Chapter 171 Save the Prisoner and Ask for a Monthly Ticket ()
Outside the abandoned building, there was a burst of dense and even knocking sounds.
…
Ten minutes ago, Teiji Moriya thought that he could use the bomb remote control in his pocket and the large number of bombs he had planted to deal with Jiang Xia, the righteous detective.
Ten minutes later, Moriya Teiji took the paper and pen handed to him by Jiang Xia with trembling hands, and began to draw the location where he would place the bomb with tears in his eyes. If he drew slowly, he would be hit with a baton.
Pain and confusion gradually emerged in Moriya Teiji's wise and resolute eyes - is this really a society ruled by law? If so, where are the police? Why don't they come to rescue him? ... These useless salary thieves!
…
Jiang Xia was holding a baton, supervising the work with a lack of interest.
He originally thought that artists must be very strong-willed, and would become very tough and aggressive for the sake of their ideals... However, it was proved that Moriya Teiji might have been used to a life of luxury and was particularly weak.
...Although the process was a bit boring, fortunately the murderous aura that should have been knocked down was not reduced at all, and all of it was knocked down.
…
After drawing the bomb positions on the circular line, Moriya Teiji handed the drawing to Jiang Xia: "Here."
Jiang Xia looked down and said, "What about those in the Mihua Municipal Building?"
Moriya Teiji: "?!"
...How did you know there was a bomb there!!
"Heh." Jiang Xia gave him a mysterious smile, "Do you think you can hide it from the detective?"
Then, like whacking a mole, he hit him with a stick and threw the drawing back to him coldly: "Keep drawing."
Moritani Teiji: "*#@$..."
He cursed in his heart, but could only start drawing the bomb installed in the Beihua Municipal Building with tears in his eyes.
…
At this moment, Jiang Xia's cell phone suddenly rang.
Judging from the ringtone, it is an ordinary mobile phone for daily use.
He took out his cell phone and looked at the caller ID. He found that it was Officer Sato's number: "..."
A second later, Jiang Xia casually turned his phone to silent mode as if nothing had happened.
"..." Calculating the time, Conan should have dealt with the bomb at the station and probably called the police, so Sato Miwako suddenly called him.
At this time, Jiang Xia thought silently that if he answered the phone, he would definitely be asked "Where are you now?", "What are you doing?", "How is the criminal?"... Then, the police would arrive quickly.
But if they come...
Jiang Xia glanced at Moriya Teiji who was still trying hard to memorize the location of the bomb.
——Once the police arrive, Moriya Teiji's life will be guaranteed. He might go on strike and refuse to draw the remaining bombs.
Rather than doing things halfway, it would be better to pretend that I didn't hear the call. Wait until Moriya Teiji completes his glorious mission, and then call the police over - this would save a lot of trouble.
…
In the open space near Beihua Station.
Miwako Sato glanced at the dial-up interface and frowned slightly: "No one answered."
Conan was startled and also dialed Jiang Xia.
However, just like Officer Sato, there was no news.
Conan's heartbeat gradually became faster and faster... I hope Jiang Xia didn't accidentally kill someone and is now trying to escape from the crime.
...Of course, considering that Jiang Xia has never accidentally killed someone before, on the bright side, this could be other situations - for example, the mysterious bomber is actually still alive, and Jiang Xia was just busy beating him, so he didn't have time to answer the phone.
Oh, and speaking of Bomberman...
Conan remembered something and his face suddenly became serious.
He thought of the worst-case scenario - the bomber's strength was unknown, his identity was unknown, and the number of bombs he carried was also unknown.
What if he tried to use a bomb to create chaos while being chased by Jiang Xia, and ended up blowing up the vehicle by accident, causing Jiang Xia to lose his mind and suddenly go offline...
Conan: “…”
Whatever the situation is, things are not good!
Calm down and think carefully: In fact, when Conan was in the park just now, he also vaguely saw a suspicious figure on the roof of a building.
If that happens to be the bomber...
Conan recalled the location of the building. Soon, Jiang Xia's direction of departure, the speed of the car, the road conditions around the park, the height of the building and the time he went downstairs, as well as Jiang Xia's habit of not being picky about occasions and catching the murderer on the spot and beating him... A complex spider web of thoughts spread out in his mind and soon intertwined into a point.
"Officer Sato!" Conan tugged at Officer Sato's sleeve, pulled up a map on his phone and pointed it to her, "Follow this road - they are likely here!"
"……good."
…
What Conan pointed out was a group of abandoned buildings waiting to be demolished.
There are many tall buildings here, and the view is not smooth. Considering that the enemy is a dangerous bomber, the police searched carefully all the way.
As they approached the edge of the building complex, they suddenly heard a desperate cry: "These are really all there are! I installed them myself, there's no way I remembered it wrong!"
Sato Miwako: "!"
This voice is not Jiang Xia's.
But because the scream was too shrill, Officer Sato immediately rushed to the corner and raised his gun vigilantly.
…Then she looked at the scene in front of her and was slightly stunned.
——In front, Jiang Xia was standing next to a car. Not only was he unharmed, he was also holding an unfolded baton in his hand.
Compared to him, the other person's situation was obviously more dangerous at this time.
——When Teiji Moriya heard someone shouting "Don't move, police!", his eyes lit up and he rushed over crawling.
"..." Sato looked at his face that was knocked into a pig's head, then looked at Jiang Xia, hesitant to speak:...You said you would be careful next time?
Jiang Xia: “…”
He quietly put away the baton, walked over as if nothing had happened, handed Sato Miwako two blueprints, and pointed at Moriya Teiji:
"This person has planted a large number of bombs on the Dongdu Loop Line and the Mihua Municipal Building. I just asked him about the location of the bombs..." Jiang Xia flicked the blueprint, "Although the authenticity is questionable, this should improve your search efficiency."
Sato Miwako was startled and took the paper from Jiang Xia. She glanced at the many bombs drawn on it and her eyes turned cold: Bastard bomber...
…
Officer Sato first took photos of the two drawings and sent them to Inspector Megure.
Afterwards, she glanced at the bruised and battered bomber, then looked at Jiang Xia. In her heart, she really wanted to praise him, “Well done!”...but she couldn’t, because she was a police officer now.
Sato Miwako held it in for a while, and finally said in a gentle voice: "Don't do this again in the future."
Jiang Xia answered very skillfully: "Well, I'll be more careful next time."
Conan and Takagi who were watching silently: "..."
This conversation sounds so familiar.
Next to him, Teiji Moriya struggled to get up from the ground.
He originally wanted to hide behind Sato Miwako, but as soon as he moved, he was glanced at by Sato. There was a hint of coldness in the policewoman's eyes, and that feeling... was surprisingly similar to the way Jiang Xia looked when she knocked him just now.
