Survival Manual of the Science Fiction World

Judging from what Granbury said, the organization also has an event related to this today? However, given Granbury's understanding of the situation, he must be standing there observing the situation, so he nodded obediently and began to make arrangements.

First, he stood in the middle of the aisle with the tray in his hand, intentionally or unintentionally pulling the cake plate on the table out a little, and then, by handing over a drink, quietly blocking a chair on the side of the aisle.

So, when a man carrying a drink walked by, Amuro Tooru subtly tripped him without leaving a trace. As the man stumbled, he had to wave his hands to grab something to maintain his balance, and just then he bumped into a slightly exposed cake plate, causing the cake to fall over.

To avoid getting the cake on his clothes, the man instinctively stepped aside. His already unsteady steps were further disrupted by the chair blocking his way, causing him to stumble and fall into the American's arms, spilling the wine from his hand all over his head.

"Sorry, sorry."

Upon realizing he had bumped into a distinguished guest at the banquet, the low-ranking official from the mud association repeatedly apologized to him.

The American wasn't angry; he just waved at him.

"I sneaked into his room, but I didn't find anything inside. I guess it was on him."

By this time, Vermouth had searched his room thoroughly but found nothing.

"On him? -- But Bourbon just had someone pour alcohol all over him, and he didn't seem flustered at all. If he had drugs on him, why wasn't he nervous at all if someone rushed at him?"

Chu Ming sensed something was wrong: "Big brother, is Rum's information reliable? Has he caught the undercover agent? Is he using you as bait?"

Gin stood on the rooftop of the building opposite, observing the situation with his sniper rifle. Hearing this, he frowned: "He dares?"

"Wait, let me check." Chu Ming's fingers flew across the keyboard. "Do you know which lab in the US?"

“GN Biolabs, a drug that enhances cell division and recombination activity.” Since Bourbon was also on the voice channel, Gin didn’t go into too much detail.

"Information error. GN has no scheduled arrivals today. I just hacked into the airport surveillance and used facial recognition; there's no record of any American entering the country recently. What is the intelligence team up to?! This is a trap set by the Mud Ginseng Association. Vermouth, Bourbon, retreat. Vodka, notify Chianti and Cohen to head to the warehouse district west of Qianyuan City to make contact. The entire hotel is full of their people; this is the Mud Ginseng Association's headquarters. Be careful."

Chu Ming spoke rapidly, quickly connecting to surveillance cameras in various locations to plan their retreat.

“Bourbon, you go first. You were too close to the scene of the accident and you might be suspected. Take the tray and get the wine from the table near the emergency exit... Now, go downstairs! Go down three floors, then turn right. There's no one there right now.”

“Vermouth, go press the elevator buttons first. Press the buttons for each floor and then come out. There’s a cleaning warehouse behind you. With your size, you can go out through the window and climb down. There are a lot of people going to that room right now. You can only go out from the outside. After going down three floors, break the glass and go in to meet up with Bourbon.”

"Once they regroup, you can start shooting to provide support, brother..."

……

……

A series of well-organized arrangements flowed from Chu Ming's mouth. At this moment, he no longer had his usual playful demeanor. His face was serious as he stared at the computer screen. The images from various surveillance cameras were divided into small sections on the screen. On this large screen, Chu Ming analyzed each scene and reacted quickly.

It has a sense of strategizing within a command tent and winning battles a thousand miles away.

No one knew that his heart was bleeding.

...So many magnetic fields QAQ

He can only watch, he can't get any of them ┭┮﹏┭┮

……

Chu Ming's voice became hoarse from giving directions, and the four of them finally met up in the van that Vodka had driven over.

"Okay, now head to the western suburbs. Not many people will chase us. Cohen has a sniping mission and can't get there. Chianti is already in position to provide backup."

Chu Ming kept the surveillance connected until everyone successfully arrived at the base in Qianyuan City.

Bourbon was shot while covering Vermouth under Chu Ming's command. Gin told him to go to the bottom of the base to find the medic stationed there for treatment. Chianti also went to recuperate on her own. Only then did Vermouth relax.

"Well done, sweetheart~"

"What exactly happened? Why would Big Brother step into such an obvious trap?" Chu Ming's voice was slightly hoarse as he gulped down water.

"Let's discuss training your command skills," Gin said succinctly.

Vermouth added, "Gin was afraid you'd make a mistake on your first command, so he only let me in. After all, even if something happened to you, I could disguise myself and come out. But I don't know if the information was leaked or if Rum's source was problematic, but this time the Maehara Hotel was clearly the main force of the meeting. If Bourbon hadn't happened to be inside, and if Sweetheart hadn't given timely instructions, I probably wouldn't have been able to come out unscathed this time."

"So, Rum is the culprit?"

Gin was already on the phone, demanding an explanation.

Chu Ming chuckled softly on the other end of the phone, his husky voice unusually sexy.

"Is Rum getting old? How about I help him investigate this undercover agent? Perhaps I could just give him his position as head of the intelligence team?"

“It’s not impossible, sweetheart. You can be the head of the intelligence team, and one day Gin—cough cough—I’ll be the head of the action team. It’ll be perfect for us…” Vermouth smiled seductively, her words lingering and leaving much to the imagination.

