When he heard Bourbon across from him say this name calmly, Belmod's pupils suddenly shrank, and a hint of panic appeared on his expression.
Kudo Shinichi is the cool guy’s true identity!
Why did Rum investigate Kudo Shinichi?
Could it be that he already knows the cool guy’s true identity?
Belmode had an extremely bad premonition in his heart, but in order to deal with Bourbon, he still pretended to be calm and asked: "How is your investigation going?"
Toru Amuro here just mentioned it casually along with Bermod's question, but he didn't expect that Bermod could ask him more questions, so he asked: "What? Do you care?"
"No, just asking..."
Belmode is not frank, and cannot be frank.
It was impossible for Toru Amuro to completely betray the landlord of the house where he lived. He said perfunctorily: "The high school detective seems to be quite famous and a popular figure in front of the police, but he suddenly disappeared some time ago..."
"So currently I'm only looking up basic information that is relatively easy to find."
Hearing that Toru Amuro had made little progress on this matter, Bermod was slightly relieved.
"Well, if there's nothing else, let's get it over with."
"Um."
After hanging up the phone, Toru Amuro edited a text message with one hand while controlling the steering wheel.
【Curaçao, Rum confidant】
Sending object: Qin Zhibo.
At the same time, Belmode, who was sitting on the chair, fell into a sleepless state.
A phone call from Toru Amuro not only disturbed her sweet dreams, but also let her inadvertently know that Rum suddenly started to care about Kudo Shinichi.
As the second-in-command of the organization, Rumaki would not suddenly investigate Kudo Shinichi for no reason.
Why?
In the dim room, that cold and charming face was very serious.
Suddenly, Belmod's eyes changed slightly, and there was a hint of surprise in his expression.
Could it be that two days ago, when Irish undercover agents entered the Metropolitan Police Department to investigate, they discovered something unexpected?
As a member of the organization's undercover list recovery plan, Belmode was well aware of Ireland's undercover plan.
Following the instructions of "that lord", she provided all kinds of support to Ireland as much as possible.
But the mission ultimately failed.
In order to prevent the organization's affairs from being exposed, Ireland was dealt with urgently.
Fortunately, the police did not catch the murderer and did not obtain the key memory card.
But "that adult" said that there was something fishy about the matter, and would not send anyone to recover the memory card, but would find other ways to deal with the matter.
Belmode was not sure about "that adult's" judgment, but she had personally seen the famous detective Qin Zhibo appear near the underground parking lot of Mihua Shopping Mall.
At that time, she followed Ireland's instructions and went to the rice flower mall to wait for the appearance of Minoru Fukase and tried to take him away from the police.
But just when her plan was about to succeed, she was interrupted by an unknown person who suddenly appeared.
The other party intercepted her and took away Fukase Minoru's backpack.
After the mission failed, Belmod left from the main entrance of the mall and waited for the police to leave on the street opposite the mall, then entered the parking lot and drove his car out.
However, he encountered the famous detective Qin Zhibo, whom the police had not notified, appearing near the incident site.
This made Belmode suspicious and informed Ireland of the matter.
Belmode was not sure how Ireland handled this matter, but the end result was that Ireland was urgently dealt with because his identity was exposed, and he died in Tokyo Tower.
If Ireland listened to his suspicions, launched an investigation, and found Conan from the famous detective...
Bermod, who often pays attention to the active performance of his "godson", knows that the famous detective Qin Zhibo and Conan are usually very close.
It's also possible that someone in the Metropolitan Police leaked the news and exposed that Kudo Shinichi was still alive.
Because in fact, some people around Kudo Shinichi know that Kudo Shinichi is still alive.
In short, Ireland's level is not high enough to convey this message directly to "that lord", and Rum is the highest level he can contact.
As the top leader of the organization, Rum learned that the person the organization had assassinated was still alive, so he naturally wanted to deal with it.
And this task was handed over to Bourbon.
Belmod sorted out this whole train of thought in his mind, and the more he thought about it, the more likely it became that it was possible.
Now that she learned that her "godson" was being targeted by the organization's second-in-command, as a "godmother", she had to do something.
Direct reminder?
No.
