Conan: I'm Really Not the Manipulator

The Porsche stopped in front of the bar.

Only then did Gin look at Aoyagi Hikari again. This time he didn't look at the rearview mirror, but turned his head away.

"Tequila is not capable enough. I will find you another helper for your second mission."

Chapter 63 The title has been changed

In the bar, Zhu Fu Jingguang put down his glass and looked at the time again.

It's nine o'clock sharp now.

——Half an hour had passed since the time he and Gin had agreed upon.

This bar was one of the meeting places organized by the Beihu organization. The lighting was dim, and in addition to the bar where he was sitting, there were dozens of tables, each far apart.

The bar is open to the public as usual, and members of the organization will meet here and mingle with the crowd, as if they were just ordinary guests, without deliberately driving everyone away.

Being in such a mixed environment, Zhu Fu Jingguang remained highly vigilant and did not dare to relax at all.

……

Morobushi Kagemitsu is a public security police officer of the Metropolitan Police Department.

His childhood friend, Rei Furiya, is from the National Police Agency. They both infiltrated a transnational criminal organization that has existed for half a century as undercover agents.

Currently, both of them have been given code names and have become middle-level cadres in the organization.

Zhu Fu Jingguang picked up the wine glass, and in the transparent glass was Scotch whisky with the same code name as his.

He remained calm. Even though the other party was so late, he did not send an email or call to inquire because he was not sure whether the other party would come tonight.

On the surface, the code members have equal status, but in fact there is a big gap. Members like Gin (his boss) and Rum (his childhood friend's boss), who have certain command power over other members, have obviously higher status.

If the police want to obtain truly important intelligence, they have to arrest members of this status.

However, their status is matched by their caution and suspicion.

Bourbon has only been able to talk to Rum so far, but has never seen his real face; he can meet Gin, but before each meeting, the other party will repeatedly confirm, find someone else to go instead, or suddenly change the location and time.

It makes people want to catch him, but they don’t know where to start.

And now...

Zhu Fujingguang took a sip of wine and thought about the two emails he received yesterday, which were sent by Gin and "that gentleman" in the organization.

[Gin will temporarily transfer you to another member... obey the other party's orders and complete the mission. ]

[Tomorrow night at 8:30, Eden Cocktail Bar. ——Gin]

The email between the two did not mention the code name of that member at all. One could only judge from the tone of the email that the other party's status was much higher than one's own.

…Will this be his new opportunity?

Zhu Fu Jingguang thought so and put down his wine glass again.

Almost at the same time as the cup fell on the bar, he felt, not surprisingly, a familiar hard object pressing against his thin summer clothes from behind.

"good evening."

Zhu Fu Jingguang did not look back. He maintained this hostage state and greeted calmly as if he was chatting with a friend.

"You're quite late. What would you like to drink?"

"..."

Perhaps he didn't notice anything unusual, so Gin took back the Beretta that was against him and sat in the seat next to him.

"Anisette."

Gin told the bartender the name of the drink in a cold tone.

When hearing the name of this wine, Zhu Fu Jingguang was slightly stunned.

The bartender serving the organization nodded slightly. He turned around and took out a bottle from the wine cabinet at the back, unscrewed the cork and poured it into the glass. Without adding any other wine to mix it, he brought it directly to Gin.

Zhu Fujingguang looked at the glass of wine in front of Gin.

Anise liqueur originated in Amsterdam, the Netherlands. It is one of the most popular liqueurs in European countries, among which France and Italy are the most famous.

He had also heard this code name within the organization.

Aniseite, whose gender, appearance and age are all unknown, has been active in the Americas for a long time. Because of her good relationship with Gin, she occasionally comes to Japan.

This is not the key point. The key point is his other two identities.

He is the son of the third-in-command Goldwasser, and his position in the organization is also in the top ten, making him an absolute high-level member.

At the same time...

Before Gin looked over, Zhu Fujingguang retracted his gaze in time. He raised the wine glass in his hand and used the action of drinking to cover up the sharpness in his eyes.

——The brutal executioner who killed him and the former public security undercover agent Furuya Rei.

……

This criminal organization existed for decades.

The National Police Agency and the Metropolitan Police Department have sent out more than one or two people over the years. People like Morobushi Kagemitsu and Furuya Rei were sent as undercover agents after graduating from the police academy. They are currently the two highest-ranking undercover agents.

Before them, there was a senior who had been given a code name and had been lurking for more than ten years.

