Ran was filled with admiration and amazement, while Conan was envious.

Damn it, he can deduce things faster than me!

The female employee... right, it was the lipstick mark left inside that wig!

But how did he get in touch with that Masami Hirota? Damn it!

There must be some clues I haven't noticed!

Kogoro leaned back in his chair, looking somewhat listless: "But the officer didn't catch anyone. Hirota Masami resigned and ran away today, probably anticipating being exposed. I guess they'll issue a warrant for her arrest later. What a pity, she was really a beauty..."

Xiao Lan said angrily, "Dad!"

Conan frowned, sensing that something was wrong.

The other party's behavior was unreasonable!

Why would someone leave their lipstick at a murder scene? Who would be that stupid?

Unless someone deliberately exposed it!

Thinking of this, he immediately jumped off the chair and rushed out of the office.

Ran asked worriedly, "Conan! Where are you going?"

Kogoro Mouri didn't even glance at it, muttering, "Don't worry about it, don't worry about it, that kid's clever enough."

Naoto Hayashi stood up and said, "I think I'll go and take a look."

Xiao Lan said gratefully, "Brother Zhiren, thank you for your hard work."

When Naoto Hayashi arrived downstairs, he was speechless to see Conan preparing to step onto the solar-powered skateboard.

Patting his car, Naoto Hayashi said, "Get in!"

Conan: "..."

Okay, you win.

The two got into the car, and Naoto Hayashi asked, "Where are we going?"

Conan took out his voice changer and started calling Inspector Megure. He then imitated Kogoro Mouri's voice to ask the police for Masami Hirota's address.

"Hirota Masami's residence... Do you suspect she's hiding some clues at home?" Naoto Hayashi asked as he drove.

“That’s right.” Conan nodded. “There’s probably a mastermind behind this case. They want to silence all the robbers in the open and then keep the 1 billion yen for themselves! So, Ms. Hirota Masami might be in danger!”

The two quickly arrived at the location, but a red sedan passed by them. Naoto Hayashi caught a glimpse of the driver in the car, who turned out to be their target, Masami Hirota!

Naoto and Conan exchanged a glance, then immediately turned the car around and followed behind.

The red sedan drove on and finally arrived at the pier area.

There is a large area of ​​abandoned warehouses here, and no one ever comes here normally.

Naoto Hayashi didn't dare to follow directly in. He parked the car some distance away and said to Conan, "The warehouse area is too big. Let's split up and search. Be careful."

Conan didn't doubt it, nodded, and rushed out, full of recklessness.

Naoto Hayashi shook his head.

He estimated that they would encounter members of the Black Organization this time. If Conan rushed in rashly, he would definitely be sent to his death. It would be better to let him wander around the warehouse area for a while.

With the "legendary" knight's armor protecting him, he could test the strength of the Black Organization.

Thinking of this, he gently raised his right hand, and immediately more than a dozen golden bees buzzed up and flew up, quickly searching the surrounding area.

Soon, Naoto Hayashi's eyes lit up.

found it!

Chapter 52 The Terrifying Man in Black

Golden bees fly in the air.

Below is an empty, dilapidated warehouse with several large holes in the roof.

And standing among them was Masami Hirota, facing two members of the organization dressed entirely in black: Gin and Vodka!

Several little bees quietly landed and observed closely.

The two members of the black-clad organization exuded a chilling and murderous aura, while Masami Hirota remained unfazed.

Gin sneered and said, "Hirota Masami... no, Miyano Akemi, where's your one billion yen? Did you bring it?"

Miyano Akemi, using the alias Hirota Masami, coldly replied, "Of course I brought her. Where's my sister? Since this is a transaction, it's a cash-on-delivery deal! Or are you planning to break the contract?"

Vodka hesitated for a moment, then looked at Gin: "Big brother?"

Gin continued to sneer: "You just hid the money in the rental safe, and the key is on you. Do you think we don't know?"

Akemi Miyano's expression changed: "You're following me?"

Vodka laughed and said, "Not only did you follow me, but you also killed the two accomplices you hired. Furthermore, you threw your favorite lipstick at the crime scene. So, you're now a nationally wanted robber and murderer!"

“No wonder, I didn’t leave any evidence…” Miyano Akemi murmured, then suddenly pulled out a pistol and pointed it at Gin: “So, you guys didn’t come here to make a deal at all, but to silence me, right?”

Gin also drew his pistol and said casually, "Since you know..."

Miyano Akemi shot decisively!

boom!

The bullet grazed Gin's cheek, but Gin merely tilted his head slightly, as if he had already seen through the bullet's trajectory.

He then pulled the trigger as well.

boom!

Akemi Miyano was shot in the chest and collapsed, powerless.

Vodka immediately stepped forward and searched her, quickly finding the safe key in her pocket.

Just as the two were about to turn and leave, Gin suddenly raised his pistol and aimed at a dark corner in the warehouse.

"Who?! Show yourself!"

Vodka quickly drew his pistol as well.

Clang, clang, clang!

The sound of heavy metal striking the ground rang out, and a person clad in silver metal armor emerged from the darkness.

