"Bang."

A curtain of sparks danced in the darkness, and the warm orange firelight illuminated the black Opal earrings on the earlobes, and the fine shiny surface reflected the brilliant light.

It was very windy by the sea.

The howling wind stirred the iron frame, the metals collided with each other, and the echoes of heaven and earth creaked.

The tower is leeward, and even then, there is an impervious flow of air coming in from the window. The flames of the windproof lighter were blown up and down, and the flickering light illuminated Karazawa's pitch-black pupils.

He looked a little tired.

When the gentle curvature that had been hanging on the corners of his mouth for many years quietly faded, his expression was almost a little gloomy. The eyelids drooped, the crow-like eyelashes blocked the look in the pupils, and the side face was pale and indifferent, still under the warm light.

There was another click, and the flame of the lighter went out.

There was an empty piece between his index and middle fingers, and it was a gesture of holding a cigarette. For some reason, while standing on the tower, he suddenly wanted to smoke.

"I didn't bring it." Gin said.

Mr. Karasawa turned his head to look at him, and after a while, he glanced down at the bustling city of Tokyo Bay Cape, a 24-hour convenience store with a green sign.

In fact, there are many ways to dissuade gin, such as you are not suitable, such as harmful to health...... But he didn't say it, and Tang Zeyu was also clear about this matter, and he didn't need to remind him of it. The silence lasted for a moment, and Gin compromised, "Wait here." ”

Therefore, now there is only Tang Zeyu left by the window.

This tower is located on the coast of Tokyo Bay, with a distant view of the islands on the other side. The whole building is a brick and stone structure, with a good view from the window, the sea and sky are vast, and the deep black water spreads out endlessly, until it meets the dim sky.

Closer to the shoreline, a patrol boat had just set sail, and a silver wave broke through the sea.

Tang Zeyu seemed to be looking at the patrol boat, or just unconsciously. When the fire was extinguished, the look in his eyes was obscure, only the right hand holding the lighter, and the fingertips unconsciously moved according to a certain law.

Click, click, click.

The flame rises and goes out, and the crisp sound of the switch is constantly heard when the switch is opened and closed.

The lighter was taken from the black coat pocket of Gin, and after the firelight disappeared, another cold light source lit up, which was Tang Zeyu's mobile phone on the windowsill.

The bright screen showed that it was an edited text message, and the recipient had filled in the mailbox, but for some reason, Tang Zeyu did not choose to send it for a long time.

When the thirtieth sound of the lid closing, a low step ascended.

Gin returns from the convenience store, and a structured figure appears at the top of the stairs. He threw it with one hand, and Tang Zeyu took it in the air, and it was a pack of mint cigarettes.

"......," Tang Zeyu glanced at him condemningly.

Gin raised his eyebrows impartially and looked back, and for a moment, Tang Zeyu turned his head and gave up protesting. He knocked one out of his cigarette case, hung his head, and held the flame with one hand.

The warm orange light gathers in the small space of the palm, and the skillful movements almost have a certain sense of rhythm.

Gray smoke curled up.

The slender lady's cigarette doesn't contain much tobacco, and the pungency of mint fills the mouth. When Tang Zeyu lit a cigarette, Gin turned out the window: "Don't you send it?" ”

In the time of going back and forth, the patrol boats at sea have shrunk into a small dot. Slender ripples adorn the tail end, like a pale white wound on the surface of the water.

"Yes." Tang Zeyu paused, "It's just ......"

It's just that, he can't tell.

There seems to be a long rope at both ends of his heart to fight, and his views are one and the other, but he can't express it in words.

Suddenly, the cigarette in his mouth was removed with one hand, and Gin extinguished it on the windowsill and replaced it with a kiss.

The spicy aroma spreads between the mouths.

The time was long and long, and when the fastened jaw was released, Tang Zeyu couldn't help but turn his head and cough twice.

Gin didn't let go, patiently waiting until his breathing calmed down before saying, "Do what needs to be done." ”

See his pupil seol

The wine knew it was hesitating something. Karasawa is a soft-hearted man, with a cold and compassionate character that makes him often in a complex state of contradiction, clean and neat when he raises and falls, but hesitates before making a decision.

Gin has no right to blame for this, and in essence he is also a direct beneficiary of this soft-heartedness, but he can give a little push before deciding.

Just like it is now.

