Chapter 110 Intersection "I've found out, bro!"A dim laboratory at the Tokyo Institute of Pharmaceutical Research. Vodka strode over wearing sunglasses. "The reason why the Suzuki Group got involved is because Shiro Suzuki was kidnapped." "And the kidnapper's request is Noah's Ark!" Gin sat on the swivel chair with his back to him, his golden hair had turned silver. There were hundreds of screens in front of him, but most of them were off, with less than twenty still lit. "Humph." Gin sneered: "It was the work of that brat." He paused for a second and asked again. "Is there anything else going on these days?"
"what?" Vodka wondered. He was a little confused. "Other things? What other things?" Gin bit his cigarette and explained to his younger brother calmly in a hoarse voice. "Su Beixun is not stupid. He should know that the Suzuki Group alone cannot compete with us... So, he must have other actions." Vodka scratched his head and didn't know what to say for a long time. Na Na said: "Brother, what you mean is..." The red cigarette butt flickered. Gin slammed it down on the operating table and forgave his younger brother's stupidity. He frowned and asked, "Programmer, have you been attacked?" Hearing the impatience in his brother's words, Vodka immediately straightened his chest and replied: "No! I haven't received any notification in this regard!" A wisp of green smoke dissipated in the white light of the screen, and Gin's voice was indifferent. "There is no more effective way than attacking those programmers... If I were him, I would not let this go." Vodka asked carefully: "Brother, aren't those hackers hiding in very secret places? How could they be found?" Is your paranoia getting worse again? "Do not." Gin tapped his slender fingers on the metal counter again and again. “Those who have been in the organization since childhood and have no outside connections are naturally hard to find.”
"But for those with visible identities, if they are determined, it is not difficult to follow the clues and track them down." Vodka suddenly realized and immediately stepped forward to show his loyalty. "Don't worry, big brother! I'll go and notify them to evacuate now." But unexpectedly... Gin shook his head. "No need... Send armed forces to those non-core hacker locations, hide in the dark and wait and see." Vodka sweated a bit. He could tell that his elder brother was using those people as bait. He couldn't help but wonder: "Is this... okay? Don't we need hackers right now?" Gin glanced at him with a cold look. He didn't want to explain more, but looking at Vodka's face, he compromised. "It's impossible to completely cover up their traces in society. Since they can't hide it well, let's use it to test the kid's methods... Humph, it can be considered as making good use of waste." Vodka finally understood and took out his cell phone to start giving orders. At this moment, another screen in front of Gin went out. "Great, big brother. We've narrowed down the location again! At this rate, we'll be able to get Noah's Ark in less than three days!" Vodka tried to lighten the mood and said with a smile, "That kid wants to interfere, it's just wishful thinking!" "Don't be careless, Vodka!" There was no sign of relaxation on Gin's face. He thought of the collapsed buildings and the bullets that never hit the target during the chase, and a sense of gloom rose in his heart. Especially during the organization's subsequent investigation, it was discovered that there was no trace of the bomb there! "Sonic weapons?" A fierce look flashed in Gin's eyes. It was decided that the Organization Research Department would step up its research on targeted solutions. Suddenly, Vodka's phone lit up. He looked down and his expression became stunned. He shouted in panic: "Oh no, brother! It's too late! Four locations have already been attacked!" Gin had a blank expression on his face. He was not panicked, but instead felt a sense of calmness as if "it finally happened."
"What was the method of attack?" "It's a bounty hunter! Someone in the underworld has offered a reward for hiring people to attack our building." Vodka said this, hesitating a bit. "However... the person who issued the mission was not Su Beixun, but an intelligence dealer named 'Mei Lan'." "Meilan..." Gin chewed on the name meaningfully. "What kind of person dares to step on our heads?" He sneered, "That brat must have done something... Find out this Mei Lan's motives." Vodka lowered his head and operated his mobile phone. After a moment, he looked at the news and reported: "It was Bourbon! He found out that this person was investigating us, and issued a mission to eliminate the peripheral members, which led to revenge from the other side." Bourbon? Gin frowned. Vodka was angry: "Brother, there is definitely something wrong with Bourbon! The police got the news when we killed Jiang Gu Yichuan last time, and he is still making trouble for us this time!" Gin didn't respond. Of course he suspected Bourbon, too. However, the execution order for core members must be issued by the boss himself. The current doubts alone cannot fully explain the problem. Besides... "If this person is really investigating the organization, Bourbon's decision is not wrong." Gin said indifferently: "He's just an information dealer...Tell Bourbon to get rid of him!" "I see, brother." Vodka immediately sent a message to Bourbon. Thousands of miles away, Toru Amuro looked at Vodka's words - [Brother asked you to wipe your butt clean] - and couldn't help but fall into deep thought. At this time, Vodka asked again: "Should we add guards to all the programmers?" Gin nodded and didn't refuse. The place where Noah's Ark escaped was getting smaller and smaller, and the manpower pressure was not as great as before, so a lot of manpower could be spared. "That's right, big brother." Vodka remembered another piece of news.
