Conan’s Corpse Picker

Chapter 1080: 1080【You must have good eyesight】

 Chapter 1080 1080【You must have good eyesight】

Haihara Ai thought silently: The worst case scenario is to send these careless naughty kids away first, and then look at the situation and secretly come back to look for Jiang Xia.

Thinking like this, Huiyuan Ai touched the heavy schoolbag on his back to strengthen his courage.

—In order to attend this banquet and successfully survive the unknown tasks assigned by the anonymous people, she obtained many possible props from the doctor. Hui Yuan Ai took a deep breath and felt that her combat effectiveness at this time was unprecedentedly high.

Several children chose the nearest safe passage and climbed the stairs to the communication bridge.

 …

 There are several safe passages in the building.

 Jiang Xia and Akai Shuichi did not encounter those who were seeking refuge, and walked all the way up to the 75th floor.

The first elevator that I just got off has not returned yet.

Soon he arrived at the entrance of the banquet hall. Jiang Xia put away the mobile phone that he had just finished sending the email. In front of him, "Okiya Subaru" had already pushed open the security door and entered the banquet hall.

Jiang Xia also walked in. The fireproof door closed behind them. Looking up, they happened to see a group of people waiting for the elevator diagonally opposite the entrance to the observation elevator.

  Hearing the sound of the door of the emergency passage being pushed open, a group of ladies waiting for the elevator were inevitably surprised: they did not expect that there was someone in the passage at this time.

They thought of the unknown bomb demon and turned around in panic.

Mao Lilan blocked the others behind him and clenched his fists instinctively.

Suzuki Sonoko, on the other hand, tacitly flashed the flashlight towards the person who came. At the same time, she grabbed one of Mao Lilan's shoulders, hid behind her friend to strengthen her courage, and asked in a stern voice: "Who?!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw clearly the person running towards them waving his hand.

Suzuki Sonoko was startled and surprised: "Jiang Xia! You..."

Halfway through the conversation, I suddenly felt something was wrong: "...Didn't Mr. Amuro say that you had already walked to Building B via the communication bridge just now?"

Jiang Xia: "..." I haven't seen you for a few minutes. Why is there another pot on the boss's back?

He glanced at Akai Shuichi who was following him from the corner of his eye, and remembered the murderous smell of coffee that was about to burst out. He thoughtfully helped the high-end coffee machine remove the new pot from his back: "That's what I thought, but I'm not too worried, so I just Come up and take a look first.”

While talking, Shuichi Akai also came to the elevator.

He glanced at the high school students who were chatting in low voices, and then glanced at the other people who stayed here—mostly young women. In order to attend the banquet, they wore various types of high heels, which were not as convenient as men. Climbing the stairs, so waiting for the elevator here.

 …

The sightseeing elevator in front of you is embedded on the outside of the building. It is convenient for viewing during the day, and it is also convenient for people to see clearly from the outside at night.

When Shuichi Akai came to load the bomb, he had already taken the opportunity to find out - the hardness of the walls of this elevator might not be able to protect the passengers inside from the organization's sniper rifle.

A few hundred meters away from this "Nishitama City Twin Building A" is the Nishitama City Municipal Building. The Municipal Building was once the tallest building in the area.

If the roof of the municipal building is used as a sniper point, after the height of the observation elevator drops to the 60th floor, it will enter the range of the sniper rifle.

In short, Akai Shuichi realized that the mysterious target targeted by the organization was probably in front of him—among the group of people waiting for the elevator. The FBI ace's slightly scrutinizing gaze was hidden behind non-threatening squinting eyes, and he secretly scanned the crowd.

 However, no matter how outstanding his ability is, Akai Shuichi cannot read minds after all, and it is almost the first time for him to see the group of people in front of him, so it is difficult to distinguish them at the moment.

 …

Beside him, Jiang Xia seemed unaware of all this and was asking two of his classmates about the situation upstairs.

“After the explosion, we immediately tried to find a way to leave, and then divided into two waves. One wave went down to the 60th floor to find the communication bridge, and the other wave took the elevator down.”

Suzuki Sonoko glanced down at her pointy high-heeled shoes, silently thinking that if she attended a banquet again in the future, she would have to customize a pair of shoes that could be removed at the base at any time, making it easier to run around.

She sighed, supported Jiang Xia, and stretched her sore ankle: "Fortunately, this elevator has an independent power supply and can still be used. But..."

Suzuki Sonoko looked at the newcomers Jiangxia and "Okiya Subaru", feeling a little sad - the elevator is limited to 9 people. Just now because Kisaragi Hosui had to be strong and strong to take the stairs, now only one more person can be seated.

Jiang Xia saw what she wanted to remind her: "Don't worry, when you get on the elevator, I will go to the communication bridge - the 60th floor is actually not that far from here."

Beside him, "Okiya Subaru" suddenly pushed up his glasses and answered jokingly:

"Indeed. Don't worry about us. Maybe we take the communication bridge and it will be safer than you taking the elevator."

“You must know that the sightseeing elevator has transparent walls. Maybe there is some malicious sniper guarding you on the opposite floor right now—this is often the case in movies.”

“…” Suzuki Sonoko glanced at him faintly: Why is Mr. Okiya so speechless today—it’s so unlucky!

Several other ladies felt that "Okiya Subaru" was really telling a joke. Out of politeness, they raised the corners of their lips and smiled in unison, and then turned to look at the electronic screen of the elevator absentmindedly. Obviously, they did not understand this sentence. I take my words to heart and just hope that the elevator will come up soon.

 …

Akai Shuichi's eyes captured their reactions accurately, but he couldn't find any abnormalities.

This made him frown slightly: the assassination targets of the organization, even if they were not associates of the organization, were probably outstanding figures from all walks of life. To use such a large-scale assassination tonight, the other party must be very vigilant.

 Such a person should not have no reaction when hearing the "joke" he just made.

Shuichi Akai: "..." Could it be that the "assassination target" was overly vigilant and thought one step ahead that "you might be sniped if you take the elevator", so he went elsewhere?

 A bomb was actually installed at one end of the communication bridge on the 60th floor.

However, until now, there has been no movement from the other side of the bridge, which shows that the target has not walked across the bridge—perhaps the person is still hiding in the building, hoping that after the firefighters extinguish the fire, he can blend into the crowd and leave.

 Also, speaking of goals…

Akai Shuichi's eyes fell on Suzuki Sonoko, and he felt that this hairstyle was vaguely familiar.

However, seeing the way Suzuki Sonoko chattered and talked to Jiang Xia, Akai Shuichi felt that this little girl didn't have much in common with "Shirley" except for her hair - even her hairstyle was not exactly the same, just roughly similar.

“…” Nowadays, there are not many ladies who follow the fashion of perming and curling their hair, and the light in the elevator is also very bright. The eyes of the organized sniper must not be that bad.

Thinking of this, Akai Shuichi no longer paid attention to the familiar feeling in his heart, and instead began to think about where the "target" was now.
