Detective Conan: The System Takes Me to Zero's World

Chapter 228: Wrong code, waves of trouble: the showdown between the FBI and the winery

Conan put away the transmitter. This small device will play its role and provide crucial assistance to their actions.

At this time, where Kudo Yuki was, Vermouth drove the car and stopped here. She tilted her head slightly, and a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, "Fine wine, get in the car."

Kudo Yuki's eyes were stern. She slowly approached, opened the door, and saw Mizunashi Rena sitting in the car. She quickly glanced at her and then sat in the passenger seat. "Absinthe, is there a new order?"

Vermouth chuckled and started the car. "Of course it's something important."

The car sped along the street, heading towards the base.

The three of them got off the car and came to the computer room. Vermouth turned on the computer and quickly tapped on the keyboard. She intercepted the FBI agent's code and used a special deciphering instrument to obtain information from the numbers and letters on the screen.

She pressed the microphone: "Another coded FBI email has been intercepted. It seems that they don't know their companions have been killed. The location is the parking lot at 1-chome-4, Kadefu-cho, in an hour. Your car can be there in 30 minutes, right? Binga."

"Ten minutes is enough."

"I'll go with Kiel, and the vodka and gin will be the same as before."

"receive."

Gin's voice was filled with murderous intent. "Something big is about to happen, so it's better to kill as many flies as possible."

At this time, Kudo Yuki also heard the mixed mechanical sounds beside Mizunashi Rena. "Wait."

The winery members’ reactions were somewhat surprising.

"This, this sound..."

"Although the sound has been changed by the machine..."

"Can't be wrong."

“This is the second in command of our organization…”

"Rum."

At this moment, Kudo Yuki heard the system announcement: "Issuing a side mission, letting Cameron send out intelligence and blocking Karasuma Renya from activating Bourbon's subsequent undercover mission."

Shushu poked his little head out, looking like a gossip lover, and muttered gloatingly: "Hey, Xiaoxue, this task is not easy, you have to take it easy, don't cry when the time comes."

Kudo Yuki narrowed her eyes and retorted telepathically: "Shu Shu, you just want to watch the fun and make trouble, right? Okay, since you want to make trouble so much, then I will definitely complete it."

When Shushu heard this, his eyes rolled around and he stole a glance at Kudo Yuki's expression. He thought something was wrong and quickly retreated, then jumped onto a nearby table with a "whoosh".

A cunning light flashed in Kudo Yuki's eyes, like a little devil. She slowly picked up the wine glass, poured in the red wine, and then placed it next to Shushu.

The rat stared at the wine glass with his eyes wide open. He leaned close to the red wine in the glass, sniffed it with his little nose, picked at the glass, and began to drink the little red wine in the glass with his little mouth.

It feels great when you drink it, but when you want to jump down, it's not so easy.

It staggered to the edge of the table, muttering, "Xiaoxue, why is the room shaking? Is there an earthquake?"

Kudo Yuki raised her eyebrows and watched Shushu's small body swaying as it jumped towards her shoulder, but she missed it.

With a "pop", it touched the broom next to it.

Shushu was tripped by the broom and rolled directly from the table to the ground. With a "plop", he lay on his back with his belly exposed, making a standard "big" shape.

Originally, the rat was still confused and didn't behave itself. It kicked the broom with a "bang". Then the broom handle hit its head with a "bang". The rat fainted directly. It looked like a defeated little wretch.

Kudo Yuki looked at the fainted Shushu and smiled secretly. "Hmph, I told you to be naughty. Now you are behaved." She bent down, gently picked up Shushu and put him in her pocket.

After a while, Shushu woke up slowly, his head still a little dizzy. He shook his head and looked around in confusion. "Huh? What happened to me?"

When Shu Shu saw Kudo Yuki's half-smile, he suddenly remembered what happened before and immediately put his little head into his pocket.

Shushu tried to save his image. "Um...Xiaoxue, it was just an accident. You should think about how to deal with the mission."

Kudo Xue rolled his eyes at it and jokingly said telepathically, "Are you anxious now? Who was gloating over someone else's misfortune just now?"

Shushu scratched his head awkwardly, "Hehe, that was just a moment of confusion. Let's discuss the mission quickly, otherwise we'll be in trouble again later."

