I'm in Detective Conan, but it's a chaotic battlefield.

Does being associated with "vodka" make people stupid?

Gin glanced subconsciously at the vodka beside him.

Vodka, holding up his binoculars, observed carefully: "Brother, that kid Chen Nuo killed two of Miyano Akemi's accomplices first, but he didn't use a gun. Could it be a trap?"

"I told him that using a gun at this time would likely attract the cops." Gin's gaze fell on the computer screen, pondering the meaning of the text the other party had sent.

Vodka gave an "oh" and continued to observe the scene.

Vodka: "Brother, Chen Nuo didn't kill Miyano Akemi directly, but was talking to her."

Gin: "It's normal. When someone does something wrong, they always try to explain themselves. Record the time it takes for them to explain. If it takes too long, it proves that they are indecisive at heart and not capable of being of great use."

Vodka glanced at the digital clock on the dashboard, then picked up the binoculars again.

Vodka: "Big brother, Miyano Akemi slapped Chen Nuo."

Gin: "It's normal. People sometimes burst out with unexpected courage when they are in despair."

Gin looked up the words he wanted in a Russian dictionary because he couldn't use phrases like "I want to buy a bomb" or "the police have terminated the transaction" on this platform, as it might lead to clues being discovered.

So they usually communicate using code words like "Uncle George's potatoes are planted on trees".

For Gin, this means adding another step to the process.

Vodka: "Big brother, that kid Chen Nuo..."

"What is it now?" Gin asked impatiently.

Vodka: "He started taking off Akemi Miyano's clothes."

“Normal… um?” Gin put down his Russian dictionary. “Give me the binoculars.”

Chapter 37: I found a bottle of sherry, but the packaging was torn. (Please subscribe!)

Gin frowned and snatched the binoculars from Vodka's hand.

Then he saw Chen Nuo pin Miyano Akemi against the van door, roughly tearing at her clothes, burying his face in her chest and neck, and biting her haphazardly.

Gin sneered, "What a fool. It seems I had too high expectations of him."

Vodka: "Indeed."

Although Gin was somewhat dissatisfied with Chen Nuo's performance, logically speaking, his behavior was not incomprehensible.

Chen Nuo has been drinking heavily and gambling excessively these past few days, so you can tell he's under a lot of pressure.

This is normal. Even Gin himself wasn't born a ruthless killer; it takes time for him to develop his skills.

In this situation, it's understandable that Chen Nuo, after being provoked by Miyano Akemi, would lose control of his emotions out of shame and want to retaliate.

However, this kind of performance would lower Gin's rating considerably.

People who cannot remain rational cannot be entrusted with important tasks, and therefore cannot become core members.

Gin put down his binoculars, intending to continue discussing the deal with the group.

At this moment, Vodka, who had taken out a small monocular telescope to observe, suddenly exclaimed in surprise.

"Hey? Big brother, they're fighting."

Upon hearing this, Gin had no choice but to pick up his binoculars again and look over.

Then he saw that Miyano Akemi had picked up the knife that Chen Nuo had dropped at his feet at some point.

She started slashing wildly at Chen Nuo, seemingly cutting his arm.

Enraged, Chen Nuo snatched the weapon and began to stab Miyano Akemi repeatedly. His attacks were haphazard and reckless, but quite ruthless.

Soon, Akemi Miyano leaned against the car door, her eyes fixed on the sunset outside the warehouse, gradually losing their luster.

Chen Nuo stood motionless in front of Miyano Akemi, blood dripping from the tip of the knife in his hand onto the ground.

"Big brother, that kid's out of control, what do we do?" Vodka's voice held a hint of schadenfreude. "Won't this affect the rest of the plan?"

After witnessing the entire process, Gin closed his laptop and said, "Let's go clean up this mess first, and put the money in the car while we're at it."

Vodka nodded, then started the car and drove towards Chen Nuo.

When the van stopped in front of the abandoned warehouse, the warehouse door was already closed, and the green-painted door had a sign in white that read "No Trespassing."

Gin jumped out of the car and slowly pushed open the door.

As the setting sun pierced through the crack in the door, a strong smell of blood and chemicals wafted out of the warehouse.

Chen Nuo may have already started cleaning up the battlefield.

Seeing this, Gin's opinion of Chen Nuo improved slightly.

Upon entering the warehouse, Gin saw the van parked in the center.

The bag of money had been unloaded from the car, and a fair leg wearing high heels emerged from the trunk.

It seems that Chen Nuo has already disposed of the body as instructed.

