Chapter 548: Openly repairing the plank road and secretly visiting Chencang

Soon, Chianti, Cohen and Vodka each caught up with the van of their target on their motorcycles.

Chianti reported over the radio: "Gin, I have caught up with the target."

"how is the situation?"

Chianti rode his motorcycle and observed the van lane: "The windows seemed to have been treated, and it was dark inside and I couldn't see clearly."

"Then use the method prepared before."

"learn."

Chianti held the handle with one hand and pulled out a pistol-like instrument with the other, scanning the entire carriage from beginning to end.

"Scanning completed, the image has been transmitted."

Gin looked at the screen, which showed a thermal image: "There are nine people in the car... huh? That basically matches the number of transmitters on the bomb."

Chianti reminded: "Gin, did you see the person lying there? Is it Rena Mizunashi? There is no signal from the transmitter on her."

Gin thought about it without saying anything. At this time, Cohen also completed the detection using the same method and transmitted the image over.

Like the first car, there were nine people inside, but none of them had transmitter signals.

Almost at the same time, Vodka also transmitted the picture over, but there were only two people in the car, the driver and the co-pilot, and both of them had transmitter signals on them.

Gin stared at the screen and fell into deep thought.

Chianti hadn't received any orders from Gin, so he urged impatiently, "Okay, Gin, make a decision quickly. If you keep dragging your feet, the sniper rifle on your back will fire automatically!"

Vodka also said, "Gil should not be in my car. Judging from the position of the transmitter, there are only two FBI people in the car. They are just bait. And if we follow this route, we will just go around and return to the hospital."

At this moment, a fourth person's voice interrupted the radio channel: "Sorry for the long wait, Gin. I finally found... Shuichi Akai's Chevrolet."

“Hmm?” Gin’s frozen expression finally relaxed a little. He held the intercom and said, “Vermouth… You put a lot of effort into it, didn’t you? Was it a direct order from that adult?”

Vermouth chuckled and said in a sweet voice, "I'm so sorry, I had anticipated this situation, so I had the motorcycle parked one kilometer away."

Gin wasn't interested in how she acted, so he asked, "So, where is Akai Shuichi's car?"

Vermouth replied, "We passed through Haido Park and have just entered Beika Town. The closest car should be the second car Cohen is following."

"The second car?" Gin pulled up the electronic map, which showed four light spots. Three of them represented three cars, and the fourth followed the middle light spot, driving in three directions. "According to the signal, it's about 200 meters behind."

Although Chianti hated Vermouth, he was still very happy about the information she sent him, and shouted excitedly: "That's no problem, Kiel must be in Cohen's car! Akai Shuichi must be escorting that car!"

In the Chevrolet, Conan, who was sitting in the passenger seat, looked in the rearview mirror and saw a blond-haired motorcyclist: "Long blond hair, is that Vermouth?"

Akai Shuichi snorted and laughed: "Finally he showed up. I thought the plan had gone awry."

Yuya, who was sitting in the back seat, put his hands behind his head and said leisurely: "How is it possible? Gin will definitely not bring ordinary members of the organization for such an operation. In this case, the only ones he can use are two snipers and Vodka. As for him, he must stay near the hospital to continue monitoring."

"In this case, the only ones who can come to see Mr. Akai are Vermouth or the mysterious Bourbon."

"Unless... there are other people around Gin that we don't know about."

"Then next, let's carry out the plan. I hope my lover can see through my intention." Akai Shuichi snorted and stepped hard on the accelerator.

Yuya suddenly said, "Lover? When did you start liking men, Akai-san? I have to tell Sister Mingmei about this."

Conan's ears perked up high, thinking to himself how could it be possible, such a cold and serious Akai Shuichi would not really...

Akai Shuichi was stunned for a moment and almost lost control of the steering wheel. Fortunately, he reacted quickly enough and caught it, then turned half a circle and overtook the car in front.

Shuichi Akai: “...” He accidentally said what he was thinking before.

Conan: Mr. Akai is like this, is it really...

Yuya suppressed his laughter and said, "I was just kidding."

Akai Hide said expressionlessly: "Hold on tight, we're going to speed up." Before he could finish his words, the car suddenly sped out.

Yuya didn't sit firmly and his arm hit the car door, and he couldn't help but let out a hiss of pain.

Akai Shuichi twitched the corner of his mouth.

Conan:...

Vermouth, who was following behind, saw this and shouted, "Akai Shuichi accelerated. He must have discovered that Cohen was following the second car!"

Chianti said coldly: "It's very clear now. The target is the second car. I'm going to change the route and meet up with Cohen."

Vodka: "Then I'll go over to Cohen too. It's just a waste of time to continue to tangle with the bait."

Cohen even started to pull out his sniper rifle: "If Akai comes, I will shoot..."

Gin suddenly said, "Wait a minute, Cohen, turn to the fork road and change your route."

Chianti shouted in dissatisfaction: "Why? You are not afraid of giving up on Kiel because you see Akai Shuichi?"

"No," Gin said coldly, "What we should track is Vodka's third car!"

"What?"

"why?"

Vermouth was puzzled: "Why?"

Gin said coldly: "If Akai follows me like this, he might really be fooled, but that guy won't use such arrogant methods as speeding to attract attention. These are all traps set for us."

Vodka was a little confused: "But brother, the back seat of the car I followed was empty, there were only two FBI agents in the front..."

"The one driving the car is indeed the FBI," Gin sneered, "and the one sitting in the passenger seat is Kiel!"

"They guessed that we would think that the unconscious Keel was lying on a stretcher in the back seat, so they simply took advantage of the situation and had Keel sit in the passenger seat with a transmitter, so that he would appear to be an FBI investigator from the outside."

Chianti also raised a question: "But wasn't the third car heading towards the hospital? Why..."

"I have to say this is a good move. Since they knew we found the hospital where Keel was but didn't move him immediately, it means they had nowhere else to go except that hospital. In other words, they pretended to move Keel away, but actually planned to secretly return to the original place. They believed that we would never investigate that hospital again!"

Vermouth was the first to understand Gin's analysis and sneered, "What a sneaky plan! These FBI agents are quite capable of coming up with such a method. It's amazing that you can see through it, Gin."

Chianti shouted excitedly, "Then I will change my route now and meet up with Vodka!"

Cohen: "Me too, going over there."

Vermouth, Chianti, Cohen are beginning to move towards vodka.

Soon, Kamal discovered that four motorcycles and a Porsche were following him.

His already gloomy expression suddenly became even gloomier.
