Model worker and his little darling

Not long after, Shiratori brought Teiji Moriya to the scene, along with a map showing the location of the bombs. Inspector Megure took a look and, sure enough, there was no trace of the explosion.

When Teiji Moriya saw Ran standing safely next to Uncle Mori, he glanced at the crowd and looked disappointed.

"Where is that coward Shinichi Kudo? Hasn't he shown up yet?"

Uncle Mori grabbed Teiji Moriya by the collar. "Tell me, did you plant any other bombs? Or do you have other accomplices?"

"Hahaha... Since we failed to kill Shinichi Kudo, destroying this building is fine too. Let me tell you, I did all of this. I also planted bombs in many places. You can take your time to find them. If you can't find them, even more people will die."

"Isn't Shinichi Kudo known as the savior of the Japanese police? With such a huge incident, why hasn't he shown up yet? Could he really be dead? Ms. Mouri, do you think the person you're supposed to take to the movies with is really Shinichi Kudo? Hahaha..."

Ran glared angrily at Teiji Moriya. "Impossible! He must still be alive. He promised to go to the movies with me." She then clutched the bag in her arms tightly; it was Shinichi's birthday present.

Conan stared intently at Teiji Moriya, wondering how much of what he said was true and how much was false, and whether there really were other explosives.

"Really? So he knew his girlfriend was almost killed in the explosion, but he still didn't show up. Does he really care about you? Or is it that he couldn't show up?"

Ran murmured, "There's no way to appear? There's no way to appear..." Then she looked at Conan with teary eyes.

Following Ran's gaze, Teiji Moriya saw Conan. "Could this little brother be Shinichi Kudo? But from what I know, Shinichi Kudo wasn't as smart as this little brother when he was this young."

Xiaolan was taken aback. "Is that so?"

Seeing that Xiaolan was in a bad mood, Yuanzi pulled her aside.

Tsk tsk, just like that, we missed the truth.

Suddenly, a few more people arrived, and Pingqing silently approached Inspector Megure.

Hmm? They're Japanese Public Security personnel, and there's even a member of parliament inside. Too bad, Touko won't be there for a situation like this.

Ping Qing's eyes flashed. Was this Gin's purpose?

Soon, Takagi also ran over, "Officer, other buildings designed by Teiji Moriya have also started to explode, and a prosecutor was killed at the scene of the explosion."

Moriya Teiji remained calm and composed, as if everything was within his calculations.

Pingqing glanced at him curiously. Wasn't this guy just trying to kill Shinichi Kudo? Faced with an explosion that was out of control, he didn't say a word. Did he want to take revenge on society?

However, Gin made such a big fuss but didn't include him. Humph, I'm not happy (?﹏?)

Uncle Mori held back for a long time, but he couldn't take it anymore and raised his fist to beat up Teiji Moriya.

But as soon as his hand touched the person, Moriya Teiji fell to the ground and became motionless, leaving Uncle Mori stunned on the spot.

In an instant, all the cameras snapped photos of Uncle Mori.

Inspector Megure had no choice but to have the reporters blocked off and begin investigating on the spot. It turned out that Teiji Moriya had already taken poison, and this had nothing to do with Uncle Mori.

After this incident, Inspector Megure had Takagi take Heikiyo and his group home.

The next day, the media gave extensive coverage to the bombing, especially the police's decision to detonate the bomb after knowing the perpetrator, causing numerous casualties, which was described as utterly incompetent.

The Metropolitan Police Department was suddenly thrust into the spotlight.

Even Uncle Mori couldn't get a good word out of him; many people said he was unworthy of the title of famous detective.

Pingqing looked at Uncle Mori, who was drinking alone, and shrugged at Xiaolan. He couldn't do anything about it either.

However, judging from Ran's appearance, it seems she has already forgotten what Shinichi Kudo looks like.

Inspector Megure reported that a map showing the distribution of other bombs had been found at Teiji Moriya's house, and the police have confirmed that Moriya was responsible for everything.

Even though they knew there was something wrong, they still pinned everything on Teiji Moriya.

Conan then went to Professor Agasa's house, where he could speak his mind without any reservations.

"Kudo, what kind of person is Ito Heikiyo?"

Conan was startled: "He's a member of the organization?"

Seeing Conan's anxious look, Ai Haibara coldly replied, "No."

Through spending these past few days with Conan, she has come to understand his temperament and personality. If he encounters the organization, he will rush in without regard for the difference in strength between the two sides or the personal safety of those around him.

Moreover, she wasn't sure if Ito Hirakiyo was actually a member of the organization, but he was definitely dangerous.

Conan recounted what he knew about Hirai, and since his father believed Hirai to be trustworthy, he never doubted him, mainly because Hirai hadn't done anything during this time.

Seeing how much Conan trusts Hirai makes Ai Haibara less wary of him.

"Haibara, do you know what honor is? What about Miyamoto Musashi?"

Ai Haibara paused for a moment, then gently shook her head.

Conan asked about all the organizations he had heard about from the person at the jewelry store, but Ai Haibara knew nothing about any of them.

As Conan recounted what happened back then, Ai Haibara glanced at him in surprise. Was a high school detective really that easy to fool?

"Was this bombing orchestrated by the organization? Is Teiji Moriya a member of the organization?"

"He is not a member of the organization. As for the bombing, it was actually quite like the organization's style. They act very quickly and destroy all evidence without leaving any trace."

"It seems to be related to the organization after all. Damn it, if I had been more careful, I could have found their trail."

Ai Haibara shook her head as she looked at Conan. Even though she grew up in the organization, she couldn't say she knew much about it, and she hadn't met many of the codenamed members. Yet Conan was daydreaming about destroying the organization.

Is it naiveté, or simply the fearlessness of ignorance?

……

At this time, Hirakiyo had already boarded a plane to the United States.

Upon exiting the airport, he noticed a flashy red convertible parked outside, with a melancholic, handsome man standing beside it. It was his childhood friend, Margot.

Ping Qing watched him show off with a speechless expression. His outfit made people around him glance at him frequently.

"You told me you were going to die, but I see you're perfectly fine, and you even have the mood to act cool."

Margot saw Pingqing sighing and shaking his head, "You don't understand, my heart is dead."

Ping Qing got into the passenger seat and said, "Alright, let's go."

Margot took Pingqing directly to a bar. Watching the men and women twisting and turning in the center of the dance floor, Pingqing rubbed his temples. The songs were bad and too noisy, giving him a headache.

Upon arriving at a private room, we found a table laden with wine.

"Come on, let's drink until we drop tonight!"

Ping Qing's lips twitched. "Margot, are you planning to drink yourself to death? Let me make this clear, I'm not going to collect your corpse."

"She's gone. She doesn't want me anymore."

Huh? Who left?

Seeing Pingqing's bewildered expression, Margot picked up a glass of wine and drank it.

"We broke up. She's going to study in Germany. She says she wants to become the best designer in the world..."

After listening to Margot's rambling for a while, Pingqing finally couldn't take it anymore and slapped Margot on the head. "Just because you got dumped, you told me that if I didn't go back to America, I wouldn't be able to see you one last time. I rushed all the way back to see you, and this is what you get?"
