Chapter 55 Vodka: Almost Carved Out a White House
The evening wind howled, and on the rooftop of a tall building, Bai Yexiu, carrying a guitar case and a box of sushi, ran hurriedly.
He put on an earphone and placed the bag and sushi at the sniping spot he had scouted beforehand.
He knew that the reasoning session would take place in the evening, so he went out to play all day and just got here.
Bai Yexiu had installed a listening device in the venue where they were deducing the truth, and the sounds coming from the venue were playing through his earphones.
From Kogoro Mouri's logical reasoning in the earpiece, it can be deduced that Kogoro Mouri had been given a tranquilizer dart and was replaced by Conan.
Phew, thankfully I made it in time.
Bai Yexiu breathed a sigh of relief, took out a sniper rifle from his guitar case, set it up on the edge of the rooftop, and aimed his eyes at the scope. It seemed that he was almost ready.
It's definitely much easier to snipe here.
Bai Yexiu smiled, and through the large window of the venue, he had already aimed at Ishimoto Seiji's head.
But before he could even pull the trigger halfway, another idea popped into Bai Yexiu's mind.
He wanted to see Conan frantically searching for the sniper after someone was shot dead right in front of him.
This thought made him release the trigger. He listened to the reasoning in his earpiece, which was nearing its end, and decided to wait until the reasoning was finished before firing.
Since he'd finished the deduction, Conan could come looking for him more quickly, and he'd been wanting to play hide-and-seek for a long time.
"how so!?"
With a helpless cry from Representative Takada's secretary over the earpiece, a bullet whistled through the glass and landed precisely in Seiji Ishimoto's head.
As the broken glass hit the ground and Seiji Ishimoto collapsed, everyone in the venue was undoubtedly shocked. Even the loud noise of the shattering glass startled Kogoro Mouri, who was about to wake up.
"what!!!"
The classic screams echoed through the venue.
"Someone's sniping!" Conan and Kogoro Mouri exclaimed in unison, each taking cover behind obstacles. Conan activated his tracking glasses and aimed them at the building directly opposite the only window in the venue.
The venue only has one window, so if you want to snipe someone, the only option is to look at the building opposite that window.
Using his tracking glasses, Conan spotted a fleeting figure on the rooftop of the building across the street. He immediately rushed out of the venue to find the sniper, ignoring Ran's cries for help.
On the other side, Bai Yexiu quickly packed up his equipment and left the building as fast as he could.
Later, on a zebra crossing on a certain road, Byakuya successfully bumped into Conan, who was looking for a sniper.
Conan glanced in the direction Bai Yexiu had come from, then stopped and asked anxiously, "Did you see anyone suspicious on your way here?"
Bai Yexiu helplessly spread his hands: "No."
After hearing this answer, Conan continued charging forward.
Bai Yexiu turned back to look at Conan's departing figure and shook his head.
The real murderer was right in front of him, but he had no idea, and even asked the murderer if he had seen him.
It's so much fun! It's so much fun!
Bai Yexiu's lips curved into a smile once again.
When Conan arrived at the building, the rooftop was already deserted, and he didn't even encounter anyone who resembled a sniper on the street.
Conan gritted his teeth in resentment.
Who exactly is behind this mess?
……
Bai Yexiu, who planned to go home first, strolled leisurely along the roadside, while a Porsche seemed to follow him slowly with a purpose, eventually stopping beside him.
Bai Yexiu recognized the Porsche at a glance who owned it.
Who else could it be but Gin?
The car window slowly rolled down, and Gin's ever-present poker face appeared in front of Bai Yexiu, gesturing for him to get in the car and talk.
"on purpose?"
After Bai Yexiu got into the car, Gin asked three simple and cold questions.
"So what if it is?" Bai Yexiu smiled, crossed his arms, and leaned back in his chair.
Therefore, it is clear that Gin must have seen him deliberately not leaving immediately on the top floor, so that his figure could be seen by others.
"Hmph." Gin sneered. "Playing around is fine, but don't play yourself to death."
Bai Yexiu wasn't annoyed at all by Gin's sarcastic remarks, and replied with a smile, "But someone seems to enjoy playing even more than me, and even got surrounded by the police while playing before."
Gin will remember that embarrassing moment for the rest of his life.
Last time, Gin and he went to kill an FBI undercover agent. Gin didn't just kill him and leave immediately. Instead, he spent a few minutes torturing the undercover agent, leaving him riddled with holes. The screams attracted the police who were patrolling nearby, which led to the building they were in being surrounded.
However, the undercover agent ultimately died, and the two left the building without a trace.
"Is that so?" Gin grinned with a villainous smile. "Who had their bank account frozen while they were playing around?"
Despicable! It's like killing someone by destroying their spirit.
Bai Yexiu frowned and clicked his tongue.
To be honest, the bank account issue was the most painful for him. Gin actually brought it up with him, which was like killing him with his spirit.
"You're talking as if your bank account has never been frozen." Bai Yexiu fully displayed his sharp tongue.
"At least my reason for freezing things won't make me look like an idiot," Gin retorted sarcastically.
Within a minute, the car was filled with a strong sense of tension, with Bai Yexiu and Qin Jiu neither giving an inch and subtly hinting at each other's intentions.
Vodka, who had nothing to do, sat restlessly, wanting to say something but not daring to, and unsure how to do so. Gin hadn't asked him to drive, so he could only sit there awkwardly watching them argue.
It's like a young couple having a fight, and you happen to be their mutual friend.
……
Vodka felt those were the longest ten minutes of his life.
When Bai Yexiu got out of the car, Vodka secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
If Big Brother and Cointreau continue their sarcastic exchanges, he'll definitely dig a White House out of his toes!
