Vermouth was relieved for the time being.

Why would Gin suddenly attack the Mouri Detective Agency? As for what Cointo said, just be a little cautious, and if it really happens, we'll just have to adapt to the situation as he suggested.

But then again, as far as she knew, no one had informed Jundu about this operation.

Chapter 361: Have you fallen out with Cointreau?

"We've already guessed the DJ's identity, but where exactly is Eddie P?"

The yellow Volkswagen Beetle drove through the rain.

There's now another blonde, blue-eyed woman in the back seat of the car.

Judy Sterling.

Conan accidentally encountered Rena Mizunashi while tracking her—because Rena Mizunashi had met Vermouth, who was disguised as Tomoaki Araide, several times, the FBI was now also watching and tracking Rena Mizunashi.

According to the information heard through the bugging device, Conan and his friends discovered that Gin and his group referred to their target as DJ, and that the hunting ground where they took action against the target was Eddie P.

“If you keep following their car, they'll easily spot you, but if you get too far away, they'll immediately get their hands on you…”

Judy was troubled by this.

With the time for Gin and his group to make their move drawing ever closer, Conan lowered his head, deep in thought.

"Are you still going to try to maintain your dignity as a detective at a time like this?"

Ai Haibara glanced at him.

"What do you mean?" Judy looked down.

“…There’s someone who can definitely guess the code easily,” Ai Haibara said.

"Of course I can prioritize, and I sent him the code two minutes ago."

"That's what Conan replied."

When lives are at stake, he certainly won't be bound by the so-called desire to win if there's a shortcut available—Conan had already sent the code that needed to be deciphered to Hayashi Yoshiki.

Who is it?

Only Judy felt like she had been kept in the dark. She was a little surprised: "Is he reliable? And this could be very dangerous."

"Don't worry, he's definitely the most reliable person."

As Conan finished speaking, his phone lit up. "Oh, it's here."

The text message directly stated the answer as "Beihu Park".

The abbreviation "Eddie" in English usually stands for "Edward."

Edward Hyde is a character from the 19th-century science fiction novel *Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde*, and Hyde is actually Beihu.

The Japanese words "杯户" and "海德" are homophones.

After receiving the answer, Judy suddenly realized what was going on.

As the group hurried toward Beika Park, Yoshiki Hayashi was also busy.

"You observed that he had already passed that intersection, right?"

"Okay, you don't need to keep an eye on it anymore."

"Come back to me quickly."

After exchanging a few brief words, Lin Jiashu hung up the phone.

He then looked at the notebook in his hand.

Thanks to the Noah's Ark invasion, Lin Jiashu had access to a lot of information on the assassins on the assassin platform. However, when using the Death Note to control them, Lin Jiashu always had to be careful. Even the results of the Noah's Ark investigation could not guarantee that there would be no mistakes. If they were not real names, it would be troublesome if he could not move the pieces he wanted to use to the place he needed.

Therefore, Lin Jiashu would occasionally ask Pu Siqinglan and the others to keep an eye on whether the people whose names were written on the document would take any action.

Now all you have to do is wait.

As originally planned, when Gin and his friends were about to take action against Tsuchimon Yasuharu at Beika Park, Conan and his friends destroyed the park's sprinkler system, causing passersby to think it was raining.

The target was covered by an umbrella, making it difficult to take action, so a different plan had to be devised.

Conan and his friends deduced the organization's next target location and learned that Vermouth would be leading the charge. The FBI then decided to take action to capture Vermouth, who was riding a Harley-Davidson motorcycle alone.

Surprisingly, the person under the motorcycle helmet was actually Rena Mizunashi—she was thrown from her bike and fell unconscious, bleeding profusely from her head, while trying to avoid a child who had run onto the main road to retrieve a ball.

At the same time, Gin also discovered the listening device on the shoes that Rena Mizunashi left in the car after changing clothes.

The moment Gin saw this thing, a sinister smile gradually appeared on his face.

"The mission has been canceled."

"We need to change our goals next."

Rather than pulling out the nails that were taking up space to make way for the organization's henchmen, killing rats was definitely more interesting for Gin.

Vermouth's heart skipped a beat as she rode her motorcycle halfway down the road.

"Change the target? Why would you do something like this out of the blue?"

"Stop talking nonsense, I've already obtained that person's permission. The next target is the Mori Detective Agency in Beika-cho 5-chome."

Instantly, Vermouth's heart tightened.

As expected, it's the Mori Detective Agency—

Just like what Cointreau said!

Did he anticipate that Gin would suddenly change his target?

Vermouth couldn't understand it, but hearing Gin's cheerful yet murderous tone, she immediately realized that the situation was not good.

