The Split-Actress in Conan's World

Chapter 123 Countdown to Heaven 8

When you walk into the cinema, the screen above you will see the trailer for the film being screened today.

Huibara Ai stood aside holding a cup of hot coffee and drinking it quietly, looking very leisurely.

Chiyoko first ran to deposit the things she bought, and then went to the front desk to check the screening schedule.

"It seems like there are only two games at this point."

Chiyoko pointed at "Bloody Betrayal" and "Einstein's Days of Glory and Trouble" on the film list and hesitated.

Haibara Ai came over and casually clicked on the former.

"That's it."

"I thought you would prefer the latter." Chiyoko was a little surprised and bought two tickets for "Bloody Betrayal" and a popcorn set.

"Three hours is a bit too long. It's nice to watch this kind of commercial film occasionally."

The two of them came in quickly. Haibara Ai sat down without any burden, while Chiyoko was holding a big bucket of popcorn and two cups of Coke in her hands.

However, Haibara Ai had coffee, so he gave one of the cups to a child nearby who was staring at them curiously.

The child said thank you in a soft voice and ran to hold the hand of a woman, who looked like his mother.

The two didn't have to wait long before the lights in the theater went out and the movie began playing on the big screen.

The plot tells the story of a brother and sister who are involved in a dangerous criminal organization by chance. In order to protect his sister's safety, the brother desperately strengthens himself and takes over all the tasks assigned to his sister by the organization. Even in this hell, he protects his sister very well.

But this is not a long-term solution. In order to free his sister from this dangerous organization, the brother secretly contacted Interpol, which was tracking down the organization, and made a deal with them, allowing them to act as an insider and create an opportunity to destroy the organization.

Finally, with the unremitting efforts of all parties, the organization was defeated. Interpol protected his sister as agreed, and his sister was able to live a normal life. However, because his brother had committed too many evil deeds, he could no longer turn back. He was regarded as a remnant of the organization and died under the judgment of justice.

The sister, who had been kept in the dark, thought that her brother would be forgiven like herself because he was a victim and would be able to return to a normal life. She started a new life in a new residence, waiting and waiting day after day, until her hair turned white and she never saw her brother again.

The final scene freezes on an unmarked tombstone, with wild dandelions swaying in the wind.

The movie ends.

The lights in the theater came on again, as if creating a ripple in Haibara Ai's stagnant heart.

She suddenly felt a little blocked in her heart.

The movie made her unable to help but associate.

If the organization is really defeated one day in the future, Glenfiddich will undoubtedly not escape judgment.

He is an out and out villain.

But she didn't want him to die.

Even if we don't think too far into the future, the mere fact of Shirley's defection could put Glenfiddich in danger.

Just like after Shuichi Akai defected, his sister was no longer trusted as the introducer, and as a result, his younger sister also became a pawn that could be discarded at will in the eyes of the organization.

Now that Shirley has also defected, Glenfiddich, as her guardian, will probably be suspected by the organization and will be unable to take any step forward.

If she were discovered by the organization at this juncture, it would likely lead to the elimination of Glenfiddich.

If the organization is destroyed, Glenfiddich may die.

As long as the organization survives, Grunfiddie may die.

She didn't know what to do.

In the end, she didn't know how she returned to the doctor's house in a trance.

"Did I help you move your things to the room?" Chiyoko asked, and Haibara Ai nodded absentmindedly.

Hearing the answer she wanted, a gleam of light flashed in Chiyoko's eyes and a smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.

He went down to the basement carrying bags of things.

There was indeed a bulge on the flat bed where the pillow was.

......

Just as Haibara Ai could not have imagined that not only was Grunfiddi not suspected by the organization but also successfully held power, Grunfiddi also did not expect that Haibara Ai would be thinking about him at this time.

"Ah Qiu——"

He sneezed, startling Vodka who was rummaging through the drawers nearby.

They came to retrieve the tracking software that Gin and Vodka had previously placed in Miyano Akemi's apartment.

Originally, based on his understanding of Shirley, Gin thought that she would definitely call her sister in order to find out her location.

However, I didn't expect that she had never called here.

This made Gin a little puzzled.

Glenfiddich was quite leisurely. He looked around, pulled out a biomedical work from the bookshelf, flipped through it casually, and put it back.

can't read......

