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

Chapter 517 Such a Big Undercover

Facing the black muzzle of the gun pointed at him by Ireland, Jinpei Matsuda's face showed only a hint of surprise, but no other unnecessary emotions.

Maybe a little bit... speechless?
In front of him.

Ireland's face was grim, but he didn't pull the trigger.

——He doesn’t have a silencer, and firing a gun here is undoubtedly exposing himself.

He had just received Vermouth's retreat signal and was about to leave, but he unexpectedly ran into Matsuda Jinpei...

"We can only take him as a hostage." Ireland felt heavy-hearted.

however.

"But he has already left."

Matsuda Jinpei's words took Ireland by surprise and left him a little dumbfounded.

The former continued to play blind, "Oh yeah, when I went to the office he was gone... No wonder, it turned out to be fake, I was wondering why the office was such a mess."

"Yeah, it's okay. I guess the documents are just lost. It might be done by some rampant criminal gang."

"Okay... Officer Megure? He should be in contact with the prefectural police. I'll go tell him right away. I'll leave the management officer to you, Sato... and Takagi."

After a long conversation, Matsuda Jinpei hung up the phone and looked at Ireland expressionlessly, "Why aren't you leaving yet?"

Ireland's eye twitched, "You are..."

Oh my god, this rising star of the Metropolitan Police Department’s First Investigation Division… is actually one of us?
Outrageous!
"Mr. Blade asked me to help look after it." Matsuda Jinpei glanced at his watch with his half-moon eyes, "You should leave quickly. I have to go upstairs to report."

"...Okay, thanks."

Ireland made the sign of the cross in his heart, silently thanked Gin for his magical way of placing people, and immediately left with his luggage.

Seeing that he was trying to go out through the main gate, Matsuda Jinpei quickly reached out to stop him, "I said, it's better for you to go that way... Almost no one goes in and out of the back door over there, but I told them you left a long time ago."

"…Uh, yes, thank you."

Ireland twitched his lips, followed Matsuda Jinpei's advice and changed direction.

Damn it, there is such a powerful guy among his own people in the Metropolitan Police Department. It really makes him... have the urge to sneak in again.

……

Jinpei Matsuda watched the other party walk away, sighed dejectedly, and returned to the base camp of the Investigation Section 1.

In fact, from the perspective of his professional ethics, he should have arrested the man.

But he recalled his meeting with Gin, Stella and Amber this afternoon, and after considering his current situation, he found that letting them go was the most appropriate thing to do.

——After all, he was such a big undercover agent, and it seemed a bit unreasonable for him to do nothing to help his teammates in their critical moment.

Moreover, from what he saw from the conversation between Gin and Angostura in the afternoon, this organization's main target was the prisoner.

As for Ireland's purpose in sneaking in, Jinpei Matsuda didn't care.

As long as he doesn't kill the police, he won't cross his bottom line...

Thinking about it this way, Jinpei Matsuda realized that his bottom line was quite low.

Back in the hall of the Investigation Division 1, Matsuda Jinpei pretended to be a little anxious and slapped Inspector Megure's desk:

"Inspector Megure! The manager just now was a fake! The office is a mess now..."

"Wait a minute, Matsuda, what am I saying to you?" Officer Megure, who was on the phone, suddenly glared, "You said Manager Matsumoto..."

"Ah, Sato and Takagi found the real administrator in the Beika Forest." Matsuda Jinpei said seriously, "The administrator over there is still unconscious and has been sent to the hospital by Sato and others... When I went to the office just now, the fake administrator had already left."

Officer Memu: "..."

Ni Ma, what kind of amazing development is this?

Inspector Megure was shocked by the amount of information revealed in Matsuda Jinpei's words. He felt like he was in a dream and couldn't come back to his senses for a long time.

Finally, he even forgot that he was still on the phone with other county police, and roared directly to the whole class:
"Everyone! Check the manager's office immediately! Contact the theft department to check if there is any missing information! And the forensic department! Right now!!" Matsuda Jinpei: "..."

Next time, remember to stay away from Inspector Megure...

His ears hurt!

And got spit all over his face...

Rubbing his poor tortured ears, Matsuda Jinpei regained his dead fish eyes and said, "Officer Megure, I'm going back first. I have an appointment to have dinner at Mr. Lin's house... I'm leaving now."

Officer Memu: "..."

How come Matsuda is still in the mood to eat at this hour?!

What? With Mr. Lin?

Oh, that's alright...

"Brother Matsuda!" Officer Megure suddenly put his hand on Matsuda Jinpei's shoulder and said, "Please ask Mr. Lin about this matter and see if he has any solution."

Inspector Megure looked ready to die.

If this matter is not handled properly, his official position may be in jeopardy.

Matsuda Jinpei failed to understand the bleak mood of Inspector Megure. "Okay, I will. I'm leaving now."

All in all, he had been dawdling at the Metropolitan Police Department for more than an hour... Yes, starting from the time he brought over the girl named Sera Masumi.

Matsuda Jinpei's eyes flashed, and a guess about the other party flashed through his mind. In the end, he couldn't figure it out, so he simply let the thought spread in his mind.

What he will face next is most likely Lie... Well, maybe Lie will be very angry?

After guessing Rei's reaction, Matsuda Jinpei suddenly felt in a good mood again.

——If Lie is happy, then he is often unhappy. Thinking this way, if Lie is unhappy, then he will be happy.

reason?

Do you need a reason to be happy?

……

Bitterfor Hotel, Shibuya.

Sera Masumi returned to her room in silence...and to the door.

She had covered for Matsuda Jinpei before, mainly because Matsuda Jinpei told her before he took her to the police car that the people in the organization had begun to take action, and asked her not to alert them...

In fact, Sera Masumi was also annoyed by his recklessness today.

The main reason was that she had discovered so many bombs, and she thought about how many innocent citizens would be harmed by these evil bombs. She got angry and ended up shooting the wrong person...

The most embarrassing thing is that I haven’t played it yet.

Sera Masumi sighed, rummaged in his trouser pockets, and paused.

"Oh...where's the room card?"

Her expression suddenly became serious.

Could it be that he lost it during the fight with that police officer?
No, it shouldn't be like that. No suspicious objects were found scattered at the scene, which means...

Masumi Sera looked at the door handle of the room solemnly.

That is to say...

She didn't bring her room card.

Yes, that's right, the room card was taken away by her mother...

Or, pry it in?
