Although the sniper rifle just now did not hit his vitals, but in such a harsh environment, the sniper rifle was still able to hit him. His marksmanship must be ranked among the best in the organization.
Could he be a codenamed member of the organization active in foreign countries?
After all, the new member would not dare to ride in Gin's car and show off in the city.
but--
Akai Shuichi saw a faint fire in the distance across the mountain road and narrowed his eyes slightly.
He had just hit the fuel tank of Gin's car. If they continued driving at that speed, it was only a matter of time before it exploded.
Although he was also in a mess, Gin's beloved car exploded, so at least he didn't lose anything.
Chapter 336: Thank you for the Porsche sent by the kindhearted person
Chu Ming and the dusty Vodka stood on the side of the road, looking at the burning wreckage of the priceless antique car in front of them, and looked at each other in surprise.
Chu Ming was the first to react and immediately blamed the driver: "How did you drive? You blew up my brother's car! You are done!"
Vodka stared blankly at the car in the middle of the road in the distance, seemingly losing all sense of his surroundings. When he heard Chu Ming's blame, he turned around in disbelief: "It was you who told me to drive Big Brother's car over here!"
"Don't talk nonsense. The key is not in my hand. I'm just giving you a suggestion. If you drive over, I will definitely sit in it. I am at most an accomplice, and you are the mastermind!" Chu Ming threw away the pot thrown by Vodka, slammed it on his head, and quickly changed the subject, "So what should we do now? Big brother will be back in a few days."
Vodka scratched his head. The 180-pound man squatted on the ground and looked at the car that had become a pile of scrap metal. He fell into deep thought: "What do you say? We disguise ourselves as terrorists and throw two bombs into the base where the big brother originally parked the car. Then we randomly find two undercovers and push the blame on them?"
"You think quickly..." Chu Ming looked at Vodka with a new look, "You don't want to be beaten by Big Brother, but want to be shot by him. Have you ever thought that if you blow up the base, you might be discovered by the boss before you can run away? Big Brother's car is parked at Base No. 3, and the odd-numbered bases are under the complete control of the boss. Don't you know that? Blowing up the base with a bomb, you are more undercover than an undercover agent."
Vodka was squeezed by Chu Ming and hugged his head.
Weak, pitiful, helpless, but able to eat.jpg
Chu Ming thought for a moment and kicked Vodka who was squatting on the ground: "Stop squatting, let's go and get one."
"Where can we get it?" Vodka stood up, his face full of hope.
"Go back to the base. I'm going to hack into the official database. Most people who get antique cars like this and can drive them on the road have usually registered them. I'll see if there are any near Tokyo, and then we -" Chu Ming stretched out his hand and made a gesture.
Vodka nodded knowingly and said innocently, "I have saved a lot of money, enough to buy one."
"..." Chu Ming was speechless, "You are a gangster, why are you so innocent? Go rob! But first we need to call someone to pick us up..."
——?(=゜ω゜)ノ——
After returning to the base, Chu Ming was typing away on the computer, while Vodka sat behind him waiting anxiously.
"Got it." Chu Ming pressed the confirmation button, "Eiji Hotei, 39 years old, single, lives alone at 7-chome-43, Beika-cho. He just bought a green Porsche 356A three months ago. It doesn't matter if the color is wrong. We can exchange car covers. We live close to each other, the car is well preserved, he lives alone, and doesn't have many friends. Perfect, he's the one!"
Vodka stood up and wanted to run out after confirming the location on the map, but Chu Ming stopped him: "What are you doing?"
"Go rob a car--" Vodka was a little confused.
Chu Ming sighed, he really couldn't help it: "You went to the downtown area to rob a car in broad daylight? What were you thinking?"
"Then wait till night?"
Chu Ming pointed to his head and said, "We need to use our brains. Robbery won't work. I just checked. When he was young, Hotei Ruisi liked to race cars. From some of his blog posts, we can see that he is impulsive and irritable. I will pretend to be his defeated opponent and send him a provocative text message, saying that I will wait for him on the winding mountain road in the suburbs. Let's go and have someone take us there."
"The winding mountain road... the road we were on just now? Going back? But we only saw from the blog that he had a defeated opponent, but we don't know what that person looks like..."
"It doesn't matter, as long as he goes out."
Vodka didn't understand, but he knew that if he asked any further he might be beaten by Granburch, so he answered obediently and went out to call for help.
Chu Ming disguised himself as Baileys at the base. When he arrived in the suburbs, Chu Ming drove Vodka behind a tree, saying that his image was not good and asked him to hide and not to scare people away.
