Daily Spy Life in the Detective Conan World

Chapter 841 I Am Too
Xia Chuan walked over to Yuri, patted him on the shoulder, and asked, "Have you found all the bombs? Did you miss any?"

Upon learning that the concert hall was surrounded by bombs and that plastic explosives had been planted on all twenty-four main beams, Xia Chuan immediately notified Yuri.

His time was limited, and he needed to focus more on the proposal ceremony. Yuri was a public security police officer, and although he wasn't as good as the explosive ordnance disposal team at defusing bombs, he was still capable of it. So, he was asked to assess the situation before deciding whether to defuse the bomb himself or call the explosive ordnance disposal team.

Yuri glared at Xia Chuan with displeasure, then composed himself and nodded, saying, "Found them. These plastic bombs should be the batch that was lost in Iwate Prefecture a month ago. I've already investigated Pu and Takumi's transfer information, and if I'm not mistaken, it was a dark web transaction."

"The timers and remote control signals have been removed, so these bombs are just decorations now. It seems he planned to blow up this concert hall from the very beginning."

"Not bad, you actually dared to defuse the bomb?"

Sensing his brother-in-law's sentiment, Yuri unconsciously straightened his back and a smile appeared on his lips.

He then shook his head, still shaken: "Luckily, it was discovered in advance. If another landmark building in Nishitama City had been blown up, the leaders would have been questioned to the point of questioning their very existence, and the entire leadership of Nishitama City would have had to be replaced."

"When did you start paying attention to this?" Xia Chuan patted his shoulder teasingly, then squeezed it hard, and said calmly, "What I'm curious about now is that the distillery hasn't made much of a move."

“Indeed, my three deputy team leaders walked around the campus again and again, and didn’t find any suspicious people. What do you think Gin and his group are up to?”

"Or did they plan this all along?" Xia Chuan pondered, frowning.

Baileys gave him limited information, including that the other party was still on standby and had not yet met Vermouth, which made him uneasy.

"Tonight is the most important day of my sister's life. I hope your arrangements are appropriate. If they don't satisfy my sister, then I will never let her marry you."

Yuri, who was only about 1.75 meters tall, was tightly gripping Xia Chuan's collar. The distance between the two was no more than a finger's width, and Xia Chuan could easily feel Yuri's heavy breathing.

"I know, she is the most important person to you, and she is also the most important person to me."

These words made Yuri relax a little. He loosened his collar, clapped his hands, and glanced at Xia Chuan out of the corner of his eye: "Also, why invite so many people? If the brewery comes in, it will be difficult for us to leave."

Tonight's proposal ceremony was attended by the Mori family, Sonoko Suzuki, two of Yoru's good friends from the Metropolitan Police Department, and Anya and Ai Haibara were also in the way, since they are two five-year-old children.

The same thing happened at the Twilight Villa in Natsukawa last time. As for Ai Haibara, she was adopted. Sometimes Yuri even felt that Anya wasn't his biological daughter.

In addition, Yuri suspected that Natsukawa had invited other people, but they had not yet arrived at the scene.

“It’s more dangerous to leave the two children at home. Now that you’re all out here, I wouldn’t feel comfortable even if you took her to the police headquarters.”

Yuri didn't reply. He lit a cigarette, glared at Xia Chuan, and left without looking back as his gleaming leather shoes stomped on the solid marble floor.

At the corner, he suddenly stopped: "I will protect my sister with my life."

Watching the other person completely disappear around the corner, Xia Chuan's smile faded. After a few seconds of pause, he gently moved his lips and uttered a few words.

"So it is with me."

Domoto Music Academy Cafe.

This is one of the few cafes on campus.

Because it's a contracted coffee shop, the food is unpleasant, and apart from freshmen, very few students or teachers actually experience this problem.

Therefore, this place naturally became a good location for intelligence gathering.

As dusk fell, the streetlights began to illuminate the scene. Morofushi Takaaki withdrew his gaze and looked at Yamato Kansuke and Uehara Yui as they entered the coffee shop.

Yamato Kansuke, wearing a security guard's jacket, was blind in one eye and used a cane, making him look particularly ferocious. Before he even entered the door, several students saw him and went around him.

Yui Uehara was dressed in a female teacher's uniform, not only wearing glasses and 0D stockings, but also carrying teaching materials in her arms. She walked with a swaying gait, which unconsciously reminded people of certain educational films.

Of course, as a loyal fan of Zhuge Liang, Zhuge Liang was not interested in the woman's appearance or clothing and was still immersed in his own thoughts.

"Hey, why are you all teachers, and I'm the only one who has to dress like a security guard?"

Yamato Kansuke sat down while complaining, picked up the coffee on the table, and drank it down in one gulp without even looking at it.

Morofushi Takaaki, expressionless, quickly unfolded the napkin in front of him.

Sure enough, the next moment Yamato Kansuke spat out all his coffee, which landed right on the napkin.

"Hey, is this dishwater? No, even dishwater doesn't taste as bad as this."

"Looks like you didn't bother to find out anything properly. You don't even know what the coffee tastes like," Morofushi Takaaki said sarcastically, pointing to the sugar cube box on the table. "Just add some sugar."

"Tch, I don't want to! I think you're doing this on purpose, you bastard!" Yamato Kansuke quickly waved his hand.

“The coffee at this cafe is terrible, but it’s the only place like this where you don’t get noticed,” Yui Uehara explained, replacing Takaaki Morofushi.

"You talk as if you know him very well."

The rough-looking man pursed his lips, clearly a little jealous.

"By the way, have you guys discovered anything?"

He first glanced at Uehara Yui, then looked at Morofushi Takaaki.

Of the three, Morofushi Komei had the most discerning eye and amazing observational skills, able to notice details that the others missed.

Yui Uehara did the same. She rested her forearm on the table, instinctively reaching for her coffee cup to take a sip, but quickly realized her mistake and withdrew her hand.

"I've found some," Zhu Fu Gaoming replied casually, still looking out the window.

"What?"×2
“Yuri deliberately sent us away; I suspect he and Natsukawa have some shady scheme.”

"Really? If there was a plan, why would they call us over? As long as Yuri doesn't report this, they could just come quietly, right?" Yamato Kansuke waved his hand in rebuttal.

"Actually, I also have some doubts."

Uehara Yui disagreed: "I have investigated Yuri's previous operation files. Whenever there is a plan involving the brewery, he would ask Mr. Kuroda to mobilize some mobile team members, and he would also borrow public security police from other groups for emergencies."

"But not this time."

Zhu Fu Gaoming rested his chin on his hands, scrutinizing the students who occasionally walked by outside, but then uttered an unbelievable discovery: "That's right, this time he didn't do that, but instead stayed in the concert hall mysteriously."
