【Chapter 289】The Man Who Was
As Conan said, Eiyu Hondo is back. A crisp dark blue suit and tie didn't hide his natural stunner. It is no exaggeration to say that Hondo Eiyu usually stood in place, and the irresistible aura attracted everyone's attention.
No one picked up the plane, and the stunned young man looked a little lonely. It was a little cold, and he pulled the suitcase and pulled his neckline tighter with his free hands.
Then he took two steps forward.
Why does it feel light in your hands?
Looking back, Eiyu Hondo couldn't help but let out a wail—his suitcase and the trolley had "broken up" so much.
Squatting next to the box in a hurry, Hondo Yingyou was so anxious that he was sweating profusely. No matter what method he used, he couldn't restore the lever on his hand. What's worse is that the screws connecting the lever and the box seem to have fallen, and he doesn't know where they fell.
What should I do, do I have to carry a huge suitcase out of the house? But that looks silly, especially in a suit!
No way, let's just make a call.
"What, Eiyu Hondo is back? It's pretty fast. Ji Haihong was holding his mobile phone.
Conan said, "Just now he called me and said that he was in a little trouble, don't you have a car, just go pick him up, how about it?" ”
"Since you said so, of course I can't shirk it, I'll go with David to pick him up right away, I haven't seen him for a long time, I don't know how much this guy has changed."
The chrome coupe drove out of the villa and onto the highway leading to the airport. Halfway through, David asked curiously, "Young Master, who is this Tang Yingyou?" Do you want to pick you up in person? ”
Ji Haihong said: "Hey, this guy, you haven't seen him when he was in Japan, in short, he is a very cute guy, and now he is a new member of the CIA, and he is not trained to do so." ”
"Oh," David said with a smile that the old bird had when he looked at the novice, "I know, I know." ”
Arriving at the airport, Ji Haihong didn't care about the surprised and envious eyes of passers-by on the coupe, he drove the window, looked left and right, but didn't see Hondo Yingyou.
Suddenly, a large box appeared in front of him: "Hi, hello. ”
What the heck? Box ghosts?
No, it's not a box ghost, it's someone holding a box, and the box covers his upper body.
"The parish ...... Yingyou? David was a little unsure because it didn't look like the CIA.
Hondo Yingyou seemed to see a savior, although he could only see the box now: "Yes, yes, is it Ji Haihong's car?" ”
"It's me, my cousin, get in the car."
Is it really CIA's? But how could that group of guys accept such two new Ding...... People can't look good, maybe this guy shows that he is confused, but he actually has a lot of skills?
Getting out of the car to help the CIA guest with the trunk, David looked at him a little confused. Hondo Yingyou was a little uncomfortable: "This should be Mr. David, is there something wrong?" ”
"It's okay, let's get in the car."
This kind of dizzy person gives people the feeling of being dizzy, who looks at who is pregnant...... Phew, whoever looks at it is dizzy. David's appetite for teasing Eiyu Hondo is gone.
On the way back, Ji Haihong briefly asked Hondo Yingyou about the CIA, showing a child's curiosity about the CIA. But Ji Haihong didn't ask him about the purpose of returning to Japan. Because he must have asked in vain, he must have said that he was back to play and would not reveal anything.
"I came back this time with a CIA mission, as if I was asked to investigate a person who had come to Japan and then left, and my mission was to investigate what he had done in Japan." In response to Conan's inquiry, Eiyu Hondo said.
Ji Haihong wanted to splash the hot tea in front of him on his face at that time, can there be a limit to being cute, even if he trusts Conan, can this kind of thing be said at Dr. Asasa's house! And this kind of behavior completely slapped Ji Haihong himself in the face - what kind of thing is this!
Aware of Ji Haihong's entanglement, Conan knew that he hadn't fully understood the person of Hondo Eiyu. Smiling slightly, Conan asked, "Who is that person?" ”
"We only know his passport name, we don't know his name, and we only have a vague picture." Take out a document bag from the bag, then the plastic bag from it, another box from it, and another box from it. After opening it, this mysterious photo finally appeared in front of Conan and Ji Haihong.
The photo is wrapped in a thin plastic film, which is to prevent anyone's fingerprints from sticking to the photo. Ji Haihong picked up the photo and looked at it, and then handed it to Conan.
"There is only a blurry profile on this photo, how can I find it? The name of the passport must also be fake, can you tell me the identity of this person? Since he knew that Hondo Yingyou was so easy to reveal information, Ji Haihong couldn't help but ask.
"We don't know that, we don't need to know, my task is just to find out what he did in Japan, and nothing else."
