Seeing the faces of several people changed, Hattori realized that what he had just said was ambiguous, and hurriedly explained: "Uh-this, it's like this, actually, Conan has already left! He said that he was really not feeling well, so he took the bus back first. Hahaha, I forgot what he told me, hehe."
"What? Conan took the bus alone? He's a kid and he has a bad cold, how can he walk such a long distance?" Xiaolan was a little anxious and frowned.
Hattori scratched his head, looking up and down but not at them, and began to make up excuses: "Yeah, he told me before we went to the village office. Oh, why did I forget? Haha, my memory seems to be not so good recently. He said that it would be troublesome if the cold was delayed for too long, so he went back first."
Xiaolan asked worriedly: "But even if he goes back to the detective agency alone, there is no one to take care of him."
"Uh - actually, he went to the house of that doctor named Agasa..." Hattori was so anxious to help Shinichi cover up the lie that he was sweating and scratching his ears.
Maori Kogoro stared at Hattori with a knowing expression, then glanced at Kudo Shinichi and snorted twice: "There is no cell phone signal here. When we get to the hotel, we can use the landline phone to call Dr. Agasa and find out."
Watching several people escorting Kudo Shinichi away, Chu Ming sat on a treetop in the distance, swinging his legs leisurely, looking over here from afar with a smug smile on his face.
This time, with his help and Makoto Yada's own disguise, even Xiaolan didn't notice anything unusual at first.
When he took Makoto Yada away, through a few days of intensive training, he made his behavior very similar to Shinichi Kudo.
Under the threat of a gun pointed at his head, Makoto Yada unleashed unlimited potential and learned most of Shinichi's little tricks in just a few days.
Since there is no problem with the prelude of this play, the formal performance is about to begin.
Chapter 649 Hypnosis
When Gin walked into the living room, he saw Chu Ming lying on the sofa with his legs crossed, watching TV and pinching the strawberries on the table and putting them into his mouth.
Seeing him so lazy, Gin felt itchy. He went forward, picked him up and sat him down, and asked, "When are you going to leave?"
Chu Ming seemed to have no bones. He fell back as soon as he was pulled up: "Why are you in such a hurry? It's boring to go back anyway. Let's have some fun here."
Gin frowned and urged coldly: "Aren't you going to deal with the remaining group of people in the warehouse?"
Being urged to go to work by the model worker, Chu Ming sighed faintly and slowly sat up on the sofa: "Have the group of people that Vodka brought here arrived?"
"We're here. They're all in the place where the group of people originally made the drugs." Gin asked in a deep voice, "Are you planning to hand them over as the masterminds behind this?"
Chu Ming nodded: "Since I chose to call the police, someone has to play the bad guy. We killed all those people last time. It's impossible that there will be no one when the police come to investigate. We can hand them over and say that the masterminds have all run away, and let the police find them themselves."
After thinking for a while, Chu Ming continued to ask: "Did they trick him here using the method I told you? Did they not arrest him directly by force?"
Through the computers of these fake wines, he confirmed the contact information of a dozen drug gangs that often sent experimental subjects here, and then asked Vodka to disguise himself as his fake wine substitute. After contacting them, he tricked all of them over, saying that they all met the requirements of the organization and could become cadres of the organization.
The group of people had no doubts at all. When they thought about how they could take drugs at a low price in the future, they happily followed Vodka. They never thought that they were here to take the blame for someone else.
Gin reminded him: "You can have fun, but don't expose the existence of the organization. This is also the request of the boss. The organization is not suitable to be exposed to the police right now. If you want to call the police, you can hand them over to a group of idiots who have overdosed on drugs."
Chu Ming paused. He had not thought about the problems that would arise after he called the police. When Gin reminded him of this, he suddenly realized it.
Yes, this group of people were swindling people outside in the name of the organization, but those who knew the truth were all killed. If the police were called and the scapegoats all confessed, the blame would be entirely on the organization.
If the police really start tracking and investigating the organization, wouldn't that be them inviting the devil into the door?
No, no, this won’t work. We have to think of a new way.
After re-discussing the strategy with Gin and the others, Chu Ming went straight to Vodka, asked him to change into the disguise of 'Vodka 2.0', and then locked himself in the cage again.
Chu Ming was locked in the same cage with a listless look, as if he had been hungry for days. After the warehouse door was closed, Chu Ming looked around and found that most of the people in the cage who were still conscious had been packed up and taken away. Those who were left now had severe brain damage after taking a drug overdose and were obviously stupid.
After confirming that there were no conscious fish in the warehouse, Chu Ming began to bang the cage desperately to attract the attention of the person on duty today.
Coincidentally, the person assigned to guard today is an acquaintance.
It was Hino, the taxi driver who had taken him into the taxi that day.
Holding an electric baton, he opened the warehouse door while cursing. He locked onto Chu Ming's position and walked towards him with a fierce look on his face: "Asshole, why are you knocking for no reason? Do you want to die?"
