The Phantom Thief of Heart! But Conan

After the dazzling firelight faded, Tang Ze watched the back of the black-clad figure in the venue attack the puppet that pounced on the rope, and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

The owner of this hall is a bomb maker, and he also likes to do some anti-social operations. Tang Ze had expected that his hall would anger Matsuda Jinpei, who had come to investigate.

However, when the elements related to Hagiwara Kenji's sacrifice appeared, Matsuda Jinpei's anger accumulated faster and faster. An exaggerated and contrived puppet drama that tried to restore Hagiwara Kenji's death scene directly detonated him.

Touching his chin, Tang Ze nodded with satisfaction: "Not bad, I knew that Mr. Furuya's peers were almost the same quality as him, there is something."

"It's really efficient, the new guy this time." Noah's voice sounded in Tang Ze's ears.

With a mobile phone and navigation as a medium, Noah can appear next to any member of the group at any time. Tang Ze just glanced at the little robot that was sticking its head out of its scarf and answered casually: "I'm not talking about this. I'm talking about the style that finally matches my taste."

"Ah?" Noah blinked, not understanding where Tang Ze's turn came from.

Tang Ze looked at Matsuda Jinpei who was constantly firing and using a mask in front of him, and raised his chin to him: "Don't you think this effect is more symmetrical with Kid's style?"

Matsuda Jinpei's main color has always been black, so of course his thief outfit is only black, white and gray, and only the tip of the flying hem retains some red piping.

However, compared to the other people in the group, he is wearing a white shirt and black vest, with a windbreaker with a fluttering hem and a hood that covers most of his face. If he stood opposite the thief Kid, perhaps the atmosphere of the thief would be stronger.

If I have to find fault, it's probably that wearing sunglasses in the dark might be a little weird.

You know, everyone in the Phantom Thieves so far has a good-looking image, but in terms of style, they are all playing their own way.

At present, the style of the group has been a mixture of Taiga drama, song and dance troupe, Onmyoji, Rainbow Six, Overwatch, etc., which can't be stitched anymore. When fighting, everyone's style is not quite right. This time, finally a decent Phantom Thief image came out, which really touched Tang Ze.

"Do we need to notify Kidd?" Noah, who didn't understand Tang Ze's brain circuit, blinked and asked along with Tang Ze's words.

"No need for now, just give him a small surprise for the Phantom Thieves."

"Uh, are you sure it's a surprise..."

The two people behind him muttered without disturbing Matsuda Jinpei. After repelling a wave of enemies with his newly awakened power, he looked up and stared at the scenery above his head with his eyes filled with gold.

More specifically, he stared at the dazzling Ferris wheel outside the hole in the fabric.

"Do you also need to design a so-called 'trap' in a place like this? Boring trick." Matsuda Jinpei spit out the plastic stick in his mouth, raised his free hand, and gestured to one of the hanging ropes with a shooting gesture.

Behind him, the familiar that merged with the huge stone wall also raised his chained hand.

The next moment, the dazzling ray directly pierced through the rope he was aiming at, and the eyeball-like sphere hanging above it fell heavily. After a small burst of smoke, two red bills fell.

The burning atmosphere of the siege faded with his accurate hit, and a round of boos broke out from the empty audience seats around. Obviously, the owner of this place was very dissatisfied with Matsuda Jinpei's quick and direct solution to the puzzle.

But what he wanted was the other party's dissatisfaction.

The hanging things slowly retracted along the hole in the tent, and the spotlight also dissipated, and the broken pieces of cloth fell down belatedly.

The originally gorgeously decorated tent became dilapidated in an instant, as if it had been abandoned for a long time.

After confirming that there were no other threats around, Tang Ze walked a few steps closer to Matsuda Jinpei, "You are worthy of being a bomber. You even play the so-called 'line design' on the puzzle."

Matsuda Jinpei is worthy of being a professional bomb disposal technician. He accurately found the correct answer among many options.

Although Tang Ze, who had been observing for a while, did not say anything, he had roughly guessed the tendency of Matsuda Jinpei's ability in his heart.

He probably has some abilities similar to Tang Ze's "third eye", which can help him find the right solution faster and more effectively in analysis and puzzle solving.

