Conan: Goodbye, Brewery, I'm running away
Chapter 254: The Bride of Halloween - Hunter's Trap
Conan chased all the way to the parking lot and saw the familiar figure. The person seemed to be waiting for him and seemed to have just noticed him chasing after her. She slowed down her pace, stopped next to an ordinary-looking car, and leaned against the car casually.
Seeing her stop, Conan didn't run as fast as before. He ran to a place not far from the person. He raised one hand to support the car body next to him and panted slightly, "Vermouth."
Vermouth, who had already removed the Sato Miwako disguise on her face and was left with only an ordinary face, raised her eyebrows at him. She did not speak, as if waiting for him to speak first.
Conan was thinking about Vermouth's intentions when he was chasing after her, and now he has almost figured it out.
After he took a breath, he looked up at Vermouth in front of him and asked, "Did you find the people who were protected by the police last night?"
Vermouth just had a faint smile on her face, "You have already guessed it, you can see through it at a glance."
Conan pondered.
"Don't worry, the organization is planning to give up on that person."
Vermouth held a lady's cigarette in her hand, but she did not light it. She just played with it casually in her hand.
"Why?" Conan looked up suddenly, a little surprised.
“Why?” Vermouth’s smile deepened. “In the face of a trap that is clearly set for us, even if it is a traitor that must be dealt with, we will still let him go for a bit. Gin is not a mindless killing machine.”
Vermouth looked at the slightly changed expression on Conan's face, and the smile on her face became more meaningful. "And Gin already has a more important goal. For that goal, Gin can put aside the not-so-important traitor in the hospital."
Conan tried to maintain his composure and changed the subject, "Is Miss Akikawa okay?"
He has temporarily cut off contact with Mr. Amuro since last night. Like Haibara, he is very worried about the safety of Akikawa Sarina.
When mentioning Akikawa Sarina who took the initiative not to communicate with her, Vermouth's eyes flashed with worry, "The news from Gin said that she is fine."
She also heard what Bourbon said from Gin, but she was still a little worried, so she came to the Metropolitan Police Department without telling anyone.
As for Akikawa Sarina's relationship with the police, it has just become another tacit understanding between her and Conan, another tacit understanding that she would reveal certain information to him before.
Conan was somewhat curious about the relationship between Vermouth and Akikawa Sarina. His blue eyes were fixed on Vermouth. "You are very worried about her."
Vermouth was not shy about telling Conan about the relationship between her and Akikawa Sarina. She took out a lighter and lit the cigarette in her hand. She slowly blew out the smoke ring, "After all, I watched her grow up, so I naturally care about her safety."
"Okay, if you have anything to ask, you can ask the child after she comes back."
Vermouth looked at Conan with a half-smile, "She always speaks her mind to people she doesn't dislike. I'm sure you should be aware of this."
Conan's pupils shrank suddenly, "You know..."
"I don't know." Vermouth interrupted Conan, "I don't know anything about you."
After she said this, she opened the car door and got in. After putting out her cigarette in the car, she waved to Conan and drove out of the parking lot.
Conan waited until she was out of sight before he put away the expression on his face.
It seems that everything is going smoothly. Just as Mr. Morobushi and Mr. Akai thought, Gin has indeed set its sights on the more important Mr. Morobushi... oh, no, it's the former Scotch Whisky.
------
Conan recalled the terrifying and somewhat chaotic experience of last night. Now he just felt a little tired.
After he separated from Mr. Amuro, he couldn't help his curiosity and went to the nurses' station to take a look at the list of inpatients on that floor.
Unexpectedly... Conan's mouth twitched. He was unexpectedly frightened by Kid, who was dressed as a nurse, with a gun.
Although he had expected Kidd to cooperate with the police after several previous cases, he did not expect Kidd to cooperate so thoroughly.
The police actually gave him real guns.
Thinking of the actual feeling of the gun pointed at the back of his head yesterday, Conan still feels the hairs on his body stand on end.