"Many of the foreign hackers you asked me to pay attention to have indeed come to Japan." "However, most of them were killed along the way, and no more than thirty people entered Japan." Gin didn't care about it and asked casually: "Have you found the source?" Vodka nodded. "There are 149 people in total, 126 of whom were hired by the Suzuki family. The other 23 were invited by the Jiang Shou Group." "Jiang Shou Group?" Gin glanced sideways. "It's that bank chaebol." Vodka explained: "According to the interrogation, it should be the work of Jiang Shouyi, the only son of Jiang Shou." He smiled innocently and said, "However, these bankers need programmers to maintain their accounts. This should be just a coincidence." Coincidence? Gin narrowed his eyes slightly. He never believes in coincidences! "Go find the latest information about Jiang Shou's family." "Ah, yes!" Vodka turned and went out, and soon returned with a stack of reports. Gin reached out and took it. After reading through it, he fixed his eyes on the four words "Eshou Yuzuru". Hokkaido…… Not long ago… There was a cold flash in Gin's eyes. Based on the organization's intelligence, we of course know that the chaos in Hokkaido is related to Su Beixun. He took another cigarette from the box, put it in his mouth and lit it. "Huh, didn't Chianti say that staying at the base was boring?" "Then let her go with Cohen and kill this man." Vodka looked at the photo Gin was pointing at, and for once he caught up with his brother's train of thought. He asked curiously, "Brother, are you saying..." "possible." Gin exhaled a puff of smoke. He was suspicious by nature, and thousands of conspiracies flashed through his mind in an instant. After all, this information came too easily, as if it was delivered to your doorstep. but! It is better to kill someone by mistake than to let him go! The organization is large and has a lot of business, so there is the cost of trial and error.
Besides, we are not 100% sure that the trap exists. "Tell Cohen to test the waters with peripheral members first. Don't expose yourself if you are not sure." "I know bro." Vodka nodded and went out. The screen in front of him suddenly went out again. Gin cast his eyes on it. In the dim room, there was only a flickering cigarette butt left. ## The villa area of Jiang Shou’s family. Conan and his crew finally arrived. Kogoro Mori looked at the exquisite garden scenery with his eyes wide open in helplessness. "Such a large area... is all from Jiang Shou's family?!" It’s more than twice as big as Suzuki’s house! "father!" Mao Lilan looked at her old father and reached out to pull his sleeve. "It is indeed not small." Officer Shiratori also sighed. A banker indeed! In terms of money alone, the Shiratori Group is still far inferior to Jiang Shou. Their influence is mainly on the military, politics and judiciary, and for the sake of their own image, they cannot spend money lavishly. Among the few people, only Suzuki Tomoko didn't care. "The Jiang Shou Group has been on a downward spiral. In order to cover up their guilty conscience, they have become extremely extravagant in material matters." She kind of looked down on this behavior. In the Suzuki family's opinion, a family residence should be warm and cozy, and a luxurious villa like this one is only suitable for short-term use for vacation. But after all, she was in someone else's home, so she didn't say any more unpleasant words. At this time, a servant came to lead the way. "The master is in the study, please follow me." Suzuki Tomoko was in a bad mood because of Suzuki Shiro's matter. Seeing this scene, she couldn't help but choke: "Even if Jiang Shouzhe doesn't come out, we should let the housekeeper come... A maid, is this the Jiang Shou family's way of entertaining guests?" The servant's face turned pale and he looked at a loss. He stuttered and explained, "I'm really sorry, but the butler, Mr. Sakai, just resigned not long ago, and the master hasn't found a new candidate yet." "Mom!"
Suzuki Sonoko pulled her aggressive mother. Suzuki Tomoko pursed her lips, realizing that she was venting her emotions on an innocent person, and her expression softened. "I'm really sorry, I'm not in a good mood." She nodded in apology. The maid waved her hands in surprise, "No, no, it's okay. Mrs. Suzuki, don't worry about it." Suzuki Tomoko said nothing more. The servant bent down and held out his hand, saying, "Please follow me." Several people followed him. Go up to the third floor and push open the red wooden door of the study. Jiang Shouzhe, who was sitting on a chair, stood up to greet him. Suzuki Tomoko patiently exchanged a few pleasantries with him and then went straight to the point. "Mr. Jiang Shou, where is your grandson Jiang Shou Huang?" Jiang Shouzhezhisuke was shocked but remained calm on the surface. He just smiled and said, "He and his cousin went out to play, and they won't be back for the next two days..." "But, you came here specifically to ask about my useless grandson?" He seriously suspected that something had happened to Su Beixun! Conan then asked: "Uncle Jiang Shou, where did they go to play?" "I am not sure as well." Jiang Shouzhezhisuke shook his head. He laughed at himself and said, "I am already an old guy. There is a huge generation gap between me and them. They won't tell me where they are going." ——Although he was being perfunctory, no one noticed anything unusual. The corner of Kogoro Mori's mouth twitched. He felt that this old man was even less responsible than himself. I couldn't help asking: "Aren't you worried?" Of course I’m worried! Jiang Shouzhe seemed relieved on the surface, but he was secretly annoyed inside. But no matter how he was asked, Su Beixun refused to tell his destination. Now he could only hope that the other party would accomplish his goal and bring Xiao Huang back safely. Officer Shiratori stepped forward.
