Conan showed a friendly smile to the boy, "Do you remember what that uncle looks like?"
"He was a very tall uncle. He put his baseball cap down so low that I couldn't see his eyes clearly," the boy recalled vaguely. "But his skin was a little tanned and he was wearing sportswear. I missed him." He is a person who likes sports very much..."
Conan looked at Haihara Ai, "Do you know who he is?"
Hui Yuan Ai shook his head and said firmly, "I haven't had any interactions with this kind of people since I arrived in London, and I didn't have any interactions with them when I was in Japan."
When Conan asked, Chi Feichi had already heard from Feichi about the contents of the box. He took out a pack of medical bandages, opened the package, pulled out the gauze inside, and wrapped it around the outside of the gift box.
"Feichi?" Chi Janai looked at Chi Feichi's behavior in confusion.
"Wait a moment."
Chi Feichi lowered his head and fiddled with the bandage, leaving about ten centimeters in length. He took out a bottle from his pocket, unscrewed the cap, and lightly sprinkled the liquid inside on the bandage.
The pungent smell in the air made others look at the bottle in Chi Feichi's hand with even more confusion.
Is this...gasoline?
Chi Feichi screwed on the bottle cap and left the seat with the gift box in his right hand. He tried to keep the gift box as stable as possible. When he arrived at the window, he carefully observed the windows of the nearby building. He took out a lighter from his pocket with his left hand and lit it with the lighter. That piece of gauze.
This restaurant is located on the sixth floor of the hotel. There is a lot of wind outside the window, but there is a box to block it and gasoline to support the combustion. The flame of the lighter quickly ignited the gauze and quickly burned into the box.
The next second, the black gift box was thrown out of the window by Chi Feichi.
"boom--!"
The flaming box flew away from the window and exploded in the air, forming a red fireball of black smoke.
The aftermath of the explosion made the window glass buzz. In the restaurant, the guests who had not noticed it at first turned to look out the window and murmured in surprise.
"What?"
"what is that?"
"Is it a bomb?"
"No, it can't be? Why is there a bomb here?"
Conan stared at Chi Feichi who turned back from the window.
No, there is no doubt that it was an explosion of high explosives!
"There is a rattling sound in the box. It is very likely that it is a bomb. Even if the bomb does not detonate when the box is opened, the bomber will usually observe the explosion scene nearby after putting in the bomb," Chi Feichi walked back to the dining table. He sat down and explained calmly, "If we call the police or try to take the bomb to an open place to detonate, the other party may use the remote control to detonate the bomb directly, so I think it is better to just throw it out the window and detonate it."
Fei Chi told him that the gift box contained an explosive the size of a book, and there was something suspiciously jammed on top.
He thought that the other party should have disguised the bomb as a book, put a message card on it, put it in a gift box and asked the little boy to deliver it, while he would find a place where he could easily observe them, use a telescope or other methods Staring at them, the purpose is to make them open the box and see the contents on the card. No matter who is curious about the bomb disguised as a book, the moment they pick it up, the other party may detonate the bomb, causing some of them to be injured or even die……
This is a bad game, because it is a gift box for Haibara Ai. According to the 'gentlemanly manner' adhered to in the UK, when there is no certainty that the gift is dangerous, he, Shinnosuke Ike, Kogoro Mori, and Dr. Agasa will not He would touch the gifts given to Hui Yuan Ai by others first. Then, according to the murderer's expectation, only women or children would die, and the most likely person to die would be Hui Yuan Ai herself.
Without certainty when the other party will detonate the bomb and how long the bomb timer is left, calling the police or defuse the bomb may face the danger of the bomb being detonated immediately. However, they are located in the sixth-floor restaurant in the downtown area and take the bomb to the open space. It also takes a lot of time to detonate locally. Fortunately, the sky is a suitable open space. Detonating in the air is the best choice at the moment.
As for the piece of paper that was blown up together...
Do they still have to face the risk of someone being killed and multiple people being injured just for the contents of a piece of paper? Since the person who sent the bomb left a jam, it meant that he had information to tell them. Now they didn't know that information at all, so it was probably the other party who was so anxious.
…
Chi Feichi guessed correctly.
In the office building opposite the hotel building, a man wearing a hat and cleaner's clothes sneaked into the building, took the elevator to the sixth floor with a mop and bucket, and walked to the window. He took out a telescope and looked at the hotel opposite. He put his right hand in his coat and held the remote control tightly. As soon as a ferocious smile appeared on his lips, he saw Chi Feichi throwing a burning box from the window and watching the box explode in the air. , a smile condensed at the corner of his mouth.
this……
Burning the box over there directly detonated the bomb?
How did the other party discover the bomb?
No, no, even if you find that there may be a bomb in the box, shouldn't you hesitate?
If it was really a gift from the little girl's friend, wouldn't burning the gift box offend someone else's feelings?
He doesn't understand!
