Chapter 167 The Improved Feng Jiang
Day 12 of the Highway Survival Game!
"Ahem! I'll pass on the message to him in a bit!" Hagiwara coughed, startled by Gin's menacing words. He quickly gave Morofushi a meaningful look, then asked, "Let's get down to business now! Are you in Tokyo right now?"
"Here!" Gin said, sitting in the passenger seat of his car, which was being driven to the airport by Vodka. As the distillery's workaholic, he was certainly not idle today, having just made plans with Vermouth last night.
This morning I flew to Nagoya and waited at Nagoya Station, preparing to ambush Sherry at Nagoya Station, which is directly accessible by the Suzuki Express, should Bourbon fail.
Hearing Granvit say this, given his reasoning ability, he immediately guessed that their destination during this time travel was Tokyo. Therefore, almost as soon as he answered, he immediately gave Vodka a pause gesture.
Vodka may be dull in other ways, but he follows Gin's work instructions well and has excellent driving and fighting skills. So when he saw his boss's gesture, he immediately changed speed, changed lanes, and parked Gin's car on the side of the road.
As Gin began to change lanes with Vodka, he asked Granvitt, "Are you in Tokyo now? Where exactly?"
"It's great that you can grasp the situation so quickly. You sound like you're also in Tokyo? And that you can get anywhere in Tokyo in no time? We're on the Suzuki Express at Tokyo Station right now!"
However, due to time and space constraints, it seems we cannot leave this train at the moment. Can you get here within an hour? Hagiwara was taken aback by his future brother-in-law's incredibly quick reaction. This guy is really not easy to fool! He guessed his whereabouts with just one question.
Hagiwara was wondering to himself whether Gin would be easy to fool! Hearing his brother's voice, Kazeki immediately shouted without any hesitation, "Brother! My ammo is running low!"
When you come, please bring plenty of ammunition. Just the Beretta model ammunition will do; bring lots of it. Other types of pistols are also fine as long as you have enough ammunition! Forget about hand grenades; they're inconvenient to use.
If Officer Sang accidentally slipped and that thing exploded in the car, the scene would be too horrible for Feng Xingshou to even imagine. Although he knew that with the skills of these three officers, they wouldn't cause such a 'naturally cute' situation like an anime heroine falling flat on her face, just to be on the safe side, he decided to leave it alone.
Was it Fatty Piglet who stole his weapons and ammunition last time? When Gin heard that his Fatty Piglet not only knew that he had his favorite Bereta, but also mentioned other models of hand guns and hand grenades.
He instantly realized that his earlier guess that the 'thief' was Darmo and his group was wrong; the real 'culprit' was probably his own fat pig...
Realizing this, Gin was actually somewhat pleased: "Heh...it seems you've finally improved over the years, at least you know how to steal."
"Uh..." Upon hearing the voice from the other end of the phone, Feng Xingshou subconsciously glanced at Hagiwara next to him, as well as the two police officers next to him. His face immediately turned bright red, and he almost burst into tears inside.
This brother is hopeless! He actually admitted to stealing in front of the three police officers! How can I face them now? How could he do that?
This made her almost furious as she retorted, "How can taking your own brother's things be considered stealing!"
o( ̄ヘ ̄o#)
"What's your rush?" Gin asked, somewhat surprised by her tone. After all, even though his little piglet knew some of his 'job duties,' he had never shown such an exasperated tone.
Feng Xingshou was speechless when questioned. She couldn't very well say that because there were three police officers present, and he had said those things in front of them, she felt like she was only one step away from wearing the silver bracelet! ┭┮﹏┭┮
Her speechless tone made Hagiwara laugh, and he immediately answered for his Kaze-chan, "Pfft! Gin-nii-san, Kaze-chan is very proud! Don't say things in front of us that make her feel embarrassed, she'll feel like she's lost face in front of me!"
"Shut up!" Hearing this, Feng Xingshou wished he wouldn't say a word.
"Hmph!" o( ̄ヘ ̄o#) Gin felt like killing someone right now, especially taking down a certain glib-tongued guy who knew Fat Pig very well. Unfortunately, the guy wasn't in front of him, so he couldn't even intimidate him with his murderous aura.
He could only snort coldly and say, "If you're arguing, go back to your bed and argue. Let's get down to business first. I'll be there in about 15 minutes. You two wait over there and tell me everything you've been hiding."
Originally, the organization had already given orders to either capture or kill Sherry, who had defected, but after obtaining information from 'Dalmore' and his team last year about the enormous dangers posed by the future Silver Bullet, they changed their minds.