Gin instructed Vodka to uninstall the software, and took out his mobile phone to edit something.

After a while, Glenfiddich felt the phone in his pocket vibrate.

It seems that Gin is sending an action report to the Boss.

He ignored the vibration and nonchalantly pulled an orange-flavored lollipop from his pocket, unwrapped it and popped it into his mouth.

Gin seemed to be free, and was not in a good mood. Seeing his actions, he couldn't help but sneer and said, "Childish."

Gryffindor raised his brow.

"Do you still want that car?"

Gin was silent for a moment. He was actually a little afraid that this madman would place a bomb in his Porsche.

He had driven that car for many years and was really reluctant to blow it up.

Seeing his silence, Glenfiddich smiled.

Gin is still easy to control. It is more effective to threaten him with the car than to attack him personally.

"That old antique of yours is too eye-catching. The staff remembered its features in front of the Twin Towers yesterday. If they were to investigate, your whereabouts would be obvious. You should change your car as soon as possible."

"You have the right to say that I'm an eyesore?"

Gin looked at him and sneered.

"You were noticed the day after you were transferred here. Most of the bombings in New York suddenly disappeared, and bombings began to appear frequently in Tokyo. Whose whereabouts were clearly known?"

Glenfiddich had no rebuttal.

Vodka acted quickly and uninstalled the software in no time.

"Brother, it's done."

"Let's go." After confirming that the vodka left no obvious traces, Gin lit a cigarette and walked towards the door.

Vodka soon followed.

The three of them left Miyano Akemi's apartment.

Behind the still hot light tube, a small button-shaped eavesdropping device was working diligently.

A Mazda parked on the side of the road on a street in Tokyo.

Akai Shuichi pressed the earphones, frowned, and murmured in a low voice: "Twin Towers..."

He quickly figured something out and gave an order into the communication channel: "Immediately send someone to the twin towers in Nishitama City, disguised as a staff member inspecting the circuits. There may be people watching nearby, so don't reveal any flaws."

"The target is the computer control room on the 40th floor. Try to copy the data there. Don't connect to the Internet. Use a physical connection."

As he spoke, he looked up relevant information about the Twin Towers and saw that the VIP elevator used independent power distribution.

"Also confirm whether there are any signs of explosives in the backup power distribution room on the third floor. There is no need for a very detailed search. Concealment is the priority."

After many days, the FBI, which had entered the country without permission, also began to work in full swing.

Miyano Akemi sat aside, listening quietly to Akai Shuichi's orders.

The FBI invited her to join the witness protection program, but she declined.

It was the Maharaja who advised her to refuse.

The essence of the witness protection program is that the FBI provides her with a new identity and a certain degree of protection, and she must cooperate with all FBI investigations, especially intelligence information.

But her sister's identity could not be revealed no matter what. Rejuvenation was too shocking. On the other hand, she was unwilling to give up her identity as Miyano Akemi, which was the only proof of the Miyano family's existence in the world.

In order to survive, the younger sister had to give up Miyano Shiho's identity. If Miyano Akemi disappears again, there will be no Miyano family in this world.

Moreover, Maharaja said that he would protect her and she would not need to join the witness protection program.

She believed in Maharaja.

The Maharaja knew about her and her sister, but he didn't tell his FBI colleagues about it, which was very indulgent to her.

For someone like her who was caught in the process of committing a crime, if she did not join the witness protection program to facilitate the FBI, the best outcome would be to go to jail and face trial.

But the Maharajah saved her by himself.

She was already very grateful for this.

In fact, she didn't blame the prince for leaving without saying goodbye a few years ago. She knew that as an undercover agent, he had many things that were beyond his control.

And even if the Maharaja had confessed to her at that time and expressed his intention to take her away from the organization, she would have refused.

She can't let go of Shiho.

It would be better to say that it is the best ending now, that I have successfully left the organization and Shiho has luckily escaped.

It’s a pity that in order to prevent the FBI from noticing Shiho, she had to suppress her excitement and was unable to recognize Shiho.

At least she knew that Shiho was living a good life now, and that was enough.

In order not to cause trouble to her sister, she had to stay away.

What is important to her now is how to use this identity of a "criminal" to gain the trust of the FBI and no longer be closely watched by them.

