Isn't it very scientific to use the Death Note to kill people?

At that moment, Carmel's car drove directly from the sidewalk into the middle of the road.

He didn't know exactly what Lin Jiashu meant by the illogical driving behavior, but drifting should count, right?

With his left arm aching terribly and completely exhausted, Carmel jerked the steering wheel and pulled the handbrake. The red sedan swerved sharply in the middle of the road, its tires screeching against the pavement.

The cars that were about to pass were taken aback by his inexplicable actions and slammed on their brakes for fear of a collision.

Suddenly, all sorts of loudspeakers blared incessantly.

After quickly circling twice, the red car left only some unsightly tire tracks on the ground before swiftly passing through the intersection.

Gin and his group can now be seen.

"What's going on? Has that guy gone mad?"

Vodka couldn't understand the other person's irrational behavior.

Gin scoffed.

He knew very well what Lin Jiashu's plan was, so Carmel's actions were as ridiculous as a monkey in his eyes. After hearing the other party's plan, Gin even felt sorry for the FBI guys... The rats who lost Akai Shuichi could never have imagined that everything today was a good show written and directed by the guy who would be treated as an honored guest in the future in order to gain his trust!

The distillery staff are still pursuing them.

By this time, Lin Jiashu had returned to his car. While listening to Judy's report on the current situation, he started the car and drove out of the department store's underground parking garage.

"There's good news."

"At the third traffic light, patrolling traffic police will come out to stop the traffic. You don't need to worry about them; they will let you pass directly."

—In order to gain greater trust from the FBI.

This was the explanation Hayashi Yoshiki gave to Gin, but what no one knew was that his target was always Amuro Tooru.

as predicted……

When Hayashi Yoshiki's voice came through speakerphone to Amuro Tooru's ears, it immediately made him pay attention.

Traffic police?

Why are traffic police cooperating with the operation now?

Because the incident happened so suddenly, this shouldn't have been a pre-arranged situation... In other words, the people who appeared there were probably traffic police who were patrolling the surrounding area.

Did Lin Jiashu manage to do this by using his position as a consultant on the special task force?

But from any perspective, it seems too efficient.

Carmel's car sped through the intersection.

Through the rearview mirror, you can see the traffic police blowing their whistles and making a stop signal, forcefully stopping all the vehicles at the intersection. Amuro Tooru gradually narrowed his eyes.

Chapter 408: Amuro Tooru's Suspicion

The dike-to-the-ferry bridge is an important passage spanning the dike-to-the-ferry river.

On the grassy areas on both sides of the Tsutsumi River, a few hundred meters away from the Tsutsumi Bridge, some citizens gathered to leisurely sunbathe and take a stroll on Saturday.

It's a beautiful day today.

The sun is shining brightly, and the breeze is pleasant.

Although it can get a bit cold in winter, this is the good weather we've finally gotten after several days of overcast skies.

On such a leisurely afternoon, the people along the Tsutsumi River did not hear the crashing sound on the Tsutsumi Bridge, but they did notice the towering flames that suddenly surged up on the bridge.

Then came a loud bang.

"what happens?"

"Fire..."

Did something explode?

The citizens watched the scene in astonishment and took out their phones to take pictures.

The violent explosion just now nearly shattered the sturdy bridge deck, with flames raging... The citizens standing on the riverbank had no idea what a tragic scene the bridge deck was in at that moment: the charred wreckage of an overturned small oil tanker lay precariously on the broken bridge deck, teetering on the water's surface; cars caught in the explosion had just been thrown into the air and landed on the ground, burned to nothing but wreckage. Amidst this horrific scene, screams and panicked car horns still echoed incessantly.

boom!

boom!!

Several explosions could be heard from time to time amidst the flames.

Many drivers who narrowly escaped being caught in the wreckage reversed their vehicles to get away from the collapsed bridge, but upon seeing the traffic jam behind them, some simply abandoned their cars and fled.

"The explosion was a bit far from them, bro, they're not dead!"

Vodka looked at the red car driving across the bridge through his binoculars, his voice filled with astonishment.

"Did you fail, Jundu?"

Cohen, who was slowly following behind, was somewhat surprised.

"No, this is exactly what he wanted."

Looking at the raging fire, Gin picked up the car cigarette lighter and lit a cigarette with great interest.

Hearing that this was still within Cointreau's calculations, Vodka exclaimed, "Huh?"

Gin exhaled a puff of smoke.

Gin had long considered using illogical actions to disrupt Junto's calculations and escape his accidental killings.

It has a considerable success rate, but it's not realistic at all.

The most fatal aspect of Cointreau's method of killing is that no one knows when the accident will happen. Only when the two FBI agents knew in advance that "an accident was going to kill them" could they do this.

in other words,

Unless you spend your whole life being an eccentric who does everything illogically, you might not be able to escape Jundu's designs.

But if it happens too often, Cointreau might find an opportunity in it.

"This is really..."

Vermouth, who arrived leisurely on her Harley-Davidson motorcycle, looked at the distant fire with a sigh.

