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

However, Xiaolan didn't dare to kiss him on the lips; she only kissed his cheek.

Kitagawa Taki didn't expect Ran to take the lead. Just as he was about to return the favor, Ran didn't give him the chance.

Ran turned her head away, not daring to look Kitagawa Taki in the eye, and asked in a low voice, "Why...did you cut your hair blue?"

Kitagawa Taki chuckled softly, "Of course I'll keep Ran's lucky color!"

In fact, he had already used his divine sense to determine that the blue line needed to be cut.

However, as it turns out, Xiaolan's luck is truly remarkable.

……

Outside the building.

Seeing that three minutes had passed and there was still no movement from the building, Inspector Megure excitedly said to Kogoro Mouri, "It's alright! Brother Mouri!"

Kogoro Mouri, who had been holding his breath, finally breathed a sigh of relief and burst into tears.

Conan also breathed a long sigh of relief.

"How lucky I am!" Teiji Moriya exclaimed.

Upon hearing this, Inspector Megure said sternly, "Teiji Moriya! Just wait for the judgment of the law!"

Because of the bombs in the city hall, there were quite a few deaths and injuries.

After half an hour.

Firefighters finally cleared an escape route.

Kitagawa Taki and the others were successfully rescued.

When Sonoko saw Ran come out, she was the first to rush forward and hug Ran tightly, bursting into tears.

"Thank goodness! Xiaolan, you're alright, that's wonderful!"

While Ran was happy, she also felt a little guilty because she had just kissed Kitagawa Taki, which made her feel somewhat awkward in front of Sonoko.

After letting go of Ran, Sonoko rushed into Kitagawa Taki's arms.

At this moment, the others also came over.

"Brother Kitagawa, we owe you a lot again this time!"

Inspector Megure felt relieved; if it weren't for Kitagawa Taki, many more people might have died tonight.

The group exchanged pleasantries once more.

Afterwards, Inspector Megure instructed two police officers to take Teiji Moriya back to the Metropolitan Police Department, as he needed to stay behind to handle matters at the municipal building.

Kitagawa Taki's eyes flashed, and he took his leave with Haibara Ai and the others.

Upon reaching the car, Kitagawa Taki said, "Ai, you should take a taxi home! I still have some things to take care of."

"I understand." Ai Haibara wasn't surprised at all; she knew what Kitagawa Taki was going to do. As Kitagawa Taki was about to leave, she added, "You... be careful!"

Kitagawa Taki paused for a moment, then gave an OK sign. "Don't worry!"

The two of them understood each other without saying a word.

Kitagawa Taki quickly found a secluded corner and used his shapeshifting technique to change his appearance. This time, it wasn't Gin, but Vodka.

He then deliberately jaywalked at the street corner and stopped the police car.

The two police officers didn't suspect anything and even got out of their car to check the situation.

Kitagawa Taki swiftly subdued the two police officers before driving away from the scene towards the suburbs.

"who are you?"

Teiji Moriya witnessed the whole thing from inside the car, but he didn't believe the stranger in front of him was there to save him.

Kitagawa Taki sneered, "You'll find out soon enough."

Sensing something amiss in Kitagawa Taki's tone, Moriya Teiji asked, "Sir, do we know each other?"

You'll get to know them in a bit.

After saying that, Kitagawa Taki stopped paying attention to Moriya Teiji and focused on driving.

About twenty minutes later, the two had reached a deserted outskirts.

Kitagawa Taki stopped the car.

"Teiji Moriya, now you know each other, right?"

Kitagawa Taki returned to his original appearance and switched back to his own voice.

"You, you..." Moriya Teiji looked like he had seen a ghost.

Kitagawa Taki asked jokingly, "You really like explosions, don't you?"

Just like when Teiji Moriya had smugly provoked him before.

"what are you up to?"

Moriya Teiji finally panicked; he had a bad feeling.

He was so arrogant before because he knew that no matter how angry Kitagawa Taki and the others were, they couldn't kill him.

But now, facing imminent death, he can no longer remain calm.

