Chapter 193 The Continental Hotel was invaded
Hotel Continental, Tokyo.
"are you sure?"
Kurosawa Jin was leaning on the sofa, holding a cigarette in his mouth, staring coldly at Conan who was sitting at the desk.
There was a hint of coldness in his tone, and he was obviously full of doubts about the information before him.
Conan looked down at the information in his hand, nodded slightly, and replied: "Ah... According to the intelligence, she is indeed the CIA."
Gin sat aside, his eyes sharp, his fingers gently touching the handle of the gun, and a crisp sound came out when he pulled the bolt: "Then I will go and deal with her now!"
Conan glanced at Gin, his tone full of disdain: "Are you sick? Why would you kill her?"
When Gin heard this, his eyes suddenly turned cold, and a spark of anger instantly ignited in his eyes. He then pointed the gun in his hand at Conan: "What do you mean? Do you want to save her?"
At the moment when Gin raised the muzzle of his gun, Wakasa Rumi behind Conan reacted quickly, raised the gun in her hand, and pointed it directly at Gin's head, with a serious and cold expression: "Put down the gun, Gin! If you dare to move, believe it or not, I will shoot now?"
The atmosphere at the scene suddenly became tense, the air seemed to freeze, and any slight movement could trigger a violent conflict.
Vodka stood aside, sweating profusely, his face pale with nervousness: "Hey... calm down, everyone!"
He quickly tried to ease the tense atmosphere, his tone filled with anxiety and helplessness. He didn't understand why people who were clearly in the same camp would point guns at each other at every turn.
The scene was deadlocked for a while, and the tense atmosphere made everyone's breathing heavy, as if a fierce conflict would break out in the next second.
Conan, who was being pointed at gunpoint, showed no sign of panic at all. He continued to stare intently at the information in his hand, his eyes calm and sharp.
He spoke slowly, his tone calm but full of oppression: "Have you been stupid in the winery? The CIA is investigating that organization, not the Continental Hotel. If you killed her, are you trying to create a new enemy for the hotel?"
The muzzle of Gin's gun trembled slightly, but he still did not retract it.
His eyes became increasingly cold, and he was obviously somewhat dissatisfied with Conan's questioning, but Conan did not give him any chance to fight back.
"Gin, the Continental Hotel has already made a lot of enemies. Can you please stop thinking about killing people? You are the manager of the Tokyo branch after all. Don't kill people at every turn. Use your brain!"
Vodka stood aside, watching the scene in astonishment, his eyes full of shock.
He had never seen the aloof Gin being scolded like this, and he felt extremely shocked.
Gin was silent for a long time, the anger in his eyes was suppressed, and finally he put away the gun, turned around and walked straight out of Conan's office without saying anything.
Vodka hesitated for a moment, then quickly followed, obviously not daring to stay.
"Really..." Conan rubbed his temples, revealing a helpless smile, then looked down at the information in his hand again, "This organization has been able to survive until now... They are really capable..."
His eyes gradually became solemn. The information of undercover members from various countries belonging to that organization was densely arranged on the paper. The large number of people made people guess that the organization would not only have undercover agents.

"So... Hondou Eikai actually decided to sign up for hotel membership?"
In the evening at Jingxin Coffee Shop, Chen Shuo sat by the window, waiting for dinner to arrive.
After hearing what Conan said, he seemed a little surprised, with a hint of curiosity in his eyes.
Conan nodded, his expression unchanged. "Yeah... Although she didn't say it explicitly, it's obvious that she has a deep hatred for the winery."
Chen Shuo tapped the table thoughtfully, as if weighing something: "Really..." He paused and looked out the window, "Then let her be."
He then changed the subject and looked at Conan with a smile: "Let's not talk about this for now. I heard today that you actually dared to teach that Kurosawa guy a lesson. You are quite courageous."
Conan looked helpless and complained with dead fish eyes.
"Sometimes I really don't know what he's thinking. He's obviously quite intelligent, so why does he always think of killing people when he encounters a problem? He clearly has a more profitable option. He's a truly incompetent manager."
Chen Shuo chuckled and patted Conan's head: "Hahaha, don't mind it! He has been influenced by that organization since he was a child. Although he has left it now, the habit cannot be eliminated in a short time. It will be fine after a long time."
"Huh! Even in my wildest dreams, I never imagined that one day the great detective would be able to work with Gin."
Xiao Ai, who was sitting in Chen Shuo's arms, couldn't help but complain after watching Chen Shuo and Conan finish their business conversation.
Her tone was filled with disbelief. Although the Continental Hotel had been established for a long time, she still felt it was a little unreal.
Chen Shuo smiled, gently ruffled her hair, and said in a gentle tone: "This is what they call there are no eternal enemies, only eternal interests."
"Time to eat!"
The voices of Mouri Ran and Haihara Megumi came from the direction of the kitchen.
The three of them smiled at each other, stopped talking, and stood up and walked towards the dining table. There was a hint of warmth in the air, as if at this moment, all the complexities were thrown behind their minds, and only the dinner in front of them was the most important.
---
"Where's Kogoro?"
At the dinner table, Chen Shuo suddenly discovered that one person was missing.
Normally at this time, Kogoro Mouri would be holding a beer and yelling at the TV, but today he was nowhere to be seen.
Mao Lilan spread her hands, her tone somewhat helpless: "I heard from my father that it seems that I have received a big order and went to the client's house today."
Conan couldn't help but complain: "Huh? Uncle Maori made seven figures in Besbania, right? He's still so hardworking?"
Mao Lilan smiled awkwardly, seeming a little embarrassed: "Maybe Dad is bored at home alone..."
She continued apologetically, "Ever since Conan began accepting the duties of the Arbitrator, Dad is often home alone. Mom is busy, and I'm often not at home. I guess Dad is also very bored."
Chen Shuo drank a mouthful of flavorful soup and nodded slightly: "It's good to go out and do more things!"
He put down the bowl, his tone somewhat relaxed: "It's better than him going out to play mahjong and gamble on horses."
Everyone laughed and the atmosphere became relaxed.

