Conan's I'm really not a model worker in a winery

Matsuda Jinpei's proposal was naturally passed unanimously, not to mention that this was their original plan.

Officer Megure immediately informed the mobile team to investigate the Tokyo Tower and try his best to investigate without causing panic among tourists.

Of course, if no trace of the bomb is found in the end, for the sake of safety, tourists may have to be evacuated...

However, Tokyo Tower's opening hours are not very long, and it closes long ago at midnight.

Therefore, except for Takagi Wataru, everyone else is very doubtful whether this location is correct - bombing the Tokyo Tower at midnight, is it really just fireworks, right?

It has absolutely no deterrent effect on citizens!

Very unlikely to be the choice of an explosive element.

After the initial exchange, the Search Section 1 was the same as the Search Section 2. Except for those who stayed on duty, almost all members were mobilized.

Sato Miwako and Shiratori Rensaburo were in a group, Matsuda Jinpei and Takagi Wataru were in a group, and Officer Megure was working with another police officer in the class who was a supplementary officer.

They will not stay at the Metropolitan Police Department and wait for the clues to be completely solved before taking action. If the location is too far away from the Metropolitan Police Department and they cannot arrive in time, then everything will be over.

The three groups of people were responsible for three large areas respectively. Except for a few areas near Tokyo Tower, the others were conducting searches around the central area - of course, they did not necessarily have to go to every place. After all, the local district police were not entirely for show.

.

It was almost past nine o'clock when the group set off.

It was less than three hours before the time predicted by the criminals, but the four bombs had not yet seen their shadows, adding a haze to the already dark night...

Just as Officer Megure drove to the port area, the phone rang suddenly.

It was Takagi Sheba calling:

"Officer Mu Mu! The headquarters said that the prisoner gave another tip!"

"What is it?!"

"The prisoner said that it is prohibited to set off fireworks and firecrackers in the urban area... said it was a reminder??"

Listening to Takagi Wataru's voice, it was obvious that he was confused.

Officer Megure followed closely: "???"

Fireworks and firecrackers are prohibited in urban areas? What does that mean?

The voice of Matsuda Jinpei could still be heard faintly on the other end of the phone: "There are two possibilities. One is that the bomb planted by the prisoner is not in the city. The second is that the prisoner may have hidden the bomb in a place in the city where open flames are prohibited."

Takagi Wataru's attention also left his mobile phone at this time, "But Matsuda-senpai, there doesn't seem to be any place in the city where open fires are prohibited, right?"

"... Silly, do you think enemies like parks can be protected from fire?"

"Eh? Hey! That's right, Matsuda-senpai! Isn't one of the places 'under the cherry blossom trees'? Then we just need to check all the places with cherry blossom trees in Tokyo?"

"No, the scope can be smaller... In fact, I'm afraid the prisoner's latest reminder must be reversed, that is, 'In urban areas where fires are prone to occur and where there are cherry blossoms..."

"Oh oh oh! Matsuda-senpai is right..."

The exchange between the two people reached Officer Megure's ears through the phone.

As soon as he heard about cherry blossom trees and enemies prone to igniting fires, a place name popped up in Officer Megure's mind for no apparent reason.

But just when he was about to say something, Takagi opposite him directly... hung up the phone!

beep--

"..."

The long beep seemed to be mocking him.

Officer Megure: Let Takagi write an inspection report when you get back!

…

"Hey, Officer Memu, it's me."

Cupido Town.

Miwako Sato, who happened to be patrolling here, received a call from Officer Megure.

It was almost after Officer Megure hung up the phone that he called Sato Yumei with the news about the 'fireworks'.

but……

"...Well, Matsuda just called me to tell me about the prisoner's warning. We are planning to rush to Didan High School..."

Miwako Sato answered very neatly.

As he spoke, Shiratori Rensaburo had already passed the last street of Cupido Town and entered the territory of Yoneka Town.

Like Officer Megure, she had been dealing with cases in Yoneka Town for many years. As soon as she was reminded of Sakura, a flammable and explosive place, she immediately thought of... Teitan High School.

