Conan Rick's Investigator

I saw a human left foot completely connected to my calf.

This is!

Vermouth looked in disbelief at her left foot, which should have been lost but still existed, standing intact at the end of the bed.

Try moving your toes. Although the response is slow and the amplitude is pitifully small, they are actually moving!

"you……"

Vermouth looked at the man under the light with a look of disbelief on her face.

But that person didn't care about what was happening in front of him and just said it calmly.

"Vermouth, let's make a deal..."

Chapter 903 FBI, come out to collect the express delivery!

The next day, Mihua Hospital.

Judy sat upright on the hospital bed, staring at the sky outside the window, lost in thought.

After a while, James and Shuichi Akai walked in one after another.

James stood at the door and asked with concern: "How are you? Are you feeling better?"

"Well, luckily the bullet didn't hit a vital part. It should be healed soon..."

Judy, who was quiet and intellectual a second ago, immediately put on a serious face.

The person who felt the most regretful was that they failed to capture Vermouth in this operation. It was a great opportunity to arrest her enemy personally, but she missed it because she organized the rescue of her accomplices.

After this separation, I don’t know when I will be able to find out about Vermouth’s whereabouts again.

Of course, the FBI has not completely lost the clues.

According to what Vermouth said that night, she was very obsessed with the little girl named "Shirley" and wanted to get rid of her as soon as possible.

As long as the FBI can stay with "Sulli" forever, it means there will be a chance to find Vermouth in the future.

However, Shuichi Akai firmly opposed the plan of using "Sulli" as bait and applied for the FBI's witness protection system for her.

As long as Haibara Ai agrees, the FBI can hide her identity, let her live somewhere in the United States, and find a retired FBI agent from a well-off family to adopt her, so that she will never have to worry about food, clothing, or other expenses for the rest of her life.

The only thing is that you can never associate with people you knew before.

"Isn't today the time to give an answer?"

"I don't know if the little girl named 'Sherry' will accept our conditions..."

James muttered as he glanced at Shuichi Akai who was leaning against the wall next to the ward door.

"Shuichi, what do you think?"

James' question was tentative because he also noticed that Shuichi Akai seemed to have a close relationship with the girl named "Sherry" and Shuichi took good care of her.

In fact, James had a bold guess in his mind, that is, this little girl "Shirley", judging from the code name that Vermouth called her, should be a member of the Black Organization.

And Akai Shuichi had also been undercover in the organization, so maybe something happened between the two of them in the organization...

But for Shuichi Akai, James didn't completely regard him as a subordinate, but more like a friend.

Since his friend didn't want to talk, he didn't want to force him to answer. Besides, Shuichi Akai was principled and knew the limits, so he knew what he should explain proactively.

Therefore, James still wanted to wait for Shuichi Akai to figure it out and say it out himself.

But let's test Akai Shuichi's attitude first. It's not an excessive thing between friends.

Akai Shuichi leaned against the wall, closed his eyes and said, "Maybe."

After two seconds of silence, he continued.

"I hope so..."

As the official brother-in-law and designated lover of Haibara Ai's sister, Shuichi Akai tries his best to help Haibara Ai within his ability.

Although Akemi is no longer with us, Shuichi Akai wants to keep his promise to Akemi and take responsibility for taking care of his little sister-in-law.

Just as the three people in the room fell silent in the strange composition, a short figure hurried over to the door of the ward and knocked on it.

Dudu——

James and Shuichi Akai were both alert, but when they saw the small figure behind the frosted glass at the door, they immediately understood who was coming.

The two didn't want to create an overly serious atmosphere, and Akai Shuichi, who felt guilty, didn't want to meet Haibara Ai now, so the two of them hid behind the screen on the other side of the bed.

"Please come in."

As Judy finished speaking, a brown-haired loli walked into the ward, breathing heavily.

"I'm so glad~ I didn't expect you to come visit me."

Judy had a smile on her face and spoke in a relaxed tone, not directly turning the topic to a serious one.

But of course Haibara Ai was not here to visit a patient.

Although Conan said that the FBI are all good people with outstanding abilities in all aspects, he has been a part of the organization for a long time after all, and he just can't feel good about the FBI because of his bloodline.

People who have lived in darkness for a long time will subconsciously raise their hands to cover their eyes even when they walk into the sunlight one day.

"Before I change my mind, I want to tell you my answer..."

Getting to the point, Judy continued smiling, "Have you made up your mind yet? Will you accept witness protection?"

Ai Huihara calmed her breath, sat up and looked at Judy lying on the hospital bed.

"That's right. If I could change my name and become someone else, I could live safely for a while."

"But, I refuse."

Upon hearing this answer, Judy on the hospital bed and the two people behind the screen all reacted to varying degrees.

Huiyuan Ai continued, "If I choose to escape now, I will have to hide my identity and face fear every day. Once I am exposed, I will have to change my identity again. It will be endless..."

