Chapter 10 Organization Members - 1
As soon as Bai Yexiu turned a corner, he saw Conan and Nakajima sitting on the ground.
Wait, why are you sitting on the ground too, Nakajima? Wasn't Conan the only one who got hit?
Just after finishing her rant, Tequila, who had already walked up to Bai Yexiu, gave him a scrutinizing look before walking straight past him.
Bai Yexiu silently retreated to the corner, making sure Conan and Nakajima didn't realize he was following them.
He came here just to confirm whether the transaction went smoothly, because he changed a node, and it's hard to guarantee that there won't be a butterfly effect later on because of his change of node.
Thinking it over, Bai Yexiu quietly followed Tequila. His next task was to check if Tequila's number was the 98 that contained the bomb. If it was, he would have to tell Gin first, since all he had on him right now was an empty syringe and a scalpel.
Furthermore, Gin and the boss have both mentioned the special nature of his identity, stating that he cannot reveal his code name to other members, except for a few special individuals. Therefore, going over to Tequila and revealing his identity is not feasible.
Along the way, Tequila did not notice that anyone was following them. Even Bai Yexiu couldn't help but shake his head, marveling that Tequila could not even detect such an obvious follower.
Inside the lobby, Bai Yexiu habitually leaned against a pillar, pretending to wait for someone. In reality, he was waiting for the receptionist to announce the brand of tequila.
"Guest number 98, this is for you."
焯。
As Bai Yexiu heard the receptionist speak, he cursed under his breath. When did Takeshita Yuya change it? He had clearly altered the point for changing the number plate.
Perhaps it's because that node was changed, which then created a new node...
Bai Yexiu seemed to be deep in thought.
If Tequila dies, he feels Gin will pick a fight with him again, accusing him of plotting against the organization's members.
Previously abroad, due to a chance encounter, Gin and Vodka were made prime suspects in a murder case. This murder was orchestrated by Byakuya to kill people on a certain organization's blacklist. As a result, Gin believed that Byakuya had planned the murder and included the two of them in his scheme.
Bai Yexiu believed that the incident was purely accidental, and that Gin and Vodka had overthought it, imagining him as a scheming boy who liked to plot against others.
I'm so wronged...
If Tequila dies this time, Gin will have no idea what he'll imagine, but he'll definitely imagine him as a really awful person!
Byakuya Xiu dodged Conan and made a phone call to Gin.
"Hey, Gin, something terrible has happened." Bai Yexiu said calmly.
Gin frowned on the other side: "Is there some problem with the deal?"
"It's like this..."
Byakuya explained everything to Gin, except that he knew the whole story. He tried to use the shortest and simplest language possible, but the gist was the same: don't let Tequila open the box, there's a bomb inside.
But when I checked my watch, I realized that even though I had explained it so simply, two minutes had already passed.
This... seems a bit too late... Oh well, I guess it's his fault for opening the box too quickly.
Gin hung up the phone without saying a word, but at the same time, a loud explosion followed the disconnection.
……
Bai Yexiu decided to give up and didn't care what Gin said afterward; he had said what he needed to say anyway.
Give up.
But now that Tequila is dead, he has something to do; he still needs to get his hands on that list.
At that moment, he was not far from the explosion site. Not far from the toilet, which had been reduced to ruins, he saw the culprit: Takeshita Yuya.
Using the faint smoke around them as cover, Bai Yexiu, like a ghost, brushed past Takeshita Yuya's shoulder and flashed past him.
He simply swapped the number plates; he didn't take his plate directly. Bai Yexiu wanted to see his expression when he discovered his number plate had been switched.
Just play.
Moreover, he would have to silence him. Even Gin wouldn't have kept Takeshita Yuya alive.
……
Taking advantage of the opportunity, Bai Yexiu went to the lobby and retrieved the list of top programmers. He then randomly picked up a person carrying a box in the corridor, gave him a chop to the neck, and exchanged the box with that person.
Because this box has the Mantek logo on it, if Takeshita Yuya's number was switched and he happened to be holding a box with the Mantek logo... wouldn't that be self-destructive?
"What a nuisance," Bai Yexiu muttered as he dragged the unconscious person to the toilet.
