I'm in Detective Conan, and the system has appointed Batman.

Chapter 630 The Ferris Wheel in Danger
"The Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department's advance preparations have paid off. Kaito Kid's hang glider is moving towards the Tsutsumi River. The officers of the Second Investigation Division have completed the trapping net and are ready to catch him!"

Inside the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department.

Kogoro Mouri and Ran Mouri sat together, watching the news on the television hanging on the wall, a look of surprise on their faces.

what?
When did the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department's equipment become this advanced? They didn't upgrade their equipment when I was there, but they did as soon as I left?

That's a bit unfair.

Kogoro Mouri stroked his chin.

A hint of suspicion appeared on his face. Ran Mouri, who was standing next to him, blinked and asked curiously.

"Dad, what's wrong?"

Why are you making that face? Does Daddy like that Phantom Thief Kid too?

Maori Kogoro:?

No, don't disgust me.

How could I possibly like such a flashy white-clad phantom thief? I'm already that old, and I'm not even a woman!

Kogoro Mouri shook his head and replied.

"I find this a bit strange."

"How come Inspector Nakamori has suddenly become so capable? Is the flying Phantom Thief Kid actually a dummy, and the real Phantom Thief Kid is impersonating him and directing the police?"

He didn't have much of an impression of Nakamori Ginzo.

What impressed me most was that this guy led all the police cars of the Second Investigation Division all the way from Tokyo to Hakodate to chase after the Phantom Thief Kid.

Go ahead and pursue her.

After chasing it all night, they discovered they were chasing a fake, and the actor who played the role of Shinjō Kō ransacked almost two cities.

He doesn't seem very smart at all.

This guy is suddenly showing amazing predictive abilities; he's chasing after Kaito Kid?

It's impossible no matter how you look at it...

"Excuse me, please change the channel."

"That's what the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department member said."

Hearing this, Kogoro Mouri tossed the remote control to him with some confusion, while the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department officer quickly changed the channel.

The live television broadcast changed.

The next moment, what appeared before Kogoro Mouri and his companions was the scene at Beika Department Store.

Looking at Inspector Megure and the others, who were fully prepared and ready to go.

A look of surprise flashed across Kogoro Mouri's eyes. He stood up abruptly and asked in a low voice.

"what happened?"

"Has something big happened in Tokyo again? Come to think of it, I saw quite a few police cars going out earlier. Could it be because of this?"

Hear this.

The Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department officer hesitated for a moment, considering whether or not to tell Kogoro Mouri about it.

Thinking back to Kogoro Mouri's past, he was a celebrity at the police academy and a former police officer of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department, so he was trustworthy.

The Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department officer finally spoke.

"Detective Mouri".

"The bomber who caused two explosions three and seven years ago has reappeared and is now supported by an unknown force."

"The extent of this explosion exceeded expectations."

"The Ferris wheel at Beika Department Store is one of the locations where the bomb was planted; it must be defused..."

"what are you talking about?"

Kogoro Mouri frowned.

He left his job quite some time ago and was unaware of the details of the two bombings.

but.

He's been to Beika Department Store quite a few times; if he didn't know about the bomber, how could he not know about Beika Department Store?
"Since there's a bomb on the Ferris wheel."

"Why send police officers up to the Ferris wheel to defuse a bomb when all that would be needed is to evacuate nearby residents?"

"Wouldn't the police officer be dead if the bomb went off?"

"I asked Kogoro Mouri." Upon hearing this, the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department officer hesitated briefly before replying.

"Detective Mouri".

"This bomber had one particular characteristic: he liked to play games. He would place the next explosion location before the previous one detonated."

"That is to say."

"Even if we evacuated the residents near Beihu Shopping Mall in time, so that the Ferris wheel would not harm other civilians even if it was destroyed."

"Then wait until the other bomb explodes."

"Many more people will be injured or even killed as a result, and we need to be responsible for the other civilians."

So you're basically just sending people to their deaths?

Kogoro Mouri immediately understood what was going on. He frowned, but couldn't find any other solution for the moment.

They wouldn't let the police officers go up.

When bombs explode elsewhere, they will cause many deaths and injuries.

But what difference is there between sending police officers up there and sending them to their deaths in vain?
"Is there such a thing?"

Ran Mouri covered her mouth in surprise.

She understood what it meant.

This criminal is truly despicable, using such a double bind to deal with the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department. I wonder what he went through.

I wish Shinichi were here.

If it were Shinichi, he could easily and accurately find a way to debunk the bomb without killing anyone.

What are you still doing here?

"Someone has sent a new fax to headquarters. Detective White Horse is preparing to decipher the contents of the second fax. Stop looking at it."

Another Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department officer appeared from the side; this officer's rank was clearly higher.

He and Kogoro Mouri exchanged a glance.

He nodded slightly to the former senior police academy officer and then led the officer towards the conference room.

See here.

Kogoro Mouri's heart sank.

This situation is extremely troublesome.

Even if he hadn't resigned from the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department, in this situation, he would at most have had to personally defuse the bomb.

Even as the world's greatest detective, he was helpless in the face of the situation.

"Dad, look."

"Officer Sato and Officer Takagi have boarded the Ferris wheel!"

Ran Mouri's exclamation rang out.

Immediately, Kogoro Mouri turned to look at the television, paying attention to the situation on the Ferris wheel.

------

At this very moment, at the Beihu Shopping Mall Ferris Wheel.

The giant Ferris wheel had already been activated under the threat of the criminals. Officer Sato and Officer Takagi stood inside the gradually rising Ferris wheel cabin, watching the bomb in front of them.

The bomb is still on its countdown.

This bomb could detonate at any moment, sending the two people inside the Ferris wheel cabin to heaven.

"You shouldn't have come."

Sato Miwako said somewhat dejectedly, "Ever since I saw Takagi Wataru's outfit near the anime parade."

She then subconsciously hallucinated Matsuda Jinpei.

From that moment on, she made up her mind that she would not allow Matsuda Jinpei's situation to repeat itself with Takagi Wataru.

But things didn't go as she hoped.

"It's alright, Officer Sato."

Takagi Wataru said earnestly.

Let's face this challenge together!
