Chapter 193 Miyano Akemi's Plan

Day 12 of the Highway Survival Game!

Despite feeling embarrassed, Shiho Miyano already had someone she truly liked and didn't want her most important older sister to misunderstand, nor did she want her sister to reveal any hints about this when she met Kudo-kun, causing him to have the wrong impression.

That guy already suspected his relationship with Gin because Gin could spot his fallen hair at a glance during the Beika Hotel incident, even though it was just because Gin had an exceptionally keen sense for traitors in the organization.

He can quickly erase the details of the people he has killed from his mind, but when it comes to targets or traitors within the organization, he becomes like a sophisticated organizational calculator, retrieving every detail of the person from his mind.

It's normal for him to recognize her own hair. In fact, she had a feeling that if she appeared in front of Gin in this childish state, even if it was just a fleeting glance, he might notice something was wrong...

Anyway, it was originally a baseless rumor, but due to some coincidences, that guy misunderstood it. If he hears something from his sister, he'll really believe that he and Gin had dated.

The thought of letting the person she like know that she had a non-existent ex-boyfriend was something she would never be able to die in peace, even if she died here today. Therefore, she no longer gave the ambiguous response she used to when faced with this topic.

Instead, she earnestly explained to Miyano Akemi, "Gin and I have no relationship whatsoever. We just went on a few missions together, and some members of the organization, who are prone to spreading rumors, spread some silly gossip about us."

Despite her strong sense of self-respect and proud personality, Shiho Miyano still couldn't bring herself to tell the most important person in her life that she had used some embarrassing little tricks to protect the interests of the two sisters, and she didn't reveal that it was a misunderstanding she had deliberately created.

"Eh! Is that so!" Miyano Akemi noticed something hidden in her sister's eyes. Was there something she couldn't tell her? Was it related to Gin? Thinking back, she remembered their previous conversations about her relationship with Gin.

She had always been ambiguous and never answered directly, but this time she denied it very clearly. Even if she had also defected from the organization, it was impossible for her to have anything to do with Gin anymore. It was unusual for Shiho to so clearly sever ties.

Realizing this, her female intuition told her that besides secretly investigating the organization, she had often taken time to secretly observe her sister's condition and noticed that her sister's behavior towards the childish Shinichi Kudo was quite unusual...

Feeling that her younger sister was hiding some girlish thoughts, Miyano Akemi wanted to laugh a little. But when she recalled how her mother had taught her how to hold her little sister shortly after giving birth to Shiho and asked her to take good care of her, she felt a little sad.

My sister has someone she really likes now, she's really grown up! She thought to herself, but she also knew that now was not the time to talk about these things with her sister, so she pretended not to notice and straightened her expression.

Her expression changed from gentle to serious: "Since Gin is unlikely to show any mercy, we have no choice but to leave this dangerous place as soon as possible. But what exactly are your plans?"

Was it truly as the organization suspected, a plan to use this express train to evacuate the Kanto region, which was secretly and tightly sealed off by the organization's forces? Or was it simply a trip for friends to experience the express train, and their whereabouts were accidentally exposed, allowing the organization to track them down?

.

"And you? Since you're here, you must have made some preparations, right?" The reason why Shiho Miyano didn't try to find a safe place to take the temporary antidote and die after being threatened by Vermouth like before was because she saw her sister.

She was still in the mood to talk to her sister because she understood her sister's personality very well and knew that she was actually very intelligent, given her sister's understanding of the organization, her exceptional intelligence, and her protective instincts.

Since she was here, she must have made some preparations to get herself safely away from the organization's surveillance. So when she heard her sister's two questions, she realized that her sister must have also made two preparations.

I estimate that one of them could help me escape the organization's encirclement and leave the Kanto region of Japan, hiding me in a place where the organization's tentacles are not so sensitive. The other should be able to help me safely avoid the organization's eyes and return to my daily life at Teitan Elementary School in Beika Town.

As expected, upon hearing her question, Miyano Akemi didn't keep her in suspense and explained directly: "I've been tracking some of the organization's lower-level members recently, and from the tracking, I've learned that they helped Vermouth plant a bomb in the cargo hold at the rear of this train, and the target is you."

On this express train, two preparations were made: one was to have a specially modified drone equipped with a safety railing, capable of safely transferring people weighing less than 10 years old from the air.

An exit, large enough for a drone to carry you away, was cut out in advance from the roof of the carriage. Before arriving in Nagoya, the train will pass through a completely dark tunnel.

We can select the position of the locomotive or some carriages ahead of the train when it enters the tunnel, and control the drone to fly you away. The drone we control only needs to fly above the roof of the train.