After finishing, Bai Yexiu carried the list and went to the hall, satisfied, ready to listen to a mystery show.
Clearly, Bai Yexiu arrived a bit late; the mystery show was nearing its end. Takeshita Yuya couldn't help but reveal the truth: "Actually, my number plate was switched!"
"what?"
Nakajima stared at him in astonishment, and even Conan, who was hiding behind him, was somewhat incredulous.
"I found it just now when I was exchanging my suitcase," Yuya Takeshita added.
Based on previous reasoning, the box containing the list should be Takeshita's current number plate, but now Takeshita says that his number plate has been switched.
A terrifying thought popped into Conan's head.
Could there be other accomplices besides tequila?
"By the way, Nakajima, who exactly is that tall man in black you traded with?"
Bai Yexiu hid behind the crowd, looking at Kogoro Mouri sitting on the ground. His mouth didn't move at all, but he was speaking.
He wasn't particularly surprised by this scene; he had probably witnessed firsthand the inexplicable images that had flashed through his mind when he was reading the newspaper.
He took out his phone and sent an email to Gin.
[The list has been obtained. — Cointreau]
However, they lost a member of the organization.
The organization was already short-handed, and now it seems even more so. Not to mention that the recent "slacker + undercover + waste cleanup" operation has already wiped out more than 30 people, including peripheral members and several codenamed members.
In the short time it took to catch his breath and send an email, Kogoro Mouri had already woken up, while Conan rushed out in a hurry.
Hidden behind the crowd, Bai Yexiu discreetly pulled out a scalpel and put on gloves. He deliberately stood in a blind spot, out of the reach of the surveillance cameras, to make his move easier.
At that moment, Takeshita Yuya, who had been subdued by the police, was suddenly stabbed in the left eye by a scalpel that seemed to fly out of nowhere. The scalpel was so fast that it was just a blur, and no one had time to react.
Blood splattered everywhere, and after a moment of silence, several screams erupted. The police, realizing what had happened, looked around warily and quickly ordered the scene to be cordoned off to find the person who threw the knife.
However, they were not as fast as Bai Yexiu. After throwing the scalpel, Bai Yexiu quietly left, avoiding the surveillance cameras, without even being noticed by anyone.
Takagi stepped forward and checked Takeshita Yuya's breathing, then shook his head at Inspector Megure. The scalpel had entered through his left eye, almost completely disappearing into Takeshita Yuya's skull, with only a small section of the hilt protruding.
Secret technique – kill and run.
Developer: Gin
……
Inside the Porsche, Vodka was focused on driving, while Gin took the box handed to him by Byakuya, opened it, and checked it to make sure it was correct.
"Agave..."
Before Gin could finish speaking, Bai Yexiu quickly interjected, "It's not my fault. I've done everything I could to help. Although I don't know how Takeshita Yuya switched the number plates, I've already stopped him. I didn't expect this at all."
After a pause, Bai Yexiu smiled at Gin: "However, I've already taken care of Takeshita Yuya, which has lightened your workload a bit. But I don't have any extra weapons on me as for Nakajima Hideaki, so I'll have to trouble you with that."
"Tequila is dead, so be it. It was a useless piece of trash and there was no need for it to stay in this world," Gin said quietly.
Gin didn't say that he had plotted against his comrades?
Bai Yexiu was about to be happy when Gin's words silenced him: "You should do less scheming in the future. Even though he's a good-for-nothing."
"Hey, no, you're just picking on that incident, aren't you?" I already said that the incident abroad was just a coincidence.
Bai Yexiu straightened up and retorted sharply, but at the same time he felt a deep sense of powerlessness.
Gin keeps feeling like he's plotting against his companions, what should I do? I need help!
“Not only that,” Gin said calmly.
"...I want to get off." He couldn't stay in this place with Gin for another second.
Camilla, which was wrapped around Bai Yexiu's wrist, seemed to sense that her master was not in a good mood. She peeked out from her sleeve and met Bai Yexiu's eyes.
The man and the snake looked at each other for a moment, and Bai Yexiu spoke first.
"What are you looking at?" He was in a bad mood.
Camilla immediately shrank back, not daring to move an inch.
My owner was so scary today...