"The Mori Detective Agency? Is the target that Mori Detective?"

Vermouth feigned nonchalance, then before Gin could reply, she asked, "Did you and Cointreau fall out?"

"What does Guan Jundu have to do with this?" Chianti's voice came through the earpiece.

Vermouth chuckled a few times.

"Chianti, you've always had designs on Cointreau, but you had no idea he was close to Kogoro Mouri?"

"ha?"

Chianti was taken aback.

At that moment, Gin's cold voice came again: "Never mind that for now. Kogoro Mouri has planted a transmitter and a bugging device in Kir's shoe. Go there immediately."

Just as I expected...

That guy, Qin Tongjiu, will eliminate anyone who is detrimental to the organization.

Even if Jundu intervened at this point, it would probably be of no use.

Vermouth abandoned the motorcycle and got into the car that Gin and Vodka had come to pick her up.

"I think you'd better think this over carefully, and why Kogoro Mouri?"

"According to the report, he was the only person who had contact with Kiel before us today."

As Gin spoke, his expression grew even more somber than usual. "Furthermore, Gil has also disappeared... It's probably that detective's doing."

Kogoro Mouri, that guy has a very close relationship with Cointreau.

Gin didn't suspect Yoshiki Hayashi, but problems must be investigated and eliminated... Maybe the detective noticed something was wrong with Jundo and thus became aware of the organization's existence?

If that's the case, then we can't let Kogoro Mouri exist any longer.

"Shouldn't we inform Cointreau about this?"

Vermouth said, "Is this something that concerns him, or do you suspect that Cointreau is involved in this?"

"Shut up, I haven't destroyed the bug yet."

Gin wrapped the listening device in several layers of cloth and put it in his pocket, but if they talked too loudly, the conversation might be overheard.

Chianti was still chattering away in her headset.

"What does Guan Jundu want?"

"So you want to kill everyone connected to him? Wait, should we tell Jundu about this?"

Because she talked too much, Gin simply turned off his headset.

Vermouth took the opportunity to inform Hayashi Yoshiki about the matter.

Chapter 362: Cointreau Calls Gin a Pig (Part 2)

In the Mouri Detective Agency, Kogoro Mouri stared intently at the small television on his desk, even leaning forward and hugging it with both hands.

terrible!

That's terrifying!

For some reason, he won all his horse bets today!

He has accumulated eleven consecutive wins since the first round after he placed his bet!

"Could it be that the god of horse racing has finally smiled upon me!?"

Kogoro Mouri couldn't help but raise his hands and cheer.

In that very second, the television screen in front of him suddenly turned into static.

Kogoro Mori slammed the TV several times, but to no avail, so he got angry and started stomping his feet.

This scene was witnessed by Gin and the others on the distant rooftop.

Chianti, who was holding a sniper rifle, couldn't help but laugh.

"This guy is actually Jundu's uncle? I just broke the TV antenna and he got that angry."

"Hey, it looks like there's something stuffed in Kogoro Mouri's ear."

After noticing that Kogoro Mouri wasn't responding to the TV, Cohen sat down, picked up a newspaper, and put his earphones in his ears.

This move inevitably made Gin and his team think of a bugging device.

After a moment's thought, Gin took out the bugging device.

Although he's someone with close ties to Jundu, he won't hold back... but there are still things that need to be clarified.

"Did you hear that, Kogoro Mouri?"

“I’ve got my eye on you from behind. I have something to ask you before you get a hole punched in your suit.”

As he spoke, he glanced at Kogoro Mouri to observe his reaction: "What was your reason for installing this bugging device? You have ten seconds. If you intend to answer, take your left hand off the earpiece and raise it upwards."

"10...9...8..."

Gin's cold countdown entered Conan's earpiece.

A suffocating sense of oppression made Conan's face turn ashen, while Jodie Starling stared intently at the increasingly close Mouri Detective Agency—

What should I do?

Even if they manage to get to the Mouri Detective Agency before the countdown, they won't be able to catch up with Gin and the others' bullets!

Under intense tension, James Black pressed the accelerator pedal firmly.

Gin's countdown reached six seconds.

Vermouth remained silent, her heart filled with anxiety.

What exactly is Cointreau doing?

Since this situation was anticipated, why not tell her the truth and let her adapt to the situation?

"Hey, Gin."

Finally, she couldn't sit still any longer and spoke up.

Gin's cold eyes glanced over.

Seeing that Vermouth had something to say, he tightened his grip and covered the microphone.

"Aren't you going to consider informing Jundu?" Vermouth said casually. "Don't blame me for not reminding you, the reason Jundu attacked me was because I made a joke about the people around him."

"..."

Gin's cold gaze remained unwavering.
