"Although it's a bit dangerous, we can only brave the snowstorm and sneak out from behind..."
Dr. A Li was about to take Shinichi away when he heard an angry voice coming from the phone:
"Itakura!"
Dr. A Li looked back and was stunned.
Conan held the bow-tie voice changer in one hand and the receiver in the other, and said in the voice of Taku Itakura:
"Ah, I'm so sorry, I couldn't find the phone in the dark..."
Then, Dr. Agasa watched in horror as Shinichi, whom he had watched grow up, pretended to be Taku Itakura and started negotiating with Vodka.
On the other side, Hanhan Vodka heard the familiar voice of Taku Itakura, but he did not raise any suspicion, and was tricked out of the time and place of the transaction by Conan.
Even when "Taku Itakura" said that he had a bad heart and was going to the hospital for a check-up tomorrow night, Vodka "generously" changed the transaction time to four o'clock this morning.
In his opinion, Taku Itakura will be killed by them after the deal is completed anyway. If this guy wants to die tonight, then he might as well let him do it.
Finally, Conan put down the receiver with relief and hung up the phone.
In the conversation just now, he successfully got the other party to take the bait.
Now, he has mastered important information - four hours later, at 4 o'clock in the morning, members of the organization will go to the agreed location to conduct transactions with Itakura Taku.
The transaction place is in front of a locker on the bottom floor of a station called "Xianqiao" on the Dongdu Subway.
At the same time, he also confirmed that there were no organization members around the villa monitoring the place. Vodka knew that there was someone in the villa, and the information should have been automatically destroyed through emails.
He dragged Dr. A Li out of the villa through the back door and returned to the doctor's Beetle.
Naturally, he also took out the unfinished software and checks that Itakura Taku left in the villa and brought them to the car, hoping to use the doctor's laptop in the car to figure out what kind of software it was.
.
If he could find evidence of the black organization's crimes, he could anonymously report that an illegal transaction would take place tonight, allowing the police to set up an ambush at Xianqiao Station in advance and catch all the organization members present at the scene.
But after getting in the car, he discovered that the unfinished software had also been set with a password.
In this way, it seems that one can only know that people from the organization will show up, but cannot get assistance from the police due to insufficient evidence.
Edogawa Conan gritted his teeth: "It seems that is the only way, although it is a bit dangerous..."
"Hey, hey, you don't want to meet them directly, do you?"
Dr. A Li finally understood why Yuan Huaiyu said that tonight would be the best time to take action - Shinichi really wanted to pull out the fox tail of those people regardless of the danger!
Dr. Ali knows that this style of behavior may not be dangerous once or twice, but in the long run, as long as the organization cannot be annihilated in one fell swoop, it will definitely encounter a lot of trouble.
"Crack!"
Suddenly, there was a muffled sound from the bottom of the Beetle that was driving on the road, and then the car body began to shake violently.
"Wait...this can't be..."
It happened that at this time, one of the Beetle's tires burst.
Fortunately, there were no vehicles on the road now. Dr. Ali hurriedly slowed down the car evenly and stopped on the side of the road.
"Sure enough, you should prepare a spare tire..." Dr. Ali got out of the car and took a look, and it turned out that the tire had a puncture.
The cold wind was howling, mixed with large flakes of snow. He turned to Conan and said:
"In this case, I have no choice but to call the nearest gas station and ask them to send the tires over immediately..."
"I think we can just sit in the car and wait slowly. This must be God's will, telling Shinichi not to do dangerous things..."
Conan's attitude was very firm: "If you do this, you will miss the trading time!"
Just at this moment, the lights of a car appeared on the road in front of the two of them.
Just as Conan was about to take two steps forward and wave his hand to stop the car, his expression suddenly changed and he quickly backed away.
The speed of this car is a little too fast!
The car wrapped in wind and snow whizzed past the two of them in the next second, bringing with it a biting cold wind.
"Are you really not afraid of an accident if you drive at such a high speed on a snowy day?"
Conan muttered, but was surprised to find that the car that was driving past them seemed to slow down, turned around, and slowly stopped in front of him and Dr. A Li.
Seeing this, Conan walked up in three steps at a time, knocked on the car door, and said:
"Hello! Could you please give us a ride... huh?"
He saw the car window slowly lowering, and a familiar face that he didn't want to see at this time came into his eyes.
"Hey, I didn't expect to meet you here... Edogawa-san. Are you going to hitchhike?"
Conan looked at Yuanhuaiyu dumbfounded.
"...Teacher Yuan, why are you here?" He asked calmly on the surface, but there was already a turmoil in his heart.
"Oh, the weather is nice today, I'm going for a ride." Yuan Huaiyu looked as usual.
After hearing this answer, Edogawa Conan started to complain crazily in his heart.
The weather is nice? Can you get out of the car and blow in the wind and try again?
And is your driving speed called a joyride? Professional racers would probably say "don't die" when they see you!
Also, do you dare to touch your conscience and say that your appearance here today is not a coincidence? Do you dare?
But it was definitely impossible for him to say these words just like that.
"Oh, that's right." He said, pretending to be an innocent primary school student, "Teacher Yuan, Dr. Agasa's car has a flat tire, can you please drive us back to Tokyo?"
"Okay, no problem. Get in the car, it's quite warm."
Yuan Huaiyu looked at Dr. Ali behind Conan and exchanged glances with him.
Conan opened the car door and let out a soft moan.
"Teacher Yuan, has anyone else been in your car before us?"
With careful observation, he soon discovered that there seemed to be some subtle traces worthy of concern inside the car.
For example, there were traces of the woman's hair, violent collisions, and even a few drops of wet blood in an inconspicuous place on the back seat.
After he held his breath and got into the car, he caught sight of the iron-black object placed on the passenger seat out of the corner of his eye, and alarm bells rang in his heart.
pistol!
On such a windy and snowy night, Yuan Huaiyu, a member of the organization, was carrying a gun, and there were signs of people sitting in the car. It looked like he had just experienced something shady.
Due to his excessive nervousness, he did not realize for a moment that the pistol was actually just a very realistic prop.
