A group of people dressed up as Conan characters, and I guaranteed the Black Team's advancement

Tokyo Municipal Hospital

Iori took a pink wallet out of his coat pocket, his eyes scanning the crowd in the distance.

"Isn't this the wallet I lost yesterday?" Ooka Momiji exclaimed in surprise when she saw the wallet in Iori Muga's hand. "Speaking of which, I lost my wallet at the hospital yesterday because I accidentally bumped into someone."

"Did you hit someone?" Iori Muga turned his gaze back to Ooka Momiji, then narrowed his eyes at the bodyguard. "What happened?"

The bodyguard immediately tensed up. Ooka Momiji explained, "It was my own carelessness. But the person I bumped into, I think, was also wearing a black hoodie."

Was it the same person yesterday and just now? Iori Muga speculated in her mind. Regardless of whether that person did it intentionally or not, it was enough to prove that someone was likely following the young lady.

In the hospital's underground parking lot, a furtive figure appeared next to a car, squatting by the vehicle, seemingly doing something unknown.

Suddenly, he stopped what he was doing because Xiao Hei sensed someone behind him. Xiao Hei turned around sharply, but the other person's hand was already aimed at his neck.

"Finally found you." The person in front of him fell down. Jiang Jin flexed his wrists and looked down at the fallen Xiao Hei. This person was none other than Kaieda Tougo, Achiba Kensuke's secretary. Jiang Jin squatted down and took off the ring on Kaieda Tougo's thumb. Then he looked at the bomb that had just been stuffed under the car but hadn't been installed yet. "This one is mine."

When Iori Muga and the other two arrived at the parking lot, they saw Kaieda Tougo lying unconscious on the ground. The bodyguards stood guard in front of Ooka Momiji, while Iori Muga went up to wake Kaieda up.

"Sir, are you alright?" Iori Muga asked, though he seemed concerned that the man was awake. In his heart, he found the man very suspicious.

Kaieda Togo sat up, clutched his neck, and stared blankly for a few seconds before suddenly remembering something. His face turned pale as he got up, ignoring Iori Muga completely.

"This person is so rude, just leaving without saying a word?" Ooka Momiji frowned, while Iori Muga got up and checked the car inside and out, but found nothing suspicious.

"Please get in the car first, Miss."

The car drove back to the hotel, and as Ooka Momiji and her two companions entered the lobby, an explosion rang out. The hotel lobby lights swayed, and then with a "bang!", the hotel was plunged into darkness.

The guests still in the lobby panicked, and screams, questions, and reassuring voices from hotel staff filled the darkness.

Ooka Momiji felt someone bump into her in the darkness, and she almost fell, but luckily someone caught her.

Once the lobby's power was restored, Ooka Momiji finally recognized that the person who had helped her was Iori Muga. She quickly asked, "Iori, did you bump into me just now?"

Iori Muga was taken aback: "What?"

“Just now, someone bumped into me in the dark…” Before Ooka Momiji could finish speaking, Iori Mugo pointed to her handbag, “Miss, your bag.”

Ooka Momiji looked down and saw a card tucked into her crossbody bag. She picked it up; it contained a message written in printed font—

[That was both a surprise and a warning to someone. Ms. Momiji, you absolutely must participate in tomorrow's karuta tournament; otherwise, we can't guarantee it won't just be a lighthearted joke.]

"This is……"

Outside the hotel, Jiang Jin sat in his car, watching the police cars that had rushed to the scene. He said into the phone, "Reporter Zhao, your first post can be published now."

The epicenter of the explosion was in the hotel's electrical room, where forensic investigators were collecting evidence. Conan and Heiji Hattori naturally followed.

Iori Muga explained the situation to the police on behalf of Momiji, and also handed over the card that had been stuffed into Momiji's handbag.

"Warning? Who is this criminal warning?" Hattori Heiji asked curiously. Conan rested his chin on his hand, deep in thought, when a thought suddenly struck him. "Could it be about Mr. Sekine's car exploding?"

"What do you mean?"

Conan felt like he'd grasped something: "Actually, I'm not quite sure yet, wait a minute... what's that?"

Heiji Hattori followed Conan's gaze and noticed something reflecting light in the corner. He walked over and squatted down, discovering that it looked like a ring.

“It seems to be a gemstone ring.” Hattori Heiji picked up the ring with his handkerchief. Conan looked at the ring and said, “This ring looks familiar… I remember now, it belongs to Kaieda Togo, the secretary of Chairman Achiba. There was a picture of him in that magazine, and this gemstone ring was on his thumb.”

Heiji Hattori seemed to recall something after Conan's reminder: "How did his ring end up here? Could it be that he planted the bomb?"

"Shall we ask Butler Iori again? See if they encountered anything before returning to the hotel."

Hattori Heiji nodded in agreement, and the two found Iori Muga. Upon hearing this, Iori Muga immediately said, "We did encounter something strange before returning to the hotel. In front of the hospital parking lot, we found a man lying on the ground who seemed to be unconscious. After I woke him up, he left in a panic."

Conan held up his phone and showed it to Iori Muga: "Iori, is this the person you're looking at?"

Iori Muga recognized him and nodded: "It is indeed him."

Just as Conan and Heiji Hattori were questioning Muga Iori, a surprised shout rang out from not far away: "What did you say! What's going on!"

The three exchanged glances and walked towards Inspector Megure, asking what had happened. Inspector Megure handed them the officer's phone: "Just now, a post suddenly appeared online with the title 'Shocking! Satsuki Cup Serial Bombings, What's the Killer's Motive?'"

The post's content consisted of the author's inferences, which was relatively normal. However, as you read on, you'll find that the post begins to speculate about everyone involved in the case.

The content about Ooka Momiji that could move Inspector Megure so much was naturally related to the post. The author of the post speculated that the Ooka family had offended someone, which led to the murderer's arrival.

The comments section has already seen tens of thousands of discussions and speculations about the Ooka family, with tens of thousands of reposts.

"Inspector, this post has been forwarded over 100,000 times. Although we have contacted the cyber security department to control public opinion, they say they can't find the specific IP address of the post's source."

After reading the post, Conan found that the case details were very clear, and there were many details that the police had not yet released.

“The culprit is clearly targeting Ms. Ooka Momiji. I think she shouldn’t continue participating in tomorrow’s competition,” Inspector Megure suggested to Iori Muga out of concern for Ooka Momiji’s safety.

"No, I must participate in tomorrow's competition."
