Conan wants to lie down but won't let him
Chapter 166 Calvados's Urgent Message
In addition, if Rum loses the team that he has gathered over the past seventeen years, it is hard to say whether Rum will have another seventeen years to recruit soldiers.
But this time, Rum was destined to fall into the trap of the BOSS again. The Dragon Group under Fujiwara Hirokazu was not something that Rum's unconventional team could challenge.
Rum's overall strength was still far behind Gin's original Tokyo district. Furthermore, Gin had Vermouth, Bourbon, and other powerful codename members under him.
They were all beaten into this state by the Dragon Group and were forced into a dormant state. Rum thought it was because of Gin's arrogance.
In fact, it is not the case. It is just that they were crushed in terms of hard power. When Rum suffered, he must have regretted it!
On the other side, the boss had already assigned a task to Vermouth while Rum was arranging people to come over.
Recently, Mary Akai of the British intelligence agency has been targeting the organization to investigate her missing husband Tsutomu Akai.
Since Mary Akai is a special agent, she has extraordinary abilities and ordinary assassination methods are ineffective against her.
Moreover, Britain is located in Europe and has always been Rum's territory, so it is not easy for the BOSS to intervene. Moreover, Mary Akai's identity is inextricably linked to Rum's failed mission seventeen years ago.
Because the boss was afraid of touching Rum's nerves over the years, he has kept the matter on hold and has not dealt with it. Now there is finally an opportunity to intervene in Europe.
While Rum is setting his sights on Japan, the boss assigned this task to Vermouth to eliminate this unstable bomb first.
Everyone knows what happened next. Vermouth took advantage of her own strengths, disguised herself as Akai Tsuchimura, and led Akai Mari to the bridge.
Through mouth-to-mouth kissing, Akai Mary was force-fed the drug A, and then Akai Mary fell from the bridge and shrank back to the size of a junior high school student.
That is the sister who appeared next to Conan later, lived in the hotel all year round, and hid behind Sera Masumi!
Of course, all this happened later. At the moment, Vermouth had just received a phone call from the boss, informing her of the mission.
From this mission of the BOSS, Vermouth obtained new information, that is, a deal should be reached between the BOSS and Rum.
That's why she had the opportunity to go to England to carry out the mission. In this way, Vermouth was one step closer to restoring the puzzle of what happened.
It seems that Rum should also get the opportunity to come to Tokyo. Combined with the order given by Gin before, this becomes interesting!
The boss should be planning to let Rum and the other organization have a fight first to consume the strength of both sides and then collect more information.
Then, countermeasures are taken through the remaining peripheral members. When the opponent continues to track those peripheral members, they hide in the dark and fight back using the opponent's methods.
I have to say that Vermouth’s abilities are pretty good, both her analytical and operational abilities are pretty good!
If Akai Mary hadn't been lucky enough to shrink like Conan and the others, Vermouth's actions would undoubtedly have been successful. Another example is the disguise of a highway demon killer in New York to lure Akai Shuichi into an ambush.
If he had not underestimated Shuichi Akai's strength and overestimated his own abilities, he would still have had a great chance of success if their strength were equal.
Of course, when faced with a BUG-like existence like Fujiwara Hiroshi, Vermouth had no way out and could only give up resistance.
Well, since she was going on a long trip to the UK in the near future, when Vermouth met "Calvados", she told him about her mission.
She didn't want Fujiwara Hiroshi to misunderstand that she was planning to run away again, and then Fujiwara Hiroshi would chase her to the UK and interfere with the mission, so it was equivalent to reporting in advance.
What Vermouth didn't know was that the person in front of him wasn't Fujiwara Hiroshi at all, but Calvados. Fujiwara Hiroshi didn't understand what Vermouth had said about the organization, and just treated it as a normal mission.
But the real Calvados understood that as a member of the BOSS camp, it was incredible that Vermouth was now arranged to carry out a mission in Europe.
This situation was very important, and Calvados dared not hide it. He immediately contacted Long Yi and asked to meet with Fujiwara Hiroshi in person to report the information.
When Long Yi heard what Calvados said, he knew the situation was very important and urgent. He did not dare to hesitate and reported the situation directly to Fujiwara Hiroshi.