Later, he was taken to a ward by Jide who was disguised as a nurse. After that, although he joined the organization's plan as he wished, it was also the right time that Miss Akikawa mentioned when he communicated with her before.
But when Conan thought of Mr. Amuro's warning to him before he left, he felt speechless.
The public security department had long anticipated what he might do, so they had prepared an action plan for him early in the morning. Mr. Amuro's warning at the time was purely to tease him.
Really, even in that situation, he still had the mood to tease him. Mr. Amuro is really becoming more and more unstable.
Conan complained in his heart with his half-moon eyes, and walked back.
Just at this moment Conan noticed that his cell phone was vibrating. He shook his head slightly to get rid of the chaotic thoughts in his mind, took out his cell phone, and saw that it was the contact information of Mr. Morobushi that he had saved last night. After looking around to make sure that there was no one around, he found a quiet corner to answer the call.
......
Kudo House.
Judy looked at Okiya Subaru, who had just come back and was about to go out again. She was worried, but she didn't say anything in the end. She just watched Okiya Subaru leave with the head of the Kudo family, Yukiko Kudo, who had returned temporarily.
While seeing people off, Kudo Yukiko quietly looked at Judy and Okiya Subaru separately, and then sighed in her heart. This is the true portrayal of the saying in neighboring China, "The goddess has the heart, but the king has no dream."
But she just sighed in her heart, and then took Judy, who wanted to say goodbye, back home.
Dr. Ali's house next door.
Haibara Ai, who was also on sick leave at home, wore a mask on her face and stood in front of the window watching Okiya Subaru who was about to leave Kudo's house.
Noticing the gaze from Professor Agasa, Subaru Okiya looked in the direction of the gaze with a gentle smile on his face, and directly met the gaze of Haibara Ai who was looking at him in the room.
Haibara Ai, who already knew the other person's identity, did not avoid him as usual, but just looked at him straight.
As if he had noticed the emotion in Haibara Ai's eyes, the smile on Okiya Subaru's face widened a little. He nodded slightly to Haibara Ai, put the instrument bag behind him into the car, and then drove his Subaru away from the street where the Kudo family and Dr. Agasa's house were.
"Ai-chan." Dr. Agasa glanced at the empty street and looked at Haibara Ai worriedly.
Huihara Ai turned around and looked at Dr. Agasa. Noticing the doctor's concern for her, her expression softened slightly, "I'm fine, doctor, cough cough cough..."
Before she finished speaking, she coughed a few times. This time she asked for leave from school because she was really sick.
She looked outside again, holding a small brooch tightly in her hand. It was delivered by Fusae's staff yesterday afternoon, saying that it was the address left by a lady. Later, some gifts were also delivered. There were labels on the gift boxes, which were for Professor Agasa and the children of the detective team.
Along with the brooch, there was also a small note with Akikawa Sarana's handwriting on it, saying that these were Halloween gifts for everyone. She saw them while shopping and thought they were suitable for everyone, as a return gift for the amulets that everyone had asked her for.
She was very happy to receive the gift, but in the early morning she received a message from Kudo saying that something happened to Akikawa...
Dr. Agasa also knew why she didn't take the medicine and rest. "Ms. Akikawa should be fine."
Although he said this, the worry in his tone did not diminish in the slightest. Dr. Agasa also felt that even if Miss Akikawa was a member of that organization, she would not be able to escape if she was suddenly kidnapped without any warning.
And Shinichi has been busy these days. Dr. Agasa feels that while the public security, FBI and that organization are all busy, Miss Akikawa may have to rely on her own strength to escape from the bomber's kidnapping.
Haibara Ai also knew what Dr. Agasa was thinking. She nodded with a heavy face. She only hoped that things would not turn out to be the worst as she had guessed.
......
Yi Dahang was holding the things he had just bought from the convenience store. He walked into a sparsely populated alley as if he was just taking a shortcut home.
