The sixth man of Conan's police academy

Chapter 224 He can’t laugh anyway
There is a red brick building near Shinko 2-chome, Yokohama City, Kanagawa Prefecture. This was the newly established base of the organization during the year when Ritsu Sasashima lived in Zurich, and it is currently the most important place in Japan.

In other words, this is the safe house of the organization and a place where only Codename members can come.

Gin's call was not answered, and the other party did not complain, because Gin knew in his heart that Ogier was probably playing the role of a policeman at the crime scene.

Taking a taxi back to the underground parking garage of the apartment, Ritsu Sasashima sat astride the Kawasaki Ninja H2R, which he had not ridden for a while. Being a good and law-abiding young man, he did not forget to wear a motorcycle helmet and adjusted the navigation route on his mobile phone. After that, quickly record it in my mind and slowly release the clutch handle to rush towards the destination.

Japan is very small. The drive from Tokyo to Yokohama only takes about 10 to [-] minutes. If you take transportation such as JR, it only takes about half an hour.

The motorcycle parked directly in the parking lot on the north side of the red brick building. When he saw those familiar cars, Sasashima Ritsu took off his helmet and was surprised. He didn't expect there to be so many people today.

He took out his ID card from his pocket and put it in the electronic card slot. An emotionless mechanical sound sounded. After a series of scans, he finally had to enter a password to pass. Such careful handwriting was definitely Gin's masterpiece.

The passage at the entrance is very narrow, and the steel-film cement wall is also covered with strange graffiti, which is obviously not the work of a master.The lights are very dim, which is very unfriendly to people with night blindness. Fortunately, Sasashima Ritsu is not.

Pushing open the heavy soundproof door, the strong drum beat made him wonder if he was in the wrong place.

Industrial style decoration style, mysterious and cold black with hesitant gray.There is even a barbed wire fence in the basic area. The bar made of lacquered wood and gray and white bricks has a retro style. The people who designed this place have good taste.

Under the dim light, he looked towards the disc player, and when he saw the familiar orange, he felt that the choice of background music was not surprising.

If she doesn't play rock and roll, she's already pretty good.

Chianti, who was acting as a DJ in a decent manner, caught a glimpse of a new person in the safe house. Thinking of the reason why Gin had summoned them here today, he stopped what he was doing, jumped off the high platform, and looked at this person and Gin. The head of the Japanese branch who is on equal footing.

That's right, there are two people in charge in Japan now. Besides Gin, it's the guy in front of him codenamed Ogier.If I remember correctly, he was one of that gentleman's cronies and was usually active in Europe.

Mizuno Reina, who was sitting in the booth area with a glass of red wine, also noticed Ogier walking in. She subconsciously frowned slightly and observed the young man who was wearing white and completely different from the organization's dressing habits.

His white hair is parted to the side, his eyes are slightly drooped, his nose is straight, and there is a terrifying cross scar under his left eye.Perhaps noticing the gaze she was giving him, he slowly raised his eyes with a laziness, like a snow leopard waiting for its prey to come to him.

That's right, not a cat...but a leopard.

With just a glance, Rena Mizumu felt an invisible pressure coming towards her, and the alarm bells in her heart sounded.This high-level organization named Ogier may be a more terrifying figure than Gin.

"Are you Augier? I am Chianti, please give me your advice."

Ritsu Sasashima looked sideways, and the crazy energy in his body had faded a lot. It seemed that it wasn't just him who had changed a lot in this year.

When someone he met for the first time could actually use honorifics, he almost wondered if this Chianti was a fake.

"Well, there will be opportunities to cooperate in the future."

Ritsu Sasashima walked towards the bar. His back was turned to his gin and he was sipping the wine in the glass. When he noticed someone sitting next to him, he said slowly: "You're here."

"Ah."

Apart from Vodka, the only person willing to sit next to him was Ogier, so he knew it without even looking.

Sitting opposite Reina Mizuna, Rei Futani looked at all this with a calm expression. It seemed that Ogier and Gin had a pretty good relationship, and could even be called familiar.

"Get what you want to drink."

"I don't have Vodka to drive me. I have to ride a motorcycle back, so I can forget about drinking."

"Oh, I can lend him to you."

Sitting aside, Vodka expressed his shame. Brother, don't describe me like a driver. I'm still very capable, okay?

Sasashima Ritsu's expression became strange. He raised his eyebrows and looked at Gin meaningfully, and then said words that made the two people beside him fall into silence.

"Don't you have any special hobbies? Motorcycle driving... It's scary just to imagine it."

The burly Vodka sat in the front seat, and the silver-haired Gin sat in the back seat. To ensure their own safety, the people in the back seat could only hold the waist of the front seat.

Sasashima Ritsu couldn't help but shudder when he thought about this, and the hand that poured him lemonade trembled. Having too much imagination is not a good thing.

"..."

After a moment of silence, Gin smiled and said, "You have really changed a lot, Augier."

"Maybe this is my nature?" Ritsu Sasashima shrugged. No one else could hear the conversation anyway, otherwise he would still have to maintain Ogier's sense of mystery. What is now revealed to Gin is more like Onizawa Takashi.

"Oh, only you know this."

"Yes."

There was the sound of footsteps behind him, and the frequency of the steps made it easy to identify who it was, and who made him know him too well.Ritsu Sasashima added a few pieces of crushed ice to the lemonade, and a familiar voice sounded behind him.

"Mr. Augier, we meet again. Do you still remember me?"

Wearing a bourbon mask, Rei Fukiya is completely different from his usual demeanor. He is holding a glass of Hemingway Dequiry cocktail in his hand.No wonder I didn't see RX-7. It turned out that he was planning to drink here.

Ling still hasn't gotten rid of his habit. The salary he earned from the police can be said to be very economical. He still remembers this answer when he asked him before.

——"Those are the taxes that the people have worked hard to pay, so naturally they have to live frugally!"

Facing the organization, it was a completely different face.It can be said to be No. 1 for eating and drinking. Speaking of this, a man wearing a black wool cap and long black hair comes to mind...

Tsk, my mood instantly became unpleasant.

"Of course I remember you, Bourbon."

"That's really my honor." Rei Furuya's eyes fell on the glass of lemonade with ice. He pretended to be surprised and said: "Mr. Augier, doesn't he drink?"

"Personally, I prefer to abide by traffic rules and regulations, don't drink and drive, and don't drink while driving."

A good person who abides by the law. Jiang Guling smiled coldly in his heart, but still maintained the face of a good gentleman and said with a smile: "You are right, then I toast you. I hope we have the opportunity to cooperate in the future."

"There will be a chance."

Gin silently drank the Bloody Mary in front of him, and he didn't know what he was thinking of. He was suddenly in a good mood and raised the corners of his mouth to reveal a rare happy smile.

The little eyes under the vodka sunglasses narrowed in confusion. Did the elder brother think of something fun?

"Then I'll excuse you. There is still an intelligence job that has not been completed."

"Okay, see you later."

Without watching Rei Fukiya leave, Ritsu Sasashima stared at the half-drunk ice lemonade in front of him and asked, "What are you laughing at...Gin."

"Just thinking that you spent some time together."

It's a really weird joke, but it's actually pretty funny if you think about it carefully.

They had been together for a while, but now they were strangers, and even their statuses were completely different.

Ritsu Sasashima picked up the ice pick and started chipping away at the frozen solid ice cubes in the bucket. He couldn't help but laugh when he thought about the days when he lived as Macallan in the organization.

Gin, if you knew that he and I had another past that you hated the most, would you still be able to laugh?

However, that is all in the past tense.

Anyway, he couldn't laugh.
