Conan: I'm Really Not the Manipulator

"...He won't die." Witt said, and then added: "As long as you, the stain, die honestly."

Lyudmila's expression became particularly weird at that moment, like sadness, anger, reluctance, or - someone who didn't know who was laughing at her.

She glanced at Witte, picked up a pill from the pill box, and looked at her son again.

Those light brown eyes were immersed in the water. She smiled, moved her mouth slightly, and said something to him.

"Mom, don't eat it!!"

Artemis begged heartbreakingly.

"Don't eat it! Please!! Don't eat it!!!"

"Mother!!"

Lyudmila took the medicine.

……

Artemis cried over her mother's body.

Five people came, two of whom were killed by Ludmila. Of the remaining three, one had a broken shoulder and one had a ruptured spleen. Only Witte was relatively intact.

He looked at the boy lying on his mother's body, who might have whispered something to her before she died, and then turned to look at the two companions beside him who barely stood up.

"Is the bomb arranged?"

"Okay." The man whose spleen was beaten so badly that his teeth were stained red with blood, "Just take him back for business now. I've had enough of the weather here."

Artemis trembled and stopped crying.

He thought of Anatoly, who was still in the hospital.

These people did not have the specific circumstances of their family, and they may not have known about his brother's existence.

Artemis had heard from her mother about the specific time when she returned to Russia. Based on their birth, she was only two months pregnant at that time and could not detect that she was pregnant with twins.

Lyudmila pays attention to privacy. After Anatoly was hospitalized, another set of towels and toothbrushes were put away at home. They did not get along with the neighbors much and there were no photos taken at home. The only one who knew that their family had two children was Sofia, who went to visit out of town a month ago. My daughter is no longer nearby.

So as long as he doesn't say anything, my brother is safe——

"Wait a moment."

Witte spoke to stop them.

"There's one more. There's another kid in the house."

Artemis fell into an ice cave.

He turned his head and felt that every pore in his body was immersed in ice water, and his breath was cold. He saw what was in Witte's hand.

They are two identical schoolbags.

"To save trouble, I may buy the same clothes, but there is no need to buy two identical bags. I saw them going to the hospital when I was following them..."

Artemis gradually stopped hearing Witte's voice.

He looked at everything in front of him, and the peace in the past had long since turned into chaos.

There were corpses and blood stains on the ground, and the bottle of sunflowers that he had carefully cared for also fell on the ground. The branches and buds had been stepped on by someone unknown, and were crushed into dust and mud, rotting all over the ground, completely lifeless.

His home is gone.

I originally wanted to write about Scotland and Gin, but I couldn’t manage a few hundred words, so I divided it into a new chapter...

The weekend is over and it is expected to be on the shelves on Monday_(:з」∠)_

Chapter 167 Anicet and Anis

Lyudmila.

Originally a bartender, he joined the organization because of his outstanding skills. He was given the codename "Rattlesnake Cocktail" because of his outstanding performance in the task, and served as Goldwasser's bodyguard.

During that time, Goldwasser fell deeply in love with this woman, who was several years older than him. But one day more than twenty years ago, her whereabouts suddenly disappeared.

After investigation, it was discovered that she was no ordinary bartender, but a spy who had infiltrated the United States.

An agent from the KGB.

She joined the bar as a bartender because the bar was very close to an important base, and some soldiers and even officers would go there to drink. She spent a long time there to collect military intelligence.

Goldwasser felt he had been cheated and kept looking for her. One day ten years later, he finally got some clues and asked several of his men to go to Moscow...

——This is the last piece of information sent back by the former police undercover agent Wheat Whiskey (Witt) who died in the line of duty.

Zhu Fu Jingguang frowned as he looked at the information.

Witt was originally active in Japan, but went to the United States after being spotted by Goldwasser.

He had heard rumors in the organization that Goldwasser had a special background and was related to BOSS's family, so he had been working hard to become his confidant in order to get more information.

When Witte went to the United States, Lyudmila had already left, leaving only her "great achievements" in the organization. She never showed mercy during her mission, and was more ruthless than most members. She was never suspected of being an undercover agent.

——Of course, she is not an undercover agent, but a spy. Based on the relationship between the two countries at that time, the ten organizations combined could not compare to each other. Wreaking havoc in the United States was a job that was very suitable for her expertise.

The police have no idea how well Witt completed his mission, how the organization dealt with the traitor, what happened during the treatment, or what Goldwasser's attitude was afterward.

Because after passing this information back to the police, Witte completely lost contact. Until one day four years later, they suddenly received news of his death.

