[The following is a news report: A major shipwreck occurred yesterday afternoon in the waters near Tokyo Bay. A small to medium-sized passenger cruise ship suffered a sudden explosion in the area, resulting in serious casualties... As of 10:00 AM today, one person is still missing...]

The blond, dark-skinned young man turned off the TV with a frustrated expression. His eyes were bloodshot and he looked haggard, clearly having not slept all night.

When Morofushi Kagemitsu pushed open the door, he was immediately hit by the smell of smoke filling the room. He frowned slightly and looked at his childhood friend with concern in his eyes.

"Zero, you..."

He didn't finish his sentence before Furuya Rei stubbed out his cigarette, the ashtray on the coffee table overflowing with cigarette butts: "So, did that captain say anything?"

Morofushi Kagemitsu walked to the window, opened it to let the smoke dissipate, and turned to Furuya Rei, saying, "She said that Vermouth contacted him privately, and the bomb was transported onto the ship through him."

“However, he confessed that he didn’t know the box contained a bomb beforehand; Vermouth just gave him money to take the stuff onto the ship,” the black-haired youth added.

A hint of mockery flashed across Furuya Rei's face, clearly indicating his disbelief in the captain's words. He clasped his hands together, elbows resting on the table, and said with a deep, unfathomable gaze, "Hiro, do you believe what he said?"

Morofushi Kagemitsu pinched the bridge of his nose, looking slightly tired, and said, "Zero, do we really have to dwell on this issue now? Karasuma Renya is out of danger this morning, and the doctor said he should wake up by tomorrow at the latest."

He paused and continued, "Vermouth has disappeared without a trace and has most likely left Japan. Gin and Vodka have also gone missing at sea. The remaining members of that organization have either been captured or killed during the pursuit for resisting arrest."

Morofushi Kagemitsu stood by the window with his arms crossed, calmly pointing out the problem they were facing: "Based on the previous evidence and Miyano Shiho's testimony, we can at most convict Karasuma Renya. We need more crucial evidence for the rest."

"Moreover, the network of relationships involved in the drugs developed by that organization is too extensive, which makes it difficult for us to collect evidence."

Rei Furuya frowned slightly. He wiped his face and went into the bathroom without saying a word to wash his face with cold water. He came out with wet hair and a wet collar.

He grabbed his coat from the back of the chair, put it on as he walked toward the door, and turned to Morofushi Kagemitsu, saying, "Let's go."

Morofushi Kagemitsu put down his hand and walked over. The two left the Public Security Bureau and entered the Metropolitan Police Department one after the other. They then went directly to the interrogation room where the captain was being held.

Safe house at a pier in Tokyo Bay.

Vodka, disguised as an ordinary office worker, returned to the safe house in his apartment building, carrying a briefcase and a bowl of soba noodles. He unlocked the door and turned to meet Gin's sharp gaze from the shadows in the corner, as well as Beretta with a gun pointed at him.

Vodka tossed his briefcase aside, placed the buckwheat noodles on the table, and began to recount the information he had gathered during his outing that day.

Gin emerged from the shadows, ate the slightly soggy buckwheat noodles he had brought back with gusto, and then took out a first-aid kit from under the table to treat his injuries.

Yesterday, after witnessing the cruise ship explode and sink at sea, Gin and Vodka followed far behind Bourbon, the Japanese policeman, and thus saw the unconscious Karasuma Renya and the survivor Sherry.

He even saw Vermouth, but that woman was too cunning and shot him in the back to attract the attention of the Japanese police so that he could escape.

In the chaos, Gin shot and hit Ray, but he was also shot by Bourbon. He also saw the undercover agent Scotland, who should have been dead, on the ship.

Realizing he had been deceived, Gin felt a surge of anger. He quickly thought of Bourbon Rae and Suz, who had been chasing Scotland. Now that Bourbon Rae had been confirmed as an undercover agent, Suz's identity was probably not clean either.

"That idiot Rum!" Gin still curses him fiercely when he thinks about it now.

Vodka, who was reporting the situation, stopped and looked at Gin's gunshot wound on his side, shrinking back in fear.

"Big brother, the organization's headquarters has been wiped out by the police. Cohen and Chianti were reportedly shot dead on the spot for resisting arrest. The rest have been arrested, and now only some low-level members remain."

Vodka swallowed hard, still shaken, and continued, "Rum was also arrested. I heard he disguised himself and worked at a sushi restaurant, which is why there are videos and photos circulating online."

"Big brother, what do we do?" The organization's ship has been destroyed. The helmsman and a bunch of deputies have all been imprisoned. Now, only a few cats and the two of them are left outside.

The destruction of the organization was something that Vodka had never dared to imagine before, after all, the organization was a behemoth that had existed for so long.

Vodka also feels a sense of unreality, unable to believe that they have fallen to such a desperate state.

The only thing that gave him some comfort was that Gin was still by his side.

With a leader to rely on, Vodka was less confused, but he listened to Gin even more than before, which is why he went out to inquire about information today.

After applying the medicine and putting on his black overcoat, Gin, with a cigarette dangling from his lips, said in a cold voice, "Let's give them a big gift before we leave."

