There were hurried footsteps in the fire escape. After learning that there was a problem with the observation elevator, Fujiwara Yu's heart, which had just calmed down, became heavier again. He quickened his pace and rushed towards the 45th floor where the observation elevator was located.
The gap of thirty floors could not be narrowed in a short time. Akai Shuichi's slightly concerned voice came from the headset:
"Do you need Judy and I to return to Building A to assist you?"
"No need! You will be recognized by the organization members. Right now, Vermouth only knows that there are CIA agents in the building, and she doesn't know about you and Judy. If possible, find a tall building where you can see the Twin Towers. I think there should be snipers from the organization waiting there. Remember not to kill, but capture them alive."
"Understood. Leave this matter to me. Contact me anytime if you have any questions."
"Wait a minute, have you seen her?"
Akai Shuichi glanced at the women running out of Building A, but didn't see Miyasaka Asami.
"No, but it should be okay. If you're worried, I'll let Judy..."
"No, I'll call her later."
"OK."
Shuichi Akai opened the trunk of the Ford Mustang, but instead of picking up the guitar bag hidden inside, he picked up a shoulder bag. While the firefighters around him were not paying attention, he took out a Smith & Wesson revolver from it in broad daylight. There was no need for a sniper rifle in close combat.
He closed the trunk and got into the driver's seat. He looked at Judy who was checking the map beside him and asked:
"How is it, have you found the building?"
"Well, it's not far away. We can drive to this place, hide the car, and then take the elevator directly up."
"learn."
At this time, Edogawa Conan, who was on the 45th floor of Building A, turned on the flashlight on his watch. After confirming his current floor, he did not panic. He shouted loudly to Mao Lilan and others who had just climbed out of the elevator behind him:
"Sister Xiaolan, this is the 45th floor with the connecting bridge. Before the fire spreads to this side, let's hurry and cross the bridge to the next building!"
"Okay! Everyone please follow us. Don't panic when running and keep calm!" Mao Lilan nodded vigorously. Even though she was a little scared, she had the younger Conan by her side, and as an older sister she had to set a role model.
Zhu Fujingguang, who was standing on the roof of a high-rise building in the distance, used a night-vision telescope to clearly see the people running on the 45th floor, but did not see Shirley. They were all the passengers who had just looked at the elevator.
He put down the night vision binoculars in his hand and said:
"Gin, we didn't find Shirley on the 45th floor. I don't think she's here. We also didn't find the CIA agent Vermouth mentioned, not even a single adult male."
The CIA agent is undoubtedly talking about Fujiwara Yu. I don’t know his current situation, but I hope he is fine.
"Calvados, report the situation on your side."
"I'm currently in the fire escape next to the connecting bridge corridor on the 60th floor of Building B. I haven't found the woman described by Vermouth here. I think the CIA agent should still be in Building A." Calvados adjusted his headset and reported.
Gin extinguished the cigarette in his hand, turned his head to look at the twin skyscrapers in the distance that were particularly dazzling in the dark night, and snorted coldly:
"Hmph, Shirley's probably not here, but don't let that CIA agent go. Calvados, blow up the communication bridge. Scotland, you'll be on the top floor of the building. If any helicopters approach, tell me directly. We can't let him get away."
"yes."
At this time, Fujiwara Yu had just reached the 62nd floor. Just when he jumped down to save time, a huge explosion was heard outside. What was exploding again?
Shuichi Akai's voice came from the headset. He told himself that the communication bridge was completely blown up. If he wanted to go from Building A to Building B, he could only leave from the top floor.
Fujiwara Yuu gritted his teeth. He hadn't expected the organization to plant so many bombs in the Twin Towers. Knowing Gin's cautious nature, he believed the top floors were already surrounded by bombs, making a helicopter evacuation impossible.
We must find a way, we must find a way to take Kudo away from here.
He fished out his cell phone from his pocket and dialed Kudo's number directly. The call was answered successfully after three seconds.
"Brother Ying Si, why did you call me suddenly?"
Hearing Kudo's concern for him, Fujiwara Yuu did not slow down his pace. The reason why Kudo called him that was simply because Mao Lilan was by his side. He asked:
"Where are you and Ms. Maori? Are you on the connecting bridge on the forty-fifth floor?"
"We have successfully arrived at Building B and are ready to take the elevator directly down."
"Why?"
Fujiwara Yuu couldn't help but pause. He didn't expect that Kudo had already evacuated safely. It seemed that their luck was not bad. They successfully ran to Building B when the communication bridge was blown up.
He relaxed a little. Now the person he needed to worry about was not Kudo, but himself.
"Brother Takashi, you are not still in Building A, are you?" Edogawa Conan frowned slightly and asked in a low voice.
"Yeah, but don't worry, I'll find a way. By the way, have you seen the shallow sea? If you see it when you go down later, let me know."
"Okay, I'll wait for you downstairs!"
Fujiwara Yu hung up the phone and walked downstairs. The fire should have only spread to the 40th floor now. Using a high-temperature resistant rope, he should be able to descend to a safe floor. He was somewhat glad that he had prepared the tools in advance and hidden them in the toilet cubicle. Now he just had to go back to the 75th floor to retrieve the tool kit.
