Chapter 263 Kogorō saves Conan (Ch 263)

After Ran was rescued, Kogoro received a call from Dr. Agasa and found out that Conan was in trouble because the doctor asked if Conan was with him, and Kogoro hadn’t seen Conan since Teiji Moriya was arrested.

Originally, Kogoro was also concerned about Conan’s whereabouts, but when Xiaolan’s matter got in the way, how could he care about Conan? My own daughter is in danger, who cares about you, a little bastard?

Now that Xiaolan is out of danger, Kogoro has time to worry about Conan.

After hanging up the phone with the doctor, Kogoro stood in the hospital corridor, frowning and muttering to himself, “At that time, he called Megure in the voice of Kudo Shinichi and exposed the crimes of Moritani Teiji. Megure asked Moritani where else he had installed the bomb, and Moritani said that he had given a hint… and after that, Conan disappeared.”

If my guess is correct, Conan must have figured out Teiji Moriya’s code, so he went to find the bomb alone. After all, Teiji Moriya said he had an accomplice, and if Kudo Shinichi didn’t go alone, the accomplice would have directly detonated the bomb, so Shinichi had to go alone.

“But hasn’t the bomb been found? Could there be bombs somewhere else besides the Beika City Building?” Kogoro’s heart tightened.

Since Xiaolan was involved in the explosion of the Beika City Building, Kogoro and the police subconsciously thought that the code was referring to this place, but now it seems wrong… Conan did not appear nearby.

Could it be that the code refers to some other place? But Kogoro still couldn’t figure out what Moriya Teiji meant by that hint.

What does it mean, “You didn’t expect it to be me, sir?”

While Kogoro was thinking hard, he suddenly received a phone call. A weak voice came from the other end, “Team leader, I hope I didn’t disturb you in the middle of the night?” The person who called him was Sawabe, who had driven with him to follow Gin before.

“No, I’m not asleep yet.” Kogoro replied.

“Oh, I’m so disappointed.”

“Stop talking nonsense, what’s the matter?” Kogoro asked unhappily.

Sawabe could tell that Kogoro was in a bad mood, so he stopped talking glibly and said, “I’ve already found out about the background of Hanai Akiko, the person you asked me to investigate. Her real name is Kimikado Yukiko, and her father’s name is Kimikado Masao. Four years ago…”

Kogoro didn’t really want to hear this at the moment, but he still listened patiently, “Okay, I understand. Thank you, Sawabe.”

“You’re welcome. Just don’t bother me anymore in the future.”

“No, I really need to trouble you with something.” Kogoro suddenly thought of the code. Why not let Sawabe try it? Although Kogoro is Sawabe’s boss, he does not think that Sawabe is inferior to himself.

After all, to be honest, this guy was much more famous than me back then.

“Hey…what’s the matter? Tell me.” Sawabe was helpless.

“There is a bomber who doesn’t know where to plant the bomb. The only clue he gave us was one sentence: ‘You didn’t expect it was me, sir.’ What does this sentence mean?” Kogoro asked.

Sawabe thought for a moment and said, “This seems to be what Holmes said to Watson, right? It was in the “Vacant House” case. By the way, the location of the vacant house case is 427 Park Road. But there is only Park Town in Tokyo, and there is no 427. You can go to the number over there to have a look.”

Kogoro suddenly realized!

Sherlock Holmes’ lines? No wonder I couldn’t figure it out no matter how hard I tried, but that guy understood the answer in an instant. Fortunately, I asked Zebu, otherwise I might not have figured it out until dawn.

“You are really worthy of being the shadow planner Ye Caisan! Just in case, come with me.” Kogoro hung up the phone and hurriedly left the hospital.

…

Following Sawabe’s instructions, Kogoro came to 4-me-27, Koen-cho. Sawabe drove him there, and the first thing Sawabe said when he saw him was: “Team leader, I haven’t called you by that name for many years.”

“Sorry, I just think the name Shadow Planner is cool.” Kogoro apologized to him.

“Yeah, I used to think it was cool. But after I got past the age of Chuunibyou, I just felt awkward…”

“Did you bring the guy?”

“Take it.” Sawabe took a pistol himself and handed the other one to Kogoro.

The door of No. 27 was not locked, but ajar. The two of them sneaked in carefully. It was dark inside, empty, and the door of one room was closed. Kogoro walked up and gently turned the doorknob to open the door, then quickly jumped out and pointed a gun at the inside, “Don’t move!” (To read the exciting novels, go to Faloo Novel Network!)

When I shone the flashlight into the room, I found that there was no one inside. There was no cover, so I could see everything clearly.

No, to be precise, there was no one standing, but there was a little child lying on the ground.

“Conan?” Kogoro recognized him at the first sight.

Conan? Zebe was very curious. Isn’t this the child who was staying at the team leader’s house? Why is he in a place like this?

Kogoro wanted to go in, but suddenly felt dizzy. “Poison gas? Sawabe, you help me guard it.” Kogoro took a deep breath, then rushed in, holding his breath, picked up Conan and ran out quickly. Sawabe stood guard at the door with a gun in his hand, looking around vigilantly to prevent anyone from taking the opportunity to attack. []

However, the attack did not happen until Kogoro brought Conan out.

“It doesn’t seem to be poison gas, just carbon dioxide.” Sawabe reminded.

Kogoro also realized that although he had just inhaled the air in the room, it was only a short period of hypoxia, and he recovered instantly after inhaling fresh air. It seems that it is indeed not a real poisonous gas. Although carbon dioxide itself is not toxic, a high concentration can also cause people to die from lack of oxygen.

Not finding the so-called accomplice, Kogoro held Conan and left No. 27 with Sawabe. Sawabe looked at Conan in Kogoro’s arms, as if he suddenly understood, “Could this kid have cracked the code and run here by himself?”

Little (good money) Wulang said nothing.

There was a gleam in Sawabe’s dead fish eyes, and it was unknown what he was thinking.

“Team leader, do you want to take this child to the hospital?”

“No.” Kogoro didn’t want to take Conan to the hospital himself. He didn’t even want Conan to know that he saved him, so Kogoro said, “Just leave him on the side of the road, and someone will come to find him soon.”

After they put Conan on the roadside, they sat in the car and waited. Just as Kogoro said, a yellow Beetle drove over not long after. Seeing the car coming, Kogoro took Sawabe away from the scene.

Zebe found it strange that after the child was rescued, the team leader did not contact anyone. How could someone find this place so quickly?

Sawabe doesn’t know, but Kogoro does. Dr. Agasa is looking for Conan everywhere, and Conan has a detective badge, which Dr. Agasa can use to locate him.
