After listening to Qin Zhibo's explanation, the FBI agents all showed expressions of understanding.

"I see……"

James pondered for a few seconds, turned to look at Judy beside him, and said, "Judy, then we will all be equipped with pagers starting tomorrow."

Judy nodded, "Yeah."

In this era, although mobile phones have become very popular and even ahead of their time, pagers have not been completely eliminated.

In Japan, where conservative style prevails, pagers are still a viable means of communication.

Finally, Qin Zhibo added: "Even if you are equipped with a pager, you still have to use your cell phone."

"However, when using a cell phone to talk, do not reveal critical information, and do not talk for a long time in a fixed location, which will continue to create the illusion that the FBI is still using the cell phone."

……

Before leaving the FBI base, Qin Zhibo had another conversation with Akai Shuichi.

Including his physical condition in recent times and whether he remembered anything.

"There's nothing wrong with my body."

"remember……"

Akai Shuichi's answer was as cold as ever.

Qin Zhibo understood what he meant, so he patted him on the shoulder and comforted him, "Don't worry, you will remember it sooner or later."

"Your mother, Akai Mari, has come to Japan. This is her current address."

Qin Zhibo took out a hotel business card from his pocket, with Mary's room number written on the back.

"And your sisters are also in Japan, go visit them when you have time."

"Maybe I can remember something..."

Shuichi Akai took the business card, took a look at the address on it, and nodded to Qin Zhibo to thank him.

"Thank you."

"Nothing, this is what I should do."

"I'm leaving, please take care of yourself."

"Goodbye."

Before leaving, Qin Zhibo glanced at Judy who was standing behind him.

While she was talking to Shuichi Akai, Judy kept looking at Shuichi Akai's profile with that look in her eyes.

Although Qin Zhibo didn't know the specific situation, it seemed that these two people had been in a relationship for a period of time.

Conan, who was standing in a low position, looked at Shuichi Akai and always felt that the other person had an inexplicable temperament, which seemed different from normal people.

Moreover, the reason for the other party's amnesia should be related to the previous assassination of Yasuteru Domon.

When they walked a little further away, Conan raised his head and asked Qin Zhibo as he walked.

"Qin, what happened to the FBI agent named 'Akai Shuichi'?"

"Why did he lose his memory?"

Qin Zhibo frowned slightly, not knowing how to explain for a moment.

"His story is a little complicated, but you can assume that he has already died once before..."

"die?"

Conan's eyes flashed with surprise.

Because he remembered that Qin Zhibo did not show any particular surprise when he saw the "dead" Gin reappear.

Some even believe that "resurrection from the dead" is not completely impossible.

"Do you mean..."

Just as Conan was about to ask about the terrible thought in his mind, the phone in his pocket suddenly rang.

hum-

He picked up the phone and heard Mao Lilan's harsh voice on the other end.

"Conan! Look at what time it is now!"

"Where on earth are you now!"

Conan quickly looked at the time in the upper right corner of the phone screen. It was already past 8 o'clock in the evening.

When I went out today, I just said I was going to visit Qin Zhibo's office, but I ended up spending the whole day there and haven't returned yet.

Although Mao Lilan is very confident in Qin Zhibo, she is afraid that Conan will be involved in some strange incident along the way.

"Sorry! Sister Xiaolan!"

"Uncle Qin is next to me now, I will be back soon!"

Looking at Conan apologizing repeatedly into the phone, Qin Zhibo smiled helplessly.

It seems that this guy will be a henpecked man in the future...

……

In a bright and spacious space, a graceful white-haired woman was lying on the operating table in a spread-eagle position.

As time passed, the woman slowly opened her eyes.

here it is……

The woman tried to open her heterochromatic eyes as wide as possible, but the brightness of the dome was so great that even if her pupils shrank to their smallest size, they were still extremely dazzling.

The collar around the neck also restricted the movement of the head, making it impossible to see the surrounding situation.

Hands and feet too.

At this moment, a heavy voice that had been transformed sounded from the dome.

"Curaçao..."

"You completed your mission very well this time."

As the sound rang out, the bright dome dimmed, and a large number of black blocks appeared in a spliced ​​shape.

In the middle of the dome, a business card with a huge "RUM" popped up.

