Stay away from Conan.

"Yes, this was indeed done by Akai."

Seeing Conan's interest, James readily told him about it, and then added some details:

"At that time, Akai received some information and knew that Vodka would appear on a ship, so he sent people to make arrangements in advance, and he actually succeeded in capturing Vodka...

"To be honest, we were also shocked when we first learned about this. We thought that based on Akai's attitude, he might directly go to war with the organization. After all, this opportunity to directly fight the organization is rare for him.

"But unexpectedly, what we were worried about did not happen. In the end, he took the initiative to release Vodka and was rescued by the organization's people..."

When James said this, his tone seemed to be somewhat relieved.

So, this statement seemed particularly special to Conan, who didn't know Akai Shuichi.

Is there someone in the FBI who wants to go to war directly with the organization?

Conan was thinking this, but he saw Judy said with some regret:

"But... I always feel that if he had insisted on fighting the organization at that time, perhaps he would feel better than he does now..."

"Yes, that would be a chance to avenge her girlfriend..."

James has the same idea.

Conan was a little surprised by this statement:

"Revenge for your girlfriend?"

"Akai's girlfriend... was killed by those guys..."

Hearing Conan's question, Judy explained:

"Just a few months ago..."

"Huh? Why?"

——An FBI agent’s girlfriend was killed by the organization, and it happened a few months ago...

Was the FBI already in Japan at that time? Or was it something that happened in the United States?

Conan couldn't help but have all kinds of guesses in his mind.

As a result, Judy's next words shocked Conan -

"Hide... It seems that Akai's girlfriend has something to do with the organization. She was planning to leave the organization, so she was silenced by the organization."

——A woman who wanted to leave the organization was killed! It happened a few months ago!

For a moment, after such information appeared, Conan always felt that these things were somewhat familiar, so Conan hurriedly asked:

"Why, why does Mr. Akai know that woman?"

"In order to get closer to the organization..."

James explained this, and Judy continued:

"I heard that the girl herself doesn't have a close relationship with the organization, but her sister is a scientist in the organization."

——Sister? Scientist?

As James and Judy revealed more and more information, Conan felt that they were getting closer and closer to his guess.

"Yes, Akai got to know her sister and contacted the people around her sister, and then successfully infiltrated the organization. He used the pseudonym Moroboshi Dai and became a member of the organization."

James then explained:

"In the three years between five years ago and two years ago."

"what!"

Conan was indeed very surprised, and he exclaimed in surprise - So, the so-called girlfriend of Mr. Akai was actually...

Thinking of this, the figure of the female robber Miyano Akemi who died in front of him during the 1 billion yen robbery naturally emerged in Conan's mind...

FBI agent, Akai...

No, just now Teacher Judy seemed to have subconsciously said the word "Xiu", is that his name? So Mr. Akai is called Akai Xiu...

No! It's "Akai Shuichi"! I've seen this name before! During the bus robbery!

"He got along well in the organization. He was not noticeable at first, but gradually came to the fore. His code name was 'Rye Whiskey'. He was finally able to complete missions with the organization's cadre, the man known as Gin."

James said this, seeming to be very impressed with Akai Shuichi's ability:

"As long as we can catch this man, we can follow the clues and find out the leader behind him. That's what we FBI thought at the time, so we lurked in the place where the two of them were going..."

At this point, James' tone seemed a little regretful:

"In the end, they didn't come. We waited until dawn but still they didn't come..."

"Has he been exposed? He is the FBI..."

Hearing this, Conan had a vague understanding of what had happened.

"Yes. I heard that Akai's ambush failed due to the mistake of the investigators who ambushed him in advance."

Judy said so.

"But... this happened two years ago, right? Then why did his girlfriend become... in the last few months..."

Conan still had some doubts.

"It is said that her sister is a very important figure in the organization, so the organization did not immediately take action against his girlfriend after Akai escaped... Akai should have expected this, so he never contacted her again after leaving..."

Judy said this, and James beside her added:

"But even if they wanted to contact her, she and her sister were immediately transferred away afterwards, and there was no way to contact them... The organization would not just ignore a woman who led the FBI in and could still keep in touch. So, the furious organization told her that as long as she completed a certain task, she and her sister would be able to leave the organization...

"Of course, if the conditions fail, she and her sister will die.

"The organization's original intention should have been to get rid of her under the pretext of mission failure. As for her sister, she was still valuable to the organization, so they probably wouldn't have taken action right away. But the organization didn't expect that she would successfully complete the mission, but was still killed for no reason..."

——"So, what's his girlfriend's name?!"

Although he had basically guessed who James and the others were talking about, Conan wanted to confirm the last key point 100% -

"My real name is Miyano Akemi, and my pseudonym is Hirota Masami. I'm sure I remember this correctly..."

James said this, and after Conan was completely sure of his guess, he asked very seriously:

"How do you know so much? Didn't you say that we haven't been in touch since two years ago?"

Conan felt very nervous and even felt lucky that he had let Ai and the doctor go back first. Otherwise, this kind of thing...

——No, wait!

Shuichi Akai's departure caused Ai and her sister to no longer be trusted by the organization, which should be the key reason why Ai's sister wanted to leave the organization. In other words, it can be said that Shuichi Akai indirectly killed Ai's sister, and they have not had any contact for at least two years.

But what about the FBI’s previous arrest of Vodka?

Shuichi Akai arranged this arrest on the ghost ship, but at the same time, Hattori was sure that it was on that ship that Ai had restored her original appearance and appeared there -

Between the two, will... (End of this chapter)
