Conan: Rice Flower Spring

Chapter 1 1. Tequila is dead

"Brother Ryoma! Doi was captured by Gin's men!"

Lin Longma was sitting in the office reviewing documents when one of his subordinates rushed into the office in a hurry.

He paused and raised his head: "Who captured Tui?"

"It's Gin's people."

"Why?" Lin Longma put down the pen in his hand and asked his subordinates calmly.

"It seems to be because of intelligence. Tequila had intelligence problems when he was on a mission today. Gin captured Doi and wanted to hold him accountable."

The subordinate answered quickly. As soon as Doi was arrested, he went to find out the reason why Doi was arrested. After finding out the reason, he hurried to report to Lin Longma.

"Is there really something wrong with Doi's information?" Lin Longma knocked on the table and asked his subordinates.

“This” The subordinate hesitated for a moment and then answered firmly: “Brother Longma, you understand us.

When it comes to intelligence acquisition, we are the most professional in the entire organization. Moreover, the mission to Tequila is just an ordinary transaction mission, and Doi will definitely not mess it up.

Brother Ryoma, do you think Gin is targeting you?"

"Be careful with your words!" Lin Longma glared at his men. They were still in the organization's stronghold.

Although this base was run by Lin Longma like an iron barrel, and everyone from top to bottom was his own people, but walls have ears, and there are many examples of people in the organization causing trouble through words.

"Sorry, Brother Longma." The subordinate realized that he had said something wrong and immediately lowered his head.

"Do you know where Doi was captured?" Lin Longma did not delve into his subordinate's slip of the tongue and asked instead.

"Know!"

"Okay, then arrange a car and we'll go over to see what Gin is doing!"
.
Lin Longma sat in the back seat of the car with his eyes closed, but his thoughts never stopped.

Gin's sudden attack disrupted the long-standing tacit understanding between the two parties. The most important thing is that Lin Longma didn't know whether Gin's behavior was sudden or deliberate. But no matter what, he felt it was necessary to keep a backup plan and make preparations in advance.

In this organization, if you don't have a backup plan or a way out, you will be doomed.

Hayashi Ryoma was born in an ordinary family in Tokyo. The so-called ordinary family means that although they live in Tokyo, they are not very wealthy.

Most of the monthly income has to be paid to the landlord, and the remaining money is only enough to support the family's tight life.

Lin Longma is an only child, with no brothers or sisters. Although his family life was poor during his childhood, it was also considered happy. Happiness is sometimes really unrelated to wealth.

Unfortunately, hemp ropes tend to break at the thinnest part, and misfortune tends to pick on the unfortunate. An accident took away Lin Longma's parents, leaving him an orphan in his youth.

Originally, the days that followed for Lin Longma should have been a history of hardship for a young man struggling to survive, but fate is sometimes so unpredictable.

Lin Longma's teacher informed him that there was a large company willing to sponsor an orphan like him who was both talented in character and learning. He had already applied for Lin Longma, but he did not expect that the application would be approved very quickly.

Although it was not much, it was enough to support Lin Longma's life and study. In addition, he had a good learning talent and worked very hard. Lin Longma passed all the exams.

Finally, after graduating from university, he successfully joined this large company with a grateful heart.

But soon after joining the company, Lin Longma discovered that this company was not as simple as it seemed. As the working hours increased, the organization that was originally disguised as a charity began to reveal its true face to Lin Longma.
.
"Brother Longma, we're here."

The subordinate opened the car door and woke up Lin Longma who was dozing in the back seat. After getting out of the car, Lin Longma straightened his suit jacket and walked into this inconspicuous little bar.

"Brother Lin!"

"Good morning, Brother Lin." "Brother Lin, welcome."

All the way into the bar, the staff who recognized Lin Longma stood with their hands down and bowed to him to greet him.

Lin Ryoma also frequently nodded in response to the people around him. He was very popular within the organization, completely different from cadres like Gin who were terrified at the mention of him.

He walked all the way to the deepest part of the bar, where a staff member called the elevator. There were no buttons in the elevator, but after Lin Longma and his men walked in, the elevator started running automatically.

The elevator ran down for about forty seconds, then slowly stopped. After opening the door, Lin Longma found that Gin's follower Vodka was already waiting at the elevator entrance.

"Lin, my brother knows you're coming, so he asked me to come pick you up."

Vodka's attitude made Lin Longma's eyes move slightly, and then he nodded and followed Vodka through the underground corridor.

Finally, Vodka stopped at a door and knocked, then signaled to Lin Longma: "Brother is inside."

Lin Longma said to his men, "Wait for me here."

Then he pushed the door open and walked in.

The door was closed by Vodka from behind, and Lin Longma was observing the situation in the room. This should be an observation room, the kind with one-way glass that can observe the situation in the interrogation room.

Gin stood in front of the one-way glass, observing the situation in the interrogation room.

"You're here, Lin Ryoma." Hearing the noise behind him, Gin didn't turn around, but just stared at the glass and said.

"You caught my man, Gin." After years of working together, Lin Ryoma knows what kind of person Gin is.

There is no need to beat around the bush when talking to Gin. Gin will even get impatient if you beat around the bush.

Lin Longma walked forward and looked at the one-way glass, inside which was Doi who was being interrogated.

Doi in the interrogation room seemed to be very stable at the moment, and the people inside did not torture him. However, Lin Longma could tell a lot from his questions and answers.

For example, Tujing inside was not only confused, but also looked bewildered.

After watching this inexplicable interrogation with Gin for a while, Gin suddenly said: "Tequila is dead. He died on the mission."

"What the hell?" At that moment, Lin Longma thought he was hallucinating.

"Tequila is dead," Gin repeated.

In an instant, Lin Ryoma understood why Gin suddenly sent people to capture Doi.

It wasn't that Gin was suddenly attacking him, but a senior official of the organization had died, and this matter had to be made clear.

The nature of the organization determines that the accidental death of a senior cadre will involve a lot of trouble.

For example, Tequila’s death caused the emergency cleanup of one base and the emergency relocation of multiple bases.

In addition, many members who have had interactions with Tequila have to go into silent silence, and some even have to be sent directly out of the island country.

This loss is not a small amount, so the cause of Tequila's death must be found out.

"How did Tequila die?" Lin Longma still didn't understand. It was just an ordinary transaction task. Why did Tequila suddenly die?
