The world of science is unscientific

Osaka.

When Suzuki Yusuke saw Vermouth's email, his heart clenched at first, but then relaxed.

He had originally intended to ask Gin directly, but based on past experience, he knew Gin wouldn't tell him.

So he simply emailed Vermouth to subtly probe her, since he still didn't want to believe that this operation was aimed at Ai Haibara, given that the current storyline hadn't reached that point yet.

The Full Moon arc has already started before Itakura Takumi even went to look for him?

Not very reasonable.

But now it seems that Vermouth has at least confirmed Ai Haibara's identity and also figured out her thoughts.

The message Vermouth just sent was in French; it meant, 'Darling, I want you home now.'

It seems quite ambiguous, but the key issue lies in the word 'dear'.

'Cheri' is the source word for 'Sherry'.

With this one-to-one substitution, the meaning of the entire sentence is completely reversed.

You should know that he and Vermouth didn't have any ambiguous relationship, and that woman was a mysterious person.

Such a statement forced Suzuki Yusuke to think more deeply. Too lazy to continue the argument, he simply used Ran Mouri and Conan as threats.

Putting aside whether or not to take action, at least for now, Vermouth would definitely not dare to lay a hand on Ai Haibara, and that's enough.

The rain in Osaka Castle intensified, and the wind grew stronger. When Hattori Heiji and Conan saw Ran Mouri's umbrella being blown away, they rushed out like two lunatics.

Yusuke Suzuki quickly caught up. From now on, he was going to stick close to Conan, inseparable. Everything else would wait until they returned to Tokyo and he was sure Ai Haibara was by his side.

......

"No," Hattori Heiji stopped Conan, who was about to call the police. "If the police come, it will only alert the culprit, and they will have a chance to escape. It's better for the two of us to open the door to the truth."

"The two of us... wait, where's Yusuke-nii?"

"I am here."

Yusuke Suzuki came over with an umbrella and flicked each of them on the head. "If you two ever leave me behind and run off without saying a word again, I'll beat you up with my fists, with all my might!"

Chapter 184 Conversation with Vermouth

"I...I understand. Anyway, let's hurry up and catch up with that person."

Heiji Hattori, agile and quick, took the lead, and Conan was not to be outdone. However, Yusuke Suzuki seemed to sense something and looked towards a small alley across the street.

Are you all going to die?!

Yusuke Suzuki cursed under his breath, when he suddenly saw seven or eight small black figures with glowing red eyes, huddled in the alley, watching him menacingly.

Are these guys cosplaying as the Shadow Legion?

When he turned back, Blackie and Conan had already run far away, so he had no choice but to follow them, too lazy to pay any more attention to the group of little blacks here.

Their current target is the fat old man in the tour group. He walked all the way to an abandoned factory, opened the door, and went inside.

The old man even folded his umbrella before going in. So elegant, so very elegant. Suzuki Yusuke decided to give him two extra big pockets later.

"Hattori, don't you feel like someone's been watching us all along?"

Conan and Kuroko walked out of the alley and looked back with some worry, but Suzuki Yusuke and Kuroko had already run to the factory gate.

"Just wait for me."

Xiao Ke took off with his short legs to catch up.

"It was pitch black and you couldn't see anything."

Hattori Heiji, standing ahead, suddenly gestured for silence, "He's over there."

"He seems to want to go up there."

"Conan, get your tranquilizer gun ready."

Conan looked up at Yusuke Suzuki. "Isn't that unnecessary?"

"Just in case, we might need it at any time."

Suddenly, a black hand reached out from behind to cover Suzuki Yusuke's mouth. Just as he was about to resist, he heard Hattori Heizo's voice in his ear.

"take it easy."

Heiji Hattori, who had already walked ahead, noticed that his two friends hadn't followed and hadn't even bothered to come and check on him.

"Yusuke, Conan, what are you doing? Did you go to the bathroom?"

"Remember to come over quickly after you two finish peeing."

Yusuke Suzuki: "..."

God the hell go to the toilet.

He himself is alright, but if it were just Conan who came, and it were a real robber, they would probably have packed Conan up and ready to ship him by now.

Why is Blackie so agitated today? Did his dad really get angry after punching him?

Once Hattori Heiji had gone some distance, Suzuki Yusuke and Conan were freed. The officers who arrived were all SWAT officers wearing riot shields, with Hattori Heizo leading the way and Toyama Ginjiro providing support.

Judging from their appearance, they probably figured out the truth earlier than the two famous detectives, but they've just been fishing for information.

