After a moment of silence, Judy and Conan prepared to drive back to Beika City.

"Judy, don't we have to wait for Shuichi Akai?"

"No, he's 'not here', he will go back by himself."

"Then, what should we do next?"

"Well... To be honest, I am also a little confused about the current situation. Why did that Belmode suddenly choose to go abroad? According to our understanding of her, even if she already knew our plan, she would not leave without doing anything.

What's more, except for us, even the other members of the FBI didn't know that Shuichi Akai would come to participate in this mission... Why would Belmode choose to go abroad at this time?"

Hearing this, Conan lowered his head and thought.

According to Judy, this member of the organization named Belmode is a very tricky guy. From the beginning, they were prepared that Belmode would discover their "plan" and turn against them.

Therefore, the real killer of their plan is actually the "FBI trump card-Shuichi Akai" in Judy's mouth.

According to the plan, Vermouth should have someone ambush them at the port. They will take advantage of this and let Shuichi Akai ambush here in advance, let him act in secret, eliminate the organization's people, and arrest Vermouth.

——It should have been like this.

Could it be that Vermouth already knew the news that Shuichi Akai was ambushing here, so he chose to go abroad?

Impossible! Except for him and Teacher Judy, no one knew that Shuichi Akai would participate in this plan, let alone leak the news.

Conan grabbed a handful of hair helplessly: "Since it is not our problem, could it be the problem of that organization? Something went wrong over there?"

Teacher Judy thought for a while and nodded: "It is possible, but we have too little information in our hands to determine..."

At this point, Teacher Judy turned her head and glanced at Conan, worriedly: "In any case, she already knows the true identity of you and the little girl, and your current situation is very dangerous. I suggest you think about that matter carefully!"

"Witness protection plan..." Conan shook his head and rejected the plan again.

"Let's talk about it later. I'm not going to participate in this plan."

"Well. Although I don't know what Vermouth is planning, we have a breathing time because of this. I will collect information in the next two days and then contact you."

"Okay."

...

The next day

At Tatsuno's house.

After dinner, Tatsuno and Xiaolan snuggled on the sofa and chatted.

"Tatsuno, do you like tennis?"

"Well~ I can't say whether I like it or not, but I don't hate it anyway. What happened to Sonoko suddenly?"

"It seems that she has to attend an auction that lasts for three days with her family, and she can't leave."

"Three days? Is that so exaggerated~"

"Isn't it?! Haha, I also felt strange when I heard her say that~" Xiaolan smiled and nodded.

Long Ye put his arm around Xiao Lan's shoulders and chuckled: "Since she has kindly given us the tennis tickets, let's go and have a look~ It's vacation anyway!"

"Great! In fact, I have long wanted to travel to London with you!"

"Hehe~ Then let's book the hotel first. It should be difficult to book a hotel during the tennis match, right?"

Looking at Long Ye's smiling face, Xiao Lan pouted: "Humph, what do you mean by 'difficult to book a hotel'... You obviously have other intentions!"

"Oh? Then tell me, what are my intentions? Miss Xiao Lan~"

"You... Humph!"

Looking at Xiao Lan's flushed face, Long Ye laughed twice and stopped joking: "We will leave the day after tomorrow. Think about what you need to prepare first. Leave the rest to me~"

"Hmm~"

Noon

——"Buzz buzz buzz"

After feeling the vibration in his pocket, Long Ye took out his mobile phone.

After seeing the name of the caller displayed on the phone, he raised his lips slightly and pressed the answer button.

With that crazy detective personality, he actually called now. It seems that he is a little overwhelmed because of the failure of the plan~

"Kudo, how is it? Did you catch that Vermouth?"

There was silence on the other end of the phone for a while, and then replied: "No, there was a little mistake. The guy seems to have gone abroad... Come to my house, I have something to tell you."

"Okay, then you have to treat me to lunch~"

"...I know, I'll treat you!"

Three minutes later, in Kudo's house.

"Why did you come so quickly?" Looking at Ryuno outside the door, Conan was surprised.

"Please! My house is so close to yours, what are you talking about?"

"Uh... I forgot, this is notDetective Agency..." Conan covered his face and said helplessly.

Seeing this, Ryunosuke blinked.

Conan's mental state was obviously not right, it seems to be because of yesterday's failure?

Thinking of this, Ryunosuke walked in and sat on the sofa, his face full of worry: "Kudo, you are not in a good state..."

Hearing this, Conan felt a little touched.

As expected of a close friend who grew up with him, he cares about him so much and can see his inner anxiety at a glance!

Just then, Ryunosuke continued: "You...you are not going to deny that you promised to treat me to lunch on the grounds of mental disorder? It shouldn't be possible, right?"

Conan: "..."

After a while, Conan watched Ryunosuke call to order high-end sushi takeout.

"By the way, what did you want to say when you called me here? "After putting down the Kudo family's landline, Ryuno turned around and sat opposite Conan and asked.

Conan clenched his fists, forced down the fire in his heart, and said: "You know that yesterday's plan failed, right? That's because Vermouth suddenly took a plane to go abroad. Just this morning, I received a call from Teacher Judy. "

The day before yesterday, an accident occurred on a highway in the suburbs of Beihua, and a car suddenly exploded. When the police arrived, they found nothing at the scene except the wreckage of the car and the residue of explosives."

"The problem is that the police don't have the driving record and ownership record of the car! Not to mention, how could someone blow up an empty car with nothing for no reason?!"

Hearing this, Ryuno frowned.

He was the one who placed the explosives. He also made a simple check afterwards and was sure that Chianti and Cohen were indeed dead.

But from what Conan said, there was nothing at the scene except the wreckage of the car.

It seems that both the bodies of the two and the "equipment" they brought had been disposed of by the organization in advance.

Being able to clean up the scene before the police arrived shows that the organization must have "someone" in the Metropolitan Police Department, and this person must be at a high level.

Otherwise, even if the organization has sufficient manpower and reacts quickly, it is absolutely impossible to clean up the scene before the police arrive.

Seeing that Ryuno was lost in thought, Conan continued: "In addition to this incident, there is another suspicious incident. On that day, a pharmaceutical factory caught fire unexpectedly. Not long after, a similar fire broke out in an abandoned building in the suburbs."

"Since there was no evidence left, these three incidents were treated as accidents by the police."

"An inexplicable car explosion and two similar fires. Although the intelligence is insufficient, the FBI believes that these three incidents may be related to the organization!"

"In this case, it can also explain why Vermouth suddenly went abroad yesterday. Something must have happened to the organization!"
