Gin was still pointing his gun at Mizuno Reina and didn't think there was anything wrong with his decision.
Last time outside the Mori Detective Agency, Shuichi Akai wounded Lark's face with a sniper rifle. Although it was just a disguised face, if Lark hadn't become nervous in advance and filled the fake face with serum, Lark would have used the fake face. The matter was exposed. In any case, the feud was settled.
Moreover, Lark seems to be too influenced by that person, and his attitude towards Akai is too hateful. If Lark is not allowed to kill Akai, Lark may be left with a knot in his heart. His mental state will not be very stable in the future, and he will have a headache. It's still him.
Chianti owed Lack two heads before, so it made sense to give them to Lack this time.
In short, it would be better for this head to go to Lark.
"Click..."
In silence, Gin opened the pistol safety with his finger.
But he also wanted this head. S-class heads like Akai's were rare. At least he wanted to see what Akai Shuichi looked like when he died...
Shui Wu Liannai: "..."
She knew that Gin had a bad taste in torturing people, including psychological torture.
As long as she is determined in her heart, Gin cannot scare her. However, can Gin turn on the safety guard if she disagrees? What if the gun goes off?
…
Rice Flower Department Store.
After Chi Fei Chi walked in, he got on the escalator. Considering that Gin's phone number would be very busy, he dialed Vodka's number and switched to earphone communication. After putting on the earphones, he put away his phone.
"Lark? Are you in?" Vodka asked, and then quickly said, "Brother Gin asked me to put the speakerphone on."
"drop."
"Lark, how's the situation?" Gin asked as usual.
Chi Feichi was thinking about how to scare the members of the red team today, and hissed, "I'm a little happy."
Vodka: "..."
Shouldn't Lark talk about the situation in the mall? What does it mean to say how you feel?
Shui Wu Liannai: "..."
She became more and more curious about the hatred between Akai Shuichi and Lark. Thinking of killing Akai Shuichi, Lark was actually happy... like a child.
Gin didn't expect to get such an answer. Thinking that a certain Lark actually made a joke, he must be really happy, "...Forget it, as long as you are happy."
Shui Wu Liannai: "..."
One will answer and the other will answer.
Vodka: "..."
As expected, the eldest brother had secretly discussed with Lark in advance about the ownership of the head. It was biased.
"There are a lot of people in the mall. It's hard to find that guy. I'll take a walk first." Chi Fei arrived late on the second floor and continued to take the escalator up to the third floor. He paid attention to the people around him and hissed into the earphone. , "I brought a camera and a rope. If the guy hides and can't get out, I will show you or find a way to get him out."
Regardless of whether it was the real Akai Shuichi or Amuro's undercover agent pretending to be Akai Shuichi, he would still be happy to bully him if he could get the chance.
"Hmph..." Gin was in a much better mood, but Lark was still kind. He didn't forget to bring everyone else to be happy when he was happy, "If it will cause trouble, don't mess around."
"I'm sensible," the hoarse voice said, and then asked, "Do you have anything you want? I can help you buy it."
Shui Wu Liannai: "..."
Anyway, this 'you' definitely doesn't include her, right?
"Whatever you want." Gin replied.
Vodka sweated, "Well, I don't want anything in particular."
"That's it, I'll contact you if necessary."
After speaking in a hoarse voice, he hung up the phone.
In such a harmonious and friendly atmosphere, Reina Mizuna always felt that she shouldn't be here when Gin pointed a gun at her, so she sighed, "Gin, your relationship with Lark is really good."
Gin picked up the phone with his right hand and was about to call Cohen. The gun he held tightly in his left hand was still pointed at Reina Mizuna, "This doesn't seem to be something you should worry about right now."
Sui Wu Lian choked, and a string of unknown characters floated in his heart, and he smiled calmly, "Yeah, what I'm more curious about now is, after you find out that that guy Akai is not alive at all, will you be happy or feel... disappointment."
…
The sixth floor of the department store.
Chi Feichi got off the escalator, walked around the electrical appliances area next to it, and then moved to the electronic goods area.
In a shopping mall where people are coming and going, and shelves and stores are everywhere, it is not easy to find someone. If the target is not locked, if the other person sneaks into a store for a minute, they may miss it.
He remembered that in this plot, the trio of Mouri Kogoro, Conan, and Mourilan Shinigami went to the sporting goods area, which was on the fourth floor. Other key figures would also meet there, so it was impossible for them to come to the electrical appliances area.
But it was only around ten o'clock in the morning, so he still had plenty of time. He could take a look at the mall to see if there was anything new, and learn about the current development stage of the world's bizarre and twisted technological road.
The fifth floor is an area for furniture and household items, as well as a children's play area.
Starting on the fourth floor, there are several cafes and drink shops, as well as a sporting goods area and some clothing stores.
Chi Feichi wandered to the fourth floor, walked through each store, bought a set of regular clothes, preparing to use them as spare clothes in case of emergency, and continued to take the escalator to the third floor.
The third-chome department store in Mika Town was a place he had visited once before when he accompanied Koshizu to buy daily necessities. In addition to some clothing stores and casual restaurants, there was also a large fruit shop on the third floor.
He wants to buy bags of oranges for his colleagues.
The prices of fruits in Japan are generally high, and the packaging is hard to describe. Three or four oranges can be packed into one serving. I wish I could pack even one orange in a small box.