After Vermouth finished her work, she cut off the connection. She turned slightly and her eyes fell on Kudo Yuki, "Jiang, that gentleman asked me to tell you to go to the FBI meeting place."

Kudo Yuki nodded slightly, her expression calm, making it impossible to tell what she was thinking. Her eyes moved between Vermouth and Mizunashi Rena, secretly calculating the situation she was about to face.

Rena Mizunashi stood aside, preparing for the upcoming action.

Vermouth smiled. "Fine wine, this mission is not easy, you have to be careful."

Kudo Yuki did not respond, but just silently adjusted her clothes.

Vermouth was the first to break the silence. "Let's go, time is running out. We can't delay too long."

The three of them walked out of the room and took Vermouth's car to the parking lot at 1-chome-4, Kadefu-cho.

The atmosphere in the car was solemn. As Vermouth was driving, she glanced at the rearview mirror from time to time, observing the situation around her.

Shu Shu called up the system screen and saw that Cameron and Mark had already arrived at the parking lot.

Cameron pressed the microphone to report the situation: "Mark and I followed the code and waited in the underground parking lot of 1-chome 4, Kadeppu-cho. Five minutes have passed the designated time, and there is no sign of them coming. Miss Judy, did you write the wrong code?"

"Impossible. I checked several times. What's the situation of the external team monitoring the parking lot?"

Two FBI members outside the parking lot were using night vision goggles and binoculars to observe the surrounding situation.

"This is Bill and David. No one is near the building where the parking lot is."

"Did Miss Judy write the wrong code?"

"I think so too." Just as he finished speaking, a bullet pierced his heart and David screamed.

Conan heard the scream coming from the speakers and gritted his teeth unwillingly: "That's the sound of a bullet hitting someone."

Judy called out anxiously, "What's wrong? Bill, David, answer quickly."

Agent Bill reported: "David was shot and seriously injured."

"Hit? From where?"

"I don't know. Let's retreat first." After Bill said that, he helped David quickly evacuate the scene.

"This is George, they are surrounding us from the outer side..." Then there was the sound of gunfire and bullets.

Binga and Cohen laughed at the embarrassed FBI.

“Those guys at the FBI were terrified.”

"Just like Rum said."

"If you want to plot against us, practice for 100,000 years before trying again."

The FBI agents were surrounded by members of the winery organization and were helpless. They looked for a chance to break out, but found that there were enemies in every direction.

"I'm George. They're watching me closely here. There's no way to escape."

"I'm Daniel. I'll go to support George and the others right away." Then there was another scream.

"I'm Cameron. What exactly happened?"

Judy tried to stay calm: "People outside were sniped one after another by them."

"I understand. Anyway, let's retreat first."

"Be careful."

Akai Shuichi frowned, realizing the seriousness of the matter: "Wait, Cameron."

Cameron and Mark got in the car and started the engine. As soon as the car started moving, they heard Shuichi Akai's instructions and stepped on the brakes.

At this moment, Gin caught Mark red-handed. He fired a shot at the door of the truck at the entrance of the parking lot. The bullet penetrated Mark's thigh and stayed inside the car.

Mark groaned in pain, and his face turned pale in an instant.

Seeing this, Cameron drove away.

Gin held the gun with both hands, his eyes grim: "The target fled to the southeast, don't let them get away, Cohen."

"Okay." Cohen immediately drove after him.

Mark endured the pain and took out gauze from his pocket to bandage the wound.

"Mark, tie it tighter." Cameron looked in the rearview mirror and saw the car organized by the winery chasing him closely. "Damn, these tough guys are catching up with us."

Cameron began to show off his driving skills, intending to get rid of the winery's car. He skillfully changed gears, accelerated, and made sharp turns, and the car sped along the road.

Kudo Yuki sat in Vermouth's car, her lips curled slightly, thinking: [Cameron, when you run to the designated location, Toru, it's time to act.]

Inside the Kudo family residence, Judy shouted into the microphone: "Cameron, Mark, answer me. Answer me quickly!" But no one responded.

At this time, the Kudo couple came to the door of the study.

"Well, we're back from buying ingredients."

"What happened?"

Conan handed the code in the phone to Kudo Yusaku and briefly told him what had happened.

Kudo Yusaku looked at the code and thought: "You want to use this meeting code to lure out the organization?"

