Conan: Goodbye, Brewery, I'm running away

The border between Nagano Prefecture and Gunma Prefecture.

The black Porsche 356A was driving fast on the road bordering the two places. Gin, who was resting with his eyes closed in the car, heard Vodka let out a light exclamation.

When he opened his eyes, he heard Vodka say, "Brother, someone is following us."

The moment Gin opened his eyes, he noticed something was wrong in the rearview mirror. There was no emotion in his dark green eyes. He stared silently at the cars in the rearview mirror that were pretending to slowly form a siege.

After staring at the cars for a few seconds, when they were about to reach the intersection, Gin said coldly: "Go to Usuiyama."

Vodka didn't hesitate and turned left at the intersection, abandoning the road they were originally going to take to Karuizawa and following Gin's instructions to drive towards Usuiyama.

The police officer closest to the Porsche also changed lanes after noticing the black Porsche in front of him changed lanes. At the same time, the police officer in the passenger seat said into the intercom: "Mr. Zhu Fu, the target person is heading towards Usuiyama Road."

At the hidden place leading to the last entrance of the Usui Mountain Trail, Zhu Fu Jingguang aimed his sniper rifle at the far end of the road. After hearing his colleague's report, he said softly, "Okay, remember, just follow the plan. Your safety is the most important. If you are attacked, you must stop tracking immediately."

Hearing his instructions, the police in the several cars that were tracking the black Porsche replied at the same time: "Hai!"

Morobushi Keimitsu continued to look into the distance through the scope. Their goal today was not to capture Gin, but to cooperate with the plan that Amuro Toru had set up in Tokyo before, so that Gin would think that it was Rum's people who leaked his information.

As for the route Gin might choose, that was determined by the three of them after a long period of research based on Gin's personality.

Zhu Fu Jingguang gently stroked the sniper rifle in his hand.

Before, he and Zero had wanted to abandon this plan after learning about the relationship between the BOSS and Akikawa and the BOSS's thoughts.

But Akikawa disagreed. She believed that since the plan was half done and traces had been left, it must be carried out. Otherwise, Gin might think of other things, which would cause them more trouble.

Morobushi Keimitsu and Amuro Toru initially planned to abandon this plan for the safety of Akikawa Sarina, but under Akikawa Sarina's insistence, the two had no choice but to agree.

The snowflakes that were still falling during the day had stopped at this time, and Zhu Fu Jingguang, who had several hot packs stuck on his body, did not feel cold at this time. After only ten minutes, the familiar black Porsche appeared in his sight.

Zhu Fu Jingguang silently calculated the distance in his mind, and when the Porsche entered his shooting range, he decisively pulled the trigger.

Sitting in the car, Gin could no longer see the trash in the rearview mirror, but he did not let his guard down.

At this moment, he raised his eyes and looked in the direction of Usuiyama. At the same time, he snatched the steering wheel from Vodka's hand and quickly turned the steering wheel to the right.

Although Vodka was a little panicked, he was not without experience. He did not relax his foot on the accelerator, took his hands off the steering wheel, and completely handed the direction to his elder brother Gin.

Of course, he also understood the moment his big brother took action, there was a sniper!

After hearing the sound of a bullet hitting the road, Gin said to Vodka in a cold voice: "Stop the car."

Vodka obeyed the order and stopped the car in the middle of the road.

Although it was a snowy winter night, it shouldn't be so quiet here in Usuiyama. After they came over, no other car drove from their direction.

After Zhu Fu Jingguang failed in his first attack, he did not fire a second shot, but he did not leave either. Instead, he continued to look at Gin quietly through the scope.

------

He was waiting, waiting for Gin's next reaction. He thought Gin wouldn't let him wait too long.

From Zhu Fu Jingguang's perspective, he only saw the Porsche at an exaggerated angle... No, it wasn't too exaggerated. He quietly changed the word in his mind... After all, the people he knew were all racing masters.

The Porsche left his shooting range at an angle that was more common to him, and then slammed on the brakes to a stop.

