Tang Lichu: I’m sorry, but we don’t have any plans for the time being.
The bomber's information is not difficult to obtain.
The information obtained from Yue Yuanqing's memory is very complete, and with the presence of an organized super artificial intelligence, more detailed information is not difficult to investigate.
After an in-depth investigation and looking at the other party's information, even Tang Lichu found it inexplicably ridiculous.
It was such a stupid, greedy person, a mediocre person who was somewhat ridiculous, who killed an elite ace of the explosive/explosive/ordnance/disposal team and was about to kill another.
Kenji Hagiwara flipped through the documents with an expressionless face.
The curtains on the second floor of the detective agency were drawn and the lights were on in the house, illuminating everything so brightly that it seemed as if no shadows could hide.
"You can go beat him up right now, Brother Hagiwara." Yolanda suggested with a smile, jumping on the other side of the screen. "With me here, no one will notice anything!"
The purple-eyed police officer with a pair of beautiful droopy eyes finally raised his head from the thin documents and gave Yolanda a meaningful look.
"I thought you would want me to make bigger moves to attract Zero's attention." He slowly forced a smile, clasped his hands together, and faced the young detective and the office worker lady beside him, "Am I wrong?"
Tang Lichu: ...
I can see it.
So, so scary.
The reason why this character was killed early is definitely because his insight is too strong. If he were still alive, Conan would have no chance, right?!
Even though he was screaming in his heart, Tang Lichu put on several mysterious postures.
"Tell me your reasoning." Tsukizono Akiko spoke. She looked at Hagiwara Kenji deeply, neither admitting nor denying it.
"It's very obvious. You didn't intend to hide it from me from the beginning." Hagiwara Kenji narrowed his eyes and waved a finger in front of his eyes. "You revealed too much information to Xiao Yugu."
"Maybe we just want to show our sincerity and cooperate with the Police Department's Public Security Department." Yueyuan Mingzi did not comment.
"But you didn't point out his identity as a public security officer, but were vague and equivocal. From what I understand, Xiao Xiangya is probably confused and wondering whether you know his identity or not."
"If you were just seeking cooperation, you could have used a safer and clearer method. I don't think that Kofuku wouldn't sit down and talk to you patiently." Hagiwara Kenji looked straight at the dark pink-haired detective in front of him, "But you didn't. You used ambiguous words to arouse suspicion and attention, leading the police to investigate you and focus their attention on you."
"Why? Are you planning some other big event that can't be detected by Kofuku and the others? No, that doesn't explain why you brought me in." The half-long-haired police officer put away his smile, his whole temperament became steady and serious, and even his voice became faintly low. "Excluding these, there is only one possibility left."
"In the APTX-4857 experimental area, do you really need me to create a commotion just to attract the attention of the Black Organization? Don't forget, I've also participated in the experiment, and it's entirely possible to collect intelligence while half awake. So I know very well that they already have a plan for the laboratory to be attacked." He crossed his fingers, straightened his back, and placed his hands in front of his knees. "By creating an explosion and letting the experimental subject go, the organization won't be in a rush for a long time. It's even possible that the other party just regards this as a harmless mutiny."
Tang Lichu almost held his breath, but he always remembered not to behave too ungentlemanly.
At the same time, he opened the Weimar vest. Yolanda quietly connected to the Internet and connected the surveillance installed by the detective agency to his computer.
In front of Hagiwara Kenji, Tang Lichu acted as if he had heard something funny: "Your idea makes sense, but please tell me, if it's not to attract the attention of the organization, why did we make such a big scene? Bombs are not cheap, former police officer."
"You need to attract the attention of the police."
The police officer with purple pupils leaned forward without question, raised his hands from his knees, and placed them under his chin.
"When I was a kid, my teacher taught me in a safety education class that when you encounter danger, you should shout for help loudly to attract as much attention as possible from others."
He paused, and finally concluded his inference: "You are asking for help."
He quietly looked at the two people in front of him whose expressions unconsciously restrained and looked tense, and knew that his guess was mostly right.
However, Yueyuan Mingzi suddenly smiled.
"You didn't dare to confirm these speculations just now." With the help of the Weimar vest, she easily glimpsed Hagiwara Kenji's psychological activities, "You are testing us and observing our reactions. You want to further explore our position - why? It is your own choice to stay here."
"..." Hagiwara Kenji's eyes darkened and he sighed, "You've been discovered. Is it because of the special abilities that the organization's transformation has given you?"
He winked mischievously and said with a smile: "After all, I am very confident in my abilities."
