Daily Spy Life in the Detective Conan World

Chapter 119 The Legendary Boss
The name is Baijiu Pharmaceutical.

It first appeared thirty years ago.

The Miyano couple worked at this company thirty years ago.

However, this company seems to be just an ordinary pharmaceutical company, and has no connection with the winery.

Logically, this pharmaceutical company should have gone bankrupt by now.

Did the distillery acquire it when it went bankrupt?

That's a possibility.

Xia Chuan had previously thought that the pharmaceutical company had gone bankrupt, so he didn't ask Frank to investigate. He didn't expect that the company was still around.

mistake.

However, it's not a big problem. Gin himself explained it, and he even made three phone calls, as if afraid that the other party wouldn't know.

Xia Chuan silently expressed his gratitude, and then cursed him again.

It's a good thing, but the timing is just wrong.

What a pity about my first date. I was hoping it would go perfectly the first time, but now the atmosphere is completely ruined.

After the candlelight dinner, Xia Chuan hurriedly took Joel to his house.

If there's a meeting at the distillery, I definitely won't be home tonight. I can't leave Anya alone at home, can I?
The security situation in Mihua is actually not bad, with police officers patrolling every night, but the murderer brothers are all disregarding life and death and are not afraid at all.

So Joel naturally stayed.

"The lighting is poor at night, please drive carefully!"

Joel held Anya and waved.

Xia Chuan nodded and left, glancing at the two people in the rearview mirror several times before he did.

This scene is quite heartwarming, like a wife seeing her husband off with her child.

Well.
It's a bit unlucky, but that's the gist of it.

At midnight, Xia Chuan arrived at Baijiu Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. on time.

The identity verification system here is similar to that of a cocktail bar. After completing all the verification procedures, Xia Chuan entered the second basement level of Baijiu Pharmaceutical.

This place is ostensibly a parking lot, but it has been secretly converted into a drug research and development center by the winery.

The basement is larger than the publicly visible Baijiu Pharmaceutical Factory, suggesting that the nearby land has been excavated by the winery.

Preliminary estimates suggest there are at least thirty researchers here.

Xia Chuan, dressed in a black suit, stood out from the group of people in white coats, looking like a crane among chickens.

By randomly choosing someone, Natsukawa was able to confirm Gin's location.

In the conference room.

"Tequila, where did you go tonight?"

As soon as Xia Chuan entered the conference room, Gin asked a cold question, his eyes fixed on Xia Chuan, as if he would kill her if he didn't get a satisfactory answer.

Xia Chuan found it strange that Gin was suddenly so angry. Shouldn't he usually keep quiet and act profound at this time?

However, when you're under someone's roof, you have to bow your head. Now that I'm the younger brother, I have to act like one. So, I'll answer honestly.

"I still have some stock on hand, and if someone wants it, I certainly won't refuse. The place I arranged with the other party wasn't a good place to answer the phone, and I was planning to call back after the transaction was completed, but I didn't expect Vodka's phone to keep ringing."

What happened? Why is everyone here? Has the cocktail bar been discovered?

Xia Chuan asked with a light laugh, but no one smiled; everyone's face was grim.

The group consisted of Gin, Vodka, Chianti, Cohen, Pisco, and himself, who played Tequila, making a total of six people.

If Ireland hadn't gone abroad to recuperate, he would probably be here right now.

Gin remained silent, not in the mood to answer Natsukawa's question.

Xia Chuan looked at the vodka, and at that moment the vodka became noticeable.

"Our base in Kamogawa City, Chiba Prefecture, was raided."

Vodka's tone was very heavy, and he spoke through gritted teeth, as if he were being attacked by his mother.

"Who did this? That base should be very well hidden; it shouldn't have been discovered, right?"

Xia Chuan suddenly realized what this was all about.

However, judging by the time, it has been quite some time since I handed the message over to the IRS.

Taking action at this time was expected; the only question is whether the IRS acted on its own or in conjunction with the Japanese.

However, a collaboration with Japan is more likely.

After all, this is Japanese territory. It's impossible to hide a large-scale armed operation from the police when it's on someone else's turf.

It's better to distribute the benefits upfront than to create trouble later. Even if it's your own backyard, you can't just trample on the lawn; you have to give the Japanese some face.

"I don't know, our undercover agents are investigating, but what is certain is that the Japanese Public Security Bureau was involved in this operation!"

