Vodka, who was hiding nearby, was still frightened.
Bourbon, good man!
As soon as he arrived, Granburch no longer targeted him and bullied him, which was a cause for celebration.
Chu Ming looked at Toru Amuro who was so angry that he couldn’t speak, and shook his head triumphantly. This was just the beginning. Compared to the injuries he suffered when Toru Amuro arranged for the police to surround him, this was nothing.
Although he knew he would not die, Chu Ming was very vengeful. He could report Bourbon directly to the organization, but what was the point of killing him directly?
Allow Bourbon to lurk, but don’t leak any information to him, exploit his labor, cheat him intentionally or unintentionally like yesterday, and divert the blame to let him deal with the FBI.
When his usefulness is gone, tell him: I actually knew you were an undercover agent a long time ago. Are you angry? Are you angry?
Thinking of this, a malicious smile appeared on Chu Ming’s face.
Toru Amuro shook his shoulders, trying to shake Chu Ming off him.
Chu Ming didn’t care whether he was injured or not. Instead, he pulled a stool over from the side and sat down. He leaned leisurely on Amuro Toru and adjusted himself into a comfortable position.
“Brother is discussing with Vermouth about snatching the research data. It seems that Rum sent the message. Yesterday’s Mud Conference was just a smokescreen. The fact is just the opposite. The real purpose of GN Biological Laboratory is to purchase a piece of information from the Mud Conference. What we have to do is to intercept this information.” Vodka explained to Chu Ming.
“But how can we be sure that Rum’s source of intelligence this time is accurate? And what kind of information can the Mud Ginseng Association give us for snatching?” Chu Ming frowned and flipped through the route map sent by Rum.
After Vermouth and Gin finished their discussion, they came over.
“This is an operation instructed by the boss. The boss suspects that this is the batch of information that the organization lost that year. If the information is recovered this time and it can be confirmed that it was lost that year, then we may have something to do.”
“The information from that year?” Toru Amuro showed a curious look at the right time.
Gin glanced at him and said, “This is not something you should know. Vermouth and Granburch, the two of you will be responsible for approaching the target and taking away the information when appropriate. Chianti and I will cooperate with each other on the target route. Bourbon, you will be responsible for causing chaos and covering their retreat after they succeed. Vodka will drive to meet them.”
Gin spread out the map. “The traders who will be attending the meeting will leave from this road at nine in the morning and pass through the outer ring road. This place is suitable for us to set up an ambush before he reaches his destination.”
Chu Ming suddenly blinked: “Brother, I have a good idea…”
Chapter 187 We won’t let any good person go
“Is this information really as miraculous as they say?”
A blond and blue-eyed man walked out of the hotel door holding a folder.
He is Hank, a researcher at GN Biological Laboratory. Because he had been in Japan for some time and spoke Japanese well, the head of the laboratory sent him here to do the trade.
He put the information in his carry-on bag, turned around and prepared to find a taxi to go directly to the airport. The person he was doing the deal with also said that many people coveted this information, so it would be best to leave after the deal was completed to avoid any further complications.
After waiting for a long time, he finally got a taxi and waved excitedly on the roadside.
The car stopped and the driver stuck his head out with a simple face: “Sir, I’m sorry, I already have a passenger in my car.”
Hank was a little anxious and looked at his watch: “Then do you know why it’s hard to get a taxi here? I waited for a long time but couldn’t get a taxi.”
The driver scratched his head and said, “This place is quite remote, it’s really hard to get a taxi. Where are you going, sir?”
“I’m going to the airport.”
“You’re going to the airport too. The lady I’m driving is also going to the airport. Why don’t you talk to her about it? Ask if you can ride with her?”
Hank quickly asked the person in the back seat, “Miss, can I help pay for your fare?”
The woman in the back seat frowned, then reluctantly agreed after thinking about it: “Okay, but I have to go get something from the villa outside the city first.”
Hank quickly got in the car and buckled his seatbelt: “It’s okay, I’m fine.”
On the opposite building, Chianti looked at the situation and whispered into the headset: “The fish has taken the bait.”
At this time, Hank was sitting in the car in a good mood, but his hands were tightly holding the briefcase. This was the information he spent 300 million US dollars to buy this time. If it was lost, the person in charge would eat him. At this time, the car was already speeding towards the suburbs.
The driver turned on the radio in the car: “It’s too boring, let’s listen to the radio.”
“——Now I have to interrupt with an emergency announcement. A murder has just occurred in a hotel in Maehara City. According to eyewitness testimony, the murderer took a black briefcase from the victim after killing him. Eyewitness descriptions show that the murderer has blond hair and blue eyes, is about 182cm tall, has short hair, and wears a red hooded T-shirt and black trousers… Please call the police immediately if you spot the murderer.”
The more Hank listened, the more he felt something was wrong. He looked at the clothes he was wearing today, and then thought about his own features.
The driver slammed on the brakes, and both he and the passenger in the back seat stared at him.
Hank shook his hands in panic: “No, it’s not me, this is not about me–“
The driver grabbed him and shouted to the back seat: “Quick, call the police!”
The woman in the back seat picked up her cell phone and beeped a few times, then hurriedly explained the situation to the police over there.
“No, brother, it really wasn’t me. It must be a coincidence!” Hank was speechless.
The driver said righteously, “We’ll know whether it was you who did it when the police arrive. I bumped into you at the entrance of Maehara Hotel! How could it be such a coincidence!”
“Woooooooooooooooo——” A car with police lights on stopped in the woods.
“Who called the police?” A baby-faced policeman adjusted his hat, got out of the car with his colleague and slowly walked over.
“Officer! It’s me, I called the police! I heard the broadcast in the car that you are looking for a murderer! Look at this man, my driver and I met him at the entrance of Maehara Hotel. Look at the briefcase in his hand, his clothes, and his features!”
