“Mr. Granburch, aren’t you my examiner? Why are you carrying tools too?” When Kevin drove to pick up Chu Ming, he found that Chu Ming was also carrying a violin case on his back and was a little confused.
“Just in case. After all, I’m riding in the same car with the candidates, so don’t I have to take some protection?” Chu Ming did not sit in the passenger seat. Instead, he opened the back door and got in.
The express train to Tokyo will slow down when approaching Asakusa Station, and this deceleration will occur when it is on the railway bridge, so sniping is best done on the bridge directly to the side of the railway bridge.
Kevin calculated the time accurately and parked his car in the outermost lane in the middle of the Komagata Bridge, regardless of the cars behind him honking their horns. There were so many lanes next to him, so what was wrong with him stopping for a while.
He took out his sniper rifle and aimed it at the express line which had been slowing down very slowly. He slowly pointed the muzzle at Bill who was sitting in his seat with his head down and lost in thought. Chu Ming at the side also took out his sniper rifle.
However, unlike Kevin, he did not aim at the express line, but used the sniper scope as a telescope, looking around for Conan.
As he expected, before he had even started looking, he spotted two figures, one big and one small, riding a motorcycle and skateboarding on the opposite Azuma Bridge.
When Kevin had already seen the target and was gradually putting his finger on the trigger, Conan suddenly swung the skateboard under his feet forward, and at the same time threw the football belt that had been prepared in his hand towards the lamppost above. The belt hung on the street lamp and swayed twice. Because Conan pressed the button in advance, the rubber football squeezed out instantly and covered the entire road.
“Huh? What happened?” Kevin found that the bullet he shot did not hit Bill’s head, but instead hit a skateboard that flew from nowhere. Moreover, all the sniping directions in front of him were blocked by the huge football. He frowned immediately.
He adjusted his position, looked around, and found the culprit who caused all this nearby. This person looked very familiar to him. He was the one who chased him the most closely when he shot Fujinami Hiroaki and was escaping.
At this time, Conan was standing in front of the football, waving the red LED light on his detective badge, trying to attract the attention of Bill, who was immersed in his own thoughts, with the faint red light in broad daylight, without paying any attention to what was happening behind him.
Chu Ming didn’t know what he was thinking. Did he think the murderer this time was just like the idiots before and didn’t kill children? Or did he think the rubber football of the doctor was bulletproof?
In order to seek revenge, Kevin was determined to kill even his mentor and friend, let alone a little devil who had been getting in his way.
So when Kevin adjusted the position of the gun and blew up the huge football, while opening the reflex sight and the red dot gradually moved towards the back of Conan’s head, Chu Ming was not surprised at all.
Chu Ming’s gun was pointed at Conan. Seeing Kevin seemed ready to attack Conan, he blinked and his interest suddenly became high.
Shuichi Akai was able to fall from a height of 5,000 meters without any protection and only broke one hand. So what miracle would happen if Conan was shot in the head?
Chu Ming stared at Conan on the opposite bridge without blinking, but just as Kevin was about to take action, Chu Ming saw Sera rushing over on a bicycle from the other side and immediately frowned.
Tsk, is it true that there is always someone to rescue the protagonist at the critical moment?
That won’t work.
Chu Ming curled up a wicked smile, pointed the gun at Shiliang’s car, and then fired.
With a slight sound, Sera’s motorcycle, which she had originally lowered with the accelerator turned to the bottom, suddenly seemed to be hit by something and suddenly deviated to the side in the middle of the road. She fell off the bike, rolled twice on the ground, hit her head heavily on the side of the road, and fainted.
As for her motorcycle, after sliding on the ground for a while, it crashed straight into Conan, pushing Conan, who was half leaning over the railing trying to attract Bill’s attention, into the river, and then exploded violently.
Kevin’s bullet arrived at the same time and hit the railing.
Chu Ming looked at this series of events and sighed. If he hadn’t been holding a gun in his hand, he would have applauded Conan.
Okay, okay, that’s all fine.
Although he missed, the person who was in the way was gone. Kevin remembered what he should do at the first moment and immediately turned the gun around and aimed it at Bill on the express line again.
Kill with one shot.
He opened the car door slightly, placed the prepared shell and the dice showing 5 on the side of the bridge, then stepped on the accelerator and drove away. Then he dropped Chu Ming off at a hidden intersection.
After seeing Kevin’s car driving away, Chu Ming raised his hand and put the sniper rifle he was carrying into the system backpack. Kevin’s next action would have to wait for another day, and he had nothing to do now. But after all, Kevin had not officially joined the organization yet, and he could not be allowed to know about the relevant bases and safe houses, so Chu Ming asked Kevin to drop him off a few intersections away.
Just as he was strolling slowly along the alley and preparing to find a noodle restaurant to eat, he received a call from Xiaolan, saying that the police had received a report from a passerby that Conan and Sera had suffered an unknown attack. Sera was found fainted on the side of the road, and Conan fell into the Sumida River. Fortunately, he fell on a ship passing under the bridge. He only had some scratches on his body and was not in any danger of life.
