Stay away from Conan.

Through the conversation with the gatekeeper, Akai Shuichi learned some things——

Miyano Akemi did rent a house here, but that was more than half a year ago. She didn't come here very often back then, but later on, she basically hasn't been back for a long time...

Akai Shuichi was naturally aware of this. After all, after that incident, Mingmei had already...

"But, I only came back once later..."

However, the sudden turn of events stunned Shuichi Akai. With further questioning, he learned that Miyano Akemi had come back once not long ago, about two months ago.

"But, it was only that one time. I haven't seen her since then..."

The administrator continued.

And to Shuichi Akai, this result seemed to be due to the fact that at that time period, after Miyano Akemi's death was confirmed, and after Vermouth came to Japan, the apartment manager had seen Akemi, so it was basically certain that the organization had been here.

Obviously, even if this is the place Mingmei rented without telling the organization, it should have been discovered by the organization by now, and I'm afraid there won't be anything left inside...

However, with the idea of ​​wanting to see the place where Mingmei once lived, Akai Shuichi still came to the apartment.

After all, because Mingmei had paid the rent, even if she didn't come back, the apartment management never took the initiative to check on her room.

So, if the organization hadn't emptied this place, there would at least be something left here...

Moreover, Mingmei's client asked me to come here, so it shouldn't be because I happened to pass by here, right?

I'm afraid that even if I didn't happen to pass by here, the other party was planning to guide me here.

In this way, thinking of the text message about "meeting" sent by the other party before, Akai Shuichi realized that this might be the other party's step to ask him to meet...

Therefore, after entering the apartment, Shuichi Akai subconsciously looked for traces of human figures, but obviously, there was no one else here.

So, Shuichi Akai took a quick look here and found that it had been turned over and was not tidied up. Shuichi Akai realized that this should be the evidence that the organization had investigated here.

Just as Akai Shuichi was thinking this, a new text message had already been received -

"Go to the rooftop."

So, after seeing these words, Shuichi Akai remained silent, realizing that this seemed to be what the other party called a meeting.

Therefore, after knowing where Miyano Akemi used to live, he didn't bother to investigate it for the time being, so he just turned around and headed towards the rooftop of the apartment building.

Now, there is not much time to waste, so let me see what you really want to do?

Thinking this way, Akai Shuichi climbed onto the rooftop. With the help of the lights on the rooftop, Akai Shuichi finally saw a figure with his back to him.

"You are... the person behind the text message? Who are you?"

Looking at the figure, Akai Shuichi acted very frankly. Perhaps he was wary, but he did not show it clearly. He just showed in a friendly manner that he was willing to talk to the other party.

In response to this, after hearing what Akai Shuichi said, the person in front of him turned his head slightly and realized that Akai Shuichi had arrived, so Akai Shuichi heard the other party's reply -

"You, you're finally here... Moroboshi-sama!"

This was a woman's voice, and it sounded familiar to Akai Shuichi. Then, when he saw her turn around and take off the hat on her head, revealing her short brown curly hair and her delicate mixed-race face...

“Shirley…”

At this moment, after finally seeing Miyano Shiho in person, Akai Shuichi finally let down his guard. He was surprised that the person who appeared here was her, but he could understand it - "No..."

In response, Miyano Shiho ignored Akai Shuichi's reaction and continued to speak:

"I should call you Akai Shuichi... In order to go undercover in the organization, he deliberately approached his sister, and finally his identity was exposed. There was an FBI agent who escaped alone...

"Now, what are you doing back here?"

The more he spoke, the more Shuichi Akai could hear Miyano Shiho's anger.

  As for this point, Akai Shuichi, who was being accused, could not refute it, but his expression remained calm and he said:

"Since you know my identity, you should understand that I have nothing to say. However, since you are being hunted by Vermouth, it means that your current situation is very dangerous. I really hope..."

"What do you want? To cooperate with you?"

  Hearing this, facing Akai Shuichi's attitude, Miyano Shiho folded her hands in front of her and glanced at Akai Shuichi coldly:

"Can the FBI fight against the organization?"

"at this point……"

  After a moment of silence, Akai Shuichi said as if he had thought seriously:

"I can guarantee your safety..."

"In the name of the witness protection program?"

Suddenly, another abrupt voice sounded, a slightly magnetic middle-aged male voice, coming from behind Akai Shuichi.

In response to this, Akai Hide's eyes suddenly frowned, and he looked behind him with some caution——

I saw a figure covered in a black hooded cloak slowly approaching from behind me, and seemed to say to me:

“We naturally know the purpose of your coming to Japan, but you can’t do it.

“The investigation you started 20 years ago has yet to produce any results.

"What good is vodka in your hands?"

So, Akai Shuichi saw the person walking slowly towards him, from behind him, slowly coming to him, standing in front of Miyano Shiho, and saying these words in a deep tone.

It seems that, openly or covertly, there is a lot of distrust in the FBI's actions against the organization, and it can even be said to be ridiculed...

So, this person is the one behind the text message?

At this moment, seeing the man appearing in front of Miyano Shiho, Akai Shuichi made this judgment.

Then, regarding the other party's attitude, Akai Shuichi said indifferently:

"I don't know what you are talking about. It sounds like you are here to negotiate with me. My thoughts have been made clear in the text message. We have our position and will not waver!"

"What's your position? You chased Vermouth from the United States to Japan, and then hid your identity and waited for the opportunity? But your plan has failed, just like when you set up a trap to capture Gin."

The man, who was completely hidden under the cloak, continued:

“You may not know that the old man who appeared at the scene and caused your plan to fail was actually Rum in disguise. If you could have judged that the old man’s identity was questionable at the time, perhaps the investigation into the organization would have yielded results long ago.

"But in the end, you still haven't made any progress, so naturally it's up to me to decide the direction of my plan!" (End of this chapter)
