I work as an editor at Marvel.

The door was flung open. "Superintendent..."

"Get out! Take your men and move away! Surround the third floor! No one is allowed in unless I give the order!"

Hattori Heizo shouted with an air of dominance.

Peng, the door was immediately slammed shut, followed by a series of footsteps.

A few seconds later, Hattori Heizo opened the door, looked around to make sure no one was nearby, and then returned to his office.

"Dad, you just shoot like that?!" Hattori Heiji complained, feeling like he had been adopted.

"If I wanted to shoot your foot, I wouldn't have shot your leg. If you're going to lie about something like this, you deserve to be shot."

Hattori Heizo walked to the bullet hole, poked at it with his fingers, and pried out a bit of the deformed bullet.

"... "

"Tell me everything you know!"

Hattori Heizo looked at Hattori Heiji seriously and said.

Chapter 146 Red Team Gathers

After hearing Hattori Heiji's description, Hattori Heizo basically believed everything he said.

"You don't need to continue investigating the case. Go to Tokyo. I'll arrange for someone to contact you," Hattori Heizo said after a moment of thought.

Arrange someone? Hattori Heiji immediately understood. He estimated that he was about to meet the undercover agent from the liquor company. But why would his father, the Superintendent of Police in Osaka, be in charge of the undercover agent in Tokyo?

Despite his curiosity, Hattori Heiji, who knew the rules, didn't ask any further questions.

A few days later, with the remote assistance of Yusaku Kudo, Conan and Heiji Hattori cleared out all the cases they could solve using the case files, and then headed to Tokyo together.

Meanwhile, at Professor Agasa's house, Fina yawned, looking quite tired. She had just inscribed an energy extraction array into Ai Haibara's body and also cast a space-expansion spell on the basement, otherwise it wouldn't be able to accommodate so many people.

But now things are looking up. The energy storage device on the shuttle has been idle for so long and is finally starting to work. The Black Organization is also nearing its end.

Ding-dong, the doorbell rang.

Professor Agasa walked briskly to the monitor in his slippers. Standing outside the gate was a rather handsome police officer in a uniform, carrying several folders.

"Hello, is there anything I can help you with?" Professor Agasa asked as he opened the door and walked into the yard.

"Hello, I was sent here by Inspector Hattori. I am Rei Furuya. May I come in?" Rei Furuya asked very politely.

"Ah, sure."

Dr. Agasa quickly opened the door.

When Furuya Rei walked in, he kept observing the situation in the yard, which could be considered an occupational hazard of his.

In fact, he still doesn't understand why the Osaka Metropolitan Police Department would go through such a roundabout way to send him here to find a kid named Conan Edogawa.

It's one thing for them to come looking for him, but to demand that he obey the orders of Conan Edogawa and Heiji Hattori during this period is just ridiculous. It's utterly absurd.

Anyway, he only planned to come here briefly and make a perfunctory appearance. Don't be fooled by Furuya Rei's low rank in the Public Security Bureau; it's because he's currently an undercover agent. Once he returns, he'll likely be arrested at least three times.

The Superintendent General of Police can have jurisdiction over him, but he is not required to absolutely obey the orders of the Osaka Superintendent General.

After Rei Furuya entered the room, Fina immediately received a message on her communicator from Ai Haibara in the basement; her radar system had been activated again.

After learning that her radar was a supernatural ability, Ai Haibara has recently begun to consciously train her perception to detect and resolve problems early.

Fina looked up at Rei Furuya. "Officer? Are you here to check passports?"

"No, I came here to..."

Before Furuya Rei could finish speaking, the door that had just been closed was opened again.

"Shinichi, you're back." Professor Agasa walked over enthusiastically, but as usual, he still didn't remember that the current Shinichi Kudo was called Conan.

"Professor!" Conan winked at Professor Agasa, giving him a subtle reminder.

"Oh, Conan, you're back." Professor Agasa immediately changed his tune, but this change was even more obvious than before.

Rei Furuya gave Conan a deep look. Shinichi? Shinichi Kudo? This is interesting.

"Hey, hello, you must be the police officer my father mentioned." Hattori Heiji walked up to Furuya Rei and extended his hand. "I'm Hattori Heiji, trainee patrol officer."

That's right, Hattori Heizo casually got his underage son, who was still in high school, a patrol officer's identity. Although it was the lowest level of identity, it still put him in the police system.

"Hello, Rei Furuya." Rei Furuya said neither humbly nor arrogantly, completely disregarding the manner of Heiji Hattori's father.

Just then, Fina stood up from her seat. "Heiji Hattori, is this the person your father chose?"

“Yes,” Hattori Heiji nodded and said.

"Alright, everyone's here. Follow me." Fina waved and led the way to the basement.

Although Furuya Rei didn't understand what it meant, he didn't think Hattori Heizo was a member of the organization, so he followed behind with his questions in mind.

After Rei Furuya followed Conan, Heiji Hattori, and Fina into the basement, Rei Furuya was completely dumbfounded.

This place is huge, it's even bigger than the houses on the ground, it's a bit too abnormal.

After Fina came back in, everyone else in the basement turned their attention to Rei Furuya behind her.

Rei Furuya had only taken two steps when he stopped.

Shuichi Akai, Kir!

With myself added to the mix, we could practically hold an organizational meeting. Wait, didn't Shuichi Akai betray us? This meeting doesn't seem quite right!

Indeed, Ai Haibara was able to immediately sense that, besides the targeted training Rei Furuya had received recently, it was also because she had come into contact with too many members of the Black Organization all at once.

Furuya Rei quietly reached for the gun in his pocket, then walked down step by step, completely bewildered.