Yueyuan Mingzi and Tang Lichu did not reply.
Yolanda on the phone, however, put her hands on her hips in dissatisfaction and said, "Hey, special abilities are also abilities we possess, this can't be considered cheating! It's just that you are not as skilled as others!"
Hagiwara Kenji laughed for a moment, then turned his gaze back to the two young people, a man and a woman, in front of him.
"You have been guiding me, expecting me to behave in a way that is not consistent with my former identity as a police officer." He spread his hands. "The words Yolanda said were an attempt to provoke me, right? You want me to be enraged and throw away my rationality so that you can see my true reaction?"
"You are also testing me, aren't you? Tell me the reason, okay?"
His tone softened, and his eyes flickered, making people feel quite sincere.
Tang Lichu lowered his eyes with an ambiguous look, and instantly caught a flash of inspiration.
He laid out a new script at this moment.
"You are wrong, we are not asking for help."
"If I have to say it, we just want to expose ourselves to them and make a perfect farewell."
The young man with dark pink hair stood up abruptly. "We invite you to join this play. Together with us, sacrifice yourself and completely eliminate the black shadow that has occupied the inner world for more than half a century."
Hagiwara Kenji's heart sank little by little.
But he didn't say more, just put his hand in front of him, as if making a contract.
"good."
And in the distance, Weimar's indigo eyes clearly revealed the thoughts of the purple-eyed police officer.
'Hold them back - before they do anything extreme.'

Fūya Rei pays more and more attention to the Self-Help Society. The reason is that they have learned too much information.
He was walking towards the safe house with a heavy heart, but suddenly received an email from his subordinates in the public security department.
Yuya Kazami: Mr. Fūya, yesterday the First Investigation Division received a report from a passerby about an explosion. When we arrived at the scene, we found that it was related to human experiments. We initially suspected that this matter involved an organization. I have asked them to hand it over to the public security for investigation.
Yuya Kazami: Officer Matsuda seems to have discovered more, but he is unwilling to cooperate and give us information. When I asked him about his other two childhood friends, he was unwilling to answer.
“…”
Furugaya Rei pressed his temple.
He received a text message from a familiar number.
'Blond bastard, let's meet, today.'
Fūya Rei frowned.
He knew that his friend, although rebellious and unruly, would never do anything rash without a purpose.
The fact that they would risk contacting him now shows that his discovery is truly important.
Otherwise, Matsuda Jinpei could have waited until the day after tomorrow, which was November 6th, to tell him. After all, the four of them had planned to get together that day to visit the grave of their mutual friend Kenji Hagiwara.
Fūya Rei confirmed the time and place of the meeting without hesitation. It happened to be convenient for him as he had no organizational tasks to do today.
As the sky gradually darkened, the dark-skinned young man covered his overly conspicuous blond hair with a baseball cap, nimbly jumped over a not-so-high wall, and stopped at the deepest part of a winding alley.
"Long time no see, curly-haired bastard." He used the nickname he had in police academy to respond to the other party's text message "blonde bastard".
Normally, Matsuda Jinpei would have snorted and started a fight with him. But today, the curly-haired officer Ikemura just remained silent.
Furiya Ling keenly sensed something was wrong: "What's wrong? Is it related to what you wanted to talk to me about today?"
"Yes." Matsuda Jinpei nodded as if he had just come to his senses. "I found this at the first scene of the explosion."
Fūya Rei looked down. It was an electronic device that looked a bit tattered, and it was obvious that it had been reassembled. Matsuda Jinpei pressed one of the keys, and the screen of the device lit up.
"That piece was completely destroyed. When I was packing up, I accidentally saw this. Since I had never seen the structure before, I just wanted to assemble it." The police officer explained concisely. He was in no mood to joke with his old friend.
“And then I saw this.”
On the screen was a document titled "Experimental Results of the APTX-4857 Experimental Area". A string of English letters was filled in for the executor and supervisor: SHERRY.
The first page was someone's approval of her experiment: the method was too mild and inefficient, and it was suggested to introduce a water tank and electric shock.
Sherry?
Furiya Ling frowned: "This is not something you should touch. You should hand it over to the police."
Matsuda Jinpei shook his head: "This is not what I really want you to see."
He lit a cigarette and put it between his lips, then slid his finger down the screen.
"here."
Furiya Rei's eyes widened as he saw the words and pictures above.
"…Experimental subject No. 00143, Kenji Hagiwara, entered the experiment on November 7, XX."
Below the words, the familiar face with confused and unfocused eyes almost hurt his eyes.
