Chapter 26 Vodka's Deception
After finishing off the lewd young man, Bai Yeshu returned to the hotel.
Who was it? It turned out to be An Qing.
Anqing was a gang that the organization supported a few years ago. This year, they have become much stronger and wanted to break free from control. So, the organization simply increased the fees they had to pay. Unexpectedly, Anqing went out and used other people's names to cheat and swindle money because the organization charged them more.
Bai Yexiu opened the list of people to be criticized this month, and sure enough, An Qing was on the list.
Oh.
Disobeying orders, plus the money they make from him, is enough to kill this gangster countless times.
Suddenly, the vibration of his phone interrupted Bai Yexiu's thoughts. It was Gin calling.
"Recently, a group of people have been selling fake information under the guise of 'Binding Chains'." Gin's voice was devoid of any emotion.
Bai Yexiu smiled and said, "So, Gin, you've been tricked?"
Meanwhile, Conan, who was pondering the case, heard these words as soon as he turned a corner. Startled, he immediately hid.
Gin? Did he just hear Gin?
Conan peeked out from behind the wall and saw a young man in black walking down the corridor, talking on the phone. He was wearing a black mask and hat and looked exactly like the organization member he remembered.
Could he be a member of the organization?
Conan followed quietly.
While on the phone, Bai Yexiu was busy teasing Gin and didn't notice Conan standing not far behind him. He had already noticed Conan, and since Conan had overheard his conversation with Gin, he might as well use it to scare him!
Gin, upon hearing this, was not angered and calmly replied, "It's vodka."
Inside the Porsche, Vodka, sitting in the driver's seat, silently shrank back.
"Looks like Vodka wasn't very vigilant; he fell for such a clumsy trick," Bai Yexiu teased with a smile.
"What? You've met him before?" Gin's eyes narrowed.
I not only met him, I also interrogated him.
“Of course, all I can say is that the trick was clumsy.” Bai Yexiu made a shrug, though Gin couldn’t see it.
Upon hearing this, Gin gave Vodka a deep look. Vodka, receiving this ambiguous gaze, scratched the back of his head sheepishly.
Conan, who was standing behind Byakuya, was shocked. He had just heard two code names, Gin and Vodka... So this person was in cahoots with those two men in black!
Thinking it over, Conan took out a listening device...
"Also, could you please keep your voice consistent when you call me in the future?"
Gin noticed that every time he talked to Cointreau on the phone, Cointreau spoke in a different voice each time, which made him have to observe whether the person on the other end of the phone was actually Cointreau before making a call.
"No," Bai Yexiu said jokingly, then hung up the phone.
He thought so too. Didn't he have Conan behind him? He was currently using the identity of an adult male, so wouldn't it be strange if he suddenly spoke in a boy's voice?
In short, he can't speak in his natural voice as long as Conan is around.
"Big brother, do you know how to get to the restroom?" Conan tugged at Bai Yexiu's sleeve, and while he was at it, he secretly stuck a listening device to Bai Yexiu's sleeve.
When Bai Yexiu turned his head, Conan met Bai Yexiu's light purple eyes and couldn't help but feel a sense of familiarity.
After dealing with the lewd young man, Bai Yexiu changed back into his light purple contact lenses, as he still felt they suited his new persona better.
"I don't know, little brother, go ask someone else!" Bai Yexiu was about to habitually pat Conan's head, but he forcibly stopped himself.
Sure enough, Conan wanted to touch his head again after he finished touching it.
"Okay, thank you, big brother." Conan pretended to be disappointed and was about to leave when he was grabbed.
"Little brother," Bai Yexiu said calmly, pulling Conan aside, "It's wrong to play pranks on others."
Conan: !
Before Conan could finish being shocked, Bai Yexiu tore the listening device off the corner of his clothes, pulled Conan's hand over, and placed it in his palm.
Conan: Extremely insulting.
"Hahaha... Big brother, I was just playing a prank!" Conan said awkwardly, pretending to be a child.
Bai Yexiu didn't continue the conversation and left directly.
It seems impossible for him to go back to his room now. He had just passed by his room, but with Conan around, he couldn't go in.
Having failed to plant the listening device, Conan decided to follow him directly. He followed Hakuya to a corner, where he discovered—
The person has disappeared.
His target mysteriously disappeared after turning a corner.
Having searched in vain, Conan returned the way he came, pondering why members of the organization would be here.
Conan felt his mind was in turmoil. First, he still couldn't figure out the locked-room murder method, and now, for some reason, members of the organization had come to this hotel.
correct!
A thought flashed through his mind. The purpose of this tour was the computer virus called the Dark Night Baron; could it be that the organizers were also after that?
We absolutely cannot let them get this!
Conan knew how much damage this virus could cause to businesses and banks, and of course he couldn't let them fall into the hands of the Black Organization.
but……
Conan caught a glimpse of a room he had just passed and suddenly remembered that it belonged to Ryuzawa.
Come to think of it, when he first discovered that member of the organization, he seemed to be heading in the direction of Long Ze's room!
Conan was startled and immediately knocked on the door. There's another possibility: the organization member's target might be Ryuzawa!
He could tell that Long Ze seemed to be the young master of some company. If the members of the organization had come to kidnap Long Ze to extort money from some company... wouldn't that make sense?
Conan knocked for a long time without getting a response, and he gradually started to panic. He had just run a few steps to look elsewhere when the person he was looking for appeared in front of him with a stick.
"Ryuzawa? Did you encounter any strange people just now?" Conan breathed a sigh of relief, but at the same time was very anxious.
Bai Yexiu ate with a very contented expression: "No."
Hearing this, Conan finally breathed a sigh of relief. He glanced at the half-eaten food in Ryuzawa's hand and thought that Ryuzawa had probably just gone out to buy some—but it was best that he hadn't been kidnapped!
Conan was just about to tell Shiroya that the Black Organization might be coming to kidnap him when he realized he hadn't told Shiroya about the Black Organization yet.
"By the way, how's that case coming along?" Bai Yexiu asked curiously.
He had just checked the time; in the script, this was already the time when Kogoro would be anesthetized.
Conan's expression turned serious: "There are still some things that haven't been proven..."
Bai Yexiu patted Conan's head: "Then you can continue to prove it. I'm going to sleep after I finish eating." After saying that, he turned around and went back to his room.
Conan stared at the closed door, his lips twitching.
This guy really loves to sleep.
