Messy tools were scattered randomly on the ground, and the paint that had not yet dried was shining brightly under the warm sun——
The cross sign frame belonging to Mihua Central Hospital stands on the edge of the rooftop, and there is an unused scaffolding next to it.
A woman's figure is clearly visible under the cross mark hole.
"What did you find? Did you see Miss Matsumoto?!"
"Ah, I saw it, although I haven't seen the face yet. But judging from the holes in the cross mark frame, the person tied inside is indeed a woman."
Putting the pistol away, Uehara Katsuki glanced at the screws used to fix the sides of the hospital's giant cross mark. He put his hands on his hips to calm his rapid breathing and bared his teeth and said: "I looked around, but I didn't find any monitoring equipment related to it."
eavesdropping equipment.
"Furthermore, there are screw holes in the back area of the cross. If you want to remove it, you can still remove it. However, the prisoner has most likely tied a bomb to Sayuri Matsumoto. If I remove it rashly, it will easily cause the bomb to detonate."
"What did you say?! Don't act rashly Uehara! Do you hear me?! This is not what you should do!"
First aid center, balcony.
Miwako Sato, who was looking up at the rooftop of Building 1 in the distance, suddenly changed her face when she heard this. Before Megure Thirteen even opened her mouth, she lowered her head and yelled at the intercom: "You don't have any security protection now."
No, it can’t be dismantled! Can’t be dismantled, did you hear that?!”
"Ah, I know, I know, don't yell so loudly, it's almost deafening. I didn't say I wanted to tear it down."
After taking out his cell phone to take photos of the scene, Katsuki Uehara couldn't help but pick his cochlea with his left little finger. Perhaps because he found the person, his tone was relaxed: "I still cherish my life, I'm not that stupid.
"Professional matters such as bomb defusal must still be left to professionals. If I fail to defuse it half-heartedly, I will have to answer for myself."
The man sat down on the edge of the rooftop, turned his head and glanced condescendingly at the rare scenery at his feet. It was enough to make a person with a fear of heights feel dizzy or even go into shock. Even he felt that for a moment
Heart season.
If it fell down, there would definitely be no bones left.
"..."
Miwako Sato, who was relieved in her heart, raised her head again and looked at the tiny figure sitting on the edge of the rooftop in the distance.
"Anyway, the explosive ordnance disposal team has rushed over with professional equipment. Uehara-kun, please evacuate now."
In the conference room.
After Sato Miwako fell silent, Megure Shisan, as the commander-in-chief of the scene, spoke, and his first order was to have his subordinates retreat.
"I understand, but I have to rest for a while first. I was too tired from running just now." Katsuki Uehara, who was obviously still breathing heavily, licked his extremely dry lips and spat.
His boring mouth felt much better after two pieces of chewing gum flew into it. Katsuki Uehara put the lid of the small iron box back into the inner pocket of his suit and chewed the fragrant mint fragrance, and the thoughts in his mind gradually became clear.
"Police Department, please ask the hospital's senior management who are the workers responsible for the roof construction."
Recalling the warning sign he saw when he came up, Uehara Katsumi picked up the walkie-talkie and put it to his mouth and said: "If I guess correctly, one of the people should be one of the victims of the serial murder."
——?!
Megure Thirteen in the conference room suddenly widened his eyes: "Uehara-kun, what do you mean?!"
"Ah, that's right. If confirmed, we will be able to contact you before and after."
Katsuki Uehara turned his head after hearing the footsteps and saw a group of heavily armed explosive ordnance disposal squad colleagues. After raising his hand and gesturing towards the cross mark, he said firmly: "If we move fast enough, maybe we can still
Hurry up and destroy the murderer’s plan before he strikes next time.”
"I see."
After hearing this, Mumu Shisan took a deep breath and immediately started calling the relevant hospital executives.
At the door of the conference room, Mouri Kogoro, who was still asleep after receiving an anesthetic injection, was still sitting on the cold tiles. After a while, his fingers moved slightly and he opened his eyes in confusion.
Conan, who had one hand in his pocket, pushed up the glasses on the bridge of his nose, and a bit of disbelief flashed in his eyes: It seems that he will behave more carefully when this Uehara police officer is present in the future.
This man's observation ability is really beyond his knowledge of the Tokyo police. If he is targeted...
Fortunately, the bug with Kudo Shinichi's fingerprint has been switched.
Conan breathed a sigh of relief when he thought of this.
"Conan? Where did you go, little brat? Do you know that I have been looking for you for a long time?! I told you not to run around and you turned a deaf ear, right?!"
Conan, who had no time to dodge, was directly hit by the iron fist of Kogoro Mori after he woke up——
It hurts!
Squatting down with his head in his hands, Conan's series of movements after being beaten were smooth and flowing.
On the other side, Mu Mu Shisan was still giving orders one after another, and it was getting late outside the window.

"The latest news is that the Tokyo police have successfully defused all the bombs installed in Mihua Central Hospital at 16:43 today, ensuring the safety of the lives and property of all citizens.
"Among them, Miss Sayuri Matsumoto, the fiancée of Toshihiko Takasugi, the director of the Takayama Foundation, who was kidnapped as a bargaining chip by the criminals, has also been sent to the hospital for treatment on the spot and is now out of danger.
"As for this large-scale police rescue and bomb disposal operation, the police also provided explanations and assurances to the public through reporters gathered at the entrance of the hospital afterwards."
On the TV screen, as the host's words fell, the screen turned, and the entrance of Mihua Central Hospital under the setting sun seemed to be burned red by the skyline.
"This operation was indeed launched because the police detected the criminal's plan in advance. In the end, as you can see, it achieved very good results."
In the camera footage, Megure Thirteen, wearing an orange windbreaker, clenched a fist with one hand to his mouth and coughed several times: "Without any citizen being injured, we successfully dismantled a total of 9 bombs, including Ms. Sayuri Matsumoto's.
bomb."
"The Police Department, it is said that the person who helped the police solve the mystery related to the case this time was not the detective you often relied on before, but the police themselves. Is this true?"
"First of all, I need to emphasize that whether it is a detective or a police officer, I will adopt any suggestion that is beneficial to the case. This is my purpose in handling the case;
"Secondly, it is the criminal Katsumi Uehara next to me who solved the mystery of the case this time..."
Following Megure Thirteen's words, the camera that was still restrained suddenly focused on the man who was comparable to a model star sitting next to Megure Thirteen——
The light green suit is slightly elegant, and the ponytail tied behind the head is swaying gently with the smile rising at the corner of the mouth.
The Metropolitan Police Department searched the office area of the third department.
A group of people sat together, looking up at the handsome face on the TV and answering.
"Megure Police Department, Uehara Criminal Investigation Department, are the police confident in arresting this prisoner?"
"Of course, we will definitely arrest the criminal and bring him back to prison——"
Tokyo, somewhere.
Before the TV finished speaking, the screen suddenly went black.
"Uehara... Katsumi."
The figure in the darkness turned the metal card in his hand, his face gloomy.
