Chapter 671 How to Use Codename Cadres Correctly
However, no matter how easy it is, you still need to be more careful and guard against Vermouth.
This woman wouldn't run around for no reason. She took the trouble to come here and disguised herself as a high school girl. She must have some ulterior motive.
…
Next to him, Matsuda Oni was casually exuding an apple-flavored murderous aura. For some reason, he suddenly felt a lot more relaxed, as if some invisible pot had been lifted.
It looked around in confusion but couldn't find the reason. However, it discovered that after the psychic master made a scissors hand gesture to its old classmate, the old classmate suddenly began to exude murderous aura.
"......?" Although he was a little confused, Matsuda Jinpei still acted before he thought. He followed his heart and floated to Amuro Toru, clinging to the rare source of murderous aura, and pulling out the coffee-flavored murderous aura that it liked more.
…
At the same time, Vermouth saw Jiang Xia pushing her away and running to Bourbon to communicate. Her eyes condensed slightly, and then she looked at Amuro Toru with a gloomy look.
Jiang Xia stood between the two people, feeling the murderous aura rising from both sides, and even felt that the dead leaves under his feet became beautiful.
Come to think of it, when the boss is surrounded by members of a legitimate organization, he can actually become like Gin and Vermouth, exuding a permanent high-end murderous aura. He really has great potential. How many surprises does this undercover agent have that he doesn't know about?
Coming to the Amuro Detective Agency as a part-time job was truly one of the best decisions he had ever made.
…
Silent smoke seemed to permeate the woods.
In addition to the alert Conan, Kogoro Mouri also slowly realized that something was wrong.
He twirled the mustache on his lips and secretly glanced at Amuro Toru, and found that his fellow detective seemed to be in a bad mood.
Remembering that he had just crashed someone's new car, Kogoro Mouri coughed twice guiltily and took the initiative to break the silence.
He started the conversation, "You guys are here because of the movie 'Red Maple Leaves in Winter', right?"
Although Kogoro Mori had heard Toru Amuro say that they had a commission to do when they met by chance at a car accident scene outside Tokyo, that was a week ago.
Now it seems that Toru Amuro and Jiang Xia have completed a commission, so they came here to enjoy the scenery.
Otherwise, judging from the leisurely state of these two people just now, no matter how Kogoro Maori looked at it, he didn't think they were handling the commission.
Amuro Toru was addressed by him, and his attention to Vermouth was temporarily interrupted.
He withdrew his attention and didn't want to explain, so he nodded casually and pretended that it was true.
Toru Amuro had indeed heard of the hit drama "Red Maple Leaves in Winter" - when working, if the guests were not around, colleagues would often chat without stopping. Toru Amuro himself had a good memory, so he remembered the relevant information while listening.
If I remember correctly, this is a romantic drama.
The opening scene is about a rich lady's red handkerchief being blown away by the wind and stuck on a tree branch. The male protagonist helps her get it off. After the two get to know each other, they quickly become a couple. However, the male protagonist is framed by his boss due to jealousy and is forced to flee.
After a series of twists and turns, at the end of the story, the missing male protagonist sent a telegram to the rich lady, which read "I'm waiting for you under the red maple leaves in Chukong."
The young lady immediately remembered the red leaf mountain where they met.
However, "first sky" refers specifically to the sky on the morning of January 1st, but in this season, there is only white snow on the mountains, and there are no red maples as mentioned in the telegram.
The young lady went up the mountain early in the morning, stepped on the snow and searched back and forth, but she never saw the hero. As the cold wind blew, she gradually thought that the meaning of the telegram might be a metaphor for their reunion, just like the red maple trees on January 1, which was impossible. The telegram sent by the hero might just be telling her not to wait any longer.
But just as she was about to go back, she accidentally saw a red handkerchief hanging on a branch in the distance, fluttering in the wind.
The male protagonist came out from behind the boulder under the tree, and the two met again under the red handkerchief.
"That tree and the rock are very artistically chosen!" Maori Kogoro said as he straightened his collar, took out a camera from his bag, and handed it to Maori Ran. "Take a picture of me later, and remember to put me and that hateful male protagonist in the same place. When we go back, remove him and only leave Miss Yoko and me."
Miss Yoko?
When Toru Amuro heard this familiar name, he thought for a moment and remembered that this drama seemed to be starring Yoko Kinoshita.
Hmm? Wait, isn't this the idol that Kazami likes?
Thinking of this, Toru Amuro fell silent.
No wonder this morning, when he told his public security subordinates that they didn't need to follow him any further, Yuya Kazami looked very regretful.
At that time, Amuro Toru thought that his spirit of dedication had awakened, but now it seems that he was just overthinking... Tsk, wouldn't Kazami also come here to "tour the holy land"? I have to remind him to avoid running into Vermouth again.
While thinking, Toru Amuro took out his cell phone.
And before opening the email, I habitually look around to avoid being peeped at the screen.
As he looked at it, he suddenly noticed something nearby.
"I suddenly remembered something and I have to go back."
Toru Amuro turned to the others and said, "You guys go first. I'll come find you later."
——This is the good thing about private detectives. They are usually mysterious. When looking for excuses, they don’t need to make up any specific reasons. They can just say “the work requires confidentiality”.
There were six people in their group, four of whom were detectives.
After Amuro Toru said this, no one asked him.
The others nodded and continued walking up the mountain.
…
After their figures disappeared into the layers of woods.
Toru Amuro came out from behind the tree, raised his head and looked at the treetops.
——There was a red handkerchief tied to a branch there, blending in among the red leaves and making it inconspicuous.
It is not surprising to see the appearance of red handkerchiefs in a filming location related to the "red handkerchief".
But what Amuro Toru was concerned about was the condition of the handkerchief.
It looked very old and faded badly. The part with the knot was tightly attached to the branch, and the branch was even slightly narrowed. It looked very old.
But the drama "Red Maple Leaves in Winter" has just been aired. It was only a year away from filming, so how could there be a red handkerchief tied here in advance?
This strange time difference is really worrying.
As for the long time...from the relevant information about Watanuki Tatsuzo, some crucial things did happen to Watanuki Tatsuzo a few years ago.
“……”Although there was no evidence, this accidental coincidence still caught Toru Amuro's attention.
