Daily Spy Life in the Detective Conan World

Chapter 440 Hostage Conan
So, if she joins the brewery, does that mean she can learn more about its operations and then secretly disguise herself as the Thorn Princess to stop it?
Perhaps, she might even get access to APTX4869. Although Ai Haibara's research has made some progress, she is still very envious of the materials inside the brewery.

Gin was stunned when he saw Joel standing there dumbfounded.

Did the other party seem somewhat interested after I casually probed with my words?

Have the police lost all sense of decency these days?
You're a police officer with a cherry blossom badge on your back!
For a moment, Gin didn't know what to say, and just looked at Joel, wondering how he would respond.

Now it was Xia Chuan's turn to get restless.

If you're going to fight, why are you chatting?

Joel joining the brewery was something he never even dared to dream of.

He knew what kind of person Joel was. Even when the Thorn Princess accepted assassination missions, it was all to deal with bad people who couldn't be punished by law. How could she possibly genuinely join the winery?

If someone has such thoughts, then they must have ulterior motives.

Xia Chuan could probably guess that.

It's nothing more than becoming an undercover agent and stealing APTX4869's information, or secretly telling the police about certain missions.

For other undercover agents, this approach might have been more effective in concealing their activities, such as Amuro Tooru.

But she is Joel!

Putting aside the fact that people who are turned are inherently less trustworthy, there's also Joel's acting skills.
Since Yoh and Ai Haibara have been open with each other, Natsukawa has discovered their secrets no less than five times.

Therefore, if Joel becomes a codename member, he will probably be exposed within two days, and at that time, his identity as the Thorn Princess may also be exposed.

Furthermore, because Gin knows Joel's public identity, he might even harm Joel's family and friends.

Gin might discover something amiss, which could lead to his tequila persona being exposed.

The scene was too horrible for Xia Chuan to bear.

"You probably don't know how powerful our organization is, do you?"

Xia Chuan was afraid that Yoel would really agree to Gin, so he quickly said, "Do you know what happened in Tottori Prefecture? It was burned down to a bald mountain. The FBI, CIA and the police were also beaten to a pulp by us, with countless dead and injured."

In our eyes, there are no bad people or good people in the world, only people of value and people of no value.

In other words, in order to complete the mission, anyone will become our target.

In terms of strength, our organization only accepts elites or exceptional talents. While we might not be considered incredibly powerful in Japan's underworld, we're close enough.

"Ok!"

Gin nodded in satisfaction. It was good to have a straight man; he didn't have to waste his breath, and this brought out the boss's charisma.

"If you join us, with your abilities, you would be suitable to help us deal with some disobedient businessmen and politicians who know about our organization."

"Killing innocent people?"

Joel clenched her fists; the other party was preparing to use her as a weapon.

It's true that she wants to be an undercover agent, but she doesn't intend to kill innocent people indiscriminately, not even one, otherwise she would be going against her original intention.

"Although the job at the Metropolitan Police Department is stable, the income is average. If you don't work hard to earn money, you will always be a slave to those capitalists."

Gin, like the Big Bad Wolf tempting Little Red Riding Hood, spoke eloquently: "Since you can't change society, change yourself. Join us and you will experience what freedom and abundance are, and your quality of life will be significantly improved."

"."

Xia Chuan agreed with the first statement, but the second statement...
I disagree.

Xia Chuan shook his head inwardly. Gin's stinginess was unparalleled. Improving the quality of life? How could he even say that?

But it doesn't matter, his statement should be very clear: if Joel didn't want to kill innocent people, he definitely wouldn't have chosen to join the brewery.

Just as Xia Chuan had guessed, after Gin finished speaking, Joel glared at him impatiently, leaned forward, and threw a punch at Gin's face.

This was a sneak attack!

Gin quickly took two steps back and grabbed Joel's wrist.

"not good!"

The moment he grabbed her, Gin knew something was wrong.

He used both hands to grab, while Joel used only one hand, the other of which had already reached his abdomen.

He quickly let go and tried to jump back.

Time waits for no one; the fist was even faster, landing squarely on his abdomen. "Ouch—"

Gin flew backward, spitting saliva all over the ground, and almost couldn't get up.

I haven't even used my strength yet.

Joel pursed his lips. Gin, without firearms, didn't seem to pose that much of a threat.

She approached slowly, each step carrying immense pressure.

This is the aura of a strong person!

"Stop! Or I'll kill him!"

Vodka's forehead was covered in sweat, but he still stepped forward, carrying a child in his hand—Conan.

Beside him, Xia Chuan felt helpless.

Conan foolishly poked half his head out to shoot them with tranquilizer darts, but Vodka, angry because he lost a bet, shook his head and dodged the tranquilizer darts, and then Conan was discovered.

"Vodka!"

Gin, with sour saliva dripping from his lips, looked at vodka with a complicated expression.

This time, I've really lost face.

However, vodka's actions did help relieve his stress.

"You bastard, you even prey on children!"

Joel gritted his teeth, not knowing what to say. After fighting with Gin, he couldn't care less about anything else.

And Conan is clearly quite resourceful, so how did he fall for it this time?

Conan's face turned pale; he knew it was his fault.

But there's nothing we can do about it. Gin may seem like he's no match for Aunt Joel, but that's actually because Gin hasn't used his full strength.

Aunt Joel's specialty is hand-to-hand combat, but what should Joel do if Gin pulls out a gun?
He didn't know much about Joel's marksmanship, but he learned from Ai Haibara that Gin was a very skilled marksman and that he even knew some kind of gun-fu technique.

He didn't hear the last word, but he did hear about Gin's masterful use of guns.

That's why he aimed at the vodka.

Ultimately, it's all for Aunt Joel's own good.

"I've already given you time to consider it."

Finding that Joel was not responding, Gin glanced at Vodka.

Vodka smiled knowingly, pulled out a dagger, and held it to Conan's neck.

The tactical dagger was incredibly sharp; even a slight press caused beads of blood to seep out.

Conan didn't dare to move the entire time, his head slightly raised, looking into Vodka's eyes.

That's right, the eyes are the windows to the soul, and he intended to move Vodka.

Conan laughed at his own thoughts, but it seemed there was no other way...

Just when Conan was at his most helpless.

"Click."

"what sound?"

Vodka suddenly paused, the voice was very close to him, it seemed to be coming from the child.

Conan was stunned for a moment, then he realized what was happening!
He was all too familiar with that sound; it was the sound of a watch-shaped anesthetic needle opening its cover.

To prevent accidental activation, the watch-type tranquilizer gun can only be fired when the scope cover is open.

The lid wouldn't be opened for no reason.

It's agave!
