"Ah, Teacher Jingzi! The bathroom is in the opposite direction!" No matter how Conan shouted, Jingzi ran away in a straight line as if she didn't hear him.

Quan Yi narrowed his eyes.

"Teacher Jingzi must be very nervous too.

Yingli sighed softly and began to confirm the prosecution's evidence with Xiaolan.

At this moment, Conan heard a rustling sound in his ears. This was the eavesdropping audio signal received by the criminal's tracking glasses.

Conan used the left lens of his glasses to confirm the location of the transmitter. The light spot indicating its location was flashing very close to the center of the radar.

Conan patted Quan Yi beside him and said, "The public security personnel have taken action."

Bai Quanyi nodded: "Okay, let's go."

The Metropolitan Police Department Criminal Division, where Shiraizumi Masu works, and the Japanese Public Security Bureau are two completely unrelated organizations. Although there is cooperation, there are more conflicts.

Amuro Toru is on Gin's must-kill list

The two of them ran down the corridor, turned the corner and came to the first-floor staircase landing. The lobby was crowded with people.

"Is it Kazami?" Izumi asked while running.

"Yeah, damn it—where the hell is it?!"

Just as Conan was looking around at the crowd in the hall, a familiar melody suddenly came from the eavesdropping device.

"Is this teacher Jingzi's cell phone ringtone?!" Conan screamed out.

"Oh, I'll be right back."

Conan was so surprised that he took off his glasses when he heard Jingzi talking on the phone.

"Why is Teacher Saeko's voice coming from Detective Kazami's bug? Is she just somewhere near Detective Kazami?"

"No, that's not right!" Quan Yi immediately denied Conan's statement, "They are already within the range of hearing the sound, which means that the two people should maintain a very close distance. This is not a coincidence..."

After listening to Quan Yi's words, Conan put on his glasses again and looked down at the lobby with a serious expression.

A joint investigation meeting between the Criminal Division and the Public Security Division was being held in the Metropolitan Police Department's conference room. Kazami, who was sitting next to the Public Security Division, reported on the results of the investigation.

"According to the investigation results of our Ministry of Public Security, it has now been confirmed that 'Nor' was used to illegally access the explosion site."

"Nor?" asked Megure, who was sitting next to Kuroda on the stage.

"Browser software that encrypts IP addresses and routes them across multiple computers, making their origin untraceable."

“Can Nor’s anonymity be lifted?”

Kuroda asked, and Kazami immediately replied, "In principle, it cannot be lifted."

"However, if the Nor browser has a configuration error or a bug, it could potentially identify the user. Conversely, if we were to create a vulnerability in the criminal's Nor browser, we might be able to track him. Currently, our Ministry of Public Security is exploring whether we can track down the server and identify the user."

"I don't know if it's Nor or something else, but is it possible for Mori-kun to do something like this?"

Megure raised an objection. He couldn't imagine that Maori Kogoro, who knew nothing about computers, would use this kind of software. However—

"Nor is easy to operate, even a beginner can use it." Kazami said with a cold look.

"It also……"

"What exactly do you want?" There was a commotion coming from the Criminal Division where Takagi and Sato were sitting. They all expressed doubts about the Public Security Bureau's tough approach of treating Kogoro Mori as a criminal no matter what.

At this time, Kazami took out his vibrating cell phone from his trouser pocket and said, "Sorry, I have a call. I will temporarily leave."

Kuroda nodded, "Hmm," and Kazami left through the back door.

Meanwhile, Conan was in the park next to the Metropolitan Police Department. He leaned against the pillar of the rest pavilion by the bridge, listening in on the investigation meeting with the eavesdropping device on his criminal tracking glasses. However, Quan Yi did not follow him. He returned to the meeting room. After all, he was too conspicuous compared to Conan.

"convene?"

Conan couldn't help but tilt his head when he heard Kazami's words from the eavesdropping device.

"Are you bugging the meeting?"

Suddenly, someone spoke from behind. Conan turned around in shock and saw Amuro walking towards him from the direction of the pillar.

"Why...why are you here..."

"As long as it's related to Maori Kogoro, you will risk your life, right? Or is it for Sister Xiaolan?"

With his hands in his trouser pockets, Amuro smiled provocatively, and Conan glared at him with his teeth clenched angrily.

Just then, a rustling sound came from the direction of the green bushes.

"It's okay, come out."

After Amuro finished speaking, Kazami appeared in front of the two of them.

"Why did you call me out, Mr. Furuya?"

Amuro silently approached Kazami, suddenly grabbed his arm and twisted it upwards, causing the latter to kneel down on one knee. Amuro took out the eavesdropping transmitter from the inside of Kazami's sleeve and held it in front of him, thus exposing the eavesdropping transmitter installed by Conan.

"Is this how you become a police officer?"

"I'm...I'm sorry." Feng Jian lowered his head in shame.

In front of Kazami, Amuro crushed the eavesdropping transmitter with his fingers, then let go of his hand and strode away.

Amuro thought he was very cool, but he didn't know that this behavior completely exposed his identity as a public security officer and put him on Gin's kill list.

·· ·······Request flowers····· ·····

"What is it...?"

Kazami held his arm which was twisted so hard that it hurt, and muttered unwillingly to himself. Conan, who had been staring at them blankly, suddenly came to his senses at this moment.

"and many more!"

Conan grabbed the skateboard leaning against the pillar and chased after Amuro, and Kazemi followed closely behind him.

He stopped in the middle of the bridge and looked around, but there was no sign of Amuro.

