Detective Conan: Beika Town's Complete Transformation into Los Santos

Page 68

However, Gin believes that either Shuichi Akai or Sherry must be in the building and have contact with the police, otherwise the police would not have launched a targeted search against his subordinates.

Since that's the case, let's just blow up the main computer room first.

With surveillance frequency reduced, there's no telling when Shirley might sneak in; it's safest to just blow it up.

"Shirley... let me find you."

Gin's expression was slightly twisted.

Suddenly, a sound came through the headset.

"Boss Gin, a man and a woman escaped from Building B, but they're not the target. Should we arrest them?"

Gin frowned, thought for a moment and decided to keep an eye on things. "Send eight of you to go and check it out. Don't act rashly."

The fewer people following them, the better, but right now he needs to determine if these two are related to Shuichi Akai and his group.

If it's not a problem, having a large number of people can scare the target away and clear the area.

If there's a connection, on average it's 4 against 1, the odds of winning seem much higher.

This time, he mobilized almost all the peripheral members in the Tokyo area who did not have important tasks, totaling 132 people.

With the equipment in place, this force is enough to temporarily besiege the Metropolitan Police Department.

Meanwhile, the people in Building A finally realized that an explosion had occurred.

The building shaking, coupled with the police report, made the already tense atmosphere in the conference room even more so.

Upon hearing the news, Tokiwa Mio fainted immediately.

She knew it.

After tonight, the Tokiwa Foundation will never recover.

I don't know how long it will take to recover to my current strength, let alone return to my peak or even go further.

The sustained high pressure over the past few days finally reached her mental breaking point.

Kogoro Mouri acted quickly, pulling his beautiful junior into his arms and looking at Inspector Megure with a questioning gaze, asking what to do next.

The original culprit, Ruyue Fengshui, is now completely bewildered.

There was absolutely no action.

The plan is about to be exceeded.

He originally intended to kill Oki Iwamatsu and Tokiwa Mio in turn.

The results are better now.

The twin skyscrapers were blown up, and he solved the problem at its root without even lifting a finger.

Oki Iwatsu's expression wasn't much better at the moment. He stood up abruptly and said, "I can't stay in this place any longer."

"Megure, immediately arrange for someone to escort me out first!"

The building was bombed, the Tokiwa Group was targeted, so how could he, the person who approved the project, possibly escape unscathed?

He has a feeling that someone wants to kill him, and he's panicking terribly.

Inspector Megure had only one word in his mind: Annoying!

However, he quickly organized an evacuation and refuge. Fortunately, the banquet had not yet started and there were hardly any people in the building, otherwise his heart rate would not be below 180.

The people in the meeting room were quickly moved around.

Ran Mouri ran back to Conan's side and tugged at him, "Conan, what are you still spacing out for?"

Conan snapped out of his daze, quickly made a few perfunctory remarks, and then left with them.

Now he seems to understand a little.

He had been wondering what important thing was in the building that someone was coveting.

After Hara Yoshiaki's death, he wondered if the two key figures, Oki Iwamatsu and Tokiwa Mio, were going to be assassinated.

In retrospect, the twin towers themselves were the key "thing," and the only person to be assassinated was the already deceased Hara Yoshiaki.

Behind these events, the organization must play a crucial role.

The organization first planted a bomb the night before last, which led to a conflict with the other party, whose identity was still unclear. Then today, they assassinated Hara Yoshiaki and destroyed the power distribution room and the main computer room.

The organization's motives are easy to guess; it's highly likely that Hara Yoshiaki betrayed the organization and used his skills to steal organizational data, which was then stored on the Tokiwa Foundation's computers and discovered.

Internal organizational documents... I missed them again!

Conan realized that he was really out of time this time.

Who is the other party?

And what is their purpose?

I can't figure it out, I can't figure it out at all.

Conan followed the group to the VIP sightseeing elevator.

This elevator not only has its own power supply, but it is also installed outside the building, located directly behind the location of the explosion.

"The elderly, women, and children go first. I'll leave Chairman Tokiwa to Ran, please help take care of them," Inspector Megure made the arrangements.

Oki Iwatsu, however, stepped forward and rushed into the elevator first, saying, "Nonsense, of course someone as important to society as me should escape first."

Inspector Megure was speechless, but the situation was urgent and he didn't want to waste any more time. "Fine, anyway, there aren't many women and children."

Even though there weren't many, the elevator was just big enough to squeeze the women, including the staff, inside.

far away.

Gin clearly observed the situation inside the sightseeing elevator through his sniper scope.

“All the able-bodied men have come in. It seems that either Shirley really didn’t come, or she’s hiding in the building and not with the rest of the group.”

"Afraid to take the elevator?"

"Then none of you should sit down."

"Just wait to die in the building."

