Chapter 1269 Amuro Tooru, you rebellious disciple!
Seeing Yuya approach, Ran Mouri's lips twitched, wanting to laugh but unable to: "Yuya, you're here."
"Yes, Ran, don't worry, Uncle Kogoro will be fine."
Ran Mouri glanced at Conan and Yuya, and her tense shoulders finally relaxed—with them there, Dad would definitely be alright.
Yuya and Conan walked into the agency together. Conan caught a glimpse of his phone lying on the floor where he had just been standing. He quickly ran over to pick it up, checked the screen to make sure it wasn't broken, and then breathed a long sigh of relief.
On the other side, Kogoro Mouri roared, "How long are you going to search? You've made a mess of the room! Take them back right now!"
Miwako Sato and Wataru Takagi kept apologizing; they didn't want to, but they couldn't help it.
On the surface, it was them who brought people to search, but in reality, those plainclothes officers were all public security officers, and they couldn't get involved at all.
Yuya whispered to Takagi Wataru, "Officer Takagi~"
Takagi Wataru turned around, his face immediately lighting up with surprise: "Yuya-kun!"
Upon hearing the name, Kazami Yuya instinctively turned around and looked over.
Yuya's gaze sharpened slightly. Wasn't this Amuro Tooru's subordinate? He was locked in the basement last time.
Was he injured? Was he at the scene when the explosion happened? That makes sense, he's a police officer.
Takagi Wataru walked over and asked with a puzzled look, "Did Yuya-kun want to see me about something?"
Yuya whispered, "I want to know about the situation at the explosion site, and also—why is Uncle Kogoro being suspected?"
Takagi Wataru hesitated for a moment. Normally, this was something he shouldn't tell outsiders, but if it were Yuya…
He looked around and said in a low voice, "Let's talk somewhere else."
He led Yuya downstairs, with Conan following closely behind.
Kazami Yuya watched the three leave without stopping them, but instead took out his phone and sent a message.
The three of them found a secluded corner.
Wataru Takagi briefly recounted what had happened.
At the time of the explosion, the Ministry of Criminal Investigation, the Ministry of Public Security, and the Garrison Command were conducting a joint security patrol of the international conference hall. It just so happened that the Ministry of Public Security was on duty when the explosion occurred.
Yuya suddenly realized why he saw Amuro Tooru and Kazami Yuya was injured.
Takagi Wataru sighed: "Inspector Kazami was outside the building at the time and only suffered minor injuries, but the people inside the building..."
Yuya's expression darkened slightly: "I saw it on the news; it said someone died."
Takagi Wataru was somewhat downcast: "Yes, it's not nice to say it like this, but the fact that only the police were harmed and no ordinary people were not is already a stroke of luck amidst misfortune."
Yuya understood what Takagi Wataru meant: "If an explosion happened during the summit, I wonder how many people would be affected, and all the countries would be shaken, right?"
At the summit, people from all over the world were present. If the conference hall had exploded at that time, it's hard to imagine what would have happened next.
Takagi Wataru took a deep breath: "The Metropolitan Police Department, especially the Ministry of Public Security, is in complete chaos. Who could have imagined that an accident would happen before the summit?"
"An accident?" Yuya and Conan exclaimed in surprise at the same time.
Takagi Wataru hurriedly corrected him: "No, that's not what I meant. Based on the investigation at the scene, I initially thought it would be treated as an accident."
Yu was also a little confused: "But weren't Kogoro's fingerprints found at the scene?"
Takagi Wataru nodded: "That's right. It was because Mr. Kazami discovered the fingerprints that the possibility of the explosion being caused by someone suddenly increased, and the police began to investigate more thoroughly."
Kazami Yuya? Yuya pondered. No, he was just a low-ranking officer, probably put forward by Amuro Tooru as a spokesperson. After all, Amuro Tooru himself couldn't appear at police meetings or conduct a high-profile investigation.
So, was it Amuro Tooru's doing that made Kogoro Mouri a suspect?
Just then, Conan's phone rang; it was Ran Mouri calling.
On the other end of the phone, Ran Mouri's voice trembled with anxiety: "It's terrible! They're taking Dad away!"