It was a set of medieval antique armor, covering the entire body, even protecting the wearer's eyes.

The armored knight's weapon was simply a longsword!

Vodka was startled, but then sneered, "What kind of fool is this! Trying to use something like this to block a bullet?"

Without saying a word, he raised his hand and fired a shot.

boom!

The bullet struck the armored knight in the chest, exploding in a flash.

But the bloodstains on the armor surface began to flow strangely.

Gin's expression suddenly changed, and he reached out and grabbed Vodka's shoulder, pulling him aside!

The bullet that struck the armor strangely bounced back and grazed Vodka's shoulder before flying away.

Gin narrowed his eyes slightly, his killing intent radiating as he said, "Interesting..."

Vodka was sweating profusely.

The knight in armor didn't speak, but silently took a step forward.

Gin fired four shots in quick succession, bursting out bursts of flame from the muzzle of his gun!

The bullets bounced off the armor and towards Gin, but Gin miraculously slid his feet and avoided all the bullets!

Gin wore a sickly smile and pulled the trigger repeatedly. The bullets shot out and bounced off, but he easily dodged them!

Suddenly he stopped firing and sneered, "Strange armor, but the bullet ricochet is weakened... Are you part of that alliance of assassins? You're sabotaging our mission, trying to start a war?"

Lin Zhiren paused slightly beneath the knight's armor.

He originally just wanted to test Gin and the others' strength, but he didn't expect to hear such a sentence.

An alliance made up of all killers?

Does Gin understand the other party?

Moreover, the armor that could deflect bullets didn't even scare him; no wonder he's a top-ranking official at the distillery!

However, Gin took Naoto Hayashi's silence as tacit agreement.

His face darkened, and he lightly tapped the communicator hidden in his ear, coldly saying, "Make your move!"

Boom!

A sniper bullet fired from hundreds of meters away struck Lin Zhiren's knight armor!

Then came the dull gunfire, albeit belatedly.

Lin Zhiren was jolted backward, the immense impact sending a shiver through his body, and the gunshot wound in his chest caused excruciating pain.

This "legendary" knight's armor is indeed invincible in defense, even sniper bullets cannot penetrate it, but his physical strength is limited!

After all, this armor isn't made of vibranium, so it can't absorb impact.

In particular, these specially made high-powered sniper bullets are far more powerful than ordinary pistol bullets.

bang bang bang!

Lin Zhiren took a few steps back and was about to straighten up when a loud bang rang out, and sniper bullets were fired again from another direction!

Clang!

The knight's armor fell to the ground.

Lin Zhiren inside felt dizzy and lightheaded, as if his spiritual energy was being severely depleted.

There were two snipers?!

Isn't Gin being a little too cautious?

Why is such powerful firepower being deployed just to deal with a mere Miyano Akemi?

Were they guarding against someone else? I just happened to run into them?

All sorts of random thoughts popped into Lin Zhiren's mind. Gin once again pulled out his gun and fired wildly. Bullets flew everywhere, but he strolled leisurely through the hail of bullets, easily dodging the ricocheting bullets.

Lin Zhiren, bracing himself in his armor, rolled on the ground and hid in a dark corner. He then suddenly switched soul forms and burst through the wall.

Gin chased him to the corner, only to find that there was nothing there anymore.

He swept his gaze across the room with a cold look, making sure the other party had escaped, before letting out a cold snort and turning to stride away.

"retreat!"

The intense gunfight that had just broken out had already attracted the attention of others, and the faint sound of police sirens could be heard in the distance.

The two got back into the black Porsche, started the car, and drove away from the battlefield.

In the car, Gin turned on his communicator and said coldly, "Chianti, Cohen, report the situation."

A woman's voice came through the communicator, still shaken: "Damn it! How could the bullet bounce back?! It almost hit me! My gun is damaged!"

Another somewhat muffled male voice said, "I'm fine. I rolled away after the shot was fired, and the ricochet missed."

Gin lit a cigarette, squinted, and said, "There's a loose alliance of assassins internationally, known as the 'Assassin's Guild.' I've heard they have some special technology that allows them to do unbelievable things."

"Hmph, I'm afraid this time's rebound bullets are one of them. But it's nothing. Their speed and power have been weakened. As long as you're careful, you can dodge them. Even if you get hit, it won't be fatal."

Vodka, who got a scratch: "..." Brother, I've embarrassed you.

The woman on the communicator exclaimed in surprise, "There are such people? Have we provoked a formidable enemy?"

Gin snorted and said, "Their sphere of influence is in Europe and America, and they have had friction with us before... Hmph, I will report this to that lord and ask him to negotiate with them."

A hint of seriousness appeared on his face: "This operation to eliminate Miyano Akemi was supposed to lure out the big fish, Akai Shuichi, but instead of the big fish, we encountered a crocodile instead..."

Vodka, who was driving, hesitated and said, "Brother, the Assassin's Guild members are killers. Could it be that Shuichi Akai hired them?"

A cold glint flashed in Gin's eyes as he fell into deep thought.
