Stay away from Conan.

"Shirley showed up, and Vodka was taken away by the FBI... How did you find out that you came up with something like this? Does this prove that Shirley is really related to Akai Shuichi?"

Just after Vermouth reported the whole incident according to her statement, the adult arranged the follow-up orders and sent Gin and others to follow the tracking signal provided by Vermouth to implement the plan to block the FBI and rescue Vodka. At the same time, Vermouth, as the initiator of this incident, was arranged to be treated in the laboratory of the medical institution belonging to the organization.

Thus, just as Vermouth had completed the initial surgery and was staying in the experimental ward, a sudden visitor surprised Vermouth who was about to rest.

It's bourbon.

This young man with blond hair and dark skin also received an order in this incident. He was sent by Rum to investigate what happened on the other side, that is, at the Port of Rice Flower Pier, and the whereabouts of Calvados.

As a result, the other party actually appeared here, and I didn't know...

"Aren't you going to investigate?"

Facing Bourbon, Vermouth asked this question in a rather calm tone:

To be honest, things have come to this point, and Vermouth no longer has any worries about how the incident will develop. After all, with Gao Yuan leading the subsequent direction of the incident, whether he has reached a cooperation with the FBI or simply used the FBI, it can be predicted. This incident should not affect Gao Yuan himself, Conan and the others.

After all, if Gao Yuan fails to handle the situation well, it will ultimately affect his own life and the lives of Shirley and the others, and it will have nothing to do with him anymore. Presumably, since he dares to do this, he already has a follow-up plan to deal with the organization's counterattack.

In response to this, seeing Bourbon's appearance, although Vermouth could roughly guess the other party's intention, she had lost all interest and just responded like this.

  Hearing Vermouth's question, Bourbon just chuckled and replied directly:

"Investigate? There's actually nothing to investigate about this matter, because the result is obvious."

"Oh?"

Vermouth asked back, slightly curious.

Then, Bourbon's answer was heard:

"After you drove away from the dock, the police arrived at the scene and found the injured FBI agent. She revealed her identity to the police and said that she was an FBI agent who came to Japan for a long vacation and happened to encounter your child kidnapping. She then confronted you and Calvados, the two kidnappers. In the end, Calvados was shot and killed by the FBI agent, and you kidnapped the child and fled the scene..."

  So, after roughly explaining the clues he got from the police, Bourbon couldn't help but sneer:

"Heh... the Japanese police actually chose to believe this kind of explanation."

"There's no way they could have chosen to shoot Calvados."

Hearing this, Vermouth understood that Calvados was indeed dead. She had sensed this when she fled the dock alone.

"The FBI wanted to catch us and get clues from us, so how could they just shoot us like that... I think it's very likely that Calvados committed suicide."

Vermouth seemed a little sad and expressed grief over Calvados' death, but at this moment, she did not feel sad at all about Calvados' passing.

As Calvados was once arranged by himself to do some things unknown to other people in the organization, his death meant that some things that he could not let outsiders know would never be exposed.

In this regard, Vermouth had no objection to this result, or rather, with the death of Calvados, Gin and the others' work became a lot easier. Otherwise, if Calvados was still alive, they would have to continue to find ways to rescue or kill Calvados.

But now, the only thing that needs to be dealt with is vodka...

"Well, it looks like he committed suicide." Bourbon agreed with Vermouth's judgment, and then he looked at Vermouth with a little doubt and asked:

"But...kidnapping children? How could they come up with such an excuse..."

"Who knows."

Faced with this question, Vermouth naturally would not answer——

It seems that Judy and the others simply told the Japanese police that she had kidnapped a child and escaped with Conan as hostage, but this matter is unimportant. Even if it is later discovered that she had taken hostages and escaped, she can make up excuses at will. And if she does not give a direct answer now, it may also be because she does not want to answer.

After all, this matter involves too many of my own secrets...

"But now that you've found out all this, why don't you report to Rum? Why are you looking for me instead?"

At this moment, Vermouth thought about it and asked back.

"I told you, I'm very curious about how you found out that Shirley had a connection with the FBI, and...it actually led to Akai Shuichi...I'm very concerned about this matter."

  Bourbon seemed very interested and asked:

"And... after Vodka was arrested, they were able to use Vodka to track the FBI... The tracking website you provided was not the one that organized the tracking of Vodka's cell phone signal... But it makes sense that the FBI should have blocked his cell phone signal. So, normally, it can only be you who installed a tracker on them. Then, since you were not at the scene, who did this?"

"Ah--"

  Hearing this, Vermouth smiled coldly:

"Are you trying to find out my secrets? What methods I used to investigate are my secrets... Or, why don't you share your sources of information with me? Maybe I will agree to an exchange!"

"Oh, that's right."

Facing Vermouth's answer, Bourbon smiled faintly, thinking that his sources of information included the Japanese Public Security Bureau, but he couldn't say...

Therefore, Bourbon nodded in agreement with Vermouth's words:

"Then... I won't disturb your rest."

After saying this to Vermouth, Bourbon knew that it was unlikely that he would be able to obtain any more information from Vermouth, so he turned around and left.

Akai Shuichi...

Now that we have started, there will always be a chance to meet again later!

  Wait!

……

Turning his sight, he came to Shuichi Akai's side. Due to the difference in the location of the operation, the agents who captured Vodka from the ghost ship did not immediately join Shuichi Akai's side. However, since they already knew that the organization would definitely find a way to rescue or kill Vodka, then the organization must have Vodka's whereabouts. So Shuichi Akai immediately contacted the agents who were operating there and asked them to carefully look for any eavesdropping devices secretly installed on Vodka or the participants in the operation.

If we can find it, then we will have a countermeasure to the organization's means of tracking us... (End of this chapter)
