The Daily Life of a Salted Fish Assassin in Anime Crossovers

He had to get the information from the distillery and eliminate all clues before he could go to that bar to find out what was going on!

Chapter 142: It's all your fault that I couldn't see the ending of Detective Conan before I transmigrated.

After Hideaki Nakajima confessed everything, the police investigators quickly found that the briefcase taken from Nakajima's identification number was filled with Japanese yen, initially estimated to be over ten million yen.

According to Hideaki Nakajima, these were the rewards he received after completing the tasks assigned by that organization.

However, Hideaki Nakajima's explanation did not clear him of suspicion at all; on the contrary, the possibility that he wanted to kill and rob someone for such a large sum of money increased significantly.

Inspector Megure was not going to believe his story so easily and immediately prepared to take him back to the Metropolitan Police Department for further interrogation.

Just then, Jiang Hang, who was in a hurry to search for information about the bar, leaned close to Inspector Megure's ear.

“Inspector Megure, I think Hideaki Nakajima’s briefcase may have been switched. I think that man with the three-quarter length haircut and glasses is very suspicious. You can check his briefcase; you might find something.”

After learning that Hideaki Nakajima's briefcase contained information about a deal with the brewery, Jiang Hang, who felt that this guy definitely didn't have the guts to confront the brewery head-on, tried scanning the storage counter with his Eagle Vision and indeed found quite a few clues.

Normally, Jiang Hang would gently remind Inspector Megure, but he couldn't care less about that now.

In addition, he reminded Inspector Megure to be careful to protect Hideaki Nakajima and not to mention his name in this case.

Jiang Hang carefully avoided cameras throughout his journey to avoid being filmed.

He was standing quietly behind Inspector Megure, using his Presence Concealment skill. To ordinary people, he was just a nobody with little presence, and they wouldn't pay much attention to him.

Aside from Inspector Megure and his subordinates, only Conan and Ran Mouri, who had just met him, knew he was here, and naturally, they wouldn't spread the word.

When it comes to matters involving the winery, Jiang Hang is more cautious than one might imagine.

Tequila was a well-known figure in the distillery. Although he was blown to pieces, the distillery would definitely investigate once they found out about it. Hideaki Nakajima, who caused the explosion, would certainly be the distillery's target.

And this detective who solves cases might even come into the distillery's sights.

Jiang Hang had absolutely no desire to play guessing games with the distillery, like "Who's the mole?", "Who's the rum?", or "Who's the boss?"

This kind of trouble is best left to Conan.

Jiang Hang's plan was simple: to develop his character stealthily.

Once he's developed, he'll first take down Gin, the most diligent employee at the distillery, and then gather together those undercover agents who've been fighting amongst themselves for ages but refuse to sit down and properly exchange information.

Do you know who Rum is? Then tell me quickly, and I'll go and bring Rum to you right now.

Do you know the distillery's ultimate goal? Okay, I'll go sabotage their plans after I catch Rum.

Wait, you say you know who the boss of the Black Organization is? ...WDNMD, when you guys talk about the Black Organization, you all act like you have a deep-seated hatred for them, but you just won't sit down and properly communicate and exchange information. I've been waiting since elementary school until now, and I still haven't seen the ending of Detective Conan.

Jiang Hang hopes to develop to that level, and then he won't care about the unspeakable secrets between the intelligence organizations of various countries. Once he finds out where the winery's headquarters and BOSS are, he'll just run over and wipe out the winery in one fell swoop, and then everyone can call it a day.

Of course, it's too early to talk about that now. For now, Jiang Hang can only continue to develop his skills secretly and cause some trouble for the winery.

After speaking with Inspector Megure, he left the Beika Hotel and headed towards the bar.

Watching Jiang Hang leave with such a dashing air, Inspector Megure couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

Brother Jiang Hang is truly a detective who is indifferent to fame and fortune, keeps a low profile, and possesses noble sentiments.

It would be wonderful if the other detectives could be like Brother Jiang Hang.

Inspector Megure couldn't help but glance at Kogoro Mouri, who looked completely drunk, not far away.

