【Chapter 266】Interests
Ki Haihong's suggestion was fully endorsed by Conan and Hattori, but an alliance, especially between intelligence agencies, was not a trivial matter. And Conan doesn't know what Shuichi Akai will think about this matter, will he agree to this alliance plan?
Suddenly, Hattori receives a phone call, and the name of the caller displayed on the phone is "Big Fool". Hattori was thinking that this guy was not good at accompanying Shiliang in the hospital, so why did he call him when he was idle?
"Flat! Oh no! Oh no! ”
Hearing Kazuha's crying voice, Hattori immediately panicked: "Kazuha, what's wrong?" What's going on! ”
Ji Haihong and Conan glanced at each other, could it be that something happened to Shiliang?
"I ...... I went out to get medicine for Sera, and when I came back, she ...... It's gone, and there's just a note on her bed that says she's been kidnapped! ”
"You ...... right away Oops, you're waiting for me there, we'll be right there! ”
Upon learning that Sera had been kidnapped, Kikaihiro immediately asked David to arrange a car, while Conan called Mori Kogoro to inform him, and Hattori also called the Twilight Police Department. Now David drove them to the hospital in a coupe.
When I came to the hospital, there were several police cars parked downstairs in the ward with flashing police lights, and Officer Sato's car was also here.
Ji Haihong just glanced at the familiar car, and then walked into the building with Conan.
"Hattori-kun, you're here." Officer Takagi stepped forward to greet him.
Conan anxiously asked, "Officer Takagi, what happened?" How could Sister Shiliang be kidnapped! ”
"I also just arrived, and I heard that when Miss Toyama and Miss Sera were in the ward, a nurse walked in and asked Miss Toyama to go to the nurse's station to pick up the medicine, and in the process, Miss Sera and the nurse both disappeared, and according to our investigation, there was no such nurse in the hospital at all."
Hattori asked, "What about surveillance?" ”
"Retrieval, haven't had time to check yet."
Kogoro Mori and Toru Amuro had already arrived at the hospital. Uncle Maori, who was talking to the Twilight Police Department, covered the back of his head very trickily: "Why did you attack that tomboy, is it because she participated in the arrest operation and let the prisoner know her identity, so she took revenge?" ”
"But," said the Twilight Police Department, "why hasn't Mr. Amuro been retaliated against?" ”
"It's very simple, because my apprentice is young and strong, no one will trouble him, and that tomboy is injured and has difficulty moving, if I were a prisoner, I would definitely do the tomboy."
Everybody's nervous, everybody's worried. But Amuro's behavior was different from ordinary people, he wiped the sweat from his forehead from time to time, his breathing was unsteady, and his eyes were anxious.
None of them knew the inside story, none of them knew, but Amuro himself knew it well.
"Listen to me, does she know you?" Belmode's words echoed through Amuro's mind over and over again, like a sledgehammer, striking at his anxious mood all the time.
Retribution, yes, the prisoner is revenge, in this form of revenge against those who have harmed her husband. From another point of view, this is an alternative reminder to the police. Moreover, those who were killed died very tragically, and Amuro could feel Kanako Aono's anger at the organization and the enemy through those photos.
It can't be like this, it must not be allowed to happen to Seliang!
"How much do you know."
Amuro turned around in a hurry, his eyes meeting the eyes of Kamiki Haihong.
"What?" Sweat rolled down his cheeks and dripped down his chin.
"I ask you how much you know, this matter, we all know that the victim is related to the organization, and you, you are the person of the organization, your identity is so secret, the prisoner should not have the authority to know your identity, that is, if you have no intersection with the prisoner before, even if you drink tea face-to-face, she will not know your identity, so the question is, have you done anything that makes people hate?"
Amuro leaned feebly against the wall, slowly sliding on the cold ground. This kind of scene surprised Ji Haihong, and in his impression, Amuro Toru was not the kind of person who would be defeated by setbacks.
"I used to be a middleman, just to deal with her husband's affairs, I didn't do it myself, but I played a role in facilitating."
Ji Haihong asked, "How did the prisoner know about this?" ”
"I don't know," said Amuro, "but I want to save Miss Seliang." ”
"Then don't sit here," Conan walked over and held out his hand to Amuro, "Maybe there is a conflict between us, but our purpose is the same, and now, rescuing Sister Sera is our goal." ”
"Cut, Conan, you're really good at talking." Ji Haihong had an impatient expression, and he also extended a helping hand to Amuro.
