To a certain extent, just like a butterfly in the Amazon rainforest of South America, occasionally flapping its wings may cause a tornado in Texas two weeks later.
Ever since Asakura Shin came to this world, the development of this world has spread out like a chaos theory.
Let’s not mention Kudo Shinichi’s debut battle in front of the Metropolitan Police for the moment, and turn our attention to Asakura’s investigation.
Originally, he could leave small matters such as this kind of field investigation to his reliable subordinates to solve. As the central coordinator, he only needs to analyze and organize the information handed back by the people below, and deduce the truth, which is enough to achieve his goal.
But now, after all, the lessons from the past are there, and there seems to be something wrong with the subordinates he once trusted.
Although Asakura Makoto has always been adhering to the principle of employing people without suspicion, after one mistake, these four words have to change their position and become suspicious.
Before finding the cause of the flaw, Asakura was more inclined to act on his own.
And more importantly, he had an inexplicable feeling in his heart that there might be something not simple behind this seemingly ordinary incident. If he let his subordinates do it rashly, he might miss some valuable clues...
So, under these considerations, he came here, the home of the former partner who Pisco guessed that he had contact with the organization.
Of course, now this so-called partner has been cut into pieces and flushed into the sewers by people in the organization, and is now probably waiting to be digested in the stomachs of fish in the Pacific Ocean.
In this case, theoretically speaking, his home should also be burned down in the organization's customary cleanup, leaving only a ruin that was burned to white ground and had no value.
His home was indeed burned down to nothing.
But think about it, rabbits know about the three burrows of cunning rabbits, there is no reason that capitalists don’t know about such things. Poor people will work hard all their lives for a home. The so-called upper class elites who ride on the heads of the people don't feel bad about buying one house and losing another.
After Asakura took action personally, he quickly found other properties of the deceased whose name was not important.
This is a mid-rise apartment, which happens to be located on the seaside. Looking out from the large open-air balcony, you can have a panoramic view of the tranquility and turbulence of the Pacific Ocean. In the distance, there is a line of water and sky. Occasionally, the waves rise and bloom with white flowers. It is fascinating to see it. A feeling of relaxation and joy arises.
Okay, what's going to happen here?
He cautiously entered the door and passed the entrance hall. In the spacious living room, Asakura was like a puzzle player who lacked clues, searching for locations that might contain clues one by one.
The inside of a luxury sofa, in the potting soil, behind the TV, between the curtains...
He left no place where things could or could not be hidden, and the end result was that there was nothing of value in the living room.
After searching the living room, he turned his attention to the locked room, recalling the structural diagram of the house in his mind, and first came to the door of the study.
The study door was closed and unlocked. Asakura Makoto held the door handle and slowly turned it. The door lock mechanism made a "click" sound, the reed contracted, and the door slowly opened inward under the force of push.
At this moment, an extremely subtle "bang" sound was heard amidst the "squeaking" of the door's hinges opening and closing.
This voice... The moment Asakura heard it, he suddenly jumped to the side, curled up his legs, and fell to the ground with his head in his hands.
Immediately afterwards, less than a second later——
"Bang!" The explosion sounded, and the air wave rushed out of the study, smashing the wooden door to pieces, and sawdust flying in all directions. Under the impact, the entire floor seemed to shake.
"Grenade trap, is this really something that a business owner can create? Fortunately, I came here in person. If I had asked my subordinates to come over, I'm afraid they would have been trapped here."
After the explosion passed, Asakura stood up and patted the dust that had fallen on his body. With some luck, he looked inside the study.
The study room was very empty. There was not a book on the bookshelf. The desk also looked like someone had visited it long ago. Each drawer was wide open and nothing was left inside.
In the study room, there were still gray-black embers that looked like burned paper. They were blown around the room by the blast of air, seeming to convey the decorator's mockery of Asakura.
Someone got there first and there’s nothing of value left…
After realizing this, Asakura Zhen quickly left the place. If nothing else happened, the sound of the grenade exploding would attract the attention of the people around him, and they would wait for them to call the police before trying to escape... This would be very difficult for him. It’s easy to say, but there’s no need to bother with it.
After returning to his car, Asakura sorted out what happened recently.
Miyano Akemi's kidnapping, the undercover agent in the lab, and now Pisco's trouble...
Although there is no evidence that the latter is intrinsically linked to the first two, only by considering the worst possible scenario can we deal with emergencies more calmly.
When Asakura was sorting out what happened during this period, the relevant departments that received the alarm call saw vehicles with sirens blaring passing by him one by one, heading towards the place where the explosion occurred.
That's how it started.
He learned that someone in the underground black market was selling bombs in small quantities. After investigation, he discovered that the person's identity was one of the bombers who caused the death of Kenji Hagihara.
After confirming this bargaining chip, Asakura decided to use it to make an interesting deal with Zhufu Jingguang.
To be honest, at that time, he never thought that things would develop to this extent. According to his imagination, it should be a happy cat-and-mouse time.
result......
"It seems that someone is targeting the organization behind the scenes. Who could it be?"
Asakura started the car thoughtfully.
Once the grenade trap came out, what happened in Pisco was no longer a simple leak. The person behind the scenes was definitely here for the organization——
Who could be so bold as to attack both the black and white forces of the organization at the same time?
While thinking, the names of colleagues, big and small, flashed in Asakura's mind one after another and were killed one by one. Impossible, the island country is the headquarters of the organization, and the underground world here has long been managed like a metal barrel. , if a dragon that crosses the river appears randomly and can defeat the organization, it cannot catch its tail...
To this extent, at least a national intelligence agency at the level of the CIA or FBI must devote all its efforts here, right?
It can’t be...
Suddenly, Asakura really thought about a possibility. Although it was very absurd...but it was reasonable...
It's just that he doesn't understand what that guy would do, or how dare he do it?
