Conan Rick's Investigator

"Okay, let's go to Beihu Park now. Don't delay the interview."

……

Beihu Park, parking lot.

Conan, who was eager to save Qin, finally came up with a good idea on the lawn.

Although there was no way to directly notify Qin Zhibo of the danger, he could create some "marks" to allow Qin Zhibo in the car to notice the Porsche 356A parked opposite.

With such a cool and retro car model and a black body, it should be clear that people from the organization are also in the parking lot, right?

Conan hurried back to Haibara Ai and told her his thoughts.

"I'm going to tie the hydrogen balloon to the back of Gin's car, so when Qin Zhibo sees the rising hydrogen balloon, he'll notice something's wrong."

"I'll go by myself later, you wait here."

"If I don't come back within five minutes, leave here immediately, go find Dr. Agasa, and call the police."

After saying that, Conan left without looking back.

Ai Haibara, who stayed where she was, looked at Conan anxiously as he walked away, and silently started a 300-second countdown in her heart.

Conan first has to find the hydrogen balloon.

But since he could think of this method, it means he already knew where this thing was.

Right at the main entrance of Beihu Park, there are vendors selling hydrogen balloons here for a long time. They are all cartoon hydrogen balloons for children to hold in their hands and play with.

Conan finally found a bean man balloon among the pile of balloons, bought it for 500 yen, and then borrowed a marker from the vendor.

A black marker drew a triangle on the yellow balloon and a huge exclamation mark in the middle.

In this way, Qin Zhibo would not mistakenly think that this was just an ordinary balloon, and the warning symbol on it would remind him to be careful of Gin's car.

"Thank you uncle!"

Conan quickly returned to the parking lot with the balloon, bent down, and quietly moved towards the Porsche 356A.

Gin's car was parked near another exit, with a relatively open view, and if he was not careful, he might be discovered.

But for Qin Zhibo, Conan decided to take the risk.

Besides, even if I tied the balloons to the back of the Porsche and Gin found out, he would probably think it was just a child's prank...

Right?

Conan was like a thief, holding a balloon in one hand, his body pressed against the rear of each car, quietly approaching the black Porsche.

Right away.

Coming soon!

But at this moment, Conan suddenly felt a sharp gaze behind him.

His neck subconsciously turned back, and he saw a scene that was extremely familiar to him and that he would never forget in his life.

Gin's tall figure was standing behind him!

It's gin!

Finished!

His sharp eyes stared straight at Conan, whose face was distorted in horror, and his powerful palms patted his neck without hesitation.

"Well……"

Conan hunched over, immediately lost consciousness, and fell to the ground.

As he lost consciousness, the balloon in his hand loosened and slowly rose into the sky.

……

On the other side of the parking lot, Haibara Ai was still counting 300 seconds in her heart.

The final evacuation time was getting closer, but suddenly, she saw a hydrogen balloon slowly rising above a parking lot.

A large warning symbol was painted on the surface of the balloon.

That's Kudo's balloon!

Haibara Ai immediately realized this, her eyes filled with fear, and fear and anxiety quickly grew and fermented in her small body.

Kudo was caught by Gin!

Haibara Ai almost fell down on the grass in fear. Her brain unconsciously recalled Conan's death, and she trembled with fear.

How to do?

What should we do now?

Kudo is gone, Kudo is gone...

Haibara Ai panicked and wanted to save Conan, but her body was moving away from the parking lot uncontrollably and she stumbled towards the exit of the parking lot.

Seeing the fortune-telling hermit setting up a stall at the door, Huibara Ai panicked and lifted the red cloth and crawled under the divination table, like an ostrich sensing danger, burying its head in the ground regardless of everything.

Escape is shameful, but useful.

Although Haibara Ai chose to face her fate on the night of the full moon last time, she was facing Vermouth that time, and she dared to go only after making mental preparations for several days and out of the belief of saving her companions.

But now Kudo has been caught by Gin, and he is "down twice", so he is dead.

What about yourself?

What should I do?

Ai Haibara huddled tremblingly in the small space under the table, hugging her knees. It was extremely dark, but it gave her a sense of security.

Suddenly, a beam of light shone in from above, and the hermit with a delicate jaw lifted the tablecloth and looked at the little girl hiding inside in surprise.

"What are you doing hiding here?"

"Please... please let me hide for a moment, please..."

Seeing Huibara begging pitifully with fear in her eyes, although Koizumi Hongzi was still confused, she put the tablecloth down silently.

The kid was a little eccentric, but now was not the time to worry about that.

Her hands stroked the surface of the magic crystal ball, and the various colors in the crystal ball emerged one by one, together painting a picture.

This is in a car.

There were two men sitting in the front seat of the car. One of the men had blond hair and a cold expression on his face, and the man next to him had a silly face and was wearing sunglasses.

