Science: The Little Shota of the Maori Family

"That's right." Ayumi, who seemed to be a fan of this team, continued, "They were trailing 0-1 in the second half, but Archer managed to tie the game. After the extra time, Naoki added another goal. It was simply amazing."

Watanabe Toru chuckled twice. He didn't pay any attention to these games at all.

Mitsuhiko looked at the densely packed crowd and said, "But with so many people crammed in here, we can't even hope to watch the parade. I even brought my camera with me. What a shame."

Yuantai looked around and suddenly his eyes lit up. He pointed to a trash can in front and said, "Stand on it, maybe you can see it."

After saying that, he ran over and stood on the trash can. However, he could only see the top of the crowd. He even accidentally stepped on the trash can and fell on his butt.

Unwilling to give up, he ran to the mailbox at the corner of the street, climbed up and lay down, allowing Mitsuhiko to step on his back and film the parade with a camera.

However, his actions were quickly stopped.

A blonde woman wearing sunglasses looked at them and asked seriously, "What are you guys doing? How can you climb so high?"

"Oh, sorry." Dr. Agasa quickly carried Mitsuhiko down, turned around and smiled sheepishly: "I'll let them down right away."

Yuan Tai climbed down by himself and said dissatisfiedly: "It won't hurt to take a look, it won't hurt you, Oba-san."

395. The Curse of Huiyuan

"Please, I'm not an old lady yet, am I?" The woman took off her sunglasses and reached out to remove her golden wavy wig, revealing Sato Miwako's true appearance. She smiled and bent down to joke with Genta, "If you say anything nonsense, I will arrest you."

"It's Officer Sato."

Everyone recognized the person, and Ayumi asked in confusion, "Why are you here?"

"I see." Mitsuhiko said with a smug look on his face, "You must have skipped work on purpose to come here to watch the parade, right?"

"Huh?" Sato Miwako was stunned for a moment.

Ayumi suddenly realized: "That's why you have to disguise yourself."

"That's not the case." Sato Miwako waved her hand: "Of course I have my reasons for doing this, actually..."

Before he could finish his words, a "433" police car pulled up in front of them. Miyamoto Yumi poked her head out and said with a smile, "Are you going on a date with Takagi? I saw it all."

"Yumi."

Miwako Sato didn't expect to see her colleague and good friend here.

Miyamoto Yumi blinked. "You and Officer Takagi were just in the restroom choosing wigs, weren't you? You're quite capable of disguising yourself and having a secret date while on duty."

The policeman sitting next to Yumi Miyamoto also covered his mouth and chuckled.

Seeing that she was being misunderstood more and more, Sato Miwako said helplessly: "I was actually..."

“We are actually on a mission.”

A man wearing black-framed glasses and a light-colored coat walked over.

"Officer Shiratori?" Dr. Agasa stared at Shiratori Renzaburo in amazement. "Why are you dressed like this too?"

Shiratori Jinzaburo explained, "Just now, the Metropolitan Police Department received a suspicious fax saying, 'Something interesting will happen at the parade held today.'"

"That fax is similar to something we received during a previous case, so we've dispatched the First Investigation Division!" Sato Miwako explained with a smile, "Because the criminal knew our appearance, they disguised themselves to investigate this case. But I think this might be a prank played by a fan who's upset with them for winning the championship."

"So it's not a date." Ayumi was a little disappointed.

Miwako Sato smiled and nodded.

Shiratori Jinzaburo took off his glasses, suddenly looked at Sato Miwako, and asked, "Regarding your date, it should be next week, right?"

Sato Miwako's expression became strange.

Miyamoto Yumi pinched her chin and said, "I thought you guys couldn't wait until that day, so you took the risk and dated me while you were on duty. It turns out I was just overthinking it."

Sato Miwako finally couldn't stand it anymore: "Please stop talking nonsense, Takagi and I are innocent, there is nothing like what you said."

At this moment, the street suddenly became lively and countless pedestrians cheered.

The children temporarily put aside the matter of Sato Miwako's [love affair]. Ayumi pointed ahead with an excited look on her face: "It's Toru's car. It seems to be coming this way."

"Then let's try our best to rush to the front." Yuan Tai urged Guangyan as he ran forward: "Guangyan, you have to take good pictures."