Chu Ming waited for him to get closer, and the moment he poked in with the electric baton, he suddenly grabbed his wrist and pulled it inside with force. At the same time, he grabbed his hair with his other hand and knocked it against the cage. The man who had been so arrogant just now suddenly collapsed limply.
After the man fell unconscious, Chu Ming searched the cage key from him, then threw Hino on the ground, opened the cage and walked out.
There are surveillance cameras in the warehouse, and the police will definitely check it out, so Chu Ming made every effort and knocked on each cage, trying to wake up the people in the cages, but unfortunately, no one could respond to him.
He could only slip out of the door quietly with a look of helplessness on his face.
There were not many people assigned to guard the warehouse where the experimental subjects were held. Vodka used the excuse that the experimental subjects were weak and only assigned Hino to guard the warehouse.
Because of this, Hino felt that everyone on his team stayed in the drug factory to learn how to make drugs, but he was not valued and was sent here to be a security guard. He was so angry when he heard Chu Ming shouting that he wanted to vent his anger by beating him up.
When Chu Ming arrived at the gate of the drug factory, he saw Lafitte walking out with a refreshed look on his face.
"Everything is fine?"
Lafitte was obviously a little excited when he heard Chu Ming's voice: "I haven't tried to hypnotize so many people in a long time. Although the willpower of these poisonous insects is almost non-existent, hypnotizing them is not challenging, but the feeling of being able to accomplish it in one go without any effort is really great. Remember to find me next time something like this happens!"
Chu Ming looked at the overly excited Lafitte and couldn't help but pour cold water on him: "It's simple, but don't let it get you into trouble. Are you sure everyone has been hypnotized?"
"You look down on me?" Lafitte was immediately anxious when he saw that he was being questioned. "How could I fail against these people whose brains were almost destroyed by drugs?"
"When will they wake up?" Chu Ming estimated the time. "If they don't wake up now, they will miss the next scene."
"It will be almost done. Three minutes at most." Lafitte looked at the time, then at Chu Ming, "I'm curious, how did you say that Tong Gin played a role in this scene?"
Chu Ming looked innocent: "I can't help it. It wouldn't be enough if we don't count him. Besides, he doesn't have much role to play. At most, he just wears the face of 'Gin' and hurriedly gets in the car to escape from here. He doesn't need to do anything else."
Lafitte gave him a look of well done, and even if there wasn't much of a scene, just the fact that Gin agreed to bear the face of an imposter was terrifying enough.
Chu Ming originally planned to lure Conan over, and then play a game with him here in the identity of Granburch. In the end, Chu Ming, who was captured as a test subject but escaped unexpectedly, would rescue him. At the same time, he would call the police to report that someone was making drugs here, in order to increase the favorability of the red team.
Unfortunately, Gin reminded him that if he did that, the existence of the organization could no longer be concealed, so he had to temporarily change the plan and let Lafitte hypnotize the group of people who were deceived and replace the Black Organization in their minds with Mud.
Anyway, in the end, when the police investigate, they will either find nothing and the Mud Society will be blamed; or they will only find out that this is a group of drug dealers who stole the name of the Mud Society to do evil, and the organization will be perfectly invisible in this link.
Chapter 650: One Step Faster
But this alone is far from enough.
After all, his main purpose is not just to get rid of the organization, but to make a big move in front of Conan.
Alas, what a pity. It's the boss's fault for making such a weird request. The name of the organization is obviously open and transparent among the upper echelons of various countries, otherwise why would there be so many undercover agents running to the organization? In the end, he still wants to deceive himself and think that the organization is hiding well in the shadows of the world.
Just as Chu Ming was thinking about it, Lafitte sent a message saying that he was ready and would start the show as soon as Chu Ming came in.
So Chu Ming began to "quietly" sneak into the drug factory, and deliberately exposed a flaw and made some noise.
Then when Lafitte, disguised as 'Irish', led people to surround him, he took action to deal with the people who surrounded him one by one.
Lafitte hid in the innermost part. After Chu Ming knocked down all the deceived drug dealers, he silently took out a remote control from his pocket and loudly threatened Chu Ming to retreat.
Hearing his shout, his 'accomplices' came out to support him, and before they drove away, Lafitte decisively pressed the bomb button.
This is a bomb they modified. It makes a loud noise but has little power. Even if you are at the center of the explosion, you will not be hurt.
It is also very flammable and will burn wildly once it comes into contact with combustible materials.
In this way, the drug dealers will inhale a large amount of toxic smoke at the first moment when they are in the drug factory. Even if they are not stupid, they will be close to dementia.
*
On this quiet night, a huge explosion sounded from one end of the village to the other, waking up the sleeping villagers.
When they walked out of the house, they found that there was a raging fire near the forest.
The fire spread wantonly in the silent night, and it seemed as if a long red dragon was dancing in the sky. As thick smoke billowed up, the air was filled with the smell of burning. Even the night sky was dyed orange-red by the fire.
