"Not naughty anymore?"
Sakaki looked at Conan sideways.
"Stop being naughty, stop being naughty, I was just joking with you!"
Conan pursed his lips:
"What do you want from me?"
"I can't tell you right away. What class do you have next?"
"physical education."
"It's up."
"Oh my god, we agreed to play football, and I'm the main striker on the team! Without me, they will definitely lose!"
"Can you show some self-esteem? They are the same age as you, why are you bullying kids?"
"They don't know... Oh, forget it, why bother playing football? It's more important to do business!"
Before the bell rang, Conan took Sakaki Makoto and the other two out of the classroom and headed straight for the rooftop.
There was a biting cold wind blowing on the rooftop, it was freezing cold and no one came there at all, making it a great place to whisper.
The four of them found a sheltered corner and quickly got down to business.
Makoto Sakaki spent 15 minutes recounting the plan he had discussed with Kid last night, and proposed that Conan come forward to trick Suzuki Sonoko into making "suggestions" to Suzuki Jikichiro.
“Hmm…”
After listening to the plan, Conan said thoughtfully:
"Sonoko is easy to deal with. The problem is Suzuki Jikichiro. Although he hates Kidd, he may not necessarily accept our plan. Even if he accepts Sonoko's proposal, he can't be without any precautions. He must find someone to help, and that person is likely to be you."
“When the time comes…”
"You are also going to be involved in this jewel theft case. Won't Boss suspect you?"
Sakaki Makoto frowned slightly, he had overlooked this point.
In last night's Emerald Emperor incident, Makoto Sakaki took the gem back from Kid and proved his strength, so there is a high possibility that Suzuki Jikichiro will continue to entrust him with help.
This way, Sakaki Makoto won't be able to stay out of it.
This is a difficulty that cannot be circumvented. Although Makoto Sakaki was inspired by last night's incident, he still has to face new difficulties.
"Wouldn't it be better if you didn't go?"
The melon-eating brother Hongshu said beside him:
"Just say you're busy and can't get away. It's that simple!"
"In the eyes of Gin and Boss, I am a money-grubber."
Sakaki Makoto said with a serious face:
"As long as I pay, there is basically no mission I dare not take on. Fighting Kaito Kidd is a huge profit, how could I not go?"
"unless...."
"Unless the Black Organization has a mission for you!"
Conan shouted:
"In this way, you can not only express your loyalty, but also reject Suzuki Jikichiro's invitation and stay out of it!"
"That's right."
Sakaki Makoto nodded:
"I really need a good reason to remove myself."
"How about going to Vermouth for help?"
Miss Miyano suggested:
"Let Conan ask her for help. It will definitely be more effective."
Sakaki looked at Conan and found that he was holding his head high and acting like he was so important. It was really worrying...
Look proud.
"It doesn't have to be Vermouth. Although she is not 100% loyal to the organization, she is not on the same side as us after all. We must be wary of her."
After careful consideration, Sakaki Makoto said:
"Ever since the Black Organization determined that Akai Shuichi was dead, they have completely disappeared and secretly launched an operation to eliminate the traitor. My target is Mizunashi Rena, but she is currently seriously injured and lying in the hospital. There is nothing wrong with her at all, so there is no need to investigate. Gin simply let me take a vacation and I haven't contacted her for several days."
Makoto Sakaki had known about the Black Organization's plan to eliminate the traitors a long time ago, but there was no need for his help at the moment, and he was not sure what specific progress had been made.
Anyway, he hadn't seen Gin for a while, and he was probably very busy.
How about he call and ask?
No, it feels a bit like trying to cover up one's own guilt...
Besides Gin and Vermouth, who else can help?
"Bourbon!"
His eyes lit up, and Sakaki Makoto finally remembered this key person he had forgotten in the corner.
In the files of agents from various countries provided by Hongshu, there is a record of Bourbon. Although he is Rum's subordinate, he is an undercover agent of the Japanese Public Security Bureau, codenamed "Zero", which means a non-existent person.
But is there anyone in the world who doesn’t exist?
As long as they are alive, they will definitely leave clues. Especially for a large agency like the Japanese Public Security Bureau, it is impossible to say that there are no records at all.
Speaking of which, Makoto Sakaki still doesn't know the purpose of Bourbon's work at the Poirot Café. It is very likely that the other party came to monitor him on the orders of Rum.
etc....
Sakaki Makoto raised his eyebrows, and suddenly remembered that Bourbon had carried out several missions with them, and his identity had long been exposed. What was the difference between blatant surveillance and being stupid?
What was the point of him continuing to stay at the Poirot Café?
Could it be that Bourbon's target was not him, but someone else?
Living at 5-chome-39, the most likely suspect is not Sakaki Makoto, but Conan or Mouri Kogoro.
Conan has close contacts with Bourbon, so he must be suspicious of him, but does Rum know about this?
Rum originally sent Bourbon to the Poirot Café, and his target was definitely not Conan.
Using the process of elimination, Makoto Sakaki crossed out his own and Conan's names in his mind, leaving only an innocent spectator.
Mouri Kogoro!
Sakaki Makoto clapped his hands on his forehead and suddenly realized something.
Yes, Mouri Ran, the daughter of Kogoro Mouri, and Kudo Shinichi are childhood sweethearts. The two are close friends and it is rumored that they are in a boyfriend-girlfriend relationship.
And who are Kudo Shinichi's parents?
Yusaku Kudo and Yukiko!
These two great men are important figures who assist the FBI and are among the most formidable enemies in the eyes of the Black Organization!
In addition, Kogoro Mori has become increasingly famous in the past six months, his popularity has been increasing, and his life has been getting better and better. It is understandable that he is targeted by the Black Organization.
Gin had told Sakaki Makoto before to pay more attention to Mouri Kogoro, which means that Gin had noticed him from the very beginning, but just didn't take it seriously.
Not long after that, Rum, which had always been incompatible with Gin, sent Bourbon, and the target was still Kogoro Mori.
Maori Kogoro is really miserable. After being stabbed with hundreds or thousands of needles by his own son-in-law, he also has to face the strict defense of the two backbones of the Black Organization...
Ordinary people cannot enjoy this treatment.
Surrounded by tigers and wolves!
How dare the little rabbit open the door!
"I have an idea."
After figuring it out, Makoto Sakaki came up with a plan and spoke under the gaze of Miss Miyano and the other two:
"Whether it's Gin or Rum, they all suspect Maori Kogoro. In this case, why don't we use the time when he is out solving the case to complete the alibi?"
"In this way, I have sufficient reasons to reject Suzuki Jikichiro's invitation."
