Chapter 93 Oh, Sherry!
Shirley has defected! This is huge news!
Bourbon had recently heard that Shiho Miyano, unable to contact her sister, went to Gin, the highest-ranking member of the organization she could reach, to demand an explanation, only to be told by Gin that her sister was already dead.
The excuse was that his identity was exposed during the mission, and he was killed on the spot.
So Shirley went on strike, using this method to seek death and rebel against the organization.
Bourbon knew exactly what Gin was thinking.
She was nothing more than an isolated and helpless girl, whose personality was even considered quite timid within the organization. Even if she wanted to resist, she would be like a canary locked in a cage, her efforts futile.
Since he didn't want to be a "glorious" code name cadre, he might as well be a prisoner for a while.
But no one expected that Shirley would disappear. A living person of that size broke free and vanished from the heavily guarded solitary confinement cell, which was patrolled and monitored by special personnel.
Since almost being caught by Shuichi Akai, this was the first time Gin had suffered such a huge setback, and in his rage, many of the peripheral members also suffered as a result.
Now, orders have come down from above, requiring all organization members who can spare the time to put down their work and search for Shirley with all their might, regardless of whether she lives or dies.
"We have to get there before them and find Sherry—no, we have to find Shiho Miyano—"
Amuro Tooru believes that outstanding talents should belong to the country, not be allowed to languish within the Black Organization, and Miyano Shiho is precisely among the most outstanding talents.
Moreover, Shiho Miyano is also Elena Miyano's angel.
As for Akemi Miyano, it was because Gin acted too quickly; by the time Bourbon received the news, she was already gone.
Since Shiho Miyano had been in the organization all along, it would be virtually impossible for her to get rid of the person without anyone noticing. In fact, if he had just come into contact with her, the suspicion that he had never been completely cleared of as an undercover agent would likely have become even stronger.
Now that they've escaped on their own, even if we don't know how they did it, they have a lot more room to maneuver.
There are priorities. The available police forces should be temporarily withdrawn. We must first find Shiho Miyano, who has defected to the light, and make sure to find her before the rest of the organization.
As the sun set, Akutagawa Hiko hid in a corner of an abandoned building, smelling the very strong odor of gasoline, feeling quite speechless.
Today, he came to a good spot he had found before, intending to study ninjutsu, but unexpectedly stumbled upon a crime scene.
Based on their conversation and his own memories, Akutagawa Hiko roughly summarized the events.
A woman named Hanai Akiko lost her family and fortune because her father's company was acquired by a man named Takei Katsuhiko.
So she prepared to take revenge on this man, but because she regarded the man's daughter, Naoko Takei, as her own sister, she decided to give him a chance.
So she planned a kidnapping. Hanai Akiko kidnapped Takei Naoko and intended to judge whether the man valued family ties by observing his attitude towards paying the ransom.
However, it was clear that the man had failed the test. He paid the ransom twice, but only the top layer was money; the rest was filled with cut-up newspapers.
In this man's eyes, his business—the enterprise he built by exploiting others and acquiring and merging other companies—was more important than his daughter.
Completely disillusioned with this man, Hanai Akiko decided to no longer tolerate him and to burn him alive. The massive amount of newspapers and the meager amount of banknotes became his burial goods.
A bucket of gasoline was poured on it, and Akiko Hanai took out a lighter.
"Take your money and go to hell!"
The man instantly lost his composure and frantically tried to beg for mercy: "No, no, stop! There's so much gasoline here, you'll die too!"
According to the plot, it should be Conan's turn to appear now.
Hiding in the shadows, Akutagawa Hiko thought to himself, but Conan didn't appear even after Hanai Akiko lit the lighter.
Whether the man lives or dies is of no concern to Akutagawa Hiko, but the problem is that this kind of secluded place, where few people come, is hard to find, and it would be such a pity if it were burned down.
Akutagawa Hiko shook his head helplessly and bit his finger until it bled.
Hai-Xu-You-Shen-Wei, Ninja Technique: Summoning Technique.
Amidst Tachibana's utterly disgusted expression, he was summoned here by Akutagawa Hiko's spirit medium.
"Meow~"
Hanai Akiko, who was about to throw the lit lighter at the man, paused: "A meowing sound? Where did that cat come from?"
This man, who committed countless evils for the sake of his so-called business empire, deserves to die; she has done a service to the people.
However, after killing this person, she felt ashamed to face Naoko Takei, who was being held captive in an abandoned building. With her hands stained with blood, even if it was such scum, she was no longer an innocent person.
Therefore, she never expected to leave the building alive.
The problem is, she can't let any more innocent lives be involved, not even a kitten.
Hanai Akiko took out a rope and carefully tied up Takei Katsuhiko, whose leg was already injured and unable to move easily. Only then could she free her hands to look for the "Mother~Mother~" who had unexpectedly barged in.
This is the Japanese term for cats, but Hiko Akutagawa automatically translated it into the more common and easy-to-understand "Mimi".
Xiaolongbao strictly followed Akutagawa Hiko's orders, leading the people away step by step.
He then took out a crystal ball from the storage scroll and, using the mark on Conan's body, prepared to see where the main character had gone.
Based on Akutagawa's understanding of Conan, he should have climbed into the trunk and come along.
Then, inside the crystal ball, he saw Conan approaching via that high-tech skateboard. He only needed to stall him for a while.
The problem is then easily solved.
When Hanai Akiko returned to the first floor with the steamed buns, Conan arrived just in time. After a breathless barrage of words, he successfully stopped Hanai Akiko's criminal behavior.
Akutagawa Hiko wasn't quite sure whether this situation would be judged as an attempt or terminated, as he had heard that the difference between the two was not small.
On his way home, a light rain began to fall. Akutagawa Hiko, disguised as a drug dealer assassin, quickened his pace and stopped abruptly as he passed an open space.
Just now, he was practicing his sensory ninjutsu as he walked, as was his habit.
Unexpectedly, I sensed a slightly weak young life among a pile of cement pipes.
These cement pipes are not very large in diameter, not enough to hide a homeless person, but just right for a small child.
Thinking that perhaps some child had gotten lost while playing and couldn't get out, or perhaps it was some other special circumstance, Akutagawa Hiko happily added a new setting to his persona to flesh out his character, preparing to lend a helping hand to the unknown child.
