Nagai Hikaru's Ke Xuexing

Conan and Akai Shuichi reasoned and analyzed for a long time in the toilet. Finally, Akai Shuichi said: "When all impossibilities are eliminated, the remaining one, no matter how unbelievable it is, is the truth of the fact."

Conan continued with some difficulty: "The person who killed the public security officer... was Hondou Eisuke."

"Yes." After walking around the toilet for many times, Shuichi Akai stood outside the toilet, took out a cigarette, lit it, and smoked it slowly, "But there is no evidence, no witnesses... This is just our inference."

"Xiaoguang..."

"Your sister Xiao Guang... is not simple." Akai Shuuichi held the cigarette between two fingers and exhaled the smoke gently, "She should know everything, but she covered it up."

"Huh... Xiaoguang is like this, a little... emotional." Conan let out a long breath and blew away some of the white smoke that was floating in front of him.

"But this incident allows the police to take Keel to the police station legitimately. If they have the ability, they might be able to pry out some information."

Conan didn't say anything. His sense of justice made him very uncomfortable, but he understood that unless Gil himself said that he saw Hondou Eisuke kill someone with his own eyes, or Hondou Eisuke himself admitted it, he could not be convicted.

Moreover, without physical evidence, even if a confession is successfully induced, the person may change his statement at any time.

"Eisuke... doesn't seem like the type to kill people." Conan still didn't want to believe it.

"Unless there is a third person who appears, kills people, and disappears, and his route completely overlaps with Hondou Eisuke's." Akai Shuichi flicked the ash from his cigarette, "And I have always doubted the origins of this child."

"what?"

"The timing of this child's arrival is such a coincidence." Akai Shuichi looked up at the completely dark sky. There were no stars in the Tokyo night. A somewhat lonely crescent moon hung in the sky, and the weather was a little chilly.

"You mean, this coincidence was planned long ago?" Conan looked up.

"This kid showed up just when we were investigating Cointreau, just when we were suspecting Hikaru Nagai."

"Is it to cover up Xiaoguang's identity?"

"No, how about thinking about it in reverse? If we later find out through some identification that this child is really Rena Mizunashi's younger brother, then we will be more suspicious of the identities of Hikaru Nagai and Kimito." Akai Shuichi was almost finished with his cigarette.

"Ah?" Conan understood, but he thought it was possible to bury it so deep?

"Always be cautious towards the organization." Akai Shuichi put out his cigarette and exhaled the last puff of smoke.

.

When Nagai Mitsuru returned to the villa, Gin was already sitting in his old seat on the sofa in the living room, smoking.

Sitting sideways on his lap, Nagai Hikaru asked with a smile, "Brother Zhen, are you waiting for me to come home?"

"Why was Kiel taken away by the police?" Gin asked as he took the cigarette out of his mouth.

"She witnessed a murder." Nagai Hikaru approached Gin and said happily, "She witnessed her brother killing the police. Do you think she will hand her brother over to the police in the end?"

"Is there something wrong with her?" Gin was very keenly aware of Nagai Hikaru's bad taste.

"She is a CIA agent who gained the trust of the organization by killing her own father." Nagai Mitsuha hugged Gin's neck and said with a smile, "Do you think she will use the same method to sacrifice her brother to gain the trust of the police and the FBI now?"

Gin raised the corner of his mouth and flicked the ash of his cigarette with a smile: "Well done, but is your source of information reliable?"

"Brother Zhen, I have more interesting information. After all the code members changed their phones recently, a junior staff member was wandering around with a memory card containing the list of our organization's undercover agents."

"Who?" Gin's eyes narrowed.

"I will get the memory card. However, a traitor on the periphery was able to get the list of our undercover agents. Rum, the head of the intelligence team, is very incompetent."

"This alone is not enough to bring him down."

"It's okay. I have you, don't I? Brother Jin." Nagai Hikaru placed his other hand on Gin's chest, feeling his heartbeat. "I'm going to the intelligence team. If I remember correctly, Rum has been asking you to transfer to another position, asking me to work under him."

"What do you want to do?"

"I want to be the leader of the intelligence team. Rum is old and it's time for him to retire." Nagai Hikaru leaned close to Gin's face, "Then, leader of the operations team, do you agree?"

Gin put his arm around Nagai Hikaru's waist, took a puff of the cigarette in his hand, and blew it onto Nagai Hikaru's face: "I agree, but whether you can replace him or not will ultimately depend on the person above."

Nagai Hikaru narrowed his eyes: "He will agree. The organization always prefers young people, doesn't it?"

Gin threw away the cigarette butt in his hand, took out his mobile phone, clicked a few buttons, and replied to Rum's private message in the APP.

"Your contact information has been given to Rum. He should ask you out for a chat in a few days. As for whether we can meet, it depends on his courage."

"This is a sincere gesture to invite me to the intelligence team. I believe he will come to see me in person." Nagai Mitsuru smiled and swiped the screen of the mobile phone in Gin's hand to close the wine glass APP.

.

Hondou Eisuke returned to school the next day, but Mizunashi Rena was not released by the police until five days later. The reason given to the TV station was that they were protecting the witness because they were afraid of retaliation from the murderer.