This should perhaps also be classified as an intuitive detective ability...

"He is such a despicable guy, I am not very surprised." Matsuda Jinpei touched the sunglasses on his face that seemed to have changed a little, and said uncertainly, "So, could it be that my mask is this...?"

He had seen the image of the thief of Morifushi Kagemitsu, and the big futuristic goggles were indeed impressive.

Tang Ze came closer to observe for a while, and even touched it, and consciously let go of his hand before Matsuda Jinpei dodged.

"Well, this is indeed your mask. It is indeed a bit ordinary, but it seems to suit you."

Because of the closer relationship, Tang Ze, who did not have time to introduce the setting in a long speech, initially handed Matsuda Jinpei to Morifushi Kagemitsu and asked him to take people to the other world to experience it directly.

Perhaps the unexpected setting of the other party using glasses as a mask gave Matsuda Jinpei a hint to a certain extent, making him subconsciously regard his sunglasses as a form of mask.

That's fine, it's good, our group's masks are now varied and powerful.

However, looking at his mask, Tang Ze's mind suddenly played some strange gifs automatically, such as taking off the sunglasses and still wearing sunglasses.

Now that his sunglasses can grow on his face, if he also wears a pair of sunglasses in his daily clothes, will there be such a strange picture of preparing to transform, taking off the sunglasses, and still wearing sunglasses...

"...I feel like you are thinking about something very strange and impolite." Matsuda Jinpei, who couldn't see Tang Ze's eyes at all, still keenly noticed his emotions, stepped back half a step, and avoided Tang Ze's possible follow-up actions who came over to observe.

"Ahem, no." Tang Ze suppressed his urge to see strange things, cleared his throat, and stood up again, "I just think it's unreasonable for the two of us to stand here as thieves."

Tang Ze's mask is a blindfold that completely covers his eyes, and Matsuda Jinpei's mask is a big pair of sunglasses. The two of them stand in the dark amusement park tent, and there is indeed a kind of beauty of a blind group.

After a moment of imagination, Matsuda Jinpei shook his head, turned around, and walked towards the exit.

"Okay, stop thinking about weird things. Speed ​​up a bit, I really want to completely destroy the weird thing in the middle."

"It's probably difficult for the two of us, we have to go out and borrow the high-tech retractable straps."

"Huh? What are you mumbling about?"

"Nothing. I mean, it's time to hurry up, and I don't want to spend a whole night in this damn place."

————

"What, fake?"

"Yes, it is true that suspected iron boxes and contents were found under the seats of the Touto Line, but it seems to be just some colored paper and fireworks..."

"It seems that this person has long expected that the search team can find them." Hearing the movement on the other end of the phone, Conan was not very surprised, "The cost of making high-energy bombs is not low."

Although explosives are not difficult to obtain, and the difficulty of making a homemade explosive is far lower than many people imagine, it takes some effort to make plastic explosives like the one used by this criminal.

...So the main advantage of Moriya Teiji being a bomber is that he is relatively rich.

After a brief moment of wandering off, Conan returned to the topic just now: "This is a very cunning guy, and he really enjoys playing tricks on all the police."

"This is also the difficult part of this case." Huiyuan Ai, who was sitting in the back row next to Hoshikawa Teru, said softly, "His purpose is not for money. This is a reckless murderer."

Creating trouble, creating trouble that cannot be handled at all, and then blaming the police for not being able to solve the problem, thereby lowering the credibility and image of the police...

This is the other party's fundamental purpose. His wish is to destroy and destroy. This is a threat with no room for negotiation, or even a terrorist attack.

"Yes, for him, this is a revenge." Conan narrowed his eyes and leaned back on the chair, "A revenge with 12 million people as hostages."

The location pointed to by this code is the entire Touto Line. He guessed that since the disguised bomb could be discovered so quickly, the other party must have arranged more than one sleight of hand.

Among them, will there be a real guy?

Considering the cost and cycle of bomb production, he guessed that there would be no substantial gains in this wave of bomb disposal around the railway.

However, the trains on the railway dare not gamble, and the police dare not gamble even more.

This will be a protracted battle, and he must be prepared to deal with Sato's car all night.

