Conan Rick's Investigator

Anyway, there is still a long way to go, I just need to secretly observe the development of the events later...

While the car was moving, Qin Zhibo asked Hondou Eisuke the initial question.

"How's it going? Have you thought about it?"

"Hmm?" Hondou Eisuke was stunned for a moment before he realized, "That..."

"I've decided. I'm going to America, joining the CIA, and becoming like my dad and sister. Then one day, I'll be able to work with my sister to wipe out that evil organization!"

Hondou Eisuke became more and more excited as he spoke, attracting a puzzled look from the driver in front.

Doesn’t this kid have some serious brain disease?

Qin Zhibo couldn't comment on Hondou Eisuke's thoughts. He could only say that if this was the result of his discussion with Mizunashi Rena, then he had nothing to say.

This path is very difficult because first of all he is Japanese and holds Japanese nationality.

The CIA is an organization established to safeguard the interests of the United States. To join the CIA, one must be a U.S. citizen.

In other words, given his current situation, he must first obtain a green card, be admitted to university, successfully graduate from university, change his nationality, join the CIA, pass the CIA's assessment, and become a formal member.

This process will take at least six or seven years.

I guess by that time, the world might have changed.

Perhaps Rena Mizunashi saw the huge obstacles on this road, so she allowed Eisuke Hondou to make such a decision?

Their purpose was simply to lure Hondou Eisuke out of Japan and away from this dangerous country.

This "danger" comes from multiple dimensions and angles.

Not only are there evil black organizations, but the crime rate is also comparable to that of Sin City, which means this place is destined to be an uninhabitable place.

"Well, when you get back, pack your bags and submit your application to travel to the United States."

"We'll leave Japan anytime you're ready."

……

Qin Zhibo was taken back to the office by the Suzuki family's car and went upstairs to fall asleep.

This night's experience was physically and mentally exhausting for him, and he had been trying hard to stay awake in the car just now.

When I woke up again, it was already past four in the afternoon.

After a quick wash, Qin Zhibo called Yasuharu Haneda.

After a few pleasantries, Qin Zhibo explained the purpose of his call.

"I want to contact the CIA. Do you have any channels?"

"CIA?"

Yasuharu Haneda knew that Qin Zhibo used to be an FBI agent, but he didn't know why an FBI agent would contact the CIA.

Qin Zhibo explained: "The CIA has an undercover agent lurking in the organization in Japan, and he has lost contact with the organization."

"I promised this person that I would help him contact the organization."

During the last phone call, Rena Mizunashi told me some information about the CIA lurking in Japan.

But as time passed, Qin Zhibo discovered that these CIAs were no longer there.

"Really? There's such a thing..."

Haneda Yasuharu hesitated for a moment, but still replied: "I can try, and I will call you back when I have news."

"Well, thank you then."

After hanging up the phone, Qin Zhibo lay down in the boss chair and started thinking.

The reason why he believed that Yasuharu Haneda was capable of contacting the CIA was because Rena Mizunashi's father had infiltrated the organization 17 years ago and might be related to the death of the American capitalist.

And Amanda Hughes is a senior member of the Nine Angels organization. In this case, the Nine Angels must have some connection with the CIA.

But the problem now is that Shuichi Akai has disappeared for two days.

Logically speaking, with the FBI's ace missing, chaos should have begun to break out within the FBI.

It's almost time for a call...

Qin Zhibo was thinking about it when the phone suddenly rang.

When I picked up the phone, it was indeed the FBI's chief of operations in Japan, James Blake.

"Qin, is it convenient to talk now?"

"Convenient, is there something wrong?"

"It's Xiuyi, Xiuyi seems to have an accident..."

Chapter 977 Departure

"Something happened... What exactly happened?"

Qin Zhibo, who knew what had happened, paused for a moment and pretended to be surprised.

James on the other end of the phone recounted what had happened.

"Two days ago, after you finished investigating the home of that female anchor named Mizunashi Reina, I spoke to Shuichi on the phone."

"But since then, Shuichi has stopped returning calls and hasn't even shown up for the FBI's internal meetings. It's as if he's vanished from the face of the earth..."

James' description made Qin Zhibo understand that Shuichi Akai did not reveal to the FBI his plan of "father" appearing and inviting him to cooperate in capturing Gin.

This shows that in terms of emotional inclination, Shuichi Akai is still more inclined towards his father.

"Isn't he usually with you guys?" Qin Zhibo pretended to be ignorant and continued to ask questions.

"No, he said he needed to hide from someone outside to ensure the safety of the FBI, so he usually acts alone."

Qin Zhibo could probably guess that the person Shuichi Akai wanted to avoid was probably Toru Amuro.

Ever since taking leave from the office, Toru Amuro seems to have been tracking and investigating Shuichi Akai.