Bourbon is one of the top intelligence experts in the organization. Once the cool guy learns that he is being targeted and makes some extraordinary moves, the resulting disturbance will definitely attract his attention.
And with the cool guy's character, he will definitely not choose to escape, but take the initiative.
Besides, now Rum only asks Bourbon to investigate the intelligence of "Kudo Shinichi", not "Edogawa Conan".
This shows that Rum cannot determine the current identity of Kudo Shinichi.
In this case, it is better to be still than to move.
So get rid of the bourbon?
Although bourbon is my partner, there is nothing I cannot give up for the safety of Cool Guy.
But after Belmode thought about it for a while, he felt that it was not possible.
Now Bourbon is shouldering the tasks assigned by Rum, which is equivalent to "half of the emperor's mission".
If Bourbon is disposed of at this time, Rum will also doubt whether he has an agenda.
In addition, Bourbon is his partner, someone he can often talk to, and he can test the progress of his investigation at any time.
If Bourbon dies and Rum is replaced by someone else to investigate the matter of "Kudo Shinichi", then he will be completely helpless.
For example, "Curaçao" and "Binga" are top-notch intelligence experts in the organization.
But these people are purely from Rum's side. As long as it is a task assigned by Rum, they will unswervingly complete it.
If it were these people who went to investigate "Kudo Shinichi", he would have neither a chance to intervene nor a chance to do anything.
Therefore, the best solution to this matter is to maintain the status quo.
Let Bourbon investigate "Kudo Shinichi" as long as he can't find anything, he can keep delaying it.
And once Bourbon gets closer to the truth, he will take action to deal with Bourbon himself as a last resort.
In short, the true identity of the "godson" must never be discovered!
Just when Belmode thought hard for a long time and finally thought of a response strategy, the phone on the table suddenly rang again.
Belmod frowned slightly, thinking it was Bourbon calling again.
But when the call was picked up, a sound completely opposite to Bourbon came from the other side.
"Run immediately to the vicinity of the Capital Expressway Route 11 viaduct."
The voice on the other side of the phone was cold and had a hint of vicissitudes of life.
"Curaçao had some accidents while performing its mission and is now missing."
"Lord Rum ordered us to find her as soon as possible..."
After hearing Scotch's explanation on the phone, Belmode was a little surprised.
Bourbon called just now and mentioned the incident in Curacao. How come something happened in Curacao so quickly?
"What mission is Curacao performing?" Belmod asked.
"A list of members of an undercover organization was stolen from the police station in Curacao."
"However, she herself had an accident while being chased by the police, and her whereabouts are now unknown."
List of undercover organizations?
Belmod's face was shocked. Does the police department still have such a thing?
It turns out that not only does he have an undercover list on his side, but he also has one on the opposite side.
"I know, I'll be there soon."
beep.
Scotch on the other side didn't say anything nonsense and hung up the phone directly.
But after hanging up the phone, Belmode did not immediately get dressed. Instead, she frowned slightly and continued to think.
Bourbon just called and mentioned Curacao, and then something happened in Curacao.
Could it be such a coincidence?
Although Bourbon said he was asking about rumors about Rum, judging from the results, what he got was information about Curacao.
"That adult" has the most classic teaching——
Judging a person's thoughts is not based on what he said or what he did...
It depends on what he gets in the end.
If Bourbon's original purpose was to find out information about Curacao, then why now?
Curacao had an accident after breaking into the police station, and his whereabouts are now unknown...
Is your name on that undercover organization's list?
Bourbon…
…
On the way to Route 11 in the capital, several police cars were lining up in a line and racing on the road.
Qin Zhibo was sitting in the passenger seat of the second police car when his cell phone rang suddenly.
He took out his cell phone to check and found that it was a text message from Toru Amuro.
【Curaçao, Rum confidant】
Qin Zhibo thought for a moment and realized that this should be the information Toru Amuro had obtained from the organization.
That person's code name is Curacao.
It seems that he is indeed no ordinary NOC, and is even a confidant of the organization's second-in-command.
Then it is very necessary to catch this person.
Not only can it prevent the undercover list from leaking out, but it can also obtain a lot of first-hand information about the organization.
After a while, the police team arrived at the bridge where the accident occurred.