Because leaving the body here might allow the police to continue investigating the mastermind behind it, it's better to make the people involved in this case disappear into thin air.

Making the Metropolitan Police Department believe that the criminals have taken the money and gone into hiding, and focusing the investigation on people who are already dead, is what is most beneficial to the organization.

Gin was surprised that Chen Nuo could quickly recover from his out-of-control emotions and continue to carry out the plan. It seems that this guy does have some merit.

What pleased Gin the most was—

At that moment, the dark muzzle of a gun was locked onto his temple.

Chen Nuo was standing to the side of the door, holding a gun, wary of the unexpected visitor.

Chen Nuo's face was expressionless, seemingly having recovered from the earlier blow. Even upon seeing Gin, his expression didn't change much.

"You've worked hard." Gin patted Chen Nuo on the shoulder, a rare occurrence for him.

Chen Nuo lowered his gun and remained silent.

Vodka stood behind Gin, his face looking rather grim.

Because his older brother hadn't said such encouraging words to him in a long time, now Gin's most frequent comment to him was "You stupid guy."

Vodka suddenly felt a pang of jealousy towards Chen Nuo.

Gin wasted no time and went straight to the van to check the state of death of the body; he still had to make a deal with those people later.

Chen Nuo followed closely behind, feeling a little nervous.

Because this was the only part of his plan that involved a bit of luck.

In the trunk of the van, three bodies were piled up together. Akemi Miyano lay on the outermost side, her light yellow suit stained red with blood.

Chen Nuo arranged it this way to make it easier for Gin to observe.

Vodka pulled out his pistol and aimed it at Akemi Miyano's head, but before he could pull the trigger, Gin grabbed the muzzle.

"Are you out of your mind? What if you open fire and attract the police?" Gin said, looking displeased.

Vodka reluctantly put away his pistol.

Chen Nuo breathed a sigh of relief, but not entirely, because there was still a hurdle to overcome.

As expected, Gin took the initiative to step forward and check Miyano Akemi's state of death.

If Gin chooses to finish off the enemy using physical methods at this point, Chen Nuo's plan will have completely failed.

However, Chen Nuo certainly couldn't rely entirely on luck; he also made many preparations and planted reasonable psychological suggestions in Gin.

Gin stood in front of the corpse, not touching Miyano Akemi's body for a long time.

Because Miyano Akemi was covered in blood, some from her two accomplices, some from her own blood, and some from Chen Nuo's.

If you do it, you might get the smell of blood on your hands.

There is a risk of being discovered when we transport the weapons later.

However, Gin, who had killed countless people, immediately realized that Miyano Akemi was in a dying state.

So he stood there for about 5 minutes.

Only when Miyano Akemi's condition reached the point where she was beyond saving unless a state-of-the-art emergency center was immediately established in the abandoned warehouse did people shift their attention away from her.

"Load all the money into the truck outside," Gin ordered.

Vodka then opened the warehouse door.

Together with Chen Nuo, they moved the bags of money into the van outside.

Chen Nuo's movements were unhurried, even bordering on passive. This dispelled Gin's last remaining doubts about him.

Gin walked over and said, "Take a break for a while. A sum of money will be deposited into your account in the next couple of days. You can use it to relax."

Chen Nuo nodded, looking at Gin with gratitude.

At this point, Chen Nuo's rescue plan was more than half successful.

After racking his brains that night, he thought of the magical blood in his body that could keep people alive, which might be the key to breaking the deadlock.

Of course, it has to be used cleverly so that Gin doesn't notice.

That's why Chen Nuo acted for a few days, planting the seed of emotional instability in Gin's heart.

Then, by abusing Akemi Miyano, this psychological suggestion is reinforced.

This makes his final act of frantically digging holes with a knife seem reasonable—in fact, Chen Nuo almost avoided all the vital points.

Tetsuya Chiko's help was also a very important asset in this plan.

She used her connections to get the congressman to visit the port at this time, causing Gin and Vodka to hesitate to act.

They also used the pretext of donating equipment to the kendo dojo to secretly transport some medical devices and medicines to Chen Nuo's dojo.

Next, Chen Nuo only needs to use his blood to prolong Miyano Akemi's life.

Then take her back to the dojo for treatment.

In this way, Akemi Miyano essentially vanished from the world.

Sherry doesn't need to be in such a hurry to fight against the organization; she can simply pretend to cooperate with them first.

Alternatively, they could wait for a drug that could safely shrink them to a certain size, or wait for Chen Nuo's strength to increase to a level sufficient to fight against the organization. This gave them a lot more options.
