Solving cases with Detective Conan's science? No, I'm a cultivator!

"Impossible, the airship must continue flying towards Osaka."

The bearded man handed Nakamori Ginzo's phone back to him.

"Go contact the police, but I must say this: if you dare to make any rash moves, the ship will explode."

The bearded man then produced another vial of green, unidentified liquid. "Also, this is killer bacteria. Don't even think about trying to subdue us, or the entire ship will be filled with killer bacteria!"

Kitagawa Taki's gaze lingered on the ampoule; this one was probably fake too.

The bombs are the real problem. If these guys get desperate and detonate the bombs, even if he's incredibly powerful, he won't be able to save everyone.

Conan apparently learned how to defuse bombs in Hawaii. Should we try to get him to defuse bombs?

Just as Kitagawa Taki was still thinking of a solution, the bearded man left the restaurant with Suzuki Jirokichi.

Inside the restaurant, apart from the three people hiding among the hostages, there were only four robbers left.

Suddenly, Rena Mizunashi spoke up, "I need to go to the restroom!"

One of the robbers looked at her for a moment, then gestured to the other to take her to the bathroom.

Rena Mizunashi closed the cubicle door and took out her phone to send a message to Gin.

That's right, she also has more than one phone.

Rena Mizunashi: The situation has changed! The red Siamese cat has hijacked the airship!

Gin: Red Siamese cat? What the heck?

Rena Mizunashi: There are seven people on the other side, fully armed, and they are suspected of having deadly bacteria. There are bombs planted on the ship, and there is a high possibility that their accomplices are among the hostages.

Hiding kidnappers among hostages is a common tactic used by kidnappers.

Gin: Proceed as planned.

Rena Mizunashi had no choice but to bite the bullet and do it; otherwise, Gin would probably think she wasn't capable enough.

Rena Mizunashi opened the door and walked out of the bathroom.

Because the robber had little suspicion of her, she easily subdued him.

Rena Mizunashi also stole the robber's submachine gun and pistol...

Sigrún has taught at the Iceland University of the Arts as a part-time lecturer since and was Dean of the Department of Fine Art from -. In – she held a research position at Reykjavík Art Museum focusing on the role of women in Icelandic art. She studied fine art at the Icelandic College of Arts and Crafts and at Pratt Institute, New York, and holds BA and MA degrees in art history and philosophy from the University of Iceland. Sigrún lives and works in Iceland.

In the rest room.

Conan, following suit, also pretended to go to the bathroom.

One of the robbers took Conan directly to the restroom without waiting for the previous robber and Rena Mizunashi to return.

The robber was also completely unprepared, and Conan easily subdued him with a tranquilizer dart.

Conan then went inside the cabin.

His plan was simple: first, defuse the bomb, then use the same mechanisms used against Kidd to take down the robbers one by one.

……

Seeing that Rena Mizunashi and Conan had lured away two robbers, Taki Kitagawa was tempted to take down the remaining two robbers.

At that moment, Junpei Ishimoto suddenly exclaimed, "Mr. Mizukawa, you have a rash?"

"No, I didn't!"

Masaki Mizukawa clutched his arm tightly, his face showing tension.

One of the robbers stepped forward to check, but was pushed away by Masaki Mizukawa.

Masaki Mizukawa roared, "I just have ordinary hives!"

Kasumi Nishitani pointed at Masaki Mizukawa and said, "I remember now, you smell of smoke on you, you must have gone to the smoking room!"

Masaki Mizukawa defended himself, saying, "I did go there, but I wasn't infected. I don't have any rashes anywhere else on my body."

As he spoke, he began to cough.

Upon seeing this, the two robbers immediately stepped forward, pointed their guns at Mizukawa Masaki, and surrounded him.

However, he didn't realize that he had left his back to the crowd.

good chance!

Kitagawa Taki's eyes flickered, and Ran also let go of Sonoko, standing side by side with Kitagawa Taki.

The two men exchanged a glance and immediately attacked, quickly subduing the two robbers.

Just then, a gunshot rang out.

Chapter 181 Sensitivity of Peers

It turned out that the bearded man had returned with Suzuki Jirokichi.

Seeing his subordinate fall, the bearded man immediately fired a shot at Kitagawa Taki.

Ran instinctively stepped in front of Kitagawa Taki, and thankfully, the golden talisman blocked the bullet for her.

"Lan!" Yuanzi exclaimed in surprise.

In a flash, taking advantage of the bearded man's shock, Kitagawa Taki fired several shots with the robber's pistol, successfully killing him.

All of this happened in just a few seconds.

