【Chi'an】Lies Tetralogy

Chapter 16 The True Meaning Under the Rose

The bullets shot and sparks scattered, and the boys hiding behind the pillar subconsciously shrunk their bodies and approached each other. "This is troublesome!" Kaito covered the top of his head with his hands, "I didn't expect them to be murderous, and even you..."

"I'm afraid they have given up on finding Noah's Ark, and plan to wipe out everyone who knows about it!" Conan said hastily, "I was another survivor in the game back then, and I was naturally their target. Now only Get out of here first—”

He turned to see Kidd blinking and grinning at him.

"Escaping is a thief's forte~"

The strange thief took off the top hat on his head, twirled it in his hands twice in a mysterious way, and then slammed the hat into the air.The gunshots rang out immediately, and Conan only had time to see the white hat explode like fireworks at the moment of being hit, before he found himself being hugged around the waist.

"Wow~~~!!!"

There was an unwitting cheer from the crowd gathered on the ground.Swirling colored smoke suddenly shot out from the top of Nona Tower, forming beautiful ripples in the night sky, and then a white sail lightly pierced through the smoke, "Kidd!" Many people shouted excitedly.

"As a responsible idol, I don't want to disappoint my enthusiastic fans." They gradually moved away from Nonata, and Kidd looked down at the elementary school student in his arms. "How do you feel, detective?"

"It's terrible." The male protagonist's hair was blown up by the high air current, with a resigned expression.

"Let's be a little more romantic. We not only narrowly escaped death, but also escaped very artistically."

"Compared to this, you have to inform Mr. Akai and the others as soon as possible."

Mr. Thief was disappointed by his realism. The detective struggled to touch the phone. Just as he was about to dial the number, Kidd suddenly let out a low "No!" Ming was suffocated, and the two began to plummet from the air at an extremely fast speed!

At the same time a row of bullets whizzed past their heads.Conan felt that he was pressed tightly against the opponent's chest, and they rolled twice in the air. He saw the flames of the machine guns of the helicopter chasing after him, and knew that Kidd used the acceleration of the free fall to avoid the first wave of attacks.The terrible feeling of falling caused his heart to be thrown into his throat, but the arm holding him was so hard, "Grab me!" the boy shouted.

The surroundings were blurred, and they rushed to the ground like meteors. At the moment when a building blocked the helicopter's sight, Kidd seized the opportunity to open the hang glider again, using the tall building as a cover, and flew to a place where the enemy could not shoot .

"They didn't hesitate to chase us to such an extent to kill us...Is that a police helicopter?!"

"Mr. Amuro was framed before, which means that the high-level police department is likely to be involved!"

The drone of the helicopter was still audible as the two flew around the building, constantly changing flight paths, and getting louder.If this continues, they will still be caught up!What to do—just as Kaito was thinking nervously, a helicopter crossed the roof and appeared above them. "Oops……"

Then there was a second, and then a third. "Huh?" The detective's expression changed. "They didn't come after us!"

More police helicopters formed a circle in the air, slowly closing in on the one that fired earlier, forcing it to hover. "What's going on here?" Kaito turned his head to look at this scene in amazement.Conan turned on the infrared telephoto function of the glasses and looked down at the street.Among the flashing police lights, he found a familiar person.

"That's...Mr. White Horse??"

"I should have thought of it," Kuai Dou's mouth twitched, "The only person who can mobilize this kind of arrest scale is the police chief!"

He also looked down at the ground.Among the crowd looking up, the son of the police chief folded his arms and smiled. "You're welcome." White Horse Tan said.

The hang glider flew steadily into the distance. "It should be fine now..." the hero let out a long breath.

"I also don't think there is any need for more thrills tonight." Kidd let out a low laugh from his throat.Conan noticed the sweat on his cheeks, "Wait, are you hurt?!"

The boy's sleeve was stained red, but he still smiled heartlessly. "Just a scrape."

The detective looked at him worriedly, and then remembered that he had to call Akai, so he quickly dialed the number on his mobile phone.

"Huh? I can't get through..."

***

Amuro's arm holding the gun was very steady.At his feet, Akai's phone had been shattered into pieces.The man who was caught off guard by the sneak attack supported his body on his knees, his breath a little stagnant.He was still not completely down, and was trying to control his consciousness, which brought a tinge of irritated admiration to Amuro.

"That's the ultimate goal of the FBI, right? Capture Noah's Ark."

