Chapter 3468 3480 [Full Moon Drama] Ask for monthly ticket ()
A few minutes ago.
Dock, container storage area.
Shuichi Akai followed the taxi in front of him and drove all the way to the port.
After taking a look at the increasingly narrow road ahead, he did not continue to follow the taxi. Instead, after judging the direction of the taxi, he parked the car in an alley.
After getting out of the car and closing the door silently, Akai Shuichi began to observe his surroundings while making a detour towards his target point.
If he remembered correctly, he had seen that hooded kid before. At the time, he and Wuzo were facing each other across the Twin Towers, and Wuzo... or rather, the curly-haired guy who looked like Wuzo, seemed to be holding a girl in his arms.
Akai Shuichi pondered that scene for a long time, unable to grasp its purpose. Later, he could only make a vague guess: some bosses like to appear with a cat or dog in their arms. And Uzo took that approach a step further, holding a child who was far more powerful than a cat or dog?
…No matter what, the appearance of that little girl must mean some kind of abnormality, and it is very likely that it is related to Usa. So Akai Shuichi simply followed over, intending to see what was going on here.
As he was walking around, suddenly, his ears moved and he heard a gunshot.
Shuichi Akai raised his head, his eyes slowly rising and locking onto one place.
…
Late at night at the seaside, on top of a container.
A figure lay there holding his breath, looking at the three people below through the sniper scope, cold sweat silently oozing out of his palms.
He looked at his hands and wanted to take out a handkerchief to wipe them, but he felt that such a large movement did not seem to be something a sniper who was marking someone should do, so he took a deep breath and endured it.
At this moment, I don’t know if it was an illusion, but the container planks under me seemed to vibrate slightly.
"Hmm?" After a brief moment of bewilderment, the sniper suddenly realized something. His heart skipped a beat, and he instinctively tried to roll to the side. But just as he was about to gain ground, a hand suddenly shot out from behind, grabbing his throat and completely cutting off the scream that was about to escape his lips.
At the same time, the man kneed him hard on the back and clamped his gun-holding arm with his other hand, trying to dislocate his arm like disassembling a robot.
“￥%&*!”
The sniper who was attacked seemed to have a lot of things to say, but he couldn't break free. In the end, he could only pray loudly in his heart in despair.
At this moment, as if a prayer had been answered, the person behind him paused, unable to conceal his surprise: "Why is it you?!"
Although the voice was low, the sniper immediately recognized the attacker: "..." Akai Shuichi!!
It’s over…
The sniper's eyes went dark and he passed out - it wasn't entirely because of fear, but mainly because his neck had been strangled for a long time, and his heart was beating violently, causing him to be a little short of oxygen.
Akai Shuichi: "..."
He looked down at the familiar guy and fell silent for a moment.
In fact, before climbing up here, he had already seen a glimpse of the situation outside through the gap in the container - "Dr. Shinchu" was standing below.
Since this farce is related to Vermouth, the sniper hiding in the high place should be brought by her... This is what Shuichi Akai originally thought.
However, now, taking a closer look, the man in front of him, who was either strangled or frightened unconscious, is not "Vermouth's confidant" at all... because he is Subaru Okiya.
After a brief moment of bewilderment, Akai, recalling the hooded, furtive little girl who had been slinking around like a mushroom, vaguely understood. Besides Vermouth, the events here were clearly connected to Uzo. If that were the case, then the sudden appearance of Okiya Subaru, his subordinate... or rather, his pitiful trophy, wasn't so surprising.
Thinking of this, Shuichi Akai temporarily released the "sniper" he was holding down.
——As an informant he developed in the organization before, Subaru Okiya was originally in the FBI's witness protection program.
Under normal circumstances, this graduate student should have changed his name and arrived in the United States, living a peaceful and comfortable life.
Unfortunately, however, a small mistake occurred when the deportation plan was implemented - during the transit in London, Subaru Okiya completely lost contact with the FBI.
When he appeared in the FBI's sight again, this graduate student had unfortunately become Uzo's subordinate again and refused to contact the FBI.
...In theory, this kind of traitor should be stabbed three times and hung on the wall of the FBI base as a warning to others.
But theory is just theory after all. In fact, after some investigation, Shuichi Akai had to admit: their FBI also had many omissions in this matter. Subaru Okiya's failure to escape and fell into the clutches of the devil was inseparable from their previous arrangements.
This subtle but real guilt prevented Shuichi Akai from breaking the sniper's limbs as originally planned.
After thinking about it, he took out the tranquilizer gun he had been using recently and shot the temporary sniper again.
"The one who acted as a sniper turned out to be Subaru Okiya." Akai Shuichi looked down and thought secretly, "Where is the sniper that Vermouth loved to use now?"
…
Ai Haibara squatted on the ground, hugging her knees, and saw that the weird "Dr. Arata" and the equally weird "Judy" seemed to have reached some kind of tacit understanding.
After a while, the two moved their positions, and "Doctor Shinchu" stood next to the vehicle, while "Judy" covered her blood-stained windbreaker and moved her position to stand between "Doctor Shinchu" and the vehicle.
——The two people and the sniper on the top of the container were standing in a straight line. It looked like the sniper from above wanted to shoot "Judy", but Judy cleverly used "Doctor Shinichi" to block herself.
"Are they performing a 'stalemate'?" Huiyuan Ai looked left and right, vaguely feeling that she seemed a little redundant. But at this moment, "Doctor Shinde" suddenly raised the muzzle of his gun and pointed it at her.
Huiyuan Ai: “!”
In addition to her fear, she felt inexplicably relieved, and had a vague sense of relief as if a lonely gear had been put where it belonged.
The three awake people were in a stalemate for a moment, no one spoke, and a hint of awkwardness floated in the air on the beach.
In the end, it was the professional Vermouth who first held up the scene. She covered her "gunshot wound" with one hand, raised the muzzle of the gun with the other hand, and pointed it at Dr. Akai: "Don't move!"
"Thanks to your body, I'm now in the blind spot of the sniper rifle. Stand still here and don't move, otherwise I will shoot immediately." "Judy" held the gun and glanced at "Doctor Shinde" as if warning, then said to Huibara Ai, "Don't be afraid, come here."
Huiyuan Ai: “…”
