Conan: Above all force, there is truth!

Upon hearing this, the suspect lowered his head even further, and a few beads of cold sweat appeared on his forehead.

The officer assumed he was trying to use the urban legend of 'Kondo the Killer' to muddy the waters and evade questioning, so he spoke again:

"What do you mean? Do you have any evidence to prove that this legendary assassin truly exists?"

To the officer's surprise, the suspect immediately slammed his hand on the table and half-stood up after hearing this, saying, "Now that you've caught me, you police officers will definitely take responsibility to protect me, right?!"

Upon seeing this, the middle-aged police officer opposite him frowned deeply.

Over the years, he has interrogated countless prisoners and seen countless suspects trying to 'play dumb' to avoid questioning.

But the suspect in front of us... his movements, his expression, and even the look of terror on his face didn't seem to be an act.

Could it be that... that assassin named Kondo really exists?

Before the middle-aged police officer could ask any more questions, there was a knock on the interrogation room door.

After receiving permission from the middle-aged officer, a younger officer opened the door and entered, whispering in the middle-aged officer's ear, "Excuse me! As expected, the intelligence provided by the CIA doesn't match the number of bombs we found..."

"What?! There can't be any mistake, right?!"

“Yes, we’ve asked them to count and check several times, but the quantity is still not enough…” the young officer said seriously.

"Damn it! So, there are still some bombs hidden?" The middle-aged police officer cursed under his breath as he looked at the ground.

Why would something like this happen in his jurisdiction?!

Since the number of bombs doesn't match, it means someone must have secretly taken the remaining bombs.

Regardless of the exact number of bombs he stole, they should not be underestimated.

After all, the person who stole the bomb certainly didn't intend to set off fireworks.

Just yesterday, the suspect in the interrogation room received a commission. He drove a truck from the port and delivered the goods to the designated location as requested by the client.

The man was somewhat well-known in the underworld, apparently referred to as 'Transportation Expert John'.

Upon receiving the intelligence, they immediately set out and arrested the suspect who was transporting the bomb.

However, after being arrested, the suspect kept claiming that he did not know about the 'bomb' he was transporting and insisted that he had no idea about the client's identity.

The only name mentioned is the 'Killer Kondo' I just mentioned.

……

Meanwhile, Longye and his group walked out of the restaurant after finishing their dinner.

Before leaving, Longye secretly asked Xiaojia to record Miss Xiangmiao's data.

Since it was already very late, after giving the client, Ms. Xiangmiao, several people said goodbye to her.

Not long ago, Ryuno and Ran parked their motorcycle downstairs at the office, so they happened to be going the same way as Kogoro Mouri.

After everyone had walked for a while, Xiaolan suddenly spoke up: "Dad, is it really okay to do this? Miss Xiangmiao, she..."

Before Ran could finish speaking, Kogoro Mouri pulled a cigarette from his pocket and casually said, "It's alright, it's alright~ According to Kanae-san's description, her husband shouldn't be a bad person. Besides, I'll meet her first thing tomorrow morning, so don't worry~"

"Besides, we don't even know where her husband is right now, so there's no use in worrying."

After saying that, Kogoro Mouri looked up at the sky, his expression melancholy. "More importantly, why is such a wonderful woman like Miss Nae already getting engaged? Sigh..."

Upon hearing this, Xiaolan's worried expression instantly turned into a dangerous one.

Soon after, the group arrived at the office building.

Looking up at the pitch-black office, Kogoro Mouri suddenly remembered something and asked in confusion, "Speaking of which... where's Conan? He went out to take a bath this evening, he should be back by now, right?"

Hearing her father say that, Xiaolan frowned.

No wonder she always felt something was missing from her father's side; it turned out Conan wasn't there.

"Don't worry, he had Kudo send me a text message. He ran into Kudo while he was taking a shower, and that guy took him out to eat~" Ryuno chuckled.

"That's all then. I'll go upstairs first. You two should go back quickly too." Kogoro Mouri waved his hand casually.

After saying goodbye to Kogoro Mouri, Tatsuno rode his bicycle and took Ran home.

After returning home, Ran asked in confusion, "Do Shinichi Kudo and Conan know each other? They seem to get along quite well."

"Hmm, I heard that Conan is also a distant relative of Kudo. I'll tell you about it properly when I have the chance~" Ryūno patted Ran's leg that she had put over her and chuckled.

After saying that, Longye watched TV while reminiscing.

Both the 'text message' sent by Conan and the 'legendary killer Kondo' have appeared in the original work.

