"When we were at the Metropolitan Police Department, you had already seen through my and 'his' identities, right?" Vermouth shook her long hair and chuckled.

Ryuno spread his hands and said, "There's nothing I can do. No matter how good the disguise is, there are some things that can't be imitated after all."

"Oh?" Vermouth leaned back in the car, a little curious.

It was the "mask" she made for Ireland herself, and it was also the "information" and voice samples about Manager Matsumoto that she investigated and provided.

Except for Manager Matsumoto's family, it should be difficult for others to see the flaws in a short time.

Besides, it doesn't take long to disguise anyway.

As long as we get the data card back from the criminal, Ireland's mission will be completed.

As for Manager Matsumoto's daughter, Vermouth had already investigated it clearly.

Her daughter is a junior high school teacher, and she rents a house outside by herself. She only meets her father, Manager Matsumoto, once a week.

In order to ensure that the plan is correct, Gin also specially asked Vermouth to go to the Metropolitan Police Department to observe after disguising herself.

As a result, even the police officers who often deal with Manager Matsumoto did not find any flaws.

"Vermouth, why do you think Matsumoto Kiyonaga invited me to the search meeting?" Tatsuno blinked.

Vermouth's eyes flickered and she shook her head slightly.

The idea of ​​inviting "Mouri Kogoro" to "Takeda Tatsuno" as special consultants was not theirs.

This idea was personally proposed by the real Manager Matsumoto to Inspector Megure and others a few days before the meeting.

Since this little thing not only has no effect on the organization's plan, it may also help them find the criminal faster.

Therefore, neither Vermouth nor Ireland cared about this matter and chose to go with the flow.

It was not until Vermouth listened to Tatsuno's words that she took this issue seriously again.

The reason why Manager Matsumoto invited Mouri Kogoro is easy to explain.

Mouri Kogoro is now a well-known detective who has helped the police solve many cases. He was also a police officer in the Metropolitan Police Department.

But Tatsuno...on the surface, he is just a high school student.

He is neither a famous detective nor has a complicated relationship with the Metropolitan Police Department.

Why did Officer Matsumoto take the initiative to invite him to participate in the investigation meeting?

"Actually, I am a relative. Officer Matsumoto's daughter is my teacher~" Tatsuno blinked.

Although he said so on the surface, Tatsuno knew it in his heart.

The reason why Officer Matsumoto invited him was because he had helped his daughter, Sayuri, before.

In addition, Inspector Megure's "big mouth" must have played a huge role.

Since Kudo Shinichi became "low-key", Inspector Megure always "inadvertently" threw an olive branch to him.

...

After a while, Vermouth looked at Ryuno and whispered:

"One of the victims was a member of the organization disguised as an ordinary person. In order to protect himself, that person carried a memory card with the organization's undercover list."

"He was originally on Gin's list, but I didn't expect the criminal to kill him before Gin."

"And the criminal took the memory card away for some unknown reason."

"Of course, he should have taken it away without knowing it~"

At this point, Vermouth paused, lit a cigarette, and took a deep breath.

After listening, Ryuno nodded.

Although he had a little impression of "this incident", the most impressive thing was "the armed helicopter with blue flames".

He did forget a little about why the organization participated in this case.

But after listening to Vermouth's words, he also sorted out the basic context of the incident and the reasons why the organization intervened.

If the criminal is arrested by the police, the memory card recording the organization's undercover will be exposed.

In order to avoid such a situation, the organization will let Ireland sneak into the Metropolitan Police Department and take the lead in contacting the criminal.

After taking two puffs of cigarettes, Vermouth suddenly smiled: "Let me tell you secretly, there is actually another reason why I chose the "infiltration" method. Gin intends to get rid of this member of the organization who sneaked into the Metropolitan Police Department~"

Hearing this, Tatsuno was a little surprised.

Although he knew about this a long time ago, but... why did Vermouth tell him this news?

Without waiting for Tatsuno to continue thinking, Vermouth continued: "His organization code name is..."

"Ireland." Tatsuno said lightly.

After hearing Tatsuno say this name, Vermouth's eyes also flashed with a trace of astonishment.

In less than a second, she hid her emotions with a smile, turned around and got into the car, and handed out a black memory card from the car.

"This is what you want, and it's what I prepared with great difficulty."It's a gift~"

Vermouth handed the memory card to Tatsuno and drove away.

Tatsuno put the memory card in his pocket and took a deep look at the direction where Vermouth left.

He only asked Vermouth for one thing - the location of the winery's bases around the world.

Could it be that... Vermouth really gave him this information?

It shouldn't be...

Ten minutes later

Since the suspect has been arrested, Inspector Megure and others are preparing to drive back to the Metropolitan Police Department.

Tatsuno was sent home by Officer Sato and Officer Takagi.

Soon after, Officer Takagi and Officer Sato received a call from Inspector Megure.

A painter named Shindo Sumire called the Metropolitan Police Department and said She knew who the serial murderer was.

But she said that she would not tell the police about the murderer until they protected her.

At first, everyone thought it was a prank.

But when everyone heard her address, they instantly believed her.

This painter named Shindo Sumire lives in Hachioji City! It is exactly the place that Tatsuno analyzed before!

After receiving the news, Officers Takagi and Sato immediately turned the car around and drove to the location of the person who called the police.

At the same time

Gin, who got the news from Ireland, immediately called Bourbon.

Because even if they could arrive earlier than the police, there would be no time to force a confession.

"Hello, it's me. You take Grey Goose with you..."

On the other side

After receiving Gin's instructions, Toru Amuro heaved a sigh of relief.

Gin asked him and Grey Goose to carry out the mission with sniper rifles. At first, he thought they were going to "kill someone."

When he learned on the phone that Gin was going to attack the police, he trembled in his heart, fearing that the organization was going to let him attack his "colleagues."

Fortunately, their mission was just to stop the police...

--Late that night

Teitan Elementary School, 1st year, Class B.

Ireland's mouth curled up when he saw the handmade sculptures placed at the back of the classroom.

Soon after, Teitan High School Football Club.

Ireland stood in front of the locker with the sign "Kudo Shinichi" and smiled grimly again.
