Chapter 408: Provoking
Chapter 408: Provoking
"Ouch... What happened to me? My head hurts." Ten minutes later, the man woke up slowly. He wanted to rub his aching forehead, but found that his hands were trapped and fixed to a wooden chair. Not only his hands, but also his legs. It took the man about ten seconds to realize who had kidnapped him.

"Awake?" I asked the policeman who was checking the listening devices in the room, sensing that he had woken up. "You are not so good in the police station? You don't get any special treatment." In ten minutes, I checked the man's room. The listening devices had been destroyed by me, and the weapons I found were only a police pistol, two pairs of handcuffs, two spare pistols issued by the organization, a flash bomb, and a box of hidden poison capsules.

"Who are you?" The middle-aged uncle's face was gloomy at this time. He knew the child in front of him, the one he had just seen in the elevator. The man also identified me as a young killer of the organization at the first time, otherwise an ordinary child would never be able to take me down so cleanly.

Even if he was a peripheral member, those who were sent undercover would have some basic skills in fighting. To be able to knock him down so quickly, he must be a key talent in the organization. "No matter whose subordinate you are, I advise you not to use force against me. I am Sister Vermouth's man!"

"Haha, what a coincidence, me too." I smiled disdainfully. "Although it was once."

"Who... are you? Big sister doesn't have anyone like you under her command!" The middle-aged man was not stupid. Although he was just an ordinary peripheral member, due to the special nature of his job, he was familiar with the information of at least 80% of the peripheral members of the organization. As for the internal killers and top officials, they all had their own contact codes. As long as the other party said it, the man would know it, and the code would be changed regularly. As a liaison in the police station, he could not prevent personnel changes of his superiors, so the young killer in front of him could not be a subordinate of Vermouth.

"I said it was once." I didn't care about what the man said, but continued to check his room. He was going to die today anyway. "Tell me, where is the current organization's base moved to? Where is the place where you meet regularly?"

"Defector? So young?" The middle-aged man quickly reacted. But he still couldn't believe it. The child in front of him was only seven or eight years old at most. How could he defect? ​​At this age, he should be a young rookie who had been trained for one or two years at most. Apart from the genius young killer who appeared ten years ago, he had never heard of anyone like him in the organization.

"I'll ask you again, where is the organization's base now? Where is your scheduled meeting place?"

"Hehe, if you are really a member of the organization, you should know that I won't say anything." The middle-aged man is very loyal to the organization.

"Yes, I have no handle on you, no means to threaten you, and you won't believe in such things as large sums of money as inducement. You should also know that you can't survive today, right?" I pulled a chair and sat opposite the middle-aged man and said calmly.

"Oh, although I don't know who you are, but now that I'm in your hands, I have no intention of living to see the next day's sunrise. However, you don't have to try to get any information from me. My elder sister has treated me well, and I will not betray her!"

Indeed, this is the style of the organization. The middle-aged man knew that I would not let him live through tonight, so he chose to keep silent. This middle-aged man should be a spy that Vermouth had planted in the police station for a long time. It was precisely because he knew the style of his eldest sister that he did not have to guess that this child was definitely not arranged to silence him. After all, he had just met his eldest sister during the day today.

Since he was not sent to silence the witnesses and did not know the current situation of the organization, the identity of this child could only be a defector. But he could not imagine how such a young defector could exist. So he simply stopped thinking about it.

"This is my apartment. If I start to yell now, you will kill me instantly. But you don't have to torture me. You can't do it in this environment. As long as I yell, you will..."

bang~
Before the man could finish his words, I shot him in the forehead with a gun with a silencer.

He is useless, a subordinate who will never speak and is loyal to his master. Vermouth has the ability to have such a person to work for him. Since I can't get anything out of him and he won't speak, there is no point in keeping him. Kill him and erase all the evidence. Then just send someone to keep an eye on him and wait for the contact person to come. This will attract the attention of the organization. And the direction of blaming is of course the FBI. After finishing things here, I have to stop the FBI informant. But two policemen died in the police station within two days. I believe the police should have noticed some problems, right? But it's also good this way. The three parties are disrupting the situation, which is still very beneficial to me.

Letting the two sides fight each other when neither the FBI nor the organization noticed me would be a good way to divert attention, which would be good for both me and Shiho. But some things do need more consideration, such as why Vermouth disguised as Tomoaki Aida, and why Judy came to Xiaolan's school. Does Akai's appearance mean that they are really going to confront Vermouth head-on? The last point... Should I jump out?

