Chapter 3989 Pressure Cooker Bomb

"Why is this like this..." Yoshimizu Yoshiki felt unbelievable, "It means that the police want to prosecute Mr. Maori without pleading guilty and without a criminal motive?"

"That's right," Conan nodded to Yokomizu Yokohiko, his eyes heavy and lost. "And my aunt said that the evidence is sufficient now, and there was no violation during the police investigation. If there are no new discoveries, there is not much room for defense for the lawyer."

Chi Feichi suddenly felt that the famous detective was pitiful now, so he raised his hand and pressed it on Conan's head to comfort him, "Don't cry with a sad face. If the teacher hasn't done it, there will definitely be new discoveries."

Conan felt the weight and temperature of Chi Feichi's palm above his head. He knew that Chi Feichi wanted to comfort him, but a hint of grievance surged in his heart.

﹏

This incident was really complicated, and he still has no idea...

But Uncle Kogoro is about to be sent for inspection, and he really doesn’t have much time...

Chi Feichi: "..."

(￣￣”)

Why does Conan look even more pitiful?

The next second, Chi Feichi retreated his hand and tried to calm Conan down. "It's only 30 hours since the explosion happened. Now we have confirmed that this was an explosion caused by gas. We know that the gas valve has a remote login record. In fact, we have already mastered a lot of clues. Even if the prosecution is ready to prosecute the teacher tomorrow, from deciding to determining the evidence, to the beginning of the trial, we have at least two 30 hours to conduct in-depth investigations, a total of 60 hours. As long as we find any clue that can prove that the teacher is not necessarily a criminal, the prosecution will not be able to successfully prosecute and buy us more time. I don't think it's very difficult."

When Conan heard Chi Feichi say this, he was indeed much calmer.

He had just thought before that, "Uncle was arrested" and "Uncle was going to be sent for inspection". He almost forgot that now it has only been 30 hours since the explosion...

In these 30 hours, so many things can happen, which is enough for the police to find so many clues. Next, they will have at least 60 hours to investigate. Even if the police determine that Uncle Kogoro is the murderer and do not plan to continue investigating, he will use 60 hours to investigate, but there is no reason why he can't find any clues.

Brother Chi thought it was not very difficult, and he also felt that it didn't seem that difficult for him...

Miyuan Yingzi put the brewed tea on the coffee table and whispered, "Miss Yueshui, I've brewed the black tea."

Yoshimizuki calmed down and said hello, "Doctor, Xiao Ai, Conan, let's sit down and have a cup of tea first. We can discuss Mr. Maori's affairs slowly."

Dr. Agasa, Ai Haibara, and Conan did not refuse and sat down on the sofa in the lounge area.

Yueshui Qiqiu did not rush to sit down and tied the bed curtain with a rope to facilitate Chi Feichi to see the rest area.

Ai Haibara picked up the cup, took a sip of tea, and told Chi Feichi and Yokomi Shiraki about the latest investigation progress. "The news Edogawa got from Officer Shirato is that the source of the explosion in the International Conference Hall is in the kitchen. This morning, the doctor used a drone to take photos over the ruins. In the ruins of the kitchen location of the venue, we found some strange fragments scattered everywhere. They just made pieces and restore the fragments and compared them online. It seemed that it was just an ITO pressure cooker."

Chi Feichi decided to give Conan some reminder, pretending to be thinking, "Is the pressure cooker bomb..."

"Pressure cooker bomb?" Conan was indeed attracted by Chi Feichi's words, "Brother Chi, can pressure cookers also be used as bombs?"

"Two years ago...some time ago..." Chi Feichi was really unsure when the incident happened. He was silent for a moment and gave up his accurate description of time. "In short, before that, a terrorist attack on pressure cooker explosion occurred in Boston, killing three people and injuring hundreds..."

Conan's brain captured keywords such as 'terrorist attack' and 'pressure cooker explosion'. He felt that the incident might be related to this incident, so he quickly asked, "What is that pressure cooker bomb like? Will it be related to this incident?"

"In that incident, the prisoner put some explosives and air guns into a pressure cooker, used the pressure cooker to pressurize and detonate regularly, causing a very destructive explosion," Chi Feichi did not keep it in a silence and directly answered Conan's question. "If you want to know the details of that incident, you can check it online. However, the explosion in the International Conference Hall was definitely not done by the same group, because a few days after the incident, federal investigative agents and police identified two suspects. One of them was shot dead while fighting fire with the police, and the other went to the hospital after being injured and was quickly arrested by the police."

"And in the ruins of the explosion of the International Conference Hall, we did not find traces of explosives burning near the fragments of the pressure cooker," Haibara Ai recalled. "There are no traces of explosives on the fragments of the pressure cooker. It seems that it is not like imitating the crime..."

Seeing that the clue seemed to be interrupted, Conan sighed softly, not too frustrated.

Boston Pressure Cooker Explosion...

Even if this is not a serial crime or a copycat, it at least provides him with an idea: the pressure cooker cannot become the source of explosion.

"If the pressure cooker is filled with gas, there may be no explosives at all," Chi Feichi analyzed. "As long as the pressure inside the pressure cooker is too high, causing a malfunction or explosion, and igniting the gas through subtle sparks or arcs, it can cause a larger gas explosion, and the pressure cooker can also be timed, so that the prisoner can set the explosion time of the pressure cooker in advance and create a certificate of absence for himself."

"That's right..." Conan frowned and thought, "Although the source of the explosion was a pressure cooker, it cannot prove that Uncle Kogoro is innocent, but if the prisoner really did this, perhaps we can make some predictions about the prisoner's identity and behavior."

"I have no clue about the identity of the prisoner at the moment," Chi Feichi said. "Because ITO appliances can be connected through the Internet, prisoners can illegally log in to the gas valve, and perhaps use some means to remotely operate the pressure cooker."

Dr. Agasa thought seriously, "If this is the case, should we investigate the connection record of the pressure cooker? Uh, but the pressure cooker has been fried to pieces!"

"Will there be records in Umbrella's regulatory system for smart appliances?"

"I don't know much..."

...

In an apartment near the hospital.

"Did the pressure cooker cause a gas explosion..."

Toru Amuro sat alone at the table, monitoring the conversation in the ward through Conan's mobile phone, while typing quickly on the computer, sorting out the clues mentioned by everyone in the ward, and then finding a new investigation direction from it, sending emails to his subordinates, and issuing new investigation instructions.

This time Conan went to the hospital to visit the consultant, and it seemed that he had gained a lot.

Now that the consultant has known all the clues at present, he has given his own opinions on the existing clues, he has no need to go to the consultant to discuss the case. However, when there are new clues and he is not clear about it, perhaps he can also talk to the consultant.