And in the back seat of the car, there was a woman, and the very sight of her sitting with her legs crossed made her look extremely charming.

Koizumi Hongzi: "Hmm?"

As the most beautiful woman in the world (as sealed by the magic mirror), Koizumi Akako thought that no one could challenge her beauty. Unexpectedly, this woman's beauty even made her feel a little unbelievable.

Is there a woman in the world who is more beautiful than me?

I'm so angry!

Koizumi Akako felt a little angry, just like the evil queen who found out that Snow White existed in this world.

But she had not forgotten the important matter and turned her attention back to the cold-blooded man in the front row.

She took out a sewing kit, cloth, and a palm-sized straw doll from the small bag beside her, and started doing handicrafts by imitating the cold man.

……

On the rooftop of the building, Qin Zhibo stared at the park below through the scope.

At 1 p.m., the TV station's news van drove into the park parking lot, and Rena Mizunashi and three TV station staff members got out.

Five minutes later, a silver-white car drove into the parking lot and the target "DJ" got out of the car, accompanied by two bodyguards.

The driver did not get out of the car, probably staying in it to prevent someone from planting a bomb.

The two groups met in the parking lot and walked towards the park together.

I lost sight for a while, and when I reappeared, the group had already reached the center of the park and were talking about something.

The same scene was also captured by Gin, who was sitting in the Porsche, through the pocket camera on Rena Mizunashi.

On the screen, Domon Yasuteru faced Mizunashi Rena, smiled, and whispered, "If I accept the interview, you should also agree to that thing, right?"

"Yes, of course no problem." Rena Mizunashi replied in the voice-over.

Gin grinned slightly and directed Mizunashi Rena via the microphone remote control, "Okay, Kiel, just take the DJ to the agreed location."

Vodka: "It looks like we can capture some pretty stunning footage, but it's a shame we can't broadcast it live..."

The organization's purpose in assassinating Domon Yasuteru was to prevent a hardliner from rising to power and hindering the organization. If Domon's death could be broadcast live, it would serve as a deterrent to other hardliners.

On the other side, Rena Mizuno heard Gin's voice through the headset, and her heart suddenly trembled.

This is a human life, are we going to die in vain?

If it weren't for Qin Zhibo, Mizuno Rena would have no choice but to kill Domon according to the plan because there was no other way.

But now that she has a "companion", she still has to kill people according to the organization's plan, which makes her feel a little unwilling.

"Miss Mizuno? What's wrong with you?"

While Rena Mizunashi was stunned, Yasuteru Domon had already leaned over to ask.

Mizunashi Reina quickly came to her senses and said in a gentle voice, "It doesn't seem right to talk while standing. Why don't we find a place to sit down?"

"Or, just choose the bench over there..."

The closest location to here is an empty bench in front of the lawn, which is perfect for an interview.

“Haha, this is good.”

Yasuteru Domon laughed heartily, walked to the bench first, and sat down with a very upright posture.

"Okay, now we can start..."

Piu——

At the same time, Qin Zhibo on the distant building immediately pulled the trigger, and a bullet spurted out from the muzzle.

Just a moment later, Domon Yasuteru, who was sitting on the bench, paused and fell to the ground, with blood oozing from his scalp!

Chapter 957 Gin: I haven’t gotten in the car yet!

On the park bench, before the people around him could react to what had happened, Yasuteru Domon's body had already fallen to the ground.

Blood oozes out from the holes in the scalp.

"Mr. Domon!"

"There's a sniper nearby! Be alert!"

The two professionally trained bodyguards were the first to react and immediately realized from the angle of the bullet that it was a sniper.

The two of them used their strong bodies to block Yasuteru Domon who was lying on the ground, protecting the important figures from secondary injuries.

"Mr. Domon has been shot, come and support immediately!"

The two bodyguards used wireless communication devices to contact two other followers in the parking lot to come for support.

"what--!"

Rena Mizunashi next to her let out an exaggerated scream that was somewhat acting-like, and was about to run away in fright when Gin's cold command came through the earphone.

"Kil, go over and take a look. Let me confirm DJ's death with my own eyes."

There was no other way, Rena Mizunashi could only bite the bullet and do as she was told. She found a good angle and walked forward, aiming the pocket camera on her chest at the miserable condition of Yasuteru Domon.

Bright red blood flowed from his head, staining a small area of floor tiles red. It looked as if he was deader than dead.

Gin stared at the screen for a few seconds before finally confirming that Yasuteru Domon was dead.

"DJ is dead. Michael, Chianti, Cohen, retreat."

At the same time that Gin gave the order, the two Domon followers who stayed in the parking lot were running towards Haido Park at full speed.

Two figures ran past the Porsche 356A, completely unaware that the mastermind of the assassination was sitting in the car next to them.
