Conan: The Man Behind the Romance

Chapter 312: The situation is reversed! Swallowtail butterfly falls!
Toru Amuro told Rum that he was an undercover agent of the CIA, and after accidentally discovering the ultimate goal of the organization, he decided to abandon the light and join the dark.

The first token of his allegiance he gave was Kiel's true identity. His real name was Hondou Eikai, and he was an undercover agent for the CIA like her.

Ethan Hondou, who died four years ago, was her father. Rena Mizunashi had never been able to withstand the truth serum at all. They were just acting at that time.

These were all discovered by Team Zero through interrogation and investigation overnight.

After hearing this, Rum remained silent, while Toru Amuro continued to talk about how he could help the organization capture Rena Mizunashi and eliminate the CIA base.

Colleagues have been enemies since ancient times. Toru Amuro said sorry to his savior in his heart, but he showed no mercy when it came to cheating the CIA.

Moreover, those CIA people were infringing on Japan's sovereignty. Even as a public security officer, Rei Furuya, he hated those Americans.

Just like Shuichi Akai, he is so high and mighty that he does whatever he wants on other people's land!

"I understand. Let's do this."

Rum hung up immediately after saying this.

Toru Amuro knew the style of the organization and that it was extremely murderous. He kindly asked Hara Yoshiaki to move to another place and then ran away on the spot.

He surrendered to Rum in order to save himself and hide his identity as an undercover police agent, not to commit suicide.

A lot of things happened afterwards, but when Toru Amuro caught Vermouth and contacted Rum, Rum suddenly believed most of his sincerity.

Although……

Toru Amuro knew that he was being contacted by the First Investigation Division and that he could not hand over Vermouth to Team Zero, so he simply contacted the CIA to confirm his identity.

But Rum didn't know all this. He just felt that the traitor Toru Amuro was really cruel to his own people.

What was that called?

Converts are fanatical, right?

Although Vermouth escaped later, that was because an unknown third party was interfering. It was a pity that Rena Mizunashi, who was also present at the time, was not caught. However, a helicopter arrived at that time, so it was not Toru Amuro's fault.

In addition, in the next two days, Toru Amuro led his men to clean up the CIA base and worked very hard, and still gained some trust from the organization.

With his past experience, Rum trusted him even more.

Rum felt that his personal charm probably played a big role in making an undercover agent sincerely join the organization.

Just like that, time passed by in a flash.

Toru Amuro withdrew his thoughts and glanced at the time.

Wednesday, 3:50 p.m.

It was a pity that Shirley and Junerick were not found in one fell swoop, but it was also a good thing that I could access the core secrets of the organization more openly in the future.

A car belonging to a peripheral member in front slowed down slowly. Amuro Toru didn't think any more and honked the horn.

Dudu——!
The horn sounded so loud that the vehicle in front immediately accelerated, but when it reached a fork in the road, it stopped directly.

The car drove to the side of the road, obviously letting Toru Amuro go first. Toru Amuro's car window was open, and he asked casually when passing by them.

"What happened?"

"Sir, there is no navigation signal."

The peripheral member holding the phone in the driver's seat quickly answered, scratching his head in embarrassment.

"Master Voltgar said the mission is over and asked us to leave. However, I am not familiar with this area. I came here just by following the navigation."

Toru Amuro glanced out the window. Under the blue sky were low, old buildings, and below the buildings were broken walls, dry grass, and rusty iron fences.

This abandoned warehouse area is a rare quiet spot in Tokyo's bustling city. It is quite desolate and most people don't usually come here, so it is normal that they are not familiar with the roads.

"Where are you going?"

Toru Amuro took out his cell phone and planned to help.

The peripheral members thanked him repeatedly, but before he could open his mouth to tell the address, they saw Toru Amuro's pupils suddenly shrink.

"Something is wrong!"

Boom——! ! !
Almost at the moment when he finished speaking, a huge explosion sounded at a fork in the road ahead.

Even though the flames were rising from a great distance, the sound was still deafening.

"Gin! Vodka! Hear the reply!"

Toru Amuro spoke hurriedly, but after one second there was no response, so he immediately shifted into reverse gear and stepped on the accelerator to the bottom!
"Retreat quickly! It's someone else's signal interference!"

