Chapter 159 Gloating over misfortune
Chapter 159 Gloating over misfortune
Seeing Kiel interviewing Yasuki Domon through the scope, Chianti was getting impatient, "Why are you taking so long, Kiel?"
Gin saw the scene from the camera hidden in the brooch that Kiel was wearing, and commanded Kiel through the communicator, "Okay, Kiel, just take DJ to the designated location."
"Okay, that's it." Seeing that everything was developing as planned, Cohen, who usually had a blank expression, also smiled.
Cointreau, who was sitting behind Gin, leaned forward slightly and looked at the surveillance screen curiously, feeling a little surprised that no unexpected situation had occurred yet.
Sure enough, this mission is not going to go smoothly.
Pedestrians on the roadside recognized Yasuki Domon and gathered around him, creating many obstacles for Cohen and Chianti in their aiming.
"I see. Can I shoot?" Although there were many people around Yasuteru Domon, Cohen still aimed at the target and asked Gin if he could shoot.
But to Cohen's disappointment, Gin stopped him.
"Wait a minute, Cohen, there are too many people in the way. Wait until DJ sits on the bench before you shoot."
"Why don't we let them shoot? There are just a few more people around, but with Chianti and Cohen's abilities, they should be able to hit them." Cointreau stopped looking at the surveillance screen. He leaned back in the car seat, crossed his arms, and kindly gave Gin some advice.
Alas, before anyone has tried to stop this operation, an accident has already occurred. If we don't take action before the protagonist starts to act, there will probably be more accidents later, and it is very likely that this assassination operation will fail.
"Why do you say that? What did you find out?" Gin turned his head slightly and looked at Cointreau and asked.
"I didn't find anything, it's just a hunch. I'm just giving a suggestion. It's up to you as the person in charge to decide what to do." Jundu raised his eyebrows and answered casually.
After thinking for a while, Gin still did not give the order to shoot and decided to proceed according to the original plan. After all, the original plan had taken various factors into consideration and was the most likely to be error-free.
"Kil, why aren't you taking action yet? Let DJ sit on the bench quickly." Gin began to urge Kiel to act quickly.
Hearing Gin's urging, Kiel walked up to Yasuki Domon and prepared to take him to the bench to start the interview.
Soon, following Kir's lead, Gin smiled as he watched Yasuki Domon walk to the bench.
However, another accident happened. Most people around Domon Yasuki held up umbrellas to shield the target's body.
Cointreau saw the situation on the screen and subconsciously reached out his hand to the car window to feel whether there was any drizzle.
When he just stretched out his hand, he didn't feel the falling raindrops, but after a few dozen seconds, Jundu felt water drops falling on his palm. It was obviously raining now.
Cointreau: ...
At this time, Cointreau had already guessed that the "rain" at Domon Yasuki's place was obviously not real rain, but artificially caused. Gin had a chance to detect the abnormality, but the real rain that fell later helped them and covered up the abnormal rainfall at that time.
It really seems like God is helping the protagonist.
It seems that if I want to go against the protagonist Edogawa Conan in the future, I have to be more careful and pay more attention to details and coincidences, Jundu reminded himself in his heart.
It was raining at the scene and people were holding umbrellas.
Obviously, the shooting hit rate will drop now. This assassination has failed, and we can only activate the second plan.
Gin was too impatient to watch the useless surveillance footage and simply turned off the screen.
However, what he didn't know was that if he had turned off the screen a little later, he would have been able to see from the surveillance video a boy picking up the shoes that Kiel had dropped, and then he might have discovered that this child had a close relationship with Mouri Kogoro, and thus suspected that Mouri Kogoro had discovered something and was following Kiel.
But unfortunately, Gin turned off the screen too early and he didn't notice anything.
On the other hand, Conan was discovered by Kiel and noticed that something was wrong with Kiel, so he didn't have time to retrieve the transmitter and bug stuck on Kiel's soles.
It is also for this reason that Conan and Judy were able to learn about the Black Organization's subsequent assassination plans from the eavesdropping device, and thus arrange people in advance to stop the assassination, and by the way, further try to intercept one or two code members of the organization, hoping to get more information about the organization from them.
Of course, in order to ensure the safety of Kogoro Mouri and Ran Mouri, before the official operation, Judy and Conan asked Professor Agasa and Haibara to go back and bring Ran and the others to the professor. Later, Judy will also arrange for a few FBI people to protect their safety.
The plan went smoothly. They successfully blocked a member of the organization and made him incapable of action.
What was unexpected was that the person captured was not Vermouth, but Kil.
What's even more troublesome is that Gin discovered the transmitter and bug under the shoes that Kir had replaced, and he suspected Kogoro Mouri as expected. He informed the boss and prepared to cancel the operation and change the target.
"Change target? Then... where is the next target?" Vermouth rode on the motorcycle, opened the helmet with one hand, and tore off the disguise he had prepared earlier.
"The next target...Kogoro Mori, the Mori Detective Agency in Beika-cho 5-chome." Gin's lips curled slightly, and he spoke in a low voice about the changed target.
Cointreau, who was sitting in the back seat of the car, raised his eyebrows with interest when he heard the name of the target that Gin had just said. He was really curious about how Vermouth would react when she heard Gin say the name of Kogoro Mori.
Her reaction must have been shocking.
But Cointo thinks that when Vermouth saw Conan Edogawa in the parking lot of Haido Park, she should have been mentally prepared. Given the child's ability to act, it is normal for the people around her to be involved.
But he didn't expect it would happen so quickly, and Gin would immediately lock onto Kogoro Mouri. Although he hasn't noticed Conan, the real "mastermind", Cointreau feels that if this continues, Gin will sooner or later notice this child.
I just don’t know how the protagonist is going to solve this crisis, and how Vermouth is going to dissuade Gin from doing this.
Not long after, Vodka drove to Vermouth, took her into the car, and then they rushed to Beika Town.
After getting in the car, Vermouth noticed that Cointreau was looking at her with a slightly gloating look, and couldn't help but glare at him.
He glanced at Gin who was sitting in front of him, and swallowed the sarcasm that was about to come out of his mouth.
Oh, her cool guy might be in danger, and it would be fine if Cointreau didn't help, but he was gloating over it. She was just waiting to see how Cointreau would react when the hard-won princess was in danger.