Then he was standing alone on the side of the road. He saw a green Porsche driving towards him from a distance, so he stood on the side of the road and waved at him.
When Hotei Ruishi saw a beautiful woman stopping the car and no one around, he stopped the car without any suspicion, lowered the window, and asked in confusion: "Miss, what's wrong? Are you in trouble? Do you need my help?"
Chu Ming nodded and said pitifully, "My car broke down at the bend ahead. It's so remote here. Could you please give me a ride?"
"Where is the bend?" Following the direction of Chu Ming's finger, Butai Ruisi subconsciously stuck his head out of the window to look. The next second, his eyes went dark and he slid down.
Chu Ming put away the poison needle in his hand, quickly opened the car door, dragged the man out, and signaled Vodka to come over to help.
"What this is going to do..." Vodka took the person over and saw Chu Ming bringing him to the ruins of Gin's car. He seemed to understand what Chu Ming was going to do.
"Even if he doesn't have many friends, the police will find out that he once owned a Porsche. If he disappears out of thin air, it will be bad for Big Brother's travel. So the man went out for a car race and was unfortunately killed in an explosion due to a leak in the fuel tank of the old car he was driving. What do you think of this scenario?" Chu Ming faked the crime scene while chatting with Vodka, "By the way, let the peripheral members erase the traces of our fight with Akai Shuichi along the way, so as not to cause any unnecessary trouble."
Vodka looked at Chu Ming, who calmly poured the organization's special accelerant on the corpse and then stuffed the person into the wreckage of the car and set it on fire, and quietly took a step back. This was obviously a common murder scene for him, so why was it so horrifying when Granburch did it?
Gin's Porsche caught fire due to the explosion, and there were no signs of being hit by bullets. In addition, Chu Ming rearranged the scene and dripped a little gasoline along the way to disguise it as an oil leak. The whole scene looked seamless and was completely sufficient to deal with the police. Even if Conan came across it, he might not be able to find out the flaws.
"Let's go. Take the car to the organization's repair shop and give it a new outfit~" Chu Ming hummed a song and told Vodka to leave.
How could a small matter like a car explosion stump him?
Didn't a kind-hearted person send one here?
Thanks to the stranger for the Porsche, good people will have a peaceful life - uh, good people will have a peaceful next life~
Chapter 337 Identity exposed?
Maybe because they helped the organization members repair cars too much, more than an hour later, a familiar Porsche appeared in front of Chu Ming and Vodka.
"Okay, outside, now it's time to go inside. Do you remember what Big Brother usually puts in the car? Some small arrangements, hurry up and get them done. We need Big Brother to not notice anything when he comes back!"
Vodka nodded vigorously, and then began to change the interior layout of the car, including the familiar cigarette lighter and the tiny corners of the car. Vodka was used to driving this car, and he could easily adjust most of the layout.
So three hours after receiving the car from the kind-hearted person, the familiar Porsche appeared in front of the two again.
Chu Ming patted Vodka's shoulder vigorously and said, "Let's go and send Big Brother's new car back to its original place. No one is allowed to touch it before Big Brother comes back!"
The main reason was that he had ridden in this old antique car that was not fast enough. If he drove the sports car given to him by Vermouth this time, it would be impossible for Akai Shuichi to hit the gas tank! It was definitely not that he didn't dare to ride it.
Volta hummed in agreement, then stepped forward and started to drive away.
Gin will be returning home in a few days, but several of the tasks Gin gave him could not be completed because Kogoro Mori suddenly changed his route and returned to Tokyo.
These missions cannot be given to Bourbon, for fear that he would secretly rescue the people and ask for information about the organization with the police, so...
Chu Ming's gaze gradually turned to Vodka, who was driving with joy after surviving a disaster.
——Isn’t this a ready-made tool?
After getting in the car, Chu Ming leaned back and said, "Vodka, if I hadn't saved the day this time, you would have been finished."
Vodka nodded, then realized something was wrong and muttered quietly: "It was obviously you who caused this..."
Chu Ming turned a deaf ear to him. He didn't think it was his fault. He continued to talk to himself, "I worked hard to get a Porsche for my brother. You didn't contribute much. I'm giving you a chance to make amends."
As he spoke, he moved his fingers and forwarded several tasks to Vodka: "Here, these are the tasks for Big Brother. If it weren't for this car, I would have completed these tasks long ago. So these tasks are given to you. We will complete them separately and try to complete Big Brother's tasks before he returns home. Is that okay?"
You do the task and I rest, there's nothing wrong with us acting separately.