"Recently, two police officers were killed one after another. The whereabouts of the murderer is still unknown. We hope that the general public can be more vigilant and notify the police immediately if they find any suspicious persons. The police chief Juzo Megure said that he will arrest the criminal as soon as possible."

Two days later, Xiaolan was invited by Sonoko to go shopping with Conan and me. On the side of the road, Sonoko was reading the report that had just been sent to her mobile phone with a worried look on her face. "Two policemen were killed in a row. Officer Takagi and Officer Sato should be okay, right?"

"That's right. My dad has been to the police station a lot these days because of this. I hope this case can be solved quickly." Xiaolan was also very worried. After all, she had been running around the police station with her dad since she was a child. Although her father has resigned, he is always the first to find out the situation once there is a problem in the police station. In addition, she has many acquaintances in the police department. Officer Takagi, Officer Sato, Officer Chiba and so on can all be considered familiar people. Xiaolan would not feel good if any of these people had a problem. "Kaoru, do you know about this?" Conan asked me in a low voice. "The death of those two policemen happened after our bus incident. Could it be the organization?"

"Maybe." That night I let Conan leave first, and the reason I gave him was that I needed to deal with the aftermath of whether the organization would investigate us. This tricked Conan in. I also had time to kill the two people one after another. Of course, the reason for killing the FBI the next day was to find Shiho. I also discussed this with Shiho and asked her to keep it secret for me. "It's been two days since the incident, and the criminal hasn't been caught yet. Your idea is very likely. But I really can't think of why."

"I hope it's not them." Conan sighed. It seems that he didn't suspect me. "So, what about the tail of the organization?"

"No, I deployed informants for two days, and no suspicious people appeared." I shook my head. "Maybe we were too nervous, and the organization didn't find me and Shiho at all. That time might have been an accident."

"But who on earth could make you so nervous? Don't you have a very high position in the organization?"

"Ah, maybe someone transferred from another branch?" I didn't want to talk about this topic at all. After all, the person who showed up this time was Vermouth. If Gin had gotten on that bus, I guess I could have just dragged the kids off the bus and watched the fight between Akai and Gin. Hmm? You mean the three robbers? I guess they were shot by Gin before they even started the hijacking.

"Hey? Isn't that Officer Yumi from the Traffic Police?" Just as Conan and I were still whispering in the back, Sonoko and Xiaolan saw a parked police car in front of them. Through the car window, they saw that the person sitting inside was Officer Yumi Miyamoto, whom they knew. It seemed that she was on patrol. So the two of them ran over, probably to ask Miyamoto something.

"Hmm? Are you talking about the two dead policemen?" Yumi didn't hide anything because she was very familiar with Xiaolan and the others. She put her chin on her hand and began to analyze. "Actually, this matter is quite strange. The two dead policemen were both logistics personnel, and there was no special connection between the two policemen. If there is any connection, it is that the presence of these two policemen in the police station is not very good."

"Not popular?" Conan muttered in the background.

"Well, whether it's Officer Teng Yue or Officer Xun Wen, neither of them has a very good relationship with others. They have a mediocre relationship with every officer, but they are both very capable. When it comes to support and data retrieval, they hardly cause too much obstacles to the officers and will cooperate quickly. They are the kind of people who have strong working abilities but a bad temper. So in the police station, apart from work, no one wants to communicate with them too much."

"Eh? That's it."

"But now that they're dead, we don't know what expression to use to deal with this matter." Yumi looked embarrassed.

"I think all you need to do is smile." An unscrupulous voice sounded from behind Xiaolan.

"That's enough, little brat!" Yuanzi raised her hand and tapped me on the head. "What kind of joke are you playing at? Two policemen are dead now."

"Well, well, it's okay." Miyamoto Yumi waved her hand and smiled. "In fact, after the two policemen died, there was not much impact in the police station. It was just because both of them were shot, so the police station assigned two officers transferred from the Osaka headquarters to investigate the matter. Even the people in the first department did not intervene in this matter."

"Special personnel investigation?" Conan was startled again, and then turned to look at me, but I just shrugged, saying that I didn't know if they were from the organization, but I would find someone to keep an eye on these two people, and it was hard to say which side they were on. Before I figured it out, I couldn't act rashly.

"In that case, Officer Sato and Officer Takagi shouldn't be bothered by this case, right?" Xiaolan asked with lingering fear. After all, not long ago, Sato had been almost fatally injured by Xiaolan, and Xiaolan had always been grateful for that, so she didn't want Officer Sato to be injured again.

"Haha, don't worry, no one in the first department is dealing with this matter, and Miwako hasn't been affected at all. Let me tell you, Miwako even went on a blind date today!"

"Eh?!!!!" X4