Yuya and Conan exchanged a glance, then immediately said goodbye to Wataru Takagi and rushed back to the agency.
Inside the office, Kazami Yuya, holding a stack of documents, questioned Mouri Kogoro.
"These were found on your computer during your detention: the summit's daily schedule and the layout of the bombed international conference hall. How do you explain that?"
Kogoro Mouri was taken aback: "How is this possible?"
Ran Mouri hurriedly explained, "My dad is a complete computer illiterate, how could he store something like this on his computer!"
Kazami Yuya wouldn't listen to such a weak explanation, coldly saying, "You can explain these things at the police station!"
He was about to reach out and grab the person.
"What a joke!" Kogoro Mouri slapped his hand away and said dismissively, "Who wants to go to the police station with the police?"
Due to historical issues, a fragmented functional structure, and separate management systems, Japanese police and public security have always been wary of each other, with extremely low levels of trust.
Kogoro Mouri was once a police detective, and even though he had long since resigned to become a detective, he still didn't have a good impression of the public security bureau.
Kazami Yuya glanced at his hands, his eyes suddenly turning cold and hard: "You are obstructing the execution of official duties. You are hereby arrested in accordance with the law."
He then pulled out handcuffs.
Having been accused of this, Kogoro Mouri panicked a little: "Hey, I just waved your hand away, didn't I?"
Kazami Yu didn't listen to any explanations. He handcuffed Kogoro Mouri, glanced at his watch to check the time, and waved for his men to take him away.
"Let me go! Hey, let me go!" Kogoro Mouri struggled fiercely.
Kazami Yuya coldly warned, "Not cooperating will only increase your suspicion."
Kogoro Mouri had no choice but to behave himself.
"Wait!" Seeing that Kogoro Mouri was about to be taken away, Conan rushed forward to block his way. "If Uncle Kogoro is the culprit, then what was his motive for blowing up the international conference hall?"
Kogoro Mouri also shouted, "That's right! Why would I do something like that?"
Kazami Yuya glanced at Conan and said calmly, "We'll have to talk about that when we take the statement."
After saying that, he walked straight past Conan.
As he passed by Yuya, Yuya suddenly spoke up: "Was this all Mr. Amuro's instruction?"
Kazami Yuya glanced at Yuya subconsciously, and said calmly, "I don't understand what you're talking about. I'm just doing my job."
With that, he took Kogoro Mouri away.
Ran Mouri, looking anxious, and Conan, deep in thought, were left in the room.
Yu narrowed her eyes, turned around and went downstairs.
Kogoro Mouri was forced into the car, still loudly arguing, but no one listened to him. The car door closed, the engine started, and it sped away.
Yuya turned around and looked at the Polo Cafe.
Amuro Tooru was holding a dustpan and a broom, sweeping the fallen leaves at the doorway.
Yuya slowly asked, "Did you arrange all of this?"
Amuro Tooru paused, continued scanning, and said calmly without turning around, "I don't know what you're talking about."
Yuya continued, "If I'm not mistaken, this bombing should be a terrorist attack."
"But the on-site investigation results pointed to an accident."
"You didn't want the case to be closed so hastily, so you fabricated a criminal."
"With your abilities, forging a fingerprint and leaving evidence on a computer would be a piece of cake, wouldn't it?"
"But why involve Uncle Kogoro?"
You're such a disobedient disciple!
Yuya finished stating his speculation in one breath, then stared quietly at Amuro Tooru, waiting for his answer.
Amuro Tooru remained silent, quickly finished sweeping the fallen leaves, and then, seemingly unrelated to the question, said, "Without evidence, the police won't investigate this matter further."
Yuya's expression shifted. Was he implying that he should help with the investigation? He understood that Amuro Tooru couldn't show up because of his identity, but why go through all this trouble when he could just ask directly?
Sensing Yuya's silence, Amuro Tooru knew he had conveyed his thoughts to the other, so he said, "I'm sorry, but I also have things I'd risk my life to protect."
After saying that, he pushed open the door and walked into the coffee shop, disappearing behind the door.
