Chapter 208: Who Died This Time?
Chi Feichei closed the Box and put it in his Pocket.
APTX4869...
If he could get a Finished Drug, Haibara Ai should be able to analyze the drug components and then create an Antidote.
Pity, the Organization requires an application for the use of such Medication. Every dose used on someone has to be recorded, and then people are repeatedly sent to confirm the death and confirm the results of the Police investigation.
He has no Means to make Catherine Dawes achieve the effect of natural death from Medication. If he were to privately withhold the Medication, he would probably have to run away.
It's better to wait until later. With his current Right, it's not difficult to get APTX4869. When he's preparing to run away or when the Organization is about to collapse, it would be good to intercept one.
If that doesn't work, getting Research Data is also an option. He is currently showing that he is not interested in Research, also in order to be able to more easily access Biological Research Data in the future.
"The Drug developer had a bit of a Problem, and the Research and development progress of this Medication was forcibly terminated. The current quantity is not large," Gin said. "This one was originally intended for Pisco to use last time, but he used other Methods, and it was later recovered by Belmode."
"Are we going to take action against that female capitalist?" Vodka asked. "But what about the MD?"
"MI6 should have already obtained Intelligence," Chi Feichei said. "In order to prevent her from handing the MD over to MI6 people, it's better to get rid of her first. Judging from the current Situation, she Values that MD very much, and the possibility of her telling others where it is is very low. After she dies, we can look for it slowly."
"Your Guess..." Gin lit a Cigarette before continuing, "There is a Rumor that the Woman has suddenly become serious in the past two years. Is it because you found this News?"
"Yes, the Data Photo in the Organization is a photo of her before she cooperated with the Organization, wearing an Evening Gown. I didn't notice it for a while," Chi Feichei said. "However, as long as you check online for photos of her attending Activities in the past two years, you will find that she hasn't worn backless and shoulder-baring Evening Gowns at Activities in the past two years. The Rumor says she has become serious, probably for this Reason. I also confirmed with that secretary just now that it started from three and a half years ago, probably not long after cooperating with the Organization."
"When a person wants to hide something precious, it's probably in a Place she Trusts more, such as Home, such as a temporary Stronghold to avoid attention, or even... directly hidden on her body," Gin continued. "So she doesn't wear that kind of Evening Gown, because to put on a shoulder-baring and backless Evening Gown, she has to change into a Self-Adhesive Bra to avoid exposing the shoulder straps, and she can't carry the MD with her..."
Then, Chi Feichei and Gin fell into Silence together.
Vodka: "..." What's the Situation again?
After a moment of Silence, Chi Feichei said, "It seems like we forgot to ask Catherine which one she likes best."
Gin also recovered, "It doesn't matter, anyway, she will definitely wear it on her body. If it's not on her body, then it's probably the same style... dark blue..."
Chi Feichei: "No, it should be white."
Gin: "Judging from her Personality and age, it should be dark blue."
Chi Feichei: "I insist."
Then, the two fell into Silence again.
Why is he guessing the Color of an old Woman's Underwear with a Crazy person? Mentioning this is nothing, it's just Knowledge. Kudo Shinichi even knows about Underwire in them, and Kuroba Kaito's Disguise Manual also introduces these Things, but their entanglement with Color is a bit strange.
Two seconds later, Chi Feichei said, "Everything can be resolved Tomorrow."
"I will contact someone in advance to pick us up." Gin acted as if nothing had happened.
... An Hour later, in the Building where Sautemes lived, a certain Little Black weakly peeked Outside from the Curtain, then Turn Around to Call.
"Mr. Furuya, it's been more than two Hours, and the other party hasn't taken Action yet, but there are more people Outside, and I also saw the Car that the two Men in Black Clothes were in on the bridge opposite..."
"There should have been some Accident," Amuro Toru comforted. "Don't worry, strengthening Surveillance is probably to prevent people from running away. They will take Action sooner or later. Have the people been switched over?"
"It hasn't been long since they were switched over," Little Black heard Footsteps Outside, paused for a moment, "There should also be people Outside monitoring the Exit of the Building, Mr. Furuya..."
"Let that Woman continue to sleep. After their people withdraw, you can then take people to transfer," Amuro Toru said. "Contact me immediately if there is any Situation."
The Phone Call ended, Little Black Turn Head, looked at the unconscious Sautemes, and silently took out Anesthetic. Hopefully, the girl won't damage her Brain if she's unconscious for too long...
... On the opposite bridge, after arranging people to Surveillance the Building, Chi Feichei did not leave either.
At 5 AM, even if he wanted to sleep, he wouldn't be able to sleep for long. It's better to wait until after it's resolved and then go back to rest.
When he was running Bounties in his previous life, this kind of homeless, sleepless Situation was not uncommon. It wasn't that he didn't have Money to stay in a Hotel, but as a Hunter, whether it was living in the open or staying up all night, he patiently waited quietly for the Achievement of capturing the prey at that moment.
Actually, performing Tasks in the Organization is sometimes not much different from Bounties, and the Conditions are much better.
Actions have Funds, Technology that is not available Outside, Bullets and Explosives can be taken at will, and it's not impossible to go to any high-end Place to enjoy. Moreover, the Organization has a large number of people and is powerful, making everything convenient. If there is a disagreement, they will just throw people at it. And they usually don't interfere much with the Life of Members.
