My lover is this organization

Inspector Nakamori rested his hands on the coffee table with an extremely serious expression.

"At present, our police have analyzed that the 'sky tower' in Kidd's notice refers to the castle tower of Osaka Castle, but we still don't know what the previous sentence 'the clock without a second hand reaches the twelfth word' means."

"When a clock without a second hand reaches the twelfth character, could it be referring to the twelfth character in the Japanese kyon?" Sonoko said in a daze.

"Japanese kyon?"

Xiaolan counted on her fingers: "The twelfth pronunciation of the Japanese 50-sound system should be... si? That means four o'clock in the morning?"

"Four o'clock in the morning..."

Inspector Nakamori nodded slightly, but then shook his head.

"It won't be that simple. Although four in the morning is before dawn, the code designed by Kidd can't be that simple."

"I understand! Inspector!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Kogoro Mori next to him started shouting again with an expression of great confidence on his face.

"The twelfth letter on a clock without a second hand does not refer to the Japanese 50-character spelling, but to the twelfth letter of the English alphabet!"

"English letters!?"

The policemen who were still saying that the code designed by Kidd couldn't be so simple just a second ago all looked surprised that such an operation was worthy of the famous detective Mouri Kogoro.

Qin Wuque couldn't listen any more after hearing this.

Although he knew almost nothing about reasoning, he knew that reasoning had to be based on evidence, rather than just thinking of anything with your eyes closed and relying entirely on guesswork.

If this is possible, it can only be said that it was not you who predicted Kidd's operation, but Kidd had foresight and predicted that you would predict his operation in this way, and happily ran into the trap!

"By the way, Shirley, how about sleeping in the same room with me tonight?"

While no one was paying attention, Qin Wuque leaned over to Miyano Shiho's ear and whispered as if nothing had happened.

Upon hearing this, the latter immediately glanced at the guy warily.

"What do you want to do?" The girl raised her signature half-moon eyes. "I'm already a traitor to the organization, and on the death list with a red cross. It's fine if you yell at me like this at home, but you also yell at me outside. If any member of the organization hears it... um?"

"Okay, Ai-chan, no problem, Ai-chan." Qin Wuque changed his words quickly.

???

This guy, doesn't he have any shame? He just starts crying and wailing?

Logically, shouldn't we start by calling out to Huibara?

Miyano Shiho...oh no, it's Haibara Ai thought to herself.

"By the way, how did you come up with this name?" Qin Wuque was a little curious.

"Hehe~ I won't tell you."

Huihara Ai glanced at him faintly with a hint of smile.

"And you haven't told me why you want to share a room with me. Could it be that you're tired of big foreign horses like Vermouth and now you like petite types? I heard that the minimum sentence is three years and the maximum is death penalty?"

"You, what are you thinking about?" Qin Wuque scratched his face.

"I just have a feeling that I will probably meet someone in my industry in Osaka this time. I said this for safety reasons. Just think about it. I am just a (mad) assassin (war) guest (warrior). What bad intentions can I have~right?"

"..."

Looking at someone's innocent and aggrieved expression, Huibara Ai really wanted to say to him, "Can you have some shame?"

But after thinking about it, I still couldn't say it out loud.

She sighed for her soft-heartedness: "So who is this colleague you are talking about?"

"Scorpion."

"Scooping? Scorpion?"

Huihara Ai was stunned for a moment.

She was stunned not because she suddenly remembered something after hearing the name, but because she didn't associate anything with it.

"Yes." Qin Wuque nodded. "It is said that this Shi Kaobing is a killer who specializes in collecting Romanov dynasty artifacts and treasures. His characteristic is that he likes to snipe people's right eyes. And because this guy has always worked only for himself, no one has ever seen him. No one knows his gender, age, and appearance. We only know that there is such a person."

"After hearing your description, I feel that he looks very much like someone." Haibara Ai's eyes suddenly became meaningful.

"Huh? How could that be?" Qin Wuque leaned back slightly. "I'm just used to clearing out all the enemies I see during missions. Besides, you, Mingmei, Sister Bei, and Captain Qin, many people have seen me. It's not as exaggerated as you say, and..."