With the addition of the 'bomb' incident reported on the news this morning and the arrival of 'Prime Minister Babiu and his family from Nepal,' he could now confirm it.

Conan has clearly been drawn into this incident involving a 'bomb attack'.

However, rather than being 'dragged into' it, it's more accurate to say that Conan actively went along with it...

Chapter 365 That day, a magical child appeared before Kondo.

As for Conan's safety, Tatsuno wasn't worried at all.

Although it involves both 'killers' and bombs,' it sounds terrifying.

But compared to Gin and the Black Organization, these people are negligible in terms of danger.

If this could threaten Conan, he would have been killed long ago during all those previous suicidal attempts.

However, speaking of bombs…

As if he had thought of something, Longye turned to look at Xiaolan, "Xiaolan, do you want to see the beautiful fireworks?"

……

that night

In a villa in the suburbs.

After Kondo escorted Conan into his room, he turned and went to the kitchen.

At that moment, the short-haired woman was holding a glass of red wine.

Upon seeing Kondo approach, the woman said calmly, "Well, is the child still sleeping?"

Kondo glanced around and then nodded.

Upon hearing this, the woman swirled the wine in her glass and chuckled, "We're going to stay here until morning. How about you have a glass too?"

"it is good."

Kondo reached into the cupboard and took out a wine glass.

"You're quite something. Although you're not as terrifying as the rumors say, you're certainly courageous." The woman couldn't help but praise Kondo when she saw how calm he was.

“There’s no use panicking now.” Kondo picked up his wine glass and walked up to the woman.

While the woman was pouring her wine, Kondo seized the opportunity to add the white powder in his hand into her wine glass.

Ten minutes later, after confirming that the woman was completely asleep, Kondo placed their wine glasses into the pool and let them soak in the water.

After doing all this, Kondo went into the room where Conan was kept and sat quietly on a chair.

After a moment of silence, Kondo stared at Conan's back and slowly said, "You should be awake, right?"

Seeing that Conan didn't react, Kondo continued, "I've already given that woman the sleeping pills you hid in the chair. She shouldn't wake up for a while. Don't be afraid, I'll help you escape. Get up quietly, okay?"

"Then what about you, Uncle?" Conan didn't move at all, not even opening his eyelids.

Upon hearing this, Kondo immediately frowned.

The next second, Conan slowly opened his eyes: "Aren't you being threatened and used?"

"Yes, you're right..." Kondo said calmly.

"The thing that was placed in the locker at the public bathhouse must be a bomb, right? I saw the news report this morning. The bomb should be in that biscuit jar."

Conan's words were clearly beyond Kondo's expectations, and he stood there stunned, not knowing what to say.

"Uncle, do you really not know what their purpose is?" Conan continued.

"Yes, that person used a lot of people to do this, so no one knows the real details of the plan. So I have to find the worst person behind it all. Enough of this, you should leave here and find the police."

"If I suddenly disappeared, Uncle, they would definitely suspect you," Conan said calmly. "And don't worry, that guy has probably already figured something out..."

"That guy?" Kondo frowned slightly.

Just then, footsteps came from the doorway, and the two immediately stopped talking.

The next moment, the door was opened.

A drunken blond man staggered into the room, holding a black object in his hand.

"Hello~ You must be the famous Mr. Kondo!"

"Who are you? Could you be...?"

"Haha, sorry to say. I'm not the 'team leader,' I'm just an employee on your work team."

After speaking, the blond man raised his arms and mounted the surveillance camera in his hand on the cabinet next to him.

"I'll use this to keep an eye on the brat. You can go and rest now."

Upon hearing this, Kondo turned to look at Conan on the bed, then followed the blond man out of the room.

After the two left, Conan's lips curled into a slight smile.

Although he doesn't yet know who Mr. Kondo is referring to as the 'worst guy'.

But the man named 'Achen' had already sent a text message to Ryuno using 'Shinichi Kudo's' phone under his guidance.

With that guy's intelligence, he must already be aware of his situation.

Regardless of what these guys' purpose is, now that Ryūno already knows...

Haha~

Thinking of this, Conan casually rolled over and found a more comfortable position.

Although he didn't want to admit it, the thought of that guy immediately dispelled his tension and anxiety.

Early next morning

The short-haired woman, who had been forced to sleep with sleeping pills, was awakened by the ringing of her cell phone in her pocket.

After finishing the call, the woman called Kondo over and told him the person's instructions in detail.
