Chapter 58 Touching the truth in the fog
"...Who told them to embezzle gold behind my back?"
The evidence-confirmed murderer, worker C, knelt down and cried bitterly, "This operation was my plan from beginning to end. They relied on Why did you abandon me at the last moment?"
Faced with the murderer's belated repentance, Yamamura Cao remained unmoved, "You said you stole the gold from the Dusk Annex?"
" Isn't it over there in Nagano Prefecture? By crossing the mountain behind the gas station and taking a slight detour, we can avoid the surveillance and arrive at the Dusk Villa. "
Worker C took the initiative to confess everything, "There are many tourists visiting there every day, so even if we are suddenly there. No one noticed it even after it emerged from the mountains.
Nine years ago, the Dusk Villa underwent an astonishing change one day, revealing its legendary true treasure to the world.
A mansion whose appearance is entirely made of gold.
After receiving the news, reporters from various media and passers-by came to the hotel. Unfortunately, before that, the villa was surrounded by people gathered in Karasuma, preventing anyone from getting close.
But the Karasuma Group also released news that after they check and confirm the safety of the annex, they will fully open the Dusk Annex to the public as a free attraction.
The security inspection was carried out for a week. When the time came at dusk, the fence outside the villa was removed as scheduled.
Those who came to explore the road quickly discovered that the Dusk Villa was only covered with a thin layer of gold on the outside, and the interior decoration was no different from that of an ordinary mansion.
Even the smell of blood left behind after a bunch of celebrities died is rumored to be gone, and everything is very new.
Despite this, the Dusk Villa occupies a large area, and even if only the outer layer is paid for, it would still require a large sum of money.
During that time, all major media outlets were rushing to report on this incident, lamenting the financial resources of the Karasuma Group, the gap between capitalism and the bottom, and so on.
Bourbon had also heard about the news, and even went to see it with Hiro because the Dusk Annex was in Nagano.
At that time, there were security patrols around the dusk villa to prevent unruly tourists from trying to scrape a layer of gold dust from the outer layer.
Other than that, Dusk Villa is just an ordinary mansion.
Over the past few years, countless people have tried to scrape the gold dust off the outer wall of the Dusk Villa. Worker C was the only one who tried to dig it out brick by brick.
Bourbon knelt down, put on his gloves, and picked up a piece of dirt that the beater C took out.
One side of the brick in my hand was covered with a thin layer of gold powder. After scraping it all off and selling it, I could indeed get a lot of money.
But it can only be said that the efforts and gains are not directly proportional.
How long does it take to scrape the gold powder, not to mention the loss rate in the middle.
This was not the first time that Bourbon saw people who were obsessed with money, so he felt very calm.
Suddenly, his eyes sharpened and he carefully looked at the brick in his hand.
Bourbon discovered that the brick in his hand seemed to be synthetic.
The bricks on the side closest to the gold powder are obviously older. Although they are very similar in color to the bricks on the other side, they were definitely not fired at the same time.
Bricks have been artificially replaced.
After coming to this conclusion, Bourbon thought about the rumors of the treasure in the Dusk Annex and the "security inspection" that the Karasuma Group had maintained for seven days.
Is it possible that the entire Dusk Villa is indeed filled with gold from the inside out?
Because the exposure was too sudden, Karasuma Group could not completely cover it up and could only leave a face-saving project, but all the gold inside had already been transferred.
Putting down the bricks, Bourbon stood up. Even if he came to this conclusion, he would not make a big fuss about it.
It is indeed too shocking that the entire annex is made of gold, and it will inevitably cause greater chaos. It is understandable that the Karasuma Group wants to hide this.
It's just that after acquiring such a large sum of gold, the Karasuma Group still behaves in a low-key manner, which is a bit unexpected.
Thinking of what he had investigated during this period, Bourbon's eyes darkened for a moment.
According to the information on the "Haneda Koji case" provided by Chief Kuroda, the organization is most likely related to the Karasuma Group.
However, the police searched inside and outside but could not find any criminal clues related to this group.
Now that the Karasuma Group has been put on the public security watch list, the incident at Dusk Villa cannot be used as a breakthrough.
After all, this annex has belonged to the Karasuma Group from the beginning, and there is nothing wrong with how they deal with it.
Therefore, Kuroda Bei has been responsible for leading the public security to search for clues in this area, but Bomoto does not often contact him, so he can only wait to inquire about the progress from Hiro the next time he exchanges information.
"Actually, I wasn't the one who provided the plan!"
When he was about to be handcuffed, worker C yelled regretfully, "I am at most an accomplice responsible for implementing the plan!"
