Gin doesn't want to work hard

My gaze lingered for a moment on the box he was carrying.

Although I can't remember the specific details.

But Kurosawa still remembers.

Tequila apparently died on a suitcase containing a bomb.

It can't be such a coincidence, right?

Kurosawa's expression turned strange.

Tequila seemed a little flustered by Kurosawa's gaze.

What does it mean that Gin is staring at him like that?

Speaking of which, Gin is dressed like this.

Could they be carrying out some important mission?

Will his appearance disrupt his plans?

Thus……

Tequila was reminded of Gin's workaholic nature.

As for himself, who was hindering him from completing his mission, Tequila seemed to already see his great-grandmother beckoning to him.

Although Gin in normal times wouldn't be this extreme.

But Tequila felt that the gin today was a bit off.

To avoid being killed by Gin for not doing his job properly.

Agave immediately explained why it was there.

"I'm here to do a mission."

He lifted the briefcase in his hand.

"It's that deal involving the list of software designers."

“I’ve spoken to Vodka.”

"He probably already told you, right?"

Did Vodka tell Kurosawa?

Of course not.

There is indeed a tradition within the organization to inform Kurosawa before undertaking a mission.

Its purpose is not limited to simple notification.

Furthermore, in the event of an accident, Kurosawa can take remedial measures immediately.

There's no way around it; model workers are always moved wherever they're needed.

However, this situation improved considerably after vodka was cultivated by Kurosawa.

The codenamed members changed from contacting Kurosawa directly to informing him about the vodka next to him.

Vodka, who knew Kurosawa's temperament well.

He will only notify Kurosawa if the mission fails.

Vodka wouldn't bother Kurosawa with a task that had just started and hadn't yet yielded results.

Therefore, Kurosawa had no idea what Tequila's mission was.

However, after listening to his explanation, Kurosawa roughly understands now.

In general, it's related to software development.

In this respect, tequila has indeed always been the one in charge.

Kurosawa nodded to indicate that he understood.

He pointed to the box that Tequila was carrying.

"Is it filled with cash?"

Agave nodded.

If that's the case, then the problem lies with the other party in the transaction.

Kurosawa asked again about the location of the transaction.

"It's a storage area for items from a game company's press conference."

"It just so happens that there are a lot of people here today, so we can blend in and make a deal without drawing too much attention."

Tequila Road.

Upon hearing the familiar location, Kurosawa was now certain that Tequila would indeed die in this deal.

After all, Conan is up there.

However, it's unrealistic to completely prevent tequila from being traded.

Let's see how things go then.

Thinking this, Kurosawa gestured for Tequila to come up with him.

However, before that...

Kurosawa sized up the agave.

Although he was dressed in all black, at least he wasn't wearing the organization's trench coat; he was just wearing a black suit.

Since that's the case, Kurosawa reached out and took off the hat from Tequila's head.

Hmm, that looks much better.

Kurosawa added his instructions.

"Remember, my name is Kurosawa Jin."

"G...Mr. Kurosawa."

Under Kurosawa's gaze, Agave awkwardly changed its pronunciation.

"Let's go."

Kurosawa nodded in satisfaction and turned to walk towards the elevator.

Tequila followed silently.

Chapter 137 Trading

On the road.

Kurosawa inquired about their specific transaction methods.

Tequila didn't try to hide anything and said it directly.

"We checked our suitcases in."

"Then we'll exchange the number plates we've stored."

"Then we can get the other party's briefcase, and the transaction will be completed."

Isn't this a face-to-face transaction...?

Kurosawa understood.

Therefore, there are certain risks involved.

That being the case.

Kurosawa looked at the agave and said.

"Contact him now."

"Have him bring the goods over in person to trade with you."

Hearing this, Tequila was a little puzzled.

It would have been more discreet and safer to use the previous trading methods.

Why did Gin go to all this trouble?

But under Kurosawa's watchful eye, Tequila still took out her phone and called her trading partner.

……

at the same time.

Hideaki Nakajima, an employee of the game company who was introducing video games to Conan and his friends, had his cell phone ring.

He smiled apologetically at the group as he took out his phone.

The moment Nakajima Hideaki saw the number, his expression changed.

But he quickly suppressed his unease and turned to apologize to Conan and the others.

"Sorry, I might need to go outside to take this call."

Upon hearing this, Ran Mouri, understanding the situation, said...

"It's alright, Mr. Nakajima, please feel free to do as you please."

"Perfect timing, Conan, how about we go play some arcade games over there?"

Conan had no objection to this.

He nodded in agreement.

As for Kogoro Mouri...

He was leaning against the wall with a bitter expression on his face.

Clearly, he is still suffering from the aftereffects of a hangover.

Seeing this, Hideaki Nakajima calmly walked out of the room and into the corridor.

He held his phone, staring at the number displayed on it, and nervously swallowed.