Although Kogoro Mouri has helped him a lot recently, Jiang Hang's style of preventing cases from happening in the first place and leaving room for the police in various aspects is more likely to win people's favor.

Furthermore, it seems that whenever Kogoro Mouri and Jiang Hang are both present, Jiang Hang always solves the case first, which suggests that there is probably a significant difference in skill between the two detectives.

Turning his attention back to the man with glasses and a parted hairstyle named Takeshita Hironobu, as Jiang Hang had instructed, began investigating him.

When they opened the briefcase with the number tag in Takeshita Hironobu's hand, they found the intelligence documents that Nakajima Hideaki had mentioned.

Under Hideaki Nakajima's incredulous gaze, Takeshita Hironobu, knowing he could no longer escape legal punishment, began to berate Nakajima.

Just by listening to the words Hironobu Takeshita uttered, one could discern his motive for murder.

Hideaki Nakajima dumped a girlfriend many years ago, and shortly after that, the woman committed suicide. Takeshita Hironobu, who was her childhood friend, has had a crush on Hideaki Nakajima ever since.

At this point, everything becomes completely clear.

Hironobu Takeshita, who still harbors murderous intent towards Hideaki Nakajima after many years because he believes Nakajima killed his childhood sweetheart, originally wanted to kill Nakajima by blowing him up. To this end, he even made a threatening letter and disguised himself as a terrorist.

Unexpectedly, after he and Hideaki Nakajima secretly switched the number plates, Hideaki Nakajima actually handed the number plate over to someone else, resulting in Hideaki Nakajima not dying, but a member of an unknown organization dying instead.

Amidst a chorus of curses, the police arrested Takeshita Hironobu.

Meanwhile, Hideaki Nakajima, who was making underground deals with a mysterious organization, also had to go to the Metropolitan Police Department to be interrogated by the police. It was anyone's guess what kind of methods the mysterious organization he was dealing with would use against him.

At least Inspector Megure could detect the caution in Jiang Hang's tone when he asked him to protect Hideaki Nakajima.

Now, Jiang Hang has arrived at the building that Hideaki Nakajima mentioned.

The Big Black Building—it sounds like this building has a significant connection to the Black Organization.

From the time the explosion at the Mihana Hotel to Jiang Hang rushing over to solve the case and then driving to this building, only 40 minutes had passed. However, when he took the elevator to the top floor and used his Eagle Vision to investigate the bar called "Cocktail," he was immediately shocked by the weapons and explosives hidden inside!

Is this the distillery's armory?!

Chapter 143: Chapter 142: A Real Man Never Looks Back at an Explosion

Before arriving at this place, Jiang Hang knew he was about to clash with Gin again, so after driving to an underground parking lot nearby, he changed his clothes in the car and disguised himself.

In order to disgust Gin, Jiang Hang specially dressed up as vodka this time.

Jiang Hang had actually considered disguising himself as Gin, but Gin's flowing silver hair was indeed difficult to disguise, and if they really started fighting, that silver hair would easily obstruct his vision.

Jiang Hang felt he had arrived quickly enough, but when he got to the cocktail bar, it was already deserted.

There was no one in the entire bar. From Jiang Hang's eagle-eye perspective, apart from a row of guns that hadn't been taken away and were hidden behind the bar counter, the most conspicuous thing was the bombs that were placed in various places in the hotel and were about to be detonated!

The bombs in this bar are way more powerful than the one at the Miho Hotel.

The Mihana Hotel incident only blasted a two-meter-high hole in the bathroom, but this massive thing will completely destroy everything left behind in the entire bar!

Jiang Hang confirmed through his eagle-eye view that the bomb would explode in a little over a minute, while his inner eye also warned him of the impending danger.

He cursed inwardly that he was still too late.

With the recent incident at the tequila bar, it's likely that the distillery staff at this bar are already planning to evacuate and completely destroy the bar.

From this perspective, the distillery learned of the tequila's demise immediately.

It's likely that besides Tequila, other members of the distillery were also present at the Mihana Hotel, and they immediately notified the bar after discovering Tequila's death.

