Conan: Another Famous Detective

At seven o'clock in the evening, in a department store in Sumida District, Tokyo.

Although night has fallen at this time, for the department store, it is still far from closing time.

The bustling flow of people made the illuminated department store not seem deserted at all.

However, in the crowd, two figures quietly approached the almost deserted safety stairs.

The elevator is running normally. People going to high floors will naturally not choose the safety stairs. As for the lower floors, people occasionally use them. However, the lighting of the safety stairs on the second and third floors seemed to have some malfunctions the day before yesterday. The entire stairwell arrived. It became extremely dark at night, looking out of place among the bright buildings.

Therefore, those guests who originally only went to the second and third floors would rather wait for the elevator than take the safety stairs.

Therefore, the two figures approaching the safety stairs seemed a bit different.

However, most people were just minding their own business and didn't notice their strange behavior at all. Even if someone noticed, they just took a second look and ignored them.

After all, the two figures were wearing regular clothes and caps, with empty hands. There was nothing strange about them except that they were close to the safety stairs.

Just like that, the two figures entered the safety stairs without attracting any attention.

In the darkness, the two figures had a clear purpose and headed straight for the small space under the stairs!

Without turning on the flashlight, the two accurately found a backpack covered in debris.

One of the figures carried a backpack, and the other figure took the lead in climbing the safety stairs.

Afterwards, the empty-handed figure explored the path ahead. After confirming that there was no one there, he signaled to the figure behind him who was carrying a backpack to follow.

Being cautious along the way, they successfully avoided two encounters with other people, and finally reached the rooftop without anyone noticing.

…………

Timothy Hunter, who was thin and sickly pale, glanced at the rooftop. After seeing nothing unusual, he turned around and signaled to his companions.

A few seconds later, Kevin Yoshino carrying a bag also entered the rooftop.

"Huh!" Hunter let out a long breath and leaned against the wall with a tired look on his face.

This building has more than thirty floors. Even if he stopped and walked, he would be very tired along the way.

If he was still the sniper of the Navy SEALs back then, this amount of exercise wouldn't even be considered a warm-up.

It's a pity that he is no longer what he used to be.

Yoshino looked at Hunter with some worry: "Tim, are you okay? In fact, you don't have to come with me at all. I'm totally fine by myself!"

Hunter shook his head slightly: "I'm fine, just rest for a few minutes."

After a pause, his expression became slightly serious: "The reason why I want to follow you is because I always feel uneasy in my heart."

"Uneasy?" Yoshino was stunned.

"Yes." Hunter said in a low voice: "Although yesterday's sniper attack went smoothly, we encountered accidents one after another while escaping."

"Especially the guy you mentioned riding a motorcycle and carrying a child. He predicted your actions several times and was still able to keep approaching you despite your gunpoint, forcing you to expose your grenades as a deterrent. .”

"To do this, his pistol shooting level must be at least as good as yours. After that, the police pursuit vehicle looked clearly prepared for grenades. I'm afraid that guy was the one who tipped off the information."

"After that, the other party chased him all the way to the dock. Such tracking ability should not be underestimated."

After a pause, Hunter continued: "If that's all, that's it. Although there were some twists and turns, I finally managed to escape."

"But today our plan had another surprise. The police found the guy in Senshan so quickly. He even planned to move from home tonight, so we had to execute the plan in advance."

Hunter looked a little gloomy: "Unexpected situations happened one after another, and I really feel a little worried."

Seeing Hunter's ugly face, Yoshino frowned: "Do you think something unexpected will happen in this sniper attack on Mori Shiro?"

"I don't know." Hunter shook his head: "It's just that the hasty execution of the plan makes me somewhat uneasy."

Seeing this, Yoshino laughed, patted Hunter on the shoulder, and said comfortingly: "Don't worry! Tim! It's just a fantasy for a few policemen to save Mori Shirt from my gun!"

"We have already observed the surroundings just now, and there is no suspicious figure of plainclothes. I'm afraid they haven't discovered that Morishang's house has been monitored by us, right?"

"With you as my observer, I will be absolutely foolproof!"

Hunter's expression softened slightly when he heard this: "Indeed, but you still have to be careful. Check again later to make sure there are no snipers hiding in the surrounding commanding heights."

"Yes!" Yoshino nodded. Although he thought there would be no accidents, he still needed to be cautious.

The plan was decided, and Hunter was almost rested. The two stopped talking nonsense and came to the rooftop guardrail together. Yoshino opened his backpack, which contained enough gun parts to assemble a high-performance MK11 rifle!

Hunter took out a telescope from his backpack. He would serve as an observer and observe the surrounding anomalies while Yoshino focused on the target.

Of course, now he needs to use binoculars to confirm whether there are snipers from the surrounding commanding heights that may snipe here.

On the other side, Yoshino skillfully began to assemble a sniper rifle.

After a mechanical clicking sound, in less than half a minute, an MK11 rifle with a scope was assembled.

Later, Yoshino also joined in the observation.

moment.

"Tim! I didn't notice it here!" Yoshino said first.

Hunter nodded slightly: "I have found no abnormalities so far, and no suspicious figures have been found at all the commanding heights."

"Okay! Then Tim, please continue to observe the surroundings, I'm going to start hunting!" Yoshino said, and the muzzle of the gun that was originally wandering around gradually turned to An Yuanren's residence.

"Yeah!" Hunter nodded and continued to observe his surroundings.

He was not scanning aimlessly, but focused on the places where snipers could reach here.

There are not many places like this. The department store they chose is the tallest building within two kilometers. If you want to snipe from other places, you have to choose from the bottom up.

At such a sniping angle, the influence of wind and gravity factors becomes more and more obvious, making sniping more difficult and the requirements for snipers more stringent.

Hunter defined the scope based on his own standards. When he couldn't snipe here, at the same location, he believed that no one in the entire Japan could threaten Yoshino!

After some investigation, Hunter found no abnormalities, and then informed Yoshino of the situation.

Yoshino responded, staring more intently at An Yuanren's residence.

It's getting closer to eight o'clock.
