"Bourbon, don't you think we are wasting our time?"
"Miss Keel, when the situation reaches a deadlock, what is most needed is often waiting."
"Oh? Could it be that sitting in a coffee shop and tasting coffee can be regarded as a way to break the deadlock?"
Putting down the black coffee in her hand, Reina Mizuna looked up at Toru Amuro opposite, and asked in a meaningful tone.
"Or are you actually using this method to buy time for someone?"
"Kiel, why can't I understand what you are talking about?"
Opposite Kiel, Toru Amuro's eyes met Reina Mizuna's without hesitation. Their eyes met in the air, and both sides tried to see some hidden information in the other's eyes.
Bourbon and Geer, Toru Amuro and Reina Mizuna.
Because both of their code names appeared on some of the undercover lists that Curacao had provided back, both of them were suspected within the organization.
However, due to the incomplete information on the list, Reger, who was unable to completely determine whether the two of them were undercover agents, proposed a test:
Find an undercover Metropolitan Police agent hiding in the organization and deal with him in front of Reger to prove their loyalty to the organization.
This is definitely not a simple test, Amuro Toru realized this from the beginning.
Regel demanded that he and Kiel act together and forcibly tied the two of them together, which in itself was a disguised form of mutual surveillance.
Neither of them are fools. Once one of them does something suspicious, there is a high probability that the other will notice it.
At this point, the game between the two begins.
Is Geel by Toru Amuro's side really an undercover agent, or is she a genuine member of the organization?
When she noticed something suspicious about Toru Amuro, would she help him hide it? Or will he immediately tell Regel to use Toru Amuro’s head to clear himself of suspicion?
Toru Amuro didn't know any of the above.
"Looking back, it seems like you, Kil, joined the organization five years ago, just like me."
Amuro Toru took a sip of coffee and suddenly spoke.
Since there are only a few people in this cafe, and the two of them are sitting in a corner, they don't have to worry about being heard by others as long as they lower their voices a little to communicate.
"What? You want to investigate my past?" Hearing this, Kil neither admitted nor denied.
"I didn't have this idea, but I suddenly felt a little emotional. We have obviously had no communication in the past five years, but now we are forced to sit here and drink coffee together because of an inexplicable list. It's really...unpredictable. ah."
"I don't think so." Kil heard the meaning of Amuro Toru's words.
Toru Amuro was testing her.
Deliberately expressing dissatisfaction with the organization's suspicion in his words to observe her reaction.
Based on her reaction, we can further determine the authenticity of her undercover identity and whether she is an enemy or a friend.
A loyal member of the organization will feel more or less dissatisfied with the organization when faced with such sudden suspicion. Those who are overly aggressive may even give up on themselves.
At this time, Toru Amuro was deliberately creating such an image.
Although both of them were on Curacao's undercover list and were suspected of being undercover, he still did not dare to expose himself to Kiel easily before thorough confirmation. He could only weave "organization loyalists" for himself. "position to test Kiir.
So, how should Geir respond to the temptation from Toru Amuro?
"It makes no sense to say that now."
She chose not to respond.
Not answering Toru Amuro's words at all, Reina Mizuno also picked up her coffee and took a sip, and said in a calm tone:
"Rather than talking about those useless things, I care more about Bourbon, how on earth are you going to catch that undercover policeman?
We have wasted two days here. Don't tell me you want to wait for the undercover agent to walk out of the Metropolitan Police Department and shout "I am an undercover agent" in front of us?
Even if Regel didn't set a time limit, I don't think he would just watch us do nothing here. "
Although Regel's request was for her to gain Toru Amuro's trust in this "cat and mouse" operation, trust must come slowly.
If Toru Amuro tests her and she responds immediately, this will arouse Toru Amuro's vigilance.
She still needs to continue acting, and in the process of acting, she needs to reveal her "friendly position" bit by bit.
Therefore, there is no rush.
As a member of the organization, Reina Mizuno naturally had some understanding of Toru Amuro.
This is definitely a man with terrifying abilities, and any negligence on her part may become a flaw in his eyes.
"It sounds like Gil has already figured out how to find the undercover agent?" Toru Amuro didn't care when Gil interrupted his rhythm and asked instead.
"There are no solutions, but there are some ideas."
"..."
On the way out of school, Karasuma Ying, Mao Lilan and Suzuki Sonoko picked up Conan at Tedan Elementary School and walked to the Maori Office together.
"It's strange, Sonoko, isn't it that Mr. Qingshui didn't come to take you back today?"
Facing Mao Lilan's question, Suzuki Sonoko smiled proudly and said: "Humph, I'm his sister-in-law, just a brother-in-law. You must listen to me~"
However, before she could be proud for two seconds, Karasumaying exposed her ruthlessly with a smile.
"Mr. Qingshui told me before that it was Sonoko who said she would be a guest at Mr. Mori's house today. She begged Mr. Qingshui for a long time before he agreed not to pick her up today..."
"Wow! Aying, how did you know about this?!"
The cowhide was exposed, Suzuki Sonoko blushed with shame, and rushed towards Karasuma Ying with open teeth and claws.
"Ah, Mr. Qingshui sent me a text message in the afternoon."
Karasumaying pressed Suzuki Sonoko with one hand, took out her phone with the other hand, and called up the text message from the afternoon.
The content of the text message was roughly asking Karasumaying to take care of Suzuki Sonoko.
"Strange, Aying, why do you have my brother-in-law's number?"
Being held down by Karasuma Ying, Suzuki Sonoko glanced at the content of the text message, frowned suddenly, and stared at Karasuma Ying with a scrutinizing gaze.
"I added it during the party at the villa before. Because Mr. Qingshui's cooking skills are very good, so if I have the chance, I would like to learn more from him."
Karasumaying explained, and at the same time handed the phone to Suzuki Sonoko. It showed that except for this text message this afternoon, the two did not have any communication.
"Aying, please don't steal my brother-in-law..." After returning the phone to Karasumaying, Suzuki Sonoko glared at Karasumaying, with an expression like a puppy guarding its food.
"No way..." Karasuma Ying said with a helpless smile. She had no intention of finding a boyfriend at the moment.
"But what a surprise. I didn't expect that Mr. Qingshui would ask Sister Ying to do something like this... Is it because Sister Ying looks more stable?" Xiaolan on the side was a little curious.
"It's indeed surprising..." Beside the three of them, Conan nodded subconsciously.
Qing Shuijing and Karasuma Ying, both of them were people he thought were "extraordinary".
Among them, Conan even suspected that Karasuma Ying might be a member of the "Black Organization".
But after the events in Curacao, this suspicion has almost disappeared.
However, deep in Conan's heart, there is a doubt about Karasuma Ying that he has never solved.
Why did Karasumaying show such a shocked expression after the police meeting?
As for Qing Shuijing, this silent and quiet man, although Conan once suspected that he had a "special identity", this was just his guess without any evidence.
From the party in the villa until now, he has never interacted with this man again.
These two people...
Is there really no problem at all?