"Ring ring ring..."
Just as everyone was happily enjoying the food, Conan's cell phone suddenly rang.
"Huh? This is... the hotel's number. What happened?"
Conan answered the phone with doubts, his brows slightly frowned.
Seeing Conan answer the phone, no one paid much attention. After all, among these people, Conan was undoubtedly the busiest, and this was his normal state.
"what!"
But just a dozen seconds later, Conan stood up suddenly and slammed the table.
The sudden outburst startled everyone, and everyone was shocked by his loss of composure.
Usually, Conan is always calm and rational when it comes to hotel affairs, and this is the first time he has reacted so excitedly.
"What the hell are you doing? There's a whole building full of people, and you can't even stop one person? Do a thorough investigation and wait for me to come over!"
Conan's voice was low and full of anger, and it was obvious that this incident made him very angry.
After hanging up the phone, Conan rubbed his eyebrows, took a deep breath, and his expression became more serious.
He turned to Chen Shuo, a hint of anger flashing in his eyes. "The database of the Continental Hotel has been hacked, and we still don't know what information has been stolen. Gin fought with the intruder and said he has something to tell us. Let's go there quickly."
Hearing this, a cold light flashed across Chen Shuo's eyes, and his face became solemn. Then he nodded, stood up and picked up his coat: "Let's go!"
The three girls at the table looked at each other, with worry in their eyes.
Although they didn't say anything, it was obvious in the atmosphere that this was a big deal and couldn't be delayed.
When Chen Shuo and Conan walked out the door, Wakasa Rumi had already driven the car to the door of the cafe and was waiting.
The two got into the car. There was silence in the car and the atmosphere was depressing.
The sound of tires rubbing against the ground can be clearly heard as vehicles speed through the streets of Tokyo at night, as if the entire city is closely connected with this sudden crisis.

"what happened?"
Conan sat on the sofa, staring at Gin who was smoking a cigarette in front of him with sharp eyes.
At this moment, Gin's face was ashen, he looked a little embarrassed, and a strong murderous intent emanated from his whole body. It was obvious that he had suffered a great loss.
"is my problem……"
What surprised everyone present was that the arrogant Gin actually admitted his mistake from the very beginning.
His voice was low and hard, and he seemed a little unwilling, but he had to admit his mistake.
"I underestimated my opponent at the beginning. I never expected that it would be her... I got the upper hand."
"Oh?"
Chen Shuo raised his eyebrows slightly, a look of interest appearing on his face.
"It looks like you know the intruder."
Gin had a cold face, took a deep puff of cigarette, and a complex emotion flashed in his eyes.
He nodded, his tone heavy.
"There's no doubt about it. Long silver hair, powerful skills, and I knocked out her contact lenses. She has two-colored pupils. She must be one of Rum's confidants, Curacao!"
"Rum..."
Conan whispered the name softly, his brows furrowed slightly.
He had long known that Rum was the second-in-command of the organization, but since Gin left the organization, all news about Rum disappeared completely.
This person has always been low-key and very cautious.
Now, they actually sent people to sneak into mainland hotels?
It seems that the organization can no longer sit still.
At this moment, the door was suddenly pushed open, and Vodka walked in panting, his face covered in sweat: "Brother! I'm back!"
Seeing Chen Shuo and Conan were also there, Vodka stopped in embarrassment: "Ah, Mr. Chen and Conan are here too!"
Gin stood up, a cold glint in his eyes. He looked at Vodka and said in a calm but oppressive tone, "How is it? Did you catch up?"
Vodka wiped the sweat from his forehead and shook his head in frustration: "Sorry, brother, she had a car accident while we were chasing her and fell into the sea. We lost track of her."
Gin raised his eyebrows slightly, was silent for a moment, sighed, and sat back in his chair.
"Really..." He whispered, "No wonder, that woman's driving skills are extraordinary."
Conan said that he had never seen such a reasonable person like Gin, but now was not the time to dwell on it.
Conan put his hands in his pockets, stood up, and scanned everyone present with a determined look.
"Right now, the most important thing is to keep the news secret. We absolutely cannot let anyone know that the mainland hotel was invaded. Otherwise, the hotel's reputation will suffer a serious blow."
He turned to Gin and said in a serious tone, "Gin, what information was stolen from the hotel?"
Gin shook his head, his expression still grim. "The hotel's information is still there, but that woman from Curacao has a super memory and special memory storage capabilities. No one knows what she has memorized."
Chen Shuo, who had been resting with his eyes closed, suddenly opened his eyes, his eyes sharp.
"Contact Amuro and have him cooperate with the hotel to secretly blockade all of Tokyo and prevent any suspicious individuals from escaping the city. Issue a hunting order to the hotel and have all hotel members hunt down Curacao and try to capture him alive."
Vodka replied subconsciously: "Okay, Mr. Chen."
Then he hesitated slightly, his eyes flickering, and whispered, "But...will the public security department cooperate with us?"
"I will," Conan said confidently, adjusting his glasses slightly.
"Amuro Toru is an absolute guardian of order. If any piece of the hotel's information is taken out, it will cause chaos. He will not let such a thing happen."
"Hi!" Vodka nodded and quickly turned around to carry out the order.
