Chapter 1201 Exploring the scar Akai
The weather is fine today, and since it’s Saturday again, the business of Rice Kwab Department Store is naturally good.
The people who come and go come here to watch movies or go shopping, which is much more lively than working days.
Although he came to investigate the trace of Shuichi Akai, after finding nothing, Judy couldn’t help but feel a little discouraged.
After saying goodbye to Conan and others, she and Carmel, who was with her, picked a cafe in the mall.
But just halfway through the meal, Judy received a call from James: “Sorry Boss, I haven’t finished my lunch yet.”
“Hey Judy, how long are you going to have lunch?” James said helplessly on the phone.
“Well…Because something happened before, we are still having lunch in the coffee shop of Rice Kwa.” Judy explained embarrassedly.
“Something happened?” James asked in surprise. “Did something go wrong?”
“No, no, that’s not it.”
Judy quickly denied: “It’s just investigating some things, but there’s nothing to gain.
Carmel is going to the bathroom now, and we’ll meet you when he gets back. ”
“Okay, I see.” James nodded.
“That’s it for now, I haven’t finished the iced tea I ordered.” Judy said goodbye to James, hung up the phone and walked towards the restaurant.
On the other side, in the men’s bathroom, after the convenience, Carmel was absent-mindedly washing his hands.
‘What’s going on, Miss Judy’s attitude has changed a lot recently, as if she’s a completely different person…’
Carmel washed his hands mechanically, but his mind was a little distracted: ‘I remember the change seems to be after the last robbery at the Imperial Bank…
Although Miss Judy told me not to tell Mr. James, what the **** is going on with that black hat…’
As soon as Carmel thought of this, he saw a black peaked cap appear in the mirror image of the mirror.
But when he saw the profile of the man under the hat, he couldn’t help being stunned on the spot.
Because the appearance of the other party is exactly the same as that of Shuichi Akai!
Carmel subconsciously followed the movement of the man in the mirror, but the mirror image of the other party disappeared in the next moment.
He turned to look at the exit to the bathroom and saw a man in a black jacket walking outside.
“Wait, wait, wait!”
Carmel ran out of the bathroom in disbelief, shouting to stop the other party, but the man’s footsteps did not stop at all.
When he chased after him and ran outside the mall, he found that the bustling mall with people coming and going had long since disappeared.
‘That person just now, could it be Mr. Akai! ’
Carmel looked around and picked a direction to run.
Whether it was an illusion or something else, he always had to look for it!
— Carmel search —
In the cafe, putting down the iced tea glass she had finished drinking, Judy folded her arms and pondered the results of her previous investigation.
“It’s really weird. If a man who doesn’t speak and has burn scars on his face buys a hat, the clerk at the counter will definitely not forget such a unique person…”
‘But after visiting for so long, none of the clerks had an impression of this. Is it true that there is no such person to buy hats? ’
‘But if so, who am I seeing? ’
Recalling the experience at the Imperial Bank, Judy did not believe that the other party was a non-existent character.
After all, at that time, he was sitting next to the other party, and he actually touched the other party.
But when the bank robbery was solved, he did not find the other party among the hostages, as if that person did not exist at all, and completely lost the trace of the other party.
Even today’s investigation is the same, no one remembers each other at all.
The stunned Judy came back to her senses, and her eyes began to focus.
The next moment, Judy’s expression changed, and she found that the base of the cup she saw was a little unusual.
‘Strange, the corner of the coaster is bent? ‘ Judy froze for a moment and recalled: ‘Is it like this before? ’
Judy, who felt strange, picked up the glass with only ice cubes left, picked up the coaster and looked at the opposite side, and her pupils contracted violently the next moment.
Because on the back of the coaster made of cardboard, there was a sentence written on it.
[Run away, this piece is dangerous]
‘Shuichi! ’
Judy’s face was full of horror, she immediately stood up and looked around, but she didn’t see any suspicious figure in the store at all.
But soon, Judy took a deep breath and forced herself to calm down.
