Conan: Top succubus, crazy CP

Chapter 997 Takagi Wataru's Premonition

The three little ones also noticed the "harmonious" atmosphere among the trio over there.

Genta took a bite of his bun and said vaguely, "Hey, look...Brother Hanyu and Officer Sato seem very close. Is he pursuing Officer Sato?"

Mitsuhiko pushed his glasses up and assumed a deductive reasoning stance. "Based on my observation, Hanyu-nii and Officer Sato are not much different in age, and Hanyu-nii often helps the police. They have common topics, so it's very likely that they'll develop feelings for each other. But... aren't Hanyu-nii's girlfriends Ran-ni and Sonoko-ni the others?"

When Ayumi heard this, her lips immediately pouted, and she poked the eggs in the bowl with the spoon in her hand, muttering jealously:

"Hanyu-nii belongs to everyone... Ayumi! He can't be so close to Officer Satou alone..."

Although Officer Sato is also very beautiful and handsome, but...

But...that's my future husband.

The little girl felt a little aggrieved.

Genta and Mitsuhiko didn't notice Ayumi's little mood and continued their discussion.

"But to be honest, Brother Hanyu and Officer Sato look really good together!" Genta said honestly.

"Yeah, they're both very good-looking and very capable," Mitsuhiko agreed. "Hanyu-nii is smart and a good fighter, and Officer Sato is the Metropolitan Police Department's ace. It's a formidable combination!"

The two little boys' careless words were like little knives, piercing Takagi Shigeru's fragile heart.

Every strike is a critical hit.

Takagi Wataru: "..."

Stop it, stop it, please stop it...

The child is innocent, but my heart is broken...

I'm the same colleague as Officer Sato, we work together day and night, and we share the same ideals. Why do I feel so bleak now that I'm redundant, a background figure, an outsider...

He lowered his head silently, chewing the dry bread in his hand, feeling that life was bleak.

At this moment, Conan, who was also very sleepy and yawning next to him, suddenly caught the strong and familiar smell of "single dog's sorrow" and "the sadness of not getting what you want" emanating from Takagi Wataru.

Conan pushed his glasses up, and the lenses reflected a strange light.

He looked at Hanyu Kusunoki, who was radiant and chatting happily with the beautiful police officer, like a model of a winner in life, and then looked at Officer Takagi next to him, who was emitting a strong aura of "dejection" and was almost growing mushrooms in the corner.

A wonderful sense of resonance, called "we are all wanderers in the same world", quietly arose in the heart of the famous detective and grew rapidly.

Although the specific circumstances are different, his body was shrunk and forced to separate, and Gao Mu's was simply a bumpy road in love, but the sour feeling of seeing someone else standing next to the person you love and being powerless to do anything...

He understands so well!

He shouldn't understand too much! These are lessons learned through blood and tears!

Conan silently moved his small stool closer to Takagi Shigeru, stretched out his little hand, and patted Takagi Shigeru's arm comfortingly with the understanding and sympathy of a "senior", then gave him a look that contained thousands of words and said, "Brother, I understand you."

When Takagi Wataru received Conan's gaze, he was stunned at first, then he seemed to have found his organization, and was so moved that he almost burst into tears.

So... I'm not the only one suffering this pain?

Sure enough, friendship between men can sometimes be established with just a glance.

But the problem is...

How can you establish friendship with a little kid?

As expected of you, Takagi!

……

The atmosphere of breakfast over there was a little heavy because of the silent communication between the two members of the "League of Losers".

The discussion among the three people here seems to have made a breakthrough.

Miwako Sato looked at the key words circled by Ai in the preview letter, her brows furrowed. "'Stepping on a blood-stained base'... If it's not a train, then what could it be? What else is 'red', 'bar-shaped', and related to 'movement' and 'starting point'?"

Xiao Ai did not answer immediately, but looked out the window of the breakfast shop. The early morning sun shone on the street and the traffic began to increase gradually.

Her fingertips unconsciously slid lightly across the glass.

Red... bar... starting point of movement... blood-stained bases...

Am I overcomplicating the problem?

The bomber likes to mock the police in a simple, straightforward, yet humorous way. Perhaps the answer lies in the most obvious and easily overlooked "origin"?

A red, rising iron "box"...

Just as she was lost in thought, Hanyu Kusunoki seemed to tap the glass lightly with her fingers unintentionally, and her eyes looked towards the towering iconic building in the distance - Touto Tower.

"Come to think of it, the sightseeing elevator in the Dongdu Tower is also red in appearance." He said it casually, as if he was just mentioning it casually.

This sentence was like a flash of lightning, instantly splitting the fog in Xiaoai's mind!

Dongdu Tower!

Red sightseeing elevator!

Isn't that a ready-made, huge, vertically movable "red iron box"?!

And that was exactly where the first explosion occurred seven years ago! It was the "origin" and "starting point" of all this!

"It's the elevator in the Toudou Tower!"

Ai suddenly raised her head. Although her voice was still cold, it was filled with certainty. "'The blood-stained bases' refers to the place where the explosion occurred seven years ago, which is also the starting point! And 'the steel home plate' may not refer to the tram, but to the red elevator car that can move up and down!"

Miwako Sato's pupils suddenly shrank and she reacted instantly!

That’s right! How could I forget this!

It is very likely that the bastard played a trick of "the most dangerous place is the safest place", or in other words, he just wanted to go back to "where the dream began" and set a real bomb there as a bloody and ironic opening to this "overtime".

"Sit tight!"

Without any hesitation, Sato Miwako took the two of them into the car and suddenly started the engine. The red Mazda roared, the tires rubbed against the ground, and it instantly shot out like an arrow.

"Officer Sato, wait for us!" Seeing this, Takagi Shigeru hurriedly tried to catch up, but he only got a mouthful of exhaust fumes.

"Takagi, you stay here, take good care of the children, and keep communication open." Sato Miwako said this into the walkie-talkie without looking back, and the car had already merged into the early morning traffic.

Takagi Shigeru could only watch the red taillights of the car quickly disappear into the distance. He scratched his head and looked at the group of sleepy children around him, feeling an inexplicable sense of loss in his heart.

For some reason, he had a strong premonition...

It seems that if I miss this opportunity, I will completely miss out on something important.
