Daily life of a spy in the world of Conan

Given the situation at that time, my dad definitely had at least three ways to escape.

Before, I was blinded by my own ignorance and thought that the zoo had done something wrong.

Now that I think about it, given my dad’s caution and intelligence, he must have known it in advance.

Rather than saying that my father died accidentally, it would be better to say that... he moved from the light to the dark in order to avoid the zoo's attention.

Kaito's thoughts suddenly became clear, as if he had thought of something.

"Speaking of that figure on the tower crane that day..."

A light appeared in Kaito's eyes.

"Well, you should already know about your father's affairs. As for the zoo..."

Xia Chuan waved his hand and said, "I don't know much about the situation in the zoo. You should have known their purpose of snatching the gemstones. Although it's a little outrageous, it's indeed as they said."

It’s okay if it’s outrageous, since the witch has seen it before, Kaito’s ability to accept it is already very strong.

Magicians exist, so it makes sense for him to have some secret recipes for longevity, and he's not some famous detective with a pseudo-scientific worldview.

"It's okay, it's not too outrageous, Koizumi..."

Kaito was just about to say that the magician Koizumi Hongzi was even more outrageous, but then he remembered that Natsukawa was just an ordinary person. If he told the other party that magicians existed, ordinary people might not be able to accept it.

"Koizumi Hongzi, I know her. I met her before at Sanni Temple." Xiachuan's expression suddenly became a little gossipy.

"By the way, Nakamori Aoko and Koizumi Akako, green and red peppers, which one do you like?"

"Haha, stop joking. That Koizumi Hongzi girl is not likable at all."

"Oh, so you just like your childhood sweetheart more?"

"Of course not!" Kaito slammed the table and stood up, then realized that he had lost his composure and sat down again, "How could I possibly like that kind of idiot?"

"Oh, so you've been keeping her hanging because her father is Officer Nakamori of the Metropolitan Police Department, a policeman who specializes in targeting Kaito Kid. You deceived Nakamori Aoko's feelings to get information. How is this different from an emotional cheat?"

Kaito's eyes were somewhat evasive. What he said... did make sense.

But, he didn't mean it.

Isn't it Qingzi who invites him every time?

As a boy, he should never reject a girl easily, especially since Aoko is his childhood sweetheart (bah)...good friend.

It’s just that Officer Nakamori himself is not trustworthy enough and often casually talks about some of the police’s arrangements against Kaito Kid.

Natsukawa obviously saw through Kaito's thoughts and pointed out: "Didn't you use the other party to enter the scene or pretend to be the other party to enter the scene to check the terrain?"

Ah this...

Kaito avoided her gaze. Whether it would happen or not is another matter, but he didn't want to talk about it now.

"By the way, the person you disguised yourself as that day was from the winery?"

"Hmm?" Xia Chuan frowned.

Kaito looked a little embarrassed, and after a long while he finally asked, "I feel like the guy you disguised yourself as looks a bit like someone."

"Who?" Natsukawa sat up straight, his ears perked up, waiting for Kaito to explain.

Regarding Tequila's identity, he couldn't help but become serious.

"It was Snake who pretended to be a police officer during the last incident with the Brilliant Flower. His name means - Snake!"

"he?"

Xia Chuan was stunned. He knew this guy. Every time he appeared, he was beaten up by Kaito. However, this guy was also strong. He didn't die even when the train crashed into the wall at high speed when passing through a tunnel.

It would be better to call him cockroach rather than Snake.

Noticing Natsukawa’s confusion, Kaito asked curiously, “You know the zoo, but you don’t know him?

This guy looks a bit like the Tequila you disguised yourself as, and the code name also has the word "snake" in it, does this represent something?"

Xia Chuan leaned back on the sofa, crossed his legs, and thought for a while but couldn't figure out the relationship between the two.

He had indeed never seen Snake before. Does the other person look very similar to Tequila?

It should have been him during the last Brilliant Flower, but at that time he was wearing a disguise mask and his real appearance could not be seen.

If you think about the painting styles of Magic Kaito and Detective Conan, they are indeed somewhat similar.

However, the code names "Snake" and "Tequila" should just be accidents. The zoo uses snake and the distillery uses the name of tequila. There is nothing wrong with that.

Think about it again, Kaito is similar to Kudo, and Aoko is similar to Ran.

So Snake and Tequila are alike, probably because Aoyama is lazy and just copied the painting style, right?

Xia Chuan couldn't give an answer, but he took this point to heart.

Since the two are similar, maybe they are related.

In the original plot, Tequila died as soon as he appeared, and there was no information about the opponent at all.

Kaito left disappointed when he saw Natsukawa and couldn't give an answer.

He was a little disappointed. He thought Xiachuan knew something about Snake and wanted to get something out of him.

But at least he knew something.

My own father is not dead!

He also guessed the reason why his father hid behind the scenes, which must be related to the zoo.

After watching Kaito leave, Xiachuan sat on the floor of the entrance hall and looked at Bond and said, "Such a big man sneaked in, and you didn't react at all?

You don't bark or yell, and you even wag your tail. Whose dog are you?"

Xia Chuan rubbed the dog's head indignantly. It was a waste of such a big body. It didn't have any of the might of a great white bear.

Tai Ritian would at least bark when he saw people, but Bond would only wag his tail when he saw people. He had never seen the other party bark at anyone.

"Wang?"

Bond tilted his head, blinked, and went back to sleep with his head down, not even wagging his tail.

