Conan, I'm an actor

"This place is all set up. Next up is the hospital's inpatient department and the parking lot." Cheng Shi immediately changed the subject.

Chapter 243 The Plan That Went Around

"What? They're even planting bombs in the parking lot?" Upon hearing Narumi's words, Amuro Tooru's expression changed instantly.

If he remembered correctly, the entrance to Jingguang's ward was inside the parking lot. Although he hadn't been there often, he had figured out the location of all the other wards except for the one across the street; there was no way to leave.

“There’s another elevator inside the operating room, and this elevator goes directly to the operating room upstairs,” Cheng Shi said immediately. “The original passageway wasn’t safe.”

"Not safe?"

"Yes, that's what Mr. Shinjo said."

"Fine, I'll do as you say." Matsuda didn't seem to care.

As long as Jingguang is rescued, he'll do anything, except harm people or take their lives.

Three hours later

With the last bomb planted, all three breathed a sigh of relief. At that moment, Matsuda put down the backpack he had been carrying and took out a bunch of bombs from it.

"Where did you get so many bombs?" Amuro Tooru's eyes widened. How could a policeman act more like a criminal than a criminal?

"Isn't it interesting to mix truth and falsehood?" Matsuda Jinpei said with a smile. "These bombs are real except for the fact that they don't contain explosives. They're filled with ordinary clay."

Amuro Tooru's lips twitched. If he could just detonate one, no one would dare to mistake these bombs for fakes.

Since it wasn't a real bomb, there was no need for Narumi to lead the way; Matsuda could handle it all by himself.

Amuro Tooru originally wanted to go with Matsuda, but Dr. Narumi stopped him, saying that Shinjo had other plans for him. Matsuda "magnanimously" said it was fine, and that sometimes knowing too much wasn't necessarily a good thing.

The two took the elevator directly to the underground ward.

"What does Shinjo want from me?" Amuro Tooru asked, somewhat puzzled.

“I think it’s about planting bombs,” Chengshi said. “Those three locations were chosen by Mr. Shinjo, who even prepared a plan.”

"A project proposal?" Amuro Tooru was taken aback. He didn't understand why Shinjo had made it so complicated.

This is his hospital. They're planting bombs according to his instructions, so why do they need a plan?

Furthermore, if you've already produced a project plan, why didn't you present it before? Now that they've finished their work, you're telling me there's such a thing as a project plan? Does that mean all their previous work was for nothing? And we have to redo everything?

"Uh, it should be a project proposal," Cheng Shi said somewhat helplessly. "I don't know the specifics either. You should ask him; that might be more appropriate."

Amuro Tooru looked at Narumi's helpless expression and knew he wouldn't get anything out of him, so he simply shut up.

Soon, the two arrived at the basement. Narumi brought Amuro Tooru to Shinjo and then went straight back.

"Tell me, what is it you want from me? What's it about this time, Captain Hero?" Amuro Tooru said helplessly, looking at Shinjo.

To others, the identity of the SK865's captain might be a secret, but he had witnessed Shinseong getting involved in this matter. He simply didn't know why Shinseong was making such a big fuss.

"You investigated quite quickly. Here's the plan." Shinjo took out a file folder and handed it to Amuro Tooru.

“This…” Amuro Tooru took the file folder and looked at it. “We’ve already finished the installation. You told me you had a plan. Should I talk to Matsuda…”

“This plan isn’t for you to see.” Shinjo yawned. “You should remember that list from last time, right? Just give them this list.”

"What do you want to do!" Amuro Tooru instantly became agitated.

"It's just to confuse the target and give you an excuse to plant the bomb." Shinjo shrugged. "The monitoring room here isn't secure. Maybe someone has already discovered that a bomb has been planted in the hospital."

"This……"

“Your police found the organization’s stronghold, and then, under some pretext, led your men in,” Xincheng said, pointing to the file folder. “It was all to search for evidence of the organization’s crimes.”

Amuro Tooru was taken aback; he hadn't expected such a move. He then nodded emphatically.

That evening, the file folder was photographed, and the suspect restored it to its original state right under Kazama's nose.

