The sixth man of Conan's police academy

January 01, Water Day.

Another year passed in a flash, and Sasashima Ritsu ushered in his 598 days in the organization.

Time really flies, I didn't expect to spend my second birthday in the organization.However, unlike the first one, the birthday this time was spent at the research institute, because the two model workers, Gin and Vodka, rushed to perform tasks overseas on New Year's Eve.

Holding the fried chicken bento bought at the convenience store, Ritsu Sasashima sat in his car and ate it. I don’t know when his consumption records in the convenience store have been increasing...There are people like gin and wine near them suspected.

He doesn't want to be a model worker at all.

Hastily solving the problem of food and clothing, Ritsu Sasashima did not receive the task of the action team today, but he received instructions from the Police Agency—due to providing a lot of information about the organization during the period of lurking in the organization, he has already Unconventional promotion to police, set up [Shadow] group.

Looking at the time displayed on the watch, there is still half an hour before the agreed [-] o'clock, enough time to arrive at the AEON supermarket in Ikebukuro a few kilometers away.

Putting the finished bento box into a plastic bag and throwing it on the passenger seat, Ritsu Sasashima drove his car to the underground garage of the AEON shopping supermarket in Ikebukuro. After making sure that he did not have any monitoring equipment or transmitters , put on a black peaked cap and tightly wrap a long black windbreaker, and proceed carefully to the second floor of the shopping supermarket.

[There are still two days to go undercover for [-] days, which is a surprise gift for you in advance. ]

Thinking of the words at the end of that email, Sasashima Ritsu was a little confused about the meaning of it. For him, the surprise gift was probably the ability to break away from the organization.And after learning from Hagiwara that Furutani had also disappeared, he asked the police department about whether Furutani had lurked into the organization, but was ignored.

This

Ritsu Sasashima was very puzzled, and even more puzzled was——

He did not encounter Jiang Gu Ling in the organization, so the possibility of him entering the action group or scientific research group was ruled out.And according to Jiang Gu's ability, if he enters the organization, he will definitely get a code name within a year. From time to time, he will use the organization's internal computer to inquire about the person who has newly obtained a code name. Miyano Shiho.

At the end of last year, Miyano Shiho successfully obtained the code name "Sherry", which is sherry wine.

So where exactly is Jianggu Zero?Could it be that he was secretly trained by the police department and waited for the right time before entering the organization?

While Ritsu Sasashima was thinking, he had unknowingly come to the entrance of the supermarket.

He put away his thoughts, it is better not to think about these things at this stage, it is better to communicate and exchange the recently obtained information with his assistant first...and set a reasonable set of communication codes.

Instead of going directly to the second floor, Ritsu Sasashima took the escalator to the area on the second floor of the supermarket after wandering around on the first floor for a while until almost the hour.

Holding two bottles of Calpis in his hand, Sasashima Ritsu stood in the brewing food area, took Sasashima's chocolate-flavored oatmeal from the mail, and saw a man standing on the opposite side of the shelf picking out the goods.

It was indeed a surprise, and even made Ritsu Sasashima a little unexpected.

Zhu Fu Jingguang, who was pushing the shopping cart to choose food with a smile on his face, disappeared when he saw the person standing opposite him. He seemed a little surprised, and he probably didn't expect that the person he needed assistance... would be Ritsu Sasashima.

"..."

Ritsu Sasashima was the first to react. His slender fingers quickly tapped the chocolate cereal in his arms, and his eyes fell on other things that needed to be purchased, conveying information.

Morse code, the little secret code they like to use the most.

After Zhu Fu Jingguang reacted, he pushed the shopping cart and left. He had already answered the message Sasashima wanted to convey, and tried to restrain the corners of his mouth from rising and walked towards the cold area.

Buying something symbolically, returning to the parking lot and sitting in the driver's seat, Ritsu Sasashima drove to the open-air parking lot near the Kubado Chuo Bridge, and walked to the nearby lakeside.

He supported the railing with his hands and sat down on his buttocks. Compared with when he was 14 years old, he was much more relaxed, and the long legs that had nowhere to rest could only curl up if they wanted not to touch the ground.

He turned his head and looked at the calm lake. There has also been a change here, and it has become more prosperous.

Ritsu Sasashima did not expect that Zhu Fu Jingguang would go to the police station. He chose to enter the organization as an undercover agent in exchange for him staying away from the organization. Why did this guy come to touch him?Is it an arrangement of fate? Some things cannot be avoided and will be carried out in other ways.

Zhu Fu Jingguang was holding a plastic bag in his hand, which was still the same thing as before, beer and shredded squid.But unlike back then, he did not run down the stairs in a hurry, but approached him slowly step by step.

"beard."

Zhu Fu Jingguang paused, stretched out his hand to touch the mustache on his chin, and asked with a smile, "Is it unexpected and suitable?"

"Well, it looks quite mature and stable."

There are many things I want to chat with him, but time does not allow, and meeting is inherently risky.

Ritsu Sasashima took out the envelope he had prepared a long time ago and handed it to Jing Guang, saying, "To make a long story short, there is a code for the connection written on it. Remember to burn it after remembering it. Don't tell anyone."

"Yes, I know."

"The recently added code-named member is Miyano Shiho of the scientific research group, code-named Sherry, and the progress of drug research has recently progressed to the stage of molecular modeling. There is also the serial murder case that occurred in Mie County in mid-November last year. Executed by Glenfiddich, a code member within, the three men executed were all low-level members of the organization."

"Do you know why you were executed by the organization?"

"The three of them did a bank robbery at the beginning of the month. The organization did not arrange for them to perform such a task. Because of unauthorized actions, one of them left fingerprints and was treated as a traitor by the organization."

Zhu Fu Jingguang nodded, he glanced at Sasashima's left hand, the index finger under the black leather glove had a slightly raised mark, and he could tell that he was wearing the ring properly.

"Anything else besides that?"

"No, I should go back to the research institute."

The longer the contact time, the greater the risk. Ritsu Sasashima walked towards the parking lot. Just like back then, their directions were still opposite.

"Ah Lu..."

Unable to stop in his footsteps, Ritsu Sasashima squeezed his lips tightly, and said with a wry smile: "Toru Nanase, that's my current name."

"No matter what, be safe and sound, okay?"

No answer because it's hard to guarantee.

Ritsu Sasashima turned around and looked at Jing Guang standing there with a frowning brow full of worry, clenched his right fist and tapped lightly on his left chest twice, telling him with this action...that he will be fine.

Without continuing to look at his back, Zhu Fu Jingguang walked towards the railing, imitating his posture and sitting on the railing, which is a bit cold in winter.But the piece he touched was still warm from the glove.

Ari... You and Zero need to be fine, and I will do my best to help you.
