Chapter 404 Only Routine Wins Hearts
Jodie noticed others were looking at her. After snatching the gun from the robber, she put on a lively smile again and laughed, "Oh～ Operation successful! But Driver, you're going to drive the Car onto the Guardrail!"
"Huh? Ah!" The Driver had been too busy looking behind him. When he turned his head to look at the road, he realized...
The Car was really about to crash into the Guardrail!
The passengers in the Car looked ahead, their faces instantly turning pale.
"Screech—"
The Bus made a sharp turn, and the Rear of the bus swung out directly.
The passengers on the Car were almost thrown out of their Seats.
Chi Feichei squatted down, pulled Conan to his side, grabbed the Railing tightly with both hands, and encircled Conan in the middle.
Without Seats in between, with this small body, a swing could probably send Conan flying to the windshield.
As for Haibara Ai and the other Children...
Too far away, even if he ran over now, he would fall.
"Protect the Bomb!" Conan shrank into Chi Feichei's arms, poked his head out and shouted, "Everyone grab the Railing around you! Quick!"
Ayumi, Mitsuhiko, and Genta, the three Children, and Doctor Agasa quickly prostrated on the Ground, their feet wedged between the Seats, and their hands tightly hugged the Ski bag containing the Bomb, stabilizing the Bomb inside.
In the Rear, Akai Shuichi had to move. He squatted down between the last row of Seats to help stabilize the Bomb, to prevent the Bomb from exploding due to the impact.
If that happened, even if the Car didn't rush out of the Guardrail, this explosion would kill everyone in the Car!
After Belmode stabilized herself, she looked at Conan immediately and breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that Conan was being protected by Chi Feichei.
The Bus swerved around on the Road and 'bang' crashed into the Cliff on the side of the Road, finally stopping.
The passengers in the Car then helped themselves up by holding onto the Railing, and let out a long sigh of relief.
"Phew..."
They didn't die at the hands of the robber, but they almost died at the hands of the Driver who turned his head to watch the excitement. Scary...
Chi Feichei was also speechless.
This Driver almost achieved a new achievement.
Why did two Silver Bullet die together? Two important Core Member of the Black Organization actually died in a Car Accident? The Organization traitor was blown into pieces? The remains of a suspected Female FBI agent were found at the Crime Scene? Why did Japanese Public Security suddenly start a Secret Investigation Action? Why did Tokyo's high Crime Rate suddenly drop overnight? Who else was on the Car? Is this the annihilation of humanity or the depravity of morality? Is it the despair of the Bus robber choosing to perish together, or a premeditated Murder by others? Please Follow Gin into the first episode of 'Post-Incident Mystery Scene Investigation'...
"S-Sorry..." The Driver was also frightened, wiping the Cold sweat from his forehead.
"Ahhhhhhh!" The Female robber who had tipped them off earlier looked at the Watch on her hand that had been bumped, and screamed in panic, scrambling towards the Car Door, "The Bomb is activated! It will explode within a minute, open the Door quickly!"
The faces of the other people in the Car, who had just calmed down, changed again.
The Driver hurriedly pressed the Door opening button on the Control Panel, but pressing it several times failed to open the Door. "The Car Door can't be opened! I'm afraid the impact just now broke the Car Door opening device!"
Some passengers had already disregarded their earlier fear-induced leg weakness and ran to the Car Door. Hearing this, they fell into despair again.
"Death God is here," Chi Feichei murmured softly, putting Conan down.
Conan looked up at Chi Feichei's calm Face speechlessly, and without delay, ran to the Car Door and shouted, "Everyone get out of the way!"
Perhaps because of Conan's previous Performance, or perhaps because the Famous Detective who became serious at this moment was very intimidating, the people blocking the Car Door quickly stepped aside.
A Soccer Ball popped out of Conan's Belt. At the same time, he squatted down, dialed the Knob on his Shoe, got up, aimed at the Soccer Ball, and kicked it out.