Looking at the Porsche in the sight without any movement, Zhu Fujing's lips slightly raised. With Gin's ability, he should have discovered the sniper point just now.

Sure enough, the next moment, Zhufu Jingguang and Gin met each other's sights through the sight and telescope respectively.

Inside the Porsche, Gin's expression grew increasingly grim. He called out the name of the man who ambushed them in a sinister tone, "Scotland."

Vodka was stunned. "Scotland?! The undercover agent who fled the organization in a hurry... He actually dared to show up in front of Big Brother!"

After he said that, he took a telescope and looked in the direction his eldest brother was looking. Sure enough, he saw a person who looked vaguely familiar through the telescope.

"It's really him."

Vodka was a little bit incredulous. In his mind, Scotland should still be the rat undercover who was hiding from them, living in fear every day, afraid of being found by them. How could he suddenly jump in front of them and provoke them like this?

Gin was filled with murderous intent. When Scotland was discovered as an undercover agent, he was on another mission. When he returned to Japan, Scotland had already escaped from the organization and even killed and injured several codenamed and non-codenamed members.

There has been no news since he escaped from the organization. Now...

Gin opened the car door and got out.

"Brother..." Vodka was a little nervous. The location they were in had an open field of vision and no suitable cover. It could be said that it was a very suitable place to be ambushed. Scotland was now in an advantageous position and they were at a disadvantage. It was safest to be in a bulletproof car.

However, even though he thought so, he still chose to follow his eldest brother out of the car.

Gin took out the sniper rifle he had placed in the trunk of the car.

Zhu Fujingguang, who was ambushing at a high altitude, saw Gin's movements and said into the headset: "Team 2, come up."

Just in case, they made plans for every possible choice Gin could imagine.

......

In the banquet hall, Akikawa Sarina, who had already separated from that person, found a corner to rest with a glass of orange juice.

The person she was apparently waiting for had not arrived yet, and she came here today just to go through the motions, so she was still very relaxed.

In fact, she seemed to be the most relaxed person in the whole plan. Zero was in charge of checking Rum's information, and Morobushi was in charge of framing Rum. Kuroda Bei, who was targeted by Rum, would cooperate with their acting, and even Tomoko volunteered to help Zero secretly complete his investigation.

All she needs to do is send some investigation reports to the BOSS on time.

Even the BOSS has to consider how to balance the forces in the organization, and she only needs to act.

When the time was almost up, the banquet had not yet started, and the protagonist of the banquet had not appeared yet. Only the parents of the newlyweds were communicating with the guests in the banquet hall.

Akikawa Sarina heard a buzzing sound in her head, and the system panel refreshed today's task, which was to assist the police in solving a murder case at a wedding banquet.

[It seems like today is another case where the deceased is not innocent. ]

Akikawa Sarana has figured out the pattern of daily tasks. If a murder is about to happen and the victim is innocent, the system's task will be issued in advance, asking her to stop the murderer from killing.

If the victim is guilty, the system's tasks will generally either not be refreshed with tasks related to the case, or only a task will be issued for her to assist in solving the case.

That's why she expressed such emotion after seeing the mission.

[It should be.] The system also came back to its senses from the novel it was reading, [Host, do you want my help?]

[No, just keep on detecting and have fun.]

【OK. 】

As the parents of the newlyweds were also asked to leave, most people in the banquet hall began to feel that something was wrong. After all, some of the people present were police officers.

Akikawa Sarina glanced at the three people led by Morobushi Takaaki in another corner, and saw someone calling them away. Akikawa Sarina put the orange juice in her hand, which she had not drunk a drop of, on the table, and quietly went to the mission location on the system map behind.

However, halfway through her walk, she ran head-on into the policewoman from the trio she had just seen.

As soon as Uehara Yui saw Akikawa Sarana, she matched the characteristics she had just heard with the lady she met in the corridor: a lady with light blue hair, gray-blue eyes, and who looked a little thin.

"Excuse me, are you Ms. Akikawa Sarana?" Yui Uehara stopped Akikawa Sarana.

"It's me, who are you?" It was the first time that Akikawa Sarana saw Uehara Yui, and there was a hint of hesitation on her face.

