Conan: I'm Not a Model Worker in the Winery

Chapter 343 Yokohama's Trick

"Oh?"

Chablis waited for his drink to be served, holding his chin with both hands. "What? Gin is late? I remember he always seems to arrive early or on time?"

Dubonette continued to sip his coffee, "No, he wasn't late, he just spent an hour reading materials."

Chabli tilted his head: "...Huh?"

At this time, his wine also came up.

Chablis took a sip happily.

"What do you think of him?"

"Very good." Dubonnet looked at the ashes in the ashtray. "I can't imagine what would happen to us if he was a traitor."

Chablis grinned. "So you agree with me, Mr. Dubonnet?"

Dubonnet glanced at him and said, "There are indeed some suspicious aspects about him, but it remains to be seen... Speaking of which, are you sure you want to take responsibility for Yokohama?"

"Oh, don't worry, Mr. Dubonnet, you have to have faith in my intuition~"

"Looking at your identification record, I don't dare to trust you 100%." ​​Dubonnet took out another stack of information from his bag. "The data shows that the probability of your identification being wrong is as high as..."

"Ahem! Mr. Dubonnet, if we don't talk about this, are we still good friends?"

Chablis snatched the other party's information.

But after he took a glance, he realized that he had been fooled - the information was blank.

Facing Chablis' increasingly dangerous gaze, Dubonnet spread his hands and said, "I was just kidding."

"That's not funny at all, Monsieur Dubonnet," said Chablis with a grim smile.

To him, his experiences of failure were stains on his life...and he didn't think they were stains caused by himself, but rather the result of other people's failure to judge him.

Chablis tapped his gloved fingers on the table. "So, Monsieur Dubonnet, did you seek me out to tell me something?"

"There's a person whose whereabouts you might want to keep an eye on."

"Who?"

"Akai Shuichi."

Dubonnet took the blank paper back in his hand and said, "My subordinates said that traces of Shuichi Akai were found in Yokohama."

Chablis' eyes lit up: "Oh? What is he doing in Yokohama?"

Dubonette was speechless for a moment: "Didn't you arrange for someone in Yokohama? Maybe the other party has discovered you."

"...Oh~ is that right?"

Chablis looked as if he had suddenly realized something.

"Also, let me remind you that Gin also asked for information on this person's whereabouts." Dubonnet pointed at the table. "Although I think it's normal for him to want this information, since you want me to pay special attention to him, I'll just tell you this."

"Got it~ And thank you, Mr. Dubonnet." Chablis always narrowed his eyes when he heard the name 'gin'.

Dubonette finished his coffee, put down the quilt, and stared at Chablis. "Where is the person I asked you to find out about?"

"No." Chablis played with his wine glass. "We didn't find anyone with the last name Cang Feng, and we didn't find a man with the characteristics you described."

“…This shouldn’t be the case.”

Dubonnet frowned.

He had been looking for this person, but neither his own intelligence subordinates nor other people had ever seen him anywhere else, except for Vermouth who said that she had seen this person once in Beika Town.

"Why are you looking for this person? Is he special?" Chablis asked curiously.

"More than special." Dubonnet took a deep breath, "The murderous aura on him is the strongest I have ever seen... I dare to guarantee that this man named Cang Fengqian has at least ten lives on his hands."

Chabli held his chin in his hand, not caring, "Oh, only ten?" The average person in their organization has ten, and he has dozens more.

Dubonnet glanced at Chablis unhappily and said:

"Please, this person is not from the organization. He is still at large after taking so many lives. This is enough to show how capable and dangerous he is... If this kind of person cannot be used by the organization, then he must be eliminated!"

He had a premonition that if he left this person alone, it might lead to irreversible consequences!

——This is the intuition of a senior intelligence officer.

"Is that so? Well, I admit that what you said makes sense, but I really don't have any information about this person." Chablis scratched his hair, "Perhaps, you can ask Gin? I feel that his intelligence gathering ability seems to be pretty good."

Dubonette remained speechless: "...Didn't you tell me that Gin was suspicious?"

"But it's true that his intelligence gathering ability is better than mine. Not many of my people have ever worked in intelligence before." Chablis blinked innocently, "It's just that his operations team has fewer people than mine."

Dubonnet looked at Chablis expressionlessly and stood up. "Okay, I'll find someone else to keep an eye on it... I still have to go to work, so I'm leaving now."

Chablis raised his glass and smiled brightly: "Take care, Mr. Dubonnet, thank you for your trust~"

Dubonette gave him a deep look and said, "I hope you won't betray my trust."

"That's natural."

After the conversation, Dubonnet opened the door of the café and walked onto the busy street, leaving Chablis alone in the shop to have a drink.

……

On the street, Dubonnet was no longer wearing a mask.

He was holding a briefcase and walking forward like an ordinary office worker, following the crowd.

"Ah? Aren't you Senior Shangsan?"

Dubonnet heard the female voice behind him, paused, turned around with a smile, and asked, "Who are you?"

"Ah! Excuse me, I'm Nakamura, the new member of Senior Jian Guang's team. I've met you before..."

"Oh... it's you." Dubonnet pretended to realize something and said with a smile, "It just so happens that we're on the way, let's go together."

"Yes! Okay, senior!"

……

organizational base.

Gin drove back to his home with a grunt, took off all his formal clothes, leaving only a vest.

Then he went to get a large jar of water and drank it all in one breath.

"Huh... It's so hot to go out in this weather."

Gin used his hands as a fan and fanned his face a few times.

Although he didn't sweat, it was really hot.

He packed his clothes, then sat down in front of his computer to see if there were any emails he needed to deal with.

"I didn't expect that Akai Shuichi would go to Yokohama. Chablis is really careless."

Gin curled his lips.

As soon as he saw the newspaper report that Akai Shuichi had appeared in Yokohama, his first reaction was that Chablis had been exposed and discovered.

Should he respond or ignore it?

Gin was absentmindedly replying to the email while thinking about this question in his heart.