From any perspective, that man was far too dangerous.

the other side,

Judy, still in shock after escaping, gasped for breath. Having experienced it firsthand, she found it difficult to describe what had just happened!

She saw it clearly in the rearview mirror when she was crossing that bridge.

A small truck suddenly suffered a tire blowout and veered off course. At the same time, a road sign inexplicably fell off, causing the cars below to instinctively swerve to avoid it. A series of inexplicable coincidences led to a car accident, which caused an innocent passing small tanker truck to overturn and explode... The unseen culprit terrified Judy.

What terrified her the most was that even though they had done so many unexpected and traffic-affecting things, the accident still happened very close to them!

"What exactly is that?"

Carmel was also quite shocked.

If he hadn't followed instructions and made so many inexplicable movements that disrupted traffic, and if he hadn't been listening to the constant "unexpected" sounds on the phone, he might actually have thought it was just a simple accident.

Once he realized he was safe, he steered his car back into traffic, but soon heard a cacophony of urgent police sirens.

Most police cars rushed to the Tikxiangjin Bridge to maintain order and assist the ambulance in the rescue, but soon several police cars drove straight to the bridge and intercepted Judy and her group.

"Hello, I am Miwako Sato from the First Investigation Division. Please cooperate with us and come to the Metropolitan Police Department."

The woman who got out of the police car walked over with a brisk pace, holding a gun in one hand and a police ID in the other, and said solemnly.

"us……"

"Oh! We'll cooperate!! Officer."

Carmel was about to reveal his FBI affiliation when Judy quickly interrupted him.

Under Miwako Sato's stern and wary gaze, Judy raised her hands, and Carmel could only obediently raise his hands in surrender.

At Sato Miwako's request, they quickly got out of the car—including Amuro Tooru, who was impersonating Akai Shuichi.

Sato Miwako immediately called for other police officers.

The three were then put into different police cars. Judy looked at "Shuichi Akai" sitting in the police car and seemed to want to say something, but was ignored by Miwako Sato.

The car started.

As the police car carrying two FBI agents fell behind, Amuro Tooru removed his mask, revealing his true face, and said:

"They arrived just in time."

"Yes, because Mr. Furuya told me that you were disguised like this, I volunteered to participate in this operation."

She can be quite clever at times.

Amuro Tooru felt a sense of relief as he watched Kazami Yuya drive with a serious expression.

With this trusted confidant helping him, things were much easier for him, and it would be easier to extricate himself later—his original plan was to point a gun at Judy's head and simply walk away.

This also serves as a wake-up call for the poor woman, waking her from her sweet dream.

"Kazemi".

"Yes."

"Help me investigate the movements of the 'Accidental Killer' task force, and also, whose orders did the traffic police near the Tsuda Road intersection receive at 15:47 PM?"

Amuro Tooru's tone was clear: "Also, check the traffic light signal control and other situations on the same section of road around 15:53 PM. Remember, investigate as deeply as you can, and if necessary, say it was my request."

"Ok."

Kazami Yuya nodded seriously.

Amuro Tooru lowered his head in thought.

He needed to know whether the police's overt and covert cooperation was ordered by Hayashi Yoshiki through his role as an advisor to Odagiri Toshiro, or through other methods...

If it's the latter—

The thought of a certain possibility made Amuro Tooru unable to help but raise the corners of his mouth.

"Lin Jiashu..."

…………

Ugh, when will this private message feature be finished? (Looking up at the sky)

Chapter 409: Unbelievably Smooth

Judy and Carmel, who were taken to the Metropolitan Police Department, were quickly placed in solitary confinement and interrogated.

The interrogation was conducted by personnel from the Ministry of Public Security.

In fact, Sato Miwako, who brought the people back, was not very clear about the identities of these foreigners. She only vaguely knew that they were related to the recent highway shootout and the explosion at Tsutsumi-no-Tsu Bridge, but now the Ministry of Public Security would be in full charge.

Upon learning of the situation, James Black quickly rushed over to rescue the person.

The FBI does not have transnational law enforcement powers. Although it sometimes cooperates internationally with police and security agencies in host countries, this is limited to coordination work and requires prior communication.

Judy didn't know exactly what James had discussed with the Japanese police; she only knew that the police didn't open the gate guarding her until it got dark.

Where's the show?

Upon seeing James, Judy became somewhat anxious.

James adjusted his glasses: "Don't worry, I've already discussed it with the people in Japan, I'll go find them now."

The officer who led the way opened the room where Carmel was being held.

The burly man with the fierce appearance had his gunshot wound on his shoulder treated. He nodded to his two companions and obediently returned to his unit.

Next up is Shuichi Akai's room.

However, when they reached the door of that room, the three of them immediately turned pale.

——Empty.

In the empty temporary detention center, only a crumpled object remained on the gray floor. The officer leading the way picked it up in astonishment and discovered that it was a thin mask covered with gruesome burn marks.

"Human face mask..."

"That guy, he really was a fake!?"
