Maori Kogoro began to understand everything

"Miss Sawaguchi was next to the stage at that time, right?"

"Yes," Sawaguchi nodded worriedly, "I'll operate the elevator over there."

"What about that pearl necklace?" asked Inspector Megure.

"She said it was a gift from someone, but I don't know who it was..."

“When was the painting delivered?”

"It was delivered last night," Sawaguchi looked at Kisaragi Minemizu who was leaning on a cane beside him, "We moved in together under the supervision of Kisaragi-san."

Inspector Megure frowned and looked at the old man: "In other words, the person who will have the chance to play the piano wire trick in the end is..."

"Unfortunately, I don't know either." The old man kept a stern face.

"Speaking of which," Officer Shiratori said suspiciously, "Mr. Kisaragi, I heard that you were angry because Mio bought your paintings and then sold them at a high price."

"Humph," the old man said coldly, "I won't kill anyone just for that kind of thing! And you just mentioned the cases of Mr. Oki and Mr. Hara. It sounds like a series of murders, right? If it's true as you said, then I have an alibi when Mr. Hara was killed in the second case. Doesn't that mean I'm not the murderer?"

Maori stood aside, looking at old man Ruyue silently.

The matter of the small wine glass has not been revealed yet. If Old Man Ruyue had nothing to do with the previous two incidents, it would be impossible for him to leave the small wine glass at the scene.

but……

The prerequisite is to enter the customs according to Old Man Ru Yue and the previous events.

On the surface, it seems that Old Man Ruyue has an alibi, but this does not rule out the suspicion of the old man, because the small wine glass in the second incident was not left at the time of the incident, and the shooting was clean and neat...

Maori's eyes narrowed.

If Mr. Yuan's murder was not committed by the same criminal, then Old Man Ruyue's alibi and the issue of leaving the small wine glass behind only after the blood had coagulated would make sense.

"Oh, right," Fengjian Yingyan recalled, "When the scene became dark, I felt as if someone ran to Mio and said something to her. At that time, I smelled a faint scent of perfume..."

Sawaguchi hurriedly explained: "That person was me, but... I went there to confirm the next procedures with the president..."

Mao Li did not pay too much attention to Zekou, because he knew very well that the real culprit should be old man Kisaragi. But what was Kisaragi's motive? Why did he kill three people including his students?

I am speechless. Whether it was Teiji Moriya before or Minemi Kisaragi now, none of these artists are content - are they all learning from their predecessor, the art student who fought in World War II?

Mao Li was thinking as he walked back and forth along the stage, when he bumped into Ai head-on.

"Are you looking for this?" Ai held up a scattered pearl, "It just fell in the corner of the stage."

Mao Li took the pearl, looked back at Kisaragi Minemizu, frowned and said, "Xiao Ai, there is indeed something wrong with this case. Mr. Yuan is likely to have been killed by those guys in the organization... I will let the doctor take you and the children back first."

"Uncle, what about you?"

"Ding!" In the power room on the fourth underground floor of Building A, timers distributed everywhere were flashing. The entire area was blocked by the explosion, and flames were rising wildly.

As if a switch had been pressed, explosions began to appear in the middle floors of the building, and the entire building was plunged into darkness in the midst of the violent shaking.

"Bang bang bang-!"

"what happened?"

Before Maori could say anything more, he quickly grabbed Ai. As the building shook, the guests at the scene also became slightly confused, and everyone was a little at a loss.

"Is it an earthquake?"

"It does not seem……"

Conan immediately ran to the side of the venue and looked outside through the floor-to-ceiling windows. He found that there was nothing wrong with Building B and it seemed that only Building A had problems.

Fengjian Yingyan urgently contacted the security room: "What happened?"

The security director said urgently amid the rapid alarm: "There was an explosion in the motor room and generator room on the fourth floor underground! And the computer room on the 4th floor!"

"There was an explosion in the computer room too?!"

"How is this possible? There is a main computer in there that Tokiwa Group uses to store important data. Isn't the security level the highest?"

"It's too late to deal with this!" the security director shouted, "There's also a fire on the inside of the building on the 40th floor. Start evacuating the venue quickly!"

Maori silently looked at Kazama Hidehiko who was in contact with the security guard.

If the explosion in the power room could be a coincidence, the explosion in the computer room on the 40th floor at the same time is very problematic. It is obviously man-made...

"It seems that what you said is right, uncle," Huibara said softly, "For members who betray the organization, they will destroy all evidence, including the computer data in the hands of the traitors and even the people around them... This time, even the main computer of the entire Tokiwa Group was destroyed..."

"Why at this time?" Maori couldn't help but look at Kazama Hidehiko again.

If this guy hadn't been there, I would have thought another Moriya Teiji had come...

But now things are even more troublesome, as the Black Organization has targeted this place.

Officer Megure looked at everyone present and said in a deep voice: "Are all the elevators unusable?"

"The observation elevator might still be usable," Kazama Hidehiko pressed the button for the observation elevator and was pleasantly surprised to find that the power was not cut off. "Because it is for VIPs, the power supply is set separately."

“How many people are there?”

"It can carry nine people."

Hundreds of guests at the scene looked at Inspector Megure and his team nervously. No one was indifferent if they could take the elevator and be rescued first.

Officer Shiratori frowned and said, "It will take too long to transport everyone. Is there any other way?"

"If you take the emergency ladder to the 60th floor, you can take the communication bridge to Building B next door."

"Okay!" Officer Megure groaned and gave the order, "Let the elderly, women, and children take the observation elevator down, and the rest of the people take the escape stairs to evacuate!"

"Let's go." Maori put a borrowed hat on Haibara and asked Haibara to follow Ayumi and the others into the elevator.

