His pupils contracted sharply, and he called out the code name of the person who had come.

"Belmod?!"

"Oh, it's you guys?"

Vermouth was quite surprised when she saw the two figures on the rooftop.

But Vermouth, who was used to hiding her inner thoughts, did not show them.

She simply smiled faintly, as if she had expected it, and called out their nicknames.

"Ray, and cool guy too~"

Conan paused for a moment when he heard those two titles.

However, he was more concerned about the former.

Lei?

Are they calling for Mr. Akai?

This code name... As expected, Mr. Akai was once an undercover agent for the organization!

Shuichi Akai looked at Vermouth and had a thought that he knew it.

He knew things wouldn't go so smoothly.

Is Vermouth's appearance here also part of their plan?

This building has the best view near the base.

It's normal that the other party could have predicted his presence here.

But if Vermouth is here, does that mean Gin is also nearby?

No, Gin must be nearby!

He's definitely watching this place from somewhere!

Vermouth blocked their retreat, and if Gin was sniping nearby, they would have nowhere to hide!

Shuichi Akai tensed up and made a gesture towards Conan.

Conan nodded slightly, then reached into his pocket and sent a message.

Meanwhile, the Kudo couple, who were waiting nearby, received the message. They exchanged a glance and began to take action.

Shuichi Akai noticed Conan's actions.

The escape route is ready; the next step is to buy time.

"How did you find this place?"

Shuichi Akai relaxed his body, lit a cigarette, and asked.

Vermouth raised an eyebrow slightly.

Although she didn't know why Shuichi Akai didn't take action, it suited her just the way things were.

If she had known that Shuichi Akai was squatting here, she wouldn't have come.

Not to mention the cool guy was there too.

Vermouth sighed inwardly.

She clearly just wanted to stay away from the center of the conflict and watch the show quietly.

Who would have thought that, by a twist of fate, they would end up directly in the enemy's center?

As for why we chose this place...

After all, this is where the view is the best.

Shuichi Akai and Conan are both here, so there must be other people lying in ambush around.

She needs to find someone to help her!

With her hands in her pockets, Vermouth typed a message to Calvados without looking.

Unfortunately, Calvados had emailed her not long ago asking where she was.

Otherwise, she might not be able to accurately locate the recipient.

Next, she needs to find a way to buy time before Calvados reaches a suitable sniping position!

Therefore, Vermouth simply smiled in response to Shuichi Akai's question.

"Finding this place shouldn't be too difficult, right?"

Vermouth knows about the FBI.

The more confident she appeared, the less likely the other person would act rashly.

Upon hearing Vermouth's reply, Shuichi Akai thought to himself, "Just as I expected."

Only Gin could give Vermouth such confidence.

The thought of Gin watching them with a sniper rifle made Shuichi Akai tense up uncontrollably.

He gestured for Conan to come closer.

Although it's unclear why Gin hasn't made a move yet.

But he must be prepared.

Vermouth noticed that Shuichi Akai's body suddenly tensed up.

She also became nervous.

what happened?

Was there something wrong with what she just said?

Why does Shuichi Akai look like he's about to make a move?

Vermouth watched Conan slowly approach Shuichi Akai and gritted her teeth inwardly.

With Conan so close to Shuichi Akai, Vermouth has, to some extent, been put at a disadvantage.

She couldn't possibly hurt Conan.

Vermouth shifted her gaze slightly backward, considering the possibility of retreating down the stairs to escape.

This move would undoubtedly put them in an FBI-controlled area.

But Calvados is not ready yet, and if Shuichi Akai chooses to take action, this may be the only option.

Shuichi Akai and Vermouth were wary of each other, but neither of them made a move.

Then another set of footsteps came.

who is it?

All three people present were on tenterhooks.

The next moment, Kurosawa and Amuro Tooru appeared in front of them.

……

Let's go back to when Conan sent a message to the Kudo couple.

Upon receiving the news, the Kudo couple began taking action and contacted Kurosawa.

"Vermouth has found Mr. Akai and the others, Kurosawa, whatever you do, don't go up to the rooftop!"

Where are you now? We're coming to pick you up!

Kurosawa raised an eyebrow slightly upon hearing this.

Belmode?

Why is this woman involved again?

However, Kurosawa refused the arrangement made by the Kudo couple without hesitation.

"no!"

"I am their target."

"If I don't go, Conan and the others will be in great danger."

"Kurosawa..."

Yukiko Kudo wanted to try to persuade him further, but Kurosawa hung up the phone immediately.

He turned to look at Amuro Tooru.

Amuro Tooru stated frankly.

"In this situation, I don't recommend you go."

Because Gin is also very likely nearby.

Amuro Tooru and Akai Shuichi had the same idea.

He felt something was wrong from the beginning.

Until now, Vermouth has appeared.

They went directly to Shuichi Akai and his group.

Everything that was being maintained now seemed to have an explanation.

Gin planned everything!

He deliberately created this situation.

Instead of taking Kurosawa's phone, he deliberately left, allowing Kurosawa to contact Shuichi Akai and others, including himself...

Amuro Tooru's expression was rather unpleasant.

His actions may also be part of Gin's plan.

Did Gin find out his identity?

Or is this just a test?

Amuro Tooru leans towards the latter.