James added: "Yeah, but they figured it out."

Judy grabbed her hair with one hand, unable to figure out the reason, "Why?"

Yusaku Kudo put one hand in his pocket and asked, "Who wrote the code this time?"

Conan replied, "It was written by Teacher Judy."

"Teacher?" Kudo Yusaku looked at Judy who was in distress. "Ms. Judy, you are called a teacher. Have you ever been a teacher in school before?"

Judy looked up, "Yeah, I was an English teacher at Teitan High School."

“You’ve never been a primary school teacher, have you?”

"No. But I have a friend who is a teacher in elementary school. Her name is Shibuya Natsuko."

"That teacher taught you a lot of things, right?"

"She taught me Japanese, including the Kanji and Hiragana characters."

"I see."

Conan grabbed his hair in annoyance, "Damn it, I would actually make such a mistake."

Toru Amuro frowned slightly and shifted his gaze from Conan to Yusaku Kudo, Judy and others.

"I'm afraid the code has been cracked by the winery organization. You see, judging from the current situation, the FBI's actions are completely under the control of the other party.

They knew the meeting place precisely and set up an ambush in advance. If the code had not been cracked, it would be hard to explain all this. Miss Judy, is it possible that some details were overlooked when the code was drawn up? "

Judy was puzzled. "Just because of the code I wrote? Did the trap set by our FBI be seen through by the winery organization?"

Yusaku Kudo explained: "I'm afraid that when Agent Judy wrote the code, she used the imperative Roman letters. This type of phonetic symbols focuses on the regularity of spelling, so it is often used in elementary school teaching. Your elementary school teacher friend should have taught you this."

"Yes, but what's wrong?"

Conan said, "Yes, it's Roman letters. If you use the imperative spelling, it's 'HU' written by Teacher Judy. But the people who wrote the code before used the plain text 'FU'.

The word Furujitsu-cho that appeared in the code last time was also spelled as 'F U R U I T O'. In other words, Kadezaki-cho should be spelled as 'K A D E F U', but you wrote it as 'K A D E H U'."

Judy's face turned a little disappointed, and she murmured in self-blame: "Why, why is it like this?"

James stroked his chin with one hand and thought, "Is it because of this that the organization discovered something was wrong and saw through this trap?"

"I'm sorry, it's my mistake."

"This is not just your fault." Akai Shuichi took over the conversation: "We didn't find any problems when we checked."

Yukiko's face was filled with worry. "But is it really okay? The agent who went as bait was Mr. Cameron, right? It seems he was shot."

Shuichi Akai looked at the display tracking screen on the desk, and the light spots on it kept moving.

"No, judging from the sound, the person who was shot should be Mark who was sitting in the passenger seat. Cameron's car is now heading south towards Kanagawa. He probably hasn't shaken off the pursuers yet."

He leaned closer to the microphone, "Hey, Cameron, are you ready to talk now?"

"Yeah, it's OK. But there's a car chasing me now, and I can't get rid of them easily."

"Were you shot?"

"The rifle bullet went through the right door and hit the driver's door. But it didn't affect driving. It was just that when the bullet went through the door, it injured Mark's thigh. He lost too much blood and must be bandaged as soon as possible."

"Then turn right at the next intersection. Then turn left and drive onto Otaru Road."

"But there are so many cars parked on the side of that road that it's actually hard to drive." Cameron paused after he finished speaking, then suddenly realized. "I see."

He turned the steering wheel left and drove onto the street, the tires making a screeching sound as they rubbed against the ground.

Cohen was caught off guard by this move, and he slapped the steering wheel hard. "Damn it, it's spinning around." He turned left and chased after him.

Cameron watched the scene passing by quickly outside the car window. After driving for a while, he finally found an empty parking space and drove straight in.

Cohen passed him by, muttering, "Disappeared? Where did he go?"

Binga watched Cohen anxiously but did not offer any help.

Cameron saw the cars passing by, and Mark took the opportunity to get out of the car and hide inside, using the cars as cover. He restarted the engine and ran back. "It seems that we have successfully shaken them off. I let Mark get off at Dazhun Road, please go and pick him up later."

Toru Amuro pressed the microphone and ordered his men to pick up FBI Agent Mark and send him to a nearby hospital.