At this time, Amuro should consider and analyze the division of interests. As a police officer, he had to do this for the sake of national security, and he often did. However, this time, in the face of Conan and Ji Haihong's assistance, he didn't think much about it, there was an inexplicable force dominating him in his heart, and his brain was hot and grabbed Conan and Ji Haihong's hands.
According to the next plot, Amuro stood up from the ground with the help of the strength of the two.
However, according to Newton's laws of mechanics, this may not happen 100% of the time.
When Amuro got up with his strength, his feet suddenly slipped, and Conan and Ji Haihong didn't have time to react, causing him to take their hands and slide between the two of them _(:3"∠)_.
……
"The clue left by the prisoner is a note, on which in addition to the words of the kidnapping of Miss Seliang, also left some symbols." The Twilight Police Department is working with other officers to parse the note left by the prisoner.
Conan squeezed in front of them and found that the slip of paper was drawn with irregular triangles and squares, etc., as well as some symbols similar to Latin.
Seeing these things, Amuro is like a mirror, and these are all a kind of code for his peers within the organization. The codes of different classes are different, and Kanako Aono's class uses this kind of code.
Now the police are investigating the identities of the families of the victims, who have begun to suspect the relationship between them. Now, Kanako Aono has reached out to Sera again, so that he himself may be in the police's sight - but thankfully, the police are now only suspecting that the prisoner is retaliating.
However, the reality is not optimistic. What if the prisoner kills Sera and leaves a message revealing his identity to the police?
Even if the police were able to intervene in the end, the trouble would be quite large, because no one knew if there were any organized spies within the police. If the news of the police blockade attracts the attention of these people, so many years of undercover operations will be in vain.
What's more, these are nothing compared to Seliang's life......
Amuro was suddenly taken aback by his own thoughts, he shouldn't have these thoughts.
"Well, can you understand the meaning of this?" Conan asked.
"I wanted to go to a construction site alone to meet her, and I had to go alone."
Ji Haihong asked: "It's not easy to call the police for this kind of thing, after all, you can't explain how you understand the code, so what are you going to do?" ”
"Regardless of him, let's go first, the other party is just a person working in a laboratory, even if he knows some intrigues, he is not as professional as me." Toru Amuro said.
Conan asked, "How can we help?" ”
Amuro didn't hesitate: "Although I would love to ask you to help me, this matter is related to Miss Seliang's safety, and I must solve it myself." ”
Conan looked at Ji Haihong, who looked at Amuro and agreed with his plan of action.
On the pretext of having a stomach upset, Amuro leaves the hospital and drives to the construction site that the prisoner is referring to.
"Why is it so simple, don't you want to help him?" Conan was puzzled.
Ji Haihong said: "I understand that he is an undercover agent and likes to work alone, but that doesn't mean that there is no one behind him. ”
……
On the way to the target location, Amuro looked at the map and found that the construction site was located next to a downtown area. Due to financial problems, the construction site is now in a state of suspension, and almost no one goes to that place except for the patrols of the security guards every night.
The site is also very tightly protected, surrounded by walls and closed gates. Unless there is a key, ordinary people can't get in if they want to.
Instead of going directly to the construction site, Amuro first observed the topography of the construction site from a nearby tall building. The building on the site was under construction, pitch black, and there was no light inside except for the daily lighting on the periphery, which was still in operation.
To enter, or not to enter? In this environment, if the other party has night vision devices and pistols, even if they are amateurs, they can pose a lot of threats to themselves.
Eventually, for the sake of Sera's safety, Toru Amuro decided to enter the construction site.
Compared with the dark construction site, the downtown area next door is brightly lit, like two worlds.
Originally, Amuro was supposed to live in a world of bright lights.
However, he chose a dark and broken world - to protect those who live in a brightly lit world.
Walking up the stairs, Amuro focused on an attack that might emerge from the darkness.
The building under construction is fifteen stories high, the elevator has not been built, and Kanako Aono has not yet appeared, if Sera is on the roof......
No, a woman in her thirties has the strength to carry a girl to the top floor?
The lights on the floor suddenly turned on, and orange lights illuminated the sixth floor. Amuro was on full alert, and six strangely dressed young men appeared around Amuro with instruments in their hands—bricks, short sticks, wooden boards, and so on.
"Who are you?" Amuro asked.
"We are members of the Matsuba Society! Boy, you can obediently leave your hands and feet today! ”
Matsuba will be the name of a yakuza and not very large. In Japan, this kind of yakuza is everywhere, and they often take on some black jobs for money.
It's really, and it's inspiring.
