Chapter 720 Absolutely Not Amuro Toru!
As evening approached, Belmode didn't stay for Dinner. Seeing Calvados come forward to greet her, she chatted casually with Calvados for a few words before leaving.
Thinking about how Raki's Room was piled high with Explosives, and how even when playing Chess and drinking Tea with Gin, they didn't forget to taunt each other, as if they would start fighting in the next second, she always felt this place was not very safe.
Chi Feichei and Gin didn't take it to heart.
Without needing to maintain politeness and courtesy, the two of them were very ‘restrained’ in their back-and-forth, exercising their Reaction Speed and ability to mock. This kind of feeling was actually not bad.
The Next Day night, Chi Feichei received a Phone Call from Kisaki Eri, telling him that the Case had been solved.
Unexpectedly, this time it was Mori Kogoro who solved the Case first.
Because according to Kisaki Eri's description, Mori Kogoro didn't fall asleep. He suddenly called Conan, her, and Mouri Ran to eat at the Victim's son-in-law's restaurant. Inspector Megure suddenly arrived in the middle of the meal, and then Mori Kogoro began Reasoning.
Before this, Mori Kogoro had actually arranged in advance for the Police to compare the Cooking Oil in the restaurant with the Oil Stain on the Weapon, confirming that the compositions were completely identical, and even the Evidence was nailed down.
Soon, the Mori Detective Agency's Phone Call also came in, and Mouri Ran repeated the Case Outcome again.
"...The Prosecution has already withdrawn the Accusation against Mr. Inoue and instead prosecuted Mr. Arima for intentional Murder. My Mother, to avoid suspicion, has also transferred the Case trial to another Lawyer to handle," Mouri Ran shared happily, "Prosecutor Kujo said when she came out that my Mother was really cunning, actually calling her own Old Dad for Help..."
This time her Old Dad had put on a good Performance in front of her Old Mom, and even made people feel that the couple's Affection was harmonious. Even if Mori Kogoro went to the Izakaya to drink again afterwards and angered Kisaki Eri, her Mood still couldn't be bad, after all, there was progress.
"By the Way, Brother Hichiji, are you back yet?"
"Not yet."
"Me, Old Dad, and Conan are going to Kanmon Straits tomorrow, probably departing at nine in the morning. My Mom said she has Other Things to handle and can't get away, what about you?" Mouri Ran asked, "Can you make it back?"
"The latest will be the Day after tomorrow." Chi Feichei was holed up in his Room making a Phone Call when he suddenly heard two knocks on the Room Door, and didn't rush to open the Door.
"That's really a Pity," Mouri Ran said with some Regret, "Then I'll ask Ai, if she wants to go Tourism before school starts, it would be good to go see it with us."
"Uh-huh."
After hanging up the Phone Call, Chi Feichei Looked at the Call Log for a moment before stepping forward to open the Door.
This Case was not considered difficult in the first place, at least that's what he thought.
Since it was known that the Murderer was someone else and the Weapon was stained with Cooking Oil, the Police would suspect the Victim's son-in-law who ran a restaurant sooner or later, and that Fellow was also the first Discoverer and Witness of the Case with the Apartment Manager, so they would need to investigate.
But it seemed that Conan was still a step slower this time.
His Teacher, once he encountered something he cared about, was like a completely different person, and every time there was an Opportunity to reconcile with Kisaki Eri, Problems would appear...
It's no wonder he was overthinking.
Gin didn't enter the Door, and Looked at the Mobile Phone in Chi Feichei's hand, "Another Case?"
Chi Feichei ‘Uh-huh’d and noticed a new Email, and opened it casually, "My Teacher solved it."
[I have already announced the termination of the Investigation and told the Intelligence Personnel responsible for the Investigation to go back to investigate the original Task. You can go over tonight. If there is no Movement again, this Action will End! ——Rum]
The Sniper had been in Concealment for almost a week, and he, Gin, and Vodka had also been staying at the Base for three days, but still no one approached the Apartment.
