Daily Spy Life in the Detective Conan World

Chapter 1050 Mysterious Call
"There's one last question," Shuichi Akai asked slowly and deliberately.

While he was asking questions, Akai Tsutomu and James were not idle either. Instead of going to the room where the team member died, they went in the opposite direction and found Vodka's room.

"Jingle Bell--"

Vodka grabbed his phone, his brow furrowing.

It was a missed call.

The organization's code names and members' phone numbers are all in their mobile phones, including Hondo Eisuke's phone number. This doesn't seem like a telemarketing event.

"Hello, who is it?"

Out of curiosity, and out of boredom while waiting for Hondo Eisuke to return, Vodka answered the phone.

"Vodka, you've been spotted. Get ready."

"What did you say?"

There was no response from the other side.

"Who are you? Speak up, or I'll trace you down the phone line."

The other end of the phone hung up immediately.

This is a strange voice.

Vodka assured that he had never heard the other person's voice before, but the other person seemed to recognize him and could even call him by name.

Could it be that the elder brother had other hidden agents on the train?

"What did he ask me to prepare?"

Despite being an assassin, Vodka still maintained professional ethics.

In case of danger, immediately observe the surrounding situation and check the ammunition.

At this time, the door was knocked.

Vodka looked toward the door with suspicion and uncertainty.

At this time, who will knock on your door?

If it were Hondo Eisuke, there would be no need for that; it could only be someone else.

The door rang several times, and Akai Tsutomu outside frowned.

"Mr. Akai, there seems to be no one inside. Has Vodka already left?"

"impossible."

Akai Tsutomu stared intently at the door for a long while, then kicked it out.

The door swung open with a bang, and a gust of cold wind rushed in.

The room was empty; only the wind blowing in through the open car window caused the curtains to flutter.

The two immediately went into the room and closed the door again.

A moment later, the door to the next room opened.

"Aren't you going to sleep or not so late at night?"

Finding no one in the hallway, the man muttered a few curses and closed the door again.

On the roof of the car, out of sight of the others, vodka was crawling forward.

"Brother, a mysterious person just called me to tell me I've been discovered."

I'm on the top of the train now. Was that person you arranged? Can you have him come and meet me?

"I did not arrange for anyone else to be in the car."

Gin's tone also became strange.

"Don't worry about who this person is for now. Go to carriage number two. The glass there is broken. I'll have Amuro Tooru meet you up."

"Yes!"

The person who appeared in his room was Akai Tsutomu, so Vodka concluded that Hondo Eisuke had been captured by the other party.

He had no intention of saving the other person.

Hondo Eisuke was at best a smarter outsider, and his background wasn't even properly investigated before he died.

After ending his call with Gin, Vodka sent Vermouth a text message.

After getting off from carriage number two, Bourbon was indeed there.

"Vodka, what exactly happened?"

"How should I know? Anyway, Shuichi Akai has found me now, and I've confirmed his room. Let's get ready to make our move!"

Vodka's lips curled into a cold smile. Now it was his turn to retaliate. "What are you thinking? Since you escaped, they'll definitely change the room."

At this time of day, all the curtains in the rooms are drawn; we can't possibly search each room one by one, can we?

Vodka was speechless for a moment.

However, at that moment, the phone rang again.

Vodka picked up his phone; it was an unfamiliar number. But this time it wasn't a call, it was a text message.

"They are in room E of carriage number six."

"Isn't this the room of the agent you killed? Are they playing a game of hiding something under the lamp?"

Even Amuro Tooru was a little confused at this point.

too messy.

Vodka thought about it for a while, and finally told Gin about it.

"I understand. Cohen is ready three kilometers away, on the train's route. He will cooperate with your operation."

"Vermouth will handle Shinichi Kudo's situation for now. You guys deal with the FBI agents first."

This is an opportunity, and Gin certainly doesn't want to let it go easily.

"Big brother, how about we just detonate the bomb?"

Vodka hesitated for a long time before suddenly saying, "I have a feeling that I'm not entirely at ease."

A phone call and a text message really scared him.

There was a mysterious person who had complete control over his movements.

He had checked himself and found no eavesdropping or tracking devices. How did the other party manage to do that?

Upon hearing the word "bomb," Amuro Tooru's eyes widened immediately.

How does this work?
He snatched the phone away: "Gin, are you crazy? Planting a bomb on a train? Do you know how many people are on board?"
"And your target is Shinichi Kudo. If he's killed in the explosion, how can you continue your research?"

Gin simply replied coldly, "I know, it's just a safety precaution. Besides, wouldn't it be better to separate the carriages during the explosion to reduce casualties?"

Vodka's proposal was not accepted by Gin.

"Strange, how did Vodka and Amuro Tooru know that Akai Shuichi and the others were back in room E of carriage six?"

Vodka and Amuro Tooru walked past the room door, and Natsukawa noticed them immediately.

Hidden cameras were installed in the corridor; they were hard to miss.

"Could it be that Karasuma Renya's people have appeared!?"

"But how did he know?" Joel asked, puzzled.

Xia Chuan closed his eyes and pondered, and soon came to an answer: "Unless, Karasuma Renya's people are in carriages five and six."

Only in one of these two carriages could one know the other's room so precisely.

As for other monitoring?
impossible.

The monitoring technology that Natsukawa is currently using is Dr. Agasa's latest research achievement, and it uses a special signal device.

On a high-speed train, the network signal at that time was not strong enough to display video.

Surely we can't just listen to footsteps?

He also investigated carefully and found no other video signals in the car.

"Room A is for vodka, Room D originally belonged to Shuichi Akai, and Room E is for our people, so we'll exclude it for now."

Excluding our room B and room E where Shuichi Akai is currently in, only rooms 5-5 (BC) and 6-6 (ACD) remain in carriage number six.

Upon hearing Yoel's analysis, Xia Chuan unconsciously began to recall.

After a long while, Xia Chuan opened his eyes.

"How's it going? Do you know which room he's in?"

Xia Chuan frowned and shook his head. "Impossible. There's absolutely no possibility of that happening in these rooms."

"why?"

“Vodka will definitely investigate the rooms next door, especially Hondo Eisuke; he should be able to find something.”

If I were Karasuma Renya's person, I wouldn't choose this room either.

Room C is next to Shuichi Akai's room. If that's the case, Shuichi Akai would have been exposed long ago, and Tooru Amuro wouldn't have needed to question the FBI agents.
