Conan: What's wrong with my Yan Shuangying's painting style?

A name emerged in Gin's mind.

That is the sniper who achieved the highest score in the sniper event during the organization's internal training.

However, just before Gin said the name, his cell phone made a sound.

Although he was impatient, Gin still took out his phone and took a look.

Then his face darkened.

"Just as I expected, Yan Shuangying didn't come last night!"

"The guy who obstructed my actions last night was not Yan Shuangying at all. I suspect that he was an undercover agent who defected from the organization—Rye Whiskey!"

Rye whiskey?! How dare that guy show up in front of Gin, who is a member of the assassination team?

There was a hint of surprise in Vodka's eyes.

Ever since Rye Whiskey was recognized by Rum and forced to defect, he rarely heard of Rye Whiskey. He didn't expect that he would appear in Beika Town and fight with Gin!

"Just now, Vermouth told me that she received a mission and went to Shinjuku yesterday."

"Then, she met Yan Shuangying and was almost shot to death by him with a sniper rifle, either Cohen or Chianti. Furthermore, the organization's undercover agent within the police force also reported that someone was committing a crime in Shinjuku!"

"Dozens of people from a local underworld organization were killed head-on at once. I suspect it was Yan Shuangying who did it!"

Gin's voice became dull.

He never imagined that after all his efforts to deal with Yan Shuangying, Yan Shuangying would go to Shinjuku District to deal with some messy underworld organization! Is there any point in targeting such a local tyrant?

Not to mention the Wakaguchi-gumi, even the so-called Kanto Alliance and Kansai Alliance are nothing but trash in front of the organization.

A gang organization that can't even gather ten pistols can be easily dealt with by its peripheral members!

This Yan Shuangying is a bit too contemptuous!

"Heh, didn't they find out earlier that a group of people were planning to commit a crime on New Year's Day and blow up the National Stadium to threaten the police?"

"Send a few people over to help them make things happen..."

"I want to see if the 56,000 spectators and hostages at the Emperor's Cup football final at the National Stadium are enough to lure this half-human, half-ghost creature out!"

His voice was a little frantic.

But Vodka didn't dare to say no.

Because Gin really dared to do such a thing.

He had previously planned to blow up a Shinkansen train with thousands of people on board in order to get rid of a trader. Although he used a pistol in the end and failed to blow up the Shinkansen, there is no doubt about how ruthless Gin is!

So, Vodka said.

"it is good!"

Chapter 43: That Sniper is Too [Gentle]

In the morning, in the Beika Town ward.

Rei Furuya was treated in the hospital for the wounds caused by stray bullets. Later, at the doctor's request, he was hospitalized here for observation for one night and has just woken up in the hospital bed.

He looked up at the somewhat unfamiliar ceiling of the hospital, recalling the battle last night.

At that time, when he was dealing with those peripheral members of the organization in the living room, he should not have made a mistake, but because his body sensed extreme danger, he subconsciously avoided it.

This instead resulted in a stray bullet hitting his arm.

Rei Furuya speculated that this extremely dangerous place was most likely a sniper's point. Gin noticed him fighting in the living room and aimed his sniper rifle at him, preparing to shoot.

But for some reason, Gin did not shoot, but chose to lead the team to retreat.

He guessed that it was most likely related to the sound of the new sniper rifle that appeared that night.

"Mr. Amuro, it seems that Yan Shuangying arrived and took action at the last minute this time."

"Although I don't want to admit it, I have to say that the Black Organization seems to be more afraid of that lone-acting urban legend than the Japanese Public Security Bureau..."

Yuya Kazami, who was lying on another bed in the ward, sighed.

His hearing was not as good as Rei Furuya's, and he was not very familiar with firearms, so he did not hear the sound of the second sniper rifle. He just thought that someone forced Gin to retreat without the arrival of support.

Then that person must be Yan Shuangying, the urban legend known as "half-human, half-ghost, the best gunslinger".

"...I don't think so."

Fūya Rei placed his uninjured hand on his chin and rubbed it slightly.

He felt something was not right, because the sniper that appeared this time seemed a little too gentle.

Although it is true that Yan Shuangying took away two sniper rifles in recent records, it is a bit too extreme to say that any sniper must be him, because Yan Shuangying also took away a fully ammunition submachine gun from Pisk's company.

Based on his only brief experience with Yan Shuangying, he deduced——

If it was Yan Shuangying, he would most likely use a sniper rifle to force Gin to retreat, and then start chasing him with a pistol or submachine gun, instead of disappearing after forcing the organization members to retreat.

"I think a new sniper has appeared."