The screen of the mobile phone was lit up, and Tang Zeyu lazily raised his eyes and swept it. After a moment, he finally sighed in compromise: "I know. ”

It all started a long time ago. The wood is already in the boat, and any further delay will not change anything.

The sending of a newsletter is only a matter of moments.

The success prompt sounds, and the phone automatically falls back to the editing page, which is blank again.

At the same time, Amuro received a text message.

*

Amuro was on the deck of the patrol boat when he received the text message, and the sea breeze carried the abundant moisture of the humid water, and his blonde hair was overwhelmingly raised.

To prevent loss of contact, please remember the alternate domain name of this site:

Not far away, the outline of the island emerges.

The dim light of the sky obliterates the details, everything in the field of vision fades into silhouettes, and on the side of the undulating island, a regular trapezoidal silhouette rests silently.

After nearly half a month of overnight stays, the elusive freighter is finally close at hand.

Amuro's hand tightening against the guardrail.

——In the morning at the Kabedo Central Hospital, when I watched Kiel's back leave, a call from my boss came unexpectedly.

"There is a clue to the matter of Tokyo Bay."

"The coast guard's surveillance radar found an unidentified obstacle about 12 nautical miles offshore. The algorithm analysis may be a ship, but it is close to the limit detection distance of the X-band, and the coast guard cannot be sure. ”

The systematic positioning of ships at sea is divided into two types: shore-based and satellite-based, and the latter is satellite positioning through GPS signals. In recent years, due to the gradual popularization of satellite navigation, shore-based navigation based on large-scale signal stations on land has been gradually abandoned.

But this also leads to a problem, once the ship goes to sea to unplug the AIS system, it is equivalent to being invisible under the monitoring of the maritime department.

“…… They were cautious, and based on the only radar signals, they estimated that the ship would not call at the port. There is an island and reef about 10 nautical miles offshore, and it is initially estimated that this will be the place where it will carry the daily necessities of its crew. The freighter will arrive late tonight and return to the open sea. ”

The crew of an ocean-going freighter is generally 19-24 people, and it only takes two hours to dock to replenish food and fresh water, which will be the only opportunity to investigate.

"I see." Amuro slowly clenched his phone, "I'll go to sea tonight." ”

The boss is only responsible for conveying information, and when it comes to decision-making, the tone is a bit harsh.

"Bourbon. You know, it's not part of your job. Arresting corrupt officials and investigating undercover agents, I support all of your actions, but I also hope that you will not forget your duty. ”

Because the coast guard's radar detection was different and confirmed Amuro's statement, the boss would call to inform him of the incident. Even so, his tone was serious, and his tone was almost like a beating.

Because in the eyes of his boss, Toru Amuro's actions, whether it is investigating the Metropolitan Police Department's undercover agent who doesn't know if it exists, or tracking down an ethereal freighter, have nothing to do with his undercover mission.

To put it more seriously, he could almost be called dereliction of duty.

"......" Amuro was silent for a moment.

But he knows that the two are not incompatible.

The boss didn't know all the details, and Amuro's report selectively concealed the existence of Masaki Shibuyani. In fact, these are all evidence that he is gathering against Shoaki Shotani.

Amuro did not explain.

Outside the phone, the muscles in his jaw clenched tightly, and he said word by word: "I will." ”

"After getting the evidence, I will return to the ship immediately, and I will not interfere with the mission, please rest assured."

- Kazami Yuya's suspension has not yet been revoked, and this time he went to sea, Amuro borrowed the authority of his boss. The sea rises in the distance

The vast fog rises, the island is close at hand, the dark shadows of the trees lurk at the end of the field of vision, and the undulating veins are like beasts ready to attack.

Amuro lowered his voice and ordered the intercom: "Personnel of each unit are ready. ”

Compared to the huge freighters in the dark, the patrol boats were insignificant. The deck was more than a dozen meters above sea level, and they used the strategy of pirate robbery, throwing a hook to land the striker, and then lowering the gangway.

The patrol boat's engines have been turned off to prevent the noise from attracting the attention of the people on board. Inertia allowed the ship to break through the waves with ease, and the towering stern of the ship was like a steel wall, gradually approaching them.

Toru Amuro put down the walkie-talkie, and when he was about to leave, the vest on his chest suddenly shook.

Who will contact him at this time?

Amuro was suspicious. He made a pause gesture, lowered his head and pressed the screen on, and the moment he saw the content, his gray-blue pupils suddenly shrank.