It must be uncomfortable for so many people to squeeze in one car, but they have no choice.

Among the policemen with good relationships, Takagi Wataru's car exploded in the morning, Shiratori Renzaburo's car exploded at noon, and Megure Jusan was in the Metropolitan Police Department with Matsumoto Kiyonaga, who was responsible for the operation arrangement, to coordinate the operation, and there was no car for them to use.

Now they can only hope that Sato Miwako's strong old car will not be blown up at night.

"I always feel that this Touto Line is somewhat unlucky." Seeing Sato Miwako hang up the phone and temporarily end the communication with the front-line investigators, Tsuburaya Mitsuhiko finally found an opportunity to complain, "Last time, that architect, did he also come to blow up the Touto Line?"

"It seems to be true..." Yoshida Ayumi recalled for a moment and couldn't help but nodded slowly, "But that time, didn't the Phantom Thieves find out about the bomb in advance and replace the bomb with fireworks?"

"Is it possible that the criminals this time made so many ribbons and fireworks, and they were also inspired by them?" Kojima Genta followed their logic and couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

Hoshikawa Teru, who was squeezed and barely sitting inside by the naughty kids, moved a little bit, secretly complaining about their reputation being damaged.

Please, don't misunderstand the taste of the Phantom Thieves, okay?

Stuffing notices and fireworks into bombs is purely the personal taste of the leader, don't implicate innocent members!

Perhaps inspired by their conversation, Conan rolled his eyes and couldn't help but take out his phone and type a message to Joker.

A whole day has passed, and the Phantom Thieves are still quiet. Maybe there has been some new progress.

Let's find a reason to ask...

————

"Touto Line? Impossible."

Furugaya Rei shook his head without thinking, looking at the atlas in his hand.

"But this is the location that best fits the code. The Metropolitan Police Department has also conducted a simple investigation around baseball fields and other places, but has found nothing so far." Kazami Yuya explained.

As he spoke, he secretly glanced at the table in front of him.

The scattered files on the case covered the table, which was Tang Ze's "return gift" that day.

According to today's situation, it is obvious that this is the supplementary investigation result of the Phantom Thieves on this case.

If the Phantom Thieves can accurately find the criminal with the current information, then there is no reason why he can't do it.

This is the first idea that came to Furuya Rei, who is currently unable to participate in the front-line work, so after leaving the cafe, he immediately called Kazami Yuya, who had taken the information, to his apartment.

Furuya Rei picked up a photo in the file and pushed it to the center of the table.

"The criminal's purpose is not to exchange money or other materials. What he wants is attention, eyes, and the heat of breaking news. That's why he chose this place."

The photo shows the Ferris wheel in the Beihu Shopping Mall, which was chosen as the first bomb placement site three years ago.

This is a landmark that is eye-catching enough. Compared with large theme parks with larger areas, it is located in a business district with denser traffic and is more likely to attract onlookers. If Matsuda dismantles the bomb for self-protection, it will be easier to stir up public opinion next.

"The criminal's behavior logic is regular." Looking at the photo steadily, Furuya Ling's eyes flickered slightly, "First, the placement of the first bomb requires a closed space. He needs a switch that can accurately trap the person and the first bomb together, and then use the mercury rod to eliminate the possibility of external forces saving the person and the bomb. This is the first step in his design of the trap-an environment that forces the police responsible for explosive disposal to face a life-and-death crisis alone. The railway carriage is still too "wide" for him."

When he spoke the analysis fluently and naturally, his emotions were calmer than he thought.

Just as Kazami Yuya told Tang Ze before, he was just restricted by his status and couldn't get out of the way to personally hunt down the criminals who killed his friends, not because he was indifferent.

These well-known materials and various analyses, profiles and inferences surrounding the criminals have been lingering in his mind for a long time.

Rather than really needing others to recognize his reasoning, he was more like looking for an outlet to dump these accumulated things.

"Secondly, he will need a place that is eye-catching enough. A landmark, a place that will be seen by many people. He presupposes that the police will use the media to cover up the truth and instigate the people, so he needs a place where enough witnesses can see it, so that everything can be "undeniable." "

"Then another necessary element is about to come out, that is, height."
