The Daily Life of a Salted Fish Assassin in Anime Crossovers

At the same time, a doubt began to creep into his mind.

Is this really the treasure left by his grandfather?

Even if this wooden box really does contain a samurai sword, it can't be considered a "weapon of mass destruction capable of changing the world order."

When his grandfather hid it, World War II was almost over and the atomic bomb was about to be introduced. How could a samurai sword, a melee weapon, possibly change the world's landscape?

Just then, one of his men reminded him of something.

There seemed to be some photos inside the wooden box.

Fue Takuzo quickly turned his head to check again.

But looking at other people only made me more confused.

Those were several old photos that clearly had a historical feel to them, looking as if they were at least half a century old.

Because it was pasted on the top of the inside of the wooden box, he had only been paying attention to what was inside the box and had completely ignored what was on top of it.

He took out a flashlight to examine the other old photos.

The first photo looked very familiar to him because he had one at home.

That was a photo of his grandfather one night when he was surveying the area above Goryokaku Park in a hot air balloon.

He also showed this photo to Sonoko Suzuki, along with all the photos his grandfather had left behind.

At the time, no one took the photo seriously. Even when Jiang Hang imitated his grandfather by lighting a hot air balloon on Wulingguo, the grandson didn't immediately recall it.

However, the following photos were new photos that he had never seen before.

The second photo is of Mount Hakodate.

Of course, there are still many changes between Mount Hakodate half a century ago and now, but Takuzo Onoe hasn't quite figured it out yet.

However, he understood everything completely from the third photo.

Under his grandfather's command, one by one, heavy, mysterious objects, concealed by black cloth, were carried by soldiers into a secret room that appeared to be located halfway up the mountain.

The last photo shows his grandfather standing on a hillside, smiling at the camera.

The four photos seem to say nothing, yet they say everything at the same time.

Takuzo Fue, who never admitted that he was not smart enough, was overjoyed.

His grandfather had indeed left him clues.

Let's ignore for now what the first hot air balloon photo has to do with the ones that follow.

But he understood the last three photos.

It must be that his grandfather hid a large treasure in a secret room somewhere in Hakodate.

The treasure can be found once the location of that secret room is discovered.

His enthusiasm, which had just been dampened, immediately surged again.

"It seems the treasure is in Mount Hakodate. Although we don't know the exact location yet, Mount Hakodate isn't that big. I believe that if we spend a few days there, we'll definitely be able to find that secret room!"

Looking at the "big guy" that had been moved into the secret room in the third photo, Takuzo Onoe had no more doubts.

Seeing the weariness in his subordinates' eyes, Takuzo Akie once again showed his generosity, something he hadn't done in a long time.

Although there are still huge holes to fill at the company, the most important thing now is to find the treasure as soon as possible.

Yesterday I sold a bunch of family assets and got a sum of money from the Suzuki family. Now I'll use some of it to reward my subordinates.

After all, he still needed this group of laborers to do his work before he found the treasure.

After receiving a reward of 100,000 yen for everyone who participated today, the group was indeed energized and revitalized.

Then, Takuzo Onoe once again uttered a bold statement: "Brothers, let's go! Follow me to Mount Hakodate to continue our search for treasure!"

Chapter 574: Instruments for Shielding Bomb Signals

Although a kind-hearted person who wished to remain anonymous had already found a way to reduce the difficulty of the puzzle.

But even with the difficulty reduced again, Takuzo Onoe still couldn't understand what the first photo meant.

In short, given that all we know is that the treasure and the secret room are located halfway up Mount Hakodate, the Fue family's excavation work on Mount Hakodate will likely continue for quite some time.

However, with the other party doing this, Jiang Hang does indeed have more time to focus on the case at hand.

Anyway, he had already installed some small software on the phones of Takumi Fue and his men. With these software, he could keep track of all their progress and there was no need to worry about running out of time.

Withdrawing his attention from Tokie Takuzo, Jiang Hang went to the front of the train early in the morning to start making arrangements.

By preventing an air disaster, he smoothly took over the captain's position almost without most ordinary passengers realizing it, and perfectly landed the plane at the airport without any complications.

This one action alone left a deep impression on the leaders and police in Hakodate.

At the same time, Jiang Hang is also a special advisor to the Metropolitan Police Department and a guest who was specially invited by the Governor of Hokkaido to attend the opening ceremony.

Although most people don't know who Jiang Hang's backer is, even with the titles of Governor of Hokkaido and Special Advisor to the Metropolitan Police Department, Jiang Hang still has a great deal of power.

Besides Inspector Megure and Shiratori Ninzaburo, the head of the police headquarters in Hokkaido is also by his side now.

This minister was also one of the main people in charge of this operation.

He was also one of the few who knew Jiang Hang's background and identity, and was the biggest contributor to their efforts in finding a number of suspects yesterday by lending out that Altaïr.

Therefore, the minister was quite curious as he watched Jiang Hang setting up some small mechanisms on the tram, wanting to know what he was doing.

"Actually, they are just some high-precision directional signal jammers."

Jiang Hang explained to the minister.

He can use his skills to interfere with the surrounding signals, but when facing a criminal who is about to commit a crime and whose whereabouts are currently unknown, he still needs to be more cautious, especially when he doesn't know when the other party will make a move.