Mitsuhiko looked at his video recorder, feeling somewhat embarrassed: "But I've already filmed a lot, the tapes are already..."

Huiyuan reminded: "Did you bring a spare videotape?"

Mitsuhiko reacted: "Oh, yes, I brought an extra volume."

"Then you should change it quickly." Huibara said and followed.

The atmosphere in the crowd became increasingly heated.

Ayumi and the others, who had finally squeezed to the front, saw their idol appear waving his hand and immediately shouted his name loudly.

Watanabe Toru stood next to Huibara and suddenly thought of something. He asked, "I remember you weren't a fan of BIG Osaka? Why are you here to watch the parade?"

Huiyuan replied calmly and truthfully, "I came here to curse them, to curse them not to win the championship next year."

"what?"

Watanabe Toru never thought that this would be the reason.

Mitsuhiko, who was a step behind, also squeezed over. Genta quickly said, "Where have you been? Hurry up and take a picture with the camera, the car is about to leave."

Guangyan looked embarrassed: "The camera, the camera was stolen..."

"Stolen?"

Watanabe Toru and Haibara also looked over.

Guangyan nodded: "It was stolen just now when we were crowded together..."

"There are so many people here, it's a bit difficult to find it again, but let's tell Officer Sato first." Huibara suggested.

Just when everyone was about to go look for Sato Miwako, there was a sudden bang and a car exploded. Flames shot into the sky, attracting everyone's attention.

……

Soon, the police cordoned off the area.

Inspector Megure quickly arrived at the scene. After understanding the situation, he analyzed, "The bomb in this explosion was a plastic explosive. It didn't use a timed detonator, but a wireless remote control. In my opinion, the perpetrator probably used a cell phone or something else to detonate it. Investigators should focus on the direction I just mentioned and search for clues carefully and quickly. We must identify this perpetrator as soon as possible."

"that……"

Just then, Mitsuhiko suddenly interrupted.

Inspector Megure turned around and looked at him: "What's the matter, Mitsuhiko?"

Mitsuhiko said seriously, "I think my camera may have captured the criminals' appearance, because I was near the car that exploded just now, and I was filming with my camera."

"Oh? Is this true?" Inspector Megure was overjoyed.

Mitsuhiko nodded, then said with regret, "It's just that my camera was stolen when we were crowded at 4.3 just now."

"Steal, stole it?"

The excitement that had just appeared on Inspector Megure's face disappeared.

"But I have that tape here." Mitsuhiko took out the replaced videotape from his pocket: "Because there was only a little tape left, I changed the tape before the camera was stolen."

"Well, the camera has been found." Dr. Agasa's voice suddenly sounded behind everyone.

Everyone turned around and saw that Dr. Agasa was holding a camera in his hand.

Mitsuhiko was surprised: "Doctor, where did you find it?"

Dr. Agasa said, "After the tape was removed, it was thrown directly into the trash can."

396. There's another bomb!

"So, the person who stole this camera didn't want the camera itself, but the tape inside," Huibara said calmly. "Maybe he stole it because he wanted to film the parade himself, which means he's just a Spirit fan. Of course, it's also possible that the camera captured something it shouldn't have, which means he's the culprit."

Inspector Megure thought the same thing, so he found a device that could play videotapes and checked Mitsuhiko's previous videos.

The early shots were of the crowd. Mitsuhiko was not a professional photographer, just a kid, so the camera was shaking all the time.

The video continued to play, and during the video, someone was captured approaching the exploded car, but he was just passing by, without any unusual behavior, and he had no time to place a bomb under the car.

The screen ends...

Shiratori Renzaburo sighed softly, "We originally thought this tape might be able to capture the criminal, but now it seems that this hope has been dashed."

"That's not certain," Mitsuhiko said, "perhaps there are some clues among the 16 people I photographed at the beginning."

"That's right." Ayumi also said with hope: "Let's rewind the tape and watch it again."

Just then, Inspector Megure's cell phone rang.

He picked up the phone: "This is Megure... What? Another bomb exploded? This time it was in the telephone booth in front of Haido City Park? Is anyone injured? Okay, I get it... Are you sure it was the same bomb? Hmm..."

