Conan: I’m really not Tokyo Monster Story

After learning the whole story from Vodka, Gin probably had an idea.

...The possibility that Sano heard wrongly is not high.

Therefore, this is undoubtedly an out-of-control behavior by Sano.

Fortunately, this loss of control did not bring any serious consequences.

And it feels more like an action triggered by Sano's confidence that nothing will go wrong.

Still within the acceptable range.

Vodka, who also learned about the situation on the other side from Gin, was not in such a good mood.

... Even if he wanted to die, he actually forged information and brought himself to die with him.

It's simply...extremely excessive!

It's a pity that there is no evidence... There is no evidence for this kind of thing.

Otherwise, maybe Sano can be punished with a "suspension" to win a short period of peace for the majority of innocent organization members.

Vodka, who had deeper resentment in his heart, described Sano's "crime" more vigorously.

"...Okay, I know what the situation is. I'll leave it to them to finish. You can go back with me to treat the wounds first."

Gin interrupted Vodka's "explanation of the crime" to Sano and gave the next order.

"yes."

And when he saw that his eldest brother's first reaction was to care about his injuries after learning about the situation, Vodka couldn't help but feel a little moved.

The eldest brother really still has his own heart!

But when Gin said the next sentence after getting in the car, Vodka's mood instantly went from heaven to hell.

"Take care of the injury quickly, adjust your condition, and form a second team with Rye tomorrow."

Vodka: "..."

No, no, no, no! ?

Isn’t it so outrageous? ?

"...Brother, I have been a member of the organization for so many years and have been with you for so many years. Even if I don't have any merit, I still have hard work. You can't treat me like this!"

Finally, he couldn't hold on to the vodka anymore, and his mentality was almost broken. He protested to his elder brother for the first time.

"It's not like you haven't seen that Sano is a fucking lunatic. If I continue to team up with him, sooner or later I will lose my life in his hands!"

"Then you're not dead?"

Gin calmly lit a cigarette for himself: "In our industry, who hasn't taken risks yet? Yours is just a little more risky. Even considering Rye's ability, it is guaranteed to a certain extent." It increases your safety and reduces your risk of death. The two offset each other and are equivalent to nothing."

...Can this be calculated like this? ?

Before Vodka could speak again, Gin's voice turned cold: "Get it clear about Vodka, I'm informing you, not discussing with you."

Seeing Vodka, how could he not know that he was helpless and could only lower his head feebly and respond: "...Yes."

Looking at the scenery passing by quickly outside the window, Vodka felt a little pain in his shoulders, but what hurt more was his heart.

Vodka felt that he might be the person most deeply implicated in Sano's disaster.

And just as Vodka was feeling resentful, a certain blond and dark man was standing at the door of the Metropolitan Police Department, tremblingly reaching out to the white Mazda that was no longer human... shaped.

...Is this my car?

It doesn't look like much, but take a closer look.

Hmm... Although it doesn't look like it, it is indeed my own car.

...So who can tell me why such a beautiful car of mine is now like a junk that is about to be scrapped?

Um? ? ?

The night wind blew Toru Amuro's messy hair, but it couldn't disturb his heart.

…

The next day, Sano came to the antique cafe again to inspect the work.

Compared with yesterday, today's cafe is obviously much cleaner. There are only three people, Mao Lilan, Conan, and Haibara Ai.

...Although the two people behind the counter, Azusa Enomoto and Aiko Mitsukoshi, were already busy as spinning tops, it seemed that today's business was probably better than yesterday.

"Forget it about the two of them, why did you come all the way here to spend money?"

Sano asked as he glanced at the desserts and drinks in front of Haihara Ai.

“Because I feel like the environment here is good.”

Hui Yuan Ai crossed her legs and replied, "What's more important is that someone invited me to be a guest."

Sano raised his eyebrows and looked at Mao Lilan, who immediately shook his head.

Not Mao Lilan?

That is?

Sano looked at Conan again, and the boy was shaking even more vigorously.

"It must be Miss Aiko."

Mao Lilan smiled and said: "Yesterday, I felt that Miss Aiko was very kind to Xiao Ai. She even gave her a free dessert just now."

"Um."