At this time, Fujiwara Hiroshi had just finished his happy gathering with Katsuragi Sachiko and was about to return to the apartment, but he received an urgent call from Ryuichi and turned around to go to Calvados.
"What's the emergency? Calvados! You're contacting me urgently so late, it must be something important, right?" Fujiwara Hiroshi appeared in Calvados' room with Calvados's face.
"It's like this..." Calvados roughly explained the current situation. As Calvados explained, Fujiwara Hiroshi also learned some information that he didn't know before.
It turns out that Rum and BOSS are divided into two camps. Rum was expelled by BOSS to Europe to open up new land, and Europe is equivalent to Rum's independent territory.
These information kept gathering and circling in Fujiwara Hiroshi's mind, and Fujiwara Hiroshi paced in Calvados' room and thought.
From the order Calvados received, to Vermouth being allowed to enter Britain to carry out the mission and then include his own Dragon Group in it.
In addition, the original peripheral members of the Tokyo area were arranged to go into silent dormancy, not to participate in any tasks, and no horizontal contacts were allowed.
After learning about the true relationship between the boss and Rum, Fujiwara Hiroshi put himself in the boss's perspective and considered how to maximize the benefits and break the deadlock.
Fujiwara Hiroshi's thoughts gradually became clear. This is the charm of information asymmetry. No wonder it is said that intelligence war is the real battle.
The reason why Fujiwara Hiroshi and the Dragon Group have been able to win every battle against the organization so far is because they have information asymmetry with the Black Organization.
Fujiwara Hiroshi and the Dragon Group only took lightning-fast action after knowing a lot of detailed information about the Black Organization, while the Black Organization knew nothing about them and could only passively take the beating.
Fujiwara Hiroshi understood everything when he put himself in the boss's perspective. The boss is worthy of being the boss. He is really capable to be at the helm of the Black Organization for so many years.
What a brilliant plan that kills three birds with one stone! Even without knowing who the opponent is, Gin's description can be used to infer the Dragon Group's tactics and quickly arrange a counterattack.
Then, taking advantage of Rum's eagerness to return to Tokyo, he let Rum be the first to take action and engage in a fierce battle with the Dragon Group. At the same time, he could also consume the Dragon Group's strength and collect more information.
The groundwork laid for the subsequent reactivation of the remaining peripheral members is truly one link after another.
Finally, Vermouth was arranged to enter Rum's territory to carry out a mission. For the time being, Fujiwara Hiroshi could not imagine what the mission would be, but it seemed that the British side had little to do with Fujiwara Hiroshi.
Fujiwara Hiroshi's current sphere of influence is basically still within Japan. No matter what his boss in the UK arranges for Vermouth to do, there is no need for Fujiwara Hiroshi to pay attention.
On the surface, it was a fair deal with Rum. Rum came to Tokyo to take over Gin's mission, and Vermouth went to the UK to carry out the mission.
This is a reciprocal exchange. In fact, Rum is at a disadvantage! Vermouth is really going to carry out the mission, and Rum is arranged to send heads to brush experience.
Moreover, in this way, Rum's strength will be greatly reduced. Fujiwara Hiroshi will not be polite to Rum. Fujiwara Hiroshi learned the next plan of the Black Organization.
Then, as long as Rum comes over, the Dragon Group will definitely give him a gift that he will never forget. However, according to Fujiwara Hiroshi's estimation, if Rum fails this time, he will probably have no chance to turn around and return to Japan!
Of course, being able to analyze so much has basically sorted out the thread of things. Of course, Fujiwara Hiroshi couldn't deduce or analyze the boss's arrangement of Bourbon to supervise Rum based on the current information.
However, this information is more than enough. Fujiwara Hiroshi plans to go back and arrange the subsequent tasks with Long Yi.
"Well done, Calvados! I'll send you a bonus tomorrow as a reward. This information of yours will be very useful to me!"
Fujiwara Hiroshi did not express his analysis in front of Calvados, but he also expressed his reward for Calvados in a timely manner.
"Thank you, thank you for your concern!" Calvados vaguely felt that this information was very important, but he did not expect Fujiwara Hiroshi to attach so much importance to it.
