[Coop - Fate Shift 1st]

[The ruddy and plump apple has long been corroded inside—the moment you see her, you already understand her identity, her deep, contradictory dark side and self.

Wearing a mask isn't about protecting your true self, but you don't know how to face the world — she's the kind of person you hate the most. Of course, you know exactly how to deal with her.

Give her hope, even if it is false, give her a haven of rest, build on the beach that is about to be swallowed up by the waves, give her short, false solace......

Lies have been woven into a web, the hunter is about to usher in the harvest, and she seems to have finally embarked on the path you have designed...... Is it?

Caged birds, not yet qualified to talk about fate. 】

Leon's voice matched the quiet moonlight, there was a light and ethereal atmosphere, and even after hearing his slightly unusual comment, Tang Ze's hand still did not waver.

Tang Ze, who was steering the wheel, stared at the road ahead without squinting.

The low beams are framed by trees and blades of grass on both sides, like a moonlit blanket spread out on the path.

Knowing that Belmode's fate is clearer and more tragic than the original, it is not possible to say that Tang Ze has not wavered in his iron heart, and his bleak background is sympathetic at all times.

But until now, Tang Ze is still very clear - Belmode is an enemy with a very different position from him.

At the end of the story, based on a certain degree of mutual identification with her, Tang Ze may not adopt such a cruel approach to the rest of the organization, but he will never let her go unpunished.

What's more, the immortality that escaped this endless pain may also be Belmode's own wish.

But......

Driving out of the woodland, Tang Ze stopped the car in the grass near the road and pressed the window.

The air, mixed with the smell of grass and earth, blows into the car with the damp and cold air that belongs to the night.

His eyes shimmered with a golden glow, and Tang Ze waved his hand and slid it across the panel in mid-air.

In the list of teammates, the long list of debuffs that fell behind Belmode's name silently moved to Tang Ze's body, and disappeared under the effect of his anomalous invalid P.

The crease tightly twisted on Belmode's eyebrows, leaning on the passenger seat, quietly faded.

However, on this night, which is a dream, it is not a big deal to let her sleep well.

————

"Neither Kumel nor Belmode are on board, and that letter is a complete diversion of the mountain."

Sitting in the car where the doctor came to pick him up, Conan held his chin and made a phone call with Hattori.

Hattori got off the boat and went to the police station, he was caught in the car by Belmode, and the distance between the two was so far that the channel intercom blessed by the doctor's black technology did not take effect, so he could only call honestly.

"Aren't we preparing for this to prevent this? However, Kumel was actually on the port side, which was an unexpected development. It only played the role of a bait that simply guided the line of sight, and Hattori Heiji sighed unwillingly.

I thought that at least one of the two of them would be on the ship, responsible for the affairs of this side of the ship, and be able to confront the members of the organization.

"We just didn't expect Belmode to design a homicide on board the ship in order to keep the line of sight." Conan sank his face, "That website, there is really a big problem. ”

In his absence, he received the confession of the prisoner remotely through Hattori's signal transmission, and heard the part about making a wish online.

Whether it's the general wish-making process on the website, or the development of detailed murder props, and even the murderer's industry background, it's all the same.

The last attempted murder case encountered in a Chinese restaurant, the murderer Isa Kaizo was a director, and the stage where today's case took place is a movie event that looks like an audition interview and a fan meeting.

To put it simply, they are all fields related to the film and television industry.

"Even if Chrissy Wynyard is really out of the picture, it is indeed reasonable for a world-renowned American movie star to have channels and influence in the Japanese entertainment industry." Thinking of the deceased who fell on the deck and could feel the arrogance and self-doing through the mouths of the staff present, Hattori Heiji couldn't help but sigh, "If the person you want to get rid of is a person in the relevant industry, you only need to find a guy who has a grudge against him, and with a simple push, you can easily hide behind the scenes." ”

"That's why a lot of people have a social identity." Conan agreed, "There are a lot of guys who are too involved with them. ”

If you think about it, that's where organizing is terrible.

A criminal syndicate that is completely out of touch with modern society and completely hidden in the dark can be just as threatening, but far less frightening than an organization like this.

Knowing the true identities of the members of the organization, it is easy to lose trust in the ordinary social order.

Who knows what kind of demons are inside every glamorous guy?

Perhaps thinking of this at the same time, the two people on both ends of the call fell silent.

Will there be other people associated with the organization around them?

————

This question, Tang Ze can answer them very firmly.

Yes, of course there is! It's all over the place!

The surroundings of Conan are like some kind of organization check-in points, and they belong to the situation where you said that Karasuma Renya is hiding in Rice Flower Town, and Tang Ze is not surprised.

Counting carefully, except for the gin that was encountered by Conan all day, Shirley automatically refreshed near his house, Belmode then killed, and then came downstairs to work as a waiter, and then came to the second-in-command Rum to deliver sushi in the rice shopping street......