Since the other party is unwilling to show up to meet them, it may also have their own considerations.
Or maybe he had to hide his tracks because of information he didn’t know.
But no matter what, the reminder of the other party cannot be ignored now.
Pressing the urge to find Shuichi Akai in her heart, Judy started calling Carmel’s phone number to contact him and join him.
…
Compared to when Carmel met a person suspected of being Shuichi Akai, Judy received a warning about Shuichi Akai.
On the other side, Kogoro Maori was very upset, because his investigation yielded nothing at all.
Maori Kogoro and the others were fine when they came, it was lunchtime, but after the three people investigated and visited several counters, the flow of people increased.
And when there are more people, it will be a lot of trouble to ask the clerk. After all, everyone has to entertain guests, so the progress of the investigation is getting slower and slower.
After finally browsing the counters on this floor, I found nothing.
Not even the clerk at the counter has heard of the so-called “red T-shirt”.
“Really, it’s almost one o’clock now.” In front of the elevator door, looking at the watch on his wrist, Mouri Kogoro said impatiently, “Why haven’t you come yet.”
“Maybe there is something delayed.” Xiaolan looked around and said, “Let’s look for it…”
“Don’t do it, let’s go!” Mouri Kogoro looked at the growing crowd around him, walked impatiently to the elevator, and kept pressing the down button: “Let’s go back now!”
“What’s with this red paper bag?”
Compared to Mouri Kogoro who kept pressing the down button, Conan on the side noticed the paper bag next to the elevator with a look of surprise on his face.
“Could it be that someone forgot to take it?” Xiao Lan leaned on her knees and bent over to check the inside of the paper bag.
“That, that… I advise you not to touch that bag casually…”
At this moment, a middle-aged man behind him pointed at the pink paper bag beside the elevator with a trembling voice: “Because, because there…it might be a bomb…”
“Eh? Bomb!” Xiaolan and Conan turned their heads in surprise, looking at the man with horror on their faces.
“bomb!?”
Hearing Xiaolan’s exclamation, Mouri Kogoro, who was pressing the elevator, immediately turned around and walked quickly towards the bald middle-aged man behind him with a questioning look on his face: “How do you know that there is a bomb in that paper bag!? ”
“That, that’s because… I’m in this state too…”
While talking, the middle-aged man unbuttoned the button and pulled the shirt straight away, with a look of despair on his face: “That’s why I know…”
Conan and the others watched the man pull off his jacket and saw the bombs tightly tied to his upper body!
There were two rows of bombs tied to the man’s body, four in each row, which even looked bloated.
But these are not as terrifying as the bombs bring.
A bomb is terrifying enough, not to mention the middle-aged man in front of him has eight tied to his body!
Almost instantly, Xiaolan screamed in horror, even Mouri Kogoro and Conan were horrified.
And because of Xiaolan’s exclamation, people near the elevator heard the sound and cast their eyes on it.
It is human nature to watch the fun, but when they gathered around and saw the bomb tied to the man, they all showed fear.
“Hey! Why are you tying this thing!” Maori Kogoro looked at the other party with a look of horror and said anxiously.
“I don’t know either!”
The middle-aged man covered his spread out clothes with a look of panic: “I was going to the bathroom to go to the bathroom, but I was suddenly unconscious.
When I woke up, I saw a man with a mask strapped this thing on me.
Not only that, but the man threatened me with the same paper bags that you see in the elevator here in front of the elevator and the stairs.
If he doesn’t do what he says, he says he’ll just detonate the bomb…”
“Anyway, let’s call the police first about the current situation!”
After listening to the man’s words, Mouri Kogoro immediately took out his mobile phone, “In this case, you must contact the police immediately…”
“Don’t call the police! The man said that as soon as he saw signs that the police were approaching the department store, he would press the detonation button immediately!”
The middle-aged man said with cold sweat and trembling: “In addition, if anyone escapes during this journey, it will also cause an explosion…”
“how come…”
“No way…”
“Then what should we do…”
Hearing the conversation between Maori Kogoro and the middle-aged man, the crowd beside the elevator was disturbed, but they were shocked by the power of the bomb and did not dare to escape.