That senior was from Osaka, and attended university and police academy in Tokyo. Like Morobushi Kagemitsu, he was assigned to the Public Security Department of the Metropolitan Police Department after graduation.

He infiltrated the organization more than 20 years ago and lay low for more than a decade, but was unfortunately exposed ten years ago and died tragically in the United States. The Metropolitan Police Department only learned of his death after seeing reports about the unidentified male corpse in the United States.

It is said that the body of the predecessor had a completely shattered jaw and was shot three times in the chest, but other than that he had not been subjected to any other torture or punishment. This was a typical way of executing a traitor.

It was Aniset who executed him - Zero heard this news from Rum, and the probability of it being wrong was very low.

...Could it be that this time he will be transferred to work under Aniset?

Faced with such a big fish, Morobushi Jingguang showed no fear, nor did he show the slightest anger or excitement - but sitting next to him was the incredibly suspicious Gin.

Gin reached out and took the glass, but didn't drink from it.

"…How many rumors have you heard about this guy?"

"Aniset..."

Zhu Fujingguang seemed to have heard the name of this wine for the first time. He whispered:

"I heard that this seems to be a member who likes to stay behind the scenes and is good at mentally controlling others to achieve his own goals..."

——"Anisete? ... She is the goddess of discord who caused disputes with the golden apple, and he is the despicable serpent in the sacred Garden of Eden who tempted others to fall into the human world..."

This is what Vermouth said during a mission last year.

Vermouth is known for her mystery in the organization. Every time they meet, she wears a different face. Her words are quite mysterious, making it impossible to tell whether Aniseit is a man or a woman.

Hearing his words, Gin snorted coldly.

Zhu Fujingguang couldn't figure out what this meant. Was he dissatisfied with Aniseite? Or did he think this comment was untrue? He held the wine glass tightly and kept silent.

"Bah-"

The sound of a door being pushed open was so light that it reached their ears accurately through the noise and crowd in the bar.

Zhu Fujingguang noticed that Gin beside him suddenly looked up towards the door.

The title of the article has been changed, and the cover will be changed after a while.

Chapter 64 Gin sent me an undercover agent (Part )

The bar was still bustling.

Because of Gin's actions, Morofushi Kagemitsu looked towards the door.

As the door was pushed open, the fresh night breeze outside poured into the room, and he saw a young woman with brown-gray hair standing at the door.

She was wearing a long black dress, with the pitch-black night behind her and a waning moon hanging high in the sky. She seemed to be walking on the moonlight.

The moment the woman raised her head, Zhu Fu Jingguang felt that she was looking at him, but he didn't know whether she was looking at him, Gin, or a nearby guest.

The door closed behind her and she walked straight through the crowd towards them.

She came to the bar and walked to Gin on the right first. Without saying hello, she stretched out her right hand and took the glass of anise liqueur in front of him that he had not touched.

Zhu Fujingguang heard Gin hum again, and then there was a click beside him - the sound of someone sitting down at the bar - and the woman sat down to his left.

"..."

Surrounded on both sides, Zhufu Jingguang tensed his body silently.

Gin didn't react. Zhu Fujingguang slowly turned his head and looked at the stranger who sat down directly.

She has a pretty face and fair skin, and judging by her facial features, she should be from Eastern Europe.

The most attractive thing was her eyes, which were a clean emerald green color that reminded Zhu Fujingguang of the skin color of a certain snake he had seen in the past.

She didn't wear much jewelry, just a choker-type necklace that was held tightly around her throat.

When he looked at her, she was also looking at him. She didn't know what pleased her, but she raised a friendly smile to his eyes.

"Hello, nice to meet you~"

She had a light tone on her face and spoke fluent Japanese with a distinct Osaka accent.

Zhu Fu Jingguang was about to respond when he suddenly felt someone step on his shoe.

He lowered his head and looked downward, and saw a pair of black high-heeled shoes gently stepping on, or resting on, the toes of his leather shoes.

——Half of her calf was exposed under the skirt, and an electronic anklet was fastened on her white ankle.

Zhu Fujingguang was stunned. At this moment, Gin, who was sitting on the other side of him, stood up suddenly.

"Take care of your eyes and avoid looking at things you shouldn't look at."

His voice was cold and his tone was extremely unfriendly. "This is not a place for you to greet each other leisurely. If you have anything to say, go inside and talk."

……

The "inside" that Gin was talking about was not a strange room, but a billiard room inside the bar.
