Ke Xue: This police officer is too martial

Chapter 148 The Weak

After listening to Makino's brief description of the case that happened in the afternoon, Haibara Ai lowered her head and thought with a complicated expression.

Since this case is related to the organization, everything can be explained.

The politician who was accused of taking bribes probably knew some intelligence related to the organization, or he had done some "not so bright deals" with the organization.

Therefore, when they learned that he had been targeted by the police, in order to prevent him from saying something he shouldn't say after being formally arrested by the police, the organization eliminated him in advance.

Kenzo Masuyama, also known as Pisco, took on the task.

After this incident was exposed, Pisco was...

Thinking of this, Huihara Ai suddenly remembered an important question.

She looked up at Makino nervously and asked, "Wait! I remember the press conference said that Kenzo Masuyama was shot and killed outside the hotel..."

Makino nodded and said, "Yes, it was Gin and Vodka who did it. They seemed to have been near the hotel all along. As soon as Pisco escaped from the hotel, they drove over."

"What?! But I remember you seemed to say that you chased him out of the hotel. Could it be that you..." Huibara Ai opened her mouth slightly, a hint of astonishment flashed in her eyes.

After seeing Huihara Ai's expression, Makino naturally understood what she wanted to ask, and nodded gently: "To be precise, it was Vodka who shot Pisco, and Gin shot me."

Upon hearing this, Haibara Ai was stunned for two seconds, then immediately began to check Makino's body.

Makino reached out and flicked Huihara Ai's forehead, chuckling: "Do I look like I was shot? Of course I dodged the bullet~"

Haibara Ai:"?"

Haibara Ai covered her head with her hands and blinked dully.

I guess I heard it right just now, right?

What did he just say? Of course he dodged the bullet?
Is this something that should be taken for granted?!
Under Huihara Ai's dazed gaze, Makino continued, "Although I shot them later, they avoided the vital parts and drove away directly."

Haibara Ai:"……"

If Haibara Ai didn't know that Makino didn't like to joke around when talking about serious matters, she would probably have thought that Makino was joking with her.

Although Makino's description was very concise and his tone was very relaxed, she felt that she did not seem to fully understand it.

However, after seeing Makino's underground training room, she already had a certain understanding of Makino's physical fitness and could barely accept the part about "dodging bullets" mentioned by the other party.

After a moment, after sorting out her thoughts, Haibara Ai looked at Makino with a complicated expression.

She didn’t expect that Gin and the organization, whom she had always feared, would be so... uh, ordinary to Makino?
Every time he talked about the organization, she could feel that Makino's tone was very relaxed and natural, as if he didn't care about the "terror" of the organization at all, as if he was talking about ordinary criminals who committed robbery and assault...

after dinner.

Makino and Haibara Ai sat at the coffee table in the living room, preparing to check the information in Pisco's laptop.

After clicking on one of the folders, Huiyuan Ai frowned and said, "No, there's a password."

Hearing this, Makino took the computer from Haibara Ai, opened the system background, and cracked the password in a short time.

Haibara Ai first looked at Makino in astonishment, then turned to look at the computer screen.

She didn't expect that Makino was actually a skilled "hacker", but now she has become accustomed to it.

Every time she thought Makino was amazing, he would always show something new.

Not long after, Haibara Ai carefully looked through the ATPX-4869 information, and a hint of joy appeared in her eyes, with the corners of her mouth slightly raised.

With the addition of this information, the drug information she has is basically enough, at least it allows her to conduct drug research normally.

After noticing the smile on Haibara Ai's lips, Makino nodded. It seemed that the information in the computer would be very helpful in researching drugs.

The information that Haibara Ai currently has is obviously much more than that in the original work.

In the original book, she was able to research a temporary antidote for APTX-4869 on her own with basically no information.

Now, with the drug information available, her research speed and progress should be greatly improved.

As time goes by, maybe she can really research something "amazing".

After taking another look at Haibara Ai who was concentrating on reading the drug information, Makino closed his eyes and opened the task system.

——【Vehicle driving: S.】

The reward for this mission is also an ordinary skill upgrade, without any extra surprises.

Therefore, Makino just took a look, then withdrew his thoughts and closed the task system.

Since his strength has reached a certain level, he hopes to obtain some "interesting and strange" skills or props rather than conventional skills.

