Chapter 431: Adjournment Vermouth
Chapter 431: Xiuting Vermouth

"So, it looks like Kamurocho is a place we must go to no matter what."
"Well, she and I went over to check it out this morning. It's no big deal."
"At most, it's a group of people who walk on the road for no apparent reason and start fighting whoever they bump into, and the passing police just ignore it, or a group of people are there asking for protection money or something like that."
Hattori Heiji said some confusing words that were surprising, but the famous detective from Kansai seemed to have no idea about it.
(…This situation is already quite serious, compared to Beika Town.)
The blue hedgehog frowned and finished the bowl of rice in his hand in a flash, then turned to look at Nanatsuki Koshimizu next to him, trying to get a different answer from the expired high school detective.
But unfortunately, Nanatsuki Koshimizu felt his gaze and nodded directly, indicating that it was indeed the case. The situation in Kamurocho was just as Hattori Heiji said.
He couldn't help but sigh, and said to Yuan Guang helplessly, holding his forehead.
"So, there are a lot of thugs in Kamurocho, and if they bump into someone on the road, they will just start fighting... Tsk, why does it sound like a Pokémon battle, as long as the eyes make contact, the fight will start..."
"However, we have to go now. We don't know where the so-called [Source of the Sai River] is. Hattori, Koshimizu, have you found the location of this place?"
The source of the Sai River is the unique intelligence organization in Kamurocho that Kaga Ranmaru told Koshimizu Nanatsuki about before. It is said to have an independent base, and it is difficult for people without connections to find the location of the source of the Sai River.
But on the other hand, the existence of Saizhiheyuan is hidden, and he is well aware of the information of various places in Kamurocho. As long as we can find Saizhiheyuan, the truth of the investigation of Tojo Clan will naturally come to light.
Therefore, unless you go to Kamurocho and break into the headquarters of the Tojo Clan, the best way to get intelligence is to find this so-called largest intelligence organization in Kamurocho.
(If I could mobilize police forces like Dante did, I would have surrounded the East City Clan's headquarters in the afternoon. I would have known what was going on by asking them on the spot. Why did all this trouble come from?)
(Hmm, Conan seems to have disappeared since the trial ended this morning. Is he investigating something else? Or does he have any clues about the progress of another case?)
The blue hedgehog stroked his chin, waiting for others to solve the lunch problem while thinking about matters concerning the Tojo Clan, Kamurocho, and the Shinigami Elementary School students.
He had no idea that at this moment, someone was planning to target his upcoming trip to Kamurocho and put all the blame for this case on the Tojo Clan.
In the top office of the automobile company, the elder of the organization codenamed Pisk leaned on the chair, looking at the view of Tokyo city outside the window as usual, and was quite proud of his own abilities.
Without him, the boss wouldn't have the power of Tokyo, and the organization wouldn't be where it is today!
Beep—beep—beep—The cell phone rang, and Piske frowned, knowing that the person calling this time was no ordinary person.
Because it was his break time, the office landline and his regular mobile phone were not in use, so the person who called him must have been using the backup phone that he rarely used.
(Another member of the organization? Humph, you ruined my good mood. I have already told you what to do. With such a big advantage and a flying dragon on your face, what mistakes can there be?)
Piske took out his spare mobile phone from his pocket, glanced at the caller's information on the screen, shook his head, and then pressed the answer button.
"What's the matter? Has something gone wrong somewhere else? Or is there anything else that needs my help to clean up?"
"...I want to know if those members of the East City Society who went to kill Yuan Guang this morning are your people."
The voice on the other end of the phone was calm and cold, but it always made people feel dangerous.
In response to this, Pisk sneered indifferently, leaned back in his boss chair, and said relaxedly.
"Yeah, what's the matter? Anyway, there is only one lawyer, so it's dealt with. Why do you still need to come to me for confirmation on this matter? There is no need, Vermouth, you are too cautious."
"...Really? What if I tell you that all the people you sent were killed by Xiang Yuanguang, and that they have now traced the source to the Dongcheng Society and are going to open your box this afternoon?"
Somewhere in Kamurocho, Vermouth, wearing a mask and with a hint of coldness in her voice, said something that made Pisco's heart stop, and for a moment he didn't know what to say in response!
"You, what did you say? There are more than a dozen people, and you can't even solve it with a lawyer?!"
This careless elder of the organization was horrified and finally realized that he seemed to have stabbed something incredible. Moreover, people had already found the Dongcheng Society, so it was only a matter of time before they found him!
A few drops of sweat dripped from his forehead. Piske swallowed his saliva, forced himself to calm down, thought about the countermeasures for this matter, and finally said it in a decisive tone.
“Vermouth, since you’re asking me this question, you should have already arrived at Kamurocho, right? I’ll tell you the name of the person I’m working with, and you’ll take care of that guy for me!”
"Of course, I won't let you do it alone. All members of other organizations who can go will go and obey your command. Besides, when this operation is over... I will give you a generous reward!"
A generous reward... well, only an elder like Pisk who has fallen behind the times and is behind the pace of the organization would say something like this, doesn't he know...?
As long as everything goes according to plan, the organization will be able to control an entire fertile country as a backup base.
Vermouth chuckled and hung up the phone, then turned to look at the Jinshan Group's base not far away.
(The progress of the defense lawyer's investigation may not be that fast. As long as the members of the Jinshan Group who traded with Pisk are dealt with first, the possibility of Pisk's identity being exposed can be covered up.)
(No, if people were to mistakenly believe that the member of the Jinshan Group was killed by Xiang Yuanguang, I could kill this character who gave me the most headache in this incident early.)
(As the saying goes, anyone with a spiky haircut can be Xiang Yuanguang...)
Vermouth took out the forged lawyer's medal from her pocket and quickly locked onto her target.
(This is the easiest thing for me.)