"Fire, fire!" The villagers ran out of their homes, thinking that there was a fire in the forest. They called the police and rushed over to see what was going on.
Conan, who was hiding in the forest, naturally noticed the flames rising into the sky, and hurried over to see what was happening.
He had been strolling around the edge of the forest recently, so he arrived much faster than the people in the village.
When he arrived, he found Chu Ming wearing a simple mask, dragging a few people who had fainted, and rushing out of the burning house with a bent over. He threw the people to a place far away from the fire, where there were already a lot of people gathered.
"Brother Chu Ming?" Conan had grown bigger after taking the antidote made by Haibara Ai. He was wearing the costume of the Death God Luo that Makoto Yada placed in the cabin. He looked like a savage who had lived in the mountains for a long time.
"Shinichi? How did you suddenly grow bigger? And you're wearing this? Cosplay?" Chu Ming pretended to be surprised and turned around with a look of anxiety and worry. "Forget it, there's no time to talk about this. Hurry, find a mask and put it on. What's burning in here are drugs!"
"What?" Conan's eyes widened suddenly, "Then Brother Chu Ming, call the police!"
"I was captured by them. I don't know where they threw my phone." Chu Ming covered his mouth and nose and ran forward with him, "Let's go to the village to call the police."
Conan ran a few steps, then stopped suddenly when he remembered the haters all over the village and a man named Makoto Yada who was pretending to be him and lurking around Xiaolan and the others: "No, I can't go over now."
Chu Ming pretended to know nothing and looked at him strangely: "What do you mean? Why can't we go there now? Are you also investigating this incident? Are the people in the village not good people?"
"No, it's like this--" Conan used brief language to describe to Chu Ming how he was led into the mountains by a letter from Makoto Yada, and then locked in a small dark room, and some clues found in the small dark room.
All these clues indicate that Makoto Yada has had plastic surgery to look like him and intends to do something with his identity, so he decides to remain unchanged and hide in the dark to see what Makoto Yada is trying to do.
Chu Ming raised his hand and grabbed Conan's collar, stopping him from leaving: "Wait, you can't go back to the forest today. The wind is blowing towards the forest tonight. The smoke produced by burning these drugs is poisonous. If you go back, you will just be taking a lot of drugs! This is not a joke."
Chu Ming looked around, picked up a burnt charcoal from the ground, pulled out a handful of leaves and squeezed out the juice, mixed it casually, then lifted Conan's face and applied it on him, muttering to himself as he did so.
"The materials are limited, so just make do with it. I'll modify your face shape and cover your eyebrows and eyes with makeup, and you put on the mask yourself, so that at least people won't know you are Kudo Shinichi at a glance. Fortunately, I learned a trick from Sister Yukiko before. You can take a detour and book a room in the hotel first. If there is a fire here, the uncles will definitely come to put out the fire, and you won't meet each other..."
While he was busy, Chu Ming heard noisy footsteps in the distance and knew that someone was coming this way. He quickly stopped Conan and signaled him to leave quickly.
Before leaving, Conan urgently took off the legs of his glasses and stuffed them into Chu Ming's hands: "Brother Chu Ming, take this with you!"
Although he couldn't be there, he still wanted to hear the news.
Chu Ming looked at Conan blatantly putting the bug made by Dr. Agasa in his hand, his mouth twitched, and he put it in his pocket: "Okay, you can leave now."
After Conan left, Chu Ming casually smeared the remaining black ash on his face a few times, then walked towards the crowd and shouted a warning.
"Wait, don't come over here, call the police first, everything burning in here is drugs!"
Everyone stopped in fear and looked at each other.
Maori Kogoro pushed through the crowd and squeezed to the front, ready to ask about the situation: "What's going on - Chu Ming? Why are you here?"
Chu Ming took a breath and said, "Uncle Maori, you're here too. That's great. Hurry up and call the police and evacuate the crowd. Luckily the wind is blowing towards the forest. There's a drug factory inside. The leader of the drug dealers detonated a bomb when he was escaping. The moment the bomb exploded, it started to catch fire and affected the surrounding buildings. When you call the police, make sure the firefighters wear their gas masks!"
It was difficult to get a cell phone signal here, so He Ye made a quick decision and ran back to borrow a phone from the nearest house.
Xiaolan turned around to help the village police evacuate the crowd. Makoto Yada remembered what Chu Ming once told him, that Kudo Shinichi loved Xiaolan very much, so he followed Xiaolan like a love-brained person, and accompanied her to persuade the gathered villagers to go back.
Hattori originally reached out his hand to call Shinichi to find the truth together, but when he saw him following Xiaolan without looking back, he scratched his head in confusion, but he became happy in an instant.
It's just right that Kudo is not here. If I can understand the incident clearly before he comes back, wouldn't that make me one step ahead of him?
Chapter 651 He also wants to see
Hattori turned around and continued to squeeze next to Maori Kogoro: "Brother Chu Ming, why are you here, and how do you know that what is burning here is drugs?"
