Conan: On the possibility that Whiskey is an undercover agent

Chapter 9: Can a social animal still be called a social animal if it doesn't do any work?

"Yoshi——"

The man in protective clothing stood up and gestured to the police officers watching downstairs, meaning that the mission was accomplished.

The next task is to evacuate and clean up the scene. For some reason, the bomber who had disappeared recently has become active again. Although they are just small-scale incidents, such frequent appearances give Kenji Hagiwara a bad feeling.

"I've already told you that I've taken good protective measures. You're just worrying for nothing."

Matsuda Jinpei hit the man on the back in annoyance, "Who was so confident last time?"

"Yo, great luck, Matsuda!"

"Squad leader? Why are you here?"

Both of them were shocked. Yi Dahang scratched his head and said, "We are short of manpower recently. I was transferred here too. It seems that there will be a major overhaul."

"What major overhaul?"

Jinpei Matsuda and Kenji Hagiwara looked at each other and realized that there seemed to be some hidden story here.

"It seems like you are a temporary field officer. This place was a mess before, with the drug abuse rate among teenagers 7% higher than the average. But the biggest drug lord here turned himself in a few days ago, so the higher-ups are going to investigate this place. Do you think the patrols here are much stricter than other places?"

At this point, Yi Dahang paused and whispered, "Before, all the grassroots people here were dismissed. I heard that it was because of corruption and cover-up, so there are new people everywhere. And the previous forces have not been cleared out yet, so you better be careful."

So that's how it is. Such a big thing actually happened. They have been busy these days and have no time to pay attention to these things. No wonder they always run into acquaintances on the road recently, but these things should not affect their explosives.

"Oh, by the way, this is for you. It's wedding candy. Take it for good luck."

After being unexpectedly stuffed with two candies, the two people, who had long lost their desire for sugar, looked at each other, and smiled at the same time the next second.

"You married Natalie? When did it happen? Why didn't you tell us!?"

"That's not fair! We don't just want to eat the wedding candy!"

Ida Hang was surrounded by two people. Since he had rarely had such a brain since he was working, he held both heads steady with one hand and explained: "The patrol team encountered a newlywed couple, and a child gave a lot of wedding candies, which Officer Gojo distributed to me!"

"Oh--"

The disappointment was visibly evident. Date Kou gave everyone a slap on the face. Matsuda Jinpei hid behind Hagiwara Kenji and grinned, "Then your progress is too slow, squad leader!"

"What are you talking about when you don't even have a girlfriend!"

The slap did not fall on Jinpei Matsuda, but instead Hagiwara Kenji was hit twice. He was not angry and joined in the fun with Jinpei Matsuda, and the atmosphere was somewhat like the playful fights during class breaks in their school days.

Putting aside the last time Lei was harassed by the bartender in the bar, this person was the most active in Paxton's mission. Scotland and Tokaj almost relied on him to lead the way.

No one likes to work, and even undercover agents are passive and lazy. Tokaj is asked to do overtime on field missions every day, and he is about to quit.

Of course, I don't dare to resign for the time being. When I don't have the ability to escape from the organization's pursuit, doing this is tantamount to suicide.

"The bomber? Ah, the guy who's been acting so aggressively recently?"

After hearing this, Ye Shiyi remembered this guy who suddenly appeared some time ago, but didn't cause any big trouble. He has been unusually active recently.

After figuring out how long these two had been slacking off, Lei suddenly felt that his future was bleak. He roughly knew that Gin disliked him, although he didn't know why, but at the moment it was probably not because he had caught his flaws.

"Tatsu, he should be Paxton's partner in the outside alliance. But I think there is more than one person. Paxton has a record of taking extra money outside. This person has completed many difficult tasks, which is definitely not something that one person can do."

Scottish Tokaj: ...oh

Lei has begun to suspect that these two people are undercover agents. Not only were they slacking off at the beginning of the mission, but they are still slacking off now.

"Ahem, so we still need to find out who his collaborators are?"

“At present, this is correct.”

Yeshiro Iori spread his hands and said, "You can see that people here don't really support our blatant investigation."

"By the way, the bomber should have been noticed by the police by now."

This made Lei frown. He had to continue the mission under the noses of the police... This mission was very important to him. Gin would definitely make a fuss about it, so it had to be perfect.

Gin hasn't had time to cause trouble for Lei recently, as he still has to clean up the mess that Tokaj was sold out by an undercover agent.

