——Granburch and Shuichi Akai were involved in this case together.
That means he is among those passengers!
Toru Amuro asked the Metropolitan Police Department for the transcript sequence, but did not find the name Matsutake Yusuke, which was usually used by Granburr. This made him happy, as it seemed that he could get some clues about Granburr.
Eliminate those who do not meet the requirements one by one in the order of the records, and then arrange people to investigate and test them one by one.
Finally, Toru Amuro turned his attention to Fujino Tsumeaki, who has been very popular recently and has been following behind Kogoro Mori.
Combining the novels he read on the dark web and the messages Granburr sent him, Toru Amuro felt that he might have figured out Granburr's true identity.
He had investigated this Fujino Chuming, and had solved many cases following the recently famous Maori Kogoro. In particular, he was quite familiar with the little boy who had been rescued many times by Granburch before.
All these doubts made Toru Amuro more and more suspicious, so he sneaked into Chu Ming's house and searched it himself. Unfortunately, he found nothing. Before he had time to check thoroughly, his spy reported that he saw Chu Ming on his way home. He could only make some hasty preparations and finally left a few eavesdropping devices and left for the time being.
Toru Amuro looked carefully through the telescope but didn't find any clues. When he saw Chu Ming enter the room, he put down the telescope, lowered his eyes and fell into deep thought.
Chu Ming pushed the door and entered the room. He keenly discovered that there were several eavesdropping devices installed in the room. He suppressed the urge to remove them, sat down on the sofa, turned on the air conditioner and TV, and prepared to watch some TV series to relieve his stress.
however--
Looking at the air conditioner that was just buzzing but not working, Chu Ming couldn't help but clench his fists.
You're such a good guy, Bourbon. Look at your thick eyebrows and big eyes, how could you secretly mess with my air conditioner?
It was fine when I left, but broke after you came in?
Chu Ming realized what he was up to, gritted his teeth, opened the drawer and dialed the repair number.
Soon the doorbell rang, Chu Ming went to open the door, and it was indeed a familiar dark-skinned man with a gentle business smile: "Hello sir, I am Amuro Toru, the repairman you scheduled to come to your home to repair the air conditioner."
Okay, you can act, right? Who can’t do that?
Chu Ming quickly pushed open the door and invited him in. "Master, you're here very quickly. I just made a phone call and your company sent someone to repair it not long ago? With such efficiency, no wonder your revenue is so high!"
Amuro Toru walked into the room with a maintenance box and quickly went forward to repair the air conditioner: "Sir, you can go ahead and do your work. I will call you to come for inspection when I am ready."
Chu Ming shook his head. Who knows if Bourbon would secretly install a camera for him after he left? This kind of thing is hard to guard against, and it is not easy to remove it to maintain its image.
"It's okay. Mr. Amuro must be bored working alone. I can chat with you to relieve the boredom of work." Chu Ming smiled. "And I can secretly learn Mr. Amuro's repair techniques. Next time there is a problem, I can fix it myself. I wanted to disassemble it myself just now, but I didn't try it because I was afraid that I couldn't put it back together after disassembling it."
With this sentence, Chu Ming hinted that he might take apart the air conditioner in the future to make Toru Amuro hesitate and not dare to tamper with it. Otherwise, if it is really discovered that there is a bug or camera in the air conditioner, then Toru Amuro, who has repaired the air conditioner, will be the first suspect.
Toru Amuro is not stupid, to be exact, he is very smart.
He decisively gave up the idea of installing some small tools during the repair. After all, his plan this time was to keep encountering Chu Ming by chance, get close to him, infiltrate their group, and once he was sure whether Chu Ming was Granburch, he would defeat the enemy in one fell swoop.
In this way, even if Chu Ming is indeed Granburch, his actions will not alert the enemy; if not, it will not have any impact on Chu Ming.
Chu Ming stood behind Amuro Toru, feeling bored, and started to make small talk: "Mr. Amuro, your movements are really skillful, what do you do for a living?"
Amuro Toru turned around and looked at Chu Ming with an indescribable look: "I'm an air conditioner repairman."
Chu Ming realized that he had said nonsense, but since Toru Amuro had come to him, he must have investigated him in advance. He knew that he was a detective and still came to him so openly. This must have shocked him.
"Not really." Chu Ming's eyes scanned Bourbon like an X-ray, "Mr. Amuro, I'm a detective. Especially after studying with the famous Mr. Maori Kogoro for a period of time, I have a clearer grasp of some subtle clues."
