Conan: I Am Surrounded By Undercover

Chapter 424: Troubled Reservoir

"Crench-"

The wheels rubbed across the snow and dragged out two long traces, and the car swayed its tail and precisely snapped into the parking space.

Matsuda Jinpei used to be very good at drag racing, and he was well adapted to Sato Mikazu's drag racing skills. He unbuckled his seat belt and got out of the car first, and turned his head to look at the distribution of vehicles in the parking lot.

The car of the person who came back to check the situation first, as the reservoir staff said, happened to be parked next to him, and there was no one inside.

Mikazu Sato got out of the car right after, and the two ran to the reservoir together.

The Xinbei Nosawa Village Reservoir is one of the newly built reservoirs in Japan in recent years. The control room is located at a higher position in the center of the arch, where a panoramic view of the entire reservoir can be seen.

Because of the snowfall in the past few days, a thick layer of snow has accumulated on the storage water behind the reservoir. From a distance, it looks like a broad snowy plain, but Matsuda Jinpei knew that this was just the surface. In the event of an accident in the reservoir, the turbulent water under the seemingly harmless white snow would instantly engulf the entire village below.

With the sign hanging in front of the door, they first paid attention to the internal situation at the door, and after confirming that there was no ambush behind, they quickly ran into the interior of the reservoir.

The interior of the reservoir is quite empty, the first floor is very high, there are basically no furnishings inside, the light falls from a high place, and the environment is much darker than the outside. Sato Miwako looked left and right and saw a man lying face down in front of a drain.

Seeing the words printed on the clothes on the back of the man, she immediately understood that this was the staff inside the reservoir, and ran forward to check.

"Hey, wake up! Cheer up!"

Matsuda Jinping ran over and squatted beside the employee. He lowered his head and looked at him, and found that the other party had no obvious trauma, only two small burn marks on his clothes that could easily be ignored.

"It was an electric shock. Someone attacked the staff of the reservoir."

Matsuda Jinping's face was ugly. In the car, he made some guesses about the loss of contact with the reservoir staff, but he didn't expect to hit the worst one.

He reached out to the gun attached to his waist, pulled it out and held it in his hand.

Police are one of the few special occupations that can legally hold guns and are allowed to kill people in critical moments, but there are strict restrictions on whether they can shoot.

After joining the search class, Matsuda Jinhei basically used manual uniforms for criminals who tried to escape, and rarely needed to shoot. He held a gun more often in police academies and training grounds.

"Matsuda, be careful!"

Sato Miwako also drew his gun and reminded Matsuda Jinhei aloud.

Qualification is a very helpless thing in the Japanese workplace. Matsuda Jinhei, who is older than Sato and has less qualifications than Sato in the first search class, listened to his senior's reminder, clenched the gun in his hand and nodded: "I know."

The situation was urgent, and they were insufficiently staffed to carry out further rescue of the employee. The two continued to rush to the control room above.

The building is three stories high, and they ran up the stairs, only the sound of their hurried footsteps echoed in the open space. The two quickly ran to the top floor. In front of the door of the control room, the two leaned against the door one by one and looked at each other. Mikazu Sato nodded slightly.

Matsuda Jinping clenched the gun in his hand, turned around and kicked the door open.

The fragile door panel slammed onto the floor with a clatter, and Matsuda Jinpei raised his pistol and aimed it inside.

When they saw the scene inside clearly, both of them were stunned.

The control room was not big, and it was a mess inside. Archives, water glasses, and writing pens fell in the shadows, and the heater fell on the ground. There were only two reservoir employees inside, one was lying face down on an instrument, and the other male employee with glasses was sitting on the cabinet, also unconscious.

Sato Miwako temporarily put down the gun and went to the glasses employee to check: "This was also stunned by an electric shocker."

Matsuda Jinhei stood behind her and carefully helped the other employee to lean back on the chair, so as not to accidentally touch any switch if he continued to lie on the machine.

He frowned, and things were far worse than he thought.

The bombing of the hotel was not only for the sake of silence, but also for the two policemen who were staying in the hotel. If the red-haired man didn't lie, then the mastermind of this incident is not only this Yamao Keisuke, but also someone who took him in after he was released from prison.

——And that person is most likely the murderer who killed Kenji Hagihara in the past.

Yosuke Yamao didn't tell him what his college classmate looked like, he just made a quick judgment on the graduation photo.

The first row of graduation photos are mostly teachers, the first few rows are girls, and the taller boys will stand in the back.

So the bomber who died three years ago, the person standing beside him is most likely the prisoner.

Thinking of this, Matsuda Jinping gritted his teeth, his expression became uncontrollable, and he held the gun tightly in his hand.

For the past three years, he has dreamed of finding the **** bomber. After his application to be transferred to the special and serious crime department was rejected, he once wanted to resign to investigate by himself, but was handed over by his boss and sent to a search class...

He would never let that **** go.

Sato Mikako didn't notice his ugly face. Seeing that the reservoir was in critical condition, she hurriedly called the Niigata Prefectural Police again. In her narration, Matsuda Jinhei quickly calmed down and realized a more important issue.

Yamao Keisuke robbed and killed a jewelry store before for money, and the bomber put bombs in the apartment building to threaten the police was also for money, so they attacked the reservoir staff...for what?

There are also reasons for criminals to do things. Newspaper criminals or pleasure criminals who commit random crimes are only a few.

After a light snow, the sky began to clear. Sunlight fell into the control room through the window and shone on Matsuda Jinhei.

But he couldn't feel the slightest warmth, and a bad premonition flooded his heart.

"Please come here as soon as possible! This is most likely a re-crime committed by the suspect in the Tokyo tunnel bomb case!!...Don't say that the snow has blocked the road~lightnovelpub.net~ Now that the sky is clear, you can come by other routes!! "

Miwako Sato was still arguing with the Niigata Prefectural Police by the side, and Matsuda Jinping caught the key words inside.

bomb.

He almost rushed to the window, slammed the window open with a slam, stuck his head out and looked out.

The cold wind outside was blowing on his face, it was as cold as a knife cutting his skin, Matsuda Jinping looked up, his eyes widened in disbelief—

On the light gray outer wall more than ten meters away, several black bombs that he was very familiar with and had seen yesterday were installed there.

"Sato! Let the Niigata Prefectural Police send a mobile team here - those two **** planted a bomb on the reservoir!!!"

His volume was so loud that there was no need for Sato Miwako to relay it. The operator on the other end of the phone heard it directly: "What?!"

Matsuda Jinping was extremely upset. He turned around impatiently to take the phone, but when he turned around, he saw a sneaky figure flashing past the control room door.

In just an instant, he could clearly see the face of the other party.

A slender face, a midsection, a pair of black-rimmed glasses...

This is the face of the person standing beside the bomber in the graduation photo.
