Stay away from Conan.

Almost instinctively, through the binoculars, he saw the faint outline of the face of the figure in the black hood standing on the distant high-rise building. The image of that person immediately flashed into Shuichi Akai's mind—

Akemi Miyano!

Thus, the moment that figure appeared in his mind, Shuichi Akai couldn't help but tremble, surprised and somewhat at a loss.

But quickly, Shuichi Akai forcefully suppressed this inexplicable emotion that welled up from the bottom of his heart with reason and calmness.

After all, he knew very well that Akemi Miyano was dead.

If the hooded figure standing next to "Shirley" is the same person she met before, then he should be a man.

only……

Still peering into that direction through his binoculars, a bead of cold sweat trickled down Shuichi Akai's cheek; he was still somewhat uneasy.

Although rationally he knew that Miyano Akemi was dead, the feeling he had just experienced must not have been unfounded.

There must be some reason for this intuitive feeling...

Could it be that the mysterious person really has some connection with Miyano Akemi and the others?
Speaking of which, Miyano Akemi and her sisters were adopted by an organization at a young age due to their parents' connections, and their parents had already died in an accident when they were young, but...

It can't be said that their parents had no other living relatives, can it?
perhaps……

A vague thought began to form in Shuichi Akai's mind.

Meanwhile, at the top of the building that Shuichi Akai was looking at, standing next to Shiho Miyano, the figure wearing a black hood was also looking in Shuichi Akai's direction. After confirming that the other party was no longer looking in his direction, a faint smile appeared on the corner of the person's mouth under the hood, and then the person turned back to the direction of the Tokyo Tower.

Unlike the hooded figure, Shiho Miyano, standing beside him, kept nervously glancing towards the Tokyo Tower.

The sudden appearance of the armed helicopter, the strafing attack on the East Tower...

All these things that happened there, even though I was prepared, still made me worry about the safety of the people there.

At this point, as both of their gazes turned toward the East Tower, the armed helicopter, which had begun to gradually lose control and became increasingly unstable in the air, seemed to be trying to avoid a direct crash. In the end, the person piloting the armed helicopter steered it away from the East Tower and crashed in a distant direction.

Upon seeing this, the figure hidden under the hood couldn't help but turn around, preparing to leave—

“Let’s go, Shiho. Since Takato has already planned things out to this extent, there’s no danger for him.”

As he said this, the hooded figure finally revealed its true form—

Shuichi Akai's intuition was correct, for the person hiding under the black hooded cloak was none other than Akemi Miyano herself.

Hearing her sister's words, Shiho Miyano, who had also reverted to her original form for some purpose, felt somewhat relieved.

Since the armed helicopter has crashed, it clearly means that Gao Yuan's plan was basically correct. Therefore, Gao Yuan and his team should be safe.

Shiho Miyano lingered for a second look in the direction of the Tokyo Tower, then glanced at her sister, Akemi Miyano, who was also looking towards what appeared to be Shuichi Akai before finally turning and heading down from the rooftop. Seeing this, Shiho had something to say, but ultimately couldn't bring herself to say it to Akemi, and simply followed her away.

Meanwhile, after Shuichi Akai stopped looking at Shiho Miyano and the others, he also focused on the crashing armed helicopter above the Tokyo Tower. Judging by its out-of-control trajectory, he quickly gathered his belongings, preparing to leave immediately and make one last attempt—

Perhaps, if possible, we could see the helicopter that crashed!
With that thought in mind, Shuichi Akai finished packing up his belongings, putting the sniper rifle and binoculars into a bag. Then, he immediately took out his phone, found James's number, and dialed it...

……

"It's alright now."

Meanwhile, atop the East Tower, Judy, having heard the armed helicopter take off for some unknown reason, and after considering various factors, voluntarily left the safe area to observe from the edge of the observation deck. After confirming that the armed helicopter had indeed taken off and was crashing into the distance, Judy rushed to Ireland, who was lying on the edge of the window, and found him dead, riddled with bullets and lying in a pool of blood.

Although Judy didn't know Ireland, she knew from the intelligence she had that he was a member of the organization. After a brief observation, Judy noticed that the memory card he was holding had not been hit by the gunfire.

Therefore, Judy deduced that this thing must be very important, so she quietly and quickly took the memory card before the others came out, and then shouted to the others who were hiding in a safe place.

After confirming that it was safe outside, in the inner corridor, while Gao Yuan was tying up the unconscious Honjo and Itsuki, Ran looked at Kudo Shinichi with great concern and asked:

"Shinichi, are you... alright? Are you hurt?"

After confirming that even if Honjo and Itsuki woke up, they couldn't break free, Gao Yuan glanced at Mizutani Kosuke, who was also unconscious beside him. Confirming that neither of the two he had urgently pulled to the safe zone had been affected by the earlier gunfire, he then went to Kudo Shinichi's side to check on him.

“Judy…Agent? This is clearly something unusual. You…the FBI, do you know something?”

Before the sirens sounded and police reinforcements arrived at the foot of the Tokyo Tower, Takato, after checking on Shinichi Kudo's condition, approached Jodie and asked her questions, feigning confusion.

Upon seeing this, Judy thought for a moment and immediately and decisively refused:
"This matter is confidential, and I cannot disclose anything to you."

So, while it seemed like a business transaction, Judy was actually filled with doubts.

After all, no one expected things to develop this way and end up like this.

"Since that's the case, and it involves classified information... presumably it's because those people are beyond our capabilities? If so, could you please do me a favor?"

Undeterred by Judy's words, Gao Yuan seized the opportunity to ask a question.

"what?"

Judy was puzzled.

"Help me find a safer hospital!"

As Gao Yuan said this, his gaze turned towards Shinichi Kudo—

Clearly, Shinichi Kudo was injured, but at this moment, he couldn't be taken to an outside hospital for treatment... (End of Chapter)