Haiyuan Ai nodded and said that Mao Lilan's guess was correct.

This caused Sano to look at Mitsuki Aiko behind the counter with some surprise.

"...Okay, I've written down everything here. Please come over as soon as possible to pick up the meal. Thank you."

Sanyi Aiko hung up the ordering call from Nadutong Rider. When he looked up again, he found that the four people on the other end were staring straight at him.

"...what's wrong?"

"My beloved son."

Sano touched his chin and looked at the other party suspiciously: "You couldn't be... a lolicon, right?"

"Senior! This is impossible no matter how you think about it!"

Mao Lilan, who thought Sano was going to make some subtle reasoning, was upset. Conan and Haibara Ai also rolled their eyes.

"Otherwise, I really can't figure out why she would give this guy dessert. The prices of things here are not cheap."

After hearing Sano's words, Mitsuki Aiko seemed to understand what was going on. She smiled and explained that she felt that Haibara Ai was very similar to one of her sisters, so she felt good about him, and that's why she became a little closer to him. Some.

"So this is ah……"

The few people whose doubts were resolved suddenly nodded.

Just...sister?

Sano, who triggered a certain keyword, suddenly laid his eyes on Mitsuki Aiko's high-collar bottoming shirt that covered most of her neck.

"...Aiko, don't you feel hot wearing turtleneck clothes in the cafe?"

"ah?"

Faced with Sano's sudden question, Mitsuki Aiko was stunned for a moment, then shook his head with a smile and said: "No, maybe it's because I was born with a cold body and am more afraid of the cold, so I habitually dress warmer than ordinary people. .”

"Yeah."

Sano nodded and said nothing more.

... Let this guy approach Haibara Ai with an identity other than his real identity. She is quite good at it, and she actually came to work for her.

Are you planning to stay with her for a long time? Forget it, it has nothing to do with you, just leave it to her.

"By the way, senior, I heard that you passed the make-up exam this time?"

Mao Lilan suddenly raised the question of making up the exam, and Sano nodded calmly: "Yes, I barely passed."

...In fact, Sano, who has mastered the correct examination method, can definitely achieve perfect scores in Keke.

But that would look too fake.

As an excellent student, Sano certainly knows the truth about going too far, and how to make his answers look like he made them himself.

Therefore, Sano deliberately controlled the score, just above the passing line.

Just enough.

"Oh, I took so many make-up exams and finally didn't fail again. Congratulations."

Hearing the faint sarcasm coming from Haihara Ai's mouth, Sano's eyes immediately turned evil.

This guy really has a bad mouth, and it was indeed the right choice not to let Miyano Akemi show her face in front of her.

"You can't say that, Xiao Ai. Senior also worked very hard to pass."

Before Sano could fight back, Mao Lilan spoke for him.

...Although this statement doesn't seem to sound that good.

"Senior, you have to keep working hard. You have to work hard not to fail the midterm exam next Monday."

Mao Lilan turned to Sano and encouraged him.

"Yeah. I know……"

Sano's voice suddenly stopped: "What did you just say? What are you going to do next Monday?"

"Midterm exam."

Mao Lilan asked doubtfully: "Senior, don't you know?"

"...Should I know?"

Sano's brain didn't react for a moment.

Since there is a midterm exam next Monday, if I fail the make-up exam this time, will I be fine?

Then why did you try so hard to steal the answer?

And the last exam that caused me to fall into the cycle of make-up exams seemed to be a midterm exam, right?

Why is it the midterm exam again now... Forget it, Sano is too lazy to complain about such scientific questions.

At worst, Sano will transform into an agent again.

What a big deal.

After inspecting the cafe and learning that he still needed to pass the midterm exam, Sano left and went home.

It wasn't until that night that Sano came to Cocktail again under Gin's call. Just like yesterday, he took away a piece of mission information and a bottle of vodka.

When Sano left this time, he left a gift for Gin just like yesterday.

...First of all, it’s because Sano hasn’t finished venting his resentment yesterday.

Secondly, I just finished working overtime yesterday, and I was still thinking that I would finally have a rest today, but then I was called to work again. Can I not let new resentment come out?

Although Sano still has a task that requires performance, logically speaking, he shouldn't resist such a thing.