After hanging up the phone, Inspector Megure said to the others, "Another explosion has occurred. Judging from the bomb residue and traces at the scene, it was the same type of bomb. The culprit should be the same person. The explosion took place in the telephone booth in front of Haido City Park..."

Officer Takagi was stunned for a moment, then said, "That's the same route as the Spirit Team's parade."

"In other words, the suspect's target isn't the police..." Sato Miwako walked into the room from the doorway and said seriously, "He might be a fan who hates the Tokyo Spirit and is therefore resorting to extreme measures."

Officer Megure nodded and immediately gave the order: "Alright, now that we know the criminal's purpose, we can make the correct arrangements. However, the criminal may have set up a bomb elsewhere. So, immediately mobilize all police officers in the vicinity and go around to the front of the parade route in advance to allow the people watching the parade to take shelter. In addition, quickly find the bomb that the criminal has already planted. Act quickly."

"Yes!!"

The subordinates around him obeyed the order loudly.

Inspector Megure looked at Shiratori Renzaburo again and said, "To be on the safe side, Shiratori, contact the bomb squad immediately and have them stand by at all times."

"I understand." Shiratori Renzaburo nodded.

"And Takagi." Officer Megure stopped Officer Takagi who was about to leave and said, "Just stay here and continue watching the tape. If you find anything, call me immediately."

"Yes." Although he really wanted to go to the scene, since Officer Megure said so, Takagi still obeyed his orders.

After Inspector Megure led the team away, the rest of the people continued watching the videotape.

"Look, it's her, it's her." Yuan Tai suddenly pointed at a woman on the screen and said, "Isn't this woman a little strange? She's been looking in the direction of the camera from the beginning."

Ayumi looked at it seriously: "Really? And she seems a little confused."

Watanabe Toru took a look and couldn't help but complain: "That's because Mitsuhiko was shooting from a relatively low angle, and she was wearing a miniskirt. In short, Mitsuhiko was mistaken for a little pervert."

Hearing Watanabe Toru say this, Mitsuhiko blushed and quickly explained: "But, that's not what I meant at all."

He tried to explain, but his friends didn't seem to care about his explanation at all. Soon, Yuan Tai made a new discovery: "What about this uncle with a long beard? He has been looking around in the crowd from the beginning. It's very suspicious."

Huiyuan said calmly, "Look, isn't he holding a child's shoe? I think he must have come here with his wife and child to watch the parade, and the child's shoe happened to get knocked off by the crowd, so he's just looking for it."

"So that's it."

The three little ones suddenly realized.

Officer Takagi stood behind the children. After watching the videotape several times, he sighed and said, "It always feels the same. There were so many people there. If we say there's something suspicious, everyone seems like a suspect. If we say there's nothing suspicious, everyone seems innocent. It's really difficult for us to find the criminal among them."

Hearing even Officer Takagi say this, the three little ones immediately felt discouraged.

Huiyuan quietly asked Watanabe Toru: "Didn't you find anything?"

Watanabe Toru said calmly, "There are clues, but there's one thing we need to investigate first."

After saying that, he put his hands in his pockets and left the house.

"Wait, wait a minute, Che, where are you going?"

Seeing 057 Watanabe Toru leaving, the others hurriedly followed him. They didn't know what Watanabe Toru had discovered, but they only knew that Watanabe Toru would not let them down.

A few of them returned to the mailbox in front of Yuantai and stood there to watch the parade.

Seeing Watanabe Toru looking intently, Dr. Agasa panted and said, "Toru, is there something wrong with this mailbox?"

Watanabe Toru turned around and said, "Do you still know when Mitsuhiko and Genta stood on this mailbox?"

Yuan Tai shook his head: "How can we possibly remember this clearly?"

Huiyuan took the camera from Mitsuhiko and said, "Just look at the video. It will show the time when it is filming."

"That's right." Mitsuhiko nodded vigorously: "I remember that I was filming Archer at that time."

Huihara fast-forwarded the videotape and then froze the scene: "Archer appeared at 2:23 in the afternoon. It wasn't until Officer Sato showed up five minutes later that Mitsuhiko and Genta came down from the mailbox."

"But what does this have to do with the criminals?" Yuan Tai asked in confusion.

Watanabe Toru pointed to the time on the mailbox and said, "You should understand if you look here."
