Chapter 117: The Other Shoe Finally Lands

The girl in front of her nervously stroked her braids, watching Mori Kogoro pick up the photo on the table and hang her head.

"This is my dad, Kenzo Hirota......"

"Well......" Maori Kogoro touched his chin and groaned, the middle-aged man in the photo stood by the taxi with a smile, he looked at the photo, and then looked carefully at the girl's delicate and plain face, and he couldn't make a difference, so he could only continue to ask, "He was a taxi driver before?" ”

"Yes." The girl bit her lip, "He came to Tokyo to look for a job, but there has been no news for many days, and the taxi company has quit his job......"

Watching Maori Lan busily go back and forth to the kitchen to prepare tea for them, Conan yawned and listened to the conversation on Maori Kogoro's side, and slowly took out his mobile phone.

Although finding relatives sounds like an ordinary small task, think about the final outcome of the first few "small tasks......

Somewhat weak-hearted, Conan still dug up Joker's email address.

[Uncle Maori has received a new commission, a girl named Masami Hirota, who is asking him to help find her father. There's nothing special about it at the moment, but since I've promised to tell you, I'll report back as promised. 】

Men with suitcases run across the docks full of containers.

From time to time, he looked behind him in panic, and it was clear that there was no one behind him, as if he was being chased by something deadly.

The strenuous exercise made him gasp for breath, but what soaked his clothes behind him was not the heat caused by exercise, but the biting cold and fear.

The thin gray clouds in the sky diluted the warm sunlight, and when it fell on the man, there was only a meager warmth, which could not dispel the chill behind him in the slightest.

The gray-blue coastline appeared in the cracks of the containers, and the man gritted his teeth, no longer looking behind him, and rushed forward with his stuffy head.

Run, just take this thing with you, and run to the place where you pick it up—

"What are you looking for, sir?" A figure spun out from behind the container in front of him and stopped the man's way.

“!” The man in the frenzy suddenly stopped, wiped the sweat from his eyes, and saw the person standing in front of him.

It was a slender young man, with wheat-colored skin and short blond hair, and a hearty smile, as if he were greeting customers who walked into the shop.

"Get out of here!" The tall and sturdy man gritted his teeth and danced the suitcase in his hand, and before he could swing it out, he saw the blonde man raise his hand slowly, and the glittering metallic pistol was revealed.

"Sorry, it's not going to work." The blonde man put away his smile and tapped the case he was clutching with the muzzle of his gun, "Put your things down." ”

Right! And this thing, this thing is very important to them!

Thinking of this, the man hugged the suitcase more tightly, protected it in front of his vital parts, and roared fiercely: "Get out of the way, this thing is very fragile, as long as I exert one-"

"Bang-bang-"

Two quick cracking sounds.

The words were blocked in his throat, and the man's hand holding the suitcase loosened, and the severe pain made his mind blank, and he could no longer care about the life-threatening box, and rolled on the ground with his blood-spattered knees, letting out a terrible howl.

"You're too slow, Bourbon-senpai."

Akechi Goro poked his head out of the container behind the man, jumped on his knees, jumped from the top of the box more than two meters high, and landed lightly on the ground.

"Tsk...... How to hit the knee again. Amuro snorted in displeasure, stepped forward and pulled the black box out of the man's hand, "Kumail, can you shoot it directly next time, blood is everywhere, it's very troublesome." ”

"I'm going to keep my mouth alive this time," Akechi Goro tapped the headphone in his right ear, "yes, Gin-senpai?" ”

As he spoke, he removed the hot silencer from the muzzle of the gun, shook it casually, briefly checked the gun parts, and walked over to Toru Amuro.

"Stay there and don't move, come and pick it up right away." The sound of gin came from the earphones, "Don't open the box without permission." ”

"What's there to open in this box," Akechi Wurou sighed heavily, his tone sounding uninterested, "Isn't this the memory card I picked off from Tang Zezhao...... It's been so many days, and it hasn't been transferred yet, and someone can still steal it out by taking advantage of the loopholes, is it really okay for the members here in Tokyo? Tell me where are the couplers, and I'll ask for you, shall I? ”

"Those people are waste, but they can't be killed if you want to." After warning Akechi Goro, a clear brake sound came from Gin's side, "Wait where you are." Do not open the box. ”

The communication hangs up here.