Chi Feichi didn't mind. He picked five boxes and took them to the counter. Just as he was about to continue, he noticed a clerk in this store transporting goods into the store with a trolley. He turned around and looked over.
Behind the counter, the female clerk waiting for the checkout saw the interest of the customer in front of her and explained with a smile, "The fruits in our store are all fresh, and they are all delivered to the store for packaging. The fruits delivered at noon are all They are fruits that have been stored for a long time. Fruits that have been stored for a short time will be delivered in the morning and put into the discount area the next morning.”
Chi Fei belatedly believed that the fruit in this store was packed by himself, because he saw the whole durian. He looked away and said to the female clerk in a hoarse voice, "Add another durian and a coconut."
The female clerk was startled when she heard the hoarse voice of the young foreign man in front of her. Considering that the man might have injured his vocal cords before, she didn't show any surprise. She just confirmed, "One, one whole?"
Chi Feichi nodded, "Please help me wrap it up directly."
Waiting for cutting and packaging, he will pack up a bunch of boxes and come over? It would be easier to just take one away.
As for the coconut... I can bring it back later to make chicken soup, and add it to the gin, vodka and Takatori Isao who are still working hard on a hot day below.
Three minutes later, the female clerk finally put the coconuts and durians into square boxes of different sizes, put them into the bag, and calculated the accounts. After Chi Fei made the late payment, she smiled and said, "Thank you for your patronage. Welcome to visit next time. The smell of durian is very special, so I will help you pack it more tightly. If you can’t finish it all at once, you can cut it into pieces and put it on ice..."
Chi Feichi picked up the bag and went out directly.
It was almost time, he had to go see if Conan was in place.
In the bathroom on the third floor, Andre Cameron was washing his hands with his head down when he noticed someone walking behind him. He looked up at the mirror in front of him out of curiosity. He was shocked to see Shuichi Akai, who was wearing a black baseball cap and had burn scars on his face, walking by. , when he came back to his senses, he found that the other party had already gone out, and he quickly opened the door and chased him into the corridor with a panic expression.
There are many customers in the corridor outside, some entering the store, some leaving the store, and some planning to go upstairs or downstairs to the escalator.
In the crowd, he didn't see anyone who looked like Akai Shuichi at all. There was one... person wearing almost black clothes...
Chi Feichi turned the corner and saw Andre Cameron staring at him from a distance with a very lively expression. Without paying much attention, he carried two large bags of things and walked slowly towards the escalator. .
Yes, if he successfully bumped into one, his expression would satisfy his bad taste.
After Andre Cameron came to his senses, he quickly retracted his direct gaze, and with an ugly expression on his face, he used his peripheral vision to pay attention to the figure walking up to the fourth floor. After the figure in black disappeared, he ran towards him in a panic. The coffee shop we agreed with Judy.
Raki…
Why is that guy here? Also, what happened to Mr. Akai he saw in the bathroom?
In the coffee shop, Judy was in front of the counter, anxiously asking the waiter if she had had any customers with burns on their faces before. She also took out a black hat to confirm, "Did that person wear a black hat like this?"
The waiter didn't understand why Judy was so anxious, but he still said truthfully, "Yes, I've put it on."
Andre Cameron, who opened the door and entered the store, heard the conversation between the two and asked, "Is that person... Mr. Akai?"
Judy turned around in surprise and heard Andre Cameron say that he met Akai with scars in the bathroom. He also confessed that he had met Shuichi Akai with burn scars on his face before and that he came to the mall this time to follow the hat clues. She just found a coaster that was suspected to be left by Shuichi Akai, which wrote a message on it saying that it was dangerous here and asking her to run away. By the way, she also analyzed that Shuichi Akai might have found a way to escape death, but lost his memory due to injury and had just regained his memory. As soon as he discovered the crisis, he had to give her an early warning in this way.
Due to her excitement, Judy did not notice any difference in Andre Cameron's expression.
Andre Cameron had a cold sweat on his forehead. After listening to Judy's words, he asked with a stiff face, "Isn't this a trap for those guys?"
"Huh?" Judy was stunned and quickly retorted, "But if that is really Shuichi..."
Andre Cameron whispered with an ugly face, "I just met Raki."
"Wha, what?" Judy was stunned and lost her voice. Remembering that the latter's expression had been wrong since he came in, she realized that Andre Cameron's expression was not only ugly because of seeing the scar Akai, she quickly confirmed, "You just met Lark. Wine? Is it here?"
Andre Cameron nodded, "After I chased him out of the bathroom, I didn't see Mr. Akai again, but I saw raki in the corridor, so I doubted whether this was their trap."
"But what's the purpose? Why did they do this? Do they still want to use this to lure us out and catch us all?" Judy said. She felt that this idea was outrageous. Then she remembered the warning words on the coaster, and her face changed instantly. With a hint of uneasiness and fear, he anxiously asked Andre Cameron, "Have they already discovered that Shuichi is not dead and are planning to take advantage of Shuichi's condition? That person...Raki...after him Where did you go? Did you pay attention just now?"
"that……"
Andre Cameron turned to look at the glass door of the store, but was surprised to find a mobile team hurriedly running past outside, and he and Judy were stunned in place.
Mobile team? Something big happened here...? (To be continued)
