Traveling back thirty years to Conan, intercepting Princess Eri

Chapter 109: Damn, the Black Organization is so cruel!

A murder occurred in the town hall, so the film event could not go on.

The organizers of the event began to arrange for the American and Japanese stars in the hall to leave.

Lin Xiuyi also breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that Vermouth came to Japan this time just for her own acting work, not for the organization's mission...

Just as he thought this, a gunshot was heard from the rooftop of the hotel opposite the Mihua City Hall!
At the door of the city hall, a middle-aged man who had just walked out of the hall fell to the ground as gunshots rang out.

Lin Xiuyi remembered that this man seemed to be a famous director in Japan.

He immediately looked in the direction of the gunshot and could vaguely see two figures standing on the roof of the hotel opposite.

Someone was shot and fell to the ground, and there was chaos in front of the city hall.

The stars from the United States skillfully sought shelter, while the people from Japan either stood there in confusion or fled in fear.

The police officers were also in a panic. Inspector Samezaki did not direct the scene, but squatted down to check the middle-aged man's injuries.

Seeing the scene becoming increasingly chaotic, Lin Xiuyi quickly shouted, "Don't panic! The gunman is on the rooftop of the hotel across the street! All police officers will be divided into two teams. One team will stay at the entrance of the City Hall to maintain order and protect the citizens, while the other team will search the hotel across the street!"

His shouting alerted Inspector Samezaki: "Quick! Follow Lin Jun's orders!"

"Megure, Morimura, take your men to guard the entrance of the city hall to maintain order."

"Sato, Matsumoto, both of you follow me to the hotel across the street to capture the gunman!"

"You three stay here and don't go anywhere!" After Lin Xiuyi instructed his companions, he also ran towards the hotel opposite.

Although Kogoro Mori, Eri Kisaki, and Yukiko Fujimine were worried, they still followed Hayashi Shuichi's request and did not run around.

Kudo Yusaku looked at Lin Xiuyi's back, got excited, and chased after him.

Not far away, Sharon Wynyard stood in the shadows, lighting a lady's cigarette.

In the light of the cigarette butt, the blonde beauty puffed out smoke while looking at Lin Xiuyi's back with a faint gaze: "Young man, I wish you good luck."

Opposite the Mihua City Hall is a 16-story hotel.

When Hayashi Shuichi and Kudo Yusaku ran into the first floor of the hotel, Inspector Samezaki had already sent Officer Sato to guard the hotel elevator. He himself, along with Officer Matsumoto and a dozen other police officers, searched the stairs floor by floor.

"The gunman dared to shoot and injure people in front of so many police officers. He must have a backup plan," Kudo Yusaku analyzed. "If it were me, I would plant bombs in the hotel. As soon as they exploded, the guests would panic and run out immediately, and the police would have no time to investigate..."

As soon as he finished speaking, explosions were heard in the hotel one after another.

"You're such a jinx!" Lin Xiuyi looked at Kudo Yusaku speechlessly.

"I was analyzing the situation on the scene, not making a prediction. You're the one who's really saying the worst!" Kudo Yusaku said unhappily. "Before, at City Hall, you were worried someone might plant a bomb! Now look what happens, the bomb wasn't planted at City Hall, but ended up in this hotel!"

"Will the bomb collapse the building?" Lin Xiuyi asked worriedly.

"That shouldn't be the case," Kudo Yusaku thought for a moment, "The murderer planted the bomb to cause chaos and facilitate their escape. If the bomb was too powerful and collapsed the hotel, they wouldn't be able to escape."

"The gunman was on the roof before, so he shouldn't come down so quickly. Let's catch up with him and alert Inspector Samezaki," said Lin Xiuyi, and ran towards the stairs.

Kudo Yusaku followed without hesitation.

As soon as the two reached the third floor, just as Kudo Yusaku had predicted, the corridors on each floor were already crowded with guests who were trying to flee in a panic. Hayashi Shuichi and Kudo Yusaku, while observing the guests coming down the stairs and searching for the gunman, went upstream and finally caught up with Inspector Samezaki on the fifth floor.

As soon as Kudo Yusaku shared his analysis, Inspector Samezaki decisively ordered, "Matsumoto, go downstairs and find a phone to notify the Metropolitan Police Department for backup. Don't come back after this. Bring your men to gather all the guests who escaped from the hotel and check them one by one!"

"Yes!" Officer Matsumoto led his men away with orders.

Inspector Samezaki led the remaining five officers and continued to walk up. Seeing that Hayashi Shuichi and Kudo Yusaku were still following behind, he immediately spoke up to dissuade them: "It's too dangerous up there, the two of you shouldn't go up."

"You are too few to take care of everything," Lin Xiuyi assured, "We are only helping to find suspicious people and won't do anything rash."

"...Okay then, both of you follow behind us and don't run around!"

After giving some instructions, Inspector Samezaki continued to lead his men up.

Lin Xiuyi and the other two followed behind.

Kudo Yusaku muttered in dissatisfaction: "You seemed to have made the decision for me without even asking for my opinion."

Lin Xiuyi observed the guests running down the stairs and casually replied, "Such a lively event, how could you, the Kudo family, miss it?"

"We?" Kudo Yusaku frowned immediately, "Have you met my relatives?"

"Isn't Kudo a common surname?" Lin Xiuyi realized that he had let the cat out of the bag and quickly made amends. "Of course I've seen many people with the last name Kudo."

Kudo Yusaku didn't believe this answer.

But among his relatives, only his mother's surname is Kudo. Although his father and twin brothers also stayed in Japan, their surnames are both Kuroba.

Is this guy just talking nonsense, or... has he seen my mother?

When he was a child, his parents divorced, his father took his brother away, and Kudo Yusaku lived with his mother.

But when he grew up to be able to take care of himself, his mother began to disappear frequently and her whereabouts became erratic. Even Kudo Yusaku could not contact her.

With a lot of questions in his mind, Kudo Yusaku followed Lin Xiuyi upstairs, but until they reached the top floor, neither of them found any suspicious people among the guests going downstairs.

"The gunman may be staying in the room on the top floor, so be careful!" Inspector Samezaki called on his officers to search each room one by one.

After pushing open the door of room 1206, all the police officers, including Inspector Samezaki, became panicked.

"what happened?"

Lin Xiuyi went forward to check it out curiously, and was also stunned.

Damn, the Black Organization is so cruel!

Room 1206 is a suite. The room inside is in a shabby and messy state, and it must have just been bombed.

In the room outside it, there was a suitcase, and inside the suitcase was a huge time bomb. Judging from the size of the bomb, once it exploded, the upper floors of the hotel would definitely be destroyed.

"Hurry, retreat!" Inspector Samezaki shouted hurriedly.

"No, it's too late!" Lin Xiu glanced at the time on the time bomb, there were less than thirty seconds.

Such a short time is not enough for them to escape the explosion range of the bomb!
