Chapter 66 - Scotch

Some time ago before Amamiya Yuki completely disappeared.

Conan originally wanted to try following Amamiya Yuki. But after her outbursts like that, he was scolded by Mouri Ran. By the time she finished, Amamiya Yuki was nowhere in sight.

He could only abandon this unreliable thought.

And then Conan headed out to play with the other kids.

Amuro Toru really wanted to see the interrogation of the people whom they have caught recently. Unfortunately, based on what he knew, most of them were nothing more than the peripheral members of the organization.

Some of them didn't even know the organization's existence.

The reason why they were caught at that time was nothing more than because they got involved in gang fights. Such charges wouldn't last long and Amuro Toru wanted to finish the interrogation as fast as possible.

Even if it was unlikely for them to know anything, it's better than nothing at all.

Now that they apprehended some FBI agents…

Well, these people will be released soon, which made Amuro Toru somewhat displeased. He really wanted to detain them and then deported them all back to the US.

But when he was about to go, he received a message from Morofushi Hiromitsu about his mission today. The organization was sending him to kill a certain researcher after the organization obtained the information they wanted. He had sent messages to the public security, but their deployment was found out by the organization.

Thankfully, a case happened nearby, but it wouldn't last long.

He needed Furuya Rei's help to arrange the public security officers and avoid suspicion about him.

'They made a move?' Furuya Rei's expression was not very good when he saw the confrontation between the police officers and the Black Organization.

Which one got targeted?

Oh, it was Chianti and Gin, then it's fine.

The two people were basically staying on the rooftop with their sniper rifle ready. If the police officers couldn't even see them, then they're blind. 

To be honest, their hiding position was actually quite good, but Furuya Rei was familiar with them and knew some of their habits. This way, he didn't think it was weird for the police officers to find them.

Morofushi Hiromitsu couldn't possibly contact the other police officers for further arrangements, so he called Furuya Rei and sent a code asking for help. That's why he came here, but Furuya Rei found out that the police officers on the scene were moving methodically and seemed to understand what they had to do.

Someone is commanding them.

And this person understood Gin and the others ability and temperament.

It meant that his presence would be unnecessary. 

Just as Amuro Toru was about to leave, he heard screams of murder and saw a very familiar kid had appeared. Not only that, a pink haired guy was following behind him.

Upon seeing that pink haired guy, a sense of displeasure rose up within Amuro Toru's heart involuntarily.

He disliked that guy.

"What happened?" Conan asked actively and immediately saw the corpse on the ground, which made his expression change.

The man died because of gunshots and judging from the wound injury, it had to be a sniper shot.

Who?

Akai Shuichi narrowed his eyes. "Boya, stay back this time."

Conan was stunned and then quickly looked up right at the moment when Aikawa Saki shot Gin. The gunshots sound was covered up by other noises, but the eye catching silver hair was easily found by Conan.

His expression tightened when he saw the other party.

Gin!

Someone shot Gin, but the bullet only shattered his scope and he was perfectly fine. Conan saw Gin stood up and looked in one direction like a hawk seeking his prey. 

But after a moment, he turned around and left.

"Is he the one who…?" Conan's voice lowered as he moved to the side.

On one side, he really wanted to chase after Gin. But on another side, he was afraid of the other party.

Gin is not an ordinary person.

If he dared to be reckless, what awaited him would be nothing more than death.

"No, the angle and trajectory is different. It's either someone else in the organization or someone else completely different."

Conan nodded thoughtfully.

They chose to wait for the police officers to come.

Furuya Rei found the place was blocked and then the police started to check on the most simple gunpowder reaction. Seeing this, he shook his head because he knew that their actions were not targeted enough.

The real culprit would have long fled.

Well…

Probably not with Conan around as they held three people who had positive reactions on the scene.

"I'm a police officer and I have just dealt with a bomb this afternoon, how could it not be positive?" Matsumi Ako was irritated.

Matsuda Jinpei snorted beside her, not wanting to talk.

He was dragged along because the two of them were working together not long ago. As for why he was the one chosen… blame the lottery.

Another one was Morofushi Hiromitsu who failed to get away in time and was ordered to step forward. Even though he's a codename member, his status has become lower and lower lately.

It was not a good thing.

But he didn't really shoot anyone and the reason why it's positive should be because of his training yesterday. Thankfully, he had already put away his sniper rifle somewhere.

The last one was another man who was the victim's friend. 

He claimed that he was nearby and it was absolutely impossible for him to be the one to shoot. 

Akai Shuichi glanced at Morofushi Hiromitsu with a faint smile. He naturally recognized Scotch, but he had no intention of telling his real identity.

It's one thing to call through the phone and meet in real life.

[AHH, it's Scotch!]

[He's really alive!]

[Wait, he wouldn't be caught by others, right?]

[An undercover agent was being caught… Pfft, I want to laugh now]

[Don't be so happy, don't you know that some agents would not be recognized by their agency?]

[Seriously?]

[Dark history of agents~]

[Nooo, it won't happen on Scotch!]
