238 The discovery of Belmode
"Then let's go to the twin towers of the city of Seishitama now......"
In this way, seeing the familiar killing intent in Gin's eyes, Vodka couldn't help but say.
But before he could finish speaking, Gin interrupted:
"No, not yet, we'll have to go somewhere else......"
"Huh?"
Unexpectedly, seeing that Gin responded like this, Vodka was a little puzzled-
What is so important that even the investigation of the rats within the organization can be put on hold......
"This is the ...... that Belmode only found out"
Sneering, Gin said:
"About Shirley's dead sister, before she died, she actually rented an apartment without telling the organization. Belmode doesn't think it's normal, so we're going there now......"
As he spoke, Gin couldn't help but snort coldly, and then said:
"Heh, I almost forgot not to mention it, that guy from Shirley still has a sister......"
"Huh?"
In this regard, Vodka was a little surprised to hear Gin say this, and then recalled it, and couldn't help but say:
"It's the ...... A member of an organization called Akemi Miyano? But although she was also adopted by the organization since she was a child, she was at best an ordinary person who was a peripheral member, so how could Belmode think of investigating her? Didn't she be killed by you a long time ago, big brother? What else is there to investigate. β
I was very puzzled that Belmode, a member of the organization who had just returned from the United States, would have nothing to do to investigate the matter of Akemi Miyano.
Hearing this, Gin said:
"That guy has recently started investigating Shirley's whereabouts...... It's just that she didn't expect her to start with the woman Akemi Miyano. Although Shirley's betrayal does have something to do with this woman's death, ......"
Speaking of this, Gin's expression became solemn-
"I didn't expect that Belmode really found out something."
In this way, Gin's tone was slightly displeased, as if he was a little jealous of Belmode's findingsβ
This woman ......
"But isn't it just that she rented an apartment? People have been dead for so long, what's the point of going over and investigating? β
Looking at Gin's solemn expression, Vodka looked even more puzzled and couldn't help asking.
"Don't you think it's strange that Belmode investigated when she rented that apartment, and she was already under the surveillance of our people at the time, but she still rented that apartment without knowing it?"
It's just simple, Gin points this out first.
Vodka didn't understand this, but just nodded, and then the car was driven by Gin, heading towards a place in Tokyo.
Finally, in the night, the black Porsche 356A stopped in front of an apartment building called "Skylark", and then the two people who parked the car walked towards the apartment-
Then, led by Gin, the two came to the door of an apartment on the upper floor.
In this regard, after realizing that this is the target room, Vodka habitually pulls out his gun and prepares to break the door, but is stopped by Gin.
I saw that Gin knocked on this door, and the door was opened from the inside.
And suddenly, seeing the person who came to open the door, Vodka's expression was suddenly startled-
Because, he saw it, the person who came to open the door, that face, it was Akemi Miyano who should have been killed!
In this regard, I noticed that the vodka who was a little speechless and didn't know what to do with the surprise showed a hint of a smile on the corner of his mouth, and then explained:
"It's me."
In this way, Belmode's voice came out from the mouth of the "Akemi Miyano" in front of him.
At this time, Vodka finally realized what was going on, and at the same time recalled Belmode's nickname of "The Witch with a Thousand Faces" -
It's just that this time, it's the first time I've seen it with my own eyes......
"Belmode."
Simple, Gin greeted Belmode, who had the face of "Akemi Miyano", expressionlessly, and then walked into the house, and naturally followed the vodka with him-
"Is this the room? What to find. β
Cold, as if asking a subordinate, Gin asked Belmode.
"Of course."
Slightly meaningful, Belmode, who still had a "Akemi Miyano" face, said:
"I deliberately used this face to ask the administrator of the apartment, and there will be no mistake. The rent had been prepaid for a year, and the apartment manager said that 'I' hadn't been back for a long time. β
"Hmph-"
So, hearing Belmode say this, Gin snorted coldly and said:
"A dead person, how can she come back...... Even if there were, it could only be ......"
Speaking of which, Gin thought of the purpose of Akemi Miyano renting this apartment from the organization, probably to facilitate her to leave with Shirley-
After all, when Akemi Miyano took over the task of "One Billion Yen Bank Robbery", her purpose was to hope that after completing the task, she would be able to leave with Shirley.
And now it seems that Akemi Miyano has made a lot of preparations for this.
In particular, I noticed that in the study room of this apartment, there were piles of books, all of which were professional books on medicine, physiology, biology, etc., no matter how you thought about it, this could not be read by ordinary people like Akemi Miyano, but it should be that Akemi Miyano thought that after taking Shirley out of the organization, she could live here with Shirley, so she prepared these things in advance.
"I thought so at first......"
And just as Gin was thinking about it at this moment, Belmode seemed to have the same idea as Gin, and continued to speak:
"But the apartment manager hasn't seen anyone else who came to the apartment during the time I've been missing. And, what is more concerning is -
"I couldn't find the slightest fingerprint or trace of life in this apartment...... If it weren't for the testimony of the caretaker to prove that Akemi Miyano did live here for a while, I would have thought I was in the wrong place......"
"Huh, what's so strange about that?"
In this regard, Gin was unimpressed, explaining:
"It's easy to understand, it was the woman Shirley who came secretly, hid it from the apartment administrator, and cleared the traces of her sister's life here."
"But what's the point?"
In this way, Belmode asks rhetorically:
"We've now found out that Akemi Miyano has rented an apartment here for a year without permission, and even if we get rid of the traces, we can still confirm that Akemi Miyano has lived here, so why is Shirley, who has been tracked down by us, wasting time here?"
"That'...... It's to get rid of the ...... where Shirley herself has lived."
At first, it was a little casual, and Gin was about to answer, but halfway through speaking, he seemed to realize the same logic-
Has Shirley lived here? Erase the traces of her stay here? What is the significance?
If we have to say it, if we want to prevent us from finding this, we should not clear the traces in the room, but clear the record of Akemi Miyano's rent, otherwise as long as we know that this place is rented by Akemi Miyano, then Shirley will hide here for a while, and it is not something that cannot be understood......
But now......
"How, realized? Since I was able to find this place, the visible traces were not cleaned at all, so from the standpoint of the two sisters, it was a thankless task to clear the traces here...... So, there is another reason behind this! β
With the face of "Akemi Miyano", Belmode showed a grim smile......