Vodka paused for a moment, then grinned cruelly: "Okay, boss."

...

That afternoon, a heinous attack occurred at the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department, resulting in the deaths of a high-ranking government official, a Metropolitan Police Department inspector, and three Metropolitan Police Department inspectors, with dozens injured.

-

"It must be Gin! He didn't take the opportunity to leave Japan; instead, he planned the attack!"

After working non-stop for two days, the blond, dark-skinned youth paced back and forth in his room like a caged beast. The attack that occurred at the entrance of the Metropolitan Police Department made him feel like a firecracker that could explode at any moment.

Sitting on the sofa, Morofushi Kagemitsu looked tired. The intense mental strain made him appear somewhat listless. He pinched the bridge of his nose, picked up the coffee on the table, took a sip, and tried to perk himself up.

He glanced at his childhood friend and said, "Zero, now we know Gin hasn't left Japan, but we don't know if he'll leave next. The destruction of the Black Organization has obviously made Gin less restrained, and he's become bolder in his actions."

The attack was a slap in the face to the Japanese police, as the recent crackdown on the black-clad organization had put the entire Japanese police system in operation, involving many government officials and business people.

Therefore, there has been quite a bit of turmoil in both circles in the past few days.

The media, like sharks smelling blood, surrounded the Metropolitan Police Department, the Public Security Bureau, and other government departments, all eager to get the first-hand information.

The moment the attack occurred, the media stationed at the Metropolitan Police Department sprang into action, leaving no time to take any action before a deluge of news appeared online.

There's a lot of online condemnation and discussion right now, putting pressure on the Metropolitan Police Department and the Public Security Bureau. Rei Furuya and Kagemitsu Morofushi, who are mainly in charge of the Black Organization case, are under a lot of pressure.

Morofushi Hiromitsu suddenly remembered someone else. He looked up at Furuya Rei and said, "By the way, Akai Shuichi said that the FBI is also searching hard. He will let us know if there is any news."

They already knew that Rye was an FBI agent, but they only recently learned that his real name was Shuichi Akai.

As soon as he finished speaking, Morofushi Kagemitsu's phone rang. He answered the call and, after hearing what was said on the other end, his expression brightened and a glint of light appeared in his eyes.

After hanging up the phone, he looked at Rei Furuya with delight: "Zero, the investigation into that captain has yielded results, and there may be a clue regarding Vermouth's whereabouts."

This was the only good news in the past two days. Just as Furuya Rei was about to ask a follow-up question, Morofushi Kagemitsu's phone rang again. This time, the caller was the team investigating Gin.

As long as Gin and the others are still in Japan, the Public Security Bureau has an advantage if they know the other party's facial features and physical characteristics. Therefore, based on the characteristics of Gin and Vodka described by Furuya Rei, the traffic department's patrol team made an unexpected discovery this morning.

"They spotted a tall man with long silver hair at the highway exit leading to Nara. He was driving alone and there was no sign of vodka."

After reading the message from the transportation department, Morofushi Kagemitsu looked excitedly at Furuya Rei in front of him.

"What is Gin doing in Nara?" Furuya Rei frowned, not quite understanding why Gin was heading to Nara, especially since Vodka wasn't with him.

Morofushi Kagemitsu was equally puzzled. He immediately contacted the traffic department team, which was suspected to be Gin, and asked for the surveillance footage and traffic recorder footage of that intersection.

They'd better confirm that the person is Gin so they can keep tracking him down.

Soon, the surveillance and recorder footage came over. Furuya Rei moved closer to Morofushi Hiromitsu, and the two of them stared at the footage closely for a while. Although the resolution was a bit blurry, they were still quite certain that the person on it was Gin.

Rei Furuya: "Immediately contact the transportation department to check the license plate number of the car Gin was driving and see where it ended up."

Morofushi Kagemitsu grunted in response and immediately began to act.

Meanwhile, Osaka Port.

A tall man with neat short hair joined the crowded queue to board the ship.

He was very tall, and his short, silver-white hair perfectly framed his sharply defined face. Gin had cut off his signature long hair and changed his clothes.

At this moment, he was just like an ordinary backpacker. Although he was slightly outstanding in appearance and had a cold and unapproachable temperament, he was not particularly eye-catching in the fleet of cruise ships that were about to sail overseas.

In the group seven or eight steps away from him, Vodka, who was also disguised, wore a knitted hat and thick-rimmed black glasses. His honest and unassuming appearance made it impossible to tell what he was really like.

They boarded the cruise ship without any problems.

At 1:30 p.m., the cruise ship departed from the port, and the port terminal gradually became a distant black dot.

"Brother, shouldn't we be leaving Japan now?"

"Idiot, as long as the cruise ship hasn't left Japanese waters, anything can happen. Also, don't run into me in crowded areas on the ship."

"Oh, I know, brother...are we going to Russia?"

"Okay, let's disembark over there first, and then transfer..."

That's the end of it. Of the three worlds I've written, Detective Conan was the most difficult to read. I didn't quite get the plot right, and I often had writer's block (it's giving me a headache). I'll learn from this experience and hope the next book will be better! Next up is the Bungo Stray Dogs side story, where we'll finally meet Dazai and Mori-san!
