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

Chapter 563: Mantis Catching Cicada on the Spider Web
Vermouth was about to suspect that it was Gil's doing, but when she thought carefully about Gin's words, she felt that Gil would not be so stupid as to do something tricky under such tight siege.

Who could that be?

The FBI is causing trouble again?

After thinking for less than a second, Vermouth, as a veteran of the organization who had experienced many battles, directly ordered: "Continue to monitor the car. I will contact others to confirm the situation."

"As ordered!"

call ended.

Vermouth immediately added Kusuda Rikumichi's report to the text message she had just edited, and sent it to Angostura.

Shortly after the text message was sent, before Vermouth could think about what happened next, another phone call came in.

This time it was a familiar number, and Vermouth answered it almost immediately:

"Ireland, what's going on over there?"

"I just received a report from the surveillance members from the outer circle to the middle circle, saying that a suspicious vehicle was spotted merging in... The people below suspect it is an FBI spy."

Ireland's voice was a little somber.

I think he was still a little upset about being tricked in the last operation to crack down on the FBI.

"You found it there too?" Vermouth raised an eyebrow. "What a coincidence! I just reported one here too and I've already told Angostura."

"Are you sure it's from the FBI?"

"Well~ I was just about to ask someone to confirm it, but since you said so... just report it directly."

Vermouth had no intention of covering up for those FBI people - she had boarded Gin's pirate ship, but Gin did not say that the Five Star Group and those FBI people had a "friendly and cooperative" relationship.

Moreover, Gin’s previous attitude was very clear. If the FBI dared to make trouble, they would definitely not show mercy.

It's just business as usual, nothing much to say.

only……

"How was Kiel followed?"

Vermouth frowned, a little confused.

Could it be that the FBI was bold enough to put a tracking device directly on Kil's car? But if that was the case, it would be Kil's fault, after all, they usually check the car for any abnormalities before and after getting in.

She muttered quietly, but Ireland didn't hear it clearly, so he asked in confusion, "What? What did you just say, Belmode?"

“…No, nothing.” Vermouth withdrew her thoughts. “Angostra seems to have replied to my message. I’ll go check it out first.”

"Row……"

After hanging up the call with Ireland, Vermouth opened a fresh text message she had just received.

The text message was written entirely in English, and only asked Vermouth to do one thing - ask his men to locate the vehicles.

But, Vermouth is actually already doing it.

The text message sent by Kusuda Rikumichi included the license plate number of the vehicle. All Vermouth had to do was forward it and explain that it might be a member of the FBI who was tracking him.

"...In the middle circle, yes, Grenz and Alex... Never mind, let's send a group message."

She finally chose the laziest method.

The text message had just been sent when Vermouth suddenly realized something: If the FBI acted as a group again this time, could it be that the organization had those people under its control again?

To be honest, the big net set up by Gin this time seemed to be a waste of resources at first, but when the prey really came, it seemed that they just had to watch the prey dive in... In addition, the scope of this setup almost occupied the entire Haido Town. No matter how you think about it, it is impossible for the FBI to break through the siege by relying on only the FBI like last time.

Vermouth: “…” What if? She was thinking just in case.

What if their organization accidentally wiped out the FBI...it should, probably, perhaps, possibly...it wouldn't have any impact on Gin and the Five Stars Group's original plan...right?

Yes, that's right, this operation was planned by Gin, and Gin should have taken this situation into consideration and made some arrangements.

Vermouth convinced herself in her heart, but she still felt a little uneasy. After thinking for a moment, she sent a text message to Gin to explain the situation.

……

Cupido Park.

"Kil, the mission will proceed as planned. You don't need to worry about the actions of others."
Kiel listened to Angostra's instructions coming from the wireless headset with his eyes lowered.

But soon, in the next second, she raised her head and showed a professional smile on her face: "So, Mr. Domon, in order to save time, let's start the formal interview now?"

She pointed the microphone in her hand at the square-faced man in front of her who looked very upright. People from several nearby TV stations also set up their cameras and aimed them at the target this time - Yasuteru Domon, one of the parliamentary candidates with the highest public support.

And the five bodyguards around him.

As a former captain of the Self-Defense Forces, Yasuteru Domon is obviously very concerned about his personal safety.

The main reason was that he often made some anti-gang and anti-violence remarks, which aroused the hatred of many people, especially some underworld organizations... According to reliable information, Domon Yasuteru was once assassinated by an underworld organization called "Nicankai".

However, the other party is still able to stand here safely, which means that the assassination attempt by Ni Canhui must have failed.

"Well, that's natural."

Domon Yasuki looked very kind, without any airs. After nodding in agreement, he glanced at his watch and said, "Ms. Mizuno, shall we start here?"

"Of course... Ah! I'm so sorry, I seem to be too anxious and forgot to tell you." Just as Gil was about to move forward, he suddenly apologized and explained, "We plan to shoot some daily walking scenes in the interview. The entire interview will not be fixed in one place, but will be carried out while walking... I wonder if Mr. Domon can accept it?"

Domon Yasuteru smiled and nodded: "Of course! In this weather, it would be boring to stay in one place all the time, right? I would also like to take a walk in the park."

At this time, the sky was covered with dark clouds, leaving no gap for the sunlight.

With a smile on his face, Kiel listened to the instructions in the earphones, as if he was not a messenger who was leading people to the underworld, while guiding the target to walk on the trail.

"Mr. Domon, we have recently received messages from some citizens regarding the council election. I would like to ask you what your philosophy is for running for election this time?"

"Hahaha! That's a good question... My philosophy, or rather my ideal, is that I hope that Japan can be harmonious and stable. However, some evil forces in the country are rampant..."

Two people walked slowly along the trail.

The target, Yasuteru Domon, and the bodyguards around him were completely unaware that the crisis had already arrived.

Kil did not show any sign that she was one of the hunters. She just asked some normal questions. Even when some passers-by recognized Yasuhiro Domon and came up to ask for his autograph, she stood aside and waited without being impatient.

She didn't need to rush.

Because the person in front of him would have no chance of survival - as long as he was within the scope of Beihu Park, there would always be at least one sniper rifle pointed at Yasuteru Domon's head.

And until now, no one has pulled the trigger of death, that's just because...

'FBI...how did those people follow us?'
Kiel lowered his eyes.

Did she reveal some flaw and get discovered? Or was there some device placed somewhere she hadn't noticed...

Whatever the case, Kiel shares the worry.

For myself and for the FBI...

It’s fine if these FBI agents are courting death, but don’t drag her into this!
