Conan: I'm Really Not Tokyo Ghost Story

What Shuichi Akai feared most was indeed that new executive.

Therefore, Shuichi Akai had previously approached the Black Reaper and spent a large sum of money to try to buy information on the whereabouts of "Rye," and Sano readily accepted the money, though it was impossible to obtain any detailed information.

It's perfectly fine to tell Shuichi Akai what Sano is busy with.

Therefore, in Shuichi Akai's current understanding...

"Rye" is currently entangled with the Mud Ginseng Association and has no time to deal with this matter.

This one's in the bag!

Shuichi Akai, with Conan in the back, followed behind Car Number Two. He stared at Korn riding a motorcycle ahead for a few seconds, then looked through the rearview mirror at Vermouth, who was also riding a motorcycle behind his car.

It's a similar lineup to the Kang Hui incident in Tumen.

The only thing missing is Rena Mizunashi, who was with Shuichi Akai.

"Brother, there are only two people in car number three, one in the driver's seat and one in the passenger seat, and both of them have bombs with locators on them. They shouldn't be the target."

Vodka used an infrared thermal imaging device to examine the interior of vehicle number three.

This is how he reported to Gin.

As for the other two vehicles, number one and number two, which were followed by Cohen and Chianti, each contained nine people, and in the middle of each vehicle lay a figure who was not carrying a locator bomb.

Undoubtedly, the group focused their attention on cars number one and two.

But at that moment, Shuichi Akai suddenly shifted gears and accelerated, rushing towards car number two.

It was as if they were deliberately drawing Gin and the others' attention to car number two.

Gin immediately realized something was wrong and directed Vodka and the others to focus their attention on car number three.

Shuichi Akai seemed to realize that he had inadvertently given himself away, and became a little anxious. He then directed the first and second cars to intercept the organization members next to them.

As for Vermouth, Shuichi Akai will intercept her.

...Why didn't they rush back to save car number three? Instead, they each blocked the people next to them. Did they have complete confidence in the person in car number three?

Gin curled the corners of his lips into a smile.

It seems that Shuichi Akai's brain has become rusty after being away from the organization for a while.

"Cohen, Antin, Belmod, play along with them. Vodka, stick close to car number three. I'll be there soon. Once we take back Kiel, we'll leave immediately!"

"Yes!"

However, just as Gin started the car and caught up with Vodka, the other three people gradually realized that something was wrong, and a voice came from the walkie-talkie.

"Gin, something's wrong. Shuichi Akai isn't trying to stall us; he wants to capture us!"

Vermouth looked at Shuichi Akai in the pickup truck on her left, and on the right side of the road, there was a ten-meter-high drop in the air, with a car blocking the way in front and behind.

We're surrounded!

Cold sweat beaded on Vermouth's forehead beneath her helmet: "He wants to trade Gil for the three of us!"

"..."

Gin was stunned, and veins popped out on his forehead.

Damn it, I've been tricked!

Shuichi Akai rested one hand on the car window, a confident smile on his face.

If he tries to turn back now, no matter how hard he tries, Gin will most likely only be able to catch up with one side – on the line of car number two, Cohen and Vermouth are not far apart.

Gin will probably choose this side.

Chianti on that number one line is definitely a must-win situation.

"Gah!"

Suddenly, a dark shadow flew past Shuichi Akai's car, briefly obscuring the sunlight hitting his eyes, before soaring into the sky and flying towards a road above the lane for car number two.

Ok?

Hideaki Akai glanced over instinctively.

A person wearing a black hoodie and a baseball cap was standing on a car that was hugging the edge of the road and traveling at a speed similar to that of Shuichi Akai.

The hood billowed in front of his face, revealing the white hair on the side of his head.

A black raven landed on his shoulder, creating a stark contrast.

Sano had one hand in his hoodie pocket and held a conspicuous submachine gun in the other.

Using their height advantage, they looked down at Shuichi Akai below.

Shuichi Akai's lips froze instantly, and the originally bright sky seemed to darken as a result of the black figure above.

Chapter 470, Vermouth: Rye's bomb-making skills have improved again.

In a short time.

A massive shadow seemed to envelop Shuichi Akai... and perhaps even Conan standing nearby.

"……rye!?"

Vermouth also noticed Sano above.

The surprised sound reached Gin's ears on the other end, instantly putting his mind at ease.

"All operations proceed as usual, Chianti, just hold on a little longer."

"……it is good."

Gin took out his phone and quickly called Sano.

“I’ll take care of things with Kiel. You should prioritize protecting Vermouth and Cohen. Chianti is a bit far away… Can Calvados go there?”

"……Um."

Sano was too lazy to say anything more and hung up the phone.

Calvados stepped on the roof of the car, poked his head out, and Sano said "Contact Chianti" before leaping off the car and plunging down the higher road towards the road where car number two was located.

...At this moment, the organization's spy was dragged out by Conan and then forced to his death by Shuichi Akai.

Two days have passed.

The night before last, Sano issued a "challenge" to the Mud and Ginseng Association.

The next day, most of the cadres attending the meeting gathered together for a meeting.

With remarkable ease, Sano used his black cat form to leave a powerful bomb at the meeting place of those guys, which directly destroyed a building.

Countless people were wiped out.

Then there were some who slipped through the net because of various factors and did not attend the meeting.

Sano, wearing a rye vest, followed Calvados while simultaneously controlling the black cat vest, working on both sides to hunt down the remaining guys.

Finally, everything was done before dawn today.

At this point, apart from taking a short nap yesterday, Sano and his companion were exhausted—after all, neither of them had gotten enough rest before they took action the day before yesterday.

I had finally finished work.

Sano and Calvados should hurry home and get some sleep.

But Sano had received another mission.

Emergency rescue – ensuring the safety of the Black side personnel.

[Please ensure the survival of the mission target within the time limit. Completion will earn you 100 enhancement points. Remaining time: 00:08:42]

Judging from their positions, they are the other three people besides Gin and his duo.

But to be honest.

Sano truly didn't expect that, on the organization's home turf, with Gin having the initial advantage, he would still fall into the trap set by Shuichi Akai.

...Did he drink too much fake alcohol in broad daylight?

Furthermore, you stepped on it, but didn't you even think to call for help?

If I hadn't shown my face, when was I planning to call myself?

Or is it...?

Gin felt he was busy with personal matters and was embarrassed to be disturbed.

Lost in thought, Sano landed on the roof of a car.

After a roll, Sano grabbed the edge of the car roof and hung on the side.

...Damn it, this guy finally showed up.

Didn't they say they were having a fight with the Mud Ginseng Association?

Was it already resolved, or did Gin sense something was wrong beforehand, or was it simply a precaution that led him to call this guy over?

Akai Hideyoshi's eyes were dark and unreadable.

He was already starting to think about whether he should retreat first.

Conan had already quietly crouched down to avoid being seen by Sano.

Sano had no intention of giving Shuichi Akai time to think.

When Shuichi Akai approached Sano's accomplice to inquire about the whereabouts of his ripped vest, it didn't surprise him at all, because the conflict between the two sides had only occurred in the last few days.

Sano originally thought that Shuichi Akai was trying to find out his whereabouts.

They wanted to avoid being wiped out, or perhaps they wanted to find peace of mind.

Unexpectedly, he had such thoughts; all I can say is...

Commendable courage?

Sano casually gave Akai Shuichi a burst of bullets.

The front and rear windows of Shuichi Akai's car were shattered.

Shuichi Akai crouched down, but his foot didn't leave the brake.
