Chapter 3498 3510 [Tenacious Bourbon]
Although the enthusiastic driver seemed to have something to hide, and there seemed to be a vaguely familiar aura about him... but before Haibara Ai could observe more closely, Jiang Xia had already opened the car door and got in.
“…” Haibara Ai had no choice but to hurry up and catch up. Soon, the car door closed and the vehicle drove all the way to downtown Tokyo.
…
pier.
Seeing Jiang Xia walking away, Vodka breathed a sigh of relief.
He stretched his shoulders, straightened himself up, and was about to let go and argue with the rescue team, but at this moment, a pair of hands reached out from the side and shook his hands tightly.
Vodka: “……?”
He turned his head and saw Inspector Megure with an excited look on his face.
"Mr. Yamada!" Inspector Megure showed his most polite and enthusiastic attitude to this kind-hearted citizen who had helped them countless times, with gratitude on his face. "I can't believe those helicopters and fishing boats were actually called for by you. You really helped a lot."
"Ah? Oh, really?" Vodka felt uncomfortable being held by the cop he used to hate the most. He smiled dryly for a moment, then pulled his hand back as naturally as possible, wiping it quietly while politely saying, "It's all my job."
"No, no, if it weren't for the team you led, many people would have drowned on the bridge..." Inspector Megure changed the subject while chatting:
"Come to think of it, I heard from the survivors that the rescue team you brought seemed to be looking for someone. Who were you looking for? You specifically called the rescue team here. Did you know something was going to happen here?"
Vodka: “…”
He knew that these cops who were on the same page with Wuzo were definitely not easy to deal with!
...But fortunately, Wu Zo has endured it for so long, and now he is also very generous with his vodka.
"That's right." Vodka cleared his throat:
"You should have heard that the murderer on the Full Moon Ship said that he was instructed by a guy named 'Vermouth' - that Vermouth not only sent some things to the murderer, but also sent corresponding invitations to Mr. Jiangxia and Mr. Maori.
"After I heard about the invitation letter, I felt very uneasy. So, to be on the safe side and to protect Mr. Jiang Xia, I invited a rescue team to accompany him. I didn't expect that something would actually happen in the end."
Inspector Megure suddenly realized: "I see."
But even though he clearly felt something was wrong, he didn't stop Jiang Xia from getting on the boat. Instead, he spent a lot of money to hire a rescue team to escort her. This Mr. Yamada... is indeed a die-hard fan of Jiang Xia!
"He doesn't interfere with his idols' hobbies or adventures, and he does his best to protect them. I don't know much about these fans, but Mr. Yamada really has good intentions."
Inspector Megure was actually a little moved for a moment, but after a while, he thought about the important matter again: "The person the rescue team was looking for before..."
Vodka: “…”
This police officer was so easy to fool when facing ordinary murderers, why is he suddenly thinking now? Targeting, this is simply naked targeting!
Fortunately, this problem did not stump him.
"Oh, those two people." Vodka said seriously, "Jiang Xia and I were chatting on the deck just now, and suddenly we heard some strange movements in the water. We turned on the flashlight and saw two people floating in the sea."
"One of them was holding a strange-shaped object that looked like a pistol. The dock was in chaos, and I was worried some lawless criminal had fallen into the sea, so I asked the rescue team to subdue him and pull him out... But unfortunately, he got away."
"Oh, I see." Inspector Megure was initially surprised by Mr. Yamada's decisiveness, but when he heard the outcome, he couldn't help but feel disappointed.
but……
"Two people?" Inspector Megure, "One ran away, and the other one..."
Vodka: "The other one went after him."
Mumu Police Department: "..."
He really wanted to slap his thigh and ask loudly, "Why didn't you stop them?", but fortunately, his reason told him that this was not the obligation of a caring citizen, and certainly not the obligation of the rescue team.
——Mr. Yamada and the rescue team he led have already helped the police a lot. I can't shamelessly ask for more.
Thinking of this, Inspector Megure could only suppress his inner disappointment, once again expressed his gratitude to the enthusiastic person in front of him, and then turned around and continued to work with a bitter face.
Finally getting rid of him, Vodka breathed a sigh of relief.
"Come to think of it, I wonder if Bourbon has caught up with Akai Shuichi." Vodka stroked his chin and thought quietly:
"It would be better if they died together... No, Bourbon should stay alive for now. Without him, such an important actor, what will I do if the task of bravely pursuing the enemy falls on me next time?"
An organizational cadre withdrew a curse and began to pray silently for the unfortunate colleague.
…
"A-choo!"
In downtown Tokyo, Toru Amuro rubbed his nose, suspecting he had a cold.
But now was obviously not the time to care about such a small matter. He quickly put aside the chill at his back and made a phone call: "How is it, did you catch him?"
After a brief silence, Yuya Kazami's guilty voice came through the receiver: "I'm sorry, Mr. Furuya, we've blocked off a commercial area, but we haven't been able to track him down yet. There are many exits here, and I suspect... I suspect he's gone offline."
Toru Amuro: "..."
Although disappointed, he found with mixed feelings that he was not surprised at all by the situation.
——If he was caught so easily by his own subordinates when he had the upper hand... then he would start to doubt whether the captured rookie was the "silver bullet" that the organization feared.
He sighed, "Tell me the location."
Although the hope is slim, I still have to go and look for it - what if I really find it?
After hanging up the phone, Toru Amuro glanced at the new message on his phone, turned around and drove towards his destination.
On the way, he remembered something, shook his wet scarf, and pulled off an inconspicuous piece of machinery from it.
——This is the core part of Conan's bow-tie voice changer. Amuro Toru originally wanted to let a colleague study it, but before he could take it over, he received a call from Vermouth asking for his help.
In order not to miss any information, Amuro Toru simply modified the appearance of the voice changer and used it to play the role of "Dr. Shinichi", and now...
He looked at the short-circuited device that had a faint smell of burnt food after falling into the sea, and put it to his mouth and said a few words without giving up.
Unfortunately, the sound that came out was still the sound that "Amuro Toru" should have, but it was broken.