"No way, the position of action team leader is mine!!" Before Gin could react, Chu Ming was the first to jump up and object.

Gin pulled out his headphones and threw them aside, preferring to ignore them.

"Brother Chu Ming—Brother Chu Ming—wake up, something's happened—"

Chu Ming was chatting with Vermouth when Conan's shouts came from the doorway.

"A kid is looking for you. We'll talk when you get back~ Bye~" Vermouth hung up the call.

Chu Ming put the computer into his system backpack, rummaged around on the bed a bit, and then opened the door.

"What's wrong?" Chu Ming opened the door, looking sleepy.

"Hey, Brother Chu Ming, what's wrong with your voice?" Conan asked, puzzled.

"I just woke up, I'll be fine in a bit. What happened?"

"There were a few gunshots at the bow, but when we got there we found nothing. At the same time, there was an explosion at the stern, and a charred body was found inside."

"Has it been confirmed whose body it is?"

Conan shook his head: "The body was burned to a crisp, so we can only identify it by the clothes and the gold watch on his wrist. After a series of investigations by Hattori and me, I believe the deceased is Mr. Kameda, because Kanie needed to create a false impression so that people would think he was dead to facilitate his crime; while Hattori believes the deceased is Mr. Kanie, and the murderer is Kameda, who disappeared from the beginning."

"Then why can't it be—that they are both victims?"

Chapter 185 Explosion (Bonus Chapter 2)

"Brother Chu Ming, what do you mean?"

Conan seems to have grasped a spark of inspiration, but he still lacks a thread to connect them.

"I'm just guessing. We need to combine your and Hattori's findings to see what happens. Where is Hattori? We haven't seen him at all."

"I don't know. I haven't seen him since we parted. I think I heard a splash just now, but I looked around and couldn't find him... Could something have happened to him?"

Conan was startled and immediately ran to the deck.

Chu Ming followed closely behind, and the two of them arrived on the deck one after the other, only to find it empty.

Chu Ming suddenly felt a wisp of magnetic field being absorbed; was there a magnetic field on the side of the ship?

Chu Ming grabbed the railing, flipped over to the outside of the boat, and peered down.

"Conan, Kanie's body is here. I think Hattori was probably pushed into the water because he saw this."

Chu Ming held onto the railing with one hand, with most of his body hanging over it.

He looked in the opposite direction the ship was traveling and could only see white spray surging at the stern as the ship moved quickly forward.

"Hattori won't be in any trouble. It seems my guess was right. Kameda and Kanie are both victims, so the only possible culprit is—"

“Mr. Whale Well!” the two said in unison.

“And look here,” Chu Ming said, flipping back onto the deck. He had sensed something was wrong as he reached for the railing. “It’s all bumpy and uneven, and there’s a smell of smoke and gunpowder.”

"I understand." Conan finally connected all the clues. "It's from lit cigarettes and firecrackers! Brother Chu Ming, you stay here and watch, I'll go call Uncle and the others over."

Soon, Kogoro Mouri, Officer Samezaki, and others arrived on the deck, where Chu Ming was pulling Kanie's body, which was tied to the life ladder, upwards.

Conan shared the clues and conclusions he and Chu Ming had just discovered with everyone, pointing out that the murderer was Kujirai, and the evidence was on Kanie. According to Kujirai's plan, Kanie would be brought up later to stage a suicide, so the traces left from killing him had not yet been cleaned up.

Chu Ming thought for a moment and added, "The detective who first discovered the crab river is probably on his way here by now, and the evidence will be even more convincing then."

The fear that Kujirai had been feigning vanished completely. He took two steps back and reached into his pocket to draw his gun.

Chu Ming was all too familiar with this action. As soon as he saw Jingjing reach into his clothes, he knew something was wrong. He grabbed the rope ladder beside him and used it as a whip, knocking the gun out of Jingjing's hand.

Kogoro Mouri and Inspector Samezaki rushed over and pinned the man to the ground.

"What a fool! The statute of limitations has already expired, yet they still choose to commit crimes at this time," Officer Samezaki couldn't help but mock.

Chu Ming went to the toolbox next to him, found a rope, and went over to help tie up Jingjing.

Then, looking at the keys and stamps in the system's inventory, he secretly gloated.

He used 1 point to create a fake key and seal and put it on Whale Well. He had just checked the key; it was safe number 382 in the Mihua Vault. He needed to show both the seal and the key to retrieve it.

Tsk tsk, he said this money was destined for him~ and he got it~

Suddenly, Ebina seemed to remember something, and his face broke out in a cold sweat: "Oh no, oh no..."

"Huh? What's wrong?"

A loud explosion was heard, and the entire ship shook violently, even showing signs of capsizing.

"What's going on?" Kogoro Mouri grabbed the railing, while his other hand held Ran tightly.

Chu Ming also scooped up Conan, who had lost his footing and fallen to the ground, and leaned him tightly against the railing on the deck.

"Captain, something terrible has happened! The cabin has suddenly exploded, the lower deck has been blown open, and the bottom is starting to leak water!"

???

Even at this moment, Kogoro Mouri was still in the mood to tell jokes: "Ran, it's all your fault! The line you said this afternoon was so unlucky!"

Chu Ming also said to Conan, whom he was holding, "Conan, this time we really have to jump. You jump first, and I'll cover you."