The pervasive chill spread along the moisture, and there were only two simple words on the text message, "Don't go. 】

The suffix at the end is pulque.

*

The plot of the manga stops at the Kabido Central Hospital. After informing Shuichi Akai of his identity, Kiel lowered the brim of his hat and left, and the closing scene stopped in Amuro's transparent gray-blue pupils.

[I'm so looking forward to the meeting of the two undercover agents...... I thought there would be some famous scene, but it turned out to be a mutual temptation of the red side, disappointed]

[Imaginary: Tho, are you undercover? Kiel, you're also undercover?

In fact: war of words, guard against each other]

[So why don't you just say it directly, saying that you are an undercover agent!] I really want to see you two look at each other, alas! 】

[It's pretty much the same now, anyway, she was also agreed by Akay to pass on information on the grounds of family affection]

[I guess it's possible that Akay didn't tell Kiel Toruko his true identity either?] In her eyes, Touko is not just an ordinary member of the organization, Bourbon, of course, if she can hide it, she will hide it]

【…… It is worthy of the red side hahahaha, which continues the fine tradition of killing each other, and it is worth ...... No, I can't make it up (oxygen)]

[qaq, so you all understand? Is there a kind person who can beg for popular science?,What happened to the comics?,I don't understand it at all! 】

[Quietly patting ls, you are not the only one who feels the same way, I am also a little confused by this development......]

[How to say it, it just feels like the old thief cut the main line to pieces, and inserted a little bit of this and that in daily life. As a result, everyone has become accustomed to the speed of your old man walking a bicycle, and suddenly one day you told me that this bicycle is actually a roller coaster! …… ←That's how I feel when I see this]

[The old thief is on a one-month hiatus, and the progress of coming back is like a rocket, and if it goes on like this, I suspect that he will be able to finish it next month (smoke)]

To prevent loss of contact, please remember the alternate domain name of this site:

[This is not too difficult to understand, is it, but the density of the main line is relatively high? ] Isn't it just that Gray Plains is being targeted by Pisco......]

[And Akay broke his suspicions about Yu Karasawa in person (quietly)]

>

[And Toko learns the true identity of Okiya Pleiades......]

[Gan, it's really a lot to sort out like this, old thief, didn't you really take laxatives behind our backs? I'm really a little uncomfortable with the main line of channeling updates......]

[I seriously suspect that these people have finished a theatrical version behind our backs (subway old man's mobile phone .jpg)]

[What kind of gossip, the theatrical version is indeed already in production]

【？！ What, really fake]

[It's just a rumor, don't forget that Magic Kaito hasn't been released yet, everyone looks forward to it.] Going back to the topic just now, I think of Harrow Amuro again, so how the hell did you know this dog, do you know that this will really make the CP party collapse! 】

[and the tacit understanding of Toko......]

[I really don't want to knock cp, but this is completely an official head, if you don't knock, you can't do it, the cat is crying]

[Obviously reading comics, who suddenly stuffed me with a mouthful of dog food? ] Oh, so that's it

I hate dog men, boys]

[The current situation is that the stock limit is through, and the red stock is ...... The red stock is barely closed to a fall limit. It seems that the boyfriend Jun has seen who he is, and the case has been solved! Is this why the old thief is speeding up the progress of the main story! 】

[(Excited) I know the yyds of the thoroughness! You can always believe in the old thief's childhood sweetheart and the same period of love, and you don't lose money when you buy shares——]

[No, Akai is a thief, even if it is suspicious of each other...... Isn't it fragrant to love and kill him? Think about it, I want to kill you, but I love you hopelessly, I can only shoot roses from the muzzle, how good it is! 】

【？ This is obviously my gin stock line, okay, when was it taken by you Akayi??? 】

[What, it turns out that there are really people who really knock the top killer of the organization, I always thought that he was pulled by you to choose one of the three (music)]

[Surprised +1, the village network only knew that the gin stock was open, and the front row sold melons]

[Shaking and cold, when can we stand up in the cold circle!] Old thief, you should have some more food, damn it!! 】

[If it's not impossible to knock down hard, you see, there was an organized killer sweeping the Tokyo Tower in the front, and Tang Zeyu retreated, and then Akai Shuichi openly rejected suspicions, and waited for the red party to be the leader, in case Akay's guess came true, wouldn't it be equivalent to the old thief hammering Tang Zeyu to turn black? 】

[No problem, gin another point (flop)]

[What the hell are these speculations!] Don't!! Tangtang is obviously a red-sided policeman, and you are still pushing him to black, and this blood sugar is also knocking down?? 】

[Ahem, what, in fact, the double black is also very fragrant, can this be said......]

