I'm in Detective Conan, and the system has appointed Batman.

Chapter 430: The Outcome of the Treatment of Curaçao

"The investigation here is almost complete."

"Ah, is it about time to wrap up? That Pramia is really troublesome. Although he's a mercenary who gets paid to do things, his vengefulness is just as strong when he encounters obstacles..."

Vermouth rubbed her forehead, looking somewhat troubled.

She glanced at the TV program next to her, which was broadcasting live from the announcement event for the Cocoon game. Conan was being interviewed by reporters. Just by noticing Conan's appearance, a look of doubt appeared in her eyes.

A cool breeze blew gently through the window, while Calvados wiped the barrel of his sniper rifle and communicated from the rooftop.

"It seems Commander Lei is having some trouble. Do we need to go help him?"

—Riesling, a codenamed member of the Black Organization dispatched to the Berlin area.
Vermouth and Calvados were there to help Commander Ryssaloniki complete his mission, but Commander Ryssaloniki actually ran into trouble on his way back after achieving his objective. What a low character of him.

Vermouth had some doubts about how this guy had passed the test of the codenamed member.
Such people are usually sent to Sherry's lab to be test subjects for APTX-4869, right?
"Sometimes, women need their own private space."

"A gentleman isn't needed to be a meticulous nanny, is he?"

Vermouth answered Calvados's question softly through the earpiece.

She rested her chin on her hand, her gaze fixed on the television program in front of her. She briefly considered whether she should conceal her identity and make another trip to Tokyo—as that person's closest code name member.

There are many things about the Black Organization that cannot be hidden from her eyes and ears.

This includes Curaçao, who remembered a secret she shouldn't have known. She originally planned to kill Curaçao to protect the secret, but Rum took her away and is now rising higher and higher, becoming Rum's second-in-command.

Curaçao is currently still in Tokyo carrying out a mission related to the Pacific Buoy Project.

By all accounts, this is a high-threat target that needs to be eliminated, right?
That person disliked the Pacific Buoy Project and also disliked the rum that might use it to find him. Therefore, he actually wanted to destroy the Pacific Buoy Project.

Curaçao is not only stealing lists related to Pacific buoys, but he will also likely be sent to escort Binga out of the country later...

"Calvados, will you come back to Tokyo with me?"

Vermouth said softly.

Once Curaçao reports the stolen list to the organization, her value will be completely exhausted, and she can then eliminate her to prevent future trouble.

In fact, if Curaçao were killed in Beika Town, no one would suspect that it was done by one of their own.

After all, Beika Town has a simple and honest folk culture. If someone sets up a killing trap but accidentally kills Curaçao just like they accidentally killed Tequila, that would be quite normal, right?
Now that Gin is also in Tokyo, I believe he would be happy to join in.

"The Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department's police cars have moved, bro."

The sound of vodka rang out.

They've been waiting here for people to come.

A qualified hunter needs to be patient enough, because prey can appear in front of them at any time. If the prey suddenly jumps out while they are putting away their guns, it would be a very unfortunate situation.

Therefore, Gin and Vodka could only leave after the Cocoon game announcement event.

Now that the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department's police cars are preparing to leave, it means that there is no longer a need for police to maintain order at the Cocoon Games press conference. In other words, the Cocoon Games press conference is about to end.

If things go as expected, Sonoko Suzuki, who has an almost identical hairstyle to Sherry, will also be making her appearance soon. Those guys who attacked him and spoiled his fun should also show up.

Gin gave his sniper rifle one last check.

His eyes narrowed slightly as he waited for his target to appear.

A true hunter only needs one shot to kill his prey.

—As for the situation in Curaçao and Ireland, he couldn't be bothered to care.

Anyway, what Curaçao took out from the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department wouldn't be anything important. Even if it were something really important, like a list of Japanese public security agents infiltrating the organization, it wouldn't matter.

Gin is upright and has nothing to fear from a crooked shadow.

Would his name even be on that list? That would be utterly ridiculous. He just finished his security clearance not long ago, and the organization can prove his innocence. Under these circumstances, any information claiming that he is an undercover agent is absolutely slander!
However, if the list is related to rye whiskey, he might as well lend a hand.

That rye whiskey guy... we should just get rid of him as soon as he shows his face.

"The time is almost up."

Shuichi Akai said in a low voice,

Through his sniper scope, he could see that the mysterious man in the suit and cane was already preparing to leave, and the departure of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department police car further confirmed that his guess was correct.

The Cocoon Games announcement event should be coming to an end soon.
If the snipers were indeed hired by the Mud Ginseng Club to assassinate Sonoko Suzuki and lure out Batman, then it's time for the three snipers to prepare to act in this situation.

In Shuichi Akai's headphones, the voice of Jodie Starling, who was near the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department, came through.

"The situation is a little bad."

"The item stolen from the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department this time is very important, extremely important, so much so that the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department has mobilized an unprecedentedly large number of police forces for the search. It's really strange. What did the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department lose that made them so panicked?"

"Has the Japanese Public Security Bureau infiltrated the Black Organization's spy list?"

—Maybe.

Shuichi Akai did not answer.

He was slightly puzzled by this, but the list lost by the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department should have nothing to do with the FBI. Otherwise, by tomorrow, without the FBI needing to investigate, the Japanese authorities would have already groveled and revealed everything.

Judy was saying something else over the earphones.
However, he didn't listen anymore because his feelings for Judy were somewhat complicated. After all, she was his ex-girlfriend, and Judy's incessant chatter would affect his mood. Therefore, he ended the call directly.

The distant scenery had already appeared in the scope of the sniper rifle.

Timothy Hunt, one of the world's few ace snipers capable of striking beyond visual range.

He would most likely escape an ambush by a sniper, but unfortunately, he was also an ace sniper who had mastered beyond-visual-range sniping techniques.

Therefore, once the shot is fired, the ace will fall.
