Daily Spy Life in the Detective Conan World

Chapter 429 Who is surrounded by whom?

As the time goes.

Light spots gradually appeared in the quiet forest sky.

The branches of trees in the distance were bent by the wind caused by the propellers turning.

Snake looked up, excitedly rolled up his sleeves, and waited for the airdrop crate!

Nishitama City, one of the major bases of the zoo, has a secret base deep in the mountains.

Helicopters, guns, and explosives were all used for personnel training there.

Because of the presence of the large pine tree, it remained undiscovered for several years. This guesthouse, serving as a forward outpost, operated for several years and became a popular spot for online influencers.

Now, everything has changed because of Gin.

It would be difficult for Oki Iwamatsu to return to Nishitama City as a councilor unless he was not afraid of being assassinated by Gin.

Even without Gin taking any action, the Metropolitan Police Department will likely discover the problems at this hideout very soon.

Even bases deep in the mountains may need to be relocated.

"Hey, what's he doing? Why hasn't he brought me the grenade yet? Doesn't he know we'll be doing an emergency evacuation soon?"

Snake's right hand, which had been raised for a long time, was starting to go numb. The helicopter above was still circling, not dropping any airdrops, and hadn't even passed directly above him; it had been hovering at the edge of the area.

"Oh no!"

A man in a black robe hung up the phone and rushed over: "Boss, this helicopter isn't ours!"

"What?"×3
Even the lanternfish, which never showed any emotion, had its expression contorted!
They actually let an unfamiliar helicopter hover overhead for almost two minutes.

So, who exactly is it?
"However, our helicopter has arrived as well. The pilot assured you that there is no need to worry, as there is a Vulcan Gatling gun in his cockpit!"

"Why the hell didn't you say so earlier?" ×3
No sooner had the words been spoken than another helicopter arrived late, hovering in the sky and confronting the one that had appeared earlier.

"I am not wrong, right?"

Xia Chuan rubbed his eyes hard. When the first helicopter flew by, he thought he saw Anya's face.

"Impossible, Anya should still be in the Twin Towers skyscraper at this time."

Xia Chuan shook his head vigorously, tapped his earpiece, and said, "Brother, there's a suspicious helicopter overhead. We can't determine for now whether it's from the Metropolitan Police Department."

The Metropolitan Police Department's helicopters usually have a cherry blossom emblem or the words "Metropolitan Police Department" printed on them, but the one that appeared did not.

However, the absence of evidence does not completely prove that the helicopter did not belong to the Metropolitan Police Department; it only indicates that the possibility is slightly smaller.

"It can't be wrong."

Gin tossed the nail clippers into the trash can, twisted his neck and wrists, glanced at the vodka, and gave a sinister smile.

"The Metropolitan Police Department should be making their move. Tequila, find an angle to assassinate Oki Iwamatsu, and then help me and Vodka escape."

Gin pulled open his black coat and took out a set of throwing weapons.

Grenades, smoke grenades, stun grenades, and... Molotov cocktails?

"Big brother?"

Vodka wasn't surprised to find these things inside Gin's coat, but rather found the Molotov cocktail strangely familiar.

"Don't think I don't know you're hiding vodka in the car."

This is a Molotov cocktail made from vodka that Gin used while the vehicle was in motion. Vodka was focused on driving and didn't notice it.

Gin snorted, but that was all.

He was the older brother, not Vodka's mother. Since Vodka was unwilling to quit drinking, he wouldn't force him.

As the eldest brother, he has said what he needed to say; the rest is up to Vodka himself.

"hey-hey."

Vodka chuckled twice and grabbed the stun grenade and smoke grenade.

"Listen up, you people outside! You're surrounded by our organization. If you know what's good for you, drop your weapons and surrender!"

The men in black robes exchanged bewildered glances, momentarily stunned. What did this mean? Two people inside the guesthouse were surrounding twenty or thirty others outside?
What a joke! Even if you include the missing tequila, there are only three people in the distillery. Surround them?

Who is surrounded by whom?

Snake thought he had misheard, paused for a few seconds, and then chuckled, "Haven't you guys figured out the situation yet?"

Receiving no response, Snake roared again, "Gin, do you remember what happened a few months ago? You were the one who was more skilled then, but this time you've finally fallen into my trap, haven't you?"

"Huh?"×2
Noticing the strange gazes from the left and right, Snake showed no shame and put his hands on his hips, saying, "How does it feel to be surrounded? Don't even think about leaving. Just surrender obediently, and maybe I can give you a way out."

Instead of killing Gin, capturing him is actually a good option.

If they're lucky enough to brainwash Gin, that would undoubtedly add a super weapon to the organization!
Lone Wolf isn't strong enough; the boss would probably be very envious of an assassin like Gin.

No one answered him; only objects flying out of the broken window crashed to the ground with a clanging sound.

Everyone frowned and looked intently at the object on the ground.

Snake raised an eyebrow. This thing looked familiar; there should be quite a few more in the deep mountain base.

—It's a stun grenade!
It turns out that Vodka had spoken up earlier simply to confirm the location of Snake and his two companions.

"Close your eyes and cover your ears!"

Peter Ford nearly choked, kicking Snake to the ground before collapsing down and covering his ears.

When these movements occur together, they appear very synchronized and demonstrate a strong sense of teamwork.

A flash of white light appeared, followed by a persistent humming sound.

Even with my ears plugged, the piercing sound still pierced my palms, making my eardrums feel like they were about to burst.

Of course, the range of a single stun grenade is limited.

So, Vodka raised his hand and threw another smoke bomb.

The remaining grenades and incendiary bombs are of strategic importance and should not be used lightly.

At the same time, Xia Chuan fired his gun, and the men in black robes immediately panicked and hid behind the guesthouse's cover.

The howling wind, the swirling bullets, and the bewildered Snake.

At this moment, the helicopter overhead also started to move!
The door of the first arriving helicopter opened, revealing a stunningly beautiful face.

Her slender arms gripped the hatch tightly. She turned around and said something, and then an iron rod was pulled out.

"Aunt Joel! Isn't this too dangerous?"

Inside the cabin, Ai Haibara hesitated.

Joel's idea was simple: she planned to use the iron rod as a javelin and throw it at the helicopter on the other side.

The helicopter they have is a brand new one that just arrived at the Metropolitan Police Department. It's not only unmarked, but its armament is also lacking.

"Don't worry, Auntie can do it!"

Anya, hands on her hips and headphones on her head, is cosplaying as an airplane captain giving an order: "Auntie Joel, I order you to shoot down that helicopter over there. Conan must not be harmed in any way!"
Remember, we must always put the lives of the people first!

Ai Haibara rolled her eyes; she had no more words to say.

Anya shouldn't have been on the plane in the first place...

Concerned for Natsukawa and Conan's safety, she chose to contact Aunt Yor.

Upon hearing about the Twin Towers, Joel immediately hopped on a Metropolitan Police Department helicopter.

I received a call from Ai Haibara as soon as I arrived in Nishitama City.

The two had planned to sneak over, but Anya somehow discovered them and secretly followed behind Ai Haibara.

After Ai Haibara boarded the plane, she secretly clung to the landing gear and flew into the sky.

God knows where they got the guts.

In the end, it was because he was afraid of heights and shouted that Joel found him.
