"Then why did they leave at that time?" Huibara Ai asked, forcibly suppressing her emotions.
"Because the first attack missed, and my uncle called the police..." Conan lost his voice as he spoke, his face turned extremely ugly, "You mean, they will attack again?"
"Of course, the organization has always been like this. You must be careful during this period. Fortunately, in order to protect Maori Kogoro, the police left some people to protect the hospital, so they will not take action for the time being. However, if the police have no clues for a long time, they will retreat-"
Haibara Ai made it clear that once the police retreated, the organization might take action at any time.
No matter how Conan guards against it, there is no reason to guard against thieves for a thousand days. The organization is in the dark and they are in the light, so they are already at a disadvantage.
Chu Ming added fuel to the fire and made matters worse: "Actually, there is another problem."
Seeing everyone's eyes shifting over, Chu Ming spoke faintly: "And the fingerprint on the chewing gum."
With just one sentence, Conan's expression changed drastically.
Chapter 620 Missing
"What do you mean, what chewing gum?" Dr. Agasa had not listened carefully just now, and was only concerned with confirming Conan's safety. Now looking at Conan's expression of despair, he asked with a blank face.
Huiyuan Ai pinched her palm tightly, trying to stay calm: "Did you wear gloves when you were sticking the gum?"
Conan shook his head awkwardly: "No, I was just anxious to help Rena Mizunashi solve the problem, so I just put the bug in there and pressed it against the wall. I thought I could get it back quickly, so I didn't even think about wearing gloves."
"Isn't that the end?" Dr. Agasa was so anxious that he was sweating. "What if Conan is found out?"
Chu Ming added faintly: "In fact, we can't find anything about Conan. We can only find someone who died in that organization."
"--Kudo Shinichi..." Conan continued, his tone dry and with a slight tremor.
Everyone present fell silent for a moment. Endless silence spread at the stairs. Conan even felt a buzzing in his ears.
Among the people present, there was also Haibara Ai who was as frightened as Conan.
Unlike Conan, she knew Chu Ming's true identity. When she saw Chu Ming mention this, she knew that the news that Kudo Shinichi was not dead yet had been exposed.
During this period, if someone revealed that Kudo Shinichi was Conan, it would be a disaster for them.
After a long while, Conan found his voice again. He forced a smile at the few people and said, "For the time being, you guys should not come here. The same goes for Huibara Ai. Let's not meet in front of others. This way, even if my identity is discovered, at least you and the doctor can be protected."
Chu Ming saw Conan speaking in an obscure way, as if he was explaining his last wishes, so he patted his head and said, "Don't worry too much. You and Kudo Shinichi appeared at the same time before, and it was to deceive Xiaolan. At least it can help you hide from others now."
Conan forced a smile and spoke to comfort Huihara Ai and the doctor: "Indeed, even if the organization knew that Kudo Shinichi was not dead, they would not know that Kudo Shinichi was Conan's. Don't worry too much."
This was indeed said to comfort them. After all, Conan himself knew very well that since the organization had found out that Kudo Shinichi was still alive, it was only a matter of time before they found out the relationship between Conan and Kudo Shinichi.
After all, the organization and Xiaolan are different.
In addition, even if the organization is unwilling to investigate, it would not be difficult to kill all the people related to Kudo Shinichi.
However, Conan does not intend to tell Haibara Ai about these things, so that at least she and the doctor can protect themselves.
Conan looked at the people in front of him and suddenly said, "Brother Chu Ming, you go back with the doctor and the others first. I'll go up and keep an eye on uncle."
Unlike everyone else, the doctor and Chu Ming are pure outsiders. He may not be able to protect himself in this matter, but he must at least get Chu Ming and others out.
"But we're here to see Detective Maori, and we haven't gone yet-" The Doctor hesitated.
"No need. Uncle might be being targeted by the organization right now. Doctor, you should take Haibara Ai and Chu Ming brother back first." Conan's expression was very serious.
Chu Ming did not refuse. He looked at Conan's back as he left, exchanged glances with Haibara Ai, and then followed the doctor back.
After arriving at the doctor's house, Chu Ming looked at the worried doctor, comforted him with a few words, and then went to Huibara Ai's underground laboratory.
Huihara Ai was already waiting there. When she saw Chu Ming coming down, she hurriedly asked Chu Ming for news.
