The Phantom Thief of Heart! But Conan.

"You said you went ashore to catch Shirley, but you didn't find her, but you captured Kumail?"

Gin was tidying up his long hair which was blown a little messy by the strong wind. As soon as he entered the submarine from the bridge, he heard this bad news.

He adjusted the brim of his hat and stared at the vodka in silence.

This is not only a joke, but if this kind of handle falls into the hands of others, it will be fine. But if it falls into the hands of Kumail, he can even imagine the face that guy will use to frame him.

Vodka lowered his head and said, "I'm so sorry. Something went wrong when Binga and I were handling it."

Gin glared at him coldly for a few times before saying, "You two can't just arrest someone for no reason just because you see someone with a similar appearance. Tell me the details."

Although it was outrageous to capture Shirley and bring back Kumail, it was not surprising that it happened to some colleagues in the organization.

The problem is that Vodka is actually the one in the organization who is more familiar with Kumail, although he can't compare to Bourbon, who spends the whole day with him. Because he is more resistant to each other, Vodka doesn't like dealing with Kumail.

With this resistance, Gin had reason to believe that this was unlikely to be a simple accident.

"Yes, we actually met Shirley in person." Vodka raised his head again and immediately described the entire mission process.

The reason for arresting the wrong person was a combination of coincidence and their carelessness, but ultimately, it cannot be denied that Kumail's appearance in one of the three rooms they were waiting to confirm was the major reason for this blunder.

At first glance, this incident is quite funny. It is indeed an accident that Kumail, who is playing Karasawa Akira, comes to the island. But when you think about it carefully, it is very strange that Miyano Shiho and Karasawa Akira appear in the same hotel, and Kumail is completely unaware of this.

Gin followed him to the control cabin and listened to the whole process. His face was extremely gloomy.

If what Vodka said is true, then the fact that Miyano Shiho appears here symbolizes a lot of things.

"Where's the Kumer?" Gin looked around and asked directly, "Send him over. I have something to ask."

He had to confirm some things from Kumail first.

Mizuno Reina, who was leaning against the wall in a daze, raised her head, looked at them strangely, and pointed in another direction.

"He's in the torpedo tube now." Mizunashi Rena's voice was filled with the familiarity of "don't blame me if something goes wrong," "Take that woman with him."

Gin's brows jumped violently, and he frowned all of a sudden: "What is he doing?"

"Run away." Rena Mizunoshi spread her hands.

"Huh?" Vodka's voice was a little distorted. "Why would he run away when Big Brother came? No, when did he learn how to operate the torpedo outlet?!"

"Are you stupid?" Rena Mizunashi spoke frankly. "You kidnapped him back here as Karasawa Akira, and he even met up with another hostage. If he wanted to continue using this identity, there's no way Naomi Argento would have noticed anything. If he didn't escape, how can you explain his safe return?"

This is a very reasonable development. Considering that the submarine has now surfaced to welcome Gin and the guards have changed, it is indeed a very appropriate time to escape.

At least in the eyes of the unsuspecting Naomi, this was definitely a thrilling escape.

"Of course I taught him how to operate it. He needs a way to get back. As for that female engineer... haven't the terms been agreed upon? Her parents are being watched by our people now, and Binga is still in there, so there are plenty of ways to keep an eye on her."

She spoke so confidently about selling out her teammates. Rena Mizunoshi had been an undercover agent for so long, but she had never experienced such a refreshing moment.

It is reasonable and impeccable. Tang Ze's imaginative thinking is used at this moment and the effect is really outstanding.

"The terms haven't been finalized yet. And what if that woman leaks our information..." Vodka's eyebrows twitched and he felt his cheeks stiffen.

He only did two things in total, and both of them were done right under their noses. Now he even told Gin about it openly...

Vodka felt that it would be difficult to get away with it this time. He might really be thrown into the base training ground by his elder brother to be punished to guard the gate.

"Isn't there still Kumail here?" Mizunashi Rena laughed, looking past Vodka and directly at Gin. "I don't think there's any need to go to such great lengths. Let Kumail contact her, and the matter would have been settled long ago, right?"