Before the police convoy arrived, the Metropolitan Police Department's Investigation Section 3, which received calls from the masses, had already arrived.
But Yuya Kazami used his police privileges to stop him.
After all, this matter involves the National Police Agency, and ordinary police officers cannot intervene without authorization.
In the bleak evening breeze, Qin Zhibo put his hands in his coat pockets and scanned the scene.
Although he had not seen the surveillance video at the scene, he had already guessed what happened from the broken fence on the bridge and the wreckage of the accident below.
Although the car driven by Curacao crashed through the viaduct and fell onto the bridge below, the vehicle was seriously damaged, lost control, crashed through the roadside fence, and fell into the seawater under the bridge.
Qin Zhibo walked to the gap in the bridge's broken fence and stretched his head to look at the dark water below.
This is Tokyo Bay, a place where people often sink in movies.
But Curacao is a top agent and has enough reaction time from the moment the vehicle loses control to crashing off the bridge.
She should have taken advantage of the car's fall to get out of the car, jump into the sea, and swim out.
At this time, Feng Jian Yuya stepped forward from behind and said: "I have asked the rescue team to come and salvage..."
"That's not necessary."
Qin Zhibo shook his head and looked at the area around Tokyo Bay.
"It's better to move all the manpower to the shore and start searching from the shore first..."
Tokyo Bay is surrounded by a large warehouse area. If you swim ashore from Curacao, you will come here first.
If Curacao falls into the water, the communication equipment and signaling equipment carried with him will be soaked in water and become unusable.
In this case, her accomplices would not know her specific location and would not be able to respond in a short period of time.
So there's a good chance Curacao is still on the road now.
But some time has passed now, and she may have left the warehouse area.
or……
Qin Zhibo tried to use the ID photo and the finding spell to search for the location of Curacao.
But there was no result.
He looked towards the sea further away, where there was an artificial island emitting colorful light beams.
I turned on the navigator and checked it out, and found out that it was the Toto Aquarium, a famous attraction.
Qin Zhibo visually measured the distance and felt that Curacao could definitely walk there.
But considering the fact that she fell into the water and was disheveled, she would definitely be noticed immediately if she entered a crowded place.
Moreover, places like amusement parks are slightly inconsistent with the style of organization members.
Based on the above two points, it is unlikely to go there to contact the organization personnel.
"Let's stick to the warehouse area. Surround this place first..."
"In addition to paying attention to unfamiliar vehicles approaching, you should also be careful in the sky."
"By the way, prepare the lighting equipment in advance. Maybe the other side will do something to cause a power outage."
With the experience of helicopter strafing Tokyo Tower two days ago, Qin Zhibo now believes that the organization is no longer the organization it used to be.
Is it because the plan is about to be realized, so he is becoming more and more unscrupulous?
…
The next day.
On Highway 9 in the capital, a yellow Beetle was driving at a constant speed with a full load.
In the passenger seat of the car, a boy with a "zongzi-headed" head grabbed a lot of popcorn and stuffed it into his mouth.
After a while, the bag bottomed out.
"Doctor, we've finished eating the snacks~"
Ayumi, who was looking at the scenery in the back seat, heard this and asked worriedly: "Have you eaten everything?"
"Even our share was eaten?" Mitsuhiko exclaimed, stood up, grabbed the chair, and looked towards the front seat.
I saw that the ground on the front passenger seat was full of leftover food bags, and the little bit left was still stuck around Gentai's mouth.
"Excuse me……"
Yuantai didn't feel much regret about eating alone, she just smiled and scratched her head.
"Didn't we agree that we should all eat together?"
"Well~ I'm suddenly hungry..."
"It's coming soon, don't be so angry, I'll just buy more..."
The two quarreled, and Dr. Ali could only get in the middle to smooth things over.
At the same time, as the two parents of this small group, Conan and Haibara Ai didn't care at all about the bickering among the children.
Conan is wearing headphones and watching news videos on his mobile phone.
Hui Yuan Ai tilted his head and asked with a sweet smile: "What are you looking at? Are you so interested?"
Conan turned the phone sideways to Haibara Ai at an angle, "It was a sudden large-scale power outage along the Capital Bay. The cause of the accident has not yet been announced, so I feel a little strange..."