"Please take your seats. There are quite a few people here, so we'll skip the introductions. Just look at your name tags. The meeting will begin in one minute," Vernon said, looking up. Most of the people here were people he had contacted through various means to reach countries around the planet.

Karasuma Renya stores energy in building materials, which means they have to contact other countries on the planet; going alone would be too inefficient.

Before Furuya Rei could even settle into his seat, Fina casually placed a sign in front of him: Bourbon/Furuya Rei, Japanese Public Security.

Rei Furuya, his forehead slightly sweaty, glanced at the name tags of the other people.

Sherry/Shiho Miyano/Ai Haibara, Rye Whiskey/Shuichi Akai/FBI, Kir/Hidemi Hondo/CIA, Fina/Ouroboros, Vernon/Ouroboros, Conan/Shinichi Kudo, Heiji Hattori/Japanese Police.

There aren't many people with code names in the organization, and including those who defected, half of the middle-level personnel have already been wiped out here.

"You're all undercover agents?!" Furuya Rei looked at the others who had codenames.

Hideaki Akai pulled his hat down slightly. He didn't want to talk. If he had known that the brewery was full of fake liquor and that the real liquor was mostly cheap stuff, why would he have taken the risk back then?

Hondo Emi was also in a bad mood; her father's death was so unjust.

Ai Haibara sighed and looked down at her materials. With so many undercover agents, how could that organization have survived for so long? One can only imagine what the leaders behind these people were thinking.

"Alright, we've all gotten to know each other now. There was supposed to be one more person, but she can't come right now, so I spoke to her for her. Her code name is Vermouth, and her real name is Vermouth."

Vernon went on to say that.

"Vermouth too?!" Rei Furuya couldn't help but ask. Wasn't Vermouth supposed to be the daughter of the organization's top leader? Even her own daughter had betrayed them?!

Vernon nodded. He had seen this woman when he peeked into the timeline, and this time he had simply touched her as well.

Who knew that after confirming the truth, Vermouth surrendered without saying a word, revealing everything. Judging from her expression, she couldn't wait for the Black Organization to die! I wonder what kind of grudge she had against those people.

Rei Furuya lowered his gun. This couldn't be a trap. The Black Organization had the capability; the Earth belonged to them.

Update delayed tonight

Many friends have given feedback on this part of the story recently, so I've been speeding up the progress and expect to finish it today. However, I'm catching a train to another city today, so the update will be a bit late. I apologize to everyone.

Chapter 147 As long as you surrender quickly, everything will be fine (Bonus chapter for Alliance Leader Qingheyue)

In fact, the fate of the Black Organization was already decided when Vernon set up this scheme.

This distillery, which is full of counterfeit alcohol, is going to have to close down. In the past, the U.S. might have tried to recruit the distillery because of its special technology.

After all, they've done this kind of thing countless times. They'll recruit anyone who benefits them, even those who can no longer be considered human.

But now, it has been revealed that the winery's special technology was copied, and only a portion of it was copied, and from a criminal organization, while law enforcement was still floating in outer orbit.

In this situation, even the United States cannot openly and legitimately offer amnesty.

After contacting some "friends," Rum also drew this conclusion from their attitudes.

In the past ten days or so, more than a dozen secret bases of the Black Organization have been destroyed, some of which were old bases from the Karasuma Renya era.

With all the undercover organizations temporarily ceasing their efforts to hinder operations, the distillery has nowhere to hide, especially now that the only truly valuable spirit—Gin—has already been released.

After pacing around the dark room for a long time, Rum still couldn't make up his mind to surrender. After all, there was still a top leader in the organization - that man - and the founder - Karasuma Renya, whose fate was uncertain.

They might still have ways to turn the tide; after all, a criminal organization that can be hunted down across galaxies by law enforcement can't possibly only have the technology it has now.

Rum's last hope was that the man was now standing in front of a slumber pod, inside which was the completely aged Karasuma Renya.

He clung to this incomplete technology, barely clinging to life.

Over the years, Karasuma Renya has only been awakened once, when the Silver Bullet II was successfully developed.

Unfortunately, the silver bullet developed by the Miyano couple could only extend a person's lifespan, while their physical abilities would remain unchanged at the moment they took the drug. This was already an unimaginable advancement.

However, this medicine, which is extremely useful to most people, is a double-edged sword for Karasuma Renya—tasteless to eat but a pity to throw away.

What's the point of maintaining his body, which is over a hundred years old? Isn't it the same as lying in a sleep pod?

Regardless, this was a significant step forward. So, Karasuma Renya tested the medicine on Vermouth and, after confirming its success, summoned the Miyano couple to his presence.

They were given selective information, which was intended to motivate them to continue their efforts and create the drug that Karasuma Renya wanted.

However, Karasuma Renya, who was constantly living in fear of death, forgot one thing: not everyone wants to overthrow the world, and not everyone is crazy enough to go to any lengths, even destroying the world, to continue living.

Especially the two scientists who are not yet facing any life-threatening challenges.

Thus, the fire that led to the deaths of the Miyano couple occurred, and along with them disappeared important data for manufacturing the silver bullet.

After thinking about some things from the past, the man shook his head and pressed the wake-up button on the control panel.

After a cool spray spread, Karasuma Renya awoke from his slumber. Having stolen the world's energy to extend his lifespan, he did not need any extra rest or recuperation. He was almost identical to when he entered the world.

"Ah..." Karasuma Renya's eyes, which resembled withered branches, turned, and his lips, which had shriveled to the point of being invisible, began to move. "Is the potion... ready...?"