The prison terms for principal criminals and accomplices are different.
"But this cannot change the fact that you committed murder."
Yamamura Cao handcuffed him without hesitation. "If you have anything to explain, please go back to the police station."
"The method of killing was taught to me by others! It was others who encouraged me. !"
Seeing that the matter was a foregone conclusion, worker C began to defend himself vigorously, trying to reduce the crime he had committed.
Yamamura Cao frowned, "Who taught you this?"
After hearing the question, Bourbon silently turned to look at the wage earner C.
"It's the Crow Forum." Worker C said quickly: "It was the people on the Crow Forum who taught me."
"The forum is anonymous, and I don't know who the other party is..."
Bourbon pursed his lips, and a flash of light flashed in his eyes. Cold rage.
The shortcomings of the Crow Forum emerged at this time.
Right now there is just a worker C, but there may be a worker DEF soon.
"Crow Forum?"
Yamamura Cao felt that the name sounded familiar. "Isn't this the one where the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department issued an announcement asking us to strictly prohibit dissemination, downloading and opening?"
"It said that there would be viruses that could steal bank accounts."
Hearing this Worker C's eyes flickered with guilt, "But it's really easy to make money from it. Some tasks can be done with just a few clicks..."
"Officer Yamacun, there are many people here. Will it be better to go back to the police station for interrogation?" What?" Bourbon interrupted the worker C.
This case must be taken over by the public security. Yamamura Cao cannot handle this with his ability.
Milton Duff yawned, Bourbon was so slow, when will he come back?
Just because he knows his identity, you can completely ignore him, huh?
"Mi, why don't we just drive away." Wei Que put his hands on the steering wheel, ready to move.
"This is Bourbon's car."
Milton Duff opened a new lollipop, "I don't recommend doing this, be careful he will come back to retaliate against you."
"I don't want to be entangled with a black-faced golden retriever."
Fifque reluctantly gave up the idea of leaving bourbon behind and brought up another topic, "Do you like Italy or Germany?"
Milton Duff paused slightly.
After he resolves Karasuma Renye's matter, Milton Dove will directly take the people who belong to him in the organization and fly away.
During this period, apart from completing organizational tasks in Europe, Vique was secretly busy with this matter.
They need a new territory.
Including Grappa, who faked his death and went out, he was also paving the way in secret.
"It depends on what you like." Milton Dove had no problem with either country.
"The focus will be on Italy!"
Wei Que decided excitedly, "When I was in Europe, I watched other people using TikTok, and there was a dry little old man in Germany eating dry bread. I can't imagine that this will be my three meals a day in the future. "
Hearing the description, Milton Dove suddenly wrinkled his face, he couldn't imagine it.
"Remember not to do anything you shouldn't do." Milton Duff reminded, "I plan to open a serious company."
This is not the second illegal criminal organization!
"Okay."
Wei Que felt aggrieved, "Italy is the birthplace of the Mafia after all. I heard that some Mafia members can even work as police officers! Not the undercover kind!"
Milton Duff:?
What a beautiful state of mind.
Is the Italian police okay?
It is said that he also saw the news about the Italian police station paying rent to the Mafia. Is it true?
Why is it even crazier than here in Miwa Town?
"If you want to be a police officer, why did you refuse when the BOSS asked you to go undercover in the SAT (Special Assault Force)?"
Not only Wei Que, but his twin brother Grappa also refused.
As a result, BOSS could only send other members.
For this reason, both of them were punished by the BOSS.
"In that case, wouldn't we not be able to see Mi?"
Wei Que said matter-of-factly, "Maybe Mi can't remember it, but Grappa and I once said we would protect Mi."
"No matter what happens, we will do this. ."
Milton Duff looked at the man in the driver's seat. He really had no specific memory of what Finch said.
Only a few blurry fragments flashed through his mind. Two tall red-haired men knelt on one knee in front of him and swore something.
So did those words appear in his mind only when his body returned to normal from the age of seven?
Let everyone live together.
"How's it going?"
Wei Que blinked his eyes that were like pigeon blood jewels, "Are you touched by me?"
"If you are, please like me more~ Give up the gin!"
"Qin What wine can do to you, Grappa and I can do it twice as well!"
Milton Duff: ...
Who can tell him this kind of thing? Oh, Ley, bourbon.
What happened to the two of them?
"I like you very much now." Milton Dove said perfunctorily: "There is no need to double."
Intuition that their double is not a good thing.
Besides, what Gin is doing to him now is very bad.
"Bang." Wei Que couldn't help but get angry.
Does Milton have any hidden nestling plots?