Outside the Bus, Sato Miwako braked the Car to a stop, got out of the Car in a hurry, and while reporting the Situation, stepped forward to check the Situation, "Inspector Megure, the Bus seemed to suddenly lose control just now... I don't know... Yes! I'm about to..."
"Bang—!"
A Soccer Ball smashed the Car Door away, sending the Car Door flying like Lightning towards the Cliff outside the other side of the Guardrail.
Sato Miwako froze, the Hair in front of her forehead swaying in the strong Wind.
"Sato?" On the other end of the Communication, Inspector Megure shouted, "Sato! What happened?"
"Uh..." Sato Miwako was just about to answer when she saw passengers pouring out of the Car like crazy.
"Hurry!"
"The Bomb is going to explode!"
"Run away!"
Doctor Agasa didn't squeeze with the passengers who panicked at the beginning, but he didn't delay either, taking the Children off the Car.
Chi Feichei threw the robber who had been 'duang' knocked unconscious out of the Car, and found that Haibara Ai hadn't followed, frowned, and turned back.
Sato Miwako saw Conan and hurriedly asked, "Conan, what happened?"
"The Bomb on the Bus will explode in less than 20 seconds!" Conan said anxiously.
Sato Miwako was startled and quickly ran towards the Tunnel, while turning her Head and saying, "I'll block the Cars coming from the Tunnel side, Officer Chiba, you are responsible for the opposite Direction! Others assist passengers in moving away from the Bus!"
Ayumi, who had run out for a while, suddenly looked around, "Huh? Where's Haibara?"
Mitsuhiko was stunned, "Brother Chi is also not here!"
Conan stopped and looked around. Sure enough, he didn't find those two people. He quickly turned his Head and ran towards the Bus.
Those two wouldn't still be on the Car, would they?!
Inside the Bus, Haibara Ai still sat in her Seat with her Head lowered, listening to the Footsteps passing by her side, and the noise around her gradually fading into silence.
Even if she was rescued, she would still have to meet that person when taking a Written Statement later. If she could disappear, the connection point with the Organization could also disappear together...
Actually, she wasn't very depressed, a little reluctant to leave this not-bad World, but...
A Shadow fell in front of her.
"Feeling unwell?"
The calm male voice was very familiar.
Haibara Ai looked up in surprise, looking at Chi Feichei who was standing beside the Seat, bending over to look at her.
Conan, who had just run onto the Car, staggered and almost fell flat on his face.
Big Brother, it's about to explode, is now the Time to say this?
"It's going to explode, get out of the Car quickly," Chi Feichei didn't wait for Haibara Ai to answer, took Hissashi out, handed it to Haibara Ai, picked up Haibara Ai with his left Hand, turned around and ran out, and conveniently picked up Conan who was running halfway towards this side, and put his right Arm around him, "Protect Hissashi."
If Hissashi was on him, it might be crushed into a pancake later. It would be safer to let Haibara Ai protect it in her arms.
3...
2...
Chi Feichei ran to the Car Door, took the last step out, flipped over, and turned the two Children upwards.
1...
"Boom!"
The Bus was instantly engulfed in Fire, and scorching Flames rushed around wildly.
Chi Feichei used his Hand to protect the Heads of the two Children, with his back to the Ground, and slid out of the explosion range.
Heavens are really routine, even the operations of sudden Car braking and Car Door not opening can be done, just to let Belmode grasp the Clue of 'what equipment Conan has'.
Then he would just go with the Routine.
In fact, if he went back and ran with Haibara Ai and Conan immediately, there was an 80% or more chance that they could escape the explosion unharmed.
But delaying a bit, getting slightly injured is also good, it can release a piece of Information to Belmode:
I am protecting this Little Red Riding Hood Younger Sister and Conan, everyone can talk, you don't chase Little Red Riding Hood Younger Sister, and I won't stare at Conan to investigate, let's protect them together!
