Conan Rick's Investigator

……

At Toru Amuro's request, Qin Zhibo told his experience of being forced to become the "confidant of the organization boss."

This is a long story, and there is no way to make it short.

Everything started with the task of attending the memorial service at the Beihu Hotel. If Qin Zhibo had not happened to approach the female star Chris Wynyard in the identity of "Michael Bay", it would have been a disaster.

Later, Qin Zhibo joined the organization with the same identity, which made Vermouth, who had seen "Michael", suspicious.

Combined with Gin's various imaginations and interpretations, the rumor that Michael was sent by the organization's boss to investigate his subordinates spread among Gin and his gang.

Fortunately, Gin and Vermouth both knew the rules well. They knew that even if they discovered their boss's hidden assessment, they could not question him in person and embarrass him. Otherwise, the matter would have been exposed long ago.

Toru Amuro, who was sitting opposite the coffee table, listened to Qin Zhibo's description, and the expression on his face gradually froze.

His mouth opened slightly, gradually forming an "O" shape.

This……

This is also possible!

So this is the origin of the saying "the organization boss's confidant"!

I thought you were really the boss's confidant!

The key point for Toru Amuro is that the most ridiculous part of this incident was that he was the one who provided the information about the memorial service for director Sakamaki at the Haido Hotel!

As an intelligence worker of the organization, Toru Amuro often gets some news inside the organization.

That time, I accidentally learned that Vermouth and Pisco might have some mission in the Beihu Hotel.

But given that Toru Amuro's own identity is quite sensitive, if he rashly showed up at the Haido Hotel serving dishes when he was not on the mission list, he would definitely be suspected if he was discovered.

So Toru Amuro reported the information and asked his superiors to send someone to check out the situation.

As a result, the person sent to investigate was Qin Zhibo, which led to a series of subsequent misunderstandings.

After listening to Qin Zhibo's explanation of the whole story, Amuro Toru suddenly understood.

Off the charts!

I played myself...

Chapter 944: Middle-aged People Shouldn’t Be Too Young

While Toru Amuro was reflecting on himself, Qin Zhibo picked up the black tea and took a sip carefully.

Seeing that he almost understood, Qin Zhibo asked, "How did you know that I was considered the 'boss's confidant'?"

Amuro Toru was stunned for a moment, then slowly said, "I have a deal with Vermouth. She asked me to investigate you and told me your identity..."

Belmode?

Qin Zhibo frowned. He didn't expect that this woman would actually send someone to investigate him secretly.

Logically speaking, she and her boss have a close relationship, and the trust between them should exceed that of other organizational cadres.

But now it seems that Vermouth is also wary of her boss and does not fully trust him.

And when he caught Vermouth, she would rather saw off her own legs than tip off Conan.

Is it possible that Vermouth might turn against us?

If she hadn't felt guilty, she wouldn't have been so worried about her boss's investigation.

Qin Zhibo expressed his thoughts, but Amuro Toru shook his head decisively.

"No, anyone in the organization could betray the boss, but Vermouth wouldn't."

"Because, Vermouth is the daughter of that adult."

Katcha!

Qin Zhibo's head trembled, and he felt that he might have heard it wrongly.

Belmos is the boss's daughter?

But I clearly remember that when the boss met Vermouth, he called her "the mother of the child", which is an intimate name only used between spouses.

"Are you mistaken? How could Vermouth be that man's daughter?"

Amuro Toru said confidently: "It can't be wrong, Vermouth has already indirectly admitted this."

"Goddaughter, or biological daughter?"

"I'm not sure about that. She should be my biological daughter... But no one in the organization knows about this, and Vermouth doesn't like others to know about it."

This time it was Toru Amuro's turn to take a sip of black tea and wait quietly.

Although Toru Amuro believed that this matter was a foregone conclusion, Qin Zhibo still found it incredible.

If Vermouth is the daughter of the organization's boss, why is she called that by the boss?

Did Toru Amuro find out the false information?

Or since Vermouth is both a daughter and a woman, the boss of the organization is a bit perverted.

Or maybe there's some other reason...

……

In an unknown place, Vermouth was wearing a light purple silk blouse with white silk flowers and slim light blue jeans. She was sitting in front of the dressing table, sorting out the various raw materials needed to make a human skin mask.

Silicone, false eyelashes, human head molds, hair of various colors... each item is neatly placed in the box.

Surrounding it are elegantly decorated English aristocratic boudoirs. Warm sunlight shines through the lattice windows onto the four-poster bed dominated by rose red.

Beams of light fill the room thanks to the Tyndall effect, and the scene is so harmonious.

Suddenly, a phone call broke the harmony.

bell--

Vermouth picked up the old-fashioned telephone next to the dressing table. The intricate withered flower texture and inefficient dial have gradually become the reasons why it has been eliminated by modern people.

But tradition is still being upheld here.

"Gin, has that plan been finalized?"

"Yes, it's already been arranged. Michael will be in charge of the sniping this time, and Chianti and Cohen will be in charge of the support. The assassination will take place at Eddie P."

"But to prevent any accidents from happening, I will come to pick you up in two days."

