Conan: Another Famous Detective

Chapter 1806 Undercurrent

After a while, Vermouth and Akira Hamiya left the house one after another.

After confirming that he was not being followed, Akira Hamiya got into a car on the side of the road, and the car drove away after he got in.

"How is it?" Meng Yu, who was sitting in the passenger seat, asked with his head poked.

"She agreed to help." Akira Hamiya replied.

"Is it possible that it was a trap?" Maori Kogoro, who was in the driver's seat, asked.

"I can't rule out this possibility." Akira Hamiya shook his head and said, "But even if it is a trap, it shouldn't be a trap that Vermouth deliberately set for us."

"She mentioned in the conversation that the boss may have guessed that she had some contact with us, but at the same time, TA still kept in touch with Vermouth."

"With the cautious style of the boss arranging a substitute and hiding behind the scenes, it is not impossible that we would track his whereabouts through Vermouth."

"But TA doesn't seem to have made any relative restrictions on Vermouth..." Meng Yu said thoughtfully.

"I think the organization boss may have the intention of using Vermouth to lure us out." Maori Kogoro said lightly.

"I agree." Yumiya Akira nodded and said, "From the situation, we have lost the support of the police and are even targeted by the police. If we can catch the boss directly, the situation is likely to be reversed."

"With such temptation, we have a good chance of trying it when we have no choice."

Yumiya Akira said this and couldn't help but chuckle: "And the facts prove that we are indeed trying, aren't we? But the difference is that our situation is not as difficult as the enemy imagines!"

"The other party will be prepared after all, so it's better to be careful." Maori Kogoro reminded.

"I understand." Yumiya Akira nodded slightly.

…………

In the office of the Superintendent General of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department.

Deputy Director of the Metropolitan Police Department, Toshio Moroboshi, temporarily took over the position of Director General under the arrangement of the above because Director Hakuba was temporarily unable to perform his duties, and temporarily moved his office to the Director General's office.

At this time, amid a ringing of his cell phone, Toshio Moroboshi locked the door of his office to prevent the slightest possibility that someone would suddenly enter.

He returned to his desk and sat down before answering the phone: "Hello! This is Zhu Xing."

"Director Zhu Xing, good afternoon!" A deep male voice came from the other side.

Zhu Xing's face changed immediately when he heard the voice: "It's you? What do you want to talk to me about?"

The deep male voice laughed: "Director Zhu Xing has been in high spirits recently. How do you feel about the position of Superintendent General?"

Zhu Xing Toshio frowned and said in a deep voice: "Forget the polite words, just say what you want to say."

"Okay! Since Director Zhu Xing is quick to speak, I won't beat around the bush." ​​The smile in the man's tone gradually faded: "How are the things you promised us before?"

Zhu Xing's eyes flashed, and he replied: "I have arranged people to investigate the people you are looking for, and I have some clues, but those guys are quite difficult to deal with. We haven't caught any of them so far."

"Oh? Could it be that you Have you tried to contact them as the acting director?" A deep male voice asked, "As far as I know, a considerable number of them were under the direct command of Hakuba before." "Unfortunately, I can't contact them." Toshio Moroboshi replied, "They have always had a single-line contact with Hakuba, and no information about them was found in the police archives. The confidentiality level is quite high." "I did find out some of the methods Hakuba used to contact them before, and tried it, but the other party never responded. Obviously, the other party is not a fool and has already known that something is wrong." "Your subordinates have also met their people, right? Has no one seen the appearance of any of them?" A deep male voice asked coldly. "No." Zhu Xing replied: "They seemed to have anticipated our actions in advance. Every time we met them, they disguised themselves and there was no way to lock on to any specific person." At this point, he sneered; "Don't talk about us. Aren't the people you sent out also self-proclaimed elite killers? How come we didn't get a single hair from them even with our cooperation?" A deep male voice snorted coldly: "After all, our people can't cooperate with you openly. Otherwise, once someone with ulterior motives catches us, you, the director, will have to move to another position before you even get comfortable in your office chair." Zhu Xing's face suddenly sank when he heard this, and a surge of anger rose in his heart. But he had been in a high position for many years, and he was still good at keeping his temper. He quickly calmed himself down and replied indifferently: "There is no point in shirking responsibility. If you call me just to make unnecessary accusations, I'm sorry I won't accompany you."

"Director Zhuxing, please be patient!" The tone of the other party also eased a little; "I called you this time to discuss with you the strategy to deal with them."

"Oh? I'm all ears." Zhuxing said indifferently.

"It's very simple. We will lead them to the designated location, and your people will surround them. It's best to catch them alive. If you can't catch them alive, just kill them on the spot!"

"Is it that simple?" Zhuxing frowned slightly: "They act very cautiously. What are you going to use to lure them out?"

"Director Zhuxing doesn't need to worry about this," the deep male voice replied mysteriously: "You just need to send someone over after receiving our notice."

"As for the reason... what do you think about arresting the suspect who poisoned and murdered the top police officials?"

Zhu Xingzhifu's eyes flashed slightly, he was silent for a moment, and then said: "Okay, I promise you!"

"Wise choice!" The deep male voice laughed: "Believe me, you will not regret this decision. Soon, you will become a veritable police director!"

The deep male voice said and hung up the phone.

Shio Morohoshi put down his mobile phone, exhaled slightly, and slowly leaned against the back of the chair.

Although he had a tough attitude just now, in fact, his status with the other person on the phone was not that equal.

He reached a cooperation with them semi-forcedly when something was in their hands, and now that the matter was over, he had no way of turning back.

Moreover, cooperating with them is the only hope he can see to go further.

Although he is already the deputy director, he is not a direct descendant of Hakuba. In contrast, Odagiri Toshiro, the criminal minister, is obviously more valued by Hakuba. Hakuba also intends to promote Odagiri to serve as deputy director for a period of time, and then naturally replaces the director. Leave the position to him.

All the stars see it.

Naturally, he was unwilling to do so.

The person on the other end of the phone gave him a new opportunity.

Judging from the current development, his choice does not seem to be wrong.

"Hmph! I hope you are really as smart as you boast!" He murmured in his heart.