"..." The field of vision is sometimes blurred and sometimes clear, like looking up from underwater.Akai frowned with difficulty, trying to figure out Amuro's expression at the moment, but the blond youth was standing in the shadows.Only the voice is cold and audible.

"Don't blame me, Akai. The cooperation is over. Noah's Ark and those two suspects will never be handed over to you. I will find them first."

This awe-inspiring aura belongs to Furutani Rei, but this dangerous posture belongs to Bourbon.The current Amuro seems to be both in one, and the cute lover who helped him tidy up his clothes with a pursed mouth a few minutes ago has completely disappeared.Akai suddenly found all this absurd and interesting, and in the bouts of dull pain, the words that Judy and James had said sporadically flashed through his mind.

"After all, he is a member of the Japanese public security. If he chooses "that side"..."

"Akai-kun, no matter what, we cannot lose you"

Akai put his hand on the wall, and the corner of his mouth twitched slightly.Amuro pointed the gun at him warily.Akai just raised his face to him as usual, showing a provocative smile.

"What if I say no?"

Amuro was taken aback.Then, he took a step back and a light illuminated the smile in his eyes.

"That's the old way."

——As long as it’s me and you, it will always end up like this.

***

Amuro left.Akai heard the sound of the car starting and was sure that he could take the next step.Amuro destroyed his cell phone, confiscated his weapon and drove away his car. Akai picked up the pack of cigarettes on the ground, thinking that at least Amuro had kindly left him something.

Back on the ground, the crowd around Nonata has begun to disperse, but the number of police cars has not decreased. At the same time, there are still helicopters circling in the sky, making the atmosphere a bit tense.Judging from this, Kidd has probably escaped, and the thugs in Nonata should have been controlled by the police.

The Prohibition Research Association was exposed, the Quangongsi Group building was about to collapse, and the "inner ghosts" in the political and police circles were also facing elimination.

The remaining problem is to find the whereabouts of Noah's Ark.

Akai took out a cigarette and put it in his mouth, the smell of nicotine relieved the drowsiness and pain in his head slightly.He left the parking lot, but he didn't go far when a strange car slid in front of him.The window was lowered, and when Akai saw the person in the driver's seat clearly, he couldn't help raising his eyebrows.

"Come up."

It's Yuya Kazami.

There were too many accidents tonight.But any crisis is an opportunity. For Akai at this moment, unexpected developments are what he likes to see. "I think you're still recuperating now."

"You can't just lie in the hospital and do nothing."

"The spirit is commendable." Akai opened the door and got into the back seat. "Are all Jiang Gu's subordinates as desperate as you?"

"After Mr. Jiang Gu was issued the strange arrest warrant, we have all been excluded from the search, similar to suspension of observation... But everyone believes that Mr. Jiang Gu is innocent, and secretly did not give up efforts .”

Only Furutani's subordinates knew about the action of besieging the Kudou family to expose Okiya Subaru's identity.During this period of time, the Kudou's house has not been discovered as their hiding place, which also proves that Furutani's subordinates are loyal.

"You guys alone can't bring down the shady scenes at the top, and Jiang Gu probably doesn't want you to get involved."

"I know." Kazami could be heard sighing slightly, "Mr. Furuya is always like this. He always takes risks alone and rushes to the front... That's why we must do our best just in case."

"Sorry for hurting you before." Akai glanced at the crutches on the passenger seat. "I thought you'd at least wear a body armor."

"It seems that Mr. Jiang Gu has taken it back for me." Kazami pushed his glasses and looked ahead. "He probably didn't want you to be too embarrassed when you went back to the FBI to do business, just like you shot me at the beginning."

After working together to find out the mastermind behind the Ark case, in order to capture Noah's Ark, the FBI and the police are bound to confront each other again.

"Then why did you give me, the FBI, a ride?"

"Who knows?" From the rearview mirror, he could see a slight smile on Kazami's face for the first time. "Perhaps to mock you?"

He pointed to under the back seat.Akai looked down and saw a rifle under the seat.It was the one he had stolen by Kidd before. "Mr. Jiang Gu told me that it was confiscated, and I haven't had time to turn it in." Kazami said.

Akai tacitly took back the gun. "He's supposed to be driving a red Subaru. Can you catch up?"

"Already searching." Kazakhstan quickly started the car, put on the headset:

"Attention all members of the Jianggu team, all vehicles are now moving. Prepare to cover Mr. Jianggu!"