It’s not because Didan High School’s fire prevention measures are not good.

It's because there is a cherry blossom tree planted in the corner of the back door of the school, and the bomber caught by Matsuda Jinpei last time also planned to blow up Teidan School, but because they discovered it in time, they did not let the other party succeed...

Isn't this considered flammable and explosive?

Furthermore, they were relatively familiar with places in urban areas that had cherry blossom trees, so only Teidan High School was the most suitable target location.

Other places with cherry blossom trees are basically in the countryside or parks. Anyway, the location is very remote, and there is no one at all at night...

...But then again.

No one is here at Didan High School at night!

Sato Miwako was a little skeptical about the accuracy of this location, but now there is really no better choice.

After using the police manual to sneak into Teitan High School in a fair manner, Miwako Sato and Rensaburo Shiratori immediately directed a team of people they led to conduct a search in the school.

The light of the flashlight illuminated the dark campus, which looked a bit weird at night.

The gorgeous cherry blossom trees during the day look a bit magical at night. The breeze blows, causing the flower branches to tremble and rub. The rustling sound always arouses Sato Miwako's mind, making her look up from time to time to take a look at these pink and white petals.

.

For some reason, she felt an uncontrollable palpitation in her heart...

It was as if something bad was going to happen soon.

Miwako Sato couldn't help but caressed her chest where she had been shot, and looked for anything suspicious near her. After finding nothing unusual, she walked up to Shiratori Rensaburo, "How is it? Did you find anything else?"

Shiratori Rensaburo looked at each other and several police officers who had returned without success, and they all shook their heads, "There is nothing here."

By the light of the flashlight, you can see that in the corner, the soil under the cherry blossom trees has been turned up, and some police officers climbed onto the wall, but found nothing.

Miwako Sato raised her head and turned the flashlight upward at the same time.

Suddenly, she noticed that something seemed to be reflecting light on the branches of the cherry blossom tree.

"What's this?"

She stood on tiptoe and stretched out her hand to reach the shiny thing on the branch.

——A pocket watch.

There is also a note stuck to it.

Out of caution, Sato Miwako did not pull off the pocket watch, but tried hard to distinguish the handwriting on the note:

"Please, look... at the time on the watch?"

"...What?" Rensaburo Shiratori, who was next to him, came over blankly.

"'Please look at the time on the watch.'" Miwako Sato pointed at the note, her face a little ugly, "Shiratori, can you see the time on that pocket watch?"

Shiratori Rensaburo raised his head: "Let me see... nine twenty-seven."

Sato Miwako suddenly turned around, "What time is it now?!"

"Ah? It's nine twenty-six now..."

After Shiratori Rensaburo finished speaking, he immediately realized something.

Wait... this pocket watch is paused. Could it be the detonation time of the bomb!?

He suddenly felt as if the temperature around him had dropped a few degrees.

The second hand on the watch has less than ten steps left and will go through 12 words!

"Everyone! Get off that wall!!"

Miwako Sato didn't bother to check whether her guess was accurate. She shouted, took three steps and two steps at a time, pulled the two police officers over forcefully, and immediately ran towards the door.

——Click!

The pocket watch hanging on the cherry blossom branch made a slight muffled sound. At this time, the second hand on Shiratori Rensaburo's hand also passed '12', and it happened to be stuck at nine twenty-seven.

The next moment, the few people with their backs to the cherry blossom trees felt a wave of heat behind them, and the sense of crisis in their hearts made them choose to lie down immediately.

"boom--!!!!"

The wall next to the cherry blossom tree was instantly blown apart, and the cherry blossom tree next to the wall was inevitably devoured by tongues of flames, and not a single cherry blossom survived.

Simply put, they are all fine.

Miwako Sato got up from the ground as soon as the explosion subsided, took out her cell phone, and prepared to report the incident to Officer Megure.

Can.

But through the blown-through wall and smoke, she saw a figure who shouldn't be here.
