At this moment, Ayumi, who was standing nearby, asked in confusion, "Conan, what did you just say about a cave? Could it be...?"
“That’s right, the person who attacked us just now should be Ms. Mizuki.” Conan nodded. “She was afraid that Touma would regain consciousness after witnessing the incident, so she kept staring at Touma.”
Tono Mizuki turned to look at Mitsuhiko and the others, bowed her head and sobbed, "I'm so sorry for giving you such terrifying memories... but I really didn't mean to hurt you..."
Hearing this, Conan frowned and touched his hair.
Although those bullets didn't hit him, those three shots were clearly aimed at killing him.
Even if he didn't see the bullets, he was absolutely certain that he felt those three bullets grazed his head!
Miss Mizuki said she didn't mean to hurt them... Please, if the bullet had missed even slightly, she would have been dead already!
Before Conan could voice his doubts, Ryūno interjected, "That's right. While Mizuki was indeed afraid of Touma regaining his memories, she genuinely didn't intend to harm you. She only fired to scare you away. Otherwise, given her marksmanship, you would have been hit long ago."
After saying that, Ryuno looked down at Tono Mizuki, who was squatting on the ground sobbing, and said indifferently, "It seems that Miss Mizuki also regrets her action of shooting to scare you."
Having learned what had happened, Mitsuhiko and the others looked at Tono Mizuki, who was crying, and shook their heads with sympathy.
"Big sister, what happened back then was just an accident, wasn't it? Besides, we weren't hurt, so don't blame yourself."
"Yeah, anyway, you just accidentally hit Conan's hair, he's probably already forgiven you."
Conan: "???"
Just as Conan felt that something was amiss, Genta saw the remote control in Conan's hand and picked it up curiously.
"Conan, what's this?"
Conan, who was deep in thought, suddenly realized that Genta had taken the remote control from his hand. He immediately cried out in alarm, "Give me Genta! This is the remote control for the bomb!"
Upon hearing this, Genta's eyes widened immediately, and he nervously glanced at the remote control in his hand.
Just as he was trembling and preparing to return the remote control to Conan, an accident occurred.
Because he was too nervous, Yuan Tai failed to hold the remote control firmly, and it slipped from his hand.
Seeing this, Yuan Tai quickly reached out to catch it, but it was too late.
—"Thump"
The next second, the remote control fell to the ground.
Because of the thick snow on the ground, the remote control didn't make much noise when it fell to the ground.
But at this moment, the faces of Genta and Mitsuhiko had all turned bluish-green.
Conan quickly stepped forward and bent down to check the remote control.
At this moment, the remote control emitted a continuous "beep beep" sound, and the red indicator light on it was flashing incessantly.
Upon seeing this, Conan instantly broke out in a cold sweat and roared, "Genta!!!"
Longye, standing to the side, shook his head helplessly.
As expected of the Junior Detective League, and as expected of Genta…
Even if there's no work, you still have to force it, right?
Fortunately, he had anticipated this absurd situation and disposed of the bomb in advance.
If this 'reservoir' had consciousness, it should really kowtow to itself.
"Everyone run! The bomb is about to explode..." Conan, realizing what was happening, looked at everyone and shouted.
Just as everyone was preparing to escape, Longye waved his hand and said, "Don't panic, we can go down slowly. The bomb won't explode."
Although he didn't know why Ryuno said that, Conan still ran to the railing and looked down at the bomb.
He only breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that the indicator light on the bomb below was indeed not lit.
Just then, Genta exclaimed in panic, "Conan, are you alright? Are you really okay?!"
Before Conan could reply, Ryuno walked up to Genta with a smile and said casually, "The bomb is fine, but you're about to get into trouble~"
Upon hearing this, Genta swallowed hard and slumped to the ground, utterly exhausted.
Chapter 387 proves that thinking should not be interrupted.
Shortly afterward, the police and bomb disposal team arrived at the scene.
Longye and his group left the reservoir and returned to the hotel to prepare for questioning by the police.
Muto Takehiko, who had been knocked unconscious by Yamao Keisuke's electric shock, also returned to the hotel.
After hearing about Ms. Mizuki's experience, he not only did not change his opinion of her, but even gently comforted her.
She even said, "Now you can finally escape the nightmare that has tormented you for the past eight years. Thanks to this, I can finally see your beautiful face without your glasses."
Seeing the deep affection in Muto Takehiko's eyes, Tono Mizuki couldn't hold back anymore, hugged Muto Takehiko, and cried in his arms.
Suddenly, the atmosphere in the room became strange.
If it weren't for Tono Mizuki being taken away by the police for investigation because of something that happened 8 years ago, Tatsuno would even suspect that the two were preparing to hold a wedding on the spot.
Seeing the two of them being so intimate, Sonoko and Ran couldn't help but smile.
It seems that the two people in front of me will soon be able to become a couple.