As a result, Suzuki Yusuke and Conan were both criticized, with the Osaka Prefectural Police Chief personally reprimanding them—a treatment Gin didn't even receive when he was arrested.

For some reason, Hattori Heizo always only opened one eye, which inexplicably reminded Suzuki Yusuke of rum.

After teaching them a lesson, the police took action and quietly surrounded two of the three members of the tour group, who were still arguing with Hattori Heiji.

This time, the idea of ​​giving that old man three big slaps is also going to fail. In this situation, how could he possibly commit violence on the spot?

Oh well, beating up Conan later is the same thing.

He had just called Takagi Wataru to confirm that Ai Haibara and Professor Agasa were both under his watchful eye and safe.

Five minutes later, Hattori Heizo descended from the sky, and the SWAT team immediately surrounded the old man and his gang.

From Yusuke Suzuki's perspective, this case started off a bit anticlimactic, but thankfully it's finally over.

The next morning, Suzuki Yusuke bid farewell to Hattori Heizo, saying that he had important business to attend to in Tokyo.

After Blackie took them to the station, he learned what had happened and realized that he had been used as a pawn by his own father. He was so angry that he vowed that if it happened again, he would stick his finger into his father's ear and give him a good scolding.

This wave can be described as 'filial piety between father and son'.

Upon arriving in Tokyo, Yusuke Suzuki went straight to Wataru Takagi. After seeing Ai Haibara and Professor Agasa, his anxiety finally subsided.

Ai Haibara didn't tell Professor Agasa what had happened, so Yusuke Suzuki made up another reason on the spot to fool the old man.

After much deliberation, he finally made a call to Vermouth.

"You're finally back, darling."

The tone on the phone was relaxed, with no hint of anything superfluous, so Suzuki Yusuke simply got straight to the point.

"Speak, what exactly do you want?"

“I never expected that two people I really wanted to kill would have gotten together so early. Wei Que, what do you think I should do?”

“There’s no need for us to come to this. You only hate her parents, don’t you? Taking on that kind of research wasn’t her intention. As someone in the organization, you should know that very well.”

Vermouth fell silent on the other end of the phone. How did Wijaya know about this?

However, Yusuke Suzuki clearly had no intention of stopping.

“You’re protecting Shinichi Kudo, and I’m protecting Shiho Miyano. They’re classmates now and have a good relationship. Even as parents, we shouldn’t have any conflict, right?”

Vermouth gritted her teeth, then sneered, "Let's see if you can protect her. This is a showdown between us. Also, here's a piece of information for you: Gin's target is the FBI."

After saying that, the phone hung up.

It seems that although Vermouth discovered Ai Haibara earlier than in the original storyline, she still did not reveal Sherry's identity.

Is it because of his threat to Conan, or because this woman possesses a fraction more humanity than Gin?

Or perhaps it was because Vermouth felt he could ensure Sherry wasn't brought back to the organization alive?

Yusuke Suzuki couldn't understand why this woman, described as the evil side of Fujiko Mine in Aoyama's writing, wasn't thoroughly evil enough in her various actions.

However, since the current operation has nothing to do with Ai Haibara, there's no need to think about it for now; the operation against the FBI is imminent.

After much deliberation, Suzuki Yusuke brought Ai Haibara to Shimabukuro Kimie.

Then, disguised, he went to the location Gin had instructed him to visit.

......

"Gin, what exactly is the purpose of this operation?"

The meeting place was in Shibuya Ward, where the night had already fallen.

There were still only Gin and Vodka here, but it was obvious that it was impossible for only the three of them to have come.

“Shuichi Akai of the FBI, a traitor to the organization,” Gin said with a rare sneer, tossing away his cigarette before finishing it. “I can already see him die.”

Yusuke Suzuki: "..."

Since you've said that, then Shuichi Akai must have run away again this time.

After venting his frustrations, he was about to ask about the specific plans when another car stopped nearby.

The car door opened, and a blonde woman in a blood-red leather jacket stepped out, her slender figure resembling a beautiful serpent.

Reiko Shimizu!?

Chapter 185 The Hunt Begins

"Gin, is this my boss whom I've never met?"

Shimizu Reiko smiled faintly, but her eyes were filled with excitement. She reached for her waist with her left hand and fired a shot at Suzuki Yusuke.

Why is this woman getting crazier and crazier?

Yusuke Suzuki tilted his head slightly, and the bullet flew past his ear.

“Stop messing around, Mary,” Gin interrupted, “Go to location number 3.”
