Daily Spy Life in the Detective Conan World

Chapter 399 The Gossip of Vodka
Getting the password from Hara Yoshiaki's side is not a problem at all. Gin believes that Tequila can get the password after the remaining two make contact.

You can complete the transaction by logging into your account through the Twin Towers skyscraper's main control center.

The operation is considered successful if money is transferred to front-glove accounts around the world via special software and then flows back to the organization's secret accounts.

The Japanese Public Security Bureau is probably overwhelmed with work related to the FBI and CIA right now, so this is a great opportunity.

Dealing with only the Metropolitan Police Department was incredibly easy; he was confident Tequila could handle it.

Natsukawa nodded slightly, "I'll find an opportunity to go to Nishitama City in the next couple of days to get to know Tokiwa Okiyoshi."

"If you have any questions, you can contact Yuan Jiaming. He should be able to provide you with a lot of help."

"okay."

The Countdown to Heaven movie is a classic and one of Natsukawa's favorite movies. He remembers that Hara Yoshiaki should have betrayed the organization.

It seems like it hasn't happened yet?

Natsukawa didn't directly ask Gin; he planned to investigate on his own.

He suddenly remembered that Gin had told Vodka about the listening system. He hadn't thought much about it at the time, but now that he recalled it, he remembered that Ai Haibara was on the phone that night and when asked, she lied and said she was calling Joel.

Now, considering the storyline in Nishitama City, it should be a call to Miyano Akemi's voicemail.

It's a bit of a mouthful, but that's how it is.

After leaving the conference room, Xia Chuan and Vodka walked side by side.

He took a medicine bottle out of his pocket and handed it to him: "I heard you were attacked by Shuichi Akai's stun grenade yesterday?"

Vodka blushed slightly, but almost everyone had seen it, and he couldn't hide it anymore.

"Eye drops?"

Vodka was slightly taken aback when he took the medicine bottle. Tequila was actually giving him eye drops?
What does it mean? Is he using the opportunity of giving away eye drops to mock himself and put eye drops on his own face?
"Even though you're wearing sunglasses, the intensity of the stun grenade's light is still terrifying. This is eye drops I bought through special channels. It's very effective against this kind of strong light stimulation. Even after using pupil dilators to look at the sun, this eye drops can help you recover quickly."

"so smart?"

Vodka was somewhat incredulous.

Then I started to feel moved.

He actually suspected that tequila was trying to poison his mind—that's really unacceptable!

And yesterday, that sense of crisis seems ridiculous now. We were all working under the eldest brother, so we should address each other as brothers!

Like the Oath of the Peach Garden, the eldest brother, Gin, arrived first, so he is the second brother, and the third brother is Tequila.

In no time, he had already sorted out the seniority.

"By the way, let me ask you something."

"Go ahead and say it, we're brothers!" Vodka patted his chest. "I'll tell you everything I know!"

Xia Chuan scratched his head in confusion. He had only given Vodka some eye drops, yet Vodka was so moved.
Professor Agasa has a ton of these things; they're practically worthless.

"What happened after I left yesterday? Why did Shuichi Akai leave in such a hurry? Given the grudge between him and my older brother, he should have at least beaten the dog to a pulp, right?"

Vodka was a little annoyed by Xia Chuan's description of him as having a "dog's head," but since they were buddies, he didn't hold it against him and explained:
"They were going to continue fighting, but Shuichi Akai seemed to hear something in his earpiece. I guess the situation here was too big, and the FBI leadership couldn't handle it and ordered a retreat."

Vodka was quite pleased with himself when he mentioned this, guessing that it was probably something the garrison in Yokosuka had said.

He shot down one of the Cobras, which was a significant loss for the garrison. It's likely that the FBI leadership couldn't handle the pressure on Shuichi Akai. "It's a pity he ran too fast, otherwise he would definitely have died by my gun."

"For example, the female agent who was with him was hit by the grenade I threw, and her injuries seem to be quite serious. This might be part of the reason."

"So that's it."

Xia Chuan understood.

Regarding the garrison, everyone understands the saying, "When a general is in the field, he may not obey orders from the troops." It's highly unlikely that Hideki Akai will withdraw just because the garrison says something.

It's probably also related to Judy's injury.

After all, he was someone she had been romantically involved with for many years.
"Forget it, let's not talk about such unpleasant things. I have some inside information, do you want to hear it?"

Vodka nudged Xia Chuan in the chest, looking on with a gossipy expression. "Come on, have a couple of drinks with me, and I'll tell you the news."

"Was this arranged by my older brother? He didn't tell me. Is it inappropriate for you to tell me now?"

Xia Chuan feigned hesitation, but his arm was casually draped over Vodka's shoulder, as if he was about to ask which way they were going.

He was very envious of the gossip about vodka.

The two arrived at their usual spot, and soon members of the outer perimeter brought up what Vodka had requested.

"Don't worry, you'll find out about this sooner or later anyway. It was something we were meant to do together."

"What?" Xia Chuan filled the vodka bottle, and after the other person finished his act of drinking his own vodka, he asked, "Why didn't you say so earlier, brother?"

"The 10 billion from Changpan Group is very important. I don't want you to be distracted. I should tell you after this matter is over."

Vodka dismissed the outer members and approached them, saying, "It's about the promotion of the outer members."

Upon hearing this news, Xia Chuan's heart stirred slightly. The promotion of peripheral members meant that new codename members would appear.

It seems that Louis's death has earned Gin's complete trust in him, and he has even entrusted him with such an important matter, which is a pleasant surprise.

"I will collect information on suitable peripheral members in the next few days, and then hand it over to the boss for decision. We will probably confirm three names, and then we will conduct assessments. Ultimately, only one peripheral member will be able to get a code name."

This is the current level of difficulty for promotion; it's mainly because Gin has been scared off.

Even setting aside Shuichi Akai, he still wasn't sure whether there were any spies left within the Japanese branch.

Besides the information revealed by Pisco, the collapse of the US branch was also partly due to the presence of spies within the branch at the time. Such matters must be handled with caution, as there are too many red teams and spies are difficult to guard against.

Xia Chuan simply nodded, then occasionally offered a drink, getting Vodka drunk before he could even react.

As for the doctor saying I shouldn't drink alcohol, what's the big deal?

If Vodka really died from drinking, would this still be the world of Detective Conan?
“Right now, Big Brother is indeed short-handed, especially after Chianti’s death, leaving only Cohen among the sniper duo.”

"You know what!" Vodka's face flushed, and his lips curled into an exaggerated smile as he said cheekily, "I heard that Chianti died, and Cohen actually cried!"

"My God, I really didn't expect that the two of them would develop feelings for each other after working together for so long. I heard that they got completely drunk today, and their faces turned purple. If the outer members hadn't discovered them in time, I guess our boss would have lost another key member."

This kind of gossip seems quite useful. After hearing it, Xia Chuan even wanted to ask where Chianti was buried, so he could provide this information to Yuri later.

Misa Takeda's grave has already been dug up, so what's one more Chianti?