Rice Flower Town is really full of talents, and it can be called the Jerusalem of the criminal world.

"You actually let Calvados shoot Miss Lan, I thought he should have been killed by you before that." Hoshikawa Teru, who drove to pick up Tang Ze and completed the shift change by the way, commented on today's confrontation.

For Tang Ze to find an excellent time to shoot and kill Calvados at a time when neither the red and black sides can blame, Hoshikawa Teru accepted it very well.

Murder, killing or damned sinners, it's really not a big problem.

Tang Ze also said before that if the organization hadn't come quickly, and Swallow Mouth Shigehiko died at the hands of Pisk, he would not hesitate to do it himself. Knowing that the organization was about to take action against Shigehiko Swallow, he was also excited and pulled himself to the scene as soon as possible to laugh at it.

It's just a small obstacle, it's nothing to a guy like Tang Ze who has a stable personality and firm beliefs, and he doesn't even have to ask a nonsense like how he feels like killing people.

Calvados not only killed Tang Ze, but also had nothing to do with the death of Tang Ze's parents.

Regarding this point, Belmode, the object of the licking, was in the game himself, and he did not consider it comprehensively enough, and Tang Ze, who synthesized information from multiple parties, was very clear.

Although it is impossible to investigate how much he contributed to this "laboratory accident", it is only to say that Calvados is by no means innocent.

How did he learn about the death of Tang Ze and his wife in the first place?

Shuichi Akai, who had not been exposed at the time, found out because of the disconnection between the Tang Ze couple, and even the well-informed Bourbon spent a while to confirm the news, if Calvados was not the actual participant, how could he seize the opportunity so quickly and volunteer to be Tang Ze's executioner?

Is there anything wrong with killing a wicked person who has killed his parents and caused a lot of suffering to himself?

Not to mention that the reason is legitimate, even if the reason is not legitimate, as long as Tang Ze feels that it is necessary, he will definitely agree.

"There will be no problem. I'm looking at it from above. Glancing at his busy list of teammates today, Tang Ze shrugged.

Without the cognitive world, Tang Ze's abilities and props cannot be applied to others, but relying on the list of teammates, it is easy to monitor the status of his own coop.

And today's port, everyone except Judy, is his coop.

Even the other side is it.

The muzzle of his gun was always firmly locked on Calvados's eyebrows, and as long as he had the slightest chance of really hurting someone, Tang Ze would shoot immediately.

It's just that, in accordance with the business ability of organizing real wine snipers, that is, if you fight a good person, you either can't hit or you can't die, Calvados lives up to the expectations of the human body stroke.

It's a pity that after Shuichi Akai's bonus, his prediction of hitting the dynamic target can be accurate.

Teru Hoshikawa nodded in understanding.

After all, in addition to the strange thief and the false code name membership, Tang Ze has a close relationship with so many undercover former undercover police officers and others, and if he shoots indiscriminately, it is likely to cause dissatisfaction and estrangement.

Tang Ze, who has always done things well, would not be so imprudent.

"So what about next, your purpose in deliberately making them wary of Akechi is to slowly expose Akechi's problems, and then make them suspect Kumail?" Hoshikawa Hui asked guessingly, and even secretly relieved in his heart.

For him, playing the role of Achigoro in front of the public is a far more difficult task than playing the role of Kumel in the organization.

Let a person who is not good at socializing and lacks normal social life play a social star, only Tang Ze can do such an imaginative thing.

If Conan and the others really become wary of Akechi Goro, completely isolate the intersection of Karasawa and Akechi Goro, and keep a distance from him, it will definitely be a good thing for Hoshikawa Teru.

Playing a role that detectives are not good at with the shrewd eyes of detectives is really a task that tests the psychological quality.

"Not really. Originally, their impression of Akechi Wulang was not very good, and at most it could make Lan a little scrupled. Tang Ze shook his head.

As for Sonoko Suzuki...... Just look at the face of Hoshikawa Hui, stay away? Impossible.

"I mainly hope that Belmode can find out the strangeness of 'Tang Zezhao's death' through this question." Tang Ze narrowed his eyes, "Her connection to the core secrets of the organization is deeper than I imagined. We have to move forward. ”

As long as you gain her trust, as long as you give Tang Ze an entry point and opportunity......

He must be able to pry the entire organization and uproot all the darkness.

It just so happened that Belmode was about to leave Japan for a while, and it was time to get ready.

————

"You met Shuichi Akai? In that port? ”

"Yes, it's definitely him, I won't admit it." Leaning against the glass of the phone booth, Belmode looked out at the silent and deserted highway outside.

By the time she reopened her eyes from the pain in her chest, she was still sitting in the passenger seat, but the driver's seat was empty.

It seems that this guy Kumel used some means to casually grab a car to pick her up, sent it to the place, and directly threw her on the side of the road with the car, making it clear that she would let her figure out her own way.

I was surprised to find that I had slept dreamless for two or three hours, and even now, Belmode still felt incredible.