The next morning, Vodka received the photos, and the first thing he did was ask Gin for his permission.

"Boss, how should we handle this?" Vodka asked, looking at Gin, whose expression was unpredictable.

Although that hospital was supposed to be the organization's stronghold and had members working there, it has been completely destroyed. Now, the hospital is entirely New City's private property.

"Give these photos to Shinjo and let him handle them." Gin returned the photos directly to Vodka. "Recall the more important members, and leave two or three people to keep watch."

"Nothing else needs to be done?"

“You don’t need to do anything.” Gin looked at the target not far away. “I’d like to see how he handles this situation.”

Shinjo is a really ruthless guy, especially towards his own people. He doesn't seem to do much against his enemies. This time, we'll see what he does.

"I understand." Vodka nodded and went back with the photo.

That noon, Shinjo received his own proposal and a message from Gin, which gave him a headache. He immediately called Kazama and asked him to call Amuro to meet him.

As a subordinate, Kazama was well aware of how close this person was to his superior, so he immediately found Amuro Tooru and arranged a meeting place.

That evening, in a private room of a KTV

Pisco was taken aback when he saw Bourbon walk in. He hadn't expected that even Bourbon had been turned. Ireland, on the other hand, had a serious expression. Cognac's connections were really impressive.

Soon, Shinjo arrived at the scene with Masaaki Okakura and Yusuke Sakata.

"Is it appropriate to talk here?" Amuro Tooru asked, looking at Pisco and the Irish liquor.

Piscoe understood that he was now cornered within the organization and had no choice but to cooperate with Newtown, but this Irish liquor…

“Irish liquor is a die-hard Pisco fan, he’s reliable, no need to worry about that.” Xincheng lit a cigarette and said to the door, “Come in, we’re all acquaintances.”

As Xincheng finished speaking, the door to the private room opened, and Curaçao, disguised as an ordinary office worker, walked in. She was surprised to see the people present, not expecting that Xincheng had managed to turn so many people to their side in such a short time.

"He is..." Pisco asked, somewhat puzzled, as he didn't recall having such a person in the organization.

“Curaçao, one of Rum’s men.” Amuro Tooru cast a probing glance at Shinjo. “Wasn’t she dead?”

I need to take leave.

My ID card is expired, I need to renew it and ask for a day off.

Chapter 244 New Town's "Revenge" Methods

"He was dead for a moment, but now he's alive again." Shinjo leaned back on the sofa and tossed an envelope over.

The envelope remained unopened, and the photos inside spilled out, spreading out across the table.

“This is…” Pisco was puzzled, not understanding what New Town was up to.

"This morning, Vodka gave it to me, saying that Gin asked him to pass it on to me."

"The police are going to bomb the hospital?" Pisco was taken aback. "Is Rum telling you to direct your anger at the police?"

“Hmm.” Shinjo nodded. “And judging from his tone, if I don’t achieve something this time, Gin might very well take action against me. I think Gin already suspects I’m an undercover agent.”

Pisco was taken aback. "You're an undercover agent?"

“Yes.” Xincheng leaned back in his chair. “Irish liquor should have noticed it a long time ago. You’re a bit slow to react, Piske.”

Pisco looked at Irish liquor, and after receiving an affirmative answer, he felt somewhat frustrated. However, he then thought of something and asked excitedly, "Since you're an undercover agent and the hospital is your territory, why did you bomb the hospital?"

Bourbon looked at Shinjo with some resentment; this trouble was caused by Shinjo's unnecessary actions.

"Because I wrote this plan, and I had Bourbon give it to the people in the organization so they could pass it back to them." Shinjo explained what he was going to do, but omitted the name Morofushi Kagemitsu.

“This is a bit troublesome.” Pisco also felt it was somewhat tricky. “Once you have a direct confrontation with the police, you won’t be able to stay in Japan. Once you leave Japan, you will definitely be no match for the organization.”

He can attest to this deeply, having spent the last twenty years holed up in Japan. While in Japan, he could use his connections and influence to rival Gin, but once he went abroad, he was a lamb to the slaughter.