Kitagawa Taki did not answer Moriya Teiji, but swiftly broke both of his arms.

Moriya Teiji screamed in pain.

Kitagawa Taki got out of the car, closed the door, and walked away.

Moriya Teiji also wanted to get out of the car, but his hands were broken, so how could he open the car door?

Kitagawa Taki conjured a fireball in his hand, and Moriya Teiji watched in disbelief as it flew towards him.

Seconds later, the police car exploded violently...

Chapter 99: Never Again

Two hours later.

Inspector Megure stared grimly at the police car, now reduced to a burnt-out frame.

There was a severely charred corpse in the back seat; clearly, Teiji Moriya was dead beyond any doubt.

It was only because a kind passerby called the police on behalf of the two officers that Inspector Megure was able to find the place.

Inspector Megure looked at the two police officers. "What exactly happened?"

One of the police officers said, "We almost hit someone, and when we got out to check, he knocked us unconscious."

Another person added, "It was a burly man dressed in all black, wearing a black hat and sunglasses."

All in black? This immediately reminded Inspector Megure of the mysterious man in black who had shot and killed the prosecutor last time.

He suffered a lot of blame because of this.

Unexpectedly, another man in black appeared this time.

Could it be that Teiji Moriya wasn't acting alone, but rather that he was being supported by a group behind the scenes?

Finally, after Moriya Teiji was arrested, fearing that he would implicate others, they silenced him.

Inspector Megure thought about it more and more and it seemed more and more plausible. A middle-aged university professor could not only steal a large amount of gunpowder from a gunpowder depot, but also make various kinds of bombs. If someone was helping him behind the scenes, it would make even more sense.

But having learned from his previous experience, he decided to report the matter honestly first.

……

Mouri Detective Agency.

The phone rang.

Ran answered the phone; on the other end was Conan, who was holding a voice changer.

At this moment, Conan is at Professor Agasa's house. Because Ran lost her cell phone, he can only call the agency's landline.

Conan's tone revealed joy: "Ran, I'm so glad you're alright. I was really scared when I heard you were at the City Hall."

Ran glanced at Kogoro Mouri lying on the sofa, but remained silent.

On his way home, Kogoro Mori vented his resentment towards Shinichi Kudo quite a bit.

Seeing that Ran hadn't responded for a while, Conan asked, "Ran, why aren't you saying anything?"

"You must be terrified, right? This Teiji Moriya is really crazy and cunning." Conan asked himself and answered.

Conan launched into a barrage of questions: "By the way, Ran, which thread did you cut in the end? I'm guessing it was the red thread, right? After all, red is your favorite color, isn't it?"

Is it red?

Ran remembered Kitagawa Taki's words, "Of course, you have to keep your lucky color," and for a moment she didn't listen to what Kudo Shinichi was saying, who was still "outputting" his words.

At this moment, Kogoro Mouri noticed something strange. Ran answered the phone but neither spoke nor hung up for a long time.

"Lan, whose phone is that?"

Kogoro Mouri's words brought Ran back to her senses.

Ran stammered, "Uh...it's Sonoko!"

"It's that brat Shinichi Kudo, isn't it!" Kogoro Mouri didn't believe it. He walked to Ran's side, snatched the receiver, and roared, "Shinichi Kudo, you bastard, don't call Ran again, and don't show your face in front of us, or you'll be sorry!"

Then, without waiting for Conan's reaction, Kogoro Mouri hung up the phone.

Conan, on the other end of the phone, rubbed his ears and said helplessly, "Uncle Mori is really angry this time."

Conan looked troubled. "Why is Teiji Moriya causing me trouble?"

Professor Agasa, who was standing nearby, said, "There's nothing we can do but wait for the police investigation results!"

The two were unaware that Moriya Tei and his companion were already gone.

Inside the detective agency.

The thought that Ran almost died because of Shinichi Kudo made Kogoro Mouri furious.

Kogoro Mouri said seriously, "Ran, you must not associate with that brat anymore! If he considered you even a half-friend, he wouldn't have failed to show up tonight!"
