Conan: I'm Really Not Tokyo Ghost Story

Aside from the astonishment at the appearance of the blond-haired man, what the people present were more concerned about was why Sano would hand over the little girl, and what that sentence meant.

"Big trouble."

A group of people watched Sano quietly, waiting for him to explain.

But Sano pulled out a cigarette case: "I'm going out to buy a pack of cigarettes, you guys can do whatever you want."

After saying that, Sano threw away the empty cigarette box and went out the door.

A group of people sat in the room in silence for a few minutes.

Sano finally returned.

However, Conan's attention immediately drifted to Sano's ears.

"...What happened to your ear?"

When Conan mentioned it, the others noticed that Sano had a piece of medical gauze wrapped around his ear. Ran Mouri immediately became worried: "Did something happen?"

"It's nothing serious, just a bite from a rat."

Sano waved his hand casually: "I'm sleepy, you guys go back first."

"what?"

Inspector Megure stood up, bewildered: "Then this matter..."

"We'll talk about it later, we'll talk about it later."

Sano stopped talking nonsense and pushed the group of people to forcibly drive them away.

Just as Inspector Megure and Kogoro Mouri were about to get into the car they had come in after arriving at the roadside, a white Mazda suddenly sped up and then came to a sudden stop. Through the car window, they could see...

Inside was Amuro Tooru.

"...Mr. Amuro?"

Amuro Tooru got off the car in a hurry, without even having a chance to see Conan and the others.

They quickly located Sano behind them.

However, before Amuro Tooru could speak, he saw Sano suddenly raise his left hand to pinch his throat, while his right hand took something out of his pocket.

“Zuo…”

"Rum!"

Before Amuro Tooru could shout, Sano yelled first, but it wasn't his voice; it was a woman's voice.

...Curaçao?

Upon hearing that familiar shout, Kenjiro Wakita, who was looking at Tooru Amuro, froze and instinctively turned around, already sensing something was wrong.

Sure enough, what came into view was the dark muzzle of Sano's gun.

"Bang bang bang!!"

Several gunshots rang out, and blood blossoms exploded on Wakita Kanenori's body.

But Sano kept firing until he had emptied a whole magazine of bullets.

Wakita Kenji collapsed to the ground and could not get up.

Sano then quickly threw away his pistol and raised his hands.

"Don't move!"

Almost immediately, countless armed special police officers in combat uniforms emerged from the shadows and corners, surrounding Sano from all sides.

"Shinichiro Sano, we suspect you of intentional homicide and involvement in terrorist acts and have sufficient evidence. We are now formally arresting you. You have the right to remain silent, but everything you say will be used as evidence in court. Do not resist, or we have the right to shoot you on the spot!"

Under the utterly bewildered gazes of Conan and the others.

Several special police officers quickly approached Sano and attempted to forcibly pin him to the ground and handcuff him.

But as soon as Sano's shoulder was touched, he glared coldly at the owner of the hand. After a brief two-second eye contact, the SWAT officer involuntarily stepped back.

This immediately put the other police officers around them on edge.

The gun barrel pointed forward instinctively, the trigger was pulled tight, and he was ready to fire at any moment.

"stop!"

Amuro Tooru quickly called for a stop, strode over to Sano, and looked him in the eye.

After a long pause, his expression became complicated.

Amuro Tooru didn't say anything more, he just took out handcuffs: "You do it, I'll do it."

Sano raised an eyebrow, said nothing, and stretched out his hands together.

...This scene is so familiar.

Remember at the very beginning of the Kusakabe case, Sano taunted Amuro Tooru, saying he could handcuff him if he dared, and now he's actually done it.

Amuro Tooru was silent for two seconds, then swiftly handcuffed Sano.

The SWAT officers next to him wanted to search Sano, but Amuro Tooru said directly, "No need to search him. If he really wanted to run away, you would all be dead by now."

"..."

The SWAT officers exchanged glances and ultimately silently returned to their ranks.

Then, before Inspector Megure and his group could react, they were even more confused about why Kensuke Wakita was killed, why Sano killed him, and what was going on with these special police officers. Apart from Conan and Ai Haibara, no one else knew either.

What is the story behind Tooru Amuro?

Sano had already gotten into the car with Amuro Tooru.

A large group of special police officers also quickly retreated, taking with them the body of Kenjiro Wakita.

Oh.

To be precise, it was Rum's body.

Yes, that's right.

Sano knew from the very beginning that Rum was behind it all.

There are two main sources of information. One is the high-ranking officials that Sano brainwashed within the official system... We really owe a lot to Ito Taka for this.

have to say.

This guy has a really wide circle of friends, and they're all quite close.

Thanks to Ito Taka's introduction.

Sano can approach the target he wants to get close to very easily.

Even without Ito Taka, Sano could have succeeded.

But at least this saves me the time of screening targets and getting close to them.

Otherwise, just brainwashing those cannon fodder would be troublesome enough. How could Sano possibly have planted several important moles in the official system in such a short time? In short, Black Rye's true identity was secretly reported to the higher-ups in the official ranks, and he received this message.

Let's leave aside for now who made the notification.

In any case, the authorities have taken action.

That's why Sano temporarily handed the man over to the blond guy over there.

Secondly, there's Gin's side... Rye got involved in this.

The number of people who know this information is neither too many nor too few.

It's normal that low-ranking officials like Inspector Megure wouldn't know, but anyone in a higher position, or more involved in the matter, would generally know, and that's how the news reached the brewery.

That makes perfect sense.

Therefore, Sano was summoned for a talk by Gin.

"...Didn't I tell you before, don't get involved with those guys anymore?"

Although officials have confirmed that Rye is the man in black.

Gin, however, seemed to still believe Sano, only accusing him of asking for trouble.

Chapter 681 Black God

"It seems Rum has already made his move; he's looking for your weakness."

Then came Gin's reminder and warning: "Don't get involved in this anymore."

"That won't work."

"Why? You can see how tense the authorities are right now. That monster Kurosawa has made the authorities afraid to show their faces, hiding in that damned turtle shell. If you really want to do anything to the radicals, you're facing the entire power of the entire Japanese nation!"

Gin couldn't understand Sano's stubbornness.

The "turtle shell" that Gin mentioned is actually a safe house that the authorities secretly built underground, similar to the distillery's base.

Almost all officials, including but not limited to the radical faction, are now hiding inside, fearing that the Black Mask will come knocking on their door and hang them outside.

That outpost is the base of Japan's largest army, located near the coast.

The largest heavy firepower from the sea, land, and air is basically complete, and access to the area below requires multiple levels of approval and verification; there are more cameras than people.

The government's most elite and loyal combat personnel are responsible for guarding it.

To break through from the front, we would have to retreat... It's not that Gin looks down on Sano.

However, this task is no less difficult than destroying neon lights.

Unless Sano can hand-crush a few little boys and throw them over first, otherwise...

Ok.

However, Sano simply took the documents that Gin had brought over earlier and glanced through them.

"It's alright."

Sano chuckled: "You seem to have misunderstood something, Lord Gin. We are assassins, organized assassins, not terrorists. Why insist on a confrontation? I already have three methods of assassination at a glance."

……Um?

Gin was stunned. He had helped Sano collect this information so that Sano would understand how difficult and dangerous this matter was.