[The painting style of your cold circle is really psychedelic, one will be the for tat of the red and black rivals, and the other will be the dark Chen Cang of the double black cooperation, let's say, there are any surprises in the gin stock that I don't know, I consider whether to add some positions (eat melons) as appropriate]

[Amway doesn't, analysis does, to tell the truth, I think the possibility of double black is still quite big......]

【？？？ 】

[(plopping and hugging his thighs) ls, don't go! ] Don't throw a bomb to whet our appetite, what does it mean to win big with double black? Come out of the process first and then give the conclusion, do you have some arguments? 】

[No, the crux of the main question is, what is there to doubt about Tang Zeyu? 】

[That's what I want to ask!] Conan's words made me confused. Shuichi Akai is suspicious, but what is he suspicious? This development is a bit too nonsensical.]

[Shuichi Akai? Personally, I think the old thief has shown that the first meeting between him and Tang Zeyu in the cup to the park, didn't he say that the two of them had met before? I suspect that this is his judgment based on previous clues, and the reason why we find it confusing is because this information is known to Shuichi Akai, but the old thief has not yet given it in the manga. So don't be impatient, and the next thing is likely to be revealed. 】

【…… In this way, isn't there another sentence after Akay's famous line, "He took me in for two nights." This sentence has been ignored! Later, Conan wanted to ask, and the two of them were still secretive, good guys, just bullying children here]

[Memory awakening + pupil earthquake, I remember, this is my original intention to invest in Akai...... At that time, I was directly kicked to death in the pit by this line, and at that time, the stock was not yet listed! 】

[That's right, alas, the beginning of love has not yet been drawn, and it makes no sense for Akai stocks to fall and stop...... So can I dream of a bottoming out? 】

[This is a Jedi counterattack sisters, Akai shares are not lost! ] 】

[Wait, we're not talking about the double-black knock method of gin stocks...... Why did you get to Akay? Boss, are you still there, tell me where the possibility of double black is? 】

[This sentence is not finished, and I can't jump to conclusions directly.] However, the previous clues have been sorted out.,After that, it will be uniformly posted in the comment area.,You can squat on the fixed code id:B is lying on the corpse]

【！ 】

[It turned out to be you, Mr. B, who has been lying on the corpse for many years, and still has the same demeanor, admire and admire]

【？ How do you feel that you all know this B-kun, so who is he? How come I haven't heard of it]

[Sister you chase

It's even later, Jun B's activity was a long time ago, when Yu Karasawa just appeared on the stage. You may not have heard of this id, but you must know another fixed code, which is A]

【Passing A! Isn't this the iron fan of Sugar Candy! 】

[Right...... Mr. B has always been a firm Tang Hei theory, and the comment area at that time has been fighting AB, and high-rise buildings are building one after another. Since the plot of the old thief is biased towards Tang Zeyu Tie Hongfang, the grand occasion at that time can no longer be seen, and it is already tears when I think about it]

[I see! So now, is Tang Hei finally going to rise! 】

[B is lying on the corpse: Let's wait for the results of Akai and Toko Kudootake's meeting]

【Kudo House Guild ...... This statement is a bit familiar, Gan, like a copy of the black tea meeting]

[Indeed, but in the original black tea meeting, the old thief didn't seem to say what he communicated that day in the end, right? ] 】

To prevent loss of contact, please remember the alternate domain name of this site:

【？ So will the old thief remake release the full content? I was just chasing more in the Buddhist department, and as soon as you had a fight in the barrage, you suddenly got up in anticipation and helped! 】

[Me too]

【…… I'm so anxious, I'm really anxious, old thief, when are you going to draw the next chapter! 】

[In fact, it doesn't matter if the content is released or not, as long as the two people can catch up, they can still guess what they said in the follow-up plot, and the change of attitude is not impossible to push back.] The most feared thing is another situation, the old thief is writing a blank check again]

[Because maybe-Toko and Akai may not be able to meet smoothly? ] 】

Late at night, Kudo otaku.