After a long silence, Pisco finally spoke up and asked, "Can you be sure they discovered our organization? Could it be that they found clues about the powder production process, which led them to that base?"

I remember that a lot of raw materials at that base were just dumped haphazardly. I told you long ago that this would cause problems sooner or later, but you wouldn't believe me.

Piske was not upset at all; in fact, he was very happy.

Compared to car companies that are only temporarily unable to come up with the money, the closure of the Kamogawa base is equivalent to completely losing a means of making money.

On one hand, they can withdraw their money after a while, but on the other hand, they not only can't get the money, but they also lost a lot of money because the base was shut down.

Vodka glanced at his older brother, and seeing that the latter had no intention of speaking, continued to act as the spokesperson:
"The operation was very sudden. The base was raided last night, and my brother only received the news this evening. The other side's methods of blocking information were very clever; no alarms were issued throughout the entire base."

This shows that the other party must have been watching the Kamo River base for a long time, and only made their move last night.

The police's methods for obtaining the information are currently unknown, and the possibility of an internal mole within the base cannot be ruled out.

"Is it possible that there's a mole not in the base, but among the organization's members?" Xia Chuan muttered to himself.

"What do you mean?"

Gin glanced sideways at Natsukawa, the sharp glint in his eyes sending chills down one's spine.

"I'm talking about Pisco. In Japan, besides his car company, the only source of continuous funding is the Kamo River base."

With the car company unable to come up with the funds, the Kamogawa base became especially important.

To protect their positions, some people might do something outrageous.

Xia Chuan's sarcastic remarks essentially meant:
The car company couldn't afford the organizational funding, but the Kamogawa base could.

This would likely affect Pisco's position within the organization, especially since Gin had long intended to oust him. Therefore, Pisco colluded with the Public Security Bureau to take down the entire Kamogawa base.

If I can't provide the funding, then forget about the Kamogawa base.

In this way, the car company's inability to pay wouldn't be too conspicuous, and Pisco could remain calm and continue to be a veteran of his brewery.

"That's bullshit!"

Pisco shouted, "I've shed blood for the organization; my sacrifices are beyond your imagination."

Xia Chuan revealed a disdainful smile and said, "Who here hasn't shed blood for the organization? Also, stop acting all high and mighty. Useless trash should just get themselves into the trash can. A huge car company like this, saying you can't come up with the funds? Ask Gin if he believes it, ask the boss if he believes it."

This guy almost caused him, Joel, and Anya to perish at sea, so Xia Chuan never hesitated to use his charm against him whenever he had the chance.

Unfortunately, it's not the right time yet, otherwise he would definitely have shot the other person dead.

A pistol had appeared in Gin's hand at some point.

Tequila's words make some sense; after he said that, Pisco becomes very suspicious.

It doesn't really matter, anyway, he's so old, there's no point in keeping him alive, so it's better to kill him as soon as possible.

This is Gin's idea: they don't want Pisco to live off the distillery's pension.

The dark muzzle of the gun was pointed at Pisk's forehead.

"Gin, put the gun down!"

Mechanical and electronic sounds came from all directions.

After the screen in the conference room flickered, a crow logo appeared, and everyone knew what it represented.

Even Xia Chuan reacted immediately.

The legendary boss, Karasuma Renya, has always been behind the scenes and has never appeared!
Gin put down his pistol, turned to look at the screen, and waited quietly for the leader to speak.

“Pisco, as you can see, Japan is currently facing a funding shortage. The foreign funds have other uses, and there are no extra funds available to allocate to Japan.”

So you should understand what I mean. Shirley's research cannot stop; other research cannot stop; funding cannot stop.

You're a veteran of the organization, you should know very well what I'm after. Some things can wait, but some things can't.

"There's one more thing." The voice paused for a long time, and there was a faint whooshing sound from the other end.

Natsukawa suspected that Karasuma Renya was panting. After all, he was 140 years old, and it was normal for him to be out of breath after talking for so long.

"You must understand that everything you have at your current level is a gift from the organization."

If you have any thoughts of resistance, first consider whether you have the ability. You've been with me for so many years, I think you should understand these things very well.

"The Kamo River base has been destroyed. Now the burden on your shoulders is much heavier. You can be more aggressive in your methods of accumulating wealth. If there's anything you can't handle, ask Gin for help."

"I understand, my lord."
