Subconsciously, Edogawa Conan placed his fingers on his trouser pockets and gently stroked the fabric with his fingertips.
He had originally planned to use his hidden earring-shaped mobile phone to tell Inspector Megure what happened on the bus.
But now that he knows that the woman in the back row is their accomplice, Edogawa Conan naturally will not act rashly.
But……
His gaze shifted slightly backwards.
'Solana Garcia' was definitely not passing information to him. After all, no matter how good her relationship with his parents was, his parents would not have told her about this matter on their own initiative.
And this was the first time the two of them met.
Even if we include the meeting with 'Kudo Shinichi', the two of them have never really communicated, so strictly speaking, whether from the perspective of 'Kudo Shinichi' or from the perspective of 'Edogawa Conan', it was the first time they met.
Therefore, Edogawa Conan didn't think she could discover that she was actually Kudo Shinichi.
As a child who looked only 7 or 8 years old, he didn't think anyone would take the initiative to pass information to him using Morse code.
so……
His eyes shifted slightly, and his gaze swept inconspicuously over 'Aniide Tomoaki' who was sitting next to him, and then he looked away before 'he' noticed.
Is it 'he' or is it her?
Of course, there is another possibility...
Edogawa Conan thought about it and tilted his head unconsciously.
As he moved, the man who aroused his suspicion also appeared in his peripheral vision.
This person who wears a mask and covers his face tightly...
Although the two of them had never communicated, Conan Edogawa's intuition as a detective told him that there was something wrong with this man.
And Solana's attitude is a bit strange.
Edogawa Conan thought.
He always felt that she was deliberately targeting that man. Otherwise, she obviously had a better way to determine the robber's purpose and whether there were any accomplices of the robber among the people sitting in the back row. Why did she have to use such a method that hurt others and did not benefit herself?
Wasn't she afraid that her guess might be wrong, and that not only would an innocent person die because of her guess, but she would also attract the robbers' attention by rashly interrupting, leading to her own death?
Conan Edogawa couldn't quite understand Solana's thoughts.
And he didn't think that as a detective, she could really do something like using other people's lives to confirm her own guess.
Therefore, the only explanation is that she might really know the man, and was also sure that even if the robbers wanted to do something to him, he had enough strength to resist, so she spoke.
But……
Edogawa Conan lowered his head and pursed his lips.
Of course, it turned out that this method made her confirm her guess -
There was indeed an accomplice of the robber in the back row, and the two of them had already colluded to let their companion use him as a warning to others.
There are two purposes for doing this. One is to make everyone present obey, and the other is to clear her of suspicion.
After all, with the surveillance of the person in the back seat, no matter what small moves the people in the car want to make, they will definitely be discovered by them.
And if someone really did it and was really dragged out by them to warn the hostages in the car, there would always be smart people who would notice this suspicious point.
But with the incident where the robber shot at her, she was able to hide from the incident.
After all, who would have thought that the first hostage who was threatened with shooting by the robbers was actually one of the robbers?
And from this point of view, I'm afraid the female robber was the one who made this plan.
So could the remote control of the bomb be on her?
and……
Edogawa Conan frowned slightly.
How was she going to pass on the information to them?
Only by understanding this point would they have a chance to avoid her gaze and catch the two armed robbers.
But……
"Bang—"
"Bang—"
There were two heavy, muffled sounds in succession, which were the sounds made by the robbers when they arranged the ski bags upright and neatly on the ground.
This deliberate action also attracted the attention of Conan Edogawa.
Why did they line up the two ski bags straight up...
Could it be...
Thinking of that possibility, Edogawa Conan's eyes flashed.
Maybe he could give it a try.
Thinking of this, he jumped off the seat on his own initiative, trying to test the woman sitting in the back row while also checking what was in the ski bag to see if it was what he thought it was.
However, the robbers moved faster than he expected.
Before he could unzip his ski bag and take a peek inside, a dark shadow had already enveloped him.
"Hey, what are you doing here, little brat?!"
As expected, the robber's roar rang in his ears. The next second, Edogawa Conan, who had just reached out for the ski bag and had not yet had time to do anything with it, was grabbed by the back of the neck and thrown to the ground next to him.
“Ow! That hurts!”
Edogawa Conan cried out in pain.
He didn't expect the robber to come so quickly. Before he could even zip up his bag, he had just gotten close to the ski bag when the robber came towards him from the front.
So what is the method to notify them?
Even if it was a secret signal, it couldn't be so fast, right?
and……
He pretended to be innocent and got up from the ground, wondering if his reaction was too much.
This was even greater than his reaction after he had just 'accidentally' tripped over Judy Saint Timilion.
So...
His gaze slowly fell on the two ski bags, and a hint of thought flashed in his eyes.
This series of thoughts may seem to have taken a long time, but in fact it only took a moment.
Soon, another robber came over and reached out to suppress the robber's gun.
"Hey, be careful. What if it accidentally goes off and hits that person?"
His voice was very low, and he spoke close to his companion's ear, so Edogawa Conan did not hear his words clearly, but from the other party's behavior, Edogawa Conan confirmed his guess.
really……
The bomb was hidden in these two ski bags.
And then, I'm afraid they will make a request to the police like "release three hostages first, and release the others after Kunio Yajima is confirmed to be safe"?
Of course, it is also possible that they had already said it, so they placed the bomb.
Damn it...
So what exactly is the thing they use to communicate with each other?
If you don’t think about it quickly, there will be no time!