It was not in line with the Organization's consistent quick-battle Style for their group to stay together at Training Base No. 0331 for so long, and he and the people Ambush in the Apartment still had to wear Disguise Mask every day. Dragging it on was really not a good thing.
It seemed Rum didn't want to drag it on any longer.
Rum had two Purposes in sending this Information to the Intelligence Personnel:
First, if someone realized that the matter of those eight people should not be investigated slowly, so they had been inactive, then sending out this Information from Rum was implying ‘The Action Team had Other Things Anxious To Handle before, so they let you investigate slowly. Now the Action Team is back, they can use other Means to Solve it’, dispelling Suspicion, and at the same time strengthening the Pretense that Gin and others were not in Tokyo.
The second was to create the Pretense of Time being tight.
The Action Team was about to return, and the Intelligence Personnel had also lost their Qualification for Investigation. It would be very Troublesome to investigate again in the future. If they wanted to Start Doing something, they could only do it as soon as possible.
If no one took Action even like this, it didn't mean Rum had dispelled his Suspicion, it was just that this Action would come to nothing.
Gin didn't care about Solve a Case, only cared about committing a crime. Seeing that Chi Feichei had already Looked at the Email, he said, "We'll go over again at eleven o'clock tonight and stay until two o'clock in the Early Morning. If there's no Gain, we don't need to wait any longer!"
Before this, Chi Feichei and Gin were not idle either.
At 22:00 in the evening, Kir arrived in the Vicinity Street District and sent back News that there was no Activity of a large number of Suspicious Person.
At 22:15 in the evening, Chianti, Korn, and Calvados arrived at three Points in the High Place near the Apartment and began Lookout.
On the other side, Chi Feichei also sent an Email to Yingqu Yan Nan, who had replaced the Apartment Manager, to cheer up, pay attention to people entering and leaving the Apartment, and also pay attention to answering the Phone Call, and don't be Surrounded.
If a large number of Personnel Surrounded the Apartment, others could be ignored, but Yingqu Yan Nan and Curaçao must be Rescued.
At 22:21 in the evening, Outer Member drove the Car to the Street Corner behind the Apartment as a response for emergency evacuation.
At 22:47 in the evening, an Accident Situation appeared.
"Just now, three Cars suddenly drove in," Rena Mizunashi (Kir) stood in front of a Vending Machine, the Baseball Cap she was wearing was pressed very low, and she said in a low voice into the Earphone, "There's more than one person in the Car, I didn't see clearly, but there are at least twelve people."
She didn't know what was going on with this Action, but since she was asked to Lookout, then she would do her Lookout properly.
On the other side, Chi Feichei himself was driving, Following the Porsche 356A in front, still on the Road to the Apartment.
Chi Feichei listened to the Sound from the Earphone, and lowered his eyes.
Investigate it, and then let his Subordinates go to get it in groups to prevent Traps?
It seemed like a smart approach, but if it was Amuro Toru, he should be very clear about the Organization's Style. Not to mention a dozen people, even a hundred or two hundred, if they angered Gin, he would Explode them for you.
Moreover, sending a large number of Personnel over at This Time, in order for Yingqu Yan Nan and Curaçao in the Apartment to be able to evacuate, he and Gin could not possibly turn back, they would always have to do something to disrupt the Line of Sight and let those two people evacuate.
In the Situation where the Organization Member's Location was unknown, suddenly sending a large number of Personnel to Surround the Apartment would only result in heavy losses.
If Amuro Toru saw clearly that this was a Trap, but still insisted on Action, before this, he should have people Confirm the Situation in the Vicinity and in the Apartment, so as not to force Gin to go crazy.
In Other Words, either those were just people passing by, or it was someone else's Action.
Anyway, it wouldn't be Amuro Toru.
