It is cause for celebration, and everyone is celebrating.

This is the first big collaboration between Director Ke and Sir An. If this isn’t a movie version, then it’s definitely a special episode!

And it feels very similar to the Kiel arc, even the pattern is very similar.

However, this time the plan was not to assist with ambush but to assist with escape, and the target of the plan was not Mizunashi but Curacao.

Yes, I'm on my way to Nagano.

I feel like I’ve been constantly moving between several places lately, and finally, I’ve come to Nagano Prefecture again.

Of course, unlike last time, the reason for my visit to Nagano Prefecture this time was very subtle.

Are you surprised or surprised to see Kogoro Mouri doing makeup?

I also didn't expect that Sir An and Curacao reported to Rum that the leader of the special operations team code-named "Zero" had noticed the danger, so he urgently blocked Tokyo's file system.

Now only the backup, more secretive Nagano Prefecture Public Security Branch has what the winery wants.

Of course, if Curacao is directly removed from the public security system at this point in time, it will inevitably attract other people's attention, especially since Curacao has already stated that "zero" has already noticed the problem, so it will block the file system.

Naturally, in order to prevent Curacao from disappearing too abruptly in Tokyo, Rum arranged for someone to temporarily take Curacao's place.

He is also one of his subordinates. In order to match Curacao's appearance, he contacted the Thousand-Faced Witch Vermode to help other people disguise themselves as Curacao and live in Tokyo, and then withdraw when the limelight has passed.

What can I say? Isn't Rum rushing to deliver food to the police?

Ever since she got the cooperation from Curacao, she had too much intelligence in her head, and the undercover agents in the winery on the public security side were basically exposed.

At least the person who helped infiltrate Curacao lost his vest. But it's not time for Sir An and his team to make any moves. Instead of removing this thorn in the side, it would be better to keep him to do more things.

This will save the winery from sending in more people at this time.

As for Sir An, he received an order from Rum to go to Nagano Prefecture to assist Curacao. Before the undercover list was confirmed, only intelligence personnel certified by Curacao himself could be trusted.

And Curacao is mine, understand?

Because the birth of Curacao was originally accompanied by words such as brainwashing and coercion, Rum's trust in her was almost absolute, and he also trusted the intelligence she sent back.

Of course, the direct pointing out that Bourbon was not an undercover agent was not without basis. Long before Curacao infiltrated, Rum had doubts about Bourbon - according to what he heard later, it seemed that the zoo had passed on the news that Ando Mako should have conducted a very in-depth investigation into Jingguang's identity, and in the process, it was linked to Sir Ando. This news was vaguely passed to Rum, so Rum had specially instructed Curacao to investigate Bourbon's identity.

With this premise, although Curacao has not actually obtained the undercover list, she has indeed completed the investigation into Sir An's identity. Rum also accepted her investigation results and gave Sir An his trust.

This directly contributed to the implementation of this plan.

However, originally there was nothing for Kogoro Mori to do, and it would have been easier for him to find a job in Nagano Prefecture. But it just so happened that Kogoro Mori received a commission from Nagano Prefecture - it was more like an invitation than a commission. The TV station in Nagano Prefecture invited the famous Kogoro Mori to participate in a series of activities, including TV interviews, special reports in magazines and newspapers, and a live event.

Because it will last for several days, it is also a great opportunity for advertising, so he needs someone who can follow him all the time rather than the TV station's own makeup artist.

Then he thought of me, because we were friends, so he could use me with more confidence without worrying that I would record any dirt on him - he didn't expect Uncle Maori to still want to be a middle-aged idol, and to be honest, my price is cheaper.

We are all acquaintances, and I often persecute their sons-in-law, so I feel embarrassed to charge too high a fee.

This is what happened next.

In fact, I didn't participate much in the whole plan. I came more to provide backup and to contact Ando Mako in case I needed Halsey's cooperation. But as a "dead man" on the winery side, it's better for me not to show up too much.

What if I meet someone who remembers Jingguang's face?

I wouldn't bet on that possibility.

It is worth mentioning that on the train we took this time, there were not only them, but also the agent of the Suzuki family, Hikaru Morita - financial consultant, who was previously the "Silver Fox".

His purpose was to inspect the new community and amusement trails invested by the Suzuki family in Nagano Prefecture, which had just been built and were ready to start operations immediately after review.

Suzuki invested in the newly built building Conan Driving, this combination is hard not to think about.

For this reason, I specifically informed Sir An to be careful of the eight eggs at all times.

