Conan: What's wrong with my Yan Shuangying's painting style?

As an elite member of the Black Organization, he has participated in many dangerous missions and killed countless so-called masters with various titles that are supernatural but have extremely low strength. He still feels that Vodka's previous statement is a bit alarmist.

However, the sniper said without even looking up.

"Yesterday, you and I both reviewed the surveillance footage from Axie Takuzo's secret safe location."

"If you think any of us besides Binga could single-handedly suppress Axie Takuzo's safe base and escape unscathed with a high casualty ratio, you can speak clearly."

The sniper noticed that Binga had already gotten into the car and was about to leave.

He put away the sniper rifle in his hand, quickly disassembled it, and then placed it in the camouflage box next to it. After everything was placed, he closed the box, buttoned it up, and added.

"Of course, if you think you can take that guy down on your own."

"I believe that neither I, Binga, nor the other members of the task force would object to you challenging that guy—at least, we will collect your body afterward."

Hearing this, the observer clicked his tongue, feeling a little unhappy.

Vodka listened to the conversation between the sniper and the observer.

He was pessimistic about the Black Organization's new action team's plan to kill Yan Shuangying in Hakodate, a place where the Black Organization's influence was not sufficient, because the strength of the Black Organization's new action team was not as good as that of the old action team.

Compared with the old ace Gin, the strength of the new ace Binga is at best on par, or even slightly inferior.

The four codenamed members of the action team, including him, had never worked together, so it was doubtful how much strength they could exert when fighting together. It could be said that if Binga was lost, the four of them would most likely not last more than five minutes together.

————At the beginning, when Yan Shuangying just came into the sight of the Black Organization.

After reading the files and information, Gin determined that [Asai Narumi] was most likely closely related to Yan Shuangying.

Afterwards, he went with Chianti and Cohen, members of the action team at that time, to capture Asai Narimi. However, before catching Asai Narimi, they encountered Yan Shuangying first, and Chianti and Cohen were killed on the spot.

If he hadn't been lucky, he would have died at Yan Shuangying's hands at that time.

In the eyes of the half-human, half-ghost urban legend, the codenamed members of the Black Organization are probably not much different from ordinary miscellaneous gunmen. Instead of following Binga's idea, they should use elite troops to kill Yan Shuangying.

It would be better to follow Brother Gin's original hunting plan and use the manpower advantage to encircle and kill them.

Vodka's fingers tapped quickly on the keyboard.

His eyes fell on the laptop screen, and as he hacked into it, the latest confidential information obtained from the Hakodate Regional Police Headquarters was presented in front of him.

That was information about the complete destruction of the Japanese Public Security Hakodate Headquarters.

"……Um?"

Binga's voice appeared behind Vodka, startling Vodka instantly.

However, he put his hand on Vodka's shoulder, asking Vodka not to move, and his body lowered slightly, taking in all the information on the screen. Then, a look of surprise appeared in his eyes.

"A codename killer from a mysterious organization? According to surveillance records, most Japanese public security officers died in fratricide?"

"I was wondering why the mysterious organization, having suffered such a huge loss, still refused to cooperate with us. So they were planning to send someone to personally avenge Yan Shuangying, and they're too lazy to cooperate with us?"

The new ace of the Black Organization's action team narrowed his eyes slightly.

"It seems that if necessary, we have to contact the mysterious organization again."

"According to that gentleman's thinking, it's only a matter of time before the mysterious organization and the other organizations join forces. This time, let the mysterious organization's code-named killer come and conduct a joint operation against Yan Shuangying."

"As a preview of future cooperation between the two organizations."

Binga said so.

At this time, Vodka closed his laptop and put it in the box. Then, he stood up with the box and set off with other codenamed members of the Black Organization's new action team.

————The next target is the Death Merchant.

It's not that the Black Organization is going to take action against the Death Merchant, but Yan Shuangying is likely to take action against the Death Merchant. As long as the Death Merchant can be found, Yan Shuangying can be found.

As for the possibility that they can find the Death Merchant, but Yan Shuangying can't——

That is impossible.

Chapter 391 Actually Not So

"Just three days ago, Hakodate was full of life, with everything flourishing. How come in just two days, things took a sudden turn for the worse and became so out of control?"

Hakodate Police Headquarters, large conference room.

The current highest-ranking officer of the Hakodate Police Headquarters, the head of the headquarters, sat at the front of the long table, with his hands clasped together, his elbows resting on the table, his chin resting on his head, and he sat there with a serious expression.

He really didn't expect the situation to get so out of control.

He originally thought that this was just a short-term conflict between the Fujiang chaebol and the death merchant in Southeast Asia. Although fierce, it would be completely over after one night. However, the reality was completely different from what he imagined.

Takuzo Axe, who had already hidden behind the scenes and was sure of victory.

Late last night, he suddenly made several calls for help and was eventually killed in the safe house in his own home. His body was blown to pieces, leaving no trace of his corpse. Even a body restorer couldn't repair it.

Members of the Fujiang family have been subjected to serious assassination attempts from late night until now.

All the members of the Fujiang family and the top leaders of the Fujiang chaebol known to the head of this department have now been assassinated. Moreover, the assassins are elusive and even appear in multiple locations at the same time to carry out assassinations.