Based on the questioning of Touma after he regained his memory, the police finally confirmed Tono Mizuki's statement.
Although her sister's death was indeed related to Tono Mizuki, the main responsibility for her sister's death lay entirely with Yamao Keisuke, who was driving under the influence of alcohol.
While her indiscriminate shooting is questionable, she did not actually harm anyone.
Therefore, although Mizuki Tono cannot be exempted from punishment, she will not be imprisoned for long.
Upon hearing the news, Takehiko Muto and Sonoko all smiled with delight.
Longye blinked, slightly speechless.
After all, even Keisuke Yamao, who was convicted of speeding, drunk driving, hit-and-run, and whose driver's license was suspended at the time of the accident, was only sentenced to 8 years...
Even if Mizuki Tono deliberately pushed her sister down at the right moment, she probably wouldn't get a long sentence...
Not far away, Kogoro Mori squinted at Mizuki Tono and Takehiko Muto, who were hugging each other, and gave a disdainful snort.
Immediately afterwards, he turned to look at Conan and Mitsuhiko in front of him, and vented his pain of 'heartbreak' in another form.
"Damn it! Why did you all do something so dangerous?! Why didn't you notify the adults?! If the bomb hadn't been faulty and hadn't failed to explode, then now..."
"S-Sorry..."
Although the group had apologized, Kogoro Mouri did not let them off the hook and continued to lecture them.
Unlike before, this time even Professor Agasa and Ran did not step forward to plead for them.
After all, this matter is indeed of utmost importance.
If Ryūno hadn't arrived in time, Conan and Mitsuhiko might have been... caught in the crossfire of the armed criminal.
What's more, the criminal also had a bomb remote control.
If anything goes wrong, not only them, but everyone present will probably be going to meet God.
Dr. Agasa and Ran also believe that these naughty and boastful children need to be properly educated.
While listening to Kogoro Mouri's lecture, Conan glanced at Tatsuno out of the corner of his eye.
Besides confusion, he also felt a sense of frustration.
Although Mitsuhiko and the others didn't know, he guessed what it meant the moment he heard Tatsuno say 'the bomb won't explode'.
This guy found out the truth before I did!
The reason the bomb didn't explode wasn't because there was something wrong with it, as Kogoro Mori thought; it was definitely that guy's doing!
Conan paused slightly upon thinking about this.
Come to think of it, when he was in the snow earlier, he should have seen two people, right?
According to Ms. Mizuki, she did indeed fire the gun to intimidate Mitsuhiko and the others.
So, the other person back then... was that Takeda guy?!
Why didn't he stop Ms. Mizuki from continuing to fire?
Did he already know that Miss Mizuki wouldn't hurt them?
Conan subconsciously touched his new hairstyle and frowned.
Could it be that those shots were just fired casually by Ms. Mizuki and not aimed at her, which is why Takeda didn't care?
Wait a minute?! Could it be…
Just as Conan was about to delve into his thoughts, Kogoro Mouri caught a glimpse of Conan's 'unrepentant' expression out of the corner of his eye and promptly punched him.
"You brat, didn't I say something about you?! But speaking of which, when did you get such a weird haircut?"
Conan: "..."
An hour later, all the bombs in the reservoir were defused by the explosive ordnance disposal team.
Keisuke Yamao and Mizuki Tono were also taken to the police station, and the incident was temporarily brought to a close.
Kogoro Mouri then called Inspector Megure, intending to relay what had happened there to him.
Ryūno, Ran, and the others once again immersed themselves in the 'Snow Festival' in Kitazawa Village.
After skiing for a while, the group sat down to rest.
Just then, Sonoko looked at Tatsuno and asked in confusion, "Tatsuno, why did Uncle Mori and the police mention the Tokyo bombing earlier? Is there any connection between these two things?"
Xiaolan also looked at Longye curiously. She had also heard her father's conversation with the police and was somewhat puzzled.
Wasn't Yamao Keisuke planning to blow up the reservoir to find the diamonds buried eight years ago?
What is the connection between this incident and the bombing that occurred a few days ago?
Ryuno took a sip of his canned coffee and explained, "There are probably two reasons why Keisuke Yamao wanted to blow up the tunnel and the train that Mayor Asakura was riding."
“He could have dug up the gems he buried after his release from prison, but this ‘reservoir that appeared out of nowhere’ undoubtedly dealt him a heavy blow. This reservoir was built by Mayor Asakura back then, so he must be filled with hatred for Mayor Asakura.”
"Secondly, this was probably his first time making and using a bomb. He would have chosen to 'test' it beforehand in order to demonstrate its power and reliability."
Upon hearing this, Ran and Sonoko nodded, understanding the connection between Keisuke Yamao and the Tokyo bombings.
After taking a sip of her canned oolong tea, Sonoko pressed on, "What about Mr. Hikawa? Why did he kill Mr. Hikawa?"
