Chapter 2740 2752 [Judy the inner ghost? ] Asking for a monthly ticketヽ(〃〃)~
Akai Shuichi: "..."
It's not that he hadn't thought about the traitor at all: almost every time, their actions against Uzo would be disrupted by the sudden appearance of the stage.
Any stage needs to be set up in advance, and Uzo’s tricks are of course no exception. In this case...how did Uzo know his own plan and then make targeted arrangements?
"I considered this point when I separated from you guys and acted alone before." Akai Shuichi said to James without hiding anything, "But now it seems that the effect is not great."
James thought for a moment with a serious expression. "You are indeed acting alone, but because many investigations are huge, you have to come back to borrow manpower. Perhaps the insider guessed your pattern of action by analyzing the information at hand, and then... hm?"
After a pause, James suddenly said, "No! You haven't been in much trouble recently. I'm the one being targeted.
“Although you had a car accident today, that was because you were on your way to save me… In other words, after you left us, the traitor could no longer accurately control your movements, so he turned his attention to me.
"Your solo action is very useful, and this also proves that there may be a traitor inside."
Having said this, both of them fell silent.
The FBI team, which was as solid as an iron barrel, had just arrived in Tokyo and encountered a huge internal crisis. This was really...
James looked distressed.
However, as a rational leader, he should solve the problem in time. He wiped his face vigorously and said decisively: "Who do you think the traitor is?"
Akai Shuichi pressed his forehead and reviewed his unsuccessful actions from the beginning.
He listed every person he had come into contact with one by one, and found the commonalities among them… Soon, a few names emerged from among a large number of teammates, and gradually became clear.
The two FBI looked at the names in silence: "..."
Those who could help in every operation were without exception the backbone of their group. Therefore, when James thought that there might be a traitor among this group of people, he seemed to become haggard.
"It's hard to imagine that our comrades who have fought through life and death together would actually do something like this." James pointed at the names and asked, "Who do you think is the most suspicious?"
Shuichi Akai didn't say anything, but his eyes moved slightly and stopped on "Judy".
——It is undeniable that as a person who pretends to be an English teacher and conducts in-depth investigation in Teitan Middle School, Judy has the heaviest burden on her shoulders, and she is also most likely to come into contact with the terrible enemy who is good at manipulating people's hearts.
"We rarely concealed her actions in the past. She does have the ability to be a mole." James sighed, "But Judy has a blood feud with that organization. If it weren't for Vermouth, she would be a carefree young lady now, and would not be an FBI agent with both parents dead... There is no reason for her to help the guy on the other side."
Akai Shuichi shook his head: "Which of those murderers who were used as disposable tools by Uzo has any reason to be his accomplice? The most terrifying thing about that person is that he can use certain means to make you think that everything you do is out of your own will."
James felt a chill in his heart: "How on earth did he do that?"
Akai Shuichi couldn't answer this question either.
However, although he could not understand it in a physical sense, he could interpret it in another sense: just like other people did not understand why he could hit such a far target with one shot - things that were incomprehensible to others were as easy as eating and drinking for the person involved. The same principle is still true now, but this time, Akai Shuichi seemed to have changed from the person involved to the "other person" in his own eyes.
After listening to his explanation, James said: "..." He seemed to understand but not quite... But forget it, this is not the point now. The point now is how to stop the loss and how to fight back.
...Okay, the counterattack needs to be planned, so let’s discuss stop-loss first.
"Everyone is sharing the same base. If something goes wrong inside, it could be a big problem." James stroked his chin. "I'll have them disperse when we get back. As for Judy and these two people... let them move out and live separately for a while. We'll see what happens next."
The matter of the traitor needs to be considered carefully and we can't be impatient.
James's eyes quickly returned to the present: "What are you going to do with that lady and her husband?"
Akai Shuichi thought for a moment and said, "The chances of digging out important information from them are slim, but now that you and I know about this matter... maybe this is a good opportunity to get rid of the surveillance of the inner demon."
As he spoke, remembering the reason why James had managed to escape today, he felt in his pocket and took out a beautifully designed business card.
…
the next day.
Jiang Xia came to the detective agency and rummaged through the mailbox, intending to see if there were any interesting commissions in it.
At this moment, he suddenly realized something, turned around, and saw a tall man with ordinary looks walking up to him.
Jiang Xia: "..." Where did Akai Shuichi get this disguise from... Never mind, everyone who comes is a guest, especially someone who is dressed in murderous aura. Don't worry about this little thing.
He opened the door: "Come in and sit down?"
Shuichi Akai thought of the ubiquitous surveillance cameras in the Amuro Detective Agency and shook his head.
He took out his business card and handed it to Jiang Xia: "I want you to come over and take a look at something."
Jiang Xia took the business card, took a quick glance at it, and saw four big words on it - Midoriya Jiro.
Jiang Xia: “…”
The last time Akai Shuichi asked him for a commission, he used this pseudonym. At the end of the commission, Akai Shuichi was attacked by Vodka and Conan, his disguise was torn, his identity was exposed, and he left in disgrace.
Jiang Xia thought that this fake identity would disappear forever, but who knew that now it was taken out and used by Akai Shuichi again.
...It seems that this FBI agent has no intention of hiding his identity from me.
Jiang Xia had no choice but to cooperate and showed an expression that changed from surprise to understanding and then to thoughtfulness. At the same time, he signaled the ghosts to increase their efforts and take away all the overtime pay that should be taken.
Then he politely asked the FBI agent who suddenly appeared: "What's the matter? If you don't want to go into the office, let's go sit in the cafe next door."
Jiang Xia was very friendly towards this FBI agent who suddenly appeared.
Soon, however, unfriendly people appeared.
Just after finishing talking about the car accident, Shuichi Akai saw the door of the cafe opening and closing, and three familiar-looking people walked in.
"Jiang Xia?"
Suzuki Sonoko looked over here with a sense of something and spotted her classmate at a glance.