Wait, he handed the gift box to the little boy, took the hotel elevator from the sixth floor to the first floor, then changed into the hidden cleaning clothes on the first floor of the building, picked up the props, and took the elevator to the sixth floor, which took about seven or eight minutes. It would take six or seven minutes for the little boy to walk to the restaurant, find the girl with brown hair, give him a gift box and explain the situation. He calculated that by the time he stood at the window and looked over there, the little boy would have just said goodbye and left. , the other party should have just prepared to open the box or was in the process of opening the box. He had enough time to wait for those people to read the message on the card before detonating the bomb at the right time.
The box was thrown out so quickly, which means that the box was not opened at all. Judging from the box thrown out of the window, it was only on fire and was not opened at all. After the explosion, there was still burning black satin in the black smoke. bring……
That is to say, after the other party got the gift box, he set it on fire and detonated the bomb without even intending to open the box to take a look. The jammed paper he left inside was not seen at all!
So vigilant over there, so vigilant that it doesn’t look like a normal precaution, a bit neurotic…
He doesn't understand!
The most important thing is that the other party did not see the information he wanted to show the other party at all, so...should he send it again?
…
The restaurant on the sixth floor of the hotel.
"Yes, yes, it would be better to just throw it out of the window and detonate it..." Mouri Kogoro responded dryly, suddenly recovered from the surprise caused by the explosion, frowned and asked, "But who sent the bomb here? What about?"
Conan jumped off the chair, quickly ran to the window, grabbed the window frame and jumped up, lying on the window, using his glasses to look around at the buildings that could be seen here.
Chi Feichi was right. Generally, murderers who choose to use bombs will pay attention to the explosion of the bomb and whether they have achieved their goals. The other party will definitely be watching somewhere nearby where they can see them...
Chi Feichi also followed, looking sideways at Conan searching for the target with a solemn expression, and looking out the window from the corner of his eyes.
Guessing that the other party might be spying on them through the window, he unconsciously remained vigilant when he came to the window.
Afraid of being shot in the head by the opponent's sniper rifle...
When he came to the window to throw bombs, he had seen that there were no suspicious light spots nearby, especially several places suitable for sniping at them.
After throwing the bomb, he returned to the table while there was still black smoke outside the window. Unexpectedly, after the black smoke dissipated, Conan ran to the window without thinking...
Conan is so courageous and reckless, but he also believes that the Demon of Light will not die so easily, and if this is an assassination trap, unless he is someone who knows him very well, he will not be able to get rid of the box so quickly. Throw it out of the window and detonate it, so the possibility of an ambush by a sniper on the other side is actually not high.
"Yes!" Conan shouted, staring directly at the building opposite through his glasses.
On the sixth floor of the building opposite, a dazzling light lit up behind a window facing the hotel. It flashed and then disappeared quickly. Conan, who was vigilantly searching, caught it.
But when Conan adjusted his glasses and looked over, he only saw a figure dressed as a cleaning lady who was leaving with his back to the window.
Mao Lilan stood up when Conan ran towards the window and looked at Conan who didn't know what he was doing in surprise, "Ke, Conan?"
"On the sixth floor of the building opposite, someone was looking at us with a telescope just now, but he was already ready to leave!" Conan said, letting go and falling to the ground, turned around and ran out of the restaurant, "It's a man, dressed like a cleaning staff , but it might be a disguise!”
Mouri Kogoro reacted and left his seat to chase after him, "Let's stop him, Xiaolan, you call the police!"
"Yes!" Mao Lilan quickly took out her mobile phone, lowered her head and pressed the alarm number.
Chi Feichi stood in front of the window, still staring at the windows of the building opposite. He quickly took out a pair of cloth gloves and put them on, then took out a rope hook, stuck the hook on the edge of the window, and followed the rope to rush out of the building. drop.
He was also curious about who wanted to kill his people under his nose.
Conan saw that the other party was on the sixth floor, but he did not mention his facial features, only his clothing, which meant that Conan did not see the other party's face clearly. The other party should have put away the binoculars at that time and turned around to leave.
The elevator of that building is on the left side of the building, and the window where they can be seen from the sixth floor is also on the left side of the building. If the other party walks faster, it only takes half a minute to run into the elevator. If the other party leaves the elevator, how can he stop the elevator? On the sixth floor, it only takes about three minutes at the fastest for the other party to leave the office building opposite.
As for the hotel they were in, there were too many people going up and down. Conan and Mouri Kogoro took the elevator downstairs from the hotel. They didn't know which floor the elevator stopped at, and they didn't know how long the wait would be. It also took a lot of time to run up the stairs, so it was difficult to get stuck. Live with the bombers who were prepared in advance.
Just use the slide rope to slide to the first floor to catch up!
In the restaurant, Koshimizu Nanatsuki, Ikekana, and Suzuki Sonoko came to the window and looked nervously at Ike Feichi who was sliding down the rope.
Chi Fei arrived downstairs late, loosened the rope in his hand, passed through a group of passers-by who stopped in surprise at the explosion in the air, ran into the building opposite, and looked at the dancing numbers above the elevator.
【3......】
Two female employees wearing women's suits were waiting in front of the elevator. They turned to look at the unfamiliar Chi Feichi curiously.
