The knife was aimed at Kazuma Kudo's throat.

Although he was a little slow to react, he still managed to avoid a fatal blow.

The sharp blade pierced the shoulder blade, bringing a cold, stinging sensation.

Kudo Kazuma's eyes darkened. He grabbed the other man's throat, pulled out the dagger from his shoulder blade, and mercilessly slit his throat before stabbing him in the heart. He absorbed the man's soul the moment he breathed his last and threw the corpse into the system space.

The entire process was incredibly smooth and completed in an instant.

Now the feeling of danger is completely gone.

With the Black Organization member codenamed Danpo's revenge temporarily complete, it's now time for Edogawa Kazuma to catch the bomber...

The explosions, which occurred every ten seconds, continued, but only 17 explosions were heard in total.

The bomb at Gate 18 was defused by the bomb disposal team that arrived in time.

The bomb at Gate 17 was kicked into the air by Conan with a powerful kick. Although the shockwave caused him to fall and get a bruise on his face, Gate 17 was otherwise safe, except for a few pieces of broken glass.

The arrival of the police and the security of the two exits finally calmed the audience down a bit.

As the crowd squeezed to Gate 17, Kazuma Kudo, who had joined Conan and the others, was dragging someone along with each hand.

"One of these two men was carrying a Beretta, and the other was carrying a Tokarev. He tried to resist when I caught him."

"As for their reasons for retaliating against society and Japan's TV station... well... it's hard to say. I suggest you ask them again yourselves."

The two people he captured were naturally the two who caused trouble in the Emperor's Cup final in the original storyline.

Their reason for wanting to retaliate against Nichiri TV was indeed outrageous—it turned out that the two men had spent three years saving up a lot of money and devising a very ingenious bank robbery plan.

Then, on the day they had planned for a perfect bank robbery, with all the right timing, location, and people, the bank hired celebrities from a local TV station to participate in a one-day store manager variety show. The constant filming by the TV station and the large gathering of fans caused their supposedly brilliant bank robbery to completely fail.

One of the men's wives had hoped to live a good life with the money she got from robbing a bank, but her three-year plan failed in one fell swoop. The woman couldn't accept it, drowned her sorrows in alcohol, and eventually committed suicide.

The robber, a former soldier whose wife had died, blamed everything on Nichiri TV.

In order to avenge his beloved wife, he spent a year working as a cameraman at Nichiri TV and, together with his partner, orchestrated the indiscriminate coercion incident during the Emperor's Cup final.

Then, just as he made his first call to the Metropolitan Police Department, the surrounding explosions shattered his revenge plan...

Although this robbery trainee sounds pitiful, Kudo Kazuma just wants to say—if you have a skill, why rob a bank? If those three years of planning the bank robbery had come to Japan to work at the TV station earlier, they might already be living a good life on their salary!

Shocked by this absurd reason, Kudo Kazuma used the [Sound Bewitching] skill to shift the blame for the explosion onto them—since their motives were already so outrageous, it wouldn't be surprising if such outrageous people took revenge on society, right?

On his way to find Conan, Kazuma Kudo tried out his skill [Life Aura]. After spending 100 points, he gained a 5120x recovery speed. In just a few dozen seconds, the wound was no longer visible on the outside; only the inside still needed a few minutes to recover.

After taking out a matching jacket from the system space and changing into it, Kudo Kazuma brought the two scapegoats to Gate 17.

With the "real culprit" caught, the case of the Emperor's Cup explosion has temporarily come to a close for the detective.

Next, the only thing that ordinary people like Kudo Kazuma and Conan could come into contact with was the police rescue operation.

Apart from those who died or were injured when Gates 1 and 2 were bombed at the beginning, almost everyone who tried to escape through other exits starting from Gate 10 ended up being the unlucky ones who happened to be caught in the explosion at the exact same time.

In this massive explosion, a total of 84 people were killed by the blast, crushed, trampled, or died from severe injuries before they could even get to the hospital. Three others were declared missing, and apart from Kazuma Kudo, no one knew that their bodies had been left in the system space.

These 87 people brought Kudo Kazuma a total of 968 points, almost enough for one points lottery draw.

In addition to the 87 people mentioned above, at least a thousand people were injured in the entire venue by the explosion, crushing, trampling, or being hit by broken glass and stones. Most of these injuries were caused by the trampling.

Such heavy casualties, especially during the Emperor's Cup final, naturally shocked the entire nation. But to say whether this has anything to do with Kazuma Kudo...

As soon as he got home, he saw Amuro Tooru, whose face was even darker than Hattori Heiji's, waiting for him.

"Danpo!"

"What?" Kudo Kazuma glanced at him, his tone not very friendly. "Don't come to me if you want to confront me. You should know very well who did it."

Amuro Tooru's expression froze.

It's rum.

He is very clear.

After all, it was he who told Rum about Dampo's itinerary.

Rum wanted to do something to Dampo, so he made such a big fuss.

Ironically, Danpo was perfectly fine, but he managed to alarm the entire Metropolitan Police Department and even the Public Security Bureau...

After learning about the massive explosion from Kazami, Amuro Tooru immediately went to find Tanpo.

He wasn't even sure what he was there for—was he there to confront him? Or to discuss how to deal with Rum?

While Amuro Tooru was deep in thought, Kudo Kazuma was already making a phone call to complain.

"Big brother! Did you know about the explosion at the National Stadium? I don't know what that old bastard Rum was thinking. Not only did he cause such a huge commotion, but he also took the opportunity to send a sniper to deal with me!"

The person on the other end of the phone snorted coldly and slammed the call down.

Kudo Kazuma pursed his lips and simply dialed a second number.

"Sister~ Today, Ran, Conan, and I went to the National Stadium to watch the Emperor's Cup final, and then a super-huge explosion happened! I was so focused on killing those troublemakers that I didn't even have time to protect Ran and the others. Sigh... After something so terrible happened, I need your comfort, sister~"

"What?" Vermouth's voice instantly turned cold on the other end of the phone. "Well done, Rum is really something! Little Zhen, you keep an eye on those two lately, I'll take care of Rum!"

Amuro Tooru didn't hear what Vermouth said, but he heard Tanpo's affected and pretentious manner, and couldn't help but frown and ask, "Are you... tattling?"

"What's wrong?" Kudo Kazuma asked confidently. "Rum can cause trouble, but I can't tattle on him?"

He snorted irritably, "If that coward hadn't been hiding so well, I would have gone and killed him right now! What's the point of complaining!"

At this point, he suddenly rested his chin on his hand and looked at Amuro Tooru: "Hey you, didn't you say your lover is this country? Rum has already made advances on your lover, can you tolerate that?"

Amuro Tooru couldn't help but take two steps back, his brows furrowed, looking disgusted by Kudo Kazuma's words.

Unfazed, Kudo Kazuma continued, "Toru, use your great skills as a public security undercover agent to find Rum's hiding place! As long as you find him, I'll take care of the murder and burying of the body. How about it?"

Toru Amuro: "..."

If he could find Rum's location, would he need to use Danpo?

Are you kidding me?