……

At the same time, at Dr. Agasa's house.

"Hmm...hiss..." Conan, who was lying on the sofa, covered his neck with one hand and slowly sat up.

"You're awake, Shinichi!" Dr. Agasa, who was drinking coffee nearby, immediately put down the coffee cup in his hand and turned to look at Conan after hearing Conan's movement.

After seeing Dr. Agasa, Conan instantly woke up and remembered what happened before.

He remembered that he seemed to be observing whether there was fluorescent agent on the floor when he was suddenly knocked unconscious by Kenzo Masuyama...

Thinking of this, Conan immediately opened his eyes wide and said anxiously: "Doctor! What happened after I fainted?!"

Dr. Agasa told Conan the information he learned after arriving at the hotel venue, as well as the general content of the press conference he watched on TV not long ago.

After listening to Dr. Agasa's description, Conan fell into deep thought on the spot.

The first thing that can be confirmed is that the criminal who killed the politician was indeed Kenzo Masuyama, as suspected by Officer Makino.

But that's not the point; the point is what happened afterwards.

After escaping from the hotel with him as a hostage, Kenzo Masuyama was actually shot and killed!
Although the police have not disclosed any specific information at this time, they simply stated that the guy who killed Kenzo Masuyama might be his accomplice.

Thinking of this, a solemn look flashed across Conan's eyes.

Judging from the information currently known, both the politician Shigehiko Tsuchiguchi and the president of the automobile company Kenzo Masuyama are probably related to the organization!
Especially that Kenzo Masuyama, he is very likely a member of that organization!
The next second, Conan seemed to have thought of something, and quickly picked up the glasses beside him and turned on the signal tracking function.

Seeing this, Dr. Agasa shook his head and said, "I had already charged your glasses while you were unconscious. But these glasses can only receive signals within a radius of 20km. The two men in black seem to have gone beyond this range. But it is also possible that they have discovered the tracker you put under the car..."

Conan sighed in disappointment: "Really..."

After seeing the expression on Conan's face, Dr. Agasa frowned and said, "Shinichi, no matter whether the case that happened in the hotel today is related to the Black Organization or not, you are too reckless! You are just a child now!
Let alone catching the criminal, you can't even guarantee your own safety now. If that Masuyama Kenzo took you out of the hotel today, how dangerous would your situation be? ! "

Conan: "..."

Although he wanted to refute, Conan knew in his heart that what the doctor said was indeed right.

Even if Kenzo Masuyama was not a member of the organization, his situation at the time was definitely not "safe".

After a few seconds of silence, Conan touched the back of his head embarrassedly and expressed his gratitude to Dr. Agasa. Seeing that Conan's attitude was so sincere this time, Dr. Agasa did not continue to dwell on this matter, but shifted the topic back to the Black Organization.

"By the way, Shinichi, I heard that Makino later chased that Masuyama Kenzo out of the hotel."

"Officer Makino? Wait, so... when Kenzo Masuyama was murdered, Officer Makino was there?!"

"Yes, and it seems that he exchanged fire with the gangsters who killed Kenzo Masuyama."

"What?!" After hearing this, Conan frowned instantly and his brain started working rapidly.

If the two men in black who made Kenzo Masuyama smaller were the ones who killed him...

Could it be that they were the ones who exchanged fire with Officer Makino? !
Anyway, since Officer Makino was present when Kenzo Masuyama was shot...

At this point, Dr. Agasa looked at Conan and suggested: "Shinichi, even that high school student from Osaka already knows your identity. In that case, why don't you tell Makino everything directly and ask for his help?"

Conan: "..."

Hearing this, an unnatural expression suddenly flashed across Conan's face.

In fact, he had thought about this before, especially when he discovered that Officer Makino had a strong ability to solve cases.

However, at that time, he still had the passion in his heart to compete with Officer Makino.

Neither his inner self-esteem nor his pride as the "Sherlock Holmes of the Heisei Era" allowed him to bow his head and ask Makino for help.

As for now...

Thinking of the recent "crushing defeats", Conan's eyes gradually became dull.

After a long silence, Conan raised his head and looked at Dr. Agasa with a haggard look, and whispered: "Doctor, I will think about it carefully these few days..."