It would be a bit presumptuous for her to directly express this content, which reflects the changing power relations between rum and bourbon.

Before receiving a new assignment, she will definitely be a member of Gin's Action Team and will obey Gin's orders.

The way he openly belittled rum in front of gin, which clearly expressed that it did not want to take sides, and praised Kummel's personal ability was equivalent to making it clear that he was more optimistic about bourbon, which was almost the same as taking sides.

However, Rena Mizunashi was confident that Gin's thoughts must have changed, because although the boss did not say it explicitly, his attitude on this issue became increasingly ambiguous.

Sure enough, Gin just snorted, looking dismissive of her admiration, but didn't say anything else.

The Itakura Taku incident, the Curacao incident, and this incident...

Kumail could take over the unfinished parts given to Rum and finish them in an orderly manner. If he was the executor from the beginning, there might not be so much trouble.

He is a master at manipulating people's hearts, and he has the ability to bless, win over, suppress, bribe and surrender. In Kumail's eyes, these things are like manipulating chess pieces on a chessboard, and he can do whatever he wants.

"Where's Shirley's video? Bring it here for me to see." Gin glanced coldly at the lower deck where the noise was coming from. He was too lazy to continue paying attention to what was happening over there and reached out his hand to Vodka.

Vodka took out a tablet, pulled up the photo from Naomi's necklace, as well as the surveillance video that was later intercepted by Binga, and handed it to Gin.

His eyes lingered on the comparison result for a moment, then he scrolled to the video section and began to observe it carefully.

The photo of Miyano Shiho leaning on the railing and looking into the distance is just one frame. After playing it from the beginning, the meaning of this image is very different.

The girl in the photo had a stern face, with a half-dead look that was very familiar to Gin. She looked around vigilantly, then took out a device and collected something.

Just then, there seemed to be some movement outside the window. The girl alertly put away the things in her hands, grabbed the railing, and watched cautiously for a moment. After confirming that she had not been discovered, she decisively retreated back into the room.

The curtains were drawn again, and the video, which lasted less than a minute, ended.

"It's pretty much what I thought." Gin had expected this and his expression was indifferent.

"What?" Vodka was confused. "Brother, are you saying you know Shirley's purpose?"

"She did it on purpose." Gin said firmly, throwing the tablet back into Vodka's hands, "She's testing this 'Tang Ze Zhao' to see if he's really the real person."

It was expected that Shirley would go looking for Tang Zezhao as bait, which was also one of Kumail's purposes of maintaining this identity.

As a relative and disciple of Karasawa Ikawa, Shirley had no reason not to care about their only orphan, and with the death of her sister, Shirley only had this relative left.

This was the same reason Vermouth used when she ran to Beika Town, saying that she didn't believe Shirley would give up on Karasawa Akira easily, and that she would definitely stay near Kumer.

Although Vermouth's actions were eventually ended because she was discovered by Shuichi Akai while lurking, this conclusion has not been overturned.

After so much time had passed, Shirley must have noticed Kumail, and because of her understanding of the organization's style of operation, she must have maintained a cautious wait-and-see attitude and did not dare to get close easily.

If she is not careful, her life will be in danger. At such moments, the woman is always more cautious than imagined and will not act rashly.

"Intentional? Did she guess we'd use facial recognition to find her?" Vodka was a little incredulous. "Was this all her plan?"

"She's foolish and naive, but she's a smart person after all." Gin smiled maliciously. "Now, the Pacific Buoy's system has been hijacked by the Phantom Thieves, right?"

"Yes, yes, Cohen and his team were even attacked..."

"That's it. She, and the people behind her, want to use us to test Kumail's identity."

"Oh, I see." Mizunashi Rena made an expression of sudden enlightenment, "No wonder Kumail was captured without any resistance."

"The kidnapped hostage knew Shirley, so it wouldn't be difficult to verify Kumail's words and actions afterwards." Gin's voice was calm, and one could tell he was confident in his own judgment.