"As a detective, Uncle Maori always taught me to be wary of burglars seeking revenge, so I was suspicious of you the moment you walked in. I didn't buy my air conditioner near here. I bought it at an electronics store in Ginza and had it installed at my home. I called the repair number at 3:12, but nine minutes later, at 3:21, you came knocking on my door."
"It takes much longer than ten minutes to drive from here to Ginza. In addition, after receiving the maintenance call, we have to arrange for employees to come over. All of this takes time. It is absolutely impossible to arrive in nine minutes. I followed you from the moment you entered the door. I didn't lead the way for you, but you walked to the location of the air conditioner that needed repair with a clear purpose. How did you know that the broken air conditioner was in the living room? What if it was in my study? And you wanted to send me away as soon as I entered the door. Do you want to do something in my house, Mr. Amuro?"
Toru Amuro looked at Chu Ming who was talking eloquently, his brows full of confidence, and his reasoning process and facts were almost the same.
But luckily he was prepared.
He completely avoided the traps in Chu Ming's questions and went straight to the heart of the matter.
"Sir, here's what happened. I am indeed a maintenance worker for Panasonic air conditioners. I came here quickly because I happened to be doing maintenance nearby, so the company assigned me directly. If you don't believe me, you can call the maintenance number you just called to confirm."
Chu Ming looked doubtful and called back.
After a moment, she apologized to Amuro Toru with a red face, at a loss: "I'm sorry, Mr. Amuro, I, I... I was rude, I..."
Chu Ming's face turned red as he imagined Conan's early image, perfectly portraying the embarrassment and helplessness of a detective who was completely confident in his own reasoning but was suddenly slapped in the face.
Toru Amuro looked at the embarrassed boy in front of him and didn't see any trace of Granburch at all. He couldn't help but wonder if this was a smoke screen deliberately released by Granburch.
He suddenly thought that Granburch was proficient in computers and had a wild imagination. Maybe he wrote the novel and deliberately put true and false information in it, using the detective named Fujino Chuming as bait to see if there was any undercover agent who would take the bait... and the last text message might have been used to test him.
Thinking of this, Amuro Toru broke out in a cold sweat. His actions today were completely a step into Granburch's trap!
No, don't panic, stay calm.
His actions today were completely reasonable. Everyone in the organization knew that he liked to take part-time jobs everywhere. He did work part-time at Panasonic Air Conditioning in the past few days. There was no flaw in this.
Without evidence, Granburch couldn't do anything about him even if he had suspicions.
Regardless of whether it was Granburch's smoke bomb or not, he had to get close to Fujino Chuming.
Being an undercover agent is like dancing on the edge of a knife. In order to obtain clues, some things are unavoidable.
However, he still needs to think about how to approach it specifically.
Chapter 339 Is it possible that this is your car?
After sending Toru Amuro out the door, Chu Ming looked back at the several eavesdropping devices that were particularly obvious under the system's markings, and silently opened the detective drama that he had collected but had never watched, and took out potato chips to watch the TV series while watching it.
Toru Amuro was speechless as he listened to the unique music of detective dramas and the sound of Chu Ming eating like a little mouse. Is this the daily life of a detective at home?
Chu Ming forced himself to ignore the bugs, thinking that Bourbon would only leave them there for a few days, and after making sure he posed no threat, he would sneak in and dismantle them.
Sure enough, after Chu Ming stayed at home for several days, Bourbon quietly removed the bug while Chu Ming was out buying snacks.
Chu Ming was flipping through the mall list. Now Bourbon had realized Fujino Chu Ming's identity. Although he had removed the bug, he would definitely arrange for his men to monitor this place. In case Granburch and Chu Ming could not appear at the same time, it would arouse his suspicion.
So Chu Ming came up with the idea of using simulated robots in the mall.
Looking at the robot on the sofa that looked exactly like him but a little dull, Chu Ming put it on the sofa, continued watching the TV series, set what to do at what time, and then secretly climbed out of the window.
Coincidentally, the day after Bourbon removed the bug, Chu Ming received a call from Vodka.
——Gin came back from the United States and asked Vodka to pick him up at the airport.
Although Vodka thought he could hide the truth, he was still a little scared when the time came. Although he was scared of Chu Ming, it was because they had caused this disaster together.
Originally, Chu Ming didn't want to suffer any trouble. If Gin found out, neither of them would be able to escape.
But when he thought that Vodka must have a lot of points beckoning him, he agreed and went with him to pick up Gin.
We took Vodka's car to a large base in the suburbs, where the organization's helipad was.
Generally, core members like Gin go abroad on the organization's dedicated planes, and the organization is equipped with different independent small airports across the country.
Gin got off the plane, looked around, and saw Chu Ming standing in front of the car waving at him wildly.