He paused here, took two steps back, glanced at the people sitting beside the coffee table who were still discussing how to guard against Kidd from the castle tower, and whispered.

"I thought it would be too difficult to rely on these guys to guard the egg, so I decided to strike first!"

Qin Wuque raised his thumb firmly and gave the girl in his arms a Might Guy-like smile.

When Haibara Ai saw his expression, she couldn't help but feel a headache.

"So what exactly does your preemptive strike mean..."

"You know~"

Qin Wuque smiled even more happily now.

"In order to ensure the safety of my dear Ai-chan and prevent her from being targeted by the Scouts, let's meet in the same bed tonight. I'll give you my balls to play with then~"

"Shut up...if you keep talking I'm going to call the police."

PS: The second update may be a little later, but probably before 5 o'clock, mainly because I slept until noon today and got up late...

Chapter 80: The Killer Showdown

It was 7:15 in the evening, and Qin Wuque arrived on time at an apartment building located near the edge of the city center of Osaka.

Just looking at the exterior of the apartment building, it is obviously a standard abandoned apartment building. There are various water marks and traces of peeling wall paint on the wall surface. The spring of the security door is broken and it is wide open. There is not even an electric car parked in the corridor. It does not look like anyone lives here, but the neon billboard on the roof is still shining in the night sky.

"I never thought that the police officer who looked so stupid would choose such an inconspicuous place. I thought he would just take the egg to the castle tower to catch Kidd."

Qin Wuque stood at the bottom of the building and looked up, his tone full of sighs.

In fact, he had been here before, following a certain Inspector Nakamori who threatened to hide the Egg of Memory in a place where no one could find it to prevent Kid from getting it.

The other party drove the police car all the way, and he followed behind it, and finally followed it here.

And the other party never noticed him and had no anti-tracking awareness at all.

Given his previous experience of scouting the area, Qin Wuque, who had successfully learned by heart that the Egg of Memory was hidden in the room on the top floor of the building, strode directly into the apartment building and went straight up the stairs in the corridor.

When he reached the corner of the stairs leading to the top floor, he happened to hear a faint voice coming from above.

"Report to the police! The generator and lighting equipment are ready!"

"Very good! All we have to do now is wait for tonight to pass. No matter how hard Kidd tries, he will never figure out that we would hide the Egg of Memory in a place like this, hahaha!"

Perhaps he had already imagined the scene of himself returning to be rewarded after successfully rescuing the Egg of Memory from Kidd, and Nakamori Ginzo let out a laugh that he thought was extremely heroic.

Of course, to Qin Wuque's ears, this laughter sounded just stupid.

As expected, choosing such an extremely inconspicuous place had exhausted all the brain cells of Officer Nakamori, so much so that he was able to prepare a generator and independent lighting equipment in the hiding place to suffocate the enemy.

Qin Wuque thought to himself, "I understand that you prepared these things to prevent someone from taking away the treasures in the dark after the power is turned off, but since you have already determined that Kidd can't find this place, why are you still worried that he will turn off the power? Are you planning to start your shitty independent lighting equipment after the power is turned off?"

You might as well just take a Widow Maker and shoot it into the air a few times to let people know that you are here!

Impressed.

Thinking of this, Qin Wuque felt more and more that his move of cutting off the source of the problem was really necessary.

Shaking his head slightly, Qin Wuque took out the equipment he had taken from the hotel after he came here to check out the area - a funny cat-head mask and put it on his face.

He had also changed his clothes, from the red dragon robe of the owner of Yashe to the black windbreaker of the organization's executive department, to ensure that his identity would not be exposed.

After all the preparations were completed, Qin Wuque took a deep breath, stretched his body, and silently and seamlessly switched from strolling mode to action mode. An invisible realm was now ready to go.

But just before Qin Wuque made his move, he accidentally glanced out the window of the stairwell and was immediately stunned.

At this moment, he was at the corner of the top floor stairs of an abandoned apartment building, high enough to overlook the scenery of a large area around the apartment building. Looking into the distance, he could even see the end of the sky where the city horizon met.

Under the dark sky, Osaka, which should have been brightly lit like a city that never sleeps, seemed to have been suddenly hit by a heavy EMP. The thick fog of war began to spread in all directions at a very fast speed from a certain point as the center. Power outages occurred in buildings wherever it went. The huge Osaka City fell into complete darkness in just a few seconds, and even the street lights at the intersections were no exception.

