Out-of-control players in the world of Detective Conan

Chapter 315 The game begins

"Qi Ming?!"

Conan turned around and saw Qi Ming holding him by the back of his collar, smiling at him.

"Could that old man be one of the organization? Is this also part of your plan?"

Conan asked Qi Ming in a deep voice.

Qi Ming patted Conan's head in an annoyed tone.

"You've really become afraid of the organization for ten years after taking the medicine once. Don't try to shift the blame onto our organization for everything."

“That old man has nothing to do with our organization; it was all his own initiative.”

Hearing Qi Ming's explanation, Conan had no doubts.

Although Qi Ming's character is questionable, he rarely lies.

"Qi Ming".

Shuichi Akai suddenly spoke up, his right eye fixed on Qi Ming.

"Oh? You actually noticed?"

Qi Ming glanced at Shuichi Akai with some surprise, but then looked down at Conan.

Hmm, it seems these two must have exchanged information while they were away.

Otherwise, how could someone have seen through my perfect disguise?

"Hey, this should be our first meeting, right? It feels like you've heard of me before?"

Qi Ming suddenly asked Akai Shuichi a question.

In my memory, I seemed to be the one who was toying with him, so why does he sound like he knows me quite well?

Did he see me blowing him up when I was playing Speed ​​Drifters last time?

"..."

Shuichi Akai did not answer.

If you told Qi Ming that you had secretly broken into his house before, that would be terrible.

"Your target is me, there's no need to involve so many people."

"really."

Qi Ming nodded with a sense of reason, then said sarcastically.

"You came here for the organization, so why drag my sister and me into it?"

My sister and me?

Conan's eyes darted around Qi Ming and Shuichi Akai with a somewhat blank expression.

He later realized that Qi Ming's current appearance was that of Ai Haibara after she grew up.

There is a story.

Ai Haibara and that crazy woman actually have connections to this FBI?

Although Conan and Shuichi Akai talked about a lot of things, Conan was unaware of such private matters, and Shuichi Akai had no reason to mention them.

However, Qi Ming's disguise was a bit too convincing, wasn't it?

"..."

Shuichi Akai was rendered speechless by Qi Ming's words.

He caught the slip-up in his own words again.

Just like when he talked to Ai Haibara last time, he couldn't refute this point at all.

Qi Ming then continued.

"The organization recruits people from all walks of life, including assassins, scientists, politicians, and even celebrities."

"You have so many ways to infiltrate the organization, why did you choose this method?"

Qi Ming tapped his chin slightly, then his eyes lit up and he clapped his hands.

"I understand. Your FBI is underfunded and can only use the most impoverished methods."

"Then you stumbled upon my sister, and after some investigation, you found that she was so naive and honest, she was practically the perfect person to take advantage of, wasn't she?"

"Yes, I have an idea."

Shuichi Akai slowly clenched his fist, his hand resting on his trouser leg.

Qi Ming's analysis is quite good. Their choice of Miyano Akemi was not just a coincidence, but premeditated.

Now that Qi Ming has revealed the truth, and using Shiho Miyano's face and voice, Hideki Akai suddenly felt ashamed.

"..."

Conan stared blankly at the two of them.

Something seems wrong.

I have a feeling they've become the villains.

Wait a minute, the topic seems to have gone off track.

Shouldn't they be talking about stopping Kisaragi Mine from detonating the bomb?

"Although this wasn't part of my plan, just shooting and then the poison circle... that's kind of interesting."

Qi Ming stretched and said to himself.

Then, in front of Conan and Shuichi Akai, he took a remote control out of his pocket.

What is this?

Conan looked at the remote control in Qi Ming's hand and asked blankly.

"It means my game has already begun."

Qi Ming chuckled and then pressed the red button on the remote control.

boom!

A huge explosion rang out, and the back of the banquet hall exploded with a deafening roar.

Those who were close by either died directly in the flames or were blown away by the storm, lying on the ground with their fate unknown.

Qi Ming had already simulated the number of bombs that Ruyue Fengshui had placed.

The bombs he planted wouldn't destroy the entire floor, but the small explosions would cause a fire that would slowly spread and eventually burn down the whole floor.

"What happened, Ruyue Fengshui? Did you detonate the bomb?!"

The entire building shook violently, and people, looking at the flames burning behind the banquet hall, shouted in terror to Ruyue Fengshui.

"Old man, you haven't even started yet?"

As the building swayed, Ruyue Fengshui fell to the ground. He scratched his hands in confusion and looked around.

Where's the remote control?

Where did his remote control go?

He didn't detonate that bomb just now!

However, he didn't have time to think much before Kyogoku Makoto suddenly stepped forward and slapped Kisaragi Hidemizu on the back of the neck.

"you you……"

Conan stared at Qi Ming, his face pale, as he looked at the firelight burning not far away.

"We...we should run!"

Qi Ming imitated Conan's stuttering tone, then went into the crowd, pulled out the still confused Ai Haibara, and ran towards the stairs.

Damn it, what on earth is Qi Ming trying to do?!

Conan was distracted, while Shuichi Akai quickly went to the window and looked down.

The other floors were mostly intact, with some still burning, suggesting that the bombs planted by Ruyue Fengshui were not particularly powerful.

However, at the bottom of the skyscraper, flames and black smoke filled the air, suggesting that only a few floors were completely destroyed.

Shuichi Akai, regaining his senses, called out to Mio Tokiwa:

"Ms. Tokiwa, I remember there's a landing pad on the top floor, right?"

"Ah, oh, right!"

Shuichi Akai nodded, then said to Conan:

"Conan, call the police right now! Get them to send out helicopters, and send as many as possible!"

"Everyone, please don't panic! Let's run upstairs right now, the helicopter will be here shortly!"

……

The other tower of the twin towers.

Gin is pretty numbing right now.

I was just adjusting my sniper rifle in my room when suddenly the whole building exploded.

As Gin ran uphill with the vodka, he also glanced at another building outside the window.

It exploded over there too.

Without a doubt, this must be Qi Ming's doing!

Jingle Bell--

The phone rang, and Gin glanced at the name on the screen before answering with a dark expression.

Before the caller on the other end of the line could speak, Gin asked in a deep voice.

"Madera, what are you doing now? You've planted bombs throughout the building too?"

"Me? Are you kidding me? I don't have time to play with bombs."

Seeing that Qi Ming didn't seem to be joking, Gin pressed for more information.

"...Then what's going on?"

"This bomb was planted by someone else, it has nothing to do with me."

Qi Ming felt quite troubled. It was one thing that Conan and the others were on a different path from him, but they always assumed he was the one who was being blamed for all the bad things that happened to them.

Why do people in our organization think like this?

"Who cares about bombs? At least we've saved money on one bomb now."

"..."

Gin's lips twitched slightly, a rare occurrence.

What does it mean to save money on a bomb?

If that person's bomb explodes, won't our bombs also explode along with it?

"So, the operation has already begun?"

Gin glanced at the flickering flames in his building, and at the stairwell where people were constantly crowding to go up and down the stairs.

"Do not."

Qi Ming replied.

"The signal to begin will be when we fire at your building from our side."

Before Gin could ask any questions, the call was disconnected.

Gin stared at his phone; he really wanted to smash it.

But what does it mean that they fired at us from their side?