When Cohen and Chianti had the accident, he was still on the helicopter and could not receive the communication in the first time. But after so much time had passed, and Tangze directly retrieved the sonar data and mocked him, Gin knew what happened even though the news was delayed.

Combining the two, you can't blame Gin for having a rich imagination, everything is just a coincidence.

"You're just like me, Gin." Rena Mizunashi coughed and tried hard to recall the sad things. She even briefly recalled the scene of her father's sacrifice. Finally, she suppressed the smile that was about to emerge on her face.

When Tang Ze confidently said that Gin still wanted to thank him, she still had some doubts. The current situation was really difficult.

Should we praise him for his thorough understanding of Gin's mentality, or should we praise Gin for his strong logical ability to persuade himself?

"But it doesn't matter anymore." Gin concluded and looked back at the busy crew. "Where's Kumail? Has he been discharged yet?"

The operator, not wanting to delay, immediately pressed a button and operated the interface: "Let me confirm... um, the drainage work has been completed, and the torpedo tube is now empty."

"Yes. Prepare to use the ultimate measure. Abandon this system and let this shaky buoy sink to the black iron seabed with it."

----

"Puff—cough, cough, cough, cough..."

She suddenly stuck her head out of the water, not caring about the salty sea water splashing into her mouth with the waves. Naomi breathed in the air in big gulps, and it was impossible to tell how many tears were on her wet face.

The joy and fear of surviving the disaster made her heart beat very fast, and she couldn't tell whether she was crying.

In just 24 hours, she went from heaven to hell, and now she is back to the world again. However, her emotions did not break down. This is because she has received security training and her mentality is stable.

After breathing for a while, she turned her head and looked at the other head that swam up with her, trying hard to smile.

"You survived. Ugh, you're really amazing, Tang Zejun..."

What she was talking about was not only the fact that he took her away quietly from the torpedo mouth like a secret agent, but also his amazing physical strength and athletic ability.

Even though the submarine is now in a surfaced state, the drain outlet is about five to ten meters underwater.

In order to avoid being discovered and tracked by the people on the submarine, they cannot surface directly on the sea surface near the submarine, but have to remain submerged and swim in the water for a while.

Even Naomi, who thought she was a good swimmer, was afraid of this, but Tang Ze took two oxygen cylinders that were left on the lower deck.

Those were metal oxygen cylinders and breathing apparatus, and they were quite heavy. Tang Ze not only brought them with him, but also actually lifted them up and dragged her along, swimming underwater for about a hundred meters and escaping just like that.

This explosive power and load-bearing capacity are truly at the level of professional athletes...

Fortunately I met him, otherwise it would have been very difficult to survive this time.

Tang Ze wiped the sea water off his face and just smiled in response to her admiration.

Saving people was just a matter of convenience. The biggest purpose of this kidnapping for him was to provide a reasonable alibi.

And now, it's time for it to come into play.

"We're very close to the buoy. Take this first..." Tang Ze stuffed a cell phone into Naomi's hand without hesitation, "Call for help as soon as possible, and I'll find you a floating object..."

Naomi, confused, pressed the power button of her phone several times and was shocked: "This phone, it's still working?!"

This is seawater! Several meters deep! Is this waterproofing military-grade?

"After all, it's a phone that can turn on even after falling from the 21st floor, can break open skulls, and is bulletproof. All the detectives who have used it say it's good."

"what?"

"Nothing. There's no signal here. Contact rescue as soon as possible. There should be a police boat searching nearby. You will be rescued soon."

Naomi nodded, floated in the water for a while, took the inflated sealed bag handed to her by Tang Ze, and struggled to switch to the dial-up interface. Only then did she realize that there was something wrong with the subject of Tang Ze's words.

"Wait a minute, I'll call the emergency number, what about you?"

"Me?" Tang Ze smiled and put on his goggles and oxygen mask again. "Didn't you hear what that woman said? I have to go and inform the people in the buoy that we need to evacuate quickly."

Binga's true identity has almost been revealed, so it's time to move on to the second stage, right?