Except for the point that you might be Suspicioned if you are not careful, or be cleaned up for some Reason, everything else is indeed good.
If he didn't know the power of 'Detective Science', and knew that he wouldn't be the kind of person who would be 'cleaned up at any time', he might have taken Gin's old path.
If he had encountered the Organization at the beginning, instead of the glorious and righteous protagonist group, even if he knew the power of 'Detective Science', he might have Considered standing on the Villain Side to kill Conan.
As For not having a good ending, he wouldn't Consider it. At least it was wonderful, and Life had too much Joy.
But Pity, who made the protagonist group his Friends...
Maybe this is also the power of the 'Detective Science' Protagonist Aura. Otherwise, knowing too much inside information, he might be able to use people to pile up and kill Conan, clean up what should be cleaned up, and let the Villain Side completely turn the tables.
What made Chi Feichei Speechless was that Gin didn't go to sleep either. The two grown Men stayed up all night together waiting for the Sunrise.
This is his Task, why is Gin waiting with him? Didn't he see that Vodka had already run to the Back Seat of the Car to catch up on sleep?
Gin silently smoked a Cigarette aside, looking down at his Mobile Phone. There wasn't enough Time, and he was too lazy to go to sleep.
Moreover, Vodka went to sleep, and he also had to guard against Chi Feichei, in case Chi Feichei suddenly went Crazy...
An Hour later, someone suddenly made a Phone Call to Chi Feichei's Mobile Phone. It was a Phone Call from Mori Detective Agency.
Without avoiding Gin being on the side, Chi Feichei answered, "Teacher Mouri?"
In Japan, it should be afternoon. Mori Kogoro said enthusiastically, "Hassashi boy, are you back yet? Whether or Not you want to go fishing with me? I heard about a good Fishing Ground, and I plan to go there Tomorrow."
"I'm afraid I can't go back Tomorrow," Chi Feichei replied calmly.
"Ah? Then forget it," Mori Kogoro said, "A Few Days Ago, I originally planned to take you to the banquet at the Home of philanthropist Ms. Suo Akako, but Pity you went to Kyushu..."
"Something happened, right?" Chi Feichei probably Guessed it was that Case. Cursed Mask.
Speaking of which, it's also a classic Case, but it's too classic. The scene of that string of Masks being pulled like a Python, he can remember it even with his eyes closed, and there's really no sense of anticipation.
"Who Died This Time?"
"The one who died is Ms. Suo Akako..." Mori Kogoro paused, then roared dissatisfiedly, "What do you mean by that, kid? This Incident is summoning me, Famous Detective Mori Kogoro!"
"Oh, yes," Chi Feichei Cooperated... and was perfunctory.
"Never Mind," Mori Kogoro said helplessly, "Ran asked me to help say hello to you. She said she has something to Say to you when you come back."
"Okay." The Phone Call ended.
Gin was still staring at his Mobile Phone, his Gaze didn't even shift, but he probably heard a little of the Call, especially Mori Kogoro's roar, "That Famous Detective? I didn't expect someone like you to also apprentice to a Detective..." There's no need at all.
Chi Feichei put away his Mobile Phone, "Because I can't See through him."
Gin doesn't Suspect Mori Kogoro yet, but as Conan courts death, he will eventually Suspect him. It's good that he 'confessed' in advance, at least it can imply that he is closer to the Organization.
"Oh?" Gin shifted his Gaze from the Mobile Phone Screen, looked at Chi Feichei. With Chi Feichei's Brain, to actually say he can't See through a person, that's really rare. "What aspect are you referring to when you say you can't See through him?"
"Wherever he Go To, people die there," Chi Feichei seriously shifted the Responsibility to Mori Kogoro. "Do you think it's a coincidence?"
"Do you want to say that there is some strange power? I didn't expect you to believe in these Things..." Gin chuckled softly, "Didn't he say it? That's the Case's summons."
"Magnetic Fields exist everywhere in the World, even in the human body. With Life Activities, weak Magnetic Fields are also generated in some tissues and organs. If he Go To a Place, and people die there, because of Magnetic Fields, then is it because his Magnetic Field is too strong, interfering with the Environment, making people's Resentment and Killing Intent become strong, or is it because the Magnetic Fields formed by those Resentment and Killing Intent have some kind of attraction to him?" As Chi Feichei spoke, he suddenly felt that it was really worth Researching.
But not Mori Kogoro, it's Conan.
Gin initially thought that Chi Feichei was Crazy again, and silently sympathized with that Famous Detective. He was being treated as an experimental observation subject. But after hearing the latter part, he also became a little Interested. "Which one do you think it is?"
Chi Feichei thought for a while, "Not sure."
"That's true," Gin immediately put down his Curiosity. "Detecting this kind of invisible Things requires professional Equipment, and even if it's detected, it's difficult to determine the Real Reason. It requires long-term Observation... If you want Equipment, you can tell The Boss."
"What I can't See through is not just this, but also his whole Person," Chi Feichei raised his Eyes and looked at the row of neat Windows in the Apartment Building opposite the Building. "I don't want him to find out that I'm Researching him."
Gin glanced sideways again, "The whole Person?"
