Conan: I'm Really Not the Manipulator - Page 296
Zhu Fujingguang's heartbeat suddenly accelerated, and he subconsciously touched the back of his ear. Now there was no pain or itchiness there, and there was no blood spot when touched.
But he had already believed what Aoyagi Binkou said.
At the same time, another thought quietly crossed his mind.
——Sure enough, someone pinched his ears when he was unconscious.
……
Edogawa Conan walked down the stairs and thought of the conversation in the kitchen and sighed softly.
Aoyagi Akimichi went up alone, while he and the public security policeman named Morufushi took the elevator downstairs. When they were almost at the fifth floor, Officer Morufushi said he still wanted to check out the safety passage, so they got off the elevator on this floor and started walking down.
Mr. Aoyagi is a mature and reliable FBI agent. Facing one or two armed gangsters should not be a problem. What worries him most is Haibara.
She ate more cake than him, but she should have turned back into a child now. I hope she hasn't been caught and the people in the organization haven't discovered that adults can become small...
Edogawa Conan was lost in thought, then looked up at Morobushi Kagemitsu who was walking beside him.
He was really curious about why the organization targeted this public security officer, but due to the other party's identity, he could not ask the same questions as he would when facing the public or ordinary police.
In the end, he remained silent, and Zhu Fu Jingguang spoke first: "Conan-kun, are you tired?"
"Ah?" Edogawa Conan was stunned.
Zhu Fu Jingguang smiled and said, "If you are tired, you can tell me and I can carry you."
Edogawa Conan looked at his abdomen. Although he was already dressed, he remembered the following scene: "I'm not tired. I just walked up a few flights of stairs."
"That's good." Zhu Fu Jingguang said, he paused, and added: "Stay closer to me, if there are other criminals nearby, I can protect you."
Edogawa Conan blinked, and in response to such well-intentioned remarks, he obediently took a step closer and grabbed the hem of Morobushi Kagemitsu's clothes from an angle that would not hinder his movements.
With such contact, he couldn't help but want to say a few more words.
"Officer Morifushi—can I call you that?"
Seeing this seemingly good-tempered public security officer nod, Edogawa Conan asked tentatively: "Are you here today to catch the bad guy who attacked you?"
If he directly mentioned the dead congressman, he would inevitably be suspected of not being childish and asked if it would be better to catch the bad guys. He remembered that Ayumi and the others liked to ask this question when they met the police on the road.
“Yes, we have a lot of work to do.”
Edogawa Conan felt a little depressed when he heard this tone that didn't arouse any suspicion but was just meant to fool the children. He was about to ask from a different angle for more details but he suddenly stopped.
Not far ahead, a bloody smell filled the air.
Chapter 351: Former Bourbon Meets Gin on the Road
At this time, Conan Edogawa and Keimitsu Morobushi had already arrived on the third floor.
When he smelled the blood, he was startled and quickly let go of Zhu Fu Jingguang's clothes and wanted to run down, but after taking two steps, his arm was grabbed.
Zhu Fushiki Jingguang stopped him, but instead of grabbing his collar and throwing him back roughly like Maori Kogoro did, he just made a gesture of silence with his other hand.
Edogawa Conan understood immediately and shut up. After Morobushi Keimitsu went down first, he followed him quietly, and when they reached the corner, he carefully poked his head out.
There were several people lying in a mess on the platform below.
Two of them were lying in a corner, wearing suits, looking like ordinary office workers or guests who came to watch the game. There was another person beside them.
The man fell face down on the steps, with a pool of blood under his head, dripping down the steps. The smell of blood came from here.
When Edogawa Conan saw the black clothes on him that were consistent with what Dr. Agasa described, his expression changed slightly.
Zhu Fu Jingguang also had a bad expression on his face. He glanced around and when he found nothing unusual, he quickly went downstairs in two steps.
He squatted down to feel the pulse of the man in black, then turned around to check the other two, with a hint of anxiety on his face. Edogawa Conan followed behind him, and he saw his movements and realized that these two people might also be public security police.
Edogawa Conan didn't say anything. Seeing that Zhufushi Jingguang couldn't take care of him for the moment, he had to use his own strength to flip over the body of the man in black.
Under the dim light of the emergency passage, he saw a bloody face.
The man in black had his eyes wide open, his forehead sunken, and blood flowing from his broken brows to his nose and mouth. His death was quite horrific.
"..."
Conan Edogawa looked at this dead man who was suspected to be the organization's tracker, and his expression became even uglier.
How did he die?
An accident? Someone killed him?
If it was murder, who did it? The others? The two police officers who fell to the ground? Or someone with a different background...
Conan Edogawa's thoughts were in a mess, and beside him, Morobushi Kagemitsu confirmed that his colleague was okay, so he turned around to check the situation here again, and he saw the body turned over.
"Conan-kun."
He frowned slightly at the sunken head on the corpse, and then looked at Edogawa Conan worriedly: "Are you okay? If you are scared, close your eyes, I will take you down immediately."
Hearing that he didn't blame him for moving the body, Edogawa Conan breathed a sigh of relief. At the same time, he shook his head and looked at the other two people: "Officer Morobushi, these two are..."