"Did you install the bug?"

Feng Jian asked this as he walked to the bridge, and quickly said, "No, it's impossible," and retracted his previous words.

"How could such a kid..." Unable to believe it, Kazami shook his head in self-deprecation, while Conan stared at him straight.

"Mr. Amuro is ZERO of the National Police Agency, which oversees the national public security police..."

. ....... 0

"Even among the public security police, only detectives within a certain range can come into contact with someone like Mr. Amuro, and Mr. Kazami is one of them."

The wind blew over, picking up fallen leaves and sending them flying between them. Feng Jian was stunned and took a step back nervously.

"Who are you?!" This was not something you should say to a child, but he couldn't help but ask.

"Edogawa Conan is a detective."

Conan gave him a mature look.

The boy holding the skateboard looked like just an elementary school student, but his words were strangely persuasive.

The gloomy sky was covered by dark clouds, and raindrops fell, stirring up ripples on the river surface. As Conan continued to move towards the other side of the bridge, Kazemi, who was leaning against the guardrail, spoke.

"The man you mentioned, Toru Amuro, is a murderer."

"...!"

Conan stopped and turned around.

"Last year, he pushed the subject of his interrogation to the point of suicide in the detention center, even though he was..."

Kazami stared at the raindrops dancing on the water and was silent for a while.

"I'm sorry, but this isn't something you should talk about with children. But for some reason I brought this up with you. You're such a strange child."

After saying that, Kazami left in the gradually increasing rain. Conan watched his back gradually disappear into the distance and also walked in the opposite direction.

We have a female traitor.

After Kazami left the room, the investigation meeting continued, finally coming to an end. Kuroda concluded the meeting by saying, "As soon as the Ministry of Public Security identifies the source of the access based on Nor, we will immediately submit this to the Tokyo District Public Prosecutors Office as supplementary evidence for prosecuting Kogoro Mori..."

“Excuse me!

Suddenly, the door in front was slammed open and Detective Chiba rushed in.

"Something terrible is happening in the city right now!"

Quan Yi was also reminiscing, listening silently to Chiba's report. The situation was becoming more and more critical.

……

The trains plying the city are packed with office workers and students, some sitting and some standing, most with their heads bent over their phones.

Suddenly, two high school girls screamed and threw their phones. A nearby office worker was looking at them, his phone suddenly emitting sparks.

"Wow!" He was so scared that he quickly let go of his hand, and a wisp of white smoke came out of the phone that rolled to the floor.

In an apartment facing a main road in the city, flames suddenly erupted from an air conditioner outdoor unit placed on the balcony.

"Wow! What's going on?!" The middle school boy rushed out of the room and immediately took off his school uniform and covered the outdoor unit with it to put out the fire.

On the main road downstairs, an out-of-control vehicle suddenly rushed towards pedestrians who were crossing the road on the crosswalk.

A convenience store clerk was heating up a lunch box in the microwave when suddenly sparks flew and the door burst open with a loud bang.

Then the cell phones of the customers standing at the cash register also caught fire, and in an instant everyone fled out of the store at the same time.

“Mom! Something bad has happened!!”

Hearing the child's voice, the parents asked what was going on and looked towards the bathroom, only to see a lot of foam coming out of the simple drum washing machine.

“Hey hey?!”

“Ugh!”

Before the stunned parents' eyes, the washing machine door flew open and clothes flew out.

At the same time, the electric kettle on the dining table began to spray boiling water, scaring the cat sleeping nearby to run around.

……

In the Tokyo District Public Prosecutors Office's Kusakabe room, the interrogation of Kogoro Mori is continuing.

The interrogation continued to repeat the same thing, and Kogoro Mouri, who could no longer contain his anger, jumped up from his chair.

"How many times do you have to ask the same question—"

Just as the prosecutor grabbed his shoulders from behind, sparks flew from the computer on the table and puffed out a wisp of green smoke.

……

In the Fei Law Firm, Xiaolan and Eri opened the wall-mounted electric window and saw flames and black smoke rising from the buildings outside. The sirens of fire trucks and the horns of cars were honking continuously.

All television programs were interrupted and all stations started broadcasting temporary news.

"In Tokyo, where security is heavily guarded for today's Tokyo Summit, mysterious phenomena are occurring one after another. While the Metropolitan Police Department has yet to officially release a statement regarding these events, not only in Japan but also in many summit-going nations, the Japanese government has expressed concern and criticism. There's also intelligence that computers and electric kettles are suddenly catching fire..."

Suddenly, there seemed to be a crackling sound coming from the TV, followed by sparks flying and the picture turned black.

"What the hell is going on...

Yingli stared blankly at the TV that was emitting white smoke.

……

The rain was still falling. In front of a large home appliance store in Shinjuku, Conan was looking up at a large display screen facing the street.

The roads were jammed and black smoke was coming out of buildings everywhere.

"Damn... What is the criminal's purpose...!" Conan was completely confused.

"I repeat: In Tokyo, where security is heavily guarded for today's Tokyo Summit, incredible phenomena have occurred in three locations in succession..."

Below the screen where the host was reading the news release, subtitles were scrolling: "Electrical appliances are on fire."

"Electrical appliances..."

Conan muttered to himself as he looked at his phone. Suddenly, a short text message from Quan Yi appeared on his phone. The message was just three letters: IOT.

Conan immediately remembered Noah's Ark's words: Just use your phone to set the pressure, temperature, and time, and you can make soup or something like that...

The moment Conan recalled the pressure cooker he had seen on the computer, he suddenly understood.
