happily, "Then ask me, I will definitely cooperate!"

Vodka shook his head in disdain and tried to sneak away on tiptoe.

Calvados looked at the alarm clock and secretly breathed a sigh of relief: Since it was a prank, the police would neither require the car to stop nor search the passengers. His gun... was safe?

Touching the surviving gun in his pocket, Calvados was filled with emotion.

But then he came to his senses, his eyes jumped violently: Wait, he was a cold-blooded killer who gave countless policemen headaches, and his men had killed countless people. But now, just because the police didn't take his gun away, he was so happy as if he had received the autograph of a goddess... How ridiculous!

"The cases that happened a few days ago, it would be best if they were really coincidences." Calvados stroked the pistol through his clothes and snorted in his heart, "If I knew that there was someone behind this, I would never forgive that ghost."

While secretly making harsh remarks, he quietly stepped back, trying to slip away with Vodka.

However, when I turned around, I saw a figure running towards me along the corridor.

"Sato, Officer Sato!!" Takagi Wataru's face was grim. Before the person arrived, the voice came first, "Someone's dead!"

Miwako Sato: "?!"

A group of passengers: “?!”

Calvados: “?!”

Vodka: "..." I knew it...

"By the way, did no one except me notice that Uzo just said 'bomb maker' instead of 'murderer'?"

He looked around expectantly and cautiously.

Then I discovered with great pain: Yes, it was only him.

"Could it be that because Jiang Xia solves so many murder cases and always calls the criminals 'murderer' and 'murderer' when he is reasoning, other people think it is normal for him to make slips of the tongue?"

Vodka suddenly felt a kind of grief and indignation as if everyone else was drunk but he was the only one sober: "Why on earth did things turn out like this..."

After a brief period of depression, he suddenly thought of something and stood up again.

“Although Uzo was not discovered, there was a murder in the car. Wouldn’t Calvados, who was carrying a gun, be in trouble?”

When people are unlucky, they should look more at their companions who are even more unlucky.

As his eyes drifted towards the next room, Vodka's heavy mood suddenly became relaxed.
