Pitch Black Express Chapter 113: Aegis (12)

Fujii Kazusa shook off Uncle Maori's hand, "Let go of me, I'm different from you, I'm doing things for this country!" ”

"If you continue to think like this, don't talk about defending your home and country, and don't even think about catching Spy X lurking in the Aegis ship. Let's work together, even for the sake of the country under our feet. ”

Uncle Mori's statement convinced Mr. Sekiguchi, a member of the intelligence security team, that he decided to cooperate with his colleagues from the Metropolitan Police Department and the Coast Guard, "There was a previous incident of the leakage of Aegis data at the Maritime Self-Defense Force's Wakasa base, and Fujii Kazusa assigned me to be in charge of the investigation, and the person who deliberately allowed the data of the Aegis to leak was Captain Sasoura himself. ”

"Who did he reveal all the information about the Aegis ship?"

"It's a man named Takekawa. In Tokyo, there is a credit bureau that has ceased operation a few years ago, and the shell company has been bought by someone to carry out various espionage activities under the cover of it, which is a common trick in Japan, and that person is Takekawa. ”

"So Captain Sasaura revealed the information of the Aegis ship to this Takekawa?"

"Yes, the day after we found out about this, we immediately received news that the Coast Guard had spotted a suspicious vessel near Maizuru Bay. The Aegis ship was docked in Maizuru Bay, and the suspicious ship also appeared nearby, so it couldn't have been a coincidence. ”

The Coast Guard officer said, "We found parts made in that country on that suspicious vessel......

Fujii Kazusa continued, "Yes, after getting this news, Captain Sekiguchi and I both felt that the spy of the same nationality as Takekawa had come ashore, and that person was X. We all agreed that X would most likely sneak into the Aegis ship under the cover of Captain Sasoura to steal classified information, in which case he would have chosen to be on relatively weak guard for the sailing experience. ”

"Why can't you be open and honest with this message in the first place?"

"That's because the self-defense officer has disclosed the classified information and information of the Aegis to foreign intelligence agents, how can we talk about such a major scandal? In addition, this is also an order from the Minister of Defense, not to leak this information, not to cause huge damage to the image of the Maritime Self-Defense Force, we originally decided to rely on our own strength to let the truth out, so when I found his mobile phone on the deck, I took out the memory card and hurriedly slipped away. ”

"It turns out that you were the first person to discover the mobile phone, so sure enough, Captain Sasaura turned out to be staying on this Aegis ship......"

"Yes, then I was brutally killed by X, probably to kill my mouth." After explaining these matters, Fujii Kazusa took out his mobile phone from his pocket, "I'm sorry, please allow me to contact the Ministry of Defense, the situation here is beyond my authority." ”

"I see, you're the one who is privately communicating with the satellite on the ship." Captain Tateishi threw the pot to Kazusa Fujii for Conan.

"I'm really sorry, after that accidentally caused a commotion, I used to make satellite calls in the degaussing room to cover up the satellite signal sent by my mobile phone." After saying that, she dialed the phone number of the Ministry of Defense......

"The reliable information I just received confirmed that Takekawa had entered Kyoto City two hours ago." Kazusa Fujii relayed information he had received from the Ministry of Defense.

"Since Takekawa came to Kyoto from Tokyo on purpose, this means that he may join X on this Aegis ship." Everyone at the scene understands the priority of the matter, and at this time, the life and death of Captain Sasaura are not so important, and the top priority now is to find out that X, who has already captured Takekawa, who escaped with the classified information of the Aegis ship.

"And where is Takekawa now?"

"The intelligence team has entered Kyoto City and conducted a thorough search."

"You should have a picture of Takekawa, right?" Officer Sato suddenly thought of something, "Of course there is." ”

"Direct tracking using our police's N-system (Vehicle Monitoring System) and surveillance images at each traffic intersection!" Officer Sato said what she did.

"In that case, our Kyoto prefectural police will also fully cooperate." On behalf of the Kyoto Prefectural Police, the Ayakoji Police Department took the lead in expressing their opinions in support of the Metropolitan Police Department's approach.

"Let's let the Coast Guard do our part!"

Seeing that everyone had made a decision, Captain Standing Stone felt that they should also contribute to everyone, "Please send all the images from those monitors to the CIC of this Aegis ship, after all, this Aegis ship has the ability to analyze images instantly." ”

"Great, everybody's a perfect fit, isn't it? That's the only way to protect the land beneath our feet. ”

All the investigators went to the Aegis CIC and countless surveillance camera recordings appeared on the screen, "This is the video taken by all the surveillance cameras in the city of Kyoto from two hours ago. "The image is changing rapidly, and the central computer of CIC automatically analyzes it, recognizes the face captured by the camera and the photo of Takekawa, and finds the location of Takekawa by the similarity of the picture.

The communicator inside the CIC opened his mouth and relayed the information he had heard in the headset, "A message from the Maizuru base that they towed the shipwreck back to investigate, and found parts of that country from the hull, which are about to be displayed on the main screen. The bomb inside the shipwreck appeared on the screen, and the bomb on the suspicious ship belonged to the same production process, and it could be judged that it was the handiwork of a country, that is, the nationality of Takekawa and X.

"In this way, the appearance of the shipwreck ship around the Aegis ship before was not an accident, but a deliberate operation."

"Could it be a terrorist attack by someone else using the currents?"

"It's impossible, before setting sail this morning, the ship re-changed the original route to the left according to the direction of the ocean current and the course of the surrounding ships, and it is impossible to predict the position of the Aegis ship in advance to arrange the direction of the shipwreck."

"Who would know about the change of course?"

"Only people in the Wakasa base can possibly know."

"I see, so there's no way out of that Spy X."

Quietly eavesdropping on the investigators' conversations, Conan suddenly thought of the behavior of the Captain Sasoura, "Someone witnessed Captain Sasoura waving the Japanese flag over Maizuru Bay at half past five in the morning", could it be said? Conan turned off the bugging switch on the track, ran out of the toilet cubicle, and rushed straight in the direction of the CIC.

Just as he was about to rush in through the door, his arm was grabbed, and a huge force came, and Conan was already dragged aside, "What are you going to do?" And this body to remind them that they will be suspected......"

"I thought of a possibility, and I had to confirm the question about the change of route......"

"You mean the semaphore?" Kazama looked at Conan with a mocking face.

"You...... How do you know? ”

"Don't take everyone else for fools, detective." After saying that, Kazama took Conan's hand and quietly walked into the CIC, and the crew guarding the door did not stop the two, "It seems that he used that ninjutsu again, and this time he didn't specifically introduce it to me, it seems that this Kazama has been seen before, which one will it be?" ’

"Captain Tateishi, you said that only the people in the Wakasa base knew about the Aegis ship's course changes, right? So it's possible that Captain Sasaura also knew about this...... I was thinking that the place where he was waving in Maizuru Bay was not a Japanese flag at all, but a signal flag, and it was only because it was too dark that I was mistaken. One of the crew members stood up and spoke to the investigators.

"I see, Captain Sasaura used this signal flag to convey the news of the change of course to X."

"yes." The crew of the Maritime Self-Defense Force and the officers of the Coast Guard understood what he meant.

"What code? What happened to that flag? "A few people from the police didn't understand what kind of dumb riddle they were playing.

"Adjusting the course to port side means that this is a common flag phrase on the sea."