His original Plan was: to put pressure on Belmode, to make Belmode feel that after he discovered Kudo Shinichi, he would not hesitate to attack Kudo Shinichi, making Belmode nervous and uneasy, and then, to release a little Information to Belmode, showing that he has a good Relationship with Conan, making Belmode feel that there is still hope for a turnaround, and then throw out the fact that he also has a good Relationship with Haibara Ai, so that Belmode believes that she has grasped his 'Psychological Flaw', to reach the Transaction Condition, and finally wait for Belmode to come to him and talk to him about jointly protecting people.
Of course, this is the most ideal Outcome.
A smart Woman's Mentality is difficult to control, especially a smart Woman like Belmode. Sometimes her brain circuits are very strange. He really doesn't have much certainty, just trying his best to try.
If it works, this time will be almost done. If it doesn't work...
At least let Belmode discover that it is also a bit beneficial for him to stay by Conan's side, don't always think about tricking him, thinking about tricking him away, so that he can save some worry.
Since ancient times, deep affection cannot be retained, only Routine wins hearts.
This time is indeed a rare Opportunity.
He can calculate the Time and Speed well, so that the two Kids won't be injured, and control his own Injury to be a Scratch that looks a bit serious, but will scab and fall off in a day or two. The Risk is not high.
The only thing to Consider is Hissashi.
Because they are going to fall to the Ground suddenly, if Hissashi is on him, even if the two Children are on top, just the weight of the Children and the impact force at the moment when the three people land is enough to flatten Hissashi, but it is also easy to solve. Hissashi can be protected in Haibara Ai's arms, and will not bear the impact.
Of course, if the Bomb explodes in advance, then he will admit that he is unlucky, and peacefully go to the Yellow Springs with Haibara Ai and Conan.
But with Conan here, he really doesn't believe that Heavens will let the Bomb explode in advance. It is estimated that if they can't run out, the Bomb will suddenly malfunction. Stop skipping and delayed explosion are both possible.
...
Beside the burning Bus, Wataru Takagi had just arrived and parked the Car. He saw Chi Feichei hugging two Kids and falling out of the Bus, and hurriedly got out of the Car and ran forward, "Mr. Chi?"
On the other side, Doctor Agasa and the three Children also rushed over.
Chi Feichei had already sat up, helped Conan and Haibara Ai up, let go of his hands, and roughly checked.
Hissashi, Haibara Ai, and Conan were not injured. He had some Injuries on his Arm and back, broken skin, not serious... Perfect calculation.
Conan hurriedly looked up, saw Chi Feichei's calm Face, and was stunned for a moment, not knowing what to say for a while.
Is this Fellow Chi a Robot? Doesn't even have Emotion like Fear, urgency, or relief?
"I..." Haibara Ai was still wearing a Hat, blocking her Hair and most of her Face. She looked up at Chi Feichei, not knowing what to say, and then looked down at Hissashi who was poking his Head out of her arms, "Hissashi is fine."
"Were you feeling unwell before?" Chi Feichei asked the previous question again, as a way to find an excuse for Haibara Ai not to take a Written Statement.
"Yes!" Haibara Ai nodded. She couldn't say that she suddenly wanted to give up Survival, feeling guilty, she didn't dare to look up at Chi Feichei, "A little Dizziness..."
"Then please trouble Police Officer Takagi to send us to the Hospital," Chi Feichei got up and handed Haibara Ai to Wataru Takagi who had run up to him, "No need to take a Written Statement, right?"
Not needing to take a Written Statement was also one of the Benefits of this calculation.
Wataru Takagi nodded blankly, "Yes... Okay."
At this Time, he was still thinking about not taking a Written Statement. Could it be that their Written Statement left a big Psychological Trauma on Mr. Chi?
Clearly, his Psychological Trauma is even bigger. Every Time he sees Chi Feichei's Written Statement, he has a headache, worrying that that kind of brief summary will be required by the higher-ups to be redone...
No, wait, what's important now doesn't seem to be the Written Statement Problem, what's important is to go to the Hospital quickly!
