Chapter 169 Twenty-five Vigilantes

Furutani Rei came out of the elevator with two cups of coffee and walked straight to the boy who was sitting in front of the computer entering data: "How is it, do you need my help?"

"Not for now." Chi Jiangna Yue didn't even raise his head, but took his cup steadily, "I can handle it."

The former sighed, pulled over a chair and sat down: "I know you can do this by yourself, but aka, starting from the day you came back, you only slept for an hour and a half in the past two days, right?"

If it weren't for the fact that he couldn't defeat Rei Fōtani, he would have wanted to knock the little devil unconscious and send him to bed to rest several times when he came to the base.

Akajinazuki's fingers on the keyboard shrank consciously. He could accurately sense from Furukaya Rei's words that the other party's patience was about to be exhausted by his refusal to cooperate.

"Actually, if you hadn't mentioned it, I would have gone up too." There was no trace of worry on Akajyo's face. He said calmly, "The data sent from Uesugi has just been entered. The council will probably be much more well-behaved during this period, so..."

The boy uttered an exclamation, turned around and began to search among the pile of documents at hand. After a long while, he finally held up a plane ticket under the curious gaze of Furiya Rei: "So, let's go on vacation!"

The policeman took it and looked at it, and was almost amused: "Leaving in two hours? Why didn't you wait an hour and a half before giving it to me?"

Chijiang Nayue, who had really been planning this, looked away and whistled in a distorted tone guiltily.

"But didn't we just come back from the sea?" Furiya Ling's expression changed, and he frowned again, and asked worriedly, "Is it really okay to leave Tokyo so frequently?"

He trusted his friend's judgment and knew that the [Parliament] would not easily appear in front of them during this period of time, but there was more than one [Parliament] in the underground world of Tokyo.

"Hmm? It's not 'we', it's you." The chairman said this with a righteous look, "Of course I will stay in the manor. Tokyo still needs me now, so I can't leave."

Furiya Ling's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately understood something: "How many are there this time?"

"One."

Chi Jiang Na Yue answered immediately and smiled brightly at her friend: "I'll wait for you at home, Brother Zero."

When he found out that Akae Nayue was about to send him out, Furutani Rei knew that there must be something waiting for him at the destination of the ticket, and it might be not much different from this cruise trip.

That is to say, this time when he goes out, he will definitely meet other friends from this world. Akae Natsuki said it was one, so excluding the three who are going to work in the Metropolitan Police Department, the only one left is his childhood friend Morobushi Kagemitsu who is still undercover in the organization.

Life is not easy, and Ling Furuya sighed again.

It wasn't that he found it troublesome, after all, this was the way he had chosen to help the little devil. He just suddenly remembered something and became worried.

That is, they both kept the secret from Chi Jiang Na Yue...they dreamed about each other's journey to another world.

No matter how well he acts, he will definitely be laughed at by Hiro and the others when he returns!

Watching Furiya Rei go upstairs to pack her luggage, Akajiang Nayue really stopped the work at hand and stretched out in the chair to stretch her muscles.

Previously on the cruise ship, he had indeed casually chatted with Rei Furuya about the purpose of his boarding the ship. In fact, as Rei Furuya complained at the time, that was the least important part of all his purposes.

Akae Nazuki discovered the connection between Asahi Katsuyoshi and the Parliament two days before he received the threat from Yamamoto, so he originally planned to use this cruise trip to persuade Asahi Katsuyoshi to defect like Uesugi did, and turn him into another thorn in the Parliament.

But he changed his plan the next night when he was annoyed by the parliament's human wave tactics.

Sawaki Kouhei is the most important character in Plan B.

However, Chi Jiang Nayue was not interested in caring about the completed plan. He was now mainly looking forward to achieving another goal.

I chose to send Zero out two days after they returned from the cruise, of course, in order to take advantage of the keeper's absence to clean up and grab the little detective who had fallen into my trap!

Chijiang Nayue hummed a song and tapped the keyboard a few last times.

Two lines of words could be vaguely seen on the screen, which read:

【Sawaki Kouhei

Current status: Hiding]

—

[“I can help you survive, and I can also cure your sense of taste right now.”

The vigilante said calmly in his ear: "You already know what organization is behind Asahi Shengyi. They will not let you go."

Sawaki Kouhei's struggle paused for a moment.

It was only after he killed Asahi Katsuyoshi that he found out that the other party was a member of the mysterious council. Sawaki Kohei is a smart man, and he knew what Wuming said the moment he said it.

But what's the use? Even though he knew he would be retaliated by the parliament, Sawaki Kohei had no other choice but to not expose himself as the murderer. So just now he planned to kill Nana Koyama in desperation and then commit suicide.

After hearing Wuming's words, Sawaki Kouhei was shaken for a few seconds, then calmed down: "What about the request? I don't believe you will let a 'criminal' like me go easily."

Free things are often the most valuable. Although Sawaki Kouhei was very tempted by the conditions offered by the other party, he at least knew that he had nothing to offer to make this deal with the vigilante.