No matter which carriage the people in the organization are in, it will be difficult for them to detect that you are passing through the roof. And when the train begins to enter the tunnel, their view of the outside world is taken away, and then you control the drone to move to the safe house I prepared in the Kansai countryside to hide your tracks.

This way, they won't realize you've left the Kanto region. Of course, this method won't work on your chubby little playmate; he probably weighs about the same as an average adult woman by now!

-_-|| Every time she meets and talks with her younger sister, Miyano Akemi tries to appear relaxed, and sometimes she even makes a joke to try to ease her sister's heavy mood.

"What about you! If they don't find me, they'll definitely search the train for more people. What if they find out about you?" Shiho Miyano asked worriedly after hearing this.

She never intended to leave Conan's side, so she never planned to take the opportunity to leave the Kanto region. In fact, even without the opportunity of this express train...

In the past, Professor Agasa and Kogoro Mouri would often receive travel vouchers or invitations from the Suzuki family to other parts of Japan, and on many occasions, the Suzuki family would drive them to various places outside the Kanto region.

She's even been to Izu Island, let alone Nagoya. She deliberately asked for two solutions just now because she was worried that her sister might overestimate the organization's integrity, just like she did when she planned to leave the organization last time, based on Conan's account.

If she underestimates the organization's methods again, or makes a move to sacrifice herself to protect her own safety, putting herself in danger once more, and creating a situation that she can't undo no matter how much she regrets, then she'll be in trouble.

.

"Pfft!" Sensing her sister's worry, Miyano Akemi chuckled softly and even twirled around in front of her: "Don't forget my current appearance. Those specially made drones were modified according to my weight. There are three in total. In addition to the ones for you and mine, we also prepared a spare one."

Actually, that movie was specially prepared for the childish Shinichi Kudo. However, after she got on the bus, she secretly observed and found that Vermouth was acting strangely. She clearly recognized the childish Shiho based on Shiho's appearance and her current whereabouts.

It wasn't difficult for her to deduce that Conan was Shinichi Kudo, but she seemed completely oblivious, showing no signs of intending to harm Conan. Even her threats against Shiho were made in secret, avoiding Conan.

This puzzled her. Recalling the information she had gathered, she learned that Vermouth was the daughter of a famous American star who was a close friend of Shinichi Kudo's mother.

It can only be speculated that because their mothers were acquainted, they might have had some interaction in the past and had a good relationship. Vermouth deliberately went easy on Shinichi Kudo, and at the same time realized that the third drone was probably useless, so she simply declared it to be a backup.

"What about the other plan?" Only after hearing that her sister's method was indeed feasible did Shiho Miyano ask how to safely escape the organization's encirclement and return without implicating others.

She felt that since her sister's plan included protecting her, her other plan should also take her safety into account.

And that was indeed the case. Hearing her ask that, Miyano Akemi immediately guessed that her sister had a reason for not being able to leave. Was it because she couldn't bear to leave Kudo-san? She guessed this in her heart, but didn't ask aloud.

After all, her younger sister had a somewhat proud and arrogant personality. Asking her face-to-face about things she didn't want to admit, or exposing her secrets, would only make her unhappy. So she didn't ask her sister why she didn't choose to leave the most dangerous place.

Instead, he chuckled and replied, "Drones aren't limited to flying around the countryside near Nagoya; they can fly back too. The battery life is enough to fly to the nearby town where I met the taxi driver."

"We can take advantage of the fact that the organization's eyes and ears are focused on this train and the Nagoya Station exit, and the road surveillance in Tokyo is relaxed, then we can take a taxi back to Tokyo. But just to be safe, we should disguise ourselves and go back as boys."

"Hmm!" Shiho Miyano was slightly taken aback when she heard her sister's second method. She felt a little speechless. She should have been able to guess such a simple method herself. Why did she have to ask her sister?

It's all that guy's fault. If he hadn't gotten into the habit of asking Conan when he couldn't figure something out, and hadn't habitually asked about things he couldn't immediately guess outside of scientific research, he wouldn't have made such a basic mistake. o(￣ヘ￣o＃)

Seeing that her sister had no objections, Miyano Akemi immediately squatted down, opened the suitcase, and took out the drone and disguise clothes inside. While checking the damage to the suitcase, she said with relief, "It seems that those mutated termites don't like plastic products."

These suitcases weren't chewed up, and the drone and clothing are still usable. Shiho, let's get started on disguising ourselves! Next, we just need to wait for the right opportunity to avoid the organization finding this carriage..."