He felt that what Chu Ming said made sense, and since the two of them were to divide the work to complete the task, Vodka, who did not feel oppressed, readily agreed. He looked through the tasks and found that they were not too difficult, just five killing tasks and three trading tasks. These were what he usually did when following his elder brother.
"Okay, take me to the safe house where you picked me up before, and then hurry up and complete the mission." Chu Ming tugged at his dress, "I'll go take off my disguise."
After Vodka sent him to the door, Chu Minglin threw a small bottle to Vodka before getting off the car: "This is the water for removing disguise. You can use this face to complete these tasks. When you want to remove it, apply the water in the bottle evenly on your face. After 20 seconds, the disguised skin will float up - why do you have that expression, I'm not filled with sulfuric acid! Use it if you want, or not. If you don't want, it's fine to keep that face."
Upon seeing this, Vodka quickly put away the small bottle, stepped on the accelerator and drove away. However, to be honest, he still hasn't had time to see what his disguise looks like. When he called the outer members to pick them up, he felt that the member's eyes were strange... Could it be that Granburch gave him some strange disguise?
No, I have to go back and check.
——(*/?＼*)——
Chu Ming was changing his clothes while looking at today's points. When he saw Gin's car exploded, Vodka gave him a huge amount of points.
It’s really a huge amount. The points Conan offered when he faced Gin last time were not so many.
Chu Ming felt like he had discovered a new way to get rich.
If Gin's Porsche wasn't so hard to get, Chu Ming really wanted to blow him up again.
The points that Vodka provided him in the past few days made Chu Ming reluctant to let him go. Although Vodka looked ferocious on the surface, he was actually quite honest when getting along with him. He was always startled and his emotions fluctuated constantly. If Chu Ming hadn't turned off the notification sound, the ding ding ding notification sound would probably have annoyed him to death.
When Vodka finds out that he has been disguised as Nezha, he should make another contribution to him, right?
Such a Nezha
After removing his disguise, Chu Ming staggered home. He hadn't been home for a while and missed his sofa and the popular melodramatic TV series very much.
The safe house is good in every way except that there are too many cameras. These so-called safe houses should be safe from the outside, but every move inside the safe house should be under the control of the boss. So it is better not to watch this kind of bloody drama in it, so as to avoid the boss laughing at his aesthetic taste.
When Chu Ming reached the door, he paused. Something was wrong. Someone had come to the house!
Chu Ming immediately became alert. He should have never made any enemies with this face, so how could someone sneak into his house?
What's more, it was done in a very secretive way, with almost no trace at first glance. If Chu Ming hadn't bought the anti-theft sticker recommended by the system and stuck it on the door and broken it off, it would have been basically invisible.
Chu Ming accidentally found this anti-theft sticker when he refreshed the mall. It is pasted on the junction of the door and the door frame. It cannot be seen by the naked eye and can only be scanned by the system. Chu Ming bought a bunch of them and put one on every time he went out.
But this time, before he even entered the door, the sticker was already broken - who had been here?
Chu Ming knew that he couldn't stay at the door for too long. In case someone was watching this place, it would obviously tell others that there was something wrong with him.
He pretended to be looking for his keys while quickly checking everyone in his mind.
The only ones who know his identity in the organization are the boss, Gin, Vodka, Lafitte and Vermouth. Among these people, the boss can be ruled out, and Gin has gone abroad, so he is ruled out; Vodka does not have the courage or ability to sneak in silently; Lafitte is busy with Gin's mission and does not have the time; Vermouth knows that he wants to conceal his identity, and it is basically unlikely that he will be the one.
Then you are not a member of the organization.
On the Red side, Conan goes to school, and the others don't have this ability, so this group can be ruled out;
So - his identity was leaked or was under suspicion?
Is it the FBI or the police?
The FBI is unlikely to be the one, after all, they have only fought against them a few times. In addition, Shuichi Akai has not been aware of his own existence, so it is basically impossible for him to think that the person who disguised himself as him is Vermouth.
Excluding everything else, it can only be you——
——Bourbon, a professional burglar.
Chapter 338 Is it a bait?
Toru Amuro was hiding in the apartment building opposite. He didn't turn on the lights, opened the curtains a little, and observed Chu Ming's every move through a telescope.
The last time Granburch tracked down Shuichi Akai, he sent him a message saying that he and Shuichi Akai were involved in the case together. At that time, he arranged for someone to delay the order of Shuichi Akai's transcript, which disgusted him. However, he still distilled the key points from Granburch's long speech.