Is this to blame for fatigue and pain? Or is it magical, like all the unexpected turns that happened on the day of this full moon.

But in short, although she was injured and sat alone in a telephone booth in the wilderness, with the dim light above her head, she felt a different kind of comfort.

What a peculiar night.

"That guy actually dared to go back to Japan." Gin's voice cooled down.

"The woman who was tracking me down was also the FBI, and I should have guessed when I found out." Belmode gasped, "Didn't the boss say that that person would be a real silver bullet......"

"The silver bullet that wiped us out with one blow? There is no such thing," Gin replied calmly and categorically, "what about Calvados?" ”

It is not difficult to find out the whereabouts of the code members in the organization, as long as the permissions are sufficient.

Calvados was not warned not to help Belmode, because it was useless.

It was only a matter of time before the prey attracted by the showiness of the man-eating flower melted into the digestive juices, and he had no interest in paying attention to this kind of fool who supplied blood and did not supply his upper body.

And now, since Belmode is only back alone, there is a high probability that Calvados has a problem.

“…… Killed by Shuichi Akai. Closing his eyes, Belmode took out the words he had already thought of.

Any sniper, as elite as Kumel, would also shy away from knowing Shuichi Akai's true abilities, and it only makes sense that Calvados would die at the hands of Akai Shui.

Covering his chest, which was experiencing a piercing pain as he moved, Belmode tugged at the corners of his mouth.

She herself was injured like this, and Calvados folded there in order to protect her, which was simply reasonable excess.

"On the premise that your identity is exposed, your plan to come to Japan and get involved in Shirley's affair is simply ridiculous." Gin scoffed, not commenting too much on Calvados' worthless tragic death.

What's there to comment on, the stupid little bug got into the pitcher plant he wanted to sleep in as he wished, and he still had to pick it out?

If the waste dies in the trash can, it should be regarded as environmental protection.

"Say whatever you want. Anyway, I'm in a phone booth along Route 22, can you please pick me up? This is the limit, and I can't move for the time being. Belmode laughed silently, not continuing to say goodbye to Gin, but only stating his request.

"Before that, there's something to ask." Gin glanced at the vodka screen, "Do you know a little imp named Shinichi Kudo?" ”

Vodka's open laptop is showing a part of a newspaper at the moment, and in the photo next to the text, a black-haired young man with bangs is warped, wearing a school uniform, smiling confidently in the light of the spotlight.

The black and white newspaper makes this high-spirited scene look like some kind of posthumous photo.

It's good, if this guy really stays in the posthumous photo honestly, the problem will be solved.

Until then, he needs to confirm Belmode's role in the matter.

"Oh, I don't know. I guess he's a detective. Belmode closed his eyes slightly, "I asked my target to hire a few detectives in my name to direct the police's attention...... Why, was he invited too? ”

"That's it." Retracting his gaze, Gin was not interested, "Stay there and wait." ”

That being the case, there is an explanation for Hattori's appearance and playing Shinichi Kudo.

Listening to the relentless disconnection on the other side of the call, Belmode didn't bother to hang the payphone's receiver back on, allowing the beeping receiver to fall to the ground.

Relaxing her limbs, she leaned into a small area of the phone booth and gently closed her eyes.

The headphones in her ears were still coming from a faint sound intermittently.

The noise floor caused by the siren has disappeared, and it appears that the initial questioning is over.

Two soft female voices entered the range of monitoring.

The first thing that came out was the voice of Maolilan, which was easy to distinguish.

“…… So, is it really Stockholm or something? Similar...... Hostages who sympathize with the kidnappers? ”

“…… Still investigating......"

"But that picture ......"

“…… What about asking me? He must ......"

"I'm afraid if I do this, in case I ......"

As the voices grew farther and farther away, Angel and Judy, who was being questioned by the police with her, seemed to be moving away from where Belmode had casually dropped the bugging, and the chaotic noise and the sound of earpiece disconnection rolling on the ground echoed in the small space.

Belmode looked at the cramped phone booth and closed his eyes again in weariness.

Angel seems to have become suspicious of Akechi Goro. Why? What did the FBI investigate?

The false identity of Akechi Goro was created by the head of the organization's U.S. section, and in order to make the identity as credible as possible, it even used a little bit of resources in the police and political circles, which should not be seen by the FBI.

She didn't need to remind Kumail...... Maybe not, with Kumail's ability, he can definitely easily cover up the small problem of identity.

When Gin had his hands freed, the FBI would soon have to leave the country, and I think Kummel would be able to solve this question.

Give her some time to deal with that person's rebuke and punishment, and of course, she will ......

Consciousness blurred in pain and fatigue, Belmode curled up in a phone booth.

The sides of the imitation British-style telephone booth were divided into nine equal parts, and the wooden glass frame like a railing evenly divided her slightly trembling body.

Belmode is like a bird in a cage, hanging its head.