He also did not forget to remind the peripheral member.

Generally speaking, signal jammers will leave specific frequency bands for their own use and will not block the entire channel.

This was the reason why he was able to communicate with Gin even though he had a signal jammer turned on in the warehouse.

Now the communication between him and Gin has been cut off, and there is no signal on his mobile phone, which naturally means that an accident has occurred here.

Toru Amuro backed up the car, rolled up the window and reached for the gas mask in the passenger box.

The poisonous wind in Tsuburaya-cho on Sunday left a deep impression on him, and he didn't want to experience it again!
Fortunately, there were only gunshots and explosions in front, and no screams after the poison powder entered the body.

But Toru Amuro still did not dare to relax at all. He threw gas masks to the two women in the back seat and asked them to put them on quickly.

It seemed that no one was chasing him, so Toru Amuro parked the car in an open space with a wide view, holding a gun in his hand, and looking around.

At the same time, he glanced at Xuesong Qingzi from the corner of his eye and said in a cold voice: "Qingzi-kun, who did you say helped you kill your father?"

Kiyoko smiled and said, "Nakatani Fumizumi, my beloved."

"We went to his home and company but didn't find him."

"He's very powerful. Could it be that you guys revealed some flaws?"

"You secretly informed him and asked him to come and rescue you, right?"

"Don't talk nonsense, Mr. Amuro. You should know that I don't have that kind of opportunity. You have carefully checked every email I sent to see if there are any hidden codes."

Qingzi lowered her eyebrows slightly, completely hiding her sight.

Amuro Toru thought for two seconds, then turned his head to look at Sato Miwako: "When you left Teitan High School, did Mizuki Hoto and Mao Li Ran say anything?"

Sato Miwako said calmly: "I have already reported it. I only said a few words in a whisper, which was very short. Besides, shouldn't someone be monitoring her now?"

Amuro Toru frowned, this was indeed the truth.

About five minutes ago, the communication had not been disconnected unknowingly, and an external member did report that Mao Li Ran was taking an exam in the classroom.

Even if the communication was cut off immediately after this sentence was finished, it would be impossible for Mao Lilan to rush over from such a long distance.

And as Mizuki Hotaru said before, his and Mouri Ran's "chivalrous deeds" are still at a very early stage, and even pistols have not been involved.

The big explosion or something like that is a bit too much.

It is even more impossible for Mizutsuki Hotosei himself to get hurt. His legs were seriously injured and he was injected with an overdose of drugs. It is impossible for him to even wake up now.

Sure enough, there is a mysterious third party, the force that rescued Shirley!

Thinking of this, Amuro Toru turned around and drove in the opposite direction.

There is no such thing as friendship in the organization. It is normal to let a friend die rather than the poor. Now that Toru Amuro is now wearing Bourbon's skin, he will of course follow this principle.

Moreover, signal interference always has a range. It is reasonable to run out of this range to seek help first, isn’t it?

Toru Amuro has been paying attention to the signals in his mobile phone and headset, but before the normal sounds, there was a strong "zizzle" noise.

Amuro Toru felt a sharp pain in his eardrum and quickly pulled off his earphones, only to see the screen of his cell phone on the armrest suddenly go black.

He raised his hand to press the button, but it didn't light up.

It's broken now?

What a coincidence...

Toru Amuro's pupils suddenly contracted. Earphones, cell phones, electronic components, damn it!
It's an electromagnetic pulse weapon!
Who is the person who acted secretly? This is not a simple move!

Grunt, grunt——!
There was a muffled sound from the hood of the black Passat, the lights inside the car flashed suddenly, and a sharp sound was heard from the radio.

The next second, the vehicle's speed dropped sharply and it continued to move forward only by inertia.

There was a corner not far ahead, and Toru Amuro slammed on the brakes and finally stopped before hitting the wall.

Bang——! ! !
There was a loud noise nearby, as the outer member hit the wall and the airbags popped out.

Toru Amuro took a look at his car, a new model Tesla this year, and guessed that the electronic control unit of his car was damaged and the braking system failed.

Fortunately, my Passat is an antique and does not have too many electronic control systems.