"Brother Chu Ming, the organization..." She paused and continued, "Has the organization really found out..."
Chu Ming nodded: "Gin has confirmed that the fingerprint on the chewing gum is Kudo Shinichi's."
"The reason I was able to come here is because he sent me here to gather information, to see if there is any connection between Detective Maori and Kudo Shinichi, and whether the bugging was done by them in collusion with the FBI."
"Did you place a bug in Gin's Porsche before? According to Gin, the bug this time is the same as the last time. Plus, it was you who signed the death certificate of Kudo Shinichi, so he suspected that you and Kudo Shinichi were in collusion."
Chu Ming did not hide it. After all, even if he didn't tell her, Vermouth would find a way to pass the news to Conan later.
Then why doesn't he use it to earn points for Haibara Ai?
Haibara Ai was in a state of confusion at this moment, and she seemed to be distracted whenever she heard any news related to Gin.
Chu Ming took the opportunity to comfort her and tried to get some points: "Don't worry, since Gin sent me to investigate the news, I will tell them later that I found out that Kudo Shinichi and Shirley seemed to have gone abroad with the FBI."
Huiyuan Ai forced a smile: "I'm not worried about this-"
Before she finished her words, Chu Ming's cell phone suddenly rang.
——It’s vodka.
Hiss, why is Afu calling me at this time?
Is there anything you can't email?
Chu Ming made a gesture to Huihara Ai to keep quiet, then answered the phone.
"what happened?"
Vodka's voice was a little low, as if he was calling him secretly.
"Brother sent you an email an hour ago, why haven't you replied yet?"
?
Chu Ming silently put the phone in front of him and opened the email. He then found that Gin had sent him an email an hour ago, saying that he had a temporary task and had to rush back to the base for a meeting within half an hour. He also made several phone calls after that.
But at that time he was busy communicating with Conan and Haibara Ai, and the hospital stairs were a bit noisy, so he didn't notice the vibration of his phone at all.
In addition, he had no time to check his phone, so he left it alone until Vodka called him just now. The basement was very quiet, so quiet that the buzzing sound of the phone was particularly obvious, and he realized there was a call.
"I left my phone in my outer pocket and I didn't notice it because I was wearing so many clothes. Are you guys already here?"
Vodka's voice came quietly: "Of course, we have been waiting for you for half an hour. Come quickly, my brother's face is black."
Hiss, they have been waiting for so long, and now Gin, that petty-minded man, is going to keep an eye on them again.
[Originally there was only one chapter, but I just found out that a little cutie gave me a Xiu'er yesterday, so I added one more chapter. Thank you for your kindness??]
Chapter 621 Ireland
Chu Ming hurriedly jumped out of the car and ran into the base.
At this time, the office in the base was silent. Gin was flipping through the documents in front of him with a low mood. Even Vermouth did not touch Gin's beard at this time.
Everyone in the office heard the hurried footsteps outside approaching from afar and finally stopping at the office door. They couldn't help but cast their eyes on the door.
Chu Ming carefully stuck half of his head in and saw that at the table in the room, Gin was sitting at the main seat, Vermouth and the others were sitting on the left, and there was a lone man sitting on the right, with his arms folded across his chest and a defiant look on his face.
Hello, a new face.
Seeing that everyone's eyes were looking towards the door, Gin knew that Chu Ming had arrived without even turning back.
He tilted his head slightly and said calmly, "Why are you standing at the door instead of coming in?"
Chu Ming saw that although Gin's face was not very good, it was not as dark as Vodka described, so he felt relieved: "It's not that I didn't answer your call. I went to Maori Kogoro to get information. The ward was too noisy, so I didn't hear the phone ringing."
Gin didn't know whether he accepted Chu Ming's reason or not, and didn't say anything. Chu Ming walked in very consciously, looked at the seats of several people in the conference room, and finally thought about it and squeezed next to Gin.
Approximate location map
The main thing is that the stranger sitting on the right has a fierce look in his eyes and looks at Gin with disrespect. It is obvious that he doesn't get along well with Gin.
Although he usually quarrels with Gin, the action team still has to be united in facing the outside world.
Gin looked at Chu Ming who squeezed next to him, and moved slightly to the side to make some room for him.
"Who is this?" Chu Ming was the first to speak and break the silence. He felt that the person looked familiar, but he couldn't remember who he was for a while.
“This is Ireland.”
