Chapter 3472 3484 [Fishing out Uzo]
Although Vermouth was shot in one hand and one foot, she still had one leg and one arm left to move. In the end, with the support of her tenacious will, she successfully moved into the car driven by "Dr. Shinde".
— Bourbon rushed in too quickly, leaving Shuichi Akai no time to fire a couple more shots. In that respect, I should thank Bourbon. Also…
"He really hates Akai Shuichi as much as the rumors say."
Vermouth glanced through the car window at the two men fighting fiercely in front of her: "That's right, undercover agents and traitors are harmful to the organization. From this perspective, Bourbon is quite loyal."
Although she acknowledged the other party's loyalty, Vermouth had no intention of stepping forward to help. She sat in the driver's seat, looked at the unfamiliar steering wheel, and prepared to drive away.
This was not the car that the "new doctor" used to drive - Bourbon was even more suspicious than her and refused to take the car she provided.
So before Bourbon pretended to be "Dr. Newcomer", Vermouth had to pretend to have a minor car accident, send the original car for repair, and let Bourbon drive the car he got himself.
"This guy must be suffering from paranoia." Vermouth commented secretly.
However, considering Bourbon's experiences during this period, especially his many setbacks in vehicle-related matters...it is not completely incomprehensible.
No matter what, when two sides clash, one benefits. Even though she had just been shot twice, Vermouth felt much better as she watched the two men still fighting.
"Goodbye, Bourbon." Vermouth smiled gleefully, her foot on the accelerator, "I hope you can still see the sun tomorrow."
Just as he finished speaking, out of the blue, from the shadows of the two men fighting, a black muzzle of a gun pointed straight at him.
"?!" Vermouth suddenly fell to the ground. A bullet pierced through the front window of the car, passed through her previous position, and lodged itself firmly in the headrest of the driver's seat.
Vermouth was covered in cold sweat, and she didn't care to watch the show anymore, and quickly looked at the two children. Then she was furious to find that Haibara Ai, who had just dragged Conan into the car under her coercion, had actually taken advantage of her distraction from the battle in front of her and quietly returned to the outside of the car, and was now dragging Conan out of the car.
The mini scientist was halfway through the transport operation. As he was exerting his strength, he suddenly met Vermouth's eyes. Haibara Ai was startled and froze in place.
At the same time, Shuichi Akai pulled the trigger again, and there were several gunshots, but it was unknown where the bullets hit.
Vermouth didn't have time to settle accounts with this bottle of traitorous wine. She stepped on the accelerator and shook off Haibara Ai, while reaching out and pulling Conan into the car.
With a swish, Haibara Ai lowered her head and found that all she had left in her hand was a piece of disguised face skin.
The car started up with a roar, its tires squeaking and leaving black scratches on the ground. The car drifted 180 degrees and then stepped on the accelerator and sped away.
Before leaving, a hand reached out from the driver's seat. Vermouth stared at the rearview mirror and fired two shots. Judy's used car was hit in the fuel tank and exploded.
Two figures rushed out before being engulfed by the flames, rolled to their feet, and stood facing each other again.
Looking at the car running away, then at the gun in Akai Shuichi's hand, Amuro Toru sighed: "Waste."
Akai Shuichi, who failed to stop the car: "..."
It was beyond his expectation that Vermouth could escape - because he had never expected that two bullets would hit the same tire, or even the same part, in succession, and that the tire did not deflate or explode, but instead stubbornly bounced off the bullets one by one.
"Your tires..." Akai Shuichi couldn't help but say, "Why are they so strong?"
"..." Amuro Toru's face darkened as he recalled some unpleasant memories. He didn't want to talk any more and rushed forward again with his fist raised.
Shuichi Akai sighed and could only fight back, but he lacked interest: the people he wanted to catch had all run away, so why fight?
As for the remaining Bourbon in front of him... although there is no solid evidence, Shuichi Akai always feels that this guy in front of him is probably also an undercover.
But if they retreated like this, Bourbon's identity might be questioned. Although this dark-skinned former colleague was not an FBI agent, it was rare for an undercover agent to take root in the organization, and Akai Shuichi was of course happy to see it happen.
After much deliberation, Akai Shuichi finally decided to proceed with the original plan: since he was already here, he couldn't just end it so hastily. He also didn't forget that there might be a Uzo behind today's events.
——If we can catch Wuzo in the next period of time, even if we just let him poke his head out, today's trip will be worthwhile.
…
The two men were fighting fiercely, and the second-hand car belonging to Judy next to them was also burning fiercely.
But this passionate scene no longer concerned Vermouth. She gritted her teeth and drove the car a little further, shaking off any possible pursuers. Only then did she breathe a sigh of relief and lean back in her chair.
Just then, she felt something long and thin hit her.
"?" They had just reached a wild forest, and for the moment, no one was in sight of their pursuers. Vermouth stopped the car, fumbled around for a moment, and pulled out a pen from the gap between herself and the seat.
Remembering the noise she heard while escaping, Vermouth understood: Bourbon had probably thrown this pen on the car. She had just made a sharp turn, causing the car to shake violently, even knocking her off balance. The pen had simply landed on her seat.
But... why does this pen look so familiar?
As a semi-intelligence agent, Vermouth's memory was undoubtedly quite good. After a moment's confusion, she suddenly remembered: Isn't this the pen that Uzo had taken from her when she was still "New Doctor"?
"How did this money end up in Bourbon's, or the second 'New Doctor's' car?"
As the question arose, the answer suddenly came to Vermouth's mind - was there any need to ask? It must be that the idiot Bourbon had an intersection with Jiang Xia when he was playing the role of "Doctor Shinchu", and even took a pen from him!
"How many times did this bastard run into Jiang Xia while playing the role of 'Dr. Shin'?" Vermouth was filled with murderous intent:
"Although I didn't explicitly tell him to hide from Jiang Xia, I did tell him to avoid detectives and the police. But now it seems that this guy not only completely disobeyed my request, but even concealed all the information after he disobeyed!"
While she was trying her best to avoid Jiang Xia and play the role of "Judy", hoping that her plan could be concealed from Wu Zuo and get rid of Shirley, what on earth was that stupid teammate she hired at a high price doing?
——He walked back and forth arrogantly under Uzo’s nose, and no one knew how many times he went back and forth.
As soon as he thought about it, Belmode felt dizzy and almost fainted from anger.