Qin Wuque was stunned.

Are you really going to pull the plug?

And looking at the scale of the power outage...Isn't it possible that all the power plants have been blown up?

The power outage came swiftly and violently, just like the aftermath of a nuclear explosion in a movie, sweeping across Osaka at an extremely fast speed.

Qin Wuque had closed his eyes the moment before his whole body fell into darkness. At the same time, an invisible field instantly expanded with him as the center. When he opened his eyes again, his visual nerves had already adapted to the low-light environment around him.

The next second, an infinitely prolonged tone came from the room above. In the slowed-down time, it sounded like the howling of a demon. It was extremely unpleasant. If you put the two together and translate them together, the general meaning should be "power outage".

Qin Wuque dug his ears and thought that these policemen reacted quite quickly. They didn't have to wait for the power to go out for half a day before they reacted.

But he didn't plan to wait until these idiot policemen turned on the power before taking action, as that would undoubtedly attract Kidd directly.

So he just took the initiative!

In the slowed-down time, Qin Wuque rushed up the stairs in two steps and directly used his body to push open the door of the room where the sound came from.

There were three people in the room at this time, two of them were young police officers in uniform, and Inspector Nakamori was sitting cross-legged in front of the Egg of Memory, waving his hands and seemed to be giving orders.

As for the content of the orders, you can guess without thinking. It is nothing more than asking the subordinates to turn on the generator and restore the lighting equipment to normal working condition.

But... there's no way I'd let you open it.

Qin Wuque rolled his eyes and kicked the two young police officers closest to the door away. Then he rushed forward and knocked out Inspector Nakamori, who was sitting cross-legged on the ground, with a backhand knife. Finally, he picked up the egg of memories that was tightly wrapped in a wooden box from the ground with a chic posture.

All in one go.

Judging from the heavy feel of the wooden box in his hand, it should contain the Egg of Memories. However, out of distrust of the intelligence of a certain police inspector who was an expert in catching Kid, Qin Wuque still carefully opened the box and took a look, then breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, the egg of memories was indeed inside, and the pure gold statues of Emperor Nicholas and his family were also still inside.

It is genuine, for sure.

"Okay, then the next thing is..."

Just as Qin Wuque was repacking the box containing the Egg of Memory and preparing to take it back to the hotel, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a flash of fire somewhere far away outside the window.

Under normal circumstances, he might not have noticed it, but at this moment, the whole of Osaka was plunged into darkness, and the inexplicable fire became particularly conspicuous against the black background.

Qin Wuque's shoulders shook, and before he could figure out what was going on, his body had already moved subconsciously.

Time Zero automatically starts without any time difference, and a bright knife light instantly cuts through the darkness in the room.

Along with the sound of shattering window glass, a sniper bullet was suddenly split into two precise halves in front of Qin Wuque's eyes, and then split into two trajectories and penetrated deeply into the wall behind him.

Shi Kaobing, here we come!

Chapter 81 Pu Siqinglan flees in panic

It is common sense that humans cannot fight bullets head-on.

From a universal point of view, when a qualified killer realizes that he is being sniped and is lucky enough not to be hit by the first shot, no matter how important the task he is doing is, he will immediately give up what he is doing and rush towards the nearest obstacle that can serve as a cover.

But Qin Wuque refused to do so.

As the window glass of the top-floor room of the apartment building broke on a large scale, the cool night breeze suddenly poured in from outside and filled the entire room.

A short and powerful folding knife appeared in Qin Wuque's hand. The whole knife was about twenty centimeters long and emitted bits of cold light when exposed to the air.

He just used this folding knife to split a sniper bullet aimed at his right eye from hundreds of meters away into two halves, and accurately made the two split trajectories fly past both sides of his body without hurting him at all.

The deep night blocked Qin Wuque's vision and made it impossible for him to see the attacker's face clearly, but this did not prevent him from judging the direction from which the bullet came. Moreover, just before the bullet arrived, he clearly saw a flash of gunfire on the top of a building in the distance. Obviously, that was the location of the attacker.
