Daily Spy Life in the Detective Conan World

Chapter 432 The USB drive is very important!
"Inspector Megure will be here in about five minutes!" The helicopter pilot finally found a chance to speak.

After explaining, he nervously tried to dissuade him: "Instructor Joel, don't be impulsive. Let's wait a bit. The main force should arrive soon. More people means better coordination and we won't alert them."

The snake must have been alerted, but the driver was now more afraid that Joel would go up alone.

If he hadn't had to fly the plane, he definitely would have stopped Joel from jumping out.

God knows that Joel would jump from one helicopter to another, and actually do it.

Honestly, it was so shocking. I've never seen anything like this before, except in American blockbusters!

And it has to be a science fiction film.

If I tell other people this, they probably won't believe me, not even Miyamoto Yumi, who has a big mouth.

Shocked!

He once dreamed of one day surpassing Instructor Yor in combat skills and then turning the tables on him, but now he can forget about it.

Learning "surgical tactics" would probably be simpler.

"Time is running out."

Joel patted Conan's head: "You hide over there, I'll go check the situation. These men in black robes are tightening their defenses, they're probably trying to escape. If we don't act soon, we might miss our chance."

Of course, that's not what Joel was thinking, and his main purpose wasn't for the sake of these criminals.

My main concern is Xia Chuan.

Conan said he didn't see it, but Ai Haibara said with certainty that Natsukawa came, so he must have come; it's just that Conan didn't notice.

The man in black robes had ample firepower, and she had just seen members of the Black Organization, so she couldn't help but worry.

Conan did not stop Joel from leaving.

Aunt Joel's abilities are undeniable; she can fall from a great height and be completely unharmed. Now, he's more worried about the Black Organization and the USB drive theft organization.

"correct!"

He probably can't get involved with Joel's side, so he might as well take this opportunity to look for the USB drive.

The Black Robe organization went to great lengths to blow up skyscrapers, expose Oki Iwamatsu, and even deployed helicopters and a large number of people to meet him.

As for Gin, the person who looked somewhat like Tequila just now said that this was a trap.

Given his understanding of Gin, it's impossible that he wouldn't have noticed something amiss. Yet, Gin still came, bringing only vodka and tequila, which speaks volumes.

USB flash drive, very important!

The three of them, Snake, probably wouldn't have carried the USB drive with them; it's likely stored in their room.

Based on the positions of the three codenamed members of the Black Robe Organization, and considering that he had stayed in this area a few days ago, Conan roughly pinpointed where the USB drive should be.

As the situation developed, urgent sirens blared throughout the mountains and forests.

A red light flashed, and Inspector Megure hurriedly spoke into the walkie-talkie: "You must stop Instructor Joel. Even if she's very capable, we can't be so reckless. What am I going to tell Brother Natsukawa if something happens?"

Xia Chuan had just helped him a lot; if he couldn't even protect someone's girlfriend, he wouldn't deserve to be called an older brother.

"I'm afraid it's too late."

The driver sighed, rubbing his forehead. Joel was not someone he could stop with a single word.

"Inspector Megure, you'd better hurry up and get here. There are heavy casualties here, and even a helicopter has crashed. Both sides fighting are not simple. I just saw Representative Oki Iwamatsu."

"How is the councilor?" Inspector Megure pressed, adding, "Do everything you can to ensure the councilor's safety!"

"Uh"

The driver recalled the scene he had just witnessed.

Judging from the legislator's position, he doesn't seem to have been kidnapped.

They seem more like kidnappers.

The pilot did not see the subsequent footage and was unaware that Oki Iwamatsu had died. To prevent the helicopter from being affected, he hovered at a relatively far distance.

This is also what Instructor Joel meant.

"Inspector Megure, the senator is a bad guy! I just saw it! He's in cahoots with the bad guys!"

Anya gripped her headset and loudly expressed her opinions. Others might not know, but she was a clever little devil who could hear what was on someone's mind; no one could hide their identity from her.

Anya

Inspector Megure's face darkened, but he swallowed the words of abuse that were on the tip of his tongue. The other person was just a first-grade elementary school student, and Natsukawa's precious daughter; he couldn't scold her.

He looked up and gave the order to speed up; he didn't have much time left.

Our attention returns to the main battlefield.

Snake and Lanternfish gathered all the remaining men together.

This time, there was no conversation. They opened fire directly across the guesthouse, showing no mercy and wishing they could turn Xia Chuan and the other two into mincemeat.

However, there were many peripheral members, and their marksmanship was average. Although the codenamed member was an assassin, he was no match for Gin and his two companions and could only barely restrict their retreat.

Gin sneered, pulled out a grenade, and threw it out.

Because the men in black robes were all gathered together, the grenade was able to achieve 200% effectiveness.

A thunderclap suddenly appeared, creating a large crater. Seven or eight men in black robes were blasted into a daze, and some of the unlucky ones were reduced to pieces before they could even utter a sound.

This is not over yet!

There's also a Molotov cocktail!

While the Molotov cocktail wasn't as effective as a hand grenade, it could at least separate the man in the black robes from them.

Gin lit the Molotov cocktail and threw it at the guesthouse in the middle.

In summer, the wooden guesthouses are a perfect complement to the incendiary bombs.

The two sides were instantly separated.

"The person has been killed, now hurry up and leave."

Xia Chuan was numb. Through the gaps in the flames, he could already see Joel approaching from a distance.

It's less than 100 meters behind the zoo.

Snake was unaware of the impending disaster and remained fearless in the face of the flames.

This is their territory, and their familiarity with the architectural layout is far beyond what Gin can match.

As the people from the zoo dispersed, Gin instantly realized that there might be hidden paths he didn't know about, and if he didn't respond soon, he might be surrounded again.

"Tequila!"

Gin reached out to Natsukawa and beckoned him.

"???"

Xia Chuan pointed to himself, looking puzzled, and asked, "What?"

What does that mean? I really don't understand.

"A grenade!"

Tequila always carries a grenade when she goes out, and Gin doesn't think this time will be any different.

If it weren't for the tequila grenade, he probably wouldn't have been able to get along with Shuichi Akai last time.

Xia Chuan looked down at his suit, then shrugged and said, "Because I was pretending to be a guest, I didn't bring any grenades."

That's obviously not true.

Unless he doesn't have any at home, Xia Chuan always carries a few grenades with him when he's on a mission for the distillery.

The reason he didn't is because he threw away the tequila case once when he was at the Twin Towers skyscraper, along with the grenade.

After all, he will be facing Conan, Ai Haibara, and Inspector Megure later on. As a special investigator for the foreign tax bureau, having a pistol can be explained, but having a grenade is hard to explain.

At least not every country's tax authorities have their own arsenal like the IRS.

At least not in Japan.
