"Kazemi, go and investigate right now to see if the Metropolitan Police Department has any police records on Mihua Edo Street this morning."
"Huh? This..."
As soon as Toru Amuro finished asking, he heard Yuya Kazami froze for a moment on the other side of the phone.
"What's wrong? Is there any problem?" Toru Amuro asked with a frown. Yuya Kazami's reaction made him a little uneasy.
"Well, Mr. Furutani." Kazami Yuya said hesitantly: "There is actually no need to investigate this. I originally wanted to inform you about this matter before, but when I think of Mr. Furitani, you are now executing that black-clothed man. The mission of the organization was worried that your identity would be exposed, so..."
"Tell me the important point." Toru Amuro interrupted with a headache.
"Well, that's right, the police did have records of police dispatches to Mihua Edo Street this morning, and there were quite a few police officers dispatched..."
"What's the meaning?"
"The news I heard is that the Metropolitan Police Department received an alarm call from Kiyoko Igarashi, the host of today's celebration in Edo Street. It is said that something similar to the incident at Clover Villa happened in the guest house in Edo Street two days ago. A vicious terrorist attack occurred. Some guests were held hostage by terrorists, so the Metropolitan Police Department immediately dispatched police forces..."
[Vicious terrorist attack? 】
"Wait a minute, when did you say? When did Kiyoko Igarashi call the police?" Toru Amuro asked quickly.
"The time should have been almost half an hour ago. What's wrong? Mr. Fukitani?" Kazami Yuya asked doubtfully.
【How could this happen...】
Toru Amuro stood there, lowering his head and frowning in thought.
Half an hour ago, wasn't that the time when the guests returned to the guest house and found someone dead in the guest hall?
The person who went to the police at that time was Igarashi Kiyoko...
Terrorist attacks?
Why would she tell such lies to the police?
Did she really predict what would happen next in the guest house at that time?
But what was her reason for doing this?
"Have the police arrived at Edo Street now?" Toru Amuro asked.
"Yes, Mr. Furitani, because the caller Igarashi Kiyoko is a government employee, the Metropolitan Police Department takes this incident very seriously. A few minutes ago, the police completed the control of the main entrances and exits of Mihua Edo Street. .
The person in charge of commanding this operation is Commander Kuroda. He has already applied for support from the Metropolitan Police Department and is expected to conduct a raid on Edo Street soon..."
"Feng Jian, where are you now?"
"Well, as a representative of the public security, I am right outside Edo Street..."
On the roof of a high-rise apartment building outside Miwa Edo Street, Yuya Kazami held his mobile phone and raised his hand to scratch his head.
Directly in front of him was the Mihua Edo Street where Amuro Toru and others were currently located.
In order to give visitors the greatest sense of immersion, several meters high walls have been built around the block of Miwa Edo Street.
These walls surround Edo Street, just like a small city-state in ancient Japan. There are only a few entrances and exits set in advance that can be entered and exited normally.
And now, on the street inside the main entrance of Edo Street facing here, a group of tourists are rushing towards this direction.
"..."
"There are many injured people in the guest house. Feng Jian, please ask the police to organize rescue forces as soon as possible. Please..."
In the lobby of the guesthouse, Toru Amuro hung up the call with Yuya Kazami and stuffed the phone back into Kogoro Mori's pocket.
"What's going on?" Shui Wulian asked.
"There is indeed something wrong with that woman." Toru Amuro replied.
“She may have predicted the organization’s next actions in advance and used the power of the police to block off this Edo Street.
As for her purpose of doing this... Judging from the current situation, I think she wanted to use this to create a suitable opportunity to take away the little girl named Haibara Ai alone. "
This is the most reasonable explanation that Toru Amuro can think of so far.
"In other words, the little girl was indeed taken away by her, right?" Shuiwu Reina asked.
"As of now, that should be it." Toru Amuro nodded.
"Then don't waste your time."
As Mizuna Reina said, she once again pulled out the pistol hidden behind her back.
"Whatever the reason, she must have been still in the hall before the explosion, which means she must have taken the little girl away after the explosion.
She won't be gone for long, and she won't be able to go far with a comatose child. We can definitely chase her back now. "
"That's what I thought too."
Reaching a consensus, the two quickly left the guest house.
"..."
"What the hell! Where did he go?!"
At this time, on the other side of Edo Street, the men in suits were still chasing the male figure wearing a sunhat.
The location of these people is in the central area of Edo Street. On the bustling street that was originally densely populated, due to the explosion of the guest house and the continuous gunshots from all around, tourists were all heading towards Edo Street. After running through several entrances and exits, the streets in the central area became deserted.
They chased the visored figure designated by Lilac from outside the guest house for several streets to here. However, just after turning a corner, the visor suddenly disappeared.
"Be careful! He must still be around here!"
Several people leaned against each other and looked around cautiously.
"Bang!"
At this moment, gunfire suddenly rang out on the roof next to the street, and a man in a suit fell down at the sound.
The remaining people quickly raised their guns and looked up, only to see a sunhat half-kneeling behind the ridge on the roof of the brick structure in front of them, aiming their guns at them as well.
"shot!"
"Boom boom boom!"
Gunshots continued to sound, and the distance between the two sides was only a dozen meters. Although they were both pistols, there was no need to aim too much.
The visor not only shoots incredibly accurately, but is also incredibly flexible.
During the short but fierce battle, he fired while running quickly on the roof. With the help of the roof ridge and his flexible skills, he managed to avoid shooting from several men in suits on the street below, killing them one by one. A point kill, completing a one-to-many reversal.
"Bang!"
As the last man in a suit was headshot, the visor breathed a sigh of relief and jumped down from the edge of the roof.
These men in suits all have communication equipment and locators on their bodies. The gun battle that just occurred must not be hidden from their companions.
Soon, support from men in suits will arrive here.
But she can't withdraw now, because her mission is to act like a sunhat to attract and contain the mysterious organization in this Edo street.
This is the task Bai Heqing gave her.
After replacing the magazine of the pistol, Bai Hejing, who was wearing a "Qing Shui Jing" disguise mask, raised his hand and pressed the brim of his hat.
[For such an urgent task, there is no time to even change disguises...]
[I hope everything goes well with my father...]
"Bang!"
