Chapter 422 Toru Amuro: This guy wasn’t killed by Conan?
"That's really too much trouble for you."
Yin Jiu did not reject Amuro Toru. Although this ambitious colleague looked mature and steady on weekdays, he actually had a lot of drama in his heart.
Haibara Ai is about to go undercover in the FBI, and by then she may need Toru Amuro to cover her.
Yin Jiu hoped that the two of them could get to know each other as quickly as possible, so he actively arranged a dinner.
"By the way, remember to bring some more food. Conan will come over to help in the afternoon."
The conversation between the two was very casual, and it was transmitted to the FBI through the earpiece of the bug, and Cameron immediately became alert.
"It's Bourbon! He's about to make contact with his target! Should we take action?"
"No, there's nothing wrong with what he said." Akai Shuichi rubbed his brows, "It seems that Bourbon has evacuated the task force, and the rest of us are safe for the time being."
"In this case, will Judy continue to contact Vermouth?" James held the coffee in his hand and shook it slightly.
The Black Organization's cessation of its pursuit of them also means that the other party's clues have been cut off. Given the Black Organization's cautiousness, they will definitely find another way to dig out their members.
At this time, Judy appears as bait, and Vermouth, disguised as Tomoaki Aida, will never let go of such a target.
The benefits are of course obvious. At least they can keep track of Vermouth's movements at all times. The risks are also great. If they accidentally reveal any flaws, they may face a new round of pursuit.
"Let me go." This time, Shuichi Akai took off his headphones.
Judy hated Vermouth, and it was no secret. If it was just a pretense in the past, she could have pretended well.
But if the more sensitive Yin Jiu and Amuro Toru, who has an old grudge against the FBI, get involved, Judy might be completely overwhelmed by the instigation of the two.
"In this situation, Vermouth may not take the bait, but we have clues about their target." Akai Shuichi tapped the eavesdropping device with his finger. "Instead of letting Judy take action, we actually have a better candidate for contact."
"You mean Grace Ahara?"
"No, it's Yin Jiu." Akai Shuichi hung the headphones around his neck again. "Yin Jiu is our protection target, and his mother is our investigation target. Although the original plan was to target Vermouth, now that everyone is together, it is not impossible to adjust the plan nearby."
"Indeed, the most interesting thing is that Yin Jiu mistook Shirley for Grace Ahara." Cameron clapped his hands. "This way, while protecting Yin Jiu, we can also monitor Shirley. If there is any unusual movement by the people in that organization, it will definitely not escape our eyes."
"But Xiuyi, how do you plan to get close to Yin Jiu?"
It's no wonder that James was worried. Among their group, only Shuichi Akai had met Yin Jiu as an FBI agent.
Yin Jiu definitely recognized Akai Shuichi's face, and the FBI, which was far away in the United States, showed up in Japan, and looked like they were deliberately trying to get close to each other, which made it hard not to think too much.
"I have my own way of doing this."
-
So Yin Jiu and Amuro Toru were on their way back to the office with Conan.
"Brother Yin Jiu, did you hear any noise?"
Conan would subconsciously pay extra attention when facing Toru Amuro. At this moment, he looked towards the corner of the alley following the sound, with confusion in his eyes.
"Hmm?" Yin Jiu also stopped and listened for a few seconds, then said frankly, "It seems like there is movement, it sounds like a canine."
It must be a wounded human being.
Yin Jiu didn't want to care about this kind of thing at all. The sun hadn't set yet, and with his physique, he would feel uncomfortable all over even if he held an umbrella.
"But it doesn't sound like it to me." Conan obviously failed to understand Yin Jiu's wishes, and instead tried to identify it more carefully.
After listening for a while, the voice became increasingly subtle and low, causing Conan to suspect that he was having an illusion.
However, with the mentality of saving people even if it is not possible, Conan turned around and walked in just before the three people were about to turn the alley in silence.
"Hey! Don't run around!" Toru Amuro was paying attention to Conan, and the moment he saw the unlucky kid running away, he subconsciously tried to rescue him.
