Chapter 356: Gin, Who Sees Everyone as a Traitor
The two figures, one big and one small, hiding in the bushes, could naturally be no one other than Conan and Amuro Tooru.
Shengzai noticed them, but they didn't see Shengzai in the helicopter.
The two had jumped into the lake earlier to avoid the armed helicopter's strafing; who knew that just as they emerged from the water, they saw the Black Organization's helicopter making an emergency landing nearby.
Gin's disheveled appearance also surprised Conan and Amuro Tooru.
After all, one had dealt with Gin many times, and the other had been an undercover agent in the Black Organization for a long time, so they naturally knew what kind of troublesome person Gin was.
But now, such a ruthless character had his arms hanging limp, and he was acting with Vodka with a slightly panicked expression, looking as if he were fleeing for his life...
Seeing this scene, Amuro Tooru, who was with Conan, felt an unusual struggle in his heart.
Gin was undoubtedly an important member of the organization, and he seemed to be seriously injured right now; if he could be captured alive, he could probably obtain a lot of intelligence about the organization from him.
If it were Gin in a normal state, he wouldn't have much confidence, but now that Gin was seriously injured, it was undoubtedly a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for him.
But this opportunity was not without a price.
Because only Gin was injured, while Vodka was fine; even if he took action to keep Gin, it wouldn't be too difficult for Vodka to escape from his hands.
He had finally managed to infiltrate the organization; if he took action to keep Gin this time, his undercover identity would definitely be exposed.
If Gin knew who the organization's BOSS was and could obtain important intelligence about the organization through him, that would be one thing, but if Gin didn't know much, or if the capture failed, then he would really be empty-handed.
Amuro Tooru and Conan were hesitating whether to take action, while Shengzai, who remained in the helicopter, also had an ugly expression.
He didn't know if it was destiny, or if Gin's luck was just too good, that he could encounter the "Death Student" and Amuro Tooru wherever he made an emergency landing.
If Shengzai finished off Gin and the others cleanly here, his previous persona would definitely not be maintained.
Moreover, Amuro Tooru was from the Public Security Bureau; if he let him know that he was this awesome, it would also be a huge trouble for himself and his family.
Of course, there was actually another way, which was to finish off not only Gin and Vodka, but also Conan and Amuro Tooru, so there would be no witnesses here.
However, it was clear that Shengzai hadn't reached that level of insanity, so he could only watch as Conan and Amuro Tooru chased after Gin and the others, and then he stealthily disappeared into the darkness and left.
Gin, who was fleeing under Vodka's cover, was also quite puzzled; he didn't know why Shengzai hadn't caught up with them.
Was it because of some hesitation? Or was he playing cat and mouse? Or perhaps in the opponent's eyes, he hadn't taken them seriously from the very beginning?
Of course, regardless of the possibility, what Gin wanted to do now was to evacuate here as soon as possible.
"Bang——————!"
"Who is hiding there? Hurry up and come out!"
Vodka, who was covering Gin's retreat tremblingly, suddenly keenly felt movement coming from a corner nearby, and then fired a shot without saying a word, shouting sharply at the shadow in the corner.
In the shadow of the corner, Conan looked at Amuro Tooru beside him with an apologetic expression.
Because it was he who had accidentally touched a stone on the ground, causing the noise; if it were an ordinary person, they probably wouldn't have noticed, but he didn't expect this big guy Vodka to have such high alertness.
"Don't shoot, it's me, I'm here to support you."
Since they had been discovered in advance, the plan to ambush and capture Gin could naturally only be shelved.
To avoid being finished off by Vodka, Conan, who had been exposed, had to raise his hands and walk out of the corner voluntarily.
"Bourbon, it's actually you. Why are you here? The organization's plan this time shouldn't have notified you.
If you don't have a reasonable explanation, I will have Vodka finish you off."
Looking at Amuro Tooru, who walked out of the corner with his hands raised, Gin, although he didn't let Vodka take action immediately, had a face full of suspicion.
"Although I don't know what organization plan you are executing this time, it shouldn't be strange for me to appear here, right?
I saw news about the Tokyo Aquarium in the cafe where I work, so I came here to scout the situation.
And it wasn't until I saw the helicopter in the sky that I knew the organization was involved in this matter.
Furthermore, if I really had malicious intent toward you, there would have been plenty of opportunities to take action earlier; why would I wait until now to be discovered by you."
The reason given by Amuro Tooru finally convinced Gin.
After all, with such a big commotion this time, it was normal for Bourbon to come here to scout for intelligence. And as the other party said, he was in poor condition now; if Bourbon wanted to finish them off, he wouldn't have waited until now to show up.
Seeing Gin silent, Amuro Tooru also understood that the other party had temporarily accepted his explanation, and then he followed up by saying: "What happened to you, and why did you become so disheveled?"
Although he temporarily lifted his suspicion of Bourbon, Gin didn't fully trust him, so he said: "You should know the rules in the organization; don't ask too much.
Chianti and Korn have been finished off, and now we must leave here immediately.
Vodka, try to contact Vermouth; that woman is very important to the BOSS, and she cannot die here."
Hearing what Gin said, Amuro Tooru was clearly stunned for a moment; he never expected that Chianti and Korn had actually died here.
Who could it be that could finish off both Chianti and Korn, and also make Gin flee in such a disheveled state?
Akai Shuichi? No, he, Amuro Tooru, had fought with the other party; it couldn't be denied that the other party was also a formidable character, but Amuro Tooru didn't think he had such ability.
After confirming that Shengzai hadn't caught up with them, Gin let Vodka dial Vermouth's phone.
Gin originally thought that Vermouth was the first to come into contact with Shengzai and Curaçao, and given her style of doing things, she had likely been finished off.
But to their surprise, Vermouth finally answered Vodka's phone, and after Gin's probing, confirmed that it was indeed her.
"Vermouth, how did you survive? Does it mean you betrayed the organization?"
Vermouth on the other end of the phone was undoubtedly confused when she heard what Gin said.
What did her surviving have to do with betraying the organization? Curaçao was very powerful, but she wasn't so powerful that surviving from her hands was equivalent to betrayal, right?