Without caring about the safety of the peripheral members, Toru Amuro got out of the car immediately, let Sato Miwako walk in front and Kiyoko walk behind, and fled from the warehouse area on foot.

There are no obstacles along the way and the exit is right ahead.

However, the moment they saw the exit, all three of them stopped.

There, there was a yellow and black iron roadblock with a wooden sign with numbers written on it hanging on it.

A little girl in a black Gothic dress sat on the roadblock, shaking her little leather shoes, and her red lips under the silver ball mask gently read the words on the wooden sign.

"No passage is allowed in this direction."

Amuro Toru raised the gun and pulled the trigger without hesitation, but before he pressed his thumb down, his pupils suddenly shrank and he dodged to the side.

Dadadadadadadadada——!!

The sound of gunfire suddenly echoed through the corridor. The little girl was holding an AR-15! Puff!
puff--!
Even though he dodged quickly, Toru Amuro's shoulders were grazed by bullets twice, and two long strips of flesh were lost.

What about Miwako Sato who stood before him?
When Toru Amuro retreated back to the corner, he saw that she had been shot at least three times and had fallen to the ground!

Toru Amuro's face turned pale, but he didn't dare to stop for a moment. He immediately grabbed Kiyoko's hand and ran to another alley.

The alley was filled with discarded steel pipes. Amuro Toru took a look and continued running.

Da da—ding ding ding ding—!
Less than three seconds later, gunshots and metal collision sounds were heard in the alley.

"Eh? Are you playing hide and seek? I'm here to find you."

Plus the laughter of a little girl.

Amuro Toru turned his head and said, "She didn't even look at anyone when she shot. Are you sure she came to save you?"

Qingzi was weak, her face flushed from running, and she was gasping for breath. Upon hearing this, she quickly shook her head, her eyes trembling like a frightened deer.

"No...I, I don't know who she is. I said no one came to save me."

Amuro Toru had no time to think about it at this moment, he turned around and continued running, to the next exit...

"Ouch--"

The force on his hand suddenly increased, and Amuro Toru subconsciously stopped and turned back to support Yukimatsu Kiyoko who was about to fall.

"Mr. Amuro, I sprained my ankle. Please carry me on your back. Please..."

Kiyoko looked panicked, her whole body pressed against Amuro Toru, her hands constantly reaching around his neck.

"Surprise!"

Da da--

"Eh? Where is the person?"

The little girl's voice came again from the next alley. Amuro Toru's heart moved and he looked up at the ceiling of the warehouse beside him.

"Mr. Amuro, save me, Mr. Amuro..."

Qingzi's voice became more and more panicked, and there was a sharp tendency to change its tone.

Snapped--!
Toru Amuro slashed Kiyoko's neck with a palm knife, and the world immediately became quiet.

He had to admit that Qingzi's appearance just now was charming and pitiful.

However, compared with life, it is nothing.

"There seems to be some movement, do you want to go in and take a look?"

The little girl's voice continued to be heard, sounding quite soft and cute.

Without any hesitation, Toru Amuro put Kiyoko on the ground, jumped towards the ceiling of the warehouse, and landed silently.

Suddenly, footsteps were heard behind him. Toru Amuro immediately raised his gun and turned around. The peripheral members who had climbed up the wall over there quickly raised their hands and stood where they were.

Toru Amuro felt relieved and was about to continue running away when he heard the outer member speak in a trembling voice.

"Don't shoot! He's in..."

boom--!
Toru Amuro pulled the trigger, his eyes gloomy, and turned and ran.

A bloody hole appeared between the eyebrows of the peripheral member, the panic on his face froze instantly, and his body fell straight back.

"Where did you finish your words, really?"

When Toru Amuro heard the little girl's angry voice, he didn't stop at all. The second alley full of steel pipes was just three meters ahead, and he jumped directly.

Da da da da——

The bullet flew over his head!

"Strange, there's no one up there? Oh no, I guess I was tricked."

The little girl's leather shoes made a crisp sound as they stepped on the ceiling of the warehouse, and the location was clearly identifiable.

Toru Amuro held the steel pipe with his left hand and hung in the air, while his right hand holding the gun handle tightened slightly.

