Act 221: The Politician in the Gang (2)
Every once in a while, Conan would disguise himself as Shinichi Kudo's voice and call Ran. However, he was uneasy that how many girls would be very patient to fall in love with a voice? The days when I became smaller are far away, and I don't know when it will return to the way it was. I'm not sure if Xiaolan will change her mind.
And what he was worried about finally came, and on this day he hid in a phone booth on the side of the street and talked to Mao Lilan, and he seemed to be a little impatient to listen to Xiaolan's voice.
"Are you going to tell me again that you're dealing with a very difficult case?"
"I ......" Conan didn't know how long the lie would last.
"Ah, I'm sorry, Shinichi. I've got something to do, that's all! Also, the weather is getting cold, beware of colds. Xiaolan hung up the phone without saying a few words, filling Conan's heart with a sense of crisis.
What's going on, Lan. After only saying two sentences, she hung up, is she no longer interested in her voice!?
Downstairs in the office, Conan hesitated for a long time before going upstairs. Thinking in his heart, it was Xiaolan's strange behavior recently, so that when he pushed the door in, he said listlessly: "I'm back......"
"Hey, Conan, you're back." Satsuki glanced at Mori Kogoro sitting at his desk and called him so.
Mori Kogoro is now in the same state as Conan, with a slight malaise. A few sparse stubbles hung on the sides of the center and on the chin, the top of the head was like a chicken nest, and there were thick dark circles around the eyes.
Conan walked in and was startled to see him like this. I came to Gao Yue's side and asked, "Uncle, what's wrong?" ”
Gao Yue shrugged her shoulders, "Didn't my uncle go to the new hospital for a physical examination a few days ago, and today I am going to see the examination report." ”
"Huh? Is it serious? ”
"Because the new doctor said that he must be accompanied by his family. So he felt that he must be very sick. But I think he's just scaring himself, he's been drinking too much lately, and of course he's getting tired. ”
Seeing that there was no trace of Maolilan, Conan tiptoed and asked, "So, what about Xiaolan?" ”
"Oh, she's upstairs to change her clothes, and she'll be able to go out in a moment."
Conan was always thinking about Xiaolan's recent strange behavior, so when he saw Hoshino Satsuki pick up a glass of milk he had just drunk and rinse it by the pool, he quietly walked over and asked, "Hoshino, have you felt that Lan is strange in the office recently?" I've been talking on the phone lately, will it be ......?"
The sound of the flowing water washing on the cup was a little crisp, Gao Yue stared at the work in her hand, and replied lightly: "Why, you won't be afraid that Xiaolan will change her mind." ”
Conan, who was said to be thinking about the center, had a crimson face and couldn't say a word for a long time.
Gao Yue looked at him at this time. "Don't worry, Xiaolan is here to surprise you, 'Kudo Shinichi', so I'm busy doing one thing secretly."
Today is the day when Mori Kogoro goes to the new hospital to see a doctor, so it is natural to see the new Tomoaki at the new house.
Satsuki remembered that Xiaolan specially borrowed one from Shinide Chiaki in order to knit a sweater for Kudo Shinichi and used it for reference.
Conan's worries were simply unnecessary.
Gao Yue shook the water in her hands, picked up the towel hanging on the wall, wiped it, and teased: "As for what it is, I won't say anything." Otherwise, Xiaolan's thoughts will be in vain......"
Conan half-hung his eyes and tilted her: Hmph, that's stingy.
At this moment, a bell rang from Satsuki's trouser pocket. Satsuki touched it, and when she put it in the palm of her hand, she happened to see the caller ID on it - Hanazuka Sichen.
She subconsciously glanced at Conan, who was staring at him blankly, and quietly walked past him and opened the door. The bell kept ringing as she ran downstairs, and it became more and more ethereal because of the corridor.
"Hey, Hanazuka? What happened? She ran down the last step and picked it up at once.
"It's so slow......" Glen Levi complained at first, and then his voice was a little lighter, "Hoshino, have you seen the public opinion on the Internet about Senator Shigehiko Swallowing?" ”
Swallow Shigehiko!? Satsuki thought for a while, and then remembered that it was a character who appeared in the chapter "Encounter with the Dark Organization Again", and it is said that Pisk died because he hit a crystal glass lamp on the roof of the film director's memorial meeting hall with a gun, which happened to hit him.
But a small role like this has never been taken to heart by Hoshino Satsuki.
"Oh, I remember him. What's wrong with him? ”
"Yesterday I saw someone anonymously posting a news article on the Internet about the corruption and bribery of political councillor Shigehiko Toguchi, but I never knew who the anonymous person was. If the government starts a thorough investigation because of this incident, it may arrest Shigehiko Toguchi and put him in prison. ”
"Hey, that's not a good thing."
Gran Lewe's eyebrows twisted, and he pursed his lips and said, "However, the person who bribes the swallowing of Shigehiko is the organization." It is said that after the murder of police officer Tsuruta Soto, many people were dissatisfied. So the above wanted to use the identity of the Swallowing Councilor to block the mouths of the people. ”
Hearing him say this, Gao Yue's tone suddenly dropped: "You mean to say that if the evidence of swallowing and accepting bribes is conclusive, the police are likely to intervene." But this kind of bribery is different from homicide, and without conclusive evidence, the organization will settle it by some means. At that time, the organization will not fall, and it will be able to use the hands of the police to find out who the person who published the anonymous news is. ”
"That's right......" Gran Lewe's eyes darkened, and his voice was faint, "The matter of swallowing councillors is not trivial. He collects money from the organization, unless it is the highest government and private investigators, otherwise only people inside the organization can know the news. ”
"Do you suspect it's Toru Amuro?" Satsuki's face turned pale in an instant.
"Yes, Bourbon didn't know that in addition to himself, in the Japanese base in this organization, there were also me and Shui Wuren who were undercover. If a thorough investigation is organized at that time, the worst possible scenario is to uproot the ICPO and the CIA as well. At that time, not only will the police be able to infiltrate again, but the ICPO and CIA will not have a chance. ”
Oh, yes...... After Shuichi Akai's identity as an FBI agent was revealed, no FBI people infiltrated it again.
Satsuki pondered for a moment, then asked, "Then why don't you tell Amuro about your identity and the stakes of this matter?" You're also undercover, and I'm sure he won't do that. ”
In fact, if this matter is right or wrong, Bourbon is not wrong. After all, he is a public security policeman......" After a pause, Glen Lewe's face changed color, and he said viciously: "But because he is a public security policeman, I don't want to tell him my identity." Because, this is what I hate the most in my life, and I will not forgive the Japanese public security police at all! ”