"uncle……"

The children walked to the elevator, stopped and looked back at Maori.

"Don't worry, I'll be down soon."

Maori chuckled and nodded, looking at Conan who was left behind due to the overload.

Inspector Megure glanced at the remaining people and said, "Then the remaining ladies, Conan, and Mr. Kisaragi please take the next bus..."

"I'll go down the stairs," Ruyuefengshui snorted with a straight face.

"But, Mr. Ruyue, you..."

"Don't treat me like an old man!"

"Okay," Officer Megure said no more, turned to Hidehiko Kazama and said, "Mr. Kazama, please lead the way for us... Shiratori, you guys go first, I'll follow you later..."

"it is good."

A large group of people at the venue followed Feng Jianying and left. Only a few women were left in front of the elevator, Xiaolan, Sonoko and Conan...

"Officer Megure," Maori said, "Leave this to me. You can go down as well."

"Ah?" Inspector Megure was stunned.

"I should be able to take the elevator together," Maori looked at Megure and Professor Agasa, whose bodies were comparable, and chuckled, "But officer, you..."

Officer Megure coughed lightly, handed the flashlight to Maori and said, "Okay, Maori brother, be careful."

"Ah."

Maori watched Inspector Megure run away, frowning and lost in thought.

There was no movement after the first wave of explosions, and why did they specifically blow up the power room?

To stop the sprinklers from working?

No, since the computer room was blown up, it shouldn't matter whether the fire is put out or not...

Or is it to deal with the people attending the party?

However, many people had already left before the explosion, and the power supply of the observation elevator was not damaged, and the communication bridge was intact...

Chapter 111: The End of the Road

The lookout elevator returned to the 75th floor and opened its door, and the rest of the people walked into the elevator.

Mao Li took a step forward, and suddenly his hair stood on end. His eyes suddenly narrowed and he grabbed Yuan Zi who was walking towards the elevator.

"What's wrong, uncle?" Yuanzi asked in confusion.

Maori shook his head and said, "Conan, you guys take the elevator down first. Sonoko and I will go to the communication bridge."

"Eh?" Yuanzi's eyes widened. "Why?"

Conan's eyes fell on Sonoko's hairstyle, and his expression changed as well: "Could it be..."

……

"Ugh——!"

There were fire trucks parked under the skyscrapers, sirens blaring continuously through the night sky, and firefighting teams were taking action under the illumination of lights.

"Quick!"

"How many people are there up there?"

"It seems that only the last group of people need to take the elevator, and everyone else has already rushed to the communication bridge!"

"Why is the elevator stuck on the 75th floor?" The fire chief looked at the only observation elevator outside Building A that was lit. "Can we get in touch with it?"

"Uncle..." At the banquet hall on the 75th floor, Sonoko looked at Maori worriedly, and everyone else was also waiting for Maori to make the final decision.

Now elevators are indeed the safest and fastest way to escape.

"It's okay," Maori smiled at Sonoko, then looked at Conan and Xiaolan and said, "Go down."

The elevator door slowly closed, and Mao Li only had time to glance at the building in the distance through the gap.

If the Black Organization was really responsible for the explosion, they would have just blown up the computer room, but they chose to blow up the power room as well, forcing the elderly, the weak, women and children to leave through the observation elevator outside. I'm afraid there is only one purpose...

This time, I'm afraid it's not just targeting Yuan Jiaming, but also targeting an individual target among the guests, someone who will take the observation elevator.

If it was Gin who set up the trap, there should be a sniper rifle aimed at the observation elevator on the building in the distance, right?

Ai has already succeeded, which means that Gin’s target is only Sonoko, who is somewhat similar to "Sherry".

From a distance, it is indeed easy to mistake Sonoko for someone who has changed her hairstyle...

"Uncle," Yuanzi shouted softly with tears in her eyes, "Xiaolan and the others have already gone down, can we go too?"

"it is good."

Maori came to his senses, rushed to the escape stairs with a flashlight, and took another look at the booth before leaving.

He couldn't take his mountain bike with him, and Conan's supercar wasn't much better. In the face of this disaster, it didn't seem to make any difference whether it was valuable or not...

What matters is that people are alive.

Maori, with a heavy face, continued to go downstairs with Yuanzi.

Although he had already raised the danger level of the organization to an extremely high level in his mind, he did not expect that the organization would be so cruel as to directly blow up a building - this did not look like an underground criminal organization at all, it was simply a terrorist organization.

and many more!

Maori's expression changed.

He suddenly realized that the mountain bike was not that heavy, so why didn't he think of asking Conan to help carry it down?

My car!

"Uncle," Sonoko followed Maori up more than ten flights of stairs, out of breath, "Why...why do we have to run down? If we followed Xiaolan and the others...we would have already gone down..."

After finally getting down to the 60th floor, Yuanzi gasped uncomfortably, "No... I can't run anymore..."

"It's almost there."

Maori was walking through the corridor with a flashlight, when he suddenly heard hurried footsteps and Mitsuhiko's surprised shout coming from the other side.

"We found the communication bridge!"

"What's going on?" Mao Li looked at Sonoko in confusion, "Weren't they the first group to take the elevator down?"

On the rooftop of a building a few hundred meters in front of the Twin Towers, Gin was observing the situation with a telescope. When he saw that the observation elevator was no longer in use, he frowned and called: "It's me, how are you doing over there?"

"No," Vodka hid in the corridor of the bridge connecting Building B and monitored the refugees, "Only men came, and there was no one who looked like the traitor Shirley... Could it be a mistake?"

"Humph," Gin sneered as he looked at the flames spreading upwards, "She must have noticed that we were looking for her, so she stayed up there. I definitely won't give them a chance to escape. Blow up the bridge!"