Gin walked over, took a look at the car, patted it with his hand, and smiled: "This car is nice. Where did you get this new Porsche?"
? ? ? ?
? ? ? ?
Chu Ming and Vodka looked at each other. At that moment, Vodka's points skyrocketed.
"Uh, brother, is there a possibility that this is your Porsche?" Chu Ming scratched the back of his hand, feeling a little guilty.
Vodka nodded frantically beside him.
Gin narrowed his eyes and looked at his two younger brothers. He gave up asking Granburch for the truth and instead fixed Vodka with a death glare. He stretched out his hand and held Beretta's chin. "Tell the truth, tell me."
Vodka felt like his back was almost soaked with cold sweat, and he stammered out half the truth: "Brother, your car was blown up by Rye, uh, no, by Akai Shuichi..."
Chu Ming added: "Yes, in order to prevent big brother from being sad when he comes back, Vodka and I searched for a long time before we found this one that looks very similar... We have completed the interior modification and everything else, big brother can move in right away~"
Vodka, who was not as eloquent as Chu Ming and could not lie with his eyes open, nodded repeatedly.
"Can Akai Shuichi go to Base No. 3?" Gin retracted his gun and pointed out the truth, exposing the two men's precarious excuses. "You guys drove out? Was it Granburch's idea?"
Gin looked calm on the surface, but judging from the points he got, Chu Ming felt that Gin was probably going crazy.
"Brother, it's like this, we can't just look at the surface of things, what is the focus of this matter, it's Akai Shuichi he - hiss, brother, you are launching a sneak attack!"
Chu Ming rolled over to avoid Gin's kick, still muttering to himself. He knew that he should just let Gin vent his anger, but they were both responsible for the trouble, so why should he be the only one to be beaten?
Damn it, big brother is biased!
[A very short chapter, because I joined the sheep pen, and I feel uncomfortable everywhere QAQ I lay in bed all day today, with a headache, sore throat and feeling uncomfortable all over. I got up at night and barely wrote a little. I can only update it according to the situation these days_(:з」∠)_]
Chapter 340 Drive It Away
Gin was forced to find someone to vent his anger on because his beloved car was damaged. In order to vent his anger a little more, he prioritized Chu Ming, who was now able to fight against him without losing.
But maybe he forgot because he was angry, Chu Ming's skills were indeed much better than Vodka's, but he was also much more talkative than Vodka.
Chu Ming has been muttering non-stop since the fight started. Now that he has become more skilled, it has become difficult for Gin to use force to force him to shut up.
He clearly wanted to vent his anger, but the anger kept getting stronger and stronger. Gin had no choice but to force Chu Ming back two steps, and then kicked Vodka who was standing next to him.
Vodka thought that with Granburch in the lead, he had survived this time, and was watching the fight between the two men with wide eyes through his sunglasses.
Especially when he saw that Granburch was now as skilled as Gin, he quietly raised Granburch's danger level - would no one be able to control this little lunatic in the future? He was said to be quite well behaved when his martial arts skills were low.
When Vodka was at the base, he heard Vermouth and Lafitte talking about something. They said that when Granburch was first assigned to Gin, he had just experienced a change and was a little taciturn, but he was serious in training and cautious in doing things. In short, he looked like a well-behaved and sensible child. The result was that he had become like this now, which must be because of Gin's reckless training!
But from Vodka's own point of view, a guy like Granburch is too obedient. It must be that Vermouth was deceived by his appearance and acting skills.
……
Just as he was thinking, Vodka suddenly felt a sharp pain in his abdomen and flew backwards several feet. When he came to his senses, he realized that his eldest brother's righteous iron fist was about to hit him. After all, he had stayed with Gin for so long, so he rolled over quickly and got up.
What's going on? It's my turn so soon!
Vodka hurriedly tried to fend off Gin's attack, intending to secretly take a look at Chu Ming's miserable condition, but he saw him standing aside without blushing, without breathing, and nothing happened to him. He even waved at him when he looked over.
? ? ? ?
Did Granburch tell my brother something?
Or was it that Granburch was discovered when he disguised himself as Big Brother to go on a mission last time?
But shouldn’t he be beaten? He was distracted, what drastic change happened? ! !
Full of doubts and confusion, Vodka fell to the ground with a bruised face.
Seeing that Gin still seemed to be angry, Chu Ming quickly stepped forward and grabbed his hand: "Brother, I think Vodka has realized his mistake. If you keep beating him, no one will drive us back. You've been tired for so long, you can't drive back by yourself, right? How about letting him atone for his crime?"