He said with a serious expression: "Mr. Jiang Shou, please think carefully about this matter. We suspect that your grandson has been kidnapped!" Kidnapping? ! You were kidnapped a week ago and you're just here now? Jiang Shouzhezhisuke felt a little resentful. He covered it up and said, "You must have made a mistake! My grandson was at home yesterday, and he just went out to play for a little longer today... How could such an outrageous rumor spread?" Officer Shiratori took out his cell phone and played the recording for him. Jiang Shouzhe's help is unclear. But the more he listened, the wider his eyes opened, and finally he stood up suddenly. The chair was pushed to the ground with a thump. He looked grim and asked, "When did it happen?" "An hour ago." Officer Shiratori said: "The kid called us for help, so we came to ask about the situation." Jiang Shouzhezhisuke's face was gloomy. His hesitation was immediately caught by Conan. "Uncle Jiang Shou, do you know anything?" "……Do not." Jiang Shouzhezhi subconsciously denied it. He heard Director Suzuki's voice at the end of the recording and finally understood why Tomoko Suzuki came along. There is no doubt that Su Beixun kidnapped Suzuki Shiro! Therefore, he couldn't let Jiang Shou Group get involved. So Jiang Shouzhezhisuke pretended to be anxious. "To be honest, I'm also confused right now!" "Really? But from my uncle's look, he doesn't seem surprised." Conan looked innocently puzzled, holding his head in his hands. "I thought my uncle knew something and had anticipated this." Maori Kogoro's eyes became sharp: "Really? Mr. Jiang Shou! Do you really know something?" Without waiting for Jiang Shouzhe's help to deny it. Suzuki Tomoko slammed the table and said, "Mr. Jiang Shou, Shi Lang's life or death is uncertain. If you can provide any information... I am willing to agree on his behalf to allow the two consortiums to develop in-depth cooperation." Her eyes were as sharp as a knife, and there was a sense of oppression when she stared at Jiang Shouzhezhisuke. "I think, given the current situation of the Jiangshou Group, what it needs is friends, not enemies... Don't you agree?"
Jiang Shouzhezhisuke heard her threat, frowned and said nothing. Suzuki Sonoko couldn't help but rush out from behind her mother, pleading with red eyes: "Uncle, I beg you... I'm really worried about Dad's safety..." Seeing that Jiang Shouzhezhisuke was still silent. Conan also followed suit and said, "Uncle, this is not just for Suzuki. I believe you can hear that your grandson is in a very bad situation! If you continue to hide it, it will only make the situation worse!" Jiang Shouzhezhisuke gritted his teeth. Want to say something? After saying this, it can be predicted that Xiao Huang will die with a high probability. Don’t tell me... Jiang Shouhuang's life is also not guaranteed. Moreover, he and other family members would be in danger, and would also be hated by the Suzuki Group. After weighing the pros and cons several times, Jiang Shouzhe's character of "putting the overall situation first" prevailed. "What do you want to know?" He sighed. At this moment, he couldn't help feeling guilty. No matter how high-sounding it was, he ultimately chose to put his grandson's life on the table. But in addition to guilt, Jiang Shouzhezhisuke actually felt a sense of relief! perhaps…… From the moment Jiang Shouhuang was put on the collar, he had the vague idea of giving up his grandson. After all, Jiang Shouyi is still young, and if he loses one grandson, he can still have another one. But this thought has always been suppressed by emotions. Now, with the help of external forces, Jiang Shouzhe felt relieved as if he had gotten rid of a burden. Conan didn't know what he was thinking, he just thought he was persuaded by several people. At this time, he couldn't wait to ask: "Uncle, did you know that Jiang Shouhuang would be kidnapped?" Jiang Shouzhezhisuke smiled bitterly. He did not hide it: "I guess so... because Xiao Huang was kidnapped a week ago." "a week ago?!" Officer Shiratori asked in a lost voice: "Why didn't you call the police earlier?!" Conan immediately realized something was wrong: "Wait a minute! I clearly saw Jiang Shouhuang on the boat two days ago. At that time, he..." He wanted to say that Jiang Shouhuang was still very free at that time.
But the words suddenly got stuck here! Thinking about the brother next to Jiang Shouhuang... An absurd idea popped into Conan's mind, and he asked in disbelief. "...No way... Could it be that Jiang Mingyu..." Jiang Shouzhezhisuke looked at him in surprise. "Little friend, you actually guessed it!" Facing Conan's unbelieving gaze, Jiang Shouzhezhisuke nodded and said, "That's right... the one who kidnapped Xiao Huang is his cousin next to him!" Damn, I just realized I didn't post This is from yesterday. Sorry.