The organization's boss changed his original orders, instructing his subordinates to intensify their search for Sherry's whereabouts and bring her back to the organization as soon as possible. Even if they were to kill her, they were to interrogate her to find out whether she had kept the silver bullet research data or leaked it to others before taking action.
Therefore, Bourbon was originally sent by Rum to find Kogoro Mouri and keep an eye on him because Rum discovered that Kogoro Mouri had been involved in several cases related to the organization and thought he was very suspicious. If he was found to be suspicious, he was to immediately kill him and those associated with him.
After the information about the dangers of the silver bullet emerged, even Bourbon and Rum's request to investigate whether Shuichi Akai was really dead was put on hold. The organization's boss directly ordered him to focus on gathering information about Sherry's whereabouts.
The frustrating thing is that even Bourbon couldn't find Sherry's whereabouts in the past year, and even Honda, another genius researcher in the organization who developed the silver bullet, codenamed Junelek, also mysteriously disappeared.
Whether it was his own betrayal or he was manipulated by the US government and capital circles, Bourbon is keeping a close eye on things in Japan, and it is certain that it has nothing to do with the Japanese government or Japan's big capitalists.
It wasn't until a few days ago that Bourbon finally managed to find out that Sherry was hiding in the deep mountains of Gunma and was planning to use the Suzuki Express to escape from Kanto and enter the Kansai region where the organization's manpower was not so dense. After obtaining this information from Bourbon, Vermouth actively and proactively planned this operation.
.
Gin usually decides whether to participate in actions that are not arranged by the organization's boss but planned by the organization's members themselves, depending on his mood, especially after learning that the organization's boss is actually a coward who is afraid of getting old and dying, and has no ambition to do anything great as he expected.
With him currently searching for a new job opportunity, he had no intention of actively participating. However, this time, since it involved the dangers of the silver bullet, although his own son, Fatty Pig, didn't say it outright, he could tell that Fatty Pig deeply hated and was extremely disgusted by the drug.
He estimated that, given Fat Piglet's personality, besides knowing how many deaths and injuries this drug caused to humans due to its side effects, what could make her so emotionally averse to it and feel such empathy? He guessed that she probably suffered a lot because of this stuff during the years when the silver bullet's side effects were rampant.
So after hearing Vermouth's plan, and with the aim of getting information from Sherry about whether she had leaked any information about the development of the Silver Bullet, he also took the initiative to participate in this operation planned by the organization's members.
We're currently on our way to the airport to catch a plane with vodka to Nagoya, preparing for the possibility that Sherry, that wary deer, might escape Bourbon, and for Vermouth to prepare for the Iron Serpent Hunting Grounds, ready to catch her when she thinks she's escaped.
So it was quite a coincidence that it was in Tokyo, where he could quickly get to the Suzuki Express. And if Bourbon's plan hadn't been a hoax, he should already be hiding on the Suzuki. This was quite a coincidence.
But was their location and timing of this trip truly a coincidence? Did they have some prior information about this operation? Did they know that Bourbon was on the Suzuki Express at this time, and that they themselves had enough time to get there? Did they deliberately choose that location?
Holding onto this conjecture, Gin deftly hung up the phone and instructed Vodka, "Vodka, turn around and head to Tokyo Station!"
Then he called the organization's logistics department and ordered them to immediately prepare several invitation letters for the Suzuki Express...
Meanwhile, Bourbon, who knew their location from Scotland and that Gin was about to arrive, also thought it was too coincidental. He even thought that they deliberately chose such a time and place to travel so that they could see him and Gin quickly at the same time.
I find this hard to accept. Shouldn't they meet with me first to exchange information and make sure that contacting the organization's people won't expose them before meeting with Gin and the other real members of the organization?
Why not give yourself a chance to prepare? But that was based on the premise that the people in charge were your close friends. Right now, it seems that Gin's sister is the one in charge.
Gin is also the heir to the organization, so his sister must also be an important member of the organization. Given her status, her actions and stance will naturally lean towards the organization, so I can't have any expectations of her.
Thinking of this, Bourbon stopped worrying about them not discussing the meeting with Gin beforehand and quickly said, "What a coincidence, I'm on the Suzuki Express today! What car are you in? I'll come over to see you right away."
"It's quite a coincidence, we're in compartment A of carriage 4!" The Scottish side was also surprised. After Bourbon hung up the phone, they looked at Hagiwara and the others with some astonishment: "Didn't you guys say that it was always difficult to meet with Bourbon and the others to have a proper talk and exchange information, as if the game organizers were deliberately intercepting you? How come it went so smoothly this time?"
