Chapter 029 Sudden Crisis
On the way back, Vodka glanced sideways at Gin several times, and finally couldn't hold it in any longer. He asked while driving, "Brother, why did you let that guy go on the mission? Didn't he receive any systematic training? What if he fails?"
"No big deal." Gin took a drag on his cigarette and said nonchalantly, "It's Bourbon's mission anyway, so if we fail, we fail."
Vodka looked at Gin in shock: "Huh?"
Gin glanced at him and said, "Rum's men are not under my control. Whether he can complete the mission is none of my business. I'm just taking this opportunity to give that guy a warning."
"Let him always remember his identity. Don't think he's free just because he gets out of there."
"Also, don't be like that stupid woman, Akemi Miyano. She read so much that her mind went wild. She even wanted to leave the organization and brought in a rat."
Vodka thought: Brother, you sound like a feudal patriarch who doesn't like his children to study...
He added, "That guy is different from Miyano Akemi. He can't possibly leave the organization."
"Of course." Gin looked out the window. "As long as the organization exists, he will never be able to leave."

For the first time ever, Hatori Yui took a cold shower.
This is something he would never do as he has always paid attention to health preservation.
The cold water stimulated his skin and made his mind extremely clear.
Dong Yexi was in trouble. No matter what the reason, once he was targeted by that group, he would be like a leech, unable to get rid of it.
Fortunately, Gin gave him the task. He had to find a way to make them stop paying attention to Dong Yexi after this time.
Yui Hatori walked out of the bathroom, and before she could wipe off the cold water on her body, she sent a message to Higashino Hi.
\\
It was already dark when Dong Yexi returned home.
It was already afternoon when he arrived at the Ogawa Research Institute yesterday, and he waited a long time. Then, a crime suddenly occurred, and it took another while to catch the murderer. Later, they went looking for the kidnapped Director Ogawa. He was found near death after three days of starvation. Fortunately, the institute had everything it needed, and they immediately gave him water and salt.
Because of the high tide and strong winds at night, the police were unable to go out to sea and had to wait until the next morning to go to the island on a fishing boat. And the boat they took was the same boat that brought Dong Yexi to the island.
Dong Yexi thought: This uncle should be very happy these two days.
Afterwards, he went to the police station to take a statement. By the time he finished, it was already evening.
At this point, he didn't want to go back to school, so he sent a message to Professor Baotian, asking him to bring the information to him tomorrow. Then he went home and bought some fried chicken for dinner.
Just as he was happily eating fried chicken, the task was suddenly updated.
After many times of escaping death, he was able to face the "death warning" calmly. As long as he used the right method, he could easily avoid the crisis.
So, he turned on the system while leisurely gnawing on the chicken nuggets.
【Upcoming Event】：Students were attacked and killed at Dongdu University
【Murder weapon】: Pistol
Cause of death: Excessive blood loss
[Suspects]: Gin, Vermouth, Bourbon
Death Countdown: 71:59:59.59
"Cough cough cough!" Dong Yexi immediately spat out the chicken in his mouth and started coughing violently.
What? !
Who is the suspect? ! ! !
Dong Yexi rubbed his eyes and looked at the suspect column again. The three wine names side by side irritated his eyes.
No... why?! When did I ever have any connection with the Black Organization? Why would they want to kill me?!
Dong Yexi clicked on their names with an expression of doubt on his face.
[Gin]: A member of the Black Organization. You are involved in his mission, so be careful!
Vermouth: A member of the Black Organization. You are involved in his mission, so be careful!
[Bourbon]: A member of the Black Organization. You are involved in his mission, please be careful!
When Dong Yexi saw these lines of words, he was so scared that his hands and feet turned cold.
How did he get involved with their mission? !
Higashino was utterly panicked. Even if he hadn't seen Detective Conan, he knew how ruthless this Black Organization was. Especially Gin, who, when it came to his mission, would never hesitate to take action!
"Calm down! Calm down!"
He took a few deep breaths, forced himself to calm down, and carefully recalled his connection with the Black Organization.
First of all, he had only come into contact with Toru Amuro, also known as Bourbon, from the organization, and the last time they met was yesterday at the Ogawa Research Institute.
He originally thought that Toru Amuro went there with Kogoro Mori, but now it seems that he may have other purposes for going there.
The Ogawa Institute is connected to the Black Organization. It could be just a few people, or the entire institute could have defected to the Black Organization.
He was targeted because he took something.
However, he only took away the information about anesthetic drugs. And when he was looking for the information, Amuro Toru was watching him.
If this is the information Toru Amuro wants, then he had plenty of opportunities to secretly copy it from yesterday to today.
But the mission has only been updated now, which means that the information about anesthetics is not the key point, or the Black Organization has only discovered the importance of this information now.
Dong Yexi frowned and thought: Could it be that other important content was mixed in the information?
He wanted to open the USB drive to check, but he was afraid that if he found out something serious, he would be silenced.
Higashino rubbed his face, thinking: Whatever's in this USB drive, now that they've got their sights on it, they'll definitely find a way to take it. Right now, he can only avoid contact with Gin and Vermouth, as they might just "send him away." It would be best if he could get the USB drive directly into the hands of Amuro Toru. If Toru got his hands on it, regardless of whether the contents were useful or not, he'd definitely find a way to save him.