But this also didn't seem like something other Intelligence Agency could do. After all, Public Security was the Local Force, and Public Security wouldn't rush over rashly. Other Foreign Force were even less likely to do something like a firefight with a Criminal Organization in another country's territory, otherwise it would rise to the Level of International Diplomacy Conflict...
Gin was Silence for a moment, and didn't rush to tell Vodka to stop the Car, "Calvados, what's the Situation?"
"I've already Saw it, three Cars, they are indeed heading for the Apartment," Calvados's Sound came from the Earphone, "They've already parked in front of the Apartment."
"Did anyone get out of the Car?" Chi Feichei suddenly asked in a hoarse voice.
"No," Calvados said, "After parking and turning off the engine, there was no other Movement."
"Wait." Chi Feichei said.
"Standby in Original Place." Gin also said a Sentence, and temporarily cut off the Earphone Communication, "Vodka, stop the Car, then change Cars, and let Raki Come Over."
"Yes, Boss!" Vodka stopped the Car, and nimbly got out of the Car to find Chi Feichei who was parking in the Rear, "Raki, Boss said change..."
Chi Feichei had already gotten out of the Car, without removing the Car Key, and stepped forward to find Gin.
Vodka: "..."
Raki's Action was faster than him.
He hadn't even finished speaking...
Gin didn't get out of the Car, and waited for Chi Feichei to get into the Driver's Seat. After seeing Chi Feichei also cut off the Earphone Communication, he asked, "What's going on?"
"Wayne Walkerly didn't Discover any Suspicious Person entering the Apartment Before," Chi Feichei said.
"Curaçao and others also didn't have similar Discoveries..." Gin's Face darkened slightly, "It's a Test!"
"Uh-huh." Chi Feichei responded.
Since it was Judged that it was not Amuro Toru's Style, then it meant that Amuro Toru mostly didn't take Action, or hadn't taken Action yet, then another Problem had to be Considered - Yingqu Yan Nan could not be allowed to have an Accident.
Even if he was going to be caught, it was best to fall into the hands of Public Security themselves, so that it would be convenient for him to fish people out.
Other Faction would not do!
"Acting without Confirm Intelligence, it doesn't seem like those Fellows' Style! Let Rum Confirm this Matter," Gin connected to the Earphone Communication, "Calvados, describe the Characteristic and License Plate Number of the three Cars."
Chi Feichei listened to Calvados's description in the Earphone, and quickly typed, sending it to Rum. Seeing Gin Look over, he Nodded, indicating that it had already been sent.
Who was in those three Cars would be left to Rum to investigate.
Gin said ‘Continue to standby’ to the Earphone, and cut off the Communication again, before asking, "How many Bombs have you made in these two Days?"
Even if they were those Fellows' people, more than a dozen people dared to expose themselves first, how much did they look down on him?
"6."
Chi Feichei didn't tell the truth.
To be accurate, he made 8, and two of them were made using different production methods. He Summoninged Crows to quietly take them out of the Training Base.
After all, Amuro Toru had previously released News to him, luring the Organization to deal with the Shengxin Bank Manager, which had the Intention of Test the Situation of the Organization Action Member. Although the Action currently didn't seem like Amuro Toru, it was hard to guarantee that that kid wouldn't be fooled.
If Amuro Toru foolishly ran over, the Crow would put those two Bombs in a suitable Place and Explode them, creating chaos, and also making Gin wary, so that it would be convenient for Amuro Toru to run away.
"Brought them all, right?" Gin asked again.
"In the Trunk of my Car," Chi Feichei said.
Gin coldly laughed, his Gaze gloomy, "I have four here. Squatting for so long, we can't be busy for nothing. If those three Cars are really coming for us, then let's send them all to heaven!"
Chi Feichei: "Uh-huh."
See, anyone who has Knowledge of Gin or the Organization would not let people rush to the front of the Apartment to die rashly, so it was absolutely not an Action arranged by Amuro Toru.
Gin Speechless Glanced at Chi Feichei, and silently lit a Cigarette.
He felt this answer was very perfunctory!