The barrage reached a delicate consensus in the midst of the quarrel, and regardless of the point of view, they all looked forward to the meeting with bated breath.

And on the sofa in the living room, Shuichi Akai and Conan are also waiting.

The moment he removed the mask of Okiya, it seemed that a gentle, black-bellied soul had left Akai Shuichi's body. The FBI agent who acted in his true form wore a black knitted hat and a sharp look in his turquoise pupils, guarding against every movement with falcon-like acumen and vigilance.

He clasped his hands to his chest and paced slowly between the coffee table and the TV.

As for Conan on the couch behind him - he was still struggling to catch up on his missed elementary school homework.

Conan came to Kudo's house after school, but as the daylight passed, the night gradually rose, and the door and window were silent. Amuro never showed up, and Conan tried to ask Shuichi Akai why, but the black-haired man shook his head.

It seems that he is determined to keep the riddler to the end, Conan half-moon eyes hehe.

Boredom, he had to find something to pass the time, and before he knew it, the hour hand was approaching twelve, and Conan put the last homework back in his bag.

The huge Kudo house has only the footsteps of the carpet stepping on.

In order to facilitate the smooth infiltration of visitors, they also turned on the TV. The news channel suddenly changed, and the female anchor in the black suit changed her expression slightly: "Let's urgently insert a piece of news." ”

Her expression fell heavy for a moment, and there was a little nostalgia in her ordinary broadcast tone, and Conan was attracted to the attention and looked up at the report.

"In the coastal area of Tokyo Bay, an ocean-going cargo ship caught fire and exploded, and the coast guard has urgently dispatched rescue, because the fire has not been effectively controlled because of the flammable and explosive materials carried on board."

With the introduction of the female anchor, the picture of the news cuts into the monitoring.

A fishing boat in the distance recorded this scene, and in a deep black picture, the orange fire exploded, and the surrounding sea water instantly became transparent!

Like a small nuclear explosion in the night, the shock wave set off huge waves several meters high and spread overwhelmingly.

A dark shadow flew diagonally in the firelight, and a person seemed to jump off the deck, but the monitoring pixels were too low, blurry after magnification, and it was difficult to see.

"Our reporter learned that a patrol ship on duty nearby was also killed at the same time." The female anchor continued, "Experts remind fishermen to pay attention to safety when going to sea, and comprehensively use satellite positioning, radar scanning and other technologies to eliminate risks and avoid collisions on shipping routes. The specific cause of the accident is still under investigation, if you have relevant clues, please call the police in time

Contact ......"

Conan was stunned and said, "Mr. Akai? ”

I don't know when, the wandering Akai Shuichi actually stopped.

He stood in front of the couch, staring intently at the screen, and the noise of the news compared to the surroundings only made the living room more silent.

The faint light of the screen illuminated his deep face, and it was rare to take off the disguise, and the expression between his eyebrows and eyes seemed to be surprised and stunned, but it seemed like another form of dust had settled.

The picture of the news was reflected in the turquoise eyes, and the flames of the explosion were fleeting, but Shuichi Akai remained silent.

- At least at that moment, no one knew what he was thinking.

*

It seemed that after a long time, Shuichi Akai said, "...... It's okay. ”

He didn't mention anything about Anmuro again, but instead bowed his head slightly.

"Boya, you go back first, you've worked hard tonight, get a good night's sleep."

Although he sent Conan away, he didn't see much sign of resting. There was a gurgling sound of running water in the bathroom, and Shuichi Akai quickly washed his face in front of the mirror.

The man's angular face is reflected in the mirror, and the green eyes that seem to be able to see through everything are as sharp and scrutinizing as ever, but the look in it is slightly distant.

Shuichi Akai seems to be briefly mired in a memory.

Although he looked at the mirror, what appeared in his eyes was a different familiar face.

- A cold chin and thin lips that are habitually tight.

The expression of the face was slightly raised by the muscles, and such an arc seemed to be a smile.

Yu Tang Ze hooked the corners of his lips very lightly.

"I'll forget about you, Shuichi Akai, so-"

The person who remembered the FBI agent was pressed against the wall, and from a top-down angle, those dark eyes seemed to spin with a breathtaking glow.

It's like a kaleidoscope reflecting the bottomless abyss.

The slow-flowing color can inhale people completely.

"This promise," he said slowly, "will only be remembered by you." ”

TBC.