If something happened to the core researchers, Mr. Tokaj would be furious. He could be considered one of the first researchers to be involved in human experiments. He was also the first to produce results. Mr. Tokaj always valued this child.

"Brother, that guy has been dealt with. What should we do next?"

The result of the investigation showed that the guy who sold the information was someone else, and it seemed that this person was targeting Tokaj. Gin took a puff of cigarette and began to think about who this kid had offended recently and why he wanted to take revenge on a researcher.

But Tokaj rarely came into contact with code members other than the research group. Even with Vermouth, with whom he seemed to have a good relationship, he only said a few teasing words during meetings.

He was sure that Vermouth was unaware of the power behind Tokaj, and that the Yeshi family had always done a good job of keeping secrets. This was also the reason why the organization frequently cooperated with the Yeshi family but never leaked any news.

The phone screen lit up again the moment it was turned off, with an email notification with a string of numbers.

Gin understood and it was time to remind him to hand in his homework.

The final decision-making power still fell into the hands of Iori Yemuro. It was so difficult to obtain information that even the formulation of plans was restricted.

But there is a solution. We just have to wait and see for a while, at least until the incident with the police has passed.

Tokaj was not the only one who was somewhat curious about Ley, Scotland had also been keeping an eye on him. After all, they were snipers who received code names at the same time, and they had the same positions, so they rarely went on missions together.

Although it's not a good idea to say this, at least for Scotland, Gin is a reliable boss, as can be seen from the fact that he gave him a sneak peek of the last assessment task.

Bourbon and Rye both seem to be targeted by Gin. The former is from the intelligence team and the latter is in the same group. He should not be the kind of person who would bring personal emotions into the mission.

It’s impossible that Lei is also an undercover agent?

This speculation even struck Scotland himself as absurd. He felt that the fact that he and Bourbon were two undercover agents was a coincidence. If Ley was also one of them, then this organization might as well go bankrupt.

Right now is the time when the opportunity is at its peak, and Paxton has hidden himself very well. Ye Mu Yizhi can only turn to the information dealer.

Although there are people who specialize in this job in the organization, Iori Yamuro remembered the last mission in the hotel and decided to do it on his own. Paxton is ten times more dangerous than the last mission, and with Bourbon's cunning eyes, Iori Yamuro feels that he can die more transparent than glass.

[Why are you always targeted by bombers?

——From luka.】

It is difficult to contact local intelligence dealers for the time being, but fortunately I met a hacker from Country R in Crimea some time ago. The suffix of every email he sends is Luka, so Ye Mu Yizhi calls him that for the time being.

[Well, this guy is really good at hiding. But his companion has been quite active recently, playing tricks on the police with bombs every day. Did you offend him?

——From luka.】

This question needs to be further investigated. Iori Yemuro chose to remain silent. Maybe Paxton disliked him so much that he had to find a bomber to annoy him.

However, Iori Yemuro thinks that he is very popular and he is not the kind of guy who is annoying. This is purely Paston's own problem.

Even your life was saved, so being too greedy is not a good thing.

Of course, this intelligence will not be known to Scotland, otherwise the source of the intelligence will be exposed.

Putting Paxton aside for now, Iori Yemuro has more important things to do - it's time for the routine boss' progress check.

This time, Scotland did not send him off, but Gin came to pick him up personally. Since he turned eighteen, Iori Yemuro was rarely taken around by Gin.

At that time, Rum, who was trusted by the boss, suggested that Gin take over Shirley and assign Macallan to Iori Yemuro as the new supervisor. If you calculate the time, it was only last year.

But it seemed like a long time had passed.

The last meeting with the boss left a deep impression on Ye Mu Yi Zhi. McAllen kicked him out of the car, as if the resentment that had been accumulated for a long time had exploded:

"Yes, Tokaj, this is the boss's supervision time. I finally don't have to follow your stupid peanut ass around anymore! I'm going to find my time. You'd better call me tomorrow and wish me a good day!"

After speaking so much without taking a breath, the gentleman slammed the car door shut. All of this was done in a few seconds. In the blink of an eye, he drove away, as if getting rid of him was such a joyful thing.

As expected, undercover agents hate their jobs.

Gin glanced at him as he haphazardly crumpled the package into his pocket, thinking that this man was not in a good mood to meet the boss. In fact, it has always been like this.

Of course, based on Gin's understanding of him, it was more likely that the chocolate bar of this flavor was not tasty, but he chose to ignore this. There was absolutely no way he would get out of the car to buy it for him.
