Chapter 96 The Death of Gu Ze: A Race Against Time for Soul Transfer
"Woo-wah-woo-wah--"
The sirens of police cars echoed throughout the city.
Beautiful Country, New York City.
A line of police cars with red and blue flashing lights were chasing a Porsche.
[Warning! Warning! The alternate soul has lost its link with the main soul! Please retrieve the alternate soul immediately!]
[Warning! Warning! Please retrieve the alternate soul immediately! Otherwise, the main soul will be severely damaged...]
Little C's alarm kept ringing in Kurozawa Jin's mind, making Kurozawa Jin's nerves twitch.
[Kurosawa Jin: Stop arguing, I know, how do we recycle it?]
[Ding! Detection detected that your account has been infected with a high-latitude drug—a mind-altering powder.]
This drug can trap the soul within a person's body, causing the body to temporarily obey the commands of the person who administered it, becoming completely at their mercy.
[Ding! After taking this drug, you cannot remotely transfer your soul. Your original body and the alternate body must be in contact for the transfer to occur.]
Upon hearing this, Kurosawa Jin cursed a few times and then shot the tires of the police car behind him.
The large movement aggravated his wound, and he gasped, clutching the gunshot wound in his abdomen.
When Gu Zezhong was being bewitched, Hei Zezhen was at the scene of a fierce battle, and his divided soul lost its connection, causing him to momentarily freeze.
Misfortune never comes singly; in that very instant, a bullet that he could have dodged instead ripped a large hole in his body.
Behind him was a large group of police officers, and he himself was seriously injured. He also needed to travel from one end of the earth to the other to reattach his vest.
This is absolute hell!
"Brother, are you alright?" Vodka asked with a worried look as he drove, sitting in the passenger seat.
"Shut up, drive your car! Get out of here first!" Kurosawa Jin said coldly.
Twenty minutes later, Kurosawa Jin and Vodka finally shook off their pursuers and arrived at Gin's safe house.
After quickly treating the wound on his abdomen and sending Vodka away, Kurosawa Jin immediately set about going to Japan.
He flipped through the items he had on hand. Although he had a teleportation item, it had a distance limit.
Kurosawa Jin clicked his tongue and took out his phone to contact Akai Shuichi and Morofushi Kagemitsu.
He needs them to hold out for a while before he gets to Japan.
Neon lights, inside a hospital.
"How could this happen!" Matsuda Jinpei kicked the wall hard outside the ward. "I don't believe Gu Ze would hurt someone!"
Last night, the injured "Kurosawa Jin" was airlifted to the nearest hospital, and after emergency treatment, "Kurosawa Jin's" life was saved.
Now, "Kurosawa Jin" has just been transferred from the ICU to a regular ward.
Kenji Hagiwara analyzed, "This is too bizarre. Gu Ze and Kurosawa-san have only just met. How could they possibly have a grudge against each other!"
"Did you guys notice that Gu Ze was acting really strange back then? He seemed a bit... disoriented."
Conan, who had been thinking silently, spoke up: "Based on my understanding of Gu Ze, he wouldn't do anything extreme."
To put it bluntly, if Gu Ze wanted to kill someone, he would definitely do it through a proxy.
“Someone is framing me!” Matsuda Jinpei said in a low voice.
"Who could it be? The go-kart's enemy or Kurosawa's enemy?" Kenji Hagiwara proposed.
Just then, Kenji Hagiwara's phone rang. After answering and chatting for a few minutes, his expression grew increasingly serious after hanging up.
He said in a low voice, "Inspector Megure said that Gu Ze has confessed."
"What! What is Gu Ze thinking? Confessing his guilt?" Matsuda Jinpei was incredulous and paced back and forth anxiously.
"No, I have to go back to the Metropolitan Police Department." He said this as he stormed off.
"Wait a minute, Jinpei!" Kenji Hagiwara hurriedly grabbed Jinpei Matsuda's clothes. "Ku Ze is not at the Metropolitan Police Department right now. He should be on his way to the police station."
"Inspector Megure said the case has been transferred to the Public Security Bureau," he added.
"Tsk, damn it!" Matsuda Jinpei was extremely annoyed and changed his destination. "Then let's go to the police station and find Haruhiko-nii."
After saying that, he left without looking back, and Kenji Hagiwara had no choice but to follow behind him.
"I want to go too!" Conan ran after the two of them.
"No, Conan, I can't take you with me this time. I've already messaged the class president, and he'll be here to pick you up and take you home soon."
Sensing that he had no chance this time, Conan had no choice but to settle for second best.
He pretended to agree, but when Kenji Hagiwara wasn't paying attention, he removed the listening device from his glasses and put it in the other man's pants pocket.
After Matsuda Jinpei and Hagiwara Kenji disappeared from sight, Conan sat on a chair in the hospital corridor, adjusting his glasses and listening intently to the sounds coming from the bugging device.
He originally thought that he would only hear useful information after Kenji Hagiwara and the other person arrived at the police station, but he didn't expect that he wouldn't have to wait that long.
"Let's talk in the car," Ichihara Haruhiko's voice came through indistinctly.
They appeared to be in the parking lot, where Haruhiko Ichihara stopped Jinpei Matsuda and Kenji Hagiwara.
"Bang!" The car door slammed shut, and Haruhiko Ichihara began the conversation.
"The police have already discovered that Gu Ze has an unusual relationship with the Black Organization."
"His third uncle was once a high-ranking member of the organization—Bidoli."