"You can tell me if you have any needs, and I will satisfy you if possible!" Fujiwara Hiroshi also gave Calvados a sweet treat, after all, he wanted to let him know that his efforts would be rewarded.
Fujiwara Hiroshi understands this very well. He knows that many people are not just after money, so in addition to money, other rewards are also important.
"Really? I want to learn fighting skills from you!" Calvados stated his needs. He was not sure whether Fujiwara Hiroshi would agree.
Calvados's long-range sniping skills were chosen by the Black Organization as a specialty and he became a codenamed member. He has a certain talent and he can continue to strengthen his training.
Close-range pistol and melee combat have always been his weaknesses, and this is the area he most desires to improve.
His accuracy in pistol shooting has a foundation in sniper skills, which is easy to practice. It has improved significantly in recent times, and he himself can feel it clearly.
Originally, his pistol shooting skills were at most similar to Cohen and the others, but now Calvados himself could feel that he had left them far behind.
However, his talent in fighting is mediocre. The reason why he is no match for Vermouth is because he is too far behind Vermouth in close combat.
Once Calvados is approached by Vermouth, he will not have even the slightest ability to resist, so Calvados is eager to improve in this aspect.
"Okay, in the next few days, please come to this guild hall at night. I will teach you some practical moves. As long as you can master these moves, it will be difficult for ordinary people to defeat you.
At the same time, if you practice these moves well, they will greatly improve your dodging ability. When you see a bullet coming in advance, you can quickly dodge it by dodging, provided you sense or see the bullet coming towards you!
Fujiwara Hiroshi thought about it and agreed. Since this was Calvados's need, if he satisfied it, he would work harder to convey useful information to him in the future.
The next day, Fujiwara Hiroshi did not go to the Mori Detective Agency, but came to the Dragon Group's base camp, Yueying Island, and summoned Ryuichi and other core members to issue orders for the next stage of the mission.
"Thank you all for your hard work during this period!" Fujiwara Hiroshi came up and first expressed his affirmation to Long Yi and the others. The work has been done, and timely recognition is also a form of encouragement.
"Long Yi, remember to contact the steward promptly to distribute everyone's rewards. Also, if there's anything other than money that requires the organization's help, you can bring it up.
I will satisfy you according to the reward of your mission and the difficulty of your requirements. Your hard work will also be rewarded accordingly!"
"Thank you, Dragon Head! We will swear allegiance to you until death and firmly follow your footsteps!" everyone said in unison.
As expected, everyone's spirits instantly soared upon hearing that there were rewards to be redeemed. Fujiwara Hiroshi saw that the atmosphere was almost heated up and began a new round of arrangements.
"Then for our next phase of mission, I hope everyone can fulfill their respective responsibilities and work together to complete the Dragon Team's assigned tasks!"
"Don't worry, Dragon Head, we'll accomplish our mission!" the crowd responded again. With such a neat and orderly crowd, someone who didn't know better would have thought they'd entered a pyramid scheme. They were all so busy and rambling.
"According to the latest intelligence I've obtained, the Black Organization will likely focus on targeting us in the next phase of their operations. This time, we've almost wiped out all of their peripheral members in the Tokyo area.
They also truly felt the pain, although to them, one peripheral member was nothing and dispensable, and ten members might not have any impact.
But one hundred, one thousand peripheral members, and even tens of thousands of people in the entire Tokyo area, really hit them in the heart.
According to reliable information I have received, they currently only know that there is an opponent like our organization, and they know nothing about the name and structure of our organization.
Of course, the less they know, the better it is for us. We can keep hiding it as long as we can. Sooner or later, they will find out.
These aspects are the fruits of our stage-by-stage victory in the previous phase, and are also part of the intelligence I have currently discovered!
I hope you won't be carried away by this short-lived victory. Our opponents are not as easy to deal with as we thought. Otherwise, they wouldn't have been entrenched in Japan for so many years without being eradicated by the Japanese police."
Fujiwara Hiroshi paused for a moment here. What he was talking about was still the general situation of the previous period. The next news would be the big news, so he paused here intentionally.