Even if part of it was done by the mysterious urban legend Yan Shuangying who came from Tokyo, there were other people behind it.

————The Axe family is a well-known and prestigious family in Hokkaido. They rose to prominence during the Second World War and their influence is now profound. They are at the top of the list of celebrities in Hakodate.

But now, members, senior leaders and elders of the Fujiang family were assassinated at will, and died like a stray dog ​​on the roadside.

So, how do other high-ranking officials and celebrities in Hakodate deal with this?

If those elusive assassins, after killing all the people related to the Axe family, turned around and attacked other celebrities and high-ranking officials in Hakodate, would they have any other way to survive?

The answer is definitely————

The assassin who can kill all the members of the Fujiang family can also kill their entire clan.

Therefore, the celebrities and high-ranking officials in the city of Hakodate have begun to collectively put pressure on the Hakodate Police Headquarters. It can be said that the leaders of all walks of life in Hakodate are all on the shoulders of him, the chief of the Hakodate Police Headquarters!

"...Actually, I don't think this kind of incident falls under the category of normal public security or criminal incidents."

"This is just like the indiscriminate killings caused by the release of toxic gas at a subway station. It's a public safety incident and should be handled by the Hakodate local headquarters of the Japanese Public Security Bureau. It's not our business."

At a high-level meeting at the Hakodate Police Headquarters, a senior executive looked at the expressions of the people around him and finally spoke first.

Compared with those senior executives, he looks relatively younger, and in terms of accepting bribes, he is also one of the relatively few among the senior executives of the Hakodate Police Headquarters. Faced with this situation, he is more daring to speak up and express his ideas.

However, this senior executive just opened his mouth to express his thoughts.

The atmosphere in the entire conference room suddenly became more serious.

The other senior executives looked at each other, then turned to look at the senior executive who had suggested that the Japanese Public Security Hakodate Regional Headquarters take the blame. They roughly understood why the young senior executive said so.

This person received less money and did not have enough connections, so he has not received the news yet.

The chief of the Hakodate Police Headquarters, who was sitting in the chief position, was also unable to hold back his composure due to this guy's words.

He sighed and finally said.

"You're right, but the Japanese Public Security Bureau's headquarters in Hakodate was attacked by unknown individuals early this morning. All but two Japanese police officers who were investigating other incidents were killed."

"Wait until the Japanese public security forces are transferred here from other places to deal with the situation in Hakodate."

"Things here are over a long time ago. No, not only are things here over, but you, me, and all of us, our careers are probably over too—"

crunch————

The door of the conference room was pushed open.

A police inspector poked his head out and spoke cautiously.

"For some reason, the media outlets that had originally agreed to hold off on releasing news are now covering last night's incident extensively. The situation is escalating, and public discontent is becoming increasingly difficult to contain."

————Those media outlets are all profit-seeking people, why are they reporting against their own interests at this time?

The commander's eyes narrowed slightly.

In an instant, he figured out the key.

Someone must have given the media more benefits at this time, forcing them to broadcast these related matters in the fastest and most influential way possible even at the risk of being targeted.

This is undoubtedly a revenge from the Suzuki Group in Tokyo.

Early this morning, the chairman of the Suzuki Group called him personally to discuss the attack on Suzuki Sonoko. After not receiving a clear and public apology and being unable to provide a satisfactory solution.

The chairman of the Suzuki Group told him to wait and see.

As a result, something so counterintuitive happened today. The director didn't even need to use his brain to think about it and knew that it must be the invisible hand of the Suzuki Group that was quietly exerting force.

"...Hold a press conference and use the same old rhetoric."

The commander waved his hand and asked the police officer at the door to go out. The police officer at the door hesitated for a moment and asked.

"Which stage of rhetoric should I use?"

————Generally speaking, the official rhetoric is divided into four stages.

The first stage claims that nothing happened, the second stage claims that something happened but no action should be taken, the third stage claims that action should be taken now but nothing can be done, and the fourth stage claims that something could have been done but it is too late.

When it comes to controversial incidents, the Hakodate Police Headquarters often starts with the official statement of the first phase.

"...Phase two, then, close the door—close it from the outside."

The door to the conference room was closed.

The director looked at everyone in the conference room, clapped his hands on the table, and spoke seriously.

“Although our situation is now precarious, it is not.”

"Just in this matter, all the high-ranking officials and celebrities in Hakodate are on our side. In short, the advantage is mine. We must act now to ensure that Yan Shuangying is captured or killed as quickly as possible."

"We must prove our strength immediately!"

Chapter 392: True Sword Victory

"Well, my mother also called me to go back..."

"Oh, it seems I have to go back this time. I'm so sorry, Zhen, I was just thinking about where to go next in the early morning..."

Suzuki Sonoko said with dark circles under her eyes and yawning, sounding somewhat apologetic.

Logically speaking, with Kyogoku Makoto as her protector, there should be no one in Hakodate who can threaten her.

However, after learning that she planned to stay in Hakodate for a while longer, her mother, Suzuki Tomoko, called her and asked her to return to Tokyo immediately and not stay in Hakodate any longer.