Tang Ze "fed" twice, and made sure that Gin was offline, so he took off his headphones and looked at Toru Amuro in front of him.

Both men raised their eyebrows and exchanged a tacit look.

When Gin got to where the two of them were, he saw Bourbon and Kumel alone dragging a corner of the box, refusing to give in to each other, each with a mild, friendly smile on their faces, and the atmosphere was tense.

The unlucky man with the bullet in his knee had passed out completely, his body was coated in mud mixed with blood, and there were two large footprints on his face, and he looked very uneasy, and he didn't know who kicked it.

"Let go." Gin grabbed the handle of the suitcase and glanced left and right.

The two of them, who had apparently stared at each other for a while, opened the box at the same time.

After looking down to make sure that there was no problem with the packaging of the box, Gin looked up at the two colleagues.

Obviously, in the minute or two after hanging up the communication, the two of them were afraid that they had already made a few moves, and the suits on their bodies were stained with a little dust.

Confirming that he was not killed or maimed, the scene could be controlled for the time being, Gin was too lazy to talk to the pair of big and small yin and yang monsters, and briefly explained a few words of the task, Vodka picked up the man who fell to the ground and shook the ashes, and the two turned their heads and left.

Tang Ze quickly swept around with his "third eye" and made an OK gesture towards Amuro.

In the next second, the two of them invariably put away their respective winery statuses.

"Finished with a change?" Amuro clicked on Karasawa's suitcase.

"It's done." Tang Ze lifted the silver suitcase with the word A printed on it, "I'm sure no one else has seen it, they won't find it." ”

"Why did the organization suddenly call up Teru Hoshikawa's test data?" Taking out a reagent spraying can and spraying it on the ground covered with the marks of the fight, Amuro asked his doubts.

Tang Ze took out the spray paint, shook it, sprayed it on the blood stains on the container, and sighed: "It's my problem." Teru Hoshikawa's previous training performance was very different from mine, and I used my parents' experiments to prevaricate, and it seems that they are still a little skeptical about this issue. ”

"Can you hide your falsified data from them?" Amuro asked, not quite convinced.

Tang Ze nodded firmly: "Sure, this data is made with the recording tool developed by my parents themselves, and it is the real data derived from the repeated experiment process overnight last night...... They couldn't see it except my parents themselves. ”

"It's a nuisance." Amuro shook his head.

"There shouldn't be a next time." Tang Ze shrugged lightly.

After all, the current Hoshikawa Hui, the data is really close to the personality mask, and the output data is very capable of bluffing, according to the test standards of his parents, he definitely has special abilities.

Two days ago, Tang Ze's experiment in the hall had a successful result, and there was a little surprise, that is, Hoshikawa Hui can really awaken the mask, but there is still a lack of suitable scenes and opportunities.

He was sure that the dying Hoshikawa Teru opened a pair of pure golden eyes, and at that time Tang Ze thought that he would get up and tear off a mask on the spot to show himself......

Unfortunately, it didn't.

How good should this be if P3's worldview should be, Tang Ze stuffed a gun into his hand and let him shoot himself, with his ruthlessness that he didn't want to live, now Tang Ze may have teammates who can fight the shadows together.

sighed, Tang Ze didn't have too much regret.

Maybe this is like P5's Haruru Okumura, there has to be a moment enough for him to explode his will before he can really tear off the mask on his face and reveal his true self.

The only change is probably that Tang Ze no longer only lets Hoshikawa Hui follow him to deliver the water.

If he doesn't let him try it on his own, even if he has the opportunity to awaken, he will be missed, anyway, no matter what kind of dog he is beaten into, Tang Ze can pull him back, and if he is beaten, he will be beaten, which is also a kind of exercise.

After thinking irresponsibly for a while, the two finished cleaning up the messy scene.

There was a "jingling" sound of an email on his mobile phone, and Tang Ze took it out and looked at it, turning to the message sent by Conan.

"Hu ......" wiped the sweat from his forehead, and Tang Ze sat on the ground regardless of his image.

"Huh?" Amuro looked at him strangely, "Tired?" I didn't go far today. ”

"No," crossed his legs, patting the dust on his gloves and clothes, Tang Ze breathed a sigh of relief, "It's just a feeling of solidity that the other shoe has finally landed......"

There is also a plus, in writing
