Shiratori remained unusually calm and composed, standing up and glancing inside his car. "There are no bombs in the passenger seat or the back seat, so it looks like they were planted in the glove box... no, the trunk is also a possibility."

"This bomb appears to be detonated using a signal."

Fujino examined the detonator and analyzed, "Besides those places, there could be bombs planted anywhere on the car, and we can't even rule out the possibility of remote detonation."

"In that case, the notice letter must be real."

Shiratori's expression darkened slightly. He took out his phone from his pocket, took two steps back, and glanced around. "And if there really is a possibility of remote detonation, that guy might be watching from nearby... Let's step back and avoid being affected by the blast wave."

Fujino stepped back and did not rush to defuse the bomb.

Signal-triggered bombs are usually accompanied by various uncertainties.

Especially those split-type ones, you never know when they might explode.

Fujino could disarm this bomb, but there was no need for him to.

Although he had bomb disposal skills to save his life, the bystanders around him did not.

The power of the bomb is still uncertain. If it explodes, passersby might be killed.

Defusing a bomb is one thing if done well, and another if done poorly.

Nobody cares who planted the bomb; the important thing is who had it explode.

If the bomb disposal really affects the public, then you'll be the one to blame!

"Hey, you two, what are you doing sneaking around like that?"

At this moment, Sato Miwako noticed that the two looked strange and leaned over suspiciously, saying, "Are you perhaps discussing some shady little secret?"

Fujino: "..."

So, you're the Tough Woman Miss.

We didn't even have time to back away from that bomb.

You actually came closer...

After a moment of silence, Fujino explained, "There was a bomb planted in Shiratori's car."

Sato Miwako was stunned. "A bomb...?"

"That's right, it was Advisor Fujino who discovered it. We are currently discussing how to deal with this bomb."

Shiratori explained for a moment, then ordered Sato Miwako, "Officer Sato, you go and contact headquarters to seal off this street, and also notify the Explosives Disposal Team to come over. Takagi, Fujino Takagi, and I will go and evacuate the surrounding crowd..."

"I see!"

Sato Miwako nodded seriously, then added, "Then be careful, especially Fujino, don't act on your own!"

"Mmm!"

Fujino gave her a reassuring look. "Don't worry, I promise I won't act on my own!"

Sato Miwako: "..."

Why do I feel like what you're saying is a bit weak and powerless?

Based on Fujino's past record, Sato Miwako felt that Fujino's words were not very credible.

If someone says they won't act without authorization, they will most likely act without authorization; if they say they will act without authorization, they will definitely act without authorization.

Knowing this well, she was actually worried about Fujino, who had suddenly become docile.

So he instructed Shiratori Ninzaburo, "Shiratori- kun, keep an eye on Fujino, and whatever you do, don't let him go up to defuse the bomb."

"No problem."

Shiratori assured, "After all, he just saved my life, so I will definitely keep an eye on him."

"Hmm, it would be best to handcuff him..."

Sato nodded in satisfaction, then quickly exclaimed in surprise, "Hey, wait a minute, I was just saying, just keep an eye on him."

"Oh."

Disappointed, Shiratori silently put away the handcuffs.

Fujino: "..."

Inspector Shiratori, do you really want to handcuff me?

No, you two are such a pair! One of you dares to say it, and the other dares to do it!

Even though Sato is your goddess, you don't have to go to this extent to fawn over her!

And Tough Woman Miss, do you think my words have no credibility?

"Remember to keep an eye on him!"

Before leaving, Sato Miwako gave one last instruction, then turned and began her operation.

As Shiratori watched her retreating figure, he couldn't help but sigh, "Advisor Fujino, Officer Sato really cares about you."

"Really? Maybe it's because I'm quite young."

With dead fish eyes and arms crossed, Fujino said seriously, "After all, I'm only eighteen years old and a high school student. Someone like her, an older sister, would definitely not feel at ease."

"You're eighteen?"

"Eighteen years old, a high school student, doesn't that seem like it?"

"No, it's nothing."

Shiratori Ninzaburo's expression turned strange for a moment.

Fujino's reminder made him realize that the person next to him was indeed only eighteen years old and a high school student.

To be honest, he would have almost forgotten about this if he hadn't been reminded.

Compared to a high school student, he felt that Fujino was more like his colleague.

The main issue is that the age of eighteen is simply outrageous.

What kind of normal 18-year-old high school student catches drug dealers and murderers every day and defuses bombs on the side?

You're telling me this is eighteen years old?

About ten minutes later.

The crowd was evacuated, the entire street was blocked off, and the bomb squad from the Metropolitan Police Department arrived at the scene.

Beside the blockade line, Shiratori, who had taken command of the scene, put down the phone and said to Fujino beside him, "Advisor Fujino, the type of bomb is about the same size as you guessed. They say it seems quite troublesome."

"Well, after all, it's a bomb detonated by a signal."

Fujino lowered his eyes and pondered, "We can't find the detonation wire, so we can't determine the location of the bomb. If the perpetrator is still at the scene, he could even detonate it remotely... It hasn't exploded yet, so it seems that guy isn't there."

"That thug was really cunning!"

Mitsuhiko glanced nervously at the car in the distance. "If Inspector Shiratori had gotten into that car, he'd probably be..."

"Yes, thanks to Advisor Fujino."

Shiratori couldn't help but sigh. Although he had long been accustomed to life and death, he still couldn't help but feel lingering fear as he said, "Otherwise, I would have been blown up into the sky along with the car just now."

"If that's the case, then the assailant must have come for the police, right?"

Conan, who had been deep in thought, suddenly spoke up, "The criminals first used the false information that someone had planted a bomb in the store where the car was parked to lure Takagi and Officer Shiratori to investigate. Then, while the two were inside the store, they planted the real bomb in the car and quickly fled the scene..."

"False intelligence about planting a bomb?"

Upon hearing this, Shiratori lowered her eyes, then asked him with a puzzled look, "But speaking of which, Little Brother Conan, how did you know about this?"

"Ah?"

Conan was taken aback for a moment, then put on a childlike expression and laughed, "Officer Takagi told me!"

"Takagi..."

Upon hearing this, Shiratori revealed a deadpan expression and turned to look at Takagi beside him.

Well...

Takagi gave an awkward smile, speechless under his intense gaze.