Some were timid and even hugged their companions.
“Then what is the prisoner’s request?” Kogoro Mori asked in a deep voice.
“That person said to find out the true identity of the sender who mailed him thirteen red T-shirts in this backpack…”
Hearing Kogoro Mouri’s words, the pale-faced bald middle-aged man put down the blue satchel on his shoulders and explained at the same time.
“Red, red T-shirt?!”
Hearing the middle-aged man’s words, Mouri Kogoro stuttered unconsciously. He never thought that the client would actually ask him to investigate in such a way.
Even when Conan heard the news, he couldn’t help but be surprised. He didn’t expect that this client would compete for such an extreme coercive investigation.
Thinking of this, he immediately regained his senses, took out his mobile phone and sent a text message to Tang Ze to explain the situation.
After all, what he told Tang Ze before was that Judy and Carmel were investigating the “fake Akai” in the mall, but they didn’t tell him that they would encounter such a dangerous situation.
Now the whereabouts of Judy and the others are obviously unimportant. How to remove the bomb crisis and save customers like the Rice Krispies Market is the top priority.
“He said the guy who sent him this red T-shirt must be on this floor!”
The middle-aged man’s words caused a commotion again, and Conan didn’t expect the prisoner to be so sure that the person he was looking for was on this floor.
Looking around subconsciously, there was no other expression of fear on the faces of the densely packed guests.
But what he didn’t see was the squinting man and the man with the scar on his face watching the scene behind the cover of the crowd.
On the other hand, an ordinary man looked down and checked the content of the text message after receiving the text message.
That’s right, it was Tang Ze who arrived here after changing clothes!
But he did not show up, just like the other two, hiding in the crowd and quietly watching the development of the situation.
Knowing the plot, he naturally won’t take the case he understands too seriously. What he needs to do is to calm the undercurrent in this rice flower shopping mall and ensure that the secret confrontation can unfold smoothly.
The case on the bright side can be handed over to Conan, all he needs to do is to watch Akai Shuichi and Amuro Toru in the crowd.
Although the two of them were well hidden in the crowd, they still locked each other’s position under Tang Ze’s deliberate search.
As for the two of them, they didn’t know anything about Tang Ze’s surveillance. After all, he was completely a stranger at the moment, and they didn’t know him at all.
It can be said that it is completely the state of the enemy’s darkness and our own.
Of course, Shuuichi Akai’s allies don’t need to pay too much attention, Toru Amuro is the target he needs to pay special attention to.
After receiving Conan’s text message, in order to prevent the other party from being too worried, Tang Ze still sent a text message to Conan, telling him that the bomb was fake.
Knowing the existence of the plot, after arriving at the mall and seeing the bags next to the stairs and escalators, he directly opened the bags and checked them, confirming that the bombs in them were all fakes, only emitting smoke.
When the man approached and talked with Conan and the others, he also pretended to be a passerby waiting for the elevator to endure the bad air in the mall, and confirmed that the other party was carrying all the good stuff.
After Tang Ze sent the text message, Conan’s cell phone rang shortly after, he quickly took it out to check the content, and then let out a long breath.
Of course, he also kept in mind what Tang Ze said in the text message, don’t look around after reading the text message, and resist not to look for Tang Ze’s whereabouts.
But he already knew that criminal Tang Ze had already arrived at the mall, and he was probably hiding in the crowd at this moment.
And when he looked at the middle-aged man again, the pressure of hanging on by a thread was gone. UU reading www.uukanshu. com
After all, Criminal Tang Ze personally inspected the handbags next to the elevators, and the other party’s body was also confirmed with super olfactory sense. Conan still trusts Tang Ze’s judgment very much.
But he did not intend to stand up immediately, but planned to wait and see the changes for the time being.
“After all, there is still a “red T-shirt” puzzle that has not been solved, and the case is not over. ’
Conan thought to himself.
