Noticing her boyfriend's actions, Sato Miwako, who was still a little shy, also noticed that something was wrong. Her emotions suddenly calmed down, she frowned and said, "What happened?"
"Something may have happened to Shui Wu Liannai."
Katsuki Uehara's face was visibly ugly, but he didn't hide it from his girlfriend.
Miwako Sato's expression changed when she heard the name, and she subconsciously picked up the mobile phone on the table to call Megure Thirteen, but Katsumi Uehara stopped her with a hand——
"?"
"Conan told me, his identity was exposed." Uehara Katsumi shook his phone and lowered his voice, telling a reason that made his girlfriend's expression suddenly change.
"what happened?"
"On the way, I said that I went to Dr. A Li's house and found a bug customized by the winery in his house. Haihara Ai discovered it."
Uehara Katsumi, who quickly regained his composure, stood up immediately and walked ahead. Miwako Sato followed closely behind her. The good news she originally wanted to tell her boyfriend was suppressed by the sudden bad news.
Why?
Why was Dr. A Li's house bugged at this time?
Uehara Katsumi, who drove the car silently, clutched the steering wheel with both hands, and obvious bulging veins could be seen on the back of his hands due to excessive force.
If I remember correctly, the original timeline should be after Haihara Ai appeared——
No, that's not right.
If it was Gin, then he couldn't be forced to leave Tokyo, which meant it was still Belmode...
Otherwise, if you start to doubt Edogawa Conan's true identity, the bug should be installed at the Mori Detective Agency.
"Kenji, the phone still can't be reached."
In the co-pilot, Miwako Sato, who was still dialing Reina Mizuna's number, looked solemn.
Various possibilities kept floating through Uehara Katsuki's mind, and he said in a heavy voice: "My question is too careless."
The death of his best friend had a great impact on his emotions. At that time, the only thing left in his mind was this incident, so he ignored Dr. A Li and did not recover until the incident was over.
Miwako Sato, who pursed her lips, raised her hand and patted her boyfriend on the shoulder: "This is not your responsibility, no one expected this to happen.
"I continued to call, and we had agreed at the beginning that we would not call her if there was nothing important. Although she has not answered the call, she has not prompted to turn off the phone, indicating that something may not have happened yet.
"As long as we keep calling, and she sees the number of missed calls, she should know she's in danger."
Sato Miwako, who consoled her boyfriend with words, analyzed calmly, while Uehara Katsumi, who had a sullen face, said nothing more. There was another EVO running a red light at high speed on the Tokyo elevated highway.
……………………………………………………
England, London, in a high-rise apartment.
The pattering of light rain is somewhat unique to this city. Sitting at the dining table, Belmode held a knife and fork in his hands, elegantly cutting the steak on the plate, and slowly brought it into his mouth to chew.
Directly opposite her, Mizuno Reina, who was frowning, faced a table of delicacies made from top-quality ingredients, but had no appetite at all.
"Why are you here, Belmod? If I remember correctly, this should be my personal stronghold."
"Don't keep a straight face and eat something first."
Belmod put down his knife and fork and crossed his legs. A simple denim short T outlined his hot figure. He picked up the goblet at hand and shook it gently. He persuaded with a smile: "Don't waste it, this wagyu
It’s really good. I can order more of that steakhouse on Thirty-sixth Street in the future.”
"Is there a new mission? If I remember correctly, you should be in Paris now and not break into my house without permission."
"Paris is now run by Gin, and the people who blew up the organization's stronghold are extremely good at tracking and counter-tracking technology."
Belmode, who took a sip of the red wine in his glass, was somewhat gloating when talking about this incident: "The other party seemed to have some information about the organization's stronghold, and Gin suspected that the organization had a new mole."
Hearing this, Shui Wulian's heart moved: "A new mole?"
"Well, before Gin went to Paris, Rum sent his henchman Curacao there. Unfortunately, when Gin arrived in Paris, he got the news that Curacao had been bombed into the hospital. Okay.
There is no life-threatening danger.
"According to Curacao, the other party should have ambushed near the explosion point in advance, but her itinerary for that day is absolutely confidential."
Putting down the goblet, Belmode's left index finger placed on the table repeatedly touched the edge of the table, and smiled: "I have no interest in catching moles, so I left."
Shui Wulian nodded in understanding: "So, why did you come to me?"
"Just chatting and having a meal. You and I have been cleared of suspicion now. Bourbon has gone to Japan again. I can't think of anything to do to relax for a while, so I came to you to chat."
Belmod shrugged noncommittally: "Of course, the most important thing is that I have a new task that needs your help."
"Your attitude of barging in without permission is not like asking for help." Shui Wulian's eyelids twitched, he put down the knife and fork he had just picked up, and asked in a solemn voice.
Belmode, who noticed her movements, held his forehead with one hand and shook his head helplessly: "I won't be able to tell you for a while. Lend me your cell phone. Use your cell phone to call me and let him tell you in person.
.”
"Who? Boss?"
Hearing this, Shui Wulian was shocked and immediately became energetic.
She has been infiltrating this criminal organization for so long, and even her father died for it. Although she has reached the top of the organization, she still doesn't even know what the mysterious Boss looks like and has never seen a single face.
Could it be that the Tokyo team had completely gained her trust?
"Yes, Boss wants to see you."
Belmode nodded, took out a box of women's cigarettes from his trouser pocket, lowered his head to light it, took a deep sip, and then slowly exhaled a puff of smoke: "But the identity of the Boss is extremely mysterious and needs to be kept secret, so, you know
.”
"Boss suddenly wants to see me. Is there something big involved?"
"Gin."
Belmod shook his cigarette ashes and shook his legs and toes, saying, "The organization suffered a lot in Tokyo this time, and Gin even single-handedly sent Vodka to jail.
"And just when he arrived in Paris, something happened to Curacao who was investigating the crime scene. Coincidentally, Gin was one of the people who knew Curacao's itinerary that day.
"The most important thing is that Gin has been working hard to catch the moles over the years, but the number of moles has increased instead of decreasing. The boss has always suspected this."
"..."
Shuiwu Reina was stunned on the spot.
What does this mean, both inside and outside the words?
"Do you think Gin is the mole?" She asked subconsciously.
"It's not me, it's Boss who thinks it." Tsk-tsk, wagging his finger, Belmode denied: "Boss doesn't have much time, hurry up and finish your meal and follow me."
"good."
Although she still had doubts in her heart, Suiwu Lina did not ask any more questions. Instead, after taking a few bites, she put down her knife and fork and followed Belmod, who was said to be in a hurry.