Hearing that she didn't deny it, Yui Uehara felt a little relieved, but then she looked reluctant again. "I'm Yui Uehara, a detective from the Nagano Prefecture Investigation Division. Something has happened. Miss Akikawa, please come with me."

Yui Uehara showed her ID to Sarana Akikawa, and then led her in the direction she had just come from.

Akikawa Sarina did not miss the fleeting look of reluctance on Uehara Yui's face. She blinked and had a guess in her mind.

No way? Could it be that he was the one who died?

When Akikawa Sarina thought of the man who came to the banquet hall and took her to meet the bride and then left, a strange look flashed in her eyes.

When Uehara Yui brought her to a lounge, she smelled a strong smell of blood as soon as she approached the door.

Choked by the smell of blood, Akikawa Sarina frowned slightly, but she didn't say anything. She just followed Uehara Yui through the door and into the room.

After entering the room, Akikawa Sarina almost couldn't control her expression. Wow, this room was a perfect place for both the dragon and the phoenix.

Well...it's not derogatory, it's complimentary, Crouching Dragon and Phoenix Chick.

Everyone in the room had different expressions when they saw Akikawa Sarana, except for a few people who knew or guessed from the beginning that the person the bride described to the police was Akikawa Sarana.

After everyone reacted, most of them looked directly at Toru Amuro in the room.

As soon as Toru Amuro saw Akikawa Sarina, he walked towards Akikawa Sarina from the innermost part of the room.

"Sarina!" There was a hint of surprise in Toru Amuro's tone, and underneath the surprise he also concealed some flattery for his angry girlfriend.

The expression on Akikawa Sarina's face changed slightly. In response to Amuro Toru's enthusiasm, she just snorted from her throat, as if she was in a bad mood but was holding back her temper because everyone was watching.

Akikawa Sarina's voice was much colder than usual, "Mr. Amuro."

Everyone in the room who knew about the relationship between the two had a somewhat subtle expression for a moment, except for one person, and that was Kenshinori Wakita who was standing behind Kogoro Mori.

Hearing Akikawa Sarina's distant address, the smile on Amuro Toru's face faded a little, and there was a bit of loss on his face. He once again looked at his girlfriend in front of him like a drowned puppy.

Looking at the atmosphere between the two, Mao Lilan, who was extremely worried, took a step forward, "Akira..."

But just as she started, Conan grabbed her hand. Mao Lilan looked down at Conan, only to see Conan raised his index finger to make a silent gesture, "Sister Xiaolan, this is not something we outsiders can interfere with."

Conan, who had already guessed something, didn't believe that these two people would quarrel. You know, when Miss Akikawa's vest fell off before, the two of them didn't quarrel, and they were thinking about each other and felt sorry for each other... Now the two of them are like this, they must be calculating something.

Conan glanced quietly at everyone in the room, and finally glanced at Kenshinori Wakita covertly. As for the person who was being plotted...it must be Rum without a doubt.

Conan glanced at Rum again, and seeing the fleeting smile on the other's face, he also smiled quietly in his heart.

Although he didn't know what Miss Akikawa and Mr. Amuro were planning, he knew they must have succeeded.

"Gao Ming, what's wrong?" Yamato Gansuke noticed that his friend seemed to be distracted. He was a little surprised because his friend rarely got distracted at the crime scene.

Zhu Fu Gaoming glanced towards the door. He remembered this girl. He had seen this girl next to Jing Guang two days ago.

He thought of the detective named Zero who had a very good relationship with Jingguang and now used the alias of Toru Amuro.

It turns out that she is not Jingguang's girlfriend but Ling's girlfriend. Zhufu Takaaki, who was originally waiting for his brother to bring his girlfriend to see him, sighed inwardly.

As for the two people who seemed to be arguing, although he was not told clearly, Zhu Fu Gaoming had already guessed something and did not intend to guess the implied meaning.

So when faced with his friend's question, Zhufu Takaaki just shook his head slightly, then walked towards Akikawa Sarina with his police manual.