The kidnappers hidden among the hostages hadn't even reacted yet.

Kitagawa Taki didn't waste any time. He first dealt with the photographer, Ishimoto Junpei, and then knocked Nishitani Kasumi down with a single punch.

Seeing that the situation was not good, the remaining waitresses drew their pistols to fight back, but Kitagawa Taki fired first.

The waitress collapsed.

If Kitagawa Taki's act of killing the bearded man had surprised everyone, then his knocking out Ishimoto Junpei and Nishitani Kasumi, and then killing the waitress, left everyone dumbfounded.

Nakamori Ginzo was astonished that the usually gentle and refined Kitagawa Taki had killed two people in a minute, and exclaimed, "Mr. Kitagawa, you..."

Kid was also horrified; this was definitely not the first time Kitagawa Taki had killed someone.

Ai Haibara said in a cool voice, "Junpei Ishimoto, Kasumi Nishitani, and the waitress are all Red Siamese Cat's people!"

"What?!" Everyone's expression changed drastically.

Kitagawa Taki laughed and said, "That's right, Inspector Nakamori, you saw it too. This woman tried to shoot me, and I was acting in self-defense!"

As he spoke, he first took the waitress's gun, and then searched Ishimoto Junpei and Nishitani Kasumi, finding a pistol on each of them.

Upon seeing the guns, everyone had no choice but to believe that the three men were indeed accomplices of the robbers.

Kitagawa Taki distributed the robbers' guns to several of Suzuki Jirokichi's bodyguards, saying:

"Now is not the time to be shocked. In addition to the six people here, there are four other robbers. Also, Fujioka Takamichi is one of Red Siamese Cat's men."

"You guys go and take care of the remaining four robbers, I'm going to find Fujioka Takamichi."

Nakamori Ginzo couldn't help but ask, "But wasn't Fujioka Takamichi already infected with bacteria and isolated in the treatment room?"

Kitagawa Takimichi: "The bacteria thing is fake. Didn't you notice that the robbers had no guard against the so-called infected people? And how could Fujioka Takamichi, as one of the robbers, have allowed himself to be infected?"

Because of Kitagawa Taki's accurate assessment of the identities of Ishimoto Junpei and the other two, Nakamori Ginzo did not doubt Kitagawa Taki's deduction about Fujioka Takamichi's identity.

Kitagawa Taki said in an unquestionable tone, "Officer Nakamori, go and find the bomb the robbers planted!"

As he spoke, he searched the bearded man and found the detonator and the tube of so-called killer bacteria.

Nakamori Ginzo paused for a moment before saying "Okay".

After handing the detonator and ampoule to Jirokichi Suzuki, Kitagawa Taki left the restaurant with several bodyguards.

……

the other side.

After knocking the robber unconscious, Rena Mizunashi went straight to the observation deck.

There are two more robbers here.

To Rena Mizunashi's relief, the gem was still there.

Rena Mizunashi will hide for now and observe the situation.

Back to Conan, he has successfully located and defused two bombs behind the smoking room and in the fuel room.

Conan is currently searching the area where the robbers might have planted a bomb.

……

Kitagawa Taki parted ways with his bodyguards and went straight to the treatment room.

Sure enough, there was only the waitress with the ponytail inside; there was no sign of Takamichi Fujioka.

Kitagawa Taki used his divine sense to search inside the airship.

We arrived at the viewing platform.

Kitagawa Taki immediately spotted Mizunashi Rena hiding in the shadows and the two robbers who were lighting a cigarette.

He approached Rena Mizunashi quietly, but Rena Mizunashi was very alert.

When Kitagawa Taki was still a few meters away from Mizunashi Rena, Mizunashi Rena noticed him and immediately turned around and pointed her gun at Kitagawa Taki.

When she saw that it was Kitagawa Taki, Mizunashi Rena was a little surprised, not understanding how Kitagawa Taki, who was being held hostage, had come to the observation deck.

Kitagawa Taki smiled as he looked at the pistol in Mizunashi Rena's hand and the submachine gun hanging on her body: "Miss Mizunashi, what are you doing here? Didn't you go to the restroom?"

He was quite curious about the purpose of Mizunashi Rena's trip.

Because the smoke from the chimney is quite loud, there's no need to worry about being heard by the robbers.

Suppressing her shock, Rena Mizunashi asked, "Mr. Kitagawa, what are you doing here? Weren't you being held hostage by the robbers in the restaurant?"

Before Kitagawa Taki could speak, the elevator doors suddenly opened.

Kidd, disguised as a waiter, came out from inside.

"Why is there so much smoke here?"

Kidd said, fanning himself with his hand.