The bar was clearly prepared for this situation; they took everything they could carry, and left the rest to be destroyed by a time bomb.

Even though the police eventually found the remains of the guns in the rubble, they couldn't find the distillery on the premises.

According to the clues revealed by the Eagle Eye device, the last person to leave the bar had only been gone for about five or six minutes. That is, roughly the time it took him to disguise himself and walk out of the underground parking lot.

Jiang Hang was slightly disappointed at missing out on the opportunity with the winery, but at the same time he was also relieved.

The distillery probably never imagined that they would leave the bar in the last five minutes before the final explosives were detonated, and that one of their enemies would come to the bar to search for clues in the last minute.

Knowing that time was of the essence, Jiang Hang's revelations were almost never interrupted.

His gaze swept across the entire bar.

In these last few dozen seconds, he wanted to collect as many valuable items as possible that the winery hadn't taken away!

The distillery would naturally not easily leave behind paper documents or other easily portable items. Even if they did leave behind some documents, they would certainly be things they considered unimportant to the organization.

However, this bar also hides many secrets. The most common ones are the fingerprints left by the winery staff when they came here, as well as the cigarette butts and naturally fallen hairs carelessly thrown into the trash cans.

As long as Jiang Hang finds someone he can trust or a research institute to analyze these seemingly insignificant things, they could probably tell him a lot of information about the members of the winery and those who come here to do business with the winery.

These clues might be important later, but for now, he needs to get more valuable items as quickly as possible, so he can only collect these things as they come along.

In addition, the distillery also left behind large electronic devices such as computers and fax machines, which were inconvenient to take with them.

If there were enough time, Jiang Hang would definitely take it for a thorough investigation.

However, unless the people at the brewery are stupid, they will definitely delete all the files inside, and perhaps even destroy the hard drive.

He doesn't have enough time to check these electronic devices for problems, so he has to abandon them.

It took Jiang Hang more than half a minute to carefully scan the entire bar!

Jiang Hang's forehead was also slightly sweaty.

It wasn't just because of nervousness, but more so because maintaining Hawkeye's gaze for nearly tens of seconds was a huge strain on his eyes and brain.

This was the result of more than a month of training by following the system's daily check-in tasks. If it were when he first transmigrated, he could only maintain Eagle Eye for a maximum of ten seconds.

After looking through all the glittering clues in the bar, Jiang Hang finally chose a magazine that was thrown on the bar counter, and then an inconspicuous trash can next to it. Inside the trash can were several cigarette butts that had been smoked, and a business card that had been crumpled up by someone.

This may not be the best option, but with only half a minute, it was the limit of what he could do.

After doing all this, I felt the sense of crisis in my heart growing stronger and stronger, and the time bomb only had ten seconds left!

Without any hesitation, Jiang Hang turned off his Eagle Vision app, endured the stinging pain in his eyes, and fled the bar as quickly as possible.

He had only run seven or eight meters from the bar when a deafening explosion came from behind him!

Boom! !——

The shockwave from the explosion rushed over, and Jiang Hang felt a tremendous impact on his back. He immediately lost his balance and was thrown to the ground by the force.

However, he had faced similar situations hundreds of times in the training space, and with the help of his own fighting skills and mental acuity, he tried his best to land on the ground in a smooth manner.

After rolling around on the ground a few times, Jiang Hang stood up, but his disguise as "vodka" looked rather disheveled.

He doesn't look very well right now.

He had dodged the impact of the explosion, but he felt that his back must have been injured by the debris that had been thrown out.

Fortunately, Vodka himself has a relatively strong physique. In order to better imitate his opponent, Jiang Hang added an extra layer of padding behind him to simulate the opponent's body shape, which helped him block a lot of damage just now.

He has only suffered a minor injury; without this padding, his back would probably be a bloody mess by now.

Fortunately, I didn't pretend to be Gin.

Jiang Hang muttered this to himself, without turning around to look at the explosion.

Before anyone noticed, he slipped into the emergency exit and fled the building down the stairs as fast as he could.