However, when he turned a corner, Toru Amuro saw a brown-haired young man lying on the ground.
His heart skipped a beat and he almost kicked the man away, but he was soon surprised to find that the man was not killed by Conank!
The young man with a strong desire to survive raised his hand with difficulty and grabbed Conan's trouser leg.
"..Help, help me call the police! Someone is...robbing!"
"Are you sure it's a robbery? In broad daylight?" Amuro gritted his teeth. Has the Japanese Metropolitan Police Department been so passive and lazy? They actually let citizens be robbed and beaten to the ground on the street at noon?
"Are you okay?" Even Amuro Toru came over, so Yin Jiu had no choice but to move slowly over with an umbrella. Then he stretched out his hand in front of the "unlucky guy" on the ground and said, "Can you still get up? Do you want to call an ambulance?"
"No, I'm just a little dizzy. I'll be fine after sitting for a while." Akai Shuichi, who had successfully disguised himself as Okiya Subaru, raised his head confidently.
Yin Jiu: “…”
Toru Amuro: "..."
This person's face... Why does it look familiar?
Toru Amuro fell into reminiscence in silence.
Yin Jiu even retracted his hand directly, "Then you get up by yourself."
"Well, thank you."
The atmosphere fell into an eerie silence.
Why is it different from what he thought?
Shuichi Akai sat on the ground and felt his butt a little cold.
Conan's trouser legs were pulled up, and he now carefully grasped the waistband of his trousers and kept a distance from the young man.
Being robbed on the street is not common in Japan. It sounds tragic, but if you look closely at this guy's body, he is completely fine.
What an unlucky yet lucky young man.
Conan muttered to himself, he was used to seeing strong winds and waves, so an injury like this, which was barely even a scratch, seemed not worth mentioning at all.
No, this is a robbery of a heinous nature!
Conan shook his head.
-
The process of solving a case is much simpler if it does not involve casualties.
"There are no witnesses, so we can only check the surveillance cameras on the street one by one." The police officer in charge of the case said with a serious face. "Mr. Okiya, have you lost any important property?"
"Well... it's mainly cash, because I was originally planning to go out to buy groceries and didn't bring anything else."
"That's easy then. If it's just money that's missing, we can basically rule out the possibility of someone we know committing the crime." The police officer in charge of recording tore off a receipt and handed it to Subaru Okiya.
"Check the phone number. We will intensify our efforts to investigate the surrounding areas during this period. If we catch the suspect, we will notify you immediately."
"Oh, OK, thank you." Akai Shuichi, who had rich experience in fraudulent acts, took the receipt with a simple and honest face. Then he grabbed the corner of his clothes in embarrassment and said in a hesitant voice, "Can you please solve the case quickly? My work-study salary has not arrived yet. If I can't get the money back, I will starve."
"Did you take all the money out of the house?" the police officer looked up in surprise and asked, then came to his senses.
That's not right. He shouldn't be in charge of such matters!
"I'll try to be quick, but to be on the safe side, you'd better borrow some money from your friends." The young-looking police officer hinted at Yin Jiu and the others with his eyes, with a businesslike attitude, and his fingers subconsciously covered his purse.
And Okiya Subaru, who "followed the advice", naturally turned his gaze to Yin Jiu and the others with hopeful eyes.
Appropriately asking for help can quickly bring people closer together. This phenomenon is called the Franklin effect.
Shuichi Akai once used this method to easily gain the trust of Akemi Miyano.
However, when Shuichi Akai focused his attention again, things were not quite as he had imagined.
Conan's eyes were the most innocent, revealing a hint of helplessness.
Most kids of his age are penniless. After his body shrank, his pocket money was halved. The living expenses that were originally deposited directly into his account were directly transferred to Kogoro Mouri's account.
Kudo Shinichi is really short of money, and Bourbon is simply stingy.
The corner of Shuichi Akai's mouth twitched. This stingy guy seemed to have never seen Bourbon spend money before. He was the only one who had to eat the organization's funds.
The only one left was Yin Jiu... Yin Jiu was distracted.