……

same moment.

At the organization's base in Haido Town.

Gin looked at Vermouth in front of him with a gloomy look and said slowly: "Didn't you find the computer?"

Belmode took a puff of the cigarette in his hand and nodded, "Well, I looked at the wine cellar you mentioned, and there is nothing there."

Hearing this, Gin narrowed his eyes and turned to look at Vodka beside him.

Voltgaard endured the pain in his left arm, quickly took out a laptop from the cabinet beside him, and started operating it quickly.

A few minutes later, Vodka hesitated and said, "Brother, the last place where the signal appeared was the wine cellar of the old hotel..."

After getting this answer, a hint of doubt flashed in Gin's eyes.

When Pisco was killed, he should have had nothing in his hand except a gun.

Although he hated Vermouth very much, he had to admit that the other party had excellent abilities in all aspects and it was impossible for him to make a mistake like "not being able to find the laptop".

After thinking for a moment, Gin looked at Vermouth and spoke again: "Could it be that those policemen..."

Before Gin could finish, Vermouth shook his head and said, "I thought of this possibility, but apart from the bodies of Shigehiko Tsuguchi and Pisco, they only seemed to have taken away the handkerchief and chandelier that Pisco used to block the firelight as evidence."

Hearing this, Gin nodded silently.

He had guessed this situation, after all, the police had no way of knowing that Pisco had brought a computer into the old building of the hotel in advance.

That being said, there is only one possibility left.

Before carrying out the assassination plan, Pisco had already hidden the laptop somewhere.

And it seemed that he had already noticed that there was a transmitter in his computer.

Thinking of this, Gin's eyes flashed with a fierce light, and he thought to himself: "Damn Pisco... Even if he dies, he will cause trouble for himself!"

After a moment, Gin looked at Vermouth and said, "It's none of your business anymore. We will take care of the rest."

Vermouth glanced at Gin and Vodka who were wrapped in bandages, and chuckled disdainfully: "Oh? Really? Then the next thing will be left to you, a weakling who likes to wrap bandages~"

Gin: "..."

Vodka: “!!!”

Before Vermouth left, Gin stared at Vermouth's back with a fierce look.

Vodka on the side kept looking at Gin cautiously, not daring to make a sound.

Damn you, Belmode, you just left right after mocking my brother, but I still have to stay here...

For some reason, he seemed to see his elder brother angry often recently.

At this moment, he just wanted to find a reason to leave the room as soon as possible.

It was not until long after Vermouth left that Gin spoke up to break the silence in the room: "Has Pisco's residence been cleaned up?"

"I'll go ask now!" Vodka breathed a sigh of relief, quickly stood up and left the room.

After Vodka left, Gin looked at the bandages on his body with a gloomy look, wondering what he was thinking.

……

The next evening.

After receiving Ayako's message, Makino drove to Suzuki's residence.

This afternoon, Jiro Suzuki returned to Tokyo on a private plane. Shiro Suzuki and his wife also rushed back to Beihua to have dinner together and reunite after a long absence.

After entering the living room, Makino immediately saw Suzuki Jirokichi sitting on the sofa.

Although Suzuki Jirokichi is already in his seventies, he doesn't look old at all.

Makino even felt that Suzuki Jirokichi's physical and mental state might be better than Inspector Megure's.

After seeing Makino, Ayako immediately stood up and walked to Makino's side, generously took Makino's arm, and brought Makino to Suzuki Jirokichi.

Sonoko, who was standing nearby, also stood up and looked at Suzuki Jirokichi, and introduced him with a smile: "Uncle, he is..."

Without waiting for Sonoko to finish speaking, Suzuki Jirokichi stood up from the sofa, laughed and patted Makino's shoulders a few times.

"Hahaha! Makino Ryu is a couple, right? I've wanted to meet you for a long time! I've heard about you and Ayako from Shirou and the others a long time ago. Since we're already a family, just call me uncle from now on~"

Without waiting for Makino to speak, Suzuki Jirokichi snatched Makino from Ayako and looked at him expectantly:
"Since we are already family, let's not say those boring pleasantries! I heard that you are very knowledgeable about Kaito Kidd, and even successfully prevented him from stealing treasures?"

Makino: "..."

Ayako, Sonoko: “?”
