She knew that the reason why this pretentious guy was asking so many questions was that he actually suspected whether she had any relationship with those terrorists.
After all, he suddenly appeared there with a grenade at that time, so it was normal for this guy to have doubts.
"Ahaha..." Upon hearing this, Kuroba Kaito lowered his head to glance at the expression on Huihara Ai's face and said meaningfully: "It seems that our little sister seems to have a lot of secrets..."
When he was at the top of the Central Radio Tower, he had already noticed that the hostages who had been taken to Kitaye by the terrorists seemed to have been rescued by the police and were running towards the first floor in groups.
However, Haibara Ai did not follow the crowd to the first floor, but went to the rooftop alone. Although it can be seen from the result that she did help him a lot, this did not affect Kuroba Kaito's suspicion of her motives for such an action.
He would not look down on Haibara Ai just because she looks like a child.
After all, Kuroba Kaito had seen a "child" who was about the same age as Haibara Ai, but was extremely smart...
"What's the matter? Mr. Kaito, do you want to get to the bottom of girls' secrets?" Haibara Ai looked up at him and asked with a smile.
"No, I have already asked everything I wanted to ask. As for the rest...it has nothing to do with a thief like me.
Then, let me find a suitable place to put our little sister down."
A little earlier in time, in the lobby on the first floor of Beiye, with the cooperation of the SWAT team outside the building, the terrorists in the lobby were quickly cleared out.
"Eight, nine, ten... Officer Sato, there are twelve bodies in total, and three prisoners. I have already treated their wounds."
After counting the bodies of the terrorists in the hall, a special police officer hurried forward and gave instructions to Shirakawa Seiho, who was disguised as Sato Miwako.
"But the leader Buchuan mentioned by these terrorists is not among them."
"Really? When you were outside before, did you see anyone leaving the building?" Bai Heqing took off his bulletproof vest and asked.
"No, but...someone did come in." the SWAT team member replied.
"Hmm? What does he look like?"
"He is a strong, bald man. He entered the North Leaf Building carrying a long box on his back. According to our previous inquiries, he seems to be one of the leaders of these terrorists. His name is Toriyama, and he was supposed to be in the West Leaf Building..."
"Toriyama? Xiye... Then why did he come to Beiye?" Stretching, he turned and walked towards the main entrance of the hall. Shirakawa Qing keenly noticed the abnormality.
"Those terrorists don't seem to know this either. It is said that it was Fukawa who was in charge of Kitayo who called Toriyama over. As for why he was called over, they don't know..."
"Come to think of it, I didn't see these two people when I was up there before..."
The two of them had already walked outside the building. Bai Heqing raised his hand to touch his chin and lowered his head in thought.
According to the information Jing had obtained before, Toriyama should have chosen to escape with that Fukawa, so he deliberately left the West Leaf that he was in charge of and came to the North Leaf Building...
[But why did they come to Beiye Building? And the SWAT team members ambushed outside did not see the two of them leave Beiye Building...]
what……
Suddenly thinking of something, Bai Heqing raised his head and looked towards the roof of Beiye's building.
“So it was from the sky?”
"Eh? Officer Sato, have you thought of something?" The SWAT team member looked up in the direction he was looking, then raised his hand and touched his head in confusion.
"There is probably a helicopter parked on the roof of Beiye. These two people are probably planning to use this helicopter to escape."
Realizing this, Shirakawa Qing immediately ordered through the headset: "Second team, listen up. The terrorist leader is trying to escape by helicopter. Take your anti-material sniper rifles immediately and take the Beiye elevator to the top floor. Move quickly and shoot them down before they completely escape."
"Yes!" The response from other SWAT team members immediately came through the headset.
【Um? 】
At this moment, Bai Heqing suddenly noticed from the corner of his eye that there seemed to be a big white bird flying past in a corner of the sky.
The next moment, his extremely strong eyesight helped him identify the true appearance of this "big bird".
That's not a bird, it's a hang glider.
Under the white hang glider is a figure wearing a white suit.
The outfit was so special that Bai Heqing recognized the identity of the figure at the first moment.
However, what really attracted his attention was not the white figure, but the other figure that was tightly held by the white figure.
The figure was very thin and looked to be about six or seven years old, a little girl.
She had short, slightly curly brown hair, and her fine, smooth hair was constantly blown by the air current. She was obviously just a little girl, but for some reason, her eyes always revealed a cold melancholy.
But these are not the point.
The point is, Baihe Qing recognized the little girl.
【Shiho? 】
He raised his head and looked at the white "big bird" high in the sky, with an extremely rare look of disbelief in his eyes.
It was difficult to tell what his expression was at that moment. Bai Heqing just stared blankly for a long time, until the two of them disappeared behind the building. He finally lowered his head slowly, drooped his eyelids, sighed very slightly, and his expression was filled with deep sadness.
[You finally showed up...]
There seemed to be some helplessness and regret in his tone.
Chapter 340 She is just my ordinary friend!
"Then Officer Sato, what should we do next..." Not quite understanding the sudden change in Shirakawa Kiyoshi's mood, the SWAT team member next to him asked tentatively.
"I just asked the hostages who were captured by the terrorists and brought to Beiye to stay on the tenth floor temporarily. Let's send a team to pick them up first..."