“Just as you said, so I’m prepared to borrow your strength.” Shinjo looked at Bourbon. “Is there anyone in the Public Security Bureau and the Metropolitan Police Department who doesn’t like you?”

“This…” Amuro Tooru was taken aback, then understood Shinjo’s meaning and asked with some concern, “Won’t there be any danger to his life?”

“Those like Shigehiko Tobuchi are a minority,” Shinjo said with a somewhat helpless smile. “If it weren’t necessary, the organization wouldn’t easily assassinate these officials, especially high-ranking ones, right?”

Pisco's facial muscles twitched. He now understood why Shinjo had summoned him today; this kind of work was exactly what he excelled at. If Shinjo wanted to retaliate against the Public Security Bureau and the Metropolitan Police Department, he was the perfect person to handle it.

"Tell me first, what methods do you plan to use to deal with them?" Amuro Tooru was still somewhat uneasy.

New Town always likes to make a big show, and his little heart can't take it. Besides, none of the people here are easy to deal with. Curaçao goes without saying, he's Rum's top lieutenant, and Pisco is a madman too.

If he remembered correctly, the organization had previously assigned a cleanup mission to Pisk, but the target of the mission died in a plane crash.

Some people might think Pisco was just lucky, but Amuro Tooru investigated the crash and found in airport surveillance footage that strangers had entered the ground crew's work area, where they were maintaining that very plane.

If this guy weren't from Shinjo, and if those who died hadn't truly deserved to die, he would have liked to help Gin out and find an excuse to kill this madman. Keeping a guy like this in Japan is just too unsafe.

“I’ll have Pisco use his connections, and I’ll provide the dirt on them,” Shinjo said, stroking his chin. “You don’t need to worry about the rest. All you have to do is give this list and the proposal to these people, get them to approve it, and sign or stamp it.”

Amuro Tooru nodded. Exposing dirty secrets and forcing them to step down is a common tactic used by organizations to retaliate against politicians.

For those troublesome politicians, killing them isn't the best solution; letting them step down in disgrace is the optimal choice. After learning about Shinjo's methods, Amuro Tooru quickly drafted a list, mostly of elderly people nearing retirement, along with high-ranking officials suspected of leaking secrets.

Because of this plan, the mission to rescue Morofushi Kagemitsu had to be postponed. During this time, Shinjo did something else: he replaced some of the fake bombs with real ones.

Simple retaliation certainly wouldn't satisfy Gin, so he had to make the explosives disposal team suffer a bit.

"Have your men disguise themselves as members of the explosives disposal team and infiltrate the hospital," Shinjo said. "I'll detonate the bombs in sequence. Your job is to carry out the people who went in before, pretending they're corpses. Act it out, okay?"

“That’s not a problem, but…” Amuro Tooru said with a frown, “After this, the Planning Division’s power will be greatly reduced.”

Those who participated in this mission must be trusted confidants. Those who were killed in the explosion must not be brought back to life, otherwise the whole thing would be exposed. This time, it would be like kicking out one's own subordinates.

Although those guys can't get anything done, they're pretty good at running errands and doing odd jobs.

“After dealing with the Black Organization for so long, it’s time to retire,” Shinjo said with a smile. “If you can’t find a place to put them, you can introduce them to me. I happen to be short-staffed here, and they won’t be shortchanged in terms of salary.”

Amuro Tooru looked at Shinjo with a strange expression. "I have a feeling that you did this on purpose. You deliberately set a trap for me so you could steal my man."

"You think too much."

After seeing Amuro Tooru off, Shinjo handed the list and dirt on Pisco directly. At the same time, a threatening letter was sent to the TV station.

Metropolitan Police Department

"What did you say? Someone is demanding 3 million yen, or they'll blow up the hospital?" Megure was completely stunned when he received the call.

“Yes,” the director of Nichiri TV said with some difficulty, “The problem is that he didn’t leave any contact information or bank account details.”

The suspect seemed unprofessional. Even if they were prepared to pay the ransom as he demanded, who would they pay it to?