"Lord Rum..."

Curacao stared at the familiar scene on the electronic screen in the dome. It was the business card he saw when he first met Rum.

CODE?NAME：Rum

No.002

Curacao quickly suppressed his shock and replied as calmly as possible: "Thank you, Lord Rum."

A heavy mechanical voice sounded again from all directions in the space. "This time the organization eliminated the undercover inside the organization. You have made an invaluable contribution."

"But, Curacao, do you remember what I once said?" "From now on, your special ability can only be used by me, whether it's input or output..."

As the mechanical voice finished speaking, a huge silver metal arm stretched out from an invisible corner.

At one end of the metal arm is a small, intricately crafted metal claw.

It stretched out in front of Curacao, like a feline, looking curiously into Curacao's eyes.

Curacao caught a glimpse of the metal claw from the corner of his eye and asked hastily, "Lord Rum, what is this?"

The dome of space made a rumbling sound and responded: "Now is the moment when you are completely at my service..."

"Give it all you have, Curacao."

As soon as Rum finished speaking, the camera on the front end of the metal arm locked onto Curacao's right eye, the special eye with a transparent pupil.

The next second, the metal arm suddenly reached forward and inserted into the gap between Curacao's eyeball and eyelid.

Before Curacao could react, a sharp pain shot straight from the eye nerves to the brain.

"what!"

"what--!"

Sharp screams echoed throughout the space.

Curacao's hands and feet twitched and trembled, hitting the operating table, making "bang bang" sounds.

But even so, the metal arm still seemed to be alive, making slight adjustments according to the swing of Curacao's head.

After a while, bright red blood oozed out of Curacao's right eye.

After a moment of stalemate, the metal arm suddenly pulled out.

"what!"

Curacao let out a scream and her slender waist arched high.

Along with the metal arm, Curacao's special right eye was also pulled out.

Under the 360° white light with no blind spots, the right eye was like a transparent glass ball, carefully clamped by metal claws.

Curacao's body was completely exhausted, his azure left eye was wide open, and his right eye was replaced by a blood-red hole.

At this time, Rum's heavy mechanical voice sounded again.

"Curaçao, don't resent me."

"This is the power I temporarily deposit in you."

"Now I just took it back and used it against someone..."

……

9:00 pm, Zhibo Detective Agency.

Qin Zhibo dragged his tired body back to the third floor of the office and fell on the sofa.

A lot of things happened from morning to night that day.

First I went to the hospital to see Curacao and thought of the virtual world plan.

Then I went to Dr. Agasa's house and Suzuki Building to make various preparations, and also cosplayed as Gin in the virtual world.

Finally, I met up with the FBI and had a video conference with Kudo Yusaku.

A fulfilling day.

It was also a busy day.

The good news is that this time not only resolved the undercover identity crisis of Toru Amuro and Rena Mizunashi, but also persuaded a member of the organization to turn to the light.

Curacao is the confidant of Rum, the second in command of the organization. He will definitely be able to obtain some important intelligence in the future.

Moreover, communication between Curacao and this side is not a problem, because she knows the undercover identities of Bourbon and Kiel, and any information that needs to be reported can be passed on through these two people.

But in this case, Rena Mizunashi won't be able to leave her undercover post for any time.

This reminded Qin Zhibo of that classic line.

"We agreed on three years, and after three years, there will be another three years!"

Thinking of this, Qin Zhibo smiled slightly.

Given the way time passes in this world, it is estimated that no one can wait for three years.

Moreover, the organization's recent actions have become increasingly larger, which shows that their plan should have been laid out and is not far from being realized.

Just then, the sound of a cell phone vibrating came from inside the coat hanging on the coat rack by the door.

Qin Zhibo sat up from the sofa, took out his cell phone from his coat pocket, and found that it was a call from Kudo Yusaku.

This made Qin Zhibo a little surprised. Didn’t they just make a video call in the FBI base an hour ago?

He picked up the phone, and Kudo Yusaku's somewhat hurried voice came from the other end.

"Mr. Qin, Hei Yu's investigation has yielded results."

"what?"

Qin Zhibo was stunned at first, then he remembered that after the London meeting, the Heiyu couple were assigned to Innsmouth to investigate the legend about Cthulhu's resurrection.
