Stay away from Conan.

Chapter 1771 Silver Bullet

Taking advantage of the absolute information gap, he let the FBI arrest Vodka and link the whole incident to the FBI. In this way, he would forcibly drag the FBI into his game.

It can even be said that as long as Vermouth does not expose the truth about her ghost ship plan, the organization will naturally blame all these things on the FBI, whether it is the plan to arrest Vodka or the forces behind Miyano Shiho...

Presumably, the organization will inevitably regard this matter as the FBI's behind-the-scenes meddling.

Of course, this plan of his only controls everything that happens on the ghost ship. As for things in other places, such as what Vermouth herself is doing, and whether Conan and Xiaolan will act like in the original work, he has no idea.

However, judging from Vermouth's attitude towards Conan and Xiaolan, he didn't need to worry too much about their safety. Moreover, he didn't find Shuichi Akai among the FBI on the ghost ship. So it seems that although it was Akemi Miyano who found a way to notify Shuichi Akai about the arrest of Vodka, Shuichi Akai himself did not directly participate in the execution stage. So it seems that -

  It is likely that like in the original work, Shuichi Akai went to Vermouth?

With this in mind, Gao Yuan didn't need to worry about it anymore. Anyway, his goal had been achieved. All that was left was to use this incident to negotiate with Vermouth.

  After all, a member of the organization named Vodka, who has a code name for a drink, was arrested by the FBI. This should be something that the organization must take seriously!

Now, the organization doesn't know that Vodka has been captured, so he can use this clue to trade with Vermouth.

Meanwhile, the whereabouts of vodka…

Haha, while I was disguising myself as the "Headless Horseman" and subduing Vodka first, I also installed trackers on several FBI agents who came to help. It was no secret to me where the FBI would be staying in the future and where they would take Vodka.

Moreover, even if I can't determine the final situation through this, I at least have Akai Shuichi's number...

Thinking of this, Gao Yuan already knew that no matter what the content of the bet was, he was already invincible, so it would be easy to make Vermouth fulfill his promise and give up his actions against the Siling Group.

Gao Yuan was very sure of this...

……

"Eh? Oh no! Shinichi..."

At the same time, while Gao Yuan completed his plan on the ghost ship, on the other side, as part of Conan's plan, Dr. Agasa, who was monitoring Conan's situation in real time, heard the sound of the gun that Vermouth used to shoot herself.

Therefore, after hearing the gunshot and seeing no other loud noises afterwards and Conan's location not moving, even though Dr. Agasa was not clear about the specific situation over there, he knew that something had happened to Conan.

So, after listening for a long time and then hearing the sound of someone opening the car door and leaving, and no other movement occurred, and the instrument connected to Conan's heartbeat still showed that Conan was not dead, Dr. Agasa felt that Vermouth should have left, so he drove his yellow Beetle worriedly to where Conan was.

When Dr. Agasa arrived at Conan's location, he saw Judy's car left at the scene. Then, when Dr. Agasa came to the car, he naturally saw Conan who was left in the passenger seat, and Xiaolan who was in the back seat.

"Xiao Lan? How could she…"

For a moment, seeing Xiaolan was also here, Dr. Agasa was surprised and didn't understand what happened, but...

Now they are both unconscious...

Therefore, Dr. Agasa could only move them into his car and send Xiaolan to the hospital first, while Conan was left in his car, waiting for Conan to wake up and ask about the specific situation...

……

"Oh? Did you lose to Akai Shuichi?"

On the other side, just as Dr. Agasa rescued Conan and Xiaolan, Vermouth injured her own leg. Using the pain to keep herself awake, after leaving Judy's car, she dragged her injured leg alone, left the woods, found a secluded place nearby, called Gin, and explained her current situation.

  In response, when Gin heard Vermouth say that she was injured by Akai Shuichi, he asked coldly: Vermouth's actions are really unpredictable. Wasn't she dealing with the ghost ship? How did she involve Akai Shuichi again?

"Yeah, I ran into him by chance and he broke three of my ribs..."

  In this case, Vermouth did not explain too much, but just told her situation directly, and then said with some emotion:

"A year ago in New York, I disguised myself as a silver-haired killer and wanted to lure him out and kill him. I thought he would let his guard down if he was just an ordinary murderer..."

"It's a pity you failed."

Gin reminded.

"Yeah. If I had known it would turn out like this, I should have killed him regardless of the consequences. Bo, Boss said that man... might become our silver bullet... I'm afraid of that man..."

Vermouth continued to sigh helplessly.

"Humph."

Hearing this, Gin couldn't help but sneer:

"There is no such thing as a silver bullet that can wipe us out with one shot..."

Gin scoffed at what Vermouth said.

"Anyway... I'm near a telephone booth along Route 20. Can you come pick me up? I'm in a little trouble and can't move..."

Hearing Gin's usual attitude, Vermouth didn't say anything more and directly expressed her request to him -

After all, at this time, it would be difficult for me to move with a gunshot wound.

So, after listening to Vermouth's request, Gin did not agree immediately, but just hung up the phone.

Vermouth was relieved about this.

No answer means agreement...

but……

  Silver bullet?

Except for Akai Shuichi whom Boss thinks...

"Perhaps, the one who could pierce my chest was him... It was the silver bullet I had been waiting for for so long..."

Thinking back to Conan who suddenly appeared during this operation, Vermouth thought to herself:

Compared to Gao Yuan's roughly predictable actions, Conan's pursuit of justice is more to my liking...

So, just as Vermouth was thinking about this, she found that she had received an email on her phone -

And when Vermouth opened the letter, Vermouth's relaxed expression suddenly...

  So solemn!