But how can he give the USB flash drive to Toru Amuro?
Just as he was thinking hard, his cell phone suddenly vibrated.
Dong Yexi was so frightened that his whole body trembled.
Oh no, no, he is starting to get a little nervous.
He clicked on it and saw that it was a message from Hatori Weiwei.
[Junior Hatori]: Senior Higashino, I would like to treat you to a meal. Are you free tomorrow?
Dong Yexi sighed deeply and muttered to himself with a depressed look on his face: "I am indeed very happy that you asked me out for dinner. But I am not in the mood for a date right now!!!"
He raised his hands and rubbed his hair frantically.
"Hey! Wait a minute!" He suddenly had an idea, "Yes, let's eat!"
Then he immediately picked up his phone and sent a message to Hatori Yui: Can I decide the location?
[Hatori-kun]: Sure.
[Xi]: Then see you at Café Poirot at 10:30 am!
[Hatori-kun]: Okay.
Dong Yexi looked at the chat box and smiled with satisfaction.
The solution, isn't it! He just needs to deliberately drop the USB drive at Poirot Cafe, and then let Amuro Toru pick it up!
It can not only solve the crisis, but also date the junior, killing two birds with one stone!
Fortunately, Toru Amuro has a fixed job, otherwise he wouldn’t know where to meet him!
After coming up with a solution, Dong Yexi felt relieved. The fried chicken on the table had already cooled down, so he put it in the oven to reheat it, and then ate it all, without wasting any of it.
\\
He said that it had no effect, but in fact, Dong Yexi had nightmares all night long.
In his dream, he was being hunted by a group of black-clad individuals armed with gin, vodka, Vermouth, even bourbon, and Kilson... They were armed with pistols and bombs, and the scene was intense. However, perhaps because it was his dream, he seemed particularly difficult to kill, dodging all the attacks. Finally, a junior student descended from the sky and rescued him.
Dong Yexi woke up with mixed emotions. In the first half of the dream, he was exhausted from running, but in the second half, he was very happy.
However, the scene of the person you like "riding on a rainbow cloud to save you" can only be seen in dreams. In real life, who can take off from the spot?
When Dong Yexi saw that it was getting late, he quickly threw off the quilt and got up to change his clothes.
Although his target today was Toru Amuro, he was also going on a date with his junior, so he dressed up specially.
Dong Yexi smiled with satisfaction at the mirror.
Today, I am still as handsome as ever!
When he arrived at the Poirot Café, he found that Hatori Yui had already arrived and was sitting at a seat by the window.
He checked in the rearview mirror of a car on the side of the road to make sure his hair was not messy before walking into the coffee shop.
After Higashino entered, he glanced at the bar to confirm that Amuro Toru was working today, then walked over to sit across from Hatori Yui. "Sorry, I'm late."
Hatori Yui smiled and said, "No, I came early." He handed the menu to Higashino Xi, "I haven't ordered yet, take a look and see what you like."
Dong Yexi suddenly noticed that the fingers of his right hand were bandaged. He frowned and asked, "What's wrong with your hand?"
Hatori Yuiichi took a look and explained, "Oh, I accidentally scratched it while playing ball. It's okay."
Dong Yexi thought: Volleyball seems to be a sport that is prone to injury...
At this time, Toru Amuro came over and poured them some water.
"Mr. Higashino, Mr. Hatori, welcome."
Dong Yexi looked at him and said, "I heard from Conan that Mr. Amuro's cooking skills are very good, so I came here to try it!"
Amuro smiled, revealing his white teeth: "It's my honor."
"Do you have any recommendations?" Dong Yexi asked.
"The most popular items in our store are ham sandwiches, tomato meat sauce pasta, stews, etc..."
Higashino Xi immediately ordered a sandwich. This was Amuro Toru's specialty, and he had to try it.
However, Hatori Yui struggled with the menu for a long time.
"I'm sorry, I rarely eat Western food." He said a little embarrassedly.
Amuro Toru said: "Then I recommend stew, which is Japanese style. Or you can try pasta."
Hatori Yuiichi said, "Then let's have one of each." He looked at Higashino Hi, "Please add some more. I'm afraid you won't be full with just the sandwich."
Dong Yexi thought about it and added another strawberry cake.
Toru Amuro put away the menu and went to the kitchen to prepare.
Higashino Hizuru started chatting with Hatori Yuiichi, and they talked about his visit to Ogawa Research Institute.
"You have no idea how remote that Ogawa Research Institute is! There's not even a boat to the island! The only way to get there is by fishing boat! And there was even a case! Luckily, Detective Mori was there, and he successfully caught the murderer. But it was almost eight o'clock when I got home last night." Higashino Xi deliberately raised his voice, "I didn't have time to give my things to my instructor, and I have to go to school this afternoon."
Hatori Yui nodded slightly: "Well, I have to go back in the afternoon, too, let's go together then."
"Yeah!" Higashino Higashi said while secretly observing Amuro Toru to confirm that he heard their conversation.
When the dishes were almost served, Dong Yexi said, "Wait a moment, I'm going to the bathroom."
He went to the bathroom, took out the USB drive from his pocket, and threw it on the ground. He even placed it in a conspicuous place to avoid Amuro Toru seeing it.
As long as Toru Amuro picks this up, he will be safe, right?
