Kawakami didn't tell Scotland the inside story of the mission, but Scotland knew that there should be no need to use a knife or a gun. He couldn't help but guess what this so-called "interlude" was——
There is a high probability that the mission is just a cover-up, and this is what Tsumugi Kawakami really wants, but if it is a private matter, why would this guy take him with him? Or is it related to him...
At the next traffic light, the two quickly changed seats.
The gray-haired young man didn't drive very fast, but his journey seemed to have been carefully planned: turning left, turning right, running through a few traffic lights, suddenly rushing onto the sidewalk and driving for a while...
"...Kashasha, you might be caught up by the traffic police like this."
Kawakami looked at the front attentively: "Ah, I know it's your car. Don't worry, you can ask me to reimburse the fine."
Of course, Scotland was not worried about fines, but it was obvious that Kawakami didn't intend to say anything more, so he didn't continue to ask. Kawakami Ji shook the plate violently and inserted another intestine path.
Scotland noticed that they were getting closer to the Ferris wheel. Following the gap in the street, he could see police cars passing through the playground and hurried crowds: the police were evacuating them.
Something did happen here.
A sudden thought occurred in his heart, and a bad premonition came over him. For the police to react like this, they must have encountered——
"Okay, get off the car." Kawakami said suddenly.
The gray-haired young man suddenly stopped, and Scotland, who was unprepared, was severely strangled by the seat belt. He opened the car door. By this time, Tsumugi Kawakami had already gotten out of the car and jumped...on top of the car.
Without standing up, the gray-haired young man arched his back like a cat and looked in the direction of the amusement park.
They have now gone around to the back of the playground. There is no one here. There is about two meters of cement wall covered with tiles, which is stained by a row of trash cans. There is also a railing wrapped with barbed wire on the top.
"Don't even do it... surveillance is bad."
Kawakami jumped off the roof of the car. He noticed that one of the entangled barbed wire fences was severely deformed... Well, the rust on the nearby railings had been wiped away. It seemed that climbers had visited this place recently.
"What happened?" Scotland couldn't help but ask.
"If nothing else happens, it should be an explosion...it hasn't happened yet. The people present are all old acquaintances. They probably don't have time to notify the professional explosive ordnance disposal team."
The gray-haired young man answered lazily, but deliberately emphasized the word "old acquaintance."
Scotland's muscles tensed.
The gray-haired young man did not observe his partner's face. Instead, he backed away a certain distance, started running hard, jumped on the trash can, and grabbed the top of the iron railing with his hands.
"Follow me~Scotland." Tsumugi Kawakami only said one sentence and flipped over dexterously.
He wrapped his black windbreaker tightly and rushed towards the Ferris wheel. From a long distance away, Kawakami saw the black smoke rising. The Ferris wheel is still turning slowly, but the speed has become quite slow. It seems that its driving device has been affected.
Before the police could pull off the cordon, the evacuated crowd stood and watched from a distance.
"There is only a streak of black smoke? The Ferris wheel has two control devices, why was only one destroyed?" Kawakami frowned, "Well, I want to confirm-"
"——Confirm that someone has gone up, and then destroy the other one, so that the Ferris wheel can be stopped and the other party is completely isolated and helpless." Scotland, who followed, gasped and said, "The bomb was pressed against the Ferris wheel. Are you in the carriage, Kawakami Tsumugi?"
Being robbed of the talk by others, Kawakami Tsumugi clicked his tongue in displeasure, and then he smiled again.
"I'm not sure yet...but it's pretty close to ten."
At this point, the gray-haired young man suddenly stopped. His voice was light, but with a very dull and sticky malice.
"Scotland, can you guess who will be going up?"
Scotland still looked at him calmly: "A certain policeman... To be honest, I'm not familiar with the people in the Search Division, but you, Kawakami Tsumugi, have more interactions with them."
Hearing this answer, Kawakami shrugged indifferently: "The organization has tacitly agreed to this. It doesn't matter if you are not familiar with them. I can introduce them to you."
"For example, the first section of the police department is Megure Thirteen, an old policeman with a kind personality but who relies too much on detectives; another example is the capable and sassy policewoman Sato Miwako; and Shiratori, whose full name should be Shiratori Rensaburo? This I’m not familiar with it…”
"Ah, by the way, I almost forgot. There is also a new guy transferred from the explosive ordnance disposal team. He is half an old man in terms of seniority. He is a particularly annoying curly guy. His name is Matsuda Jinpei——"
"Okay, stop talking." Scotland interrupted Kawakami, "Then are you here to watch the fun, Kashasha?"
"——I remember that when I was recuperating, you seemed to have had a private chat with the policeman." Kawakami continued to say unhurriedly, "I thought you had a good relationship."
"This is not a great perspective if you are watching the excitement. Maybe we can go around to the front of the Ferris wheel and stand with other onlookers."
Scotland's voice is hoarse,
"It's clearer there."
As if he was talking to himself on a different channel, Kawakami glanced at Scotland's impeccable fake smile with disgust: "It seems that you like this excitement very much, and it's not in vain for me to spend my energy to find a diversion during working hours."
They walked on.
"No, I don't," Scotland said.
"Ah, according to previous inferences, the person who installed the bomb was probably waiting for someone to enter the car where the bomb was installed before blowing up another control device to stop the Ferris wheel in the air."
The gray-haired young man continued his reasoning. He could already distinguish Officer Megure and his team from the crowd because they were standing directly under the Ferris wheel.
There was no sign of the curly hair, so it seemed that Matsuda Jinpei had already gone up.
"If it's just simple timing, it shouldn't be able to achieve such an effect. The bomber is probably standing somewhere not far away, controlling the sequence of events and looking at his masterpiece..."
"In other words, there is a high probability that he is among the crowd watching."
Kawakamiji felt Scotland's breathing quicken, but his expression remained unchanged.
"So Scotland, you can take a good look at this excitement."
…………
"Well, sir, you can't—"
The police officer maintaining order on the side was about to stretch out his hand to stop Kawakami Tsumugi who appeared out of nowhere, but the latter nimbly dodged it.
He showed an apologetic smile, dug into his pocket, took out something - a small notebook, and then waved it in front of the police officer:
"There is an explosion here, right? I am the detective contacted by Officer Megure. This is my detective certificate. Time waits for no one, and the bomb may explode soon."
The gray-haired young man moved so quickly that the police officer didn't even see what he had taken, but his subconscious hesitation allowed Kawakami to sneak in without any hindrance.
Officer Megure and the others had noticed the commotion here a long time ago, and saw that it was Kawakami Tsumugi who had an expression of "trouble is coming", but there was still a bit of unnoticeable expectation in the expression.
"Brother Kawakami, why are you-"
"Well, we can talk about the pleasantries later." Kawakamiji's tone was rarely serious, "It seems that the criminal has blown up one of the Ferris wheel's control devices - have you checked the other one?"