In each carriage of the Jianghang train, a directional signal jammer was placed in an inconspicuous location.

"The main purpose of this thing is to block specific signals. Of course, just to be on the safe side, I adjusted the power slightly. It won't affect the connection between the tram and the station, but regular cell phone signals may be slightly affected."

Seeing Jiang Hang's actions and the equipment he took out, the minister was no fool and naturally realized that Jiang Hang was doing this as if he were specifically defending against something.

"So you think that the person who sent the threatening letter to Governor Asakura will definitely attack the train during its journey?"

Jiang Hang continued setting up the equipment, nodding as he adjusted it.

"During my investigation into the gunpowder management situation in Hokkaido yesterday, I confirmed that a batch of gunpowder had illegally entered a certain area of ​​Hokkaido."

Upon hearing Jiang Hang's words, the minister instinctively wanted to deny it, but then realized that this was not a media inquiry, but rather Jiang Hang explaining things to him. So he changed his tune and pressed Jiang Hang for details about the batch of gunpowder.

"I'm not entirely sure of the exact location yet, but there are a few key areas I suspect, and one of them is actually connected to Governor Asakura."

Jiang Hang said this, and then said to the minister, "If I'm not mistaken, the prisoner not only wanted to take this opportunity to get revenge on Governor Asakura, but also wanted to use this incident to attract the attention of others and the media, so as to achieve his real purpose."

"The real purpose?"

Jiang Hang nodded.

"For example, blow up the dam that Asakura led the construction of when he was the governor and Minister of Land Construction."

"The dam...you mean the Kitazawa Village dam that Governor Asakura started the project ten years ago and built in five years?"

Jiang Hang gave the minister an approving look.

The fact that this minister can remember his superior's achievements before becoming the governor of Hokkaido so clearly shows that he has a strong desire to advance his career.

“It’s that dam in Beize Village,” Jiang Hang replied affirmatively.

It was only last night, while he was conducting a detailed investigation of Kitazawa Village and studying the dam that had been built five years ago and was related to Governor Asakura, that he suddenly remembered that he seemed to have a slight recollection of this episode.

To be precise, he hadn't actually watched that episode.

However, when he read the list of Conan movies that had been bombed before he traveled through time, it seemed that there was indeed a movie that was set in winter, and in that movie, the culprit blew up a dam for a certain purpose, almost causing Conan to die in an avalanche.

Jiang Hang didn't know the detailed plot of that movie, nor did he know why the culprit blew up the dam, but he remembered quite clearly that a dam had been blown up in a Conan movie.

He reminded the minister, "And even if the train hadn't had an accident, five days later, Governor Asakura was scheduled to attend the celebration ceremony for the fifth anniversary of the completion of the Kitazawa Dam."

Upon hearing this, the minister began to sweat.

He didn't know where Jiang Hang got the Hokkaido governor's itinerary, but the fact that Jiang Hang had mentioned it already made him a little scared.

Their original plan was to relax security after this opening ceremony.

After all, with a threatening letter and the perpetrator still unidentified, the police cannot maintain the highest level of vigilance indefinitely, even if the person is the governor of Hokkaido. Over time, there will inevitably be times when vigilance is relaxed.

If this were to happen, and Governor Asakura were to be murdered while attending the Kitazawa ceremony, it would be a serious dereliction of duty on the part of the police.

"Anyway, I originally planned to go to Beize Village after this opening ceremony, to see if the murderer would make a move during the ceremony, just to be on the safe side." Jiang Hang changed the subject back to his equipment.

This thing is most effective against signal-controlled bombs.

As long as the prisoner wasn't thinking of taking everyone down with him and didn't detonate the bomb at close range.

His methods for detonating bombs were nothing more than timed detonation and induction detonation.

The purpose of timed detonation is to accurately determine the specific time when a train passes through a certain location.

And it has to be precise within twenty seconds.

Otherwise, with a high-speed train reaching speeds of hundreds of kilometers per hour, it could leave the explosion point within ten seconds and the area affected by the explosion within twenty seconds.

If this were a train that operates for a long time and with a stable operating schedule, then this method could indeed be used to set the bomb detonation time.

But today is the first time this train has traveled, and by slowing down or speeding up slightly along the way, it can avoid the time bomb.

The prisoner wouldn't use such a foolish method to blow up the train unless he could board the train with the bomb under the watchful eyes of Jiang Hang and Altaïr.

However, since Conan, the Grim Reaper, experienced several train bombing incidents six months ago (one of which was the Shinkansen bombing incident where he learned Gin's real name), security checks on Japanese trains have become much stricter.

Especially given the extra caution the police are taking today, if that person manages to get on the bus with a bomb, Jiang Hang will really have to put the police in Hokkaido to the test.

In short, the possibility of a time bomb has been ruled out, and the only remaining possibility is a sensor-induced explosion.

Essentially, it's a situation where the bomb automatically detonates after sensing a corresponding signal through its onboard sensors.

For example, it might explode if it can't sense the sun, or if it senses water, heavy objects, or even electronic signals.

Jianghang mainly defends against this type of bomb.

Once the signal jamming is activated, it can detect sensors within a kilometer radius for a short period of time and temporarily confuse their sensing function, keeping them in their previous state until the train leaves the area.

"There... there really is such a thing?" Just listening to Jiang Hang's description, the minister was already a little tempted.
