Daily Spy Life in the Detective Conan World

Chapter 1005 The dove takes over the magpie's nest
This guy isn't very honest.

Xia Chuan quietly placed his foot on another finger.

The meaning couldn't be clearer.

Sure enough, Shiraishi immediately jolted, enduring the pain in his back from pulling his muscles, and forcibly moved his arm away.

“Although I don’t know the exact location, Akai Mary is at the organization’s base, and you will definitely go there, sir.”

There is some truth to this statement.

Where is the organization's base?

Next, Shiraishi named a place.

Xia Chuan: "."

He suddenly felt that investigating the Hall of Hope was really a waste of time.

Gin had sent him this address before.

No, to be precise, it was sent to Agave.

Gin is indeed bold. I wonder if Karasuma Renya knows this. If he knew that the other party gave out the address so easily, would he be so angry that he would shoot Gin dead?

He must be reluctant to part with it.

Which boss wouldn't like a selfless and dedicated employee like Gin?
Of course, it would be better if he could kill fewer of his own people.

"Thank you for your cooperation, but I can't let you leave in a short time. Also, your injuries might worsen if they aren't treated soon."

Xia Chuan glanced at the other person silently.

These are my problems for now. I can't think of anything else yet, but I'll think of something else later.

As for letting the other party go, that is certainly true.

There was anger in Shiraishi's eyes.

They promised to forgive themselves, but it turned out to be empty words.

"Don't make that face. If I said I wouldn't kill you, I wouldn't. Why would I lie to you? I'm just worried you'll tip off Karasuma Renya. Focus on your treatment first, and I'll prepare a million US dollars for you to leave for distant lands later."

Xia Chuan wouldn't be stingy with those who were willing to cooperate, especially since he might need their help someday.

Xia Chuan reached out and pressed on Shiraishi's neck, causing him to fall into a coma.

The vast snow-capped mountains shone brightly under the sunlight.

Several jeeps were parked at the entrance of the observation station.

A dozen or so people, including Frank, rushed in.

Frank marveled at the smell of blood mixed with gunpowder inside.

"Xia Chuan, you're amazing! You took down an entire base all by yourself, without even needing Joel's help."

Xia Chuan was in the control center, having already repaired the base's surveillance system. He laughed through the loudspeaker, "The real experts are all in the distillery; there aren't many capable fighters in this base."

Indeed, apart from Shiraishi, none of them are any good fighters.

Furthermore, Shiraishi's fighting skills are not strong; he is more like a strategist.

Tactical dominance and overwhelming combat power—that's the reason for their success.

Ultimately, success comes down to one's fundamental attributes as a well-rounded individual.

Apart from Shinichiro and Kaori Shinmei, the people Frank brought this time were all people he trusted.

Of course, Yuri's men were among them.

Even before handing over Mary Akai, Yuri had already anticipated being punished, so he made an agreement with Natsukawa in advance.

The police officers who came were all Yuri's trusted subordinates.

However, Xia Chuan still took precautions.

Once inside the observatory, no one except Frank could leave, and only Frank could contact the outside world.

The dove occupies the magpie's nest.

From now on, this will be their new base.

Even if Karasuma Renya knew that something had happened at the base, he could only swallow his anger.

Moreover, he has no way of knowing yet.

After taking control of the base last night, Frank used surveillance footage to pinpoint the location of the escapees.

The matter was ultimately resolved before the other party entered Nagano city.

As long as Karasuma Renya doesn't contact them, he'll never know that the base has fallen.

This is where Shiraishi's role comes into play. Natsukawa arranged for the opponent to receive treatment immediately, and Karasuma Renya's subsequent contact with the base also allowed Shiraishi to continue stalling the opponent.

Natsukawa himself returned to Tokyo.

As soon as I got home, Conan sneakily came over to ask what happened.

"Xia Chuan-ge, where have you been these past two days?"

After Mary Akai was taken away by the Black Organization, Conan originally wanted to find out what was going on from Natsukawa, but he couldn't find her for a long time.

"He went to Nagano Prefecture to cause trouble for Karasuma Renya."

"Huh?" Conan was taken aback for a moment, then choked with speechlessness: "If you don't want to talk about it, fine, but don't try to fob me off with this kind of meaningless talk."

That's just how Conan is.

If you tell him the truth directly, he might not believe you.

This trick always works.

"I heard about Akai Mary. So, has Shuichi Akai made any moves?"

Conan stared intently into Natsukawa's eyes, wanting to see if his conscience would bother him after saying those words.

The FBI later learned that the incident was inextricably linked to the police.

Xia Chuan is Yuri's brother-in-law; there's no way he wouldn't know anything.

"I have a feeling that Shuichi Akai wants to kill you."

"Let him come."

Xia Chuan's words are tantamount to an admission.

"So Akai Mary has been in the hands of the Public Security Bureau all along, and you didn't tell me."

Xia Chuan had no intention of chatting with the children much; he planned to check out the situation near Gin's base that afternoon.

While you're at it, contact Baileys and ask if they know where Karasuma Renya is.

Damn it!
Having been kicked out, Conan glared at the Natsukawa family's door with gritted teeth.

"We have to find another way to make Xia Chuan treat me as one of his own."

Conan returned to the agency with his chin in his hand and saw a client coming in to explain the case. He immediately forgot about Natsukawa's matter.

Every case is a case. Let's put Xia Chuan's matter aside for now and have some more fun deductions later.
Tokyo is densely populated, but once you leave the city center, the suburbs are almost deserted.

After coming off the main road, the GTR drove along a winding dirt road for a long time before finally stopping next to a dilapidated pavilion.

Besides the GTR, there is also a brand new, gleaming motorcycle here.

The motorcycle has the car company's logo on its body.

This is the latest model motorcycle from the car company that Pisco was in charge of before his death.

Although Pisco died, Gin still managed to take control of the company.

In fact, the same applies to the Houmoto family.

I heard that there have been some major changes in the ownership structure of the Yamamoto family recently. Yamamoto Natsue has the shares, but she no longer has control over the conglomerate.

"Xia Chuan, why are you contacting me at a time like this?"

Baileys seemed very unhappy.

When I first received the text message, I thought it was from Natsukawa asking about my safety. But when I opened it, damn it, the first thing he said was, "Where are you? Where is Karasuma Renya? Is Gin at the base?"

Not a single word of concern.

What she wanted was very simple: Xia Chuan's concern. Wasn't he satisfied if she just endured it and acted as a subordinate?
To this, Xia Chuan could only say...

Pooh.

dream!

His kidneys and heart both belong to Joel.

"Judging from your mood, you seem to have escaped suspicion. You did a good job."

"Please, don't talk to me in such an arrogant tone. We're not in a superior-subordinate relationship."

"Isn't that right?" Xia Chuan feigned ignorance.

"If I'm on top and you're on the bottom, you can say whatever you want."

This remark sounded inappropriate, so Xia Chuan pretended not to hear it.