But what if?

As Conan said, Sawaki Kouhei is a person who pursues perfection pathologically, and whether he is arrested and brought to justice or dies in the murder caused by his own revenge, it is not perfect enough.

He couldn't accept that he died so easily and without anyone paying attention to him.

After asking this question, Sawaki Kouhei noticed with his sharp eyes that Wuming actually narrowed his eyes and smiled silently.

"My request is..."]

With a click, the door of the interrogation room opened from the outside.

Sawaki Kouhei sat behind the table with an expressionless face, his hands and feet were handcuffed tightly, making him completely unable to move.

But he still looked so calm and composed, even though he had actually been detained in the interrogation room of the police station as a murderer for two days and two nights.

It was indeed the Metropolitan Police Department who came to take over that day. However, halfway through the transfer of him by the Metropolitan Police Department, the public security officers of the Police Department intervened and brought Sawaki Kohei here on the grounds that he was involved in a case that the public security officers were in charge of.

During this period, Sawaki Kohei did not make any sound and cooperated with all their actions indifferently, as if he had made up his mind not to speak.

Fortunately, the police didn't know what they were afraid of, and just left him there. They still gave him three meals a day, and they didn't rush to interrogate him. So Sawaki Kohei unexpectedly spent the past two days quite comfortably. He even guessed that Wuming was helping him secretly, but there was no evidence.

This is the first time in two days that the police have shown signs of wanting to inquire.

or……

He thought: It should be that the [parliament] had finally finished its discussion and came to seek "revenge" on him.

The people who came were dressed no differently from the police officers who had arrested Sawaki Kohei before, but they didn't wait for the other party to get close. Sawaki Kohei, who had remained silent, raised his head and responded for the first time.

Anyone who saw the elegant-looking Sawaki Kohei would not immediately think of the burning flame of revenge beneath his skin. But at this moment, the man who had killed Asahi Katsuyoshi with his own hands raised the corners of his lips to the visitor for the first time.

"I want to join the parliament." Sawaki Kohei made no secret of the environment he was in, and said calmly, as if the shackles on his hands and feet did not exist.

His acting skills were really good, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to play the innocent man for such a long time in front of a group of detectives. At least he thought it was enough to deceive the idiot in front of him now.

Sure enough, Sawaki Kohei saw surprise and astonishment on the visitor's face. The other party did not expect him to say this. At the same time, he also took advantage of this flaw to clearly see the □□ that the visitor had just taken out from behind.

Everything is just as Wuming said.

Sawaki Kohei's teeth almost trembled from the cold. He shook his head and finally believed the vigilante. He looked into the eyes of the man sent by the Parliament and repeated the words in his memory after slightly modifying them: "I discovered the secret of Wuming."

[“My request is that you join the council.” Wuming whispered, the weak current sound of the voice changer made him sound more like an urban legend, “The chips you can give them are ‘discovering Wuming’s secret’ and…”]

"And I know where Asahi Katsuyoshi hid the list." Sawaki Kohei said, and emphasized again, "So, I want to join the parliament."

[After saying this, Wuming's smile disappeared. Before Zemu Gongping realized that he was about to leave, Wuming left one last sentence.]

[“This is your last chance to choose - choose to live as a human being, or die as a monster of this city.”]

"What? Mr. Sawaki committed suicide in the police station in the early morning?"

Conan looked at Uncle Maori in shock: "How is this possible?"

Let’s not talk about why Sawaki Kouhei was in the police station. Just talking about committing suicide out of fear of crime... Conan doesn’t think that person is the type to do such a thing, not to mention that Sawaki Kouhei still had that expression before they separated that day.

How is this possible!

Uncle Maori's expression was also very ugly. He slammed the newspaper on the table with a sour face and let Conan read the news report on it.

"Those guys...are really getting more and more rampant." The former policeman gritted his teeth and muttered, obviously seeing some evil intentions behind this "suicide out of fear of crime", "Tsk!"

Conan fell into a brief moment of contemplation.

He felt that something was wrong. It was impossible for Sawaki Kohei to commit suicide out of fear of crime. And if it was Asahi Katsuyoshi who wanted to silence the witness, it would be even more impossible for Wuming, who had arrested this man personally, to let Sawaki Kohei die.

Then this report is very exaggerated. Either Sawaki Kohei committed suicide by being shot multiple times in the back, or Sawaki Kohei was not dead at all and the report was just a cover-up to deceive people!

Uncle Maori was about to say something when he looked up and saw Conan had already grabbed the skateboard beside the sofa and ran out of the office, shouting as he ran: "I'm going to play at the doctor's house and won't be back tonight, uncle!"

Uncle Maori twitched his lips and punched the table again in dissatisfaction: "This brat...!"

On second thought, he felt something was wrong.

"Hey, stop right there." Uncle Maori stood up quickly, "Isn't Dr. Agasa still in the hospital?"

So whose doctor's house is this kid going to play at?
