Chapter 98 The fate of the loyal ministers of the winery
When Miwako Sato, who was close to accepting her fate, saw her immediate boss, Megure Juzo, walking out from the direction of the bathroom, her figure, who was about to get off work, suddenly froze in place——
"Sato, get ready and go to the scene."
"go to the scene……?"
"Brother Maori called, saying that something went wrong at Mantiantian Game Company's game launch conference. Let's go there quickly. I'll take people there now. You and Brother Uehara will come over later."
"Understood, police department."
"Um."
Mumu Shisan left in a hurry, and not long after, a figure with an equally unattractive face gradually walked out from the direction of the bathroom.
"Let's go, Uehara, Megure Police Department asked me to wait for you." Miwako Sato greeted the man like a normal person, as if she had forgotten about the bet.
In the elevator, Uehara Katsumi, who was watching his nose and nose and keeping silent, stood up straight, his eyes looking straight ahead——
Until, a hand appears.
The white palms were spread out in front of him. Although Miwako Sato didn't say a word, the movement of her index finger could already explain everything.
"Actually, do you think I would have won if I didn't go to the toilet? It's just the last two minutes."
While curling his lips, he placed three 5,000 denominations and the 10,000 denomination he was supposed to export on the woman's palm. Uehara Katsumi pretended to be fine.
"uh-huh?"
Miwako Sato did not withdraw her hand, but continued to move her right index finger, indicating that this was not enough.
"Didn't I give it all to you?"
"Don't think I didn't see the follow-up and they forced me to lose again."
"..."
Uehara Katsuki took out a few more banknotes from his pocket and put them on them.
Miwako Sato counted the bills in her hand and made sure there was no missing one: "Do you want to treat me to dinner tonight?"
"No, I have to go to bed, I have no appetite."
Facing the fairly bright sunset, a Mazda and an EVO roared out of the Metropolitan Police Department parking lot.
……………………………………………………
"Vodka?"
"Brother, I just asked Tequila to confirm the contents of the box, but he suddenly became silent. The sound that stopped suddenly sounded like an explosion..."
Mihua Town, Daikoku Building, rooftop bar.
Vodka, who could no longer get in touch with Tequila, had a few drops of cold sweat on his forehead, and the blond man sitting in the middle of the booth smoking a cigarette had a cold look in his eyes.
bomb.
"Brother, the police have intervened. Our people have seen the police car coming. It's Megure Thirteen, and that Uehara Katsumi."
"Katsumi Uehara?"
The beautiful girl swaying her cocktail swayed her legs slightly and looked at the man sitting directly opposite her with playful eyes: "This policeman looks different from the one you met in the amusement park before. Qin liquor."
"Blow this place up."
Gin, who had put out his cigarette butt, slowly stood up from the sofa and gave Vodka an order that stunned him.
"Yes, but brother, here is the organization's information——."
"Just do it."
Gin stood still and turned sideways to look back. The cold murderous intent made Vodka swallow back the words that had come to his mouth.
"I understand, brother."
As the most loyal member of Gin's organization, Vodka immediately began preparations to blow up the bar after receiving the order.
As one of the organization's intelligence points, if you want to bury the secrets here with Tequila's death, blowing it up is undoubtedly the fastest way.
It's just that the sacrifice is a bit big.
"Tsk, Tequila actually died like that." Bermode, who also stood up from the sofa, casually put out his cigarette and shook his head with regret.
After all, he was an old Jianghu who got a code name, but he could be killed by an ordinary person with a bomb.
"I'll go to the scene and see what's going on."
Picking up the helmet placed on the marble table, after the disguise, Belmode and Gin passed by.
It would be fine if it was just an accident, but if it is not an accident, it means someone is deliberately targeting the organization.
"Okay, okay."
Knowing that he could not offend either of the two bosses, Vodka kept his head down and worked quietly. He knew his position within the organization very well.
A few minutes later, the antique car Porsche 356A and a silver and black heavy motorcycle slowly drove out of the parking lot and walked in the opposite direction——
Mantiantian Game Exhibition Center.
"Megure Police Department! Here!"
His face was not very good, and Mouri Kogoro's whole body exuded a sense of discomfort after a hangover, but after seeing Megure Thirteen and others who rushed to the scene, he still waved to them.
Beside him, Conan, who was being held by Mao Lilan, saw Uehara Katsumi who was following Megure Thirteen at a glance, and his heart instantly calmed down after witnessing the members of the black organization being bombed to death.
Katsumi Uehara?
Has he returned to work after his vacation?
This man's powers of observation were enough to make him cautious, as it would be bad if anything was discovered. His previous nonsense was only possible thanks to the almighty Dr. Ali.
"Eh? It's Mr. Uehara! Has Mr. Uehara finished his vacation?"
Also seeing Katsumi Uehara, whom she hadn't seen for a long time, Mao Lilan's attitude became much more enthusiastic: "Sonoko said last time that she planned to invite you to the Christmas party, but it's a pity that you didn't come in the end."
"I'm sorry too, but I have other appointments that day." Uehara Katsumi said hello to Mouri Kogoro and Mouri Ran, and his eyes fell on the well-behaved Conan.
"Long time no see, Conan-kun."
Noticing the man's eyes sizing him up, Conan felt nervous and quickly raised his head with a big, cute smile: "Long time no see, Uehara Police Department."
"Brother Maori, what happened here?" After smelling the smell of explosions in the air, and recalling some bad memories, Mumu Shisan glanced at his subordinates who were now alive and kicking, and asked.
"Police department, it's like this. Someone was killed by a bomb in the toilet."
"Blowed to death in the toilet?"
As soon as these words came out, several policemen, including Katsuki Uehara, looked tense.
"Police Department, the scene has been cleared. Because of the bomb, the body is difficult to identify."
Under the leadership of the forensics department personnel, the group of people who removed the cordon immediately entered the crime scene——
In the crowd, the disguised Belmode just planned to see what Tequila was all about, but unexpectedly saw a person——
Maorilan.
"No, that child..."
Bellmode, who was best friends with Kudo Yukiko, noticed the little boy being held by Mao Lilan, and for some reason, he felt a vague sense of familiarity.
"The bomb was not particularly powerful, and the load-bearing wall did not collapse. Of course, it may also be because of the distance."
Katsuki Uehara's voice immediately interrupted Bermod's thinking. He was wearing gloves and picking up the remaining bricks and rubble in the ruins, looking around from time to time——
"However, judging from the debris left at the scene, the materials used in this bomb were not professional."
Under the eyes of Megure Shisan, Uehara Katsumi slowly stood up and said.
"Where's the body?"
"over there."
Following the guidance of the forensics class, Katsuki Uehara came to the tragic corpse and frowned at the appearance of its flesh and blood -
Mantiantian Game Company Exhibition...
The man in black clothes...
Kogoro Mori and Conan...
A series of information gradually outlined a name in his mind - Tequila, a rare loyal minister in the winery.
"hiss……"
This death is really tragic...
"Uehara Police Department, there is nothing on the deceased that can help us confirm his identity." The forensics section officer, who thought Uehara Katsumi was uncomfortable with the tragic appearance of the body, said after covering it with a white cloth again.
Belmode, who saw everything in his eyes, narrowed his eyes slightly, moved his attention away from Mao Lilan and the child beside her, and closely observed Katsumi Uehara's every move.