"Qin, do you think it might be the person Xiuyi was trying to avoid outside who finally made a move on Xiuyi..."

Although James was reluctant to believe this conjecture, after all, Shuichi's strength was obvious to all in the FBI, and ordinary people could not deal with him.

Are there any experts out there?

"It's hard to say..." Qin Zhibo murmured, "But it seems there haven't been any murders targeting foreigners in Tokyo in the past two days."

"If it's Shuichi, he might be hiding for the time being. You don't have to worry too much."

"is it?"

James rubbed his white sheriff's beard and noticed that Qin's attitude towards the matter was relatively calm.

But on second thought, when Shuichi first joined the FBI, he was partnered with Qin, and the latter also knew Shuichi's strength very well.

This may be due to the trust between companions, so they believe that Shuichi Akai is fine.

However, as the commander-in-chief of FBI operations in Japan, he should be responsible and conscientious to every subordinate and cannot expect Shuichi to appear on his own.

"I understand. I will organize the FBI to conduct a full-scale search in the near future."

"Qin, do you have time?"

Obviously, James wanted to drag Qin Zhibo into the search team as well.

After all, searching for missing persons is not directly part of the FBI's mission, so there is no problem in letting former FBI agents join in.

But Qin Zhibo really didn't have time. He also had to find a way to help the FBI find a living Shuichi Akai.

"Sorry, I have to go back to the United States for some things recently."

"Back to America? So suddenly?"

James was a little surprised, as he thought his old friend had settled in Japan.

"Well, I have some things to do... so I'd like to ask you to provide me with access to the case files I've handled in the past."

In this era, high-tech information storage technology like databases has not yet been developed, even for the FBI.

Therefore, I have to go to the United States to see these files and materials, which also provides a suitable reason for going to the United States.

"Past case files?" James obviously didn't guess the reason. "Did something go wrong with a past case?"

"I'm a little concerned... but I can't be sure right now, so I have to go back and confirm it with my own eyes..."

Qin Zhibo's words were ambiguous, which made James hesitate.

But after a few seconds, he agreed.

"Sure. I'll have someone arrange it once you get to New York."

"Thank you, and if there's any new updates on Shuichi's side, don't forget to contact me at any time."

After hanging up the phone, James turned his heavy gaze to the many FBI agents in the room.

Judy, eager to find the person, stepped forward and asked hurriedly, "How is it? What did he say?"

James shook his head helplessly.

"He doesn't have any clues about Shuichi..."

Judy's expression changed and she stood there with her eyes wide open.

James could understand this, as Judy and Shuichi Akai's office romance was no secret within the FBI.

Later, Shuichi Akai unilaterally dumped Judy due to the needs of the mission.

But until now, Judy still has feelings for Shuichi, and they go beyond the relationship of colleagues.

In this regard, James could only use Qin Zhibo's words to comfort his subordinate who was confused due to worry.

"You have to believe in Shuichi's ability. He can't be dealt with so easily."

"At times like this, we must remain calm and do our best to find our companions!"

"Now let's arrange the search area for each person..."

James looked at a Tokyo city map on the table and began to plan areas for each investigator.

Doing this is like looking for a needle in a haystack, but it's better than doing nothing.

Besides, now that the clue of Rena Mizunashi is gone, the FBI has temporarily lost the clue of investigating the organization, and finding the missing agent is the only thing they can do.

……

Under James' arrangement, everyone was given new tasks.

Judy also cheered up and walked out of the building with other agents with confidence and hope.

Everyone got into their cars in the parking lot and drove off in different directions.

Behind the green belt across the street, a figure was silently gazing at the parking lot opposite.

One, two, three, four...

"Ten people in total..."

The figure was wearing gray sportswear and a hooded sweatshirt, and looked like an ordinary resident who was running and exercising nearby.

But if anyone was watching him, he'd actually been hanging around here for over an hour.

And this person is Toru Amuro.

Ever since the assassination attempt two days ago, Toru Amuro has been secretly investigating the mystery behind the incident, especially who killed Gin.

Judging from the surveillance footage, that face is most likely Zhu Fujingguang.

This is not the first time that Toru Amuro has encountered Keimitsu Morofushi, but every time it is unfortunate, as if fate always makes the two of them pass each other by.

But no matter what, Zhu Fujingguang's appearance is inextricably linked to the FBI.

Because it was Shuichi Akai who "killed" Morifushi Kagemitsu right in front of his eyes.

Now that Gin was killed, it might be related to Shuichi Akai manipulating Morofushi Kagemitsu behind the scenes, so he couldn't let go of this clue.

After more than a day of investigation, he was the first to find the FBI base.

In fact, the FBI's base is not difficult to find. These foreigners who use their own information to rent houses can be easily detected. In addition, a large number of foreign faces frequently entering and leaving a place will definitely arouse the suspicion of the surrounding neighbors.