Of course, Kuroba Kaito is just a high school student. Although he is very proficient in magic, he has no exposure to finance and management. He estimated that he was not professional enough to review it, so as the person in charge, he specifically asked other people under the Suzuki Group to follow him, so that he could do both things.

appropriate.

According to the plan, I checked in with Kuaidou in the car, informed him of some of the public security deployment, and gave him a new contactor with anti-interference, anti-eavesdropping, and a dedicated line.

The confrontation at Bar No. 130 tonight will have to be left to Kuai Dou.

I would go with him, otherwise it would be too dangerous for him as a high school student... After discussing the plan with him, I stood up and walked away from the dining car, holding the snacks I brought back from the dining car in my hand.

The aisle on the train was not wide. When the door to the next carriage opened, I was bumped head-on and almost dropped the disposable paper cup that I had just filled with water.

"Be careful." The person who bumped into me brushed his clothes and looked at the water that I almost drenched him with, and spoke in a very unfriendly tone.

I lowered my head, nodded, and avoided him as if I didn't want to cause any trouble.

I must state that it was not me who was scared. As soon as this guy's voice came out, I immediately recognized his identity from his highly recognizable voice and dress style.

Brother Gin, why are you on this train too?

Why is this train so special? It is packed with all kinds of talented people - from the boss of a winery to the thief Kid, from public security police to Uncle Maori.

This configuration is really high-end.

I returned to the original carriage, brought snacks to the Maori father and daughter, and then sat in the back.

They were all double seats. Maori and his daughter sat in the front, and Conan and I sat in the back. Because of the system arrangement when we bought the tickets, there were other people between our two rows of double seats.

Conan relaxed and was not in a hurry to eat. He came over and whispered to me, "How is Kid?"

"Don't worry, you've seen him in disguise before, and he's doing just fine." They haven't come into contact with the zoo or the winery yet, they're just trying to fool Master Suzuki, and he's really good at fast fighting.

Conan nodded. The person who knows a person best is his opponent. He knew Kid's abilities, so he was not worried about that.

I leaned back in my chair. Conan was so small that he couldn't block my view of the scenery outside the window.

To be honest, I was a little worried when I saw the gin. After all, according to the plan, the only distilleries that would come to Nagano Prefecture were Curacao and Bourbon Sir.

An unexpected event occurred before the plan even started?

This feeling that something is not in my plan really makes me anxious.

This uncontrollable feeling soon affected Conan. I should say he quickly noticed that something was wrong with me.

"Brother Jōgō, what happened?" His voice was not loud, but very deep, and it was obvious that he had been in a nervous state since then.

I shook my head. There was no need to scare him anymore. Gin might not be here to do anything. According to what Curacao said before, Rum and Gin were not completely in a superior-subordinate relationship. The former and the latter were in charge of different departments, and their personalities were very different, so they didn't get along with each other on weekdays.

So the presence of Gin in this event that was entirely dominated by Rum was not necessarily a sign of—

I gave Conan a soothing look, and in his disapproving look I explained, "It's just a slight headache, it's nothing serious."

I closed my eyes. The journey was unexpectedly smooth. There were no problems with such staffing configuration - is this reasonable?

I dozed off and dreamed of something. It was a seemingly spacious place, but as my vision expanded, I could not help but feel a sense of narrowness. I could not sense where I was, but I knew there was someone next to me, with his mouth opening and closing, as if he was saying something.

When I woke up, the train had already entered the station in Nagano Prefecture.

The TV station receptionist had been waiting outside, holding a sign that read "Mr. Kogoro Mori".

I followed behind Uncle Maori.

All accommodation arrangements were taken care of by the TV station's staff. Uncle Mori is really famous. I feel like Kudo Shinichi back then and Osaka Black Chicken now didn't receive such treatment.

It may be because the uncle, in addition to being a detective, was also a former criminal policeman - the kind that could leave a legend in the police academy, and it would be particularly attractive to publicize it.

It is called a hotel, but in fact it is a special guesthouse for the TV station. Because they always invite various celebrities, TV stations of a certain scale generally have special guesthouses.

"bite--"

My phone vibrated and made a crisp sound. I took it out and saw a message from an unfamiliar number.

I thought about this number in my mind - it's a completely unfamiliar number...

My brain suddenly felt like it was stabbed, as if... it was not completely unfamiliar, it felt like I had seen it somewhere, but I couldn't remember where.

When I clicked on the message, there was only a string of numbers with symbols on it.

This isn't even a secret code; it's just coordinates.

I don't have the brain to locate the coordinates directly, so I got on the car and opened the map on my phone and entered the coordinates.

When it lit up, I saw the address - No. 130, Kojimada-cho, Nagano Prefecture.

Here again.