"Don't be afraid, they are my colleagues and also from the Metropolitan Police Department," said Zhu Fujingguang.
"How are they?"
"Just unconscious."
Zhu Fu Jingguang sighed imperceptibly and felt a slight headache.
Fortunately, Ishigami and the others were not dead and had no obvious external injuries. Due to the limitations of the surrounding environment, he was unable to check in detail whether there were any pinholes on their bodies.
As for the man in black - probably a member of the organization - he was most likely killed by someone grabbing his hair and hitting the stairs repeatedly.
This kind of method would not be used by the public security. Even Senior Ishigami, who has an extremely tough style of doing things, would try his best to capture the criminals alive, because only living people can be interrogated for intelligence. They would even take care to avoid seriously injuring the enemy.
The brutal opponent's position was unclear and he didn't know whether he had gone far. He had to get them both to a safe place as soon as possible.
However, this is the biggest problem at the moment - if there were colleagues or reliable adults around him, he would ask them to go and call for help first, and he would stay here to guard two unconscious colleagues, but there was a seven-year-old child next to him.
Even though this child was unusually precocious and was not afraid of seeing a corpse and dared to move around, Zhu Fu Jingguang did not dare to treat him as an adult. If there were people from the organization hiding nearby and took him hostage, it would be troublesome.
Thinking of this, Zhu Fu Jingguang couldn't help but complain about Qing Liu Bingguang.
If he had come down with them at that time, there would not be this problem... I don't know what was wrong with me at that time, but when I heard him speak, I naturally chose to obey him.
"Officer Morobushi."
Edogawa Conan suddenly shouted and took out his cell phone from his pocket: "Do you want to call the Metropolitan Police Department to explain the situation here? If your cell phone doesn't work, you can use mine first."
Zhu Fu Jingguang looked at him without saying anything.
Just now when he was up there, he found that his cell phone was not working and did think about borrowing it.
It's just that Qing Liu Bingguang's things can't be borrowed unless it's absolutely necessary. The two of them have special identities, and using each other's communication tools will cause a lot of subsequent troubles. As for this child...
Zhu Fushigi Kagemitsu thought about the little thing that was taken away by Furuya Rei and the guess he had mentioned to him, and fell silent for a moment.
Just at this moment, a strange movement attracted his attention.
He looked up and saw that the emergency passage was not completely enclosed. There was a small window at a high position at each corner. At this moment, he heard a faint sound coming from outside.
"Da da da da..."
Edogawa Conan also heard it, and he realized something instantly:
"Could it be..."
……
On a street outside the hotel.
Due to large-scale events, traffic control in some areas and sudden car accidents, long streams of traffic gathered on several main roads leading to the beach. Standing at the intersection, you could hardly see the end, and the honking of horns was deafening.
The traffic policeman who arrived was directing traffic with a haggard look on his face. He had just finished calming down an angry driver who stuck his head out and cursed, when he suddenly saw a white shadow flying past along the wall and turning into a small road.
Traffic police: “……?”
He pressed his temple, suppressed the strange thought that he was "hallucinating from working overtime for too long", and turned around to continue giving orders.
Furiya Rei drove a Mazda and used his excellent driving skills to bypass traffic jams. Most of his men could not keep up with him and could only follow him from a distance.
The sound of horns on the road outside was getting farther and farther away. He drove while keeping an eye on his phone, wondering if he would suddenly receive a call or some new message.
The white Japanese car was speeding on the narrow road. When it was about to cross the path and turn into another road, he suddenly caught a glimpse of black out of the corner of his eye.
A black Porsche drove past him.
"!!!"
The unexpected encounter, the familiar car model and license plate made Furiya Rei's pupils shrink suddenly, and his hand instinctively reached for the place where the gun was placed in the car.
However, to his surprise, the car actually drove straight past, and the driver and the other people in the car seemed to have not noticed that there was a white sports car at the other end of the T-shaped intersection.
"........."
As Rei Furugani watched the car driving away, the thought of whether he should chase after it flashed through his mind, and more questions came to his mind one by one.
Is that gin?
He had just been to that hotel? The congressman was related to the organization? Hiro's disappearance was indeed caused by the organization?
But when Furuya Rei was still Bourbon, he knew a little about Gin's style of doing things.
With the killer's caution, when he completes his mission and evacuates from somewhere, he will pay attention to his surroundings and be alert to everything. Even a wild cat on the side of the road looking at him for a second will make him alert, not to mention a strange vehicle that suddenly appears.
If it was really him in that car, it was more like...he had received some important news and had to rush there at this moment, rather than being evacuated.
Furiya Rei didn't hesitate for too long. He took out his mobile phone with one hand and sent an email to his subordinates, reminding them that there was a car suspected to be Gin's nearby and asking them to be more careful. Then he continued to rush to the hotel according to the original plan.
The hotel is built by the sea. As we get closer, the whistling wind seems to bring the scent of sea water.
"Da da da da..."
There were strange noises in the air.
When Fūya Rei heard the voice, he looked up and froze in place.
In the inky night, a helicopter was seen flying towards the roof of the hotel.
