Chapter 1979 1987 [Akai Shuichi's Conspiracy]
A deep voice came from the receiver: "What do you mean 'not'?"
The blonde woman carefully looked around to make sure no one was eavesdropping on her phone call before answering, "Nothing, I just saw someone who looked like you. I thought you were in disguise because you had a mission nearby, so I wanted to ask if you needed cooperation. Since I was mistaken, forget it."
——Judy, an FBI agent, is currently working as an English teacher at Teitan Junior High School under the pretext of being on vacation.
This group of FBI came here to track down Vermouth's whereabouts. They have basically locked on to the target and are closely observing him.
Vermouth's current identity as the "Teitan Junior High School School Doctor" has been confirmed, and all that's left is for the net to be closed.
Perhaps this kind of work that has already been done does not attract the interest of the FBI ace, Akai Shuichi does not often act with them, and only occasionally participates in some more dangerous surveillance. The rest of the time he is unpredictable, focusing on acting as a lone wolf outside the team.
Even Judy didn't know what this guy was busy with after coming to Tokyo. It was not until the last time when Shuichi Akai asked them to help arrange for someone to escape to the United States that the FBI had direct contact with the informant that Shuichi Akai personally found for the first time.
But what was strange was that the informant had bad luck in London and was entangled in cases. In the end, he lost contact with them and ran back to Tokyo alone.
So Judy could guess a little about what Shuichi Akai was doing now.
She asked, "Be careful when you contact that informant. I remember that after returning to Tokyo, although his life seemed to be the same as before, he never replied to our emails again. I suspect he has betrayed us, uh, or that he failed in his betrayal and returned to the right track?"
Akai Shuichi: "I know."
Judy always felt that the informant was dangerous, or the person who made him willingly flee back to Tokyo was dangerous. So now that she had said a lot, Shuichi Akai only said three words, and Judy couldn't help asking: "So when do you plan to contact Okiya Subaru, or do you want to arrest him directly? - No matter which one, you must inform us before the action. Now you and we are both operating in Beika Town, which is not a big place. It will be troublesome if we delay each other."
Akai Shuichi: "Okay."
Judy: “…”
There are fewer words.
Shuichi Akai was actually also thinking about this question - Okiya Subaru was Usa's subordinate, and combined with the large number of cases he encountered in London, it was obvious that it was Usa who caused him to give up escaping and return to Tokyo.
And Shuichi Akai's intuition told him that Usa was a big fish.
The cadres of this organization are brutal and often use murder cases as tools to kill people. They like to play with others and watch their mental breakdown, and there is a hint of self-interest.
Such a person found out that his subordinates had defected, but did not kill Okiya Subaru. Instead, he allowed them to continue living an ordinary "daily life" in Tokyo - there is only one truth, Okiya Subaru can bring him greater happiness than "punishing traitors".
As for what exactly that is...
Shuichi Akai thought there was no need to think too much: Usa was probably trying to use Subaru Okiya to fish out his bottle of rye whiskey.
Therefore, within the limits of Usa's patience, as long as he did not contact Okiya Subaru, this unfortunate graduate student would be safe. Compared with emails and correspondence, Akai Shuichi wanted to find a better time to contact him - it would be best if he could meet him in person.
Emails and correspondence could be monitored and manipulated, but direct contact could get more information. He might only have one chance to contact her, so he must not waste it.
"The organization is more cautious about showing up in public, so the best place to contact is in a public place." Akai Shuichi thought secretly, "And the mobility should be large, and the personnel should move fast enough to make it difficult to follow or set traps."
At this time, a bus slowly stopped at the platform downstairs, many passengers got on and off, and then the vehicle left.
Shuichi Akai stared at the car, thoughtfully.
But there was no rush for this matter - first he had to wait for Subaru Okiya to finish his thesis and start going out for a stroll.
So Akai Shuichi remembered another thing. He asked Judy on the phone: "What is your impression of Jiang Xia? I remember you happened to be his English teacher."
"Jiang Xia is in our class?" Judy was stunned for a moment, and then she thought about it carefully before she suddenly realized, "Now that you mention it, it seems to be true."
She came to Teitan Middle School mainly to get in touch with Vermouth. During this period, she hardly met Jiang Xia.
Sensing the silence on the other end of the phone, Judy felt a little embarrassed: "I don't think this is my problem. The main problem is that he doesn't come to class at all."
"..." Akai Shuichi, "We can contact each other in the future depending on the situation. After all, you are a teacher, so you have a natural advantage."
Jiang Xia appeared in all the cases related to Okiya Subaru in London, which is something that people are extremely concerned about.
It’s not that I think Jiang Xia is Wu Zo - first of all, a cunning cadre like Wu Zo who hides behind the scenes will definitely not expose himself every time and make the news.
The itinerary of Jiang Xia and Okiya Subaru overlapped too much. In comparison, it seemed more like someone deliberately created this effect behind the scenes.
In addition, the more crucial point is that Shuichi Akai found a way to get the files of those cases.
After careful inspection, he found that some cases and the hatreds involved needed to be prepared in advance. Jiang Xia was a famous detective with a very clear whereabouts, and he had indeed not come into contact with those people before the case.
"I suspect that person likes to create cases around Jiang Xia." Akai Shuichi said to Judy simply, "People's behavior is more or less inertial, and he will probably do the same thing in the future. Keep an eye on Jiang Xia, and maybe we can find some clues about Uzo."
Judy nodded solemnly.
After a moment, he came to his senses: "But I really can't see Jiang Xia. Can you think of a way to get him to school first?"
Akai Shuichi: "..."
"Let it be." Shuichi Akai didn't know how to persuade a high school student who was immersed in the detective career to go back to school to attend boring classes. After all, he himself didn't take it seriously in the beginning.
However, this small setback obviously did not faze the top FBI agent: "Jiang Xia has a very good relationship with his two female classmates. They are almost inseparable during the holidays. You can start with them - you are also a woman, and women should have more common topics."
Judy tried to recall the reports related to Jiang Xia and understood which two people he was talking about: "They can only be called girls. There is a generation gap between us. But you are right. This is a good breakthrough. I will try to contact them."