After hearing what Furuya Rei said, Kazami Yuya was a little skeptical.

Although Furuya Rei's level was indeed higher than his, his level was raised by FireWire due to completing a mission. In terms of experience in this area, Furuya Rei should be inferior to him————

He still thought that the person who took action this time should be Yan Shuangying.

Crunch——————

The door of the hospital ward was pushed open.

The person who appeared in the hospital ward this time was the investigator from the Public Security Bureau of the Metropolitan Police Department.

The middle-aged man's face was as serious as ever. He glanced at Furuya Rei and Kazami Yuya in the ward, and immediately quieted the two Japanese police officers. Then he spoke.

"According to the Shinjuku Ward police chief."

"Yan Shuangying appeared inside the Wakaguchi-gumi's base in Kabukicho Ichibangai, Shinjuku District, last night, around the same time you were carrying out your mission and engaging in battle with the Black Organization, and slaughtered them all."

"At the scene, the police I dispatched found the shell casings of the bullets used in the sniper rifle."

"After investigation, we determined that Yan Shuangying's sniper rifle was aimed at a hotel room approximately 2,300 meters away from the Wakaguchi-gumi base."

"The guests in the hotel room checked out and left the hotel immediately after Yan Shuangying finished shooting."

"The hotel guests didn't report this to the hotel owner. It wasn't until around six in the morning, when the waiter was cleaning the room, that they discovered the bullet holes inside the room from a sniper rifle shot—"

The investigator didn't finish his words.

However, both Furuya Rei and Kazami Yuya already knew what the investigator meant.

There is no doubt that if the person who appeared in Shinjuku District and slaughtered all the members of the Wakaguchi-gumi base was Yan Shuangying, then the sniper who appeared in Beika Town to help the Japanese police fight against Gin must not be Yan Shuangying.

Unless Yan Shuangying knows the art of splitting himself into two parts, it is impossible for him to appear in two places at the same time!

A new sniper has arrived in Beika Town and is also targeting the Black Organization, but his identity is unknown!

In addition, the identity of the hotel room resident who Yan Shuangying attempted to shoot with a sniper rifle was obviously wrong. He was most likely a member of the Black Organization or some criminal.

In order to conceal his identity and uniqueness, he evacuated immediately after being sniped...

A name popped up in Furuya Rei's mind—

Belmode!

The female cadre of the organization who has a close relationship with the organization's boss!

Calvados, the member of the organization who was killed in the hotel room before, had a close relationship with Vermouth. As a member of the organization, he did not receive any news about Calvados coming to Tokyo.

The only possibility for this Vermouth bootlicker is that he came to Tokyo with Vermouth!

"...It seems like the situation in Beika Town is getting more and more complicated."

I don't know what Rei Furuya is thinking. Yuya Kazami, who knows much less intelligence than Rei Furuya, sighed.

The crime rate in Beika Town has skyrocketed in the past three months, and now it's even more chaotic.

I really hope that the situation in Beika Town can be resolved soon.

Although he is a member of the Japanese Public Security Bureau, he doesn't want to have to work overtime in Beika Town on New Year's Day!

"Investigator, I will investigate the identity of that mysterious sniper next."

"I have some clues now. If nothing unexpected happens... I will be able to get the results in a week at most."

Furuya Rei made a serious promise to the investigator.

The investigator nodded in satisfaction.

After saying some clichés like there was no need to rush and to take good care of your injuries, he left the ward.

But judging from the fact that the investigator came to the ward in person today to see him, who specialized in investigating the intelligence of the Black Organization, Fūya Rei could be sure that the investigator was probably under pressure again.

Judging from his actions, he is very impatient.

Fūya Rei relaxed his body and leaned back against the white wall.

He suddenly thought of something he had overlooked before——

"Why would Calvados appear near Teitan Elementary School and conduct a sniper attack?"

"Why did Yan Shuangying know that Calvados would appear near Teitan Elementary School?"

"If Calvados really followed Vermouth to Tokyo, then was Vermouth also near Teitan Elementary School at the time? What was her purpose? Was there anything at Teitan Elementary School worth her personal attention?"

He whispered to himself.

"It seems that it is necessary to investigate the situation at Teitan Elementary School."

Chapter 44 Conan: Five Minutes to Speed ​​Through the Shizuoka Prefecture Murder Case

At this moment, on the streets of Shizuoka Prefecture, far away from the center of the storm, Tokyo.

The Death God elementary school student in a blue suit showed a pair of dead fish eyes.

Looking at the crowd that blocked the road in front of me, I didn't know what to say for a moment.

"It seems something happened."

Haibara Ai stood beside Conan and spoke softly.