"Why is it that organization again! Why are they always haunting us!" This was Matsuda Jinpei's cursing.
"What does that have to do with this incident?" This was the question asked by Kenji Hagiwara.
“We found out that Ah Zhen was secretly brought into the organization to be used as a test subject. The person was Bideli, Gu Ze’s third uncle.”
Haruhiko Ichihara replied, "So, I want to tell you that Gu Ze has never been innocent, and he has reason to attack A-Zhen."
"He might even be a member of the organization!"
“This…this is impossible,” Matsuda Jinpei said hesitantly.
"..."
After this conversation, Kenji Hagiwara and Jinpei Matsuda's approval ratings dropped slightly, but not by much.
Then, a phone call threw them into disarray.
Conan heard a busy signal followed by Haruhiko Ichihara's panicked voice.
"What did you say! Gu Ze has been kidnapped!"
"I saw that car. After they picked up the people, they drove towards the docks." Shuichi Akai lay on the rooftop of a high-rise building, holding a sniper rifle and aiming.
He placed his phone aside and made a call on speakerphone, with Kurosawa Jin's voice coming through.
"Okay, I'll be there in about twenty more minutes." Kurosawa Jin was still on his way.
He originally planned to take the alias to the police station so that he could directly access the alias and transfer his soul once he returned to Japan.
But little did anyone know that just over ten minutes earlier, a group of go-karting enemies had stolen the vest, disrupting Kurosawa's plans.
"There's an intersection ahead with very few cars. Wait until that car crosses the intersection, then shoot out its tires."
Kurosawa Jin calmly stated, "After the car stops, you can take care of these people."
"Is that all? Do you need me to find someone to help you...?"
Before Shuichi Akai could finish speaking, Jin Kurosawa interrupted him.
"No need, the fewer people who know about this, the better."
“My identity is very important. I don’t trust many people, but you are one of them.”
"That's an honor." Shuichi Akai smiled slightly and aimed his sniper rifle at the robbers' vehicle that was about to cross the intersection.
At the same time, he pulled the trigger, and a bullet spun rapidly through the air, shooting straight into the car tire.
The tire blowout caused the car to lose control, and if left unchecked, it could easily damage the cars next to it.
"Bang!" A loud crash echoed at the intersection.
A gray sedan crashed into the roadside green belt, knocking the out-of-control van into the roadside green belt.
Seizing the opportunity, Shuichi Akai pulled the trigger again, firing several bullets at the driver and the other people in the van, clean and efficient, each shot hitting their head.
Mission accomplished, Shuichi Akai peers through the scope of his sniper rifle at the distant car accident scene.
A man got out of the gray sedan. Shuichi Akai didn't recognize his face, but his figure looked somewhat familiar.
This person was none other than Zhu Fujingguang, disguised.
He moved quickly, ran to the side of the van, opened the wrecked door, and pulled a person out.
Shuichi Akai narrowed his eyes. He had seen this person in the newspaper before. He was a famous reporter who was righteous and had exposed many dark things.
Surprisingly, the go-kart driver was a member of the police. So why was he detained by the police? Is there infighting among the Japanese police?
Shuichi Akai thought to himself as he packed his things and prepared to leave. What did the FBI have to do with the Japanese police?
On the other side, Morofushi Kagemitsu thought that everything would be fine after rescuing Gu Ze, but an accident happened.
(Attack him! Kill him!)
Negroni's voice echoed in Gu Ze's ears, but only Gu Ze could hear it.
This is the effect of the mind-controlling powder; the person who has been drugged will be temporarily controlled by the person who administered the drug.
Gu Ze's soul was imprisoned in his body; his eyes were empty, his expression was blank, and he could only act according to Negroni's will.
He broke free from Morofushi Kagemitsu's arm, quickly clenched his right fist, and punched Morofushi Kagemitsu in the abdomen.
Sensing the movement from the other side, Morofushi Kagemitsu was no pushover either, and dodged to the side.
"Are you crazy!" Morifushi Kagemitsu shouted at Gu Ze, "I'm here to save you!"
He didn't understand. Weren't they on the same side? Why would they suddenly turn on each other over the slightest disagreement?
However, his reprimands did not affect Gu Ze. Gu Ze remained silent and continued to attack and attack.
After a few rounds of fighting, Morofushi Kagemitsu realized something was wrong with his opponent.
He said to Kurosawa Jin through his earpiece, "Kurosawa-ge, Mr. Gu Ze is acting strange. He seems not to recognize me and is even attacking me."
"Hold on a little longer, don't hurt him. I'll be there in half a minute," Kurosawa Jin instructed, guessing that it was Negroni's doing again.
"good."
Half a minute later, a helicopter flew in from the horizon.
A deafening roar suddenly exploded above Gu Ze and Zhu Fujingguang's heads, the propellers stirring up the air currents and creating a whistling sound.
The side door of the fuselage slid open slowly, and a heavy rope ladder hung down, swaying wildly in the wind.
The next second, a figure wearing a black coat and with flowing silver hair descended the rope ladder. He was agile and quickly joined the battle after jumping down the rope ladder.
"You go up first, I'll leave this to me," Kurosawa Jin said to Morofushi Kagemitsu.
Morofushi Kagemitsu and Kurosawa Jin exchanged a glance, trusting each other implicitly, and took a moment to climb the rope ladder and enter the helicopter.
“Alright, your opponent is me.” Kurosawa Jin stretched his wrists and said to the out-of-control vest.
Fighting against your own alternate account is a great experience.
