People are in Conan, but Ace Attorney

Chapter 911 The Weight of Life

Jingu Kyohei roared from the pilot's seat of the helicopter.

He held Sawamura Haruka hostage with one hand, while his other hand groped haphazardly for something on the cockpit instruments, and with a push, he caused the helicopter to stall and become completely out of control.

The police helicopter pilot who witnessed this bizarre scene from a distance immediately reported the information to the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department.

When Toshiro Odagiri of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department Command Headquarters heard this bad news, he was completely stunned.

As a veteran officer of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department, what kind of storms hadn't he weathered? But this situation was something he had never seen before—

What do you mean by a member of the Japanese Public Security Bureau shooting at the propeller and then jumping onto the stalled helicopter in an aerial version of a boarding maneuver? Is that something a human could do? Are you sure it's not some urban legend?
Odagiri Toshiro was slightly shocked for a moment, then immediately picked up the walkie-talkie and said,
"Report your location to me. Jingu Kyohei's helicopter has stalled and could crash at any moment. Fortunately, Inspector Shiratori Ninzaburo and his men just passed by there. We should be able to get reinforcements from the local area in time!"

His expression had turned serious.

Looking at the traffic footage transferred from the Ministry of Transportation —

Tokyo’s surveillance system has always been poorly equipped, so even the traffic conditions are scattered. However, at least the traffic congestion caused by Akira Nishikiyama and Ryuji Goda has improved significantly.

The evacuation should not be too difficult.

Odagiri Toshiro couldn't help but sigh.

Hopefully this incident can end quickly and avoid unnecessary damage; otherwise, the situation will become increasingly complicated and difficult to handle!
Gunshots rang out from inside the helicopter.

The instant Jingu Kyohei turned his head to look at the instrument panel, Amuro Tooru pulled the trigger without hesitation.

The pistol bullet pierced Jingu Kyohei's head instantly, causing him to slump backward and fall onto the instrument panel. This gave the already out-of-control helicopter an even bigger jolt.

Sawamura Haruka, who had been held hostage, broke free from Jingu Kyohei's weak arms.

However, the highly tilted fuselage made it impossible for her to stand. If Amuro Tooru hadn't pulled her up at the crucial moment, Sawamura Haruka would probably have been thrown out like those money bags that were very close to the cabin door!
"Hold my hand tight! Don't let go, I'll take you out!"

Amuro Tooru said in a deep voice.

In his view, Haruka Sawamura's life was far more important than the 10 billion yen in cash.

He pulled Sawamura Haruka to his side, grabbed the internal fasteners of the helicopter, and looked at the place where the helicopter would crash—thankfully, it wasn't in the middle of the road.

It was a park with hardly anyone around.

There's no need to worry about causing harm to other innocent people now. The only thing to be concerned about is how to safely get Sawamura Haruka out of the helicopter, which is stalling at high speed.

Amuro Tooru endured the dizzying sensation as he observed the surroundings, waiting for his opportunity.

Just as the helicopter reached a suitable position, he jumped out without hesitation, holding Sawamura Haruka in his arms. Almost the instant he jumped out, the helicopter changed direction again.

The propeller sliced ​​across the spot where Amuro and his companion had jumped earlier, like a blade.

If Amuro Tooru had jumped even a few seconds later, the out-of-control helicopter's rotor blades would have shattered him and Sawamura Haruka in his arms into pieces!

Even so, this experience still made their hearts race.

Amuro Tooru shielded Sawamura Haruka, rolled to the ground, and, enduring the discomfort, quickly got up and stood on the low rooftop of the building, looking in the direction the helicopter had crashed.

The worst did not happen. There was no one who knowingly went into danger and deliberately went to the park just before the helicopter crashed. Although the helicopter crashed, it did not cause any harm to innocent civilians.

"……it's over."

Looking at the flames that suddenly ignited over there, and the deafening explosion.

Amuro Tooru couldn't help but mutter to himself.

He took his cell phone out of his pocket—normally, he should have used a walkie-talkie for easier internal communication during operations, but the operation had been too intense, and he didn't know where the walkie-talkie had fallen.

Therefore, he can only communicate using a mobile phone that is placed closer to his body.

He first dialed the number of Kazami Yuya, who was supposed to be waiting downstairs at the Millennium Tower, but no one answered. Immediately, he frowned and realized that something must have happened downstairs at the Millennium Tower.

Although Yuya Kazami is a fan of ACG culture, he is quite responsible when it comes to doing things.

Unless there's an emergency, it's unlikely that Kazami Yu would refuse to answer the phone when he's supposed to be on a mission. It's possible that Kazami Yu has encountered some unexpected situation and is unable to answer the phone.

Thinking of this, Amuro Tooru immediately dialed the number of the undercover investigator to report the current situation.

Moreover, he didn't forget to ask a question,
"There are still billions of yen in cash inside the Millennium Tower that haven't been taken. Kazuma Kiryu and lawyer Mukai are still inside the Millennium Tower. Have they come out yet?"

"Not yet? According to the description from the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department's police helicopter... they're fighting with other people?"

call out----

The blade of the Demon Hunter's Blade was embedded in the wall, leaving only the hilt sticking out.

Upon seeing this, a look of astonishment flashed across Akigo Ryuji's eyes.

He hadn't expected the knife to be so sharp, nor had he imagined that Xiang Yuanguang, a lawyer, would possess such strength; it was simply unbelievable.

No matter how sharp a katana is, it's impossible to penetrate the hilt by throwing it without immense strength. In fact, strength is far more important than the sharpness of the katana.

Hikaru Mugen, known as the Dragon of Beika Town, seems to be even more powerful than he imagined!
"and who are you?"

Xiang Yuanguang frowned.

He had just finished off the MIA colonel he was fighting and was about to go to the rooftop to check on Amuro Tooru's situation when he heard footsteps coming from the stairwell.

Without thinking, he swung the knife straight at the target.

His target wasn't actually the person; it was merely a means of intimidation. However, the person seemed completely unfazed and instead became even more excited.

This left Xiang Yuanguang somewhat puzzled.

He glanced sideways at Kiryu Kazuma, who had just finished dealing with another MIA colonel but was now being held back by Nishikiyama Akira. He sighed and then said…

"If you're going to fight, hurry up, I'm in a rush!"