It's really the CIA's usual style. Conan asked, "When did he arrive in Japan?" ”
"It's been a long time, at least five months, according to the information on the passport."
Five months? Ji Haihong suddenly thought of something. The biggest thing that happened five months ago was the complete destruction of the Night's Watch intelligence station.
At that time, there was a squad that infiltrated Japan and carried out strikes against the Night's Watch intelligence station. However, according to the team's later confession, there was only one person who actually carried out the blow, and they only went to clean up the tail for this person.
It was precisely because of the leak of information from the Night's Watch intelligence station that his fake identity was exposed, which led to Erebos coming to the door.
Could it be that Erebos was the one who started that attack?
Ullfrik also said that the attack was most likely related to the Black Coat. If the true identity of this mysterious person can be found out, then ......
Several plans appeared in Ji Haihong's mind, these plans were just outlines, and the only thing they had in common was to attack.
It's not a counterattack, it's an offense. In Ji Haihong's opinion, there is nothing good to fight back between him and the enemy, it is completely an attack. Even if the enemy is attacking, you must attack the enemy yourself!
"Are you okay?" Conan noticeably noticed that the atmosphere had changed.
"Brother Bentang, if you need help in the future, you can say it directly."
"Well, of course." Facing Ji Haihong, who suddenly became serious, Hondo Yingyou's head was blank. He didn't notice what was happening.
made an appointment to go to dinner with Xiaolan and them in the evening, and Ji Haihong took the opportunity to let Hondo Yingyou go home to rest first. He immediately led Conan to his villa, closed the door, and began to discuss the most important matters with David.
Xiaobai stuck out his tongue and watched angrily, and now he understood that once the owner had something unsavory to say, he would carry it into the house.
"Today, let's talk about the return of Eiyu Hondo." Ji Haihong got straight to the point.
Conan knew what he was going to say, "No, are you sure the person he's looking for has something to do with you?" ”
"David knows the matter of the Night's Watch Intelligence Station best, since that person's passport is fake, it means that he secretly infiltrated Japan, and in terms of time, it is more consistent with that incident."
After staying under Ji Haihong for some time, David became a lot more mature: "Young master, do you have this person's passport information?" ”
Ji Haihong took out his mobile phone: "I took a picture of all the documents and photos he was carrying when Hondo Yingyou went to the toilet, you can take a look." ”
David only glanced at the passport information, and said with certainty: "There is no such person, and the fake passport information of those who attacked the team does not match this." ”
"But don't forget, there was only one person who actually launched the attack, and this person's passport information has not been found until now, but the CIA has found it, which means ......"
David immediately rushed to the center of the war situation, and Ji Haihong and Conan followed one after another. Sure enough, Ulfrik didn't disappoint them. As soon as they arrived at the Situation Center, they received a message that read: "According to CIA intelligence, an extremely suspicious man has been identified as the likely culprit of the attack on the Night's Watch intelligence station, along with a photograph and his fake passport information." ”
The information provided in the information is consistent with the information that Ji Haihong has now, and it seems that the intelligence department of the mercenary company also attaches great importance to this information.
"This person may be related to the black-clothed organization, now that the key clues are in front of us, what we need is to sort out, in this case, we need to find another person."
Ten minutes later, Okiya knocked on the door of the villa.
"Come in and sit."
In addition to keeping in touch with Judy-sensei and Kamal, Okiya now mainly relies on James to provide information. Ji Haihong has the information, he must have it.
"I guessed you'd be looking for me, I didn't expect you to be in such a hurry."
"This matter concerns a lot of people, and I have to be anxious." Ji Haihong said.
Conan suddenly felt that he had been inexplicably excluded from the topic. This time, Ji Haihong's intuition and sensitivity to things surprised him, whether it was from the previous intelligence integration or the current discussion with Okiya Pleiades, he seemed to be a different person.
A person who really fits this kind of thing, this kind of atmosphere.
"We have also received an order, and this time the Japanese police and the FBI in Japan will assist Eiyu Hondo in investigating this person, and once the identity of this person is confirmed, even if it is a person related to him, we will be able to have a more active advantage," Okiya said. ”
"So here's the problem, where to find out?"
"Your friend's intelligence department gave us information about the Night's Watch intelligence station, and I was surprised, they found a lot of things, even the weapons supplier, and a lot of Japanese people were involved, remember those corpses, in the warehouse."
"I know, you did it, and I treated you to a steak afterward."
"Those corpses are in the hands of the Japanese police, and they have also found a lot of things, with the intelligence supply of the FBI and the CIA, we have found a line, a line related to this mysterious person."