His face returned to its original expression. Bai Heqing no longer looked at the white "big bird" in the sky. He thought for a moment and said:
"Just leave one team in the hall to defend it, and all the other teams will follow me back to Dongye... By the way, how is the situation over there, Detective Fengjian?"
Suddenly thinking of this annoying and unlucky-looking policeman, Bai Heqing asked.
"Detective Fengjian seems to have rescued a group of hostages in Nanye. According to the information from these hostages, the terrorists in Nanye Building may have gathered on the 24th floor...
Detective Kazama has already brought the rescued hostages back to Touye. Officer Sato, you can go and confirm the details with Detective Kazama in person."
"I understand. What about the situation inside Dongye?" Bai Heqing asked again after quickly giving orders to the special police teams inside and outside Beiye through the headphones to move closer to Dongye Building.
The two of them quickly rushed towards Dongye along the street, taking advantage of the cover of the surrounding trees and buildings.
Among them, the special police team followed Bai Heqing closely and replied: "Dongye has basically been cleared. Except for a terrorist's body found in a room on the fourth floor, there are no other terrorists in the Dongye building...
In addition, our team also rescued some civilians who were hiding in the East Leaf Building after the terrorist attack.
Finally, as for Commander Kuroda, according to your previous order, Officer Sato, we have reported the current situation on the island to Commander Kuroda.
Commander Kuroda asked us to tell you that the command is organizing a second batch of special police forces to land on the island. He suggested that you should temporarily stop your radical actions and seek peaceful negotiations with the terrorists.
Of course, Commander Kuroda also emphasized that you are now the front-line commander of the landing operation. If the situation on the island is critical, you have the final say on how we should act at that time, and you don’t have to act according to the orders of the headquarters..."
"I understand." Shirakawa Qing nodded and said, "Report to Commander Kuroda for me and tell him that the hostages in Beiye have been successfully rescued by us and all the terrorists in Beiye have been killed or captured.
In Nanye, Detective Fengjian also rescued a group of hostages. As for the next action... let me discuss it with Detective Fengjian before making a decision."
"Yes."
As the two of them were talking, they had already arrived at the entrance of Dongye Building.
"Officer Sato!"
Nodding to the SWAT officers standing guard around the area, Bai Heqing quickly walked into the building.
"Wow! Is the uncle okay? He looks badly injured..."
A large crowd had gathered in the lobby on the first floor of Dongye. Except for a very small number of special police officers who were there to maintain order, most of them were hostages or innocent civilians who were rescued by the police and gathered here.
In the corner among these people, there was a dark-skinned high school boy who spoke with a Kansai accent. He was squatting in front of a carpet, looking down at an unconscious middle-aged man.
There were several women and children surrounding the high school boys, even Yuya Kazami was there, it looked very lively.
"He has a head injury, but it doesn't look serious. Let's go to the hospital after this incident is over..."
After squatting down and carefully observing the wound on the head of the unconscious Kogoro Mouri caused by the bookshelf, Yuya Kazami spoke.
When the special police team was cleaning the Toye Building, they found Conan and Kanako Shimazaki who had finally pried open the door of the president's office and escaped. Under the leadership of these two people, they rescued Kogoro Mouri who was still in a coma.
"Hey, are you all here?"
Just then, Bai Heqing walked into the group with a smile and greeted them.
"Officer Sato?!"
Hearing this familiar voice, Conan quickly turned around and asked happily: "I heard that you went to rescue the hostages of Kitabaye before, so did you see Xiaolan, Sonoko and Huibara?!"
Not seeing these people in the lobby on the first floor seemed to make him a little flustered.
"Ran and Sonoko? I don't think I've seen them in Kitaye's warehouse before. I don't think they are in Kitaye, but Huibara..."
【By the way, who is Huiyuan? 】
Bai Heqing had a headache.
Judging from Yusaku's grown-up tone, it seems that this person named "Haihara" should be someone Sato Miwako knows.
But... he doesn't know him.
"She's the girl with brown curly hair, about my age. She's usually quiet, but you've met her once or twice before, Officer Sato!" Conan explained anxiously, not noticing anything unusual about Shirakawa Kiyoshi.
If there is a possibility that Xiaolan, Sonoko and the others are not in Kitaye, Haibara is absolutely certain that they are in the warehouse in Kitaye!
But, but Officer Sato seems...
[Grayhara... So, Grayhara refers to her? ]
"Ah, now I remember, I did see Huiyuan, but not in the Beiye Building..."
Listening to Conan's description, Shirakawa Kiyoshi instantly guessed who the "Haibara" he was talking about was and nodded with a smile.
"I noticed her when I was leaving Beiye Building. It seemed like she was taken to the sky by that Kaito Kidd. I don't know what happened..."
"Kaito Kid?!" Conan was stunned at first, but soon he breathed a sigh of relief.
Although he doesn't know why Kaito Kidd would appear here, Conan has to admit that this pretentious thief has always been very principled, and Haibara is absolutely safe with him.
"Conan, you seem very nervous..." Looking at Conan meaningfully, Shirakawa Qing asked with a smile: "Is there any special relationship between you and Huiyuan?"
"Huh?! Officer Sato, don't let your imagination run wild! We are just partners!" Conan explained hurriedly, looking a little embarrassed.
"uh-huh……"
Bai Heqing looked at him deeply.
"If it's an important partner, you have to protect him well..."