The woman quickly ran behind the police officer and pointed at Hank who was being grabbed by the driver.
Hank wanted to cry but had no tears: “Officer, believe me, it wasn’t me!”
“Hello, sir. I’m Shochiku Maehara from the Maehara Police Station. I wonder if I can check the contents of your bag? Also, can you help my colleagues answer a few questions? Don’t worry, we won’t let any good guy go, and we won’t give up any bad guy!”
Hank was a little panicked at this time. In order to prove his innocence, he didn’t pay attention to what the police officer said and just handed over what he had in his hand.
“Officer, look, this is what’s in my bag. I really didn’t kill anyone.”
Officer Shotake gave a soothing smile and said, “Don’t worry. Now can you please go to my colleague Officer Amuro and answer a few questions?”
Hank nodded dazedly. When Officer Shotake, the policeman pretending to be Chu Ming, saw him walking towards Amuro Toru, he quickly pulled out a folder from his bag and took out another folder from his side and put it in.
The whole set of movements was done smoothly and in one go.
Chu Ming took his bag and walked towards Amuro Toru with a serious face: “Officer Amuro, is there any problem?”
The corners of Amuro Toru’s mouth twitched and he shook his head: “No, it seems that this is really a coincidence. Mr. Hank had already left the hotel door when the crime happened.”
Chu Ming returned the briefcase to Hank: “I’m sorry Mr. Hank, I’m sorry to trouble you.”
Hank breathed a sigh of relief and subconsciously looked in his bag. Nothing was missing. He smiled and said, “I hope it’s a misunderstanding. I was scared to death…”
Chu Ming sent him to the car and saluted him: “Thank you for your understanding.”
Then I watched the taxi leave.
Gin came out from the back and asked: “Did you get it?”
Chu Ming shook the file bag in his hand and said proudly, “Of course, there will be no problem if I take action.”
[There is one more chapter to make up for yesterday’s extra chapter, which will be posted in the evening~]
Chapter 188: Smells Far Away, Smells Nearby
This was the idea that Chu Ming suddenly came up with last night.
After all, if guns are really used, the gunshots will attract the police, and the Mud Ginseng Society is deeply rooted here. Once they find traces of the organization, they might take advantage of the situation. At that time, whether the information can be obtained smoothly will be a problem.
There were only a few codenamed members who came out to carry out the mission this time. Some peripheral members who were originally stationed in Maehara City could only fight small battles. If a real fight broke out, there would not be enough people on their side who could do anything.
That’s why Chu Ming came up with this cool move. This was all inspired by Conan.
He set this trap by relying on the fact that Hank had lived in the United States for many years and was unfamiliar with Japan and the police.
Last night at midnight, Chu Ming asked the peripheral members stationed in Maehara City to puncture the tires of all the taxis in the vicinity. Except for the one driven by Vodka, all the other cars are in the repair shop today.
He also specially arranged for Vermouth to disguise himself as a passenger, so that Hank could get a ride and be taken to a deserted suburb without arousing his suspicion.
At the same time, Chu Ming and Amuro Toru stole the police lights from the patrol car, put on the clothes they stole when they sneaked into the police station last night, and successfully disguised themselves as police officers.
They just waited for Vodka to turn on the radio and play the report that had been prepared long ago. Then as soon as Vermouth called, the two of them drove directly to the scene and took away the information smoothly without arousing suspicion.
Alas, this is the crushing of IQ~
People like Gin, who spend their days fighting and killing, are not suitable to be the leader of an action team.
After this incident, will the boss remember his previous suggestion and promote him?
In fact, he doesn’t have to be the leader of the action team. He can also be the chief leader, that is, the chief leader of all groups, including the action team, intelligence team, scientific research team, logistics team, etc.!
The kind that is below the boss and above everyone else is not bad either——
—————-
Not long after returning to the base, Vodka and Vermouth also came back. Vermouth said that Hank got on the plane smoothly without any doubt.
“What if he remembers this case later but can’t find it?” Vermouth pointed out a loophole.
“I put something on his phone, he’ll find it~”
Chu Ming leaned back in his chair. He had made all the necessary preparations.
As he spoke, he quietly tore open the seal of the file bag and peeked into the bag furtively, trying to see what the confidential documents were.
Toru Amuro looked at Chu Ming’s attempt to peek, and then looked at Gin and Vermouth who clearly saw it but did not try to stop him. His opinion of Granburr’s status rose again.
He couldn’t even ask about something, but Granburch could actually peek…
Seeing that Gin did not stop him, Chu Ming didn’t want to read it anymore. He raised his hand and threw the information to Gin.
“I don’t understand. Should I go back to Tokyo? The funds I brought back are in my brother’s office and I haven’t packed them up yet.”
Vermouth blinked: “The fund that is destined for you?”
Chu Ming nodded: “Correct~”
Gin took a puff of his cigarette with satisfaction and walked out first. Another 400 million in cash came into his account. Ever since Granburch started robbing money for the organization, he hasn’t had to worry about raising funds for a long time.
Amuro Toru tore off the makeup on his face and glanced at Chu Ming: “Do you like this face so much?”
Chu Ming touched the two layers of makeup on his face and said happily: “Of course, this face looks so young, of course I like it~ Oh, I look really young like this, next time I go on a mission, I have to choose a younger face for my disguise.”
“…”
—————-
After returning to Tokyo, Toru Amuro did not follow them to the base as he still had several part-time jobs to do.
“I wonder how many days of vacation the boss will give me this time~” Chu Ming rolled around on the sofa, full of anticipation.
Vodka panicked and thought, it’s all over. Should he persuade his elder brother to take him out to do some tasks to avoid the limelight?