Rena Mizunashi must have reached some kind of agreement with the public security, but the organization has been silent about her, and there is nothing she can do.

The police promised not to follow or monitor her anymore, but she needed to report to them before leaving Tokyo.

Hondou Eisuke is still the same. Although he has good grades, he is still reckless. He has moved to Mizunashi Rena's apartment and lives with her.

Winter vacation is coming soon.

Nagai Mitsuru found time to find Okakura Masaaki and took the SD card from his amulet the day before he was targeted by the serial killer. Then he tied him to a car seat at the edge of a wooded area in the suburbs and shot and blew up the fuel tank of his car after walking away.

After confirming that the flames from the explosion had engulfed the entire black car, Mitsuru Nagai left with the SD card.

.

Rum finally contacted Hikaru Nagai.

In a Japanese restaurant at night, a bald middle-aged man wearing a left eye patch and a sports suit sat down in front of Nagai Hikaru: "Hello, Bordeaux, although this is our first meeting, I have a good relationship with Cointreau, so I can be considered half of your elder."

Nagai Hikaru propped his chin up with the back of his hand. His burgundy nails were inlaid with diamonds and lace, shining brightly under the dim light. "Oh, you're acting like a senior to me? Do you know what happened to the last code member who acted like a senior to me?"

"No, I'm not trying to make you obey me. I just want to tell you that Cointreau and I have been friends for many years. You'll feel much more comfortable here than with Gin. At least, here, you can leave Tokyo at will, and..." Rum glanced at Nagai Hikaru's right earring obscurely, "I will give you enough freedom."

"Oh? Are you talking about the starting salary?" Nagai Mitsuru blew on his fingertips. "That would be more sincere. Brother Zhen directly used money to get me here."

"But he still agreed for you to come to my place, didn't he?" Rum took a sip of barley tea and said with a smile, "I thought he would want to hide you forever."

"I came here on my own because I think you're not capable enough." Nagai Hikaru flipped his fingers and pulled out an SD card from somewhere, flipping it between his fingers. "The organization's undercover list was stolen by an outside member, and he turned it into an SD card and carried it with him. How ridiculous."

"That's fake." Rum smiled and took a sip of the barley tea on the table.

"Eh?" The SD card between Nagai Hikaru's fingers stopped spinning, flipped twice and disappeared from between his fingers. He became interested, put his elbows on the table, crossed his hands and supported his chin, "Is this fake?"

"It's fake. I just want to use this as an excuse to transfer Ireland to Japan."

"Tell me in detail." The smile on Nagai Hikaru's face became more sincere.

"He is a die-hard fan of the boss. Of course, it's not that loyalty is bad, but he is a bit of a hindrance. Jundu also thinks he is troublesome."

"You are so merciful as to help him take over the trouble?"

"I also have selfish motives. His adoptive father Pisco was killed by Gin, so he will definitely cause trouble for Gin when he comes back." Rum gently turned the teacup in his hand. "You should understand that my relationship with Gin is not very good since you are by Gin's side."

"Oh, you told me directly? Aren't you afraid that I will tell Gin?"

"Hahaha, I believe Cointreau's kid knows what he wants."

"I kind of like you." Nagai Mitsuru raised one hand, spun it, and used his fingertips to flip out a black chip from the gambling table, placed it on the table, and pushed it towards Rum, "But if you want me to do something for you, you have to give me more."

"You are not my subordinate. We are equal partners." Rum gently pushed the chip back. "I will not assign you any tasks, and you can act freely throughout Japan. You only need to have an identity as an intelligence team."

Nagai Hikaru pressed his finger on the other side of the chip to stop Rum from pushing it over: "You want to use my status to get benefits from Cointreau, but you don't want to give me some power to try. I won't go to this gambling table."

"I'll give you a list of Tokyo members. They will all listen to your orders, including Bourbon." Seeing that Nagai Mitsuru was wavering, Rum pushed the chips to him again, "And the Tokyo mission boss will come directly to you. I won't interfere anymore."

"Oh, this transfer of rights is indeed very sincere. Is Bourbon the only code-named member?"

"Originally, Vermouth could have cooperated with you, but unfortunately you killed her." Rum smiled, "Do you know how much more difficult my intelligence work has become without her disguise skills?"

Nagai Hikaru curled his lips and said, "If the loss of a makeup artist has such a big impact on you, then you should really reflect on what kind of rubbish your subordinates are."

In the end, Rum ceded half of Kanto, including Tokyo, Chiba, Saitama and Kanagawa.

And Nagai Mitsuru will ask Jundu to increase the funding given to his intelligence group by 15%.

After the argument, both sides left the Japanese restaurant.

After leaving the house, Nagai Mitsuru did not go directly to the parking lot, but turned to an alley next to it. There were short two-story houses on both sides. The street lights were not very bright and there were basically no passers-by.

Under a street lamp, a middle-aged man with short white hair, wearing a half-open black casual suit, a white shirt underneath, with the top few buttons unbuttoned, was leaning against the wall next to him, listening to something with a headset on.

When he saw Nagai Hikaru coming, he took off his earphone and smiled at him, "Nice to meet you, Hikaru."