But that thing doesn't even have a progress bar. As time goes by, Sano will inevitably feel impatient.

So while Sano was busy doing tasks with vodka, Gin was once again suddenly attacked by the "Black Mask".

Everything is the same as yesterday.

Black Mask did not break up with Gin immediately, nor did they remain entangled to the end.

It's just a normal point to stop and pull away midway.

This makes Gin angry and helpless.

Then on the third day, Sano came to Cocktail again, took away the vodka again, and left the clone again...

But this time Gin learned to be smart.

Once by chance, twice by chance, it's impossible for Gin to be unprepared for the third time.

Therefore, this time, Gin made arrangements in advance, prepared a "trap" and waited for "Black Mask" to take the bait.

As a result... although the hook was hooked, the fish still ran away.

After all, it is impossible for Gin to make the "trap" too obvious. Firstly, he is worried that "Black Mask" will not take the bait, and secondly, the environment does not allow it, so even if the number of arranged combatants is large, it is absolutely impossible. many.

In particular, Sano relied on the transformation between the black cat form and the mask form to be truly elusive. Shin could suddenly attack quietly and retreat suddenly without warning. Gin had nothing to do with him.

Later, Gin began to try to move the fighting location to sparsely populated suburban areas, so that it would be easier to deploy "effective traps".

It's a pity that "Black Mask" seems to know Gin's thoughts very well, and he always starts to take action before Gin leaves the suburbs, or after returning from the suburbs.

It is determined not to stand under a dangerous wall.

So the final result is still the same as before.

After doing this several times, apart from losing a lot of manpower and material resources and being exhausted, Gin failed to achieve any gains.

At this point, Gin's eager and lively heart finally became weak and wanted to give up this fishing operation.

But just because Gin didn't want to fight, it didn't mean Sano didn't want to fight either.

Because the initiative is in Sano's hands, even if Gin wants to escape, he can't avoid it.

Gin was also puzzled as to why the "Black Mask" could accurately grasp his location every time.

Gin is not incompetent in anti-reconnaissance technology, he is even very strong.

Whether it is remote tracking through a transmitter or close real-time tracking.

Not even the slightest trace of gin could be found.

That guy was like an invisible pervert, clinging to him, but he could only passively accept the sudden attacks one after another.

In this way, until the seventh time he was attacked, Gin finally couldn't bear it anymore.

You can't catch it, you can't prevent it.

You can't kill it, you can't avoid it.

Gin felt like his mentality was a little broken.

So Gin was inspired to fight again and planned to fight "Black Mask" to the end.

Gin was so anxious that he even planned to stay in the prepared trap around the clock. In the end, he made up his mind and prepared to directly stud, hoping that Sano and several other members of the code name would also help with the trap.

...The conflict between Black Mask and Gin is private or public, because there is too little effective information, and it falls into an ambiguous definition.

It is precisely because of this that Gin first tried to arrange for Sano to explore the intelligence, and then summoned peripheral members to "wait and wait." However, because of this incident, too many manpower, even multiple code-named members, were mobilized, and it was inevitable that There will be a slight feeling of "unjustified reputation".

But at this moment, Sano opened his mouth to remind Gin of the key point.

"Lord Gin, you should also know that only a thousand days can make a thief, but there is no reason why a thousand days can prevent a thief."

"You can't be nervous twenty-four hours a day. There will always be something you miss. And it's not worth wasting time and energy on such a person."

Sano was not excusing himself, but telling the truth.

...After all, Black Mask is Sano himself, how could he not know the advantages of the "tactics" he adopted?

This is very close to traditional guerrilla tactics.

The main focus is on two things, one is harassment and the other is flexibility.

To sum up, when the enemy advances, we retreat; when the enemy retreats, we pursue; when the enemy is stationed, we harass; when the enemy is tired, we attack.

With this kind of tactical advantage coupled with the strategic advantage of the enemy being overt and we being covert, it's no wonder that Gin can succeed.

Of course Gin also knew this, but he had already started to get a little carried away before, so he didn't think about it in detail... although even if he thought about it, it seemed to be of no use.

"...Then what do you think we should do?"

"It's very simple. If you can't afford to offend, you can't afford to hide."