Gin aimed at Oki Iwatsu and pulled the trigger.

But Conan displayed his extraordinary abilities.

"careful!"

Conan lunged forward and pushed Iwamatsu Oki away, and the bullet pierced the elevator glass the next second.

Amid gasps of surprise, everyone quickly exited the elevator.

Conan wondered again: The assassins haven't all been killed yet, so why are Oki Iwamatsu and Tokiwa Mio still assassination targets?

Chapter 83 Gin's Battle with the Air

Someone is shooting at us from a distance, so taking the elevator is definitely not an option; it's too risky.

Inspector Megure couldn't understand why he always encountered these kinds of things.

I've worked so hard on so many major cases and still haven't been promoted. Can't the promotion rules in the Japanese police system be changed?!

"It seems we'll have to walk downstairs. My men checked, and the two floors that were bombed didn't affect the emergency exits!"

Still shaken, Oki Iwatsu quickly went through the list of people who might want to kill him in his mind.

He made up his mind: after leaving this place, he would find the person behind this and take revenge!

Once again, Oki Iwatsu, who had become a frontline fighter in the escape, took the lead and rushed towards the emergency exit.

Meanwhile, Inspector Megure continued to contact Shiratori Ninzaburo by phone to request backup.

There are over seventy flights of stairs... Even going down takes quite a while.

However, an unexpected incident occurred on Gin's side.

"They got into a red Juliet?!" Chianti, who was using his left shoulder to brace his rifle butt due to a right shoulder injury, couldn't sit still any longer.

"Gin, that woman is the bitch who ambushed me and Cohen on the street!"

"No, I have to go and kill her!"

Chianti ignored Gin's orders, put away her gun, and walked away, ignoring Gin's cold calls from behind.

“Gin, I want to come with you so we can look out for each other.” Cohen said, but his body and sniper rifle remained unmoved.

Gin was very unhappy with Chianti's behavior, but now he was helpless.

However, since Shuichi Akai escaped from Building B, Sherry might also be in Building B.

Shuichi Akai and that woman whose background is unknown were probably decoys, used to test his reaction.

Without saying a word, Gin detonated the bomb that had been placed on the connecting bridge.

If you're in Building B, then cut off your access to Building A. The people downstairs in Building B are all from the organization.

If you are in Building A, then we will block your way back to Building B. Floors 1-3 of Building A are full of bombs.

No matter which way Sherry goes from here on, she is doomed to die!

Choosing not to wait for rescue... well, then you'll die in the collapsed staircase.

The flash of the bomb was dazzling in the darkness.

Gin finally managed to spare a thought and said to Cohen:

"Go and see what's going on. You might run into Shuichi Akai, so be careful."

"Keep him occupied for now, and I'll come back to support you once I've finished dealing with things here."

He then took the opportunity to replace his M24 with a legendary M4A1 obtained from within the US military.

This gun can be equipped with sights, its effective range is more than sufficient at this distance, and it can fire in bursts, allowing for more room for error.

Rather than killing her with a single shot, Gin now prefers to watch Sherry drag her crippled body desperately to escape, like a hunt, until she finally dies in endless despair.

Ah—Sherry!

Let's see how long you can escape in this twin-tower maze!

Building A.

Conan, the master of ideas, was dumbfounded.

He figured Building B hadn't been bombed, and the elevators there were still working, so he might as well just walk across the connecting bridge to the 66th floor.

Takagi Wataru and the remaining police officers led a group of people to continue through the emergency exit.

Inspector Megure then led the remaining people to find a new route.

As soon as they arrived, the connecting bridge was blown up.

"The bridge wasn't blown up. The gap is about two or three meters from Building B. An adult might be able to jump across if they think of a way."

This is the statement of the bumbling detective.

Everyone was speechless.

Two or three meters... do you know what that means?

Even if you include your hands, it's still something that people like us who don't exercise can't do.

Especially Inspector Megure; he glanced at his stomach and knew he couldn't jump over it, even if someone on the other side helped catch him, it would be suicide.

“Let’s prepare two plans,” Conan, the idea king, proposed another new idea. “The elderly, children, and women will be escorted by Inspector Megure and police officers through the emergency exit. It will be slower, but it will be safer.”

"Uncle Maoli, let's go check the connecting bridge on the 45th floor again. We're faster, so let's stay in touch. If the connecting bridge below is passable, we'll escape from there."

boom--! ! !

Almost as soon as the words were spoken, a light blue glow quickly spread from the bottom of Building B to the top.

The shockwave from the explosion was incredibly powerful.

Although the explosion points were located on the lower 30 or 40 floors, the glass where Conan and the others were standing was still shattered.

Screams erupted one after another.

Fortunately, the glass shards did not hit the crowd. After a brief moment of adjustment, Conan rushed to the edge and looked down.