A frown appeared on Xia Chuan's forehead, but he couldn't do anything about the other party, so he slammed the door and left.

When he arrived at Baijiu Pharmaceutical, he saw Vodka in the conference room.

This guy was studying with Cohen and Chianti about suitable sniping positions at the transaction site.

"Tequila, you're here."

Cohen and Chianti greeted Xiachuan one after another.

There was no way. After these two days, the two realized that Tequila's status had already risen to a higher level and was no longer the same as before.

When one is away for three days, one should look at him with new eyes. Now Tequila has become Gin's confidant, whom they cannot reach, and its status is equal to that of Vodka.

Neither of them is stupid. Compared to Vodka who only knows how to drive, Tequila who can use his brain came later, but he is ahead and is more valued by Gin.

This can be seen from the fact that Tequila is the main person in charge of this operation.

"Ah."

Xia Chuan nodded, looking aloof.

With a height of nearly two meters, looking down at the three people, there is a sense of oppression.

Vodka coughed lightly, feeling unhappy that his status was challenged.

Considering that the other party was late for the agreed time, it was obvious that he did not take me seriously.

The friendship they had when they drank together had vanished, and now they were begging for food under Gin's roof and were competitors.

"Tequila, you're here just in time. How is the sniper arrangement at the transaction site this time?"

The location was chosen by Natsukawa and Gin last night, on the rooftop of an abandoned building in the suburbs.

The view is wide and there are other abandoned buildings waiting to be demolished nearby. Now the three of them have selected the rooftops of two buildings that are higher than the transaction site as sniper positions.

Vodka thought his arrangement was very reasonable and smiled at Xiachuan provocatively.

Xia Chuan glanced at the marks on the map and the photos of the building.

The three abandoned buildings are close to each other. The selected trading building has a total of 35 floors. The other two buildings have 41 and 44 floors respectively, which are suitable as sniper positions.

But sniping on the rooftop is too open.

If Suzuki Jirokichi comes by helicopter, he will be able to see everything clearly.

"Don't go on the rooftop, choose a floor higher than the rooftop of the trading building. Then you can just find a window and hide there.

The trading building has been abandoned for a long time and has no elevator. Do you think Suzuki Jirokichi, an old man in his fifties or sixties, can climb up?

If the other party chooses to arrive at the scene by helicopter, you will all be discovered.

Although the purpose of deploying snipers is to prevent any mistakes, we cannot let them discover us right from the start."

The three of them were stunned. They had not considered this.

Thirty-five flights of stairs, someone like Suzuki Jirokichi would definitely not be able to endure such suffering, and might even take a helicopter to get there.

Placing snipers on the floors will not only make them less likely to be discovered, but will also provide more time for retreat.

Cohen nodded in admiration and said, "As expected of Tequila, it's you. No wonder Gin made you the person in charge of this operation."

hehe......

Xia Chuan rolled his eyes. There was no sense of incongruity at all when this fence-sitter praised someone. He thought the other party was a cold-blooded killer, but now it seems that he was just that.

This guy mocked him a lot during his last clash with the FBI, but today he's actually trying to flatter him.

However, although nice words are annoying, everyone loves to hear them. Xia Chuan naturally would not mock the other party at this time. He nodded and continued:

"The sniper scope you use at that time must be resistant to reflections. Put a layer of anti-glare film on the scope. It doesn't matter if the accuracy is reduced, but you have to make sure you can't be discovered. If something really goes wrong, it won't be too late to use a normal sniper scope."

"I understand." ×2

Seeing the two snipers being conquered by Tequila's arrangement in a few minutes, Vodka held back his dissatisfaction.

"Brother, are you going tonight?" Xia Chuan asked Vodka.

Hearing the other party learning to call him "big brother", Vodka pouted uncomfortably again.

What a stupid agave, I didn’t even notice it before!

"Go, he will meet us nearby."

That's good!

Xia Chuan breathed a sigh of relief.

He originally thought that as long as he paid attention to the weather forecast, he would know when Shirley would escape. But when Frank checked, he found that it would rain in the evenings in the next few days...

This was too outrageous, he suspected that it was the will of the science school that was targeting him! This caused him to be completely confused about when Shirley would become Haibara Ai.

Difficult to handle.

Xiachuan felt a headache when he thought about having to find excuses every day to get Gin to leave Baijiu Pharmaceutical.

This is too difficult.

But there is no other way, no matter how difficult it is, we have to find a way to solve it.

After discussing the specific plan with the three people, Xia Chuan went directly to the utility room.

Soon, he saw Shirley with tear marks on her face and lifeless eyes.

Shirley had shackles on her hands and was sitting weakly on the ground, leaning against the rack like a lamb to be slaughtered.

She didn't even look up when she heard the door open. There was no life in her eyes, and she seemed determined to die.

Xia Chuan glanced around the house and felt relieved only after confirming that there was no surveillance.

"I didn't sleep all night, and my eyes are all dark circles."

He sat down in front of Shirley, took a look at his left hand, which had blood circulation problems due to being suspended for a long time, and shook his head, saying, "Your sister probably doesn't want to see you become like this. Isn't it good to be alive? Why do you have to seek death?"

Shirley didn't move, and her hoarse hum seemed to mock Xia Chuan for meddling in other people's business.

(Monthly ticket, please~)

Chapter 187 The Miracle of Reversing Life Form

The room was silent, with only Shirley's sobs and gasps.