"Plus, there's no solid evidence that would allow me to fully trust the FBI's protection."

"Besides, I want to say that I don't want to escape..."

Haibara Ai's words touched Judy a little. Once upon a time, she was also a frightened little girl like Haibara.

In order to avenge her parents, she resolutely chose to accept the witness protection system and decided to join the FBI in the future.

However, Haibara Ai's situation is different from hers. The former's determination is not as strong.

Even though she knew that Gin was the murderer of her sister, Haibara Ai didn't dare to think about revenge. She was even scared of Gin's look or the words "Ah~ Shirley" in her dream.

Haibara Ai is not fearless, but it is precisely because she is afraid that she does many things that seem "fearless".

Because she was afraid that Vermouth would execute Conan, she "fearlessly" ran out and asked for death.

She also considered accepting the protection of the FBI because she was afraid that Vermouth would hurt innocent people around her again, such as Mao Lilan and Cheng Shi, because she wanted to kill herself.

But on the way to school today, Conan told her the latest news, or "secret".

Vermouth will never attack Shirley again.

At the same time, the organization will send a new killer named "Michael", a blond foreigner.

This person is no stranger to the two little guys. He is Miyano Akemi's lover and Haibara's brother-in-law, but he is also a killer lurking in the dark.

Conan's idea is that if Michael appears around, his side can persuade the other side to become an insider in the Red Team's organization.

Michael still has a conscience and does not completely obey the organization's orders, so the probability of him successfully rebelling is still very high.

Once we can capture this person, we will have a lot more initiative, and we will no longer be on the passive defense, and we will have the opportunity to counterattack the organization.

This was Conan's plan in his heart, and there was light in his eyes when he talked about it.

Coincidentally, Haibara Ai saw the light in his eyes.

So, Conan made her see hope, and this time Haibara Ai didn't want to escape her fate anymore.

"Let me tell you something. The organization will soon send out a new killer."

"But that man is my sister's lover. He won't hurt me."

"Please don't hurt him..."

Haibara Ai calculated that if she did not cooperate with the FBI, the FBI would definitely continue to monitor the surrounding area in order to continue investigating the Black Organization.

If Michael were to take action, he would inevitably have a major conflict with the FBI, involving knives and guns.

Haibara Ai doesn't want anything to happen to her brother-in-law. Her father, mother, and sister have all passed away, and she doesn't want to lose any more relatives or friends.

Whether it is Conan, Narimi, Ran Mouri, Dr. Agasa, the three Teitan children... or her brother-in-law, she wants everyone to live well.

While Judy was still in a daze, Huihara Ai said, "Michael is a blond foreigner."

"that's all……"

After saying that, Haibara Ai turned around and left with her small schoolbag on her back, full of energy.

These days, I am becoming more and more hopeful.

……

After Huibara Ai left, James walked out from behind the screen with a calm and serious expression.

"How did that little girl know this information?"

As the commander of this operation, James first considered whether the source of intelligence was reliable.

Lying on the hospital bed, Judy analyzed, "That little girl isn't ordinary either. Maybe she has a source of information we don't know about?"

"But this information is very likely to be true, because at the dock that night, it was a golden-haired man who rescued Vermouth."

"It can be confirmed that there is indeed such a person in the organization."

Judy said "also" because the other "unusual" child was Edogawa Conan.

After listening to Judy's analysis, James nodded in agreement. "It seems that the organization has not given up. Next, we need to formulate a plan..."

As for what kind of plan to formulate, whether to treat him to a meal, behead him, or keep him as a dog, the FBI still needs to discuss it carefully.

After all, the man named "Michael" might only show mercy to Haibara Ai, not to the FBI.

As he spoke, James turned to look at Shuichi Akai who was still standing behind the screen.

"Shuichi, what do you think?"

It's the same question again, showing how much James values this FBI ace.

But this time, Akai Shuichi just stared.

His eyes were wide open, filled with shock, and he stared at the screen in front of him in disbelief.

Ever since he heard the word "sister's lover" from Haibara Ai just now, he became uneasy.

What do you mean my sister’s lover is Michael?

So what am I?

Shuichi Akai still remembers that he and Akemi Miyano started out pretending to be a couple. Could it be that the organization arranged for more than just him to be Akemi Miyano's couple?

Is this possible?

Have it?

Yes or No…

Just when Shuichi Akai was lost in thought, James's question interrupted his thoughts.

"What's wrong with you, Shuichi?"

"Do you think there's a trap here?"

"A trap?" Akai Shuichi asked doubtfully, then shook his head slightly. "It's hard to draw a conclusion right now. We still have too little information..."

James looked at Shuichi Akai and felt that Shuichi seemed to still have something on his mind.

Judy also held the same view. She looked at Shuichi Akai, and the emotion in her eyes was not that of friendship.

Just as the three people in the ward fell silent again, there was another knock on the door.

Dududu——