Ah! He remembered, it was the one who committed suicide with Tokyo Tower.
But when Ireland shows up this time, he shouldn't go against Gin. After all, Chu Ming didn't let Pisco get into trouble at the Beihu Hotel before. In this way, Ireland has no reason to hate Gin.
However, Ireland is also a core figure in the American branch's operations team, so it is normal for him to be dissatisfied with Gin.
Chu Ming looked at Ireland with some curiosity. He looked to be in his thirties or forties, with short light blond hair and sharp raised eyebrows.
Perhaps because he knew Chu Ming's identity, Ireland did not stand up to Chu Ming's gaze like he did to Gin. Chu Ming smiled and asked, "Does Ireland have a mission when he returns to China this time?"
Without waiting for Ireland to respond, Gin spoke directly: "The boss did issue a mission. The organization has sent many grassroots members to various important government departments as undercovers. This list has always existed in the intranet, but now, one of them has copied the list of all NOC members to the SD card without authorization and took it away. Regardless of whether he did it for self-protection, the organization will not tolerate such behavior."
Bourbon frowned. "To kill a NOC, do we need so many people? We even need to transfer people from the United States? With so many of us, we can't take care of a grassroots personnel?"
"It's not that simple." Gin tapped the table, pulled out a stack of information from the side, and motioned Chu Ming to pass it on, "Look at the information, Okakura Masaaki, the undercover, is dead."
Chu Ming hadn't opened the file yet, but when he heard what Gin said, he realized, "The person is dead, but the SD card is missing?"
Gin nodded slightly: "And his death was not an ordinary murder case. A smeared mahjong was found next to his body. Before him, there had been similar serial murders. The police are currently working hard to solve the case. We must find the murderer before the police and destroy the SD card."
Understanding the importance and urgency of the matter, Chu Ming nodded and volunteered: "Then I'll go. I still have some face in the police department, and I can also participate in this case by following Maori Kogoro."
Gin glanced at Ireland, clicked on the projection on the other side, and opened the file on the computer at the same time: "Matsumoto Kiyonaga, the management officer of the Metropolitan Police Department's Investigation Division 1, I have already caught him. Ireland, you are of the same size as him, so you should go over and take a good look at his behavior during this period. Vermouth will help you disguise yourself as him and sneak into the Metropolitan Police Department to pass on information to us."
"As for Granburch..." Gin glanced at Chu Ming, who was ignored because of his self-recommendation and now looked resentful, "You should still be responsible for the task assigned to you before. After all, this is a big case. The little mouse who escaped death may quietly show up. At the same time, you can also follow Maori Kogoro and assist Ireland at the critical moment."
Chu Ming tilted his head and thought about it, but did not refuse: "Okay, no problem."
Anyway, Ireland is quite strong, and he and Gin don't have any life-and-death feud this time, so he probably won't fly a helicopter and shoot down the Tokyo Tower.
Chu Ming flipped through the documents in his hand and roughly wrote down the details of the mission. After waiting for a while, he saw that Gin didn't say anything. He looked up in surprise: "That's it? So many people gathered together just to talk about this? Then couldn't they just send an email? I just left the base and they called me back, just for this meeting of less than ten minutes?"
Seeing that Gin looked unhappy, Vodka quickly tried to smooth things over for Gin: "Brother, you thought that no one has seen Ireland, so it would be convenient for everyone to recognize people during the meeting. Especially you, many codename members in the organization are abroad, and you know almost all the people in China..."
Zundu and fake toot?
Chu Ming's face was full of suspicion, and he obviously didn't believe it.
Ireland lowered his arms, which had been folded, stood up, looked at Gin, snorted and chuckled, and left the meeting room. Seeing this, Vermouth followed him.
Chu Ming looked at Bourbon who was sitting in the conference room. Seeing that his skin had obviously become darker, he teased, "Bourbon must have worked hard to find Akai Shuichi during this period. Did you get anything?"
Hearing Akai Shuichi's name, Bourbon's face suddenly darkened: "He must not be dead. I searched along the mountain wall and all possible landing points. Finally, deep in the forest east of the foot of Urawa Mountain, I found a small piece of torn clothes, which was very similar to the one Akai Shuichi wore before.
I also found some dried blood on the tree trunk, and after testing, it was confirmed to be Shuichi Akai's. So I sent people to conduct a carpet search around the blood, and found more than 20 places stained with blood.