The Maharaja's guarantee alone is not enough. Once the real high-ranking officials notice her, the ace agent's guarantee alone will not be able to keep her.

She wants to demonstrate her own value, and even has an ambition that cannot be expressed explicitly.

She wants to use the power of the FBI to create a better future for herself and her sister.

Don't underestimate Miyano Akemi. She may be a little soft-hearted, but she is definitely not stupid.

It's better to say that she is smarter than the average person.

Not everyone can plan a successful robbery within a week and steal 10 billion.

When people are looking forward to something, time tends to pass quickly.

The opening ceremony of the twin towers held by the Tokiwa Foundation is on the weekend. Gin, Glenfiddich and others, the FBI, and the Junior Detective League are all waiting for this day to come.

However, even though time flies, everything that is supposed to happen still happens.

The fact that Yuan Jiaming was murdered was finally discovered.

The Junior Detective Team visited Yuan Jiaming's home at the agreed time, but found that his door was not locked. When they entered, they saw Yuan Jiaming lying on the ground with his eyes open.

The conspicuous bullet hole on his forehead made Conan alert.

It's not his fault. He has been sensitive since he saw Gin's car in the Twin Towers that day.

Soon the children called the police, and the police arrived and took control of the scene.

There were no twists and turns in the end. The deceased was murdered. The house was very clean, with no signs of a fight, and nothing was messed up, so robbery and theft-homicide could be ruled out.

There are only three suspicious points worth noting. One is that the deceased was holding a silver table knife in his hand. According to Inspector Megure's judgment, it was probably because the deceased was about to eat cake at that time and happened to discover the murderer and planned to use the knife to resist.

Secondly, the deceased's computer was cleared, but the police have no clue about this for now.

In the end, just like the case of Councillor Oki's murder, a small wine glass cut in half appeared next to the body.

Finally, the police merged the two cases and treated them as a serial murder case.

After the police questioned the children from the Junior Detective Team about the details, they were driven out of the scene on the grounds that "children are not suitable to watch such scenes."

On the way home, Conan was lost in thought.

"Do you think this case could have been committed by those guys?" He approached Huihara Ai and asked.

"The silver knife represents the Roman word for 'silver', which is 'Gin', which means gin in English... And killing the person with one strike and clearing the computer is also very much their style."

Huiyuan Ai disagreed, "Do you think they would do something as mysterious as putting a small wine glass next to the corpse?"

"That's right." Conan sighed.

It was this detail that made him unsure of his own reasoning. That organization would not leave clues in such a ritualistic way when killing people.

This clean and tidy way of killing was inconsistent with the act of leaving a murder message, and the strong sense of contradiction between them made him feel conflicted.

Time passed little by little as Conan was struggling.

In a blink of an eye, it was the weekend, the day of the opening ceremony of the Twin Towers.

To this day, the Metropolitan Police Department has not made any progress in the case involving Councilman Oki and Hara Yoshiaki, and because of this, Inspector Megure has been under a lot of pressure.

Municipal pressure in Nishitama City is severe.

If there is no result in the next two days, his career as superintendent of police will probably be over.

This made him very depressed.

There's no way. Brother Kudo's whereabouts are unknown, brother Rin has been busy with Suzuki Group's affairs recently and has rarely appeared in public, and brother Hattori is staying in Osaka honestly.

The only one they could count on, brother Mori, has not fallen asleep yet, and the Metropolitan Police Department is somewhat stretched.

Yesterday, when the Junior Detective Team was called to the Metropolitan Police Department to inquire more about the situation because they were the first discoverers of the Hara Jiaming case, Inspector Megure kept looking at Conan and Chiyoko with strange eyes and sighed from time to time.

This made the children feel a little uneasy.

Inspector Megure thought that these two children seemed to know a lot, and maybe they could provide the police with some different ideas.

Unfortunately, it's too small.

No matter what, the stigma of child labor abuse is too heavy for the Metropolitan Police Department to bear.

If they were a little older, even around 14 years old, he would feel free to let them participate in the investigation of the case, throw all the clues to them, and then wait for their answers with expectant eyes.

It was around this age that Kudo Shinichi began to frequently come into contact with cases involving the Metropolitan Police Department.