"Eh? A woman?"

The little girl's voice suddenly changed direction, and Amuro Toru loosened his left hand and fell to the ground silently.

boom--!
The next second, a gunshot rang out.

Amuro Toru's eyes were solemn, knowing that Xuesong Kiyoko was probably dead, so he continued to move forward quietly.

Nothing happened along the way, and the little girl's footsteps did not sound again, as if she had jumped to the ground.

Leaving the abandoned warehouse area, there was a deserted wide avenue in front of him. Toru Amuro ran quickly to the other side of the road and then crossed a narrow alley.

Wow——!
Like the surging sea tide, the surging human atmosphere instantly enveloped him. The pedestrians on the street and the endless flow of cars were all so vibrant and alive!
Toru Amuro took a deep breath, and while no one was paying attention, he quickly put away his gun, looked around, and walked towards a hot girl who was leaning against a street light playing with her cell phone.

"Sorry, I'm waiting for someone. No appointment." The hot girl felt someone coming and said without raising her head.

"Can I borrow your cell phone?" Amuro smiled gently.

"Eh?"

The hot girl looked up and her eyes lit up instantly. Just like his voice and image, he was a handsome guy!
"You can make an appointment!"

"..."

Toru Amuro borrowed a phone and immediately contacted Gin, telling him what had happened to him and asking what had happened to the convoy ahead.

In a medical facility somewhere, Gin was lying on a bed with a murderous look on his face.

"How should I know, Bourbon? I am a useless man now!"

[Love +5]

A reminder came from the bottom of his heart, and Yingsheng, who was cleaning the battlefield next to the burning sports car, was slightly stunned.

Once again, who is this person?

Qingzi had provided it twice before, totaling five points.

I wish I had killed someone just now, but I didn’t have enough fun and was very unhappy. I only gave myself a little bit.

Based on past experience, if there is no direct connection with him, then even if there is love coming from the sky, one point is the limit.

For example, that rainy night on Sunday, when he was on the viaduct.

In this incident, the only two women involved were Kiyoko and Hope. How could there be a supplier more powerful than them?

It is really inconvenient not to mark the source before love. Could it be that the unknown god likes hazy beauty?

It's absolutely impossible for Aoyagi Chisume.

Lan is even more impossible.

Other women don't even...

"Cough...cough cough cough!"

Under the burning blue Dodge Viper frame, a brown-red mushroom-head covered in blood and unknown black debris crawled out.

She raised her head with difficulty, and in the air distorted by the flames, she saw the condescending gaze.

Dark, deep, and majestic!
For a moment, Chianti felt that what he saw was not a person, but a statue in a temple.

"Hey, long time no see, Chianti."

But the next second, the statue smiled and turned into a mortal, becoming the Mizuki Hotaru who made her grit her teeth.

"Why? Why can you still stand up!?"

Although the blood flowing out of his lower abdomen had already turned into a stream, Chianti still shouted loudly with strength that he didn't know where it came from.

"Are you talking about my leg injury?"

Yingsheng lifted up his school uniform trousers. They were originally blue trousers, but there were many small holes in them, and they were stained with blood with several black streaks.

Chianti's angry eyes immediately showed an expression of disbelief, because the calf that Yingsheng showed in front of her did not have a single scar!
"How is this possible! I saw it with my own eyes!"

Yingsheng sighed softly: "Nothing is impossible, Chianti, and what did you see? You saw Amuro Toru pull the trigger, and saw the blood bursting out of my leg, and then what? Can you be 100% sure that there was really a bullet that penetrated my calf?"

Chianti was stunned when he heard this, and then his pupils suddenly shrank.

"Bourbon! He's your man!!! You used blank bullets and blood bags to act, and the truth serum and what you said were all fake!"

"That's good to know. Be good and don't make a fuss. It will disturb the God of Death."

Yingsheng's mouth corners slightly raised and his right hand slightly raised.

"Goodbye, Chianti."

Chianti looked at the black muzzle of the gun in front of him, his eyes glaring and his face grim.

"I won't let you go even if I'm a ghost!"

boom--

Gunfire rang out.

In this scorching summer, the brown-red swallowtail butterfly can no longer spread its wings and fly.