"Rattlesnake cocktail... Anicet..."

Zhu Fu Jingguang whispered two code names.

The name of the Rattlesnake cocktail comes from the American "Rattlesnake Missile". It has a spicy taste and is made from whiskey and ouzo.

In the information sent back by Witte, there was no other mention of Lyudmila, not even a photo... Aniset was in her twenties, and her age and race matched. Could it be her child?

The blood of a high-level criminal organization and a spy from the most powerful intelligence agency ever...

...Really, will it be completely black?

Morofushi Kagemitsu wanted to say something to Kuroda Heibei, but at this moment the door of the ward was pushed open and Kazami Yuya ran in with a panicked look on his face.

Zhufu Jingguang, who had endured too much torture today, changed his face greatly: "What happened again?"

Is there something wrong with ZERO? He was in Japan, surrounded by so many colleagues, but Zero was alone in a foreign country, with only people from the organization around him, and the situation was far more critical than him! !

Kuroda Bei was much calmer: "Is this news from Furuya?"

"I have sent the news of the evacuation to Mr. Furiya. He said that he can use the explosion caused by Pramiya to evacuate, and the success rate is very high!" Yuya Kazami said quickly, "There is a problem with the network!"

"——The surveillance video of Katsutoshi Teraoka using his police ID to trick people into opening their doors and then shooting them to death was posted online!!"

----

A black Porsche drives on the road.

There was only Gin in the car, no vodka. When meeting Aoyagi Binguang, Gin would rarely bring his younger brother with him, even if the other party was fully disguised.

He chewed on his cigarette and glanced at the empty car seat next door.

There is only one electronic shackle that has been removed.

He remembered what happened in the bar just now...

……

"Click."

Gin, who came to the bar, bowed slightly and took off his gloved hands to press the sensing part on the surface of the electronic shackles.

With just a soft sound, the restraint instrument that had been worn for two months fell off his ankle safely.

He wanted to catch it, but Aoyagi Binguang was one step faster and took it in his hand and played with it.

Gin sat down next to Aoyagi Binkou and scanned the chessboard on the table. After seeing the layout clearly, his eyes turned cold instantly.

Aoyagi Binguang didn't seem to notice this. He put away his phone as if nothing had happened. Gin saw that it was a message to Vodka, asking him to send some video. He picked up a chess piece and placed it in a corner of the chessboard, and asked casually: "Then How is Bian doing?"

"The rat escaped."

Gin lit a cigarette, his tone was particularly unpleasant, and then he commented on the chessboard in front of him: "This game again? Do you only remember this game?"

"Yes."

Aoyagi Binguang admitted, he picked up a white chess piece again: "I have an average memory and can only remember some special things. This is the only time in the 311-game losing streak that I have experienced that I almost beat my brother. How could I forget?"

The scene suddenly fell silent, and only the sound of chess pieces being placed on the chessboard could be heard.

Gin looked at him steadily, and after a few seconds, he suddenly sneered: "It seems you have indeed returned to normal."

"I've always been normal."

Qingliu Binguang looked at the chessboard and added seriously: "I don't know why you think I'm crazy and give me such a troublesome test."

"In the past few months, I have been working hard and living seriously. I celebrated my birthday by myself. I went to bed and got up on time every day. If I felt unwell, I immediately went to see a doctor. I went to several concerts, learned new recipes, and took the time to learn new recipes. I have completed the tasks assigned by you one by one..."

"Neither my colleagues in the office nor Belmode found anything wrong with my words and deeds."

"Is it because of the code name? But 'Aniset' is the one my brother and I used to share, and I am the real Anisette——"

Beretta suddenly thrust over and pressed hard against the aorta of Qingliu Binguang's neck.

Qingliu Binguang's neck hurt from being pushed, and he continued without changing his tone:

"——Why do you think I'm crazy?"

Gin did not withdraw the gun, but stared coldly into those light brown eyes.

Anicet, this was the codename the twin brothers once shared.

It wasn't until the younger brother was selected to be an undercover agent when he was fourteen years old, and the organization prepared a new identity for him and "Aoyagi Binguang" appeared, that the brothers began to use different code names.

It's just that Aniset can become famous in the organization, but Anis, who appears later, must be unknown. Only a few people know about it, and he cannot use it when sending emails.

Gin chewed his cigarette and quickly went over everything that had happened in the past few months in his mind.

He is a sensitive, cautious and suspicious person. There are endless rats in the organization. He will doubt everyone and pay attention to every strange thing about them.

And the strangeness on Qingliu Binguang comes from...

"Since the end of May this year, what has been controlling you?"