At the end of the alley, a white Mazda was parked there. When Yi Dahang saw the white Mazda, his eyes lit up with a toothpick in his mouth. He looked around inconspicuously, and after confirming that there was nothing unusual, he got into the car.
"It's rare that you would contact me on your own initiative."
After getting into the car, Date Kou looked at Amuro Toru who was in the driver's seat, "F... No, your name is Amuro Toru now. Long time no see, Amuro."
Amuro Toru's originally sullen face also relaxed a lot because he rarely saw his good friend, "Long time no see, squad leader."
The two of them exchanged only these two pleasantries. Date Kou took out a toothpick from his mouth, looked at Amuro Toru seriously and asked, "What happened? How can I help you?"
He just returned to Tokyo the day before yesterday, which was considered a year-end holiday. After returning to Tokyo, he only briefly met with Hagiwara Kenji and Matsuda Jinpei, and then the two guys left in a hurry because of overtime. He was not in a hurry, after all, there was a week of annual leave, and he would always have a chance to meet the two guys again.
As for Furuya Rei and Morobushi Kagemitsu, he had never held out any hope of meeting them. Although he felt a little regretful, he was already very satisfied knowing that they were both fine.
But what Ida Kou didn't expect was that he suddenly received an email from Furuya Rei early this morning. If the email didn't contain the secret code that only a few of them knew when they studied in the police academy, he would not have dared to believe that it was Furuya Rei who contacted him and wanted to meet him.
Until just before he saw his good friend, Ida Ko was still in a state of half-belief and half-doubt.
"There is indeed something very important that I need to confirm with you, squad leader."
After leaving the basement in the early morning, Toru Amuro went home and carefully studied the recording on the computer that Sarina kept at home. Through the content of the recording, he also understood why Sarina thought that the two people were Pramya.
Excluding gender, they are indeed the only two most suspicious.
Amuro Toru hesitated for a moment, but still asked Ida Ko directly, "Captain, does your wife Ms. Natalie have any old injuries on her right arm? Can she lift it normally?"
"Of course you can. Natalie and I played tennis last week..." When Ida Hang heard his question, he answered him without thinking.
However, he stopped talking halfway. As a working criminal policeman, he keenly sensed that something was wrong, and he spoke more cautiously next, "Amuro, is there a case involving Natalie? We just came back from Osaka the day before yesterday, and Natalie and I have basically never been apart since we came back."
When Toru Amuro heard the first sentence from Date Kou, he had already let go of his last bit of vigilance. He did not believe Ms. Natalie, but his squad leader.
His brows relaxed again. "Squad leader, do you still remember the bomber Pramiya from three years ago? The four serial bombings in Tokyo this time were all her doing."
Date Ko caught the most crucial word in Amuro Toru's words, "Remember, she escaped from us three years ago, and the bombing case was suppressed because it involved foreign countries. The bombing in Tokyo these days was actually done by her?"
"Ah."
Amuro Toru nodded, "My girlfriend was kidnapped by Pramya yesterday. After her investigation, we determined that Pramya was a blonde woman. After analysis, we have locked on two people. Sorry, squad leader."
He was apologizing for having doubted the squad leader's wife.
As a serving criminal policeman, Date Ko understands Amuro Toru's behavior very well, and Amuro Toru did nothing else but chose to ask him directly, which also showed his trust in the couple.
"What are you talking about? You need to apologize there."
Date Ko patted Amuro Toru's shoulder, and then he reacted to another sentence Amuro Toru said, his girlfriend?
It was known that his friend would not do such an irresponsible thing while undercover, and his friend's tone was worried and gentle when he mentioned the girl.
Thinking of the conversation they had on the way to the convenience store when they were in the police academy, Yi Dahang was stunned for a moment, "Did you find that girl?"
Apart from that girl, he didn't think his friend would fall in love with someone else when he was undercover in such a life-threatening situation.