“Hehe~” Vermouth pursed her lips and chuckled twice, “As expected, you can’t leave me, Qin…”

Facing Vermouth's obviously provocative voice and words, "human ice cube" Gin still replied coldly: "Don't get me wrong, this is just what that adult meant."

"Okay, get ready now. If anything goes wrong with the sniper plan, you'll be needed to fill in."

"However, if it was that man who took action, there shouldn't be any accidents..."

After saying that, Gin decisively hung up the phone without even saying goodbye.

Vermouth also hung up the phone, muttering the assassination location that Gin had just mentioned.

"Eddie P...Haito Park."

"London's Hyde Park, huh, it's a very suitable place for hunting..."

Vermouth smiled softly, recalling some things from her childhood.

……

At the Tomohiro Detective Agency, after an hour of discussion, Qin Tomohiro and Amuro Toru exchanged most of the currently known information and began to formulate a preliminary battle plan.

Originally, Qin Zhibo wanted to use the power of the public security to set up an ambush at the fourth parking lot of the imperial capital where the group would gather two days later and catch them all in one fell swoop.

But as soon as this plan was proposed, Toru Amuro rejected it.

"Every time the organization cadres go to a new place to gather, they will arrange spies and personnel to investigate the place in advance, so they will not be easily fooled."

"I used to do this job in the organization, I know this very well."

Toru Amuro believes that the reason Gin was able to escape the FBI's capture two years ago was because someone investigated the situation at the scene in advance and saw through the FBI's ambush.

Shuichi Akai had not been a member of an organization engaged in intelligence work before, so he naturally did not know that the organization had such a process.

The division of labor within the organization is strict. Each code member can only know a limited number of organizational members and rarely comes into contact with code members from other work processes.

For example, snipers are assassins and will not trade.

Traders trade, they don't engage in assassinations.

As a result, all codename members have limited access to the organization's business, and even if they are captured and tortured, the intelligence they can obtain is limited.

Among them, Gin is an exception. He is mainly responsible for assassination business, and transactions are occasionally assigned to him. Intelligence is also gathered to him, making him both a father and a mother.

Because of this, Gin's capture value is currently the highest.

Toru Amuro had also heard of the organization's second-in-command "Rum", but this person's level of mystery in the organization was second only to "that adult". Unlike Gin, he did not often show up in public, so he could still deal with him if there was a chance.

"If you want to catch the members of the organization headed by Gin, the best way is not to set up an ambush in advance."

"Gin has a keen sense of smell and is a suspicious person. If there's even the slightest sign of something strange happening, he'll retreat immediately."

"If we want to catch him, it's best to strike him where he least expects it..."

As the "Bourbon" of the organization, Toru Amuro has been fighting openly and secretly with Gin for many years, and he has some research experience on this old rival.

When dealing with a cunning opponent like Gin, having more people is useless. The more people there are, the easier it is to be exposed.

Not to mention ordinary police officers, even public security police officers might accidentally reveal their tracks and let Gin escape.

But Gin often appears alone. If there are not enough police officers, they will not be able to quickly subdue these desperadoes, and the situation may turn into a bloody incident if they are not careful.

"Then what do you think we should do?"

Regarding the arrest, Qin Zhibo still wanted to hear more about the opinions of professional Amuro Toru.

But Amuro Toru frowned and couldn't figure it out until he finished the tea in the cup.

If he had a good way to catch Gin, would he wait until today to act?

Seeing that Amuro Toru couldn't say anything, Qin Zhibo had no choice but to leave it like this for the time being and let him find a way to investigate the identity of "Kil" later.

Even if we can't catch Gin, we must at least make sure we can catch Kiel first.

Moreover, this Kiel should be lurking beside Yasuteru Domon, so he should be easier to find.

……

The next morning, Qin Zhibo received a message from Amuro Toru.

The people who always accompany Yasuteru Domon to various events include two bodyguards and a driver, and the assistant does not accompany him.

However, these three people are all from the Self-Defense Forces with a good pedigree. They are the confidants that Yasuteru Domon has been cultivating since he was in the Self-Defense Forces. So far, no suspicious places have been found.

In addition, there is no plan for Yasuki Domon to go to Haido Park the day after tomorrow.

Yasuki Domon's travel plan for the day after tomorrow is to play golf, but there is no golf course in Beihu Park.

This made Qin Zhibo confused for a moment.

Yasuki Domon would never go to Haido Park, so why did Gin choose Haido Park as the location for the assassination?

Are you planning to let me snipe you from eight hundred miles away?

Or is Gin still testing himself?

But the boss of the organization planned to assassinate a candidate for parliament. I heard it with my own ears and it was definitely not wrong.

It seems that we cannot act rashly to capture Gin.

……

On the third day, with only one day left before the assassination attempt, Toru Amuro still had not found out Kil's identity.

There is almost no information about Kiel within the organization, simply because this person has never shown up in the organization since joining it, and seems to have always been Gin's exclusive intelligence officer.

There was no other way, Qin Zhibo could only go to the recording of the "Good Morning 7 o'clock" program on Nichimi TV as agreed.

At 9 o'clock in the morning, Qin Zhibo arrived at Nichimi TV in Shiodome on time and met the staff waiting in the lobby downstairs.

"Hello, thank you very much for coming!" The staff shook hands with Qin Zhibo excitedly.
