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

Chapter 701 Gin vs Akai Shuichi
Although it is said that it is easy to dodge a spear, but hard to guard against an arrow from the dark...

But what if it was a hidden gun?

Of course, it was not the sudden attack from cold weapons, but the sudden volley of bullets that popped out from the darkness.

——What else can I do?

It's not like Gin hasn't caught bullets with his bare hands before, but this time he was fighting with a junior, and he had to worry about being too powerful and hitting Akai Shuichi so hard that he wouldn't dare to fight back, so he didn't show off his outrageous skill of 'catching bullets' - he just quickly determined the source of the bullet, and in an instant decided that he had the confidence to dodge it, and then...

Then he raised his hand and fired a shot with lightning speed.

'call out--'
"Bang!"
The sound of the silenced gun and the loud bang of the Beretta's muzzle rang out almost simultaneously.

Then there was a "clang" sound, the sound of two bullets colliding and then bouncing off.

Realizing that his sneak attack was ineffective, Shuichi Akai's mouth twitched, but he was not careless at all. After firing the shot, he changed his cover and hid, and picked up his silencer by the way.

It’s a pity that the same trick cannot be used a second time... unless he has prepared a box of real grenades.

Shuichi Akai had experienced Gin's physical skills a few years ago. At that time, he practiced with him several times in the training ground, but he didn't even touch the other person's hair. So when he saw that it was Gin this time, he was excited to fight him head-on, but he also kept in mind the other person's close combat strength...

Never engage in close combat with Gin.

But his proud sniper weapon was useless here, and his own shotgun was difficult to use because there were too many obstacles in the building and was easily blocked by fire.

It can be said that there is absolutely no room for Akai Shuichi's expertise here...

"…Why did it have to be Gin?"

Akai Shuichi was a little depressed.

He had been thinking well, if it was the other party's new superior, that An what's the name, who came, then he might be able to use words to buy time, but there was no way for Gin - he had no desire to communicate with Gin, he just wanted to fight with the other party, and Gin probably thought the same.

But being depressed can't solve any problems, so...

We can only follow the original plan and delay!
——Bang!

"Is all you can do about it, Rye?" Gin suddenly spoke.

When Akai Shuichi heard Gin's voice, he was stunned again.

Strange, isn't Gin usually... a ruthless person who doesn't talk much during missions?

And he was facing a traitor...

Gin’s current mentality should be that he wants to kill him to restore his reputation, right?
Subconsciously, Shuichi Akai began to speculate frantically in his heart - this could be considered a sequelae of staying in the organization for a period of time. Speculating on his boss's moods had become a part of his daily life, especially speculating on Gin's.

of course……

After speculating for three seconds, Shuichi Akai felt that his brain might be rusty.

Is this even a guess?
Gin clearly wanted to provoke him to come out!
If he responded, my hiding place would surely be exposed soon, after all, there was nothing to hide in this small place.

If Gin knew that Akai Shuichi's mentality had gone through so many twists and turns, he would definitely laugh at him mercilessly.

However, there was one thing Shuichi Akai was not wrong about - Gin really wanted to see if he could provoke the person to come out.

Of course, I'm not trying to provoke Akai Shuichi...

"Clang!!"

Seeing no response, Gin kicked a piece of steel plate on the ground. The noise was so loud that it was hard for Akai Shuichi not to notice it, so he had to move under cover again.

Looking at the few intact wooden boxes and wall pillars, Shuichi Akai already had the idea of ​​going out to confront Gin head-on, but fortunately he had a plan in his mind, allowing him to suppress his inner impulse as much as possible.

Although he thought he could not beat Gin, he was not afraid to go out and fight Gin.

He was afraid that his impulse would affect Lie and the others' overall plan...

After taking a deep breath, Shuichi Akai still felt that hiding all the time was not a solution, so he immediately took off the shotgun hanging on his back, turned the gun over in his hand, and stretched it out along the edge of the wall.

As a sense of crisis suddenly came over him, he pulled the trigger with his backhand. Gin didn't see clearly what was sticking out from behind the wall, and thought it was the opponent's hand. He fired the shot at the opponent's joints as expected.

but!

When Gin saw the sparks from the spray gun, he couldn't help but be stunned.

The impact points of the shotgun were relatively scattered. Even though the Beretta bullets happened to collide with a part of the shotgun shells, some of them still separated out, and then... they unfortunately brushed past Gin's face.

Gin: "..."

Let him count how many times his troubled face has been injured???
Also, Shuichi Akai brought a shotgun? Oh, yeah, I forgot this guy's favorite gun is the shotgun.

"……whispering sound!"

Gin made an unhappy sound, and his eyes instantly turned eight degrees colder. He emptied the remaining bullets in a second as if to vent his emotions, and then quickly replaced the magazine with a new one.

After finally counterattacking with a shot, Shuichi Akai, who had not yet seen the results, did not have time to take the next step before he was startled by the endless "bang bang bang" sound of gunfire behind him.

Akai Shuichi: "(—")..."

It seems that his hatred value towards Gin is still quite high?
Click~

This is the sound of the magazine being changed.

Akai Shuichi was still thinking about how he could open up a way to survive, but...

The bullets behind me were whizzing towards me like they were free!

Just as he was about to step out, he had no choice but to continue hiding behind the pillar.

He also clearly heard the footsteps getting closer and closer from behind... This time it was not misleading, it was really approaching him!
"... Gin." When the gunfire stopped, Akai Shuichi suddenly spoke, "You should know why I came here... You don't want the secrets of the organization to be revealed to the world, right?"

"..."

Gin didn't say anything, but stopped.

Beretta's roar did not sound again...

However, Shuichi Akai could clearly feel a murderous aura brewing!

"…Traitors, all deserve to die."

Gin's cold voice seemed to come from the underworld.

Shuichi Akai took a sudden step forward, threw something at Gin's face with all his strength, and pulled the trigger at the same time, and the shotgun fire erupted instantly!

Seeing an unknown object flying towards his face, Gin slapped the thing to the ground beside him in disgust, but he also faced the angry sprayer.

……However!
Shuichi Akai could never have imagined that when facing direct firepower, Gin's smile became even more intense, and strangely, he avoided the bullet that would have caused him greater damage at the moment he fired, and directly grabbed the barrel of the gun!
The temperature of the gun barrel after firing two shots was definitely not low, but Gin just grabbed it with his gloved hands, grasped the target, and pulled it directly towards himself.

No one knew when Gin put away the Beretta pistol, and what he was holding in his hand now was a dagger.

Akai Shuichi:......

He had tried very hard to avoid close combat, so why couldn't he escape?!

Tucao returns to Tucao.

Shuichi Akai's reaction was not slow at all. He immediately let go of his beloved gun and pushed back, creating some distance again.

However, cold sweat still inevitably flowed down my cheeks...

...suddenly.

There was a sudden cracking sound above their heads.
