Toyama Ginshiro raised his eyes and glanced at Bourbon.

This was the first time he saw this blond young man, but for some reason

The other person seemed to have a different temperament that always attracted Toyama Ginshiro's attention.

Toyama Ginshiro never ignores his intuition. He believes that some things are inexplicable. Some senior police officers who have worked for many years can smell the unique smell of prisoners.

Bourbon gave Ginshiro Toyama the same feeling.

"Mr. Toyama, should we go to Kurosaki Ryuji's graveyard?"

Otaki Goro asked:

"The prisoner said there was a clue to the third bomb."

"No, someone has already gone."

"who?"

"Headmaster."

There were a few dead leaves covering the blue-black tombstone. It had just rained and the ground was still damp. Hattori Heizou bent down, picked up a plastic sunflower placed in front of the tombstone, and looked at it.

This is a cemetery where Kurosaki Ryuji was buried after his death.

"Commander, why did the prisoner put a sunflower here?"

A police officer asked strangely:

"Sunflowers don't seem to be flowers used to honor the dead."

“You don’t necessarily have to pay homage to the deceased with a specific bouquet.”

Hattori Heizou said in a deep voice:

"The deceased's favorite flowers can also be used as a memorial to express condolences and remembrance of the deceased."

"Although I don't know if Kurosaki Ryuji's favorite flower was a sunflower, but there must be a reason why the prisoner put it here. What's going on with Minister Toyama?"

"It's too late."

The police department replied:

"The prisoner left immediately after planting the bomb. Minister Toyama failed to catch him."

"Um."

Hattori Heizou's face was expressionless, making it impossible to tell what he was thinking in his heart:

"Call Kurosaki Ryuji over."

The police department left in response and soon returned with an old man with snow-white hair and wearing gray-green worker's clothing.

Seeing the sunflower in Hattori Hirazura's hand, a trace of sadness flashed in the old man's eyes, but he didn't say anything.

"Kurosaki Ryuji, if you have any grudges, feel free to come at me. Don't hurt the general public. What happened back then has nothing to do with them."

Hattori Heizou said without looking back.

"What is the chief talking about?"

The old man smiled and shook his head:

"I don't understand."

"Ten years ago, I personally arrested your brother and sent him to prison. This is the law. People who make mistakes should be punished."

Under the cold and profound gaze of the old man, Hattori Heiji put the sunflower back in front of the tombstone and said:

"I say this just to tell you that I will not regret the decision I made 10 years ago. You spent all your efforts planning bombings one after another, but the final result is nothing."

After saying that, Hattori Heizou ignored the old man, got in the car, and went straight to the Expo Memorial Park.

"sunflower?"

In the hall of the headquarters, Hattori Heiji saw the news from his father. There was only one picture. In the picture, a golden sunflower was lying quietly in front of the tombstone:

"What is the flower language of sunflowers?"

"Silent love."

Conan said:

"In addition, the sunflower also represents faith, brilliance, pride, loyalty and love, indicating that you must be brave to pursue the happiness you want."

"It has nothing to do with bombs at all!"

"But it has something to do with the Shinkansen Railway."

Sakaki frowned and said:

“When I traveled to Osaka last time, I saw a place called Expo Commemorative Park, where a sunflower festival is held every year.”

"you mean"

Mouri Kogoro asked:

"The prisoner's target is the Expo Memorial Park?"

“It could also be Senri-Chuo Station in front of Expo Commemorative Park, because you can take the subway from Shin-Osaka Station to Senri-Chuo Station and arrive at Expo Commemorative Park.”

"No, that's not right!"

His eyes lit up, Hattori Heiji seemed to have thought of something:

"You only know one but not the other!"

“The Expo Memorial Park was built on the site of the World Exposition. There is a symbolic building inside called the Tower of the Sun!”

"If the sunflower left by the prisoner in front of the tombstone represents a place name, it is most likely referring to the Tower of the Sun!"

As a know-it-all about Osaka, what Hattori Heiji said is quite credible. Since he said there is a Tower of the Sun in Expo Park, there must be one.

The habit of sunflowers is to chase the sun, and there happens to be a sunflower garden in the Expo Commemorative Park. Not only that, there is also a building called the Sun Tower. After thinking about it,

The location where the third bomb was placed was probably the Tower of the Sun.

After finding the target, everyone no longer hesitated, and together with Toyama Ginshiro, drove to the Expo Memorial Park. When they arrived here, they happened to see Hattori Hirzo's car parked at the entrance of the park.

At the same time, Sakaki and others also met the suspect Kurosaki Ryuji.

Kurosaki Ryuji and his three brothers were once employees of Shin-Osaka Station. After the bombing, Kurosaki Ryuji was imprisoned, but his three brothers stayed and became employees of the JR Group. employees, continue to work for Shin-Osaka Station.

This bomb case is related to Kurosaki Ryuji, so his three brothers are bound to be involved.

but

If Ryuji Kurosaki was captured by the police at Osaka Station, who sent the bomb to the headquarters building?

"It seems there is more than one culprit."

Sakaki thought about it briefly and came up with the most likely answer based on the current situation:

"This case is composed of many links, such as the source of the bomb, where the kidnapped little daughter is now, who prepared the suitcase with the bomb in advance, the bomb sent to the headquarters building, and the interior of the Expo Memorial Park "Tower of the Sun bomb, if any link is missing, the plan will not be implemented smoothly. Similarly, if the police cannot crack the criminal's modus operandi and find all the evidence, they will not be able to convict Kurosaki Ryuji."

In previous cases, the process of murder weapon, plan, motive, and implementation was usually completed by the prisoner alone. As long as one of the links can be cracked, it is basically possible to follow the clues and catch the prisoner's feet in one fell swoop.

But this time the situation was different. Although Kurosaki Ryuji was captured by the police at Shin-Osaka Station, Hattori Hirzo had no evidence of conviction because Kurosaki Ryuji had no ability to make a bomb, and it was impossible for him to use the second bomb after being captured. Send it to the headquarters building.

The most important thing is

The place where the little girl was kidnapped was Tokyo, and Ryuji Kurosaki had never left Osaka in the past year. How could he kidnap her?

This is the most troublesome part.

There is a close connection between the interlocking cases. Each link provides a perfect alibi for the other links. It is useless to catch only one person. All the prisoners must be caught. Only then can the case be successfully solved!
