Conan: I am definitely not a kid

Chapter 48 Preparing for a cruise mission
  The turmoil caused by the assassination of the Yayoshikai leader lasted for more than ten days. Mori Yura's injuries have completely recovered and he has resumed field missions.

Kotake Kazuo's son, Kotake Shouhiko, inherited his father's position and became the new leader of the Yayoshikai.

The first thing General Yan did after he came to power was to reverse the business blow caused by drug trafficking by cadres. While he asked people to continue communicating with the authorities, he contacted the supplier and paid the full payment for the last order of robbed goods to protect the interests of the supplier and maintain cooperation between the two parties.

Before Kazuo Kotake was killed, although the business of the Yayoshikai was also affected, as long as the position of the No. 1 gang remained unchanged, even if smuggling activities were suspended for a period of time, apart from short-term profit losses, it would not actually cause any harm to the Yayoshikai. The dangers of breaking your muscles and bones.

Compared with solving the business problem immediately, it is most important to find out why Ashida's men stabbed Yayoshi Kai in the back. Is there a traitor in the gang? Or did someone use some means to induce them?

If these are not investigated clearly, even if the problem of the smuggling route is temporarily solved, the other party will inevitably resort to the same tricks later. Not only will it appear that the Uyoshi Society is very passive, but repeated setbacks will easily shake the morale of the military and undermine the majesty of the Uyoshi Society.

Unfortunately, until Kazuo Kotake was assassinated, there was still no clue as to who was an undercover agent or a traitor in the gang, and there was no trace of the enemy hiding in secret.

After Kotake Shouhiko came to power, he shifted his focus, not because this issue was no longer important. On the contrary, the killing of Kotake Kazuo proved that the enemy was indeed targeting Yayoshikai in advance.

But today's Wujihui is different from the past. The turmoil caused by the change of leader is inevitable. Partners and competitors from all walks of life are waiting to see the ability of the new leader. As long as the decline of Yajikai does not end, suppliers will not let go of their doubts for a day, and opponents will also think that Yajikai, which has experienced such a big change, has lost its original capabilities and has become ready to take action.

And this may be exactly what the person behind the plan is doing.

The ancient military commander Yan has passed the age of youth and vigour, so he naturally knows what is most important at this time. In order to appease the supplier's doubts, he specially arranged a cruise ship and invited the supplier to meet on the high seas to discuss continued cooperation.

The whiskey group's next goal is to sabotage this maritime negotiation.

"Bourbon has confirmed that he can get on the ship with the people from the Island Expo." Moriyuro said, passing the photos of the cruise ship, the negotiation time, and the supplier's information to Lai and Scotland.

The supplier was a white man named Ronald. Scotland had no prior knowledge of him. As an FBI undercover agent, Ley had some impression of him.

Ronald's reputation on the road is average. He has no concept of contracts. He only cares about money and not people. He is famous for taking both black and white. It's just that although he does business with the underworld, he never touches anyone's life. Any murder and arson are done by the gang at a high price.

The only advantage of Ronald is that he never cares whether the transaction partner is a large international organization or a down-and-out rural gangster. As long as it is a business that provides money, he will treat them equally and never consider the business to be small. There are no barriers to entry for transactions with him.

To a certain extent, he can be considered a typical businessman.

"This cruise ship was specially prepared by the Yaji Club to receive Ronald. How do we get on it?" Rai asked.

What Ley didn't say was that he thought it was outrageous for Bowen to go up there with people from the Island Expo.

He originally thought that Bourbon would follow his habit of infiltrating during previous missions, disguised as a waiter or other staff, but he didn't expect that he would board the ship as a member of the Island Expo.

It seems that this cruise trip is a little different from what he imagined.

"This is Ronald's request." Moriyuro said, "Although I didn't hear the exact words, according to the informant, the other party's general idea was——" ˆ ˆ ˆ "Recently, I have found that many friends are very enthusiastic about having sex with him. Business, Ronald is planning to meet potential business partners during this trip to expand the sales of his products."

"Wujihui can't stop the supplier from contacting the customer. He simply proposed that we meet on the cruise ship together to save Ronald from having to make a few more trips. Of course, if the business is concluded, Wujihui will have the channel advantage , you can provide transportation services to the other party and take a commission as a fee."

Scotland was stunned: "We've already talked about it on the Yajihui's cruise ship, how can anyone refuse to agree?"

It's completely forced buying and selling.

However, despite the recent setback in business, Yoshikai is still the largest gang in the local area and indeed has the confidence to do so.

"Island Expo has already contacted Ronald last time, and is boarding the ship as a customer this time. Ley, you board the ship with me as a retail investor; Scotland, you have never shown up during this operation, please change Identity, disguised as a staff member and sneaked in."

The two of them had no objections to this arrangement, and the topic finally turned to the ultimate goal of this big mission.

Ley asked: "What is the business we are going to discuss?"

He asked seemingly casually, but in fact his mind was running very fast.

Until now, the Whiskey Team has been working independently under Mori Yuro's arrangement since it carried out this mission. This is the first time that four codename members have appeared together at the same mission site.

It can be seen that the goal to be achieved in this mission must be the focus of the organization.

The organization is eyeing the Wujihui, and now it seems that it is for this maritime smuggling route, but I don’t know what the ultimate purpose of snatching this exposed route is? The organization has always had its own transportation routes. Why must it seize the local gang's route this time?

Judging from the current information, the organization's arrangement is to let Dao Expo replace Yajihui and take over this smuggling line, and then Bourbon will cooperate with outsiders to let Dao Expo transport contraband to the organization. But since the organization has the ability to place informants in the Wujihui who can learn confidential information, why not communicate directly with the Wujihui and let the Wujihui take over the transportation channel? What exactly is the difference between these two gangsters?
  When discussing business with suppliers this time, will Mori Yura mention the goods that the organization is preparing to transport?

Rai asked this question tentatively with all kinds of questions.

Although Scotland was not the one who asked the question, he was very concerned about Moriyuro's answer and secretly increased his attention.

Mori Yura did not let the two undercover agents get their wish.

"Red wine, whiskey, whatever you like, this is just an excuse." Moriyuro said, "Of course, the best we can do is negotiate. Maintaining another connection will help our future business."

So what is the real business?
  This question immediately came to the minds of the two undercover agents, but no one asked. During this period of time, the two of them had a clear understanding of Mori Yuro's style. When the mission required it, Mori Yuro was No information will be disclosed in advance.

The secret temptation only surfaced for a moment before sinking again, waiting for a more suitable opportunity.