The first person chosen in the training camp was Gin, although at that time neither he nor Grappa cared about the little seven-year-old Milton.
But people will regret it. If it were to happen again, Wei Que would definitely choose to be Milton's first guardian and partner!
How cute is the little Milton! Damn Gin doesn't know how to keep a cat!
If he could raise a Milton with his own hands, Wei Que couldn't imagine how happy he would be!
Imagining that scene, a blush of excitement gradually appeared on Wei Que's face.
It's a pity that the fact is that he didn't even get to see little Milton after he lost his memory!
Say it again, damn gin!
Milton Duff narrowed his eyes and said, "Welch, no matter what you are thinking, stop what you are thinking right now."
It actually made him want to pull out a gun. Whatever was related to him must be banned.
"Okay." Wei Que, who felt guilty, instantly became obedient.
"Actually, what I'm thinking about is the feasibility of letting Gin become a policeman."
Wei Que decisively brought up a hot topic to divert Milton's attention.
The topic was very successful. Milton Dove imagined the scene of Gin arresting the prisoner and almost laughed out loud, "Gin becomes a policeman? Then he will probably write countless self-criticisms."
Haha, Gin writes self-criticisms , this one is funnier.
Finally, Yamamura Cao was allowed to escort the prisoner back first, and Bourbon, who informed Kazami Yuya to come and take over the case, heard Milton's words as soon as he got in the car.
What police?
Who should check?
Gin? ! ? !
Bourbon hesitated to exit the door and re-enter.
Has he traveled into some parallel world?
If Gin can be a policeman, he can be the boss of the black organization!
"Bourbon is here~"
Vique, who had been paying attention to the outside world, immediately locked the car door, "Car, start -"
He stepped on the accelerator to the bottom, and the white Mazda rushed out.
In an instant, he overtook the police car that was not far ahead.
"Do you want to join the Department of Transportation?"
Milton Duff gave the red-haired man a sideways look as a warning, "I can give you a sports car to drive by yourself later."
"Oh, isn't this how excited you are to see Bourbon-chan? Well~" Wei Que lowered the car back to normal speed.
In the police car behind, Yamamura hesitated and stopped turning on the car's horn.
Hmm... I guess it was just a small mistake at the beginning.
"I hope you can cherish my car, Finch."
Bourbon tugged at the corners of his lips, "Otherwise, get out of the driver's seat!"
"I know, I won't touch your wife~"
Bourbon:.
Who would treat a car as a wife?
Ignoring the scolding Bourbon, Wei Que winked to the side and asked, "Mi-chan, what do you think of the proposal I just made?"
In fact, he really wanted to throw away his gin and become a policeman after going to Italy, so that he wouldn't be in the way. It’s their turn!
"Maybe Gin is an agent of the FSB (Russian Federal Security Service), but after the former Soviet Union collapsed, he could only give up on himself and fall into darkness. In fact, he still has faith in the country in his heart."
Bourbon: ...
how is it that it is both outrageous and reasonable at the same time?
It's a pity that Wei Que doesn't write novels.
Milton Duff raised his phone and turned on the recording button, "Do you dare to repeat what you just said and ask me to send it to Gin for questioning?"
"Hey."
Seeing this, Milton Duff opened one eye half-open and leaned lazily on the back of his chair.
"If you say that, Afu is the BOSS who has undergone experiments. He hides his identity and hides among us, pretending to be a stupid boy to collect intelligence."
"Forget this setting." Wei Que curled his lips, "If he is the BOSS, I will immediately It destroyed him."
Bourbon: ...
Vodka is the BOSS? What a bad joke.
Even more outrageous than the fact that Vodka is actually an undercover agent of the FSB.
"Quiet."
Milton Dove became more and more excited when he saw people chatting with each other, and finally stopped him, "If you continue to make noise, go back to your Europe."
There was no one around, and Wei Que, who often talked to himself and went crazy in Europe, was honest. Driving, "Okay, I'll adjust back."
There was no conversation all the way, and the car returned to Mihua Town smoothly.
Fifque drove the car to the place where it originally started.
After getting off the car, Milton Duff waved to the two of them, "Bye, don't follow."
Watching the white-haired young man disappear at the intersection, Wei Que instantly became expressionless and turned to look to the side. The man said, "Bourbon, no matter what you do, don't bother Milton anymore."
Bourbon raised his eyebrows and leaned against the car door with a nonchalant look on his face, "What can I do?"
Hearing this, Wei Que said The eyes, which were like pigeon-blood jewels, were much darker, with a hint of blood, "You and I know this very well."
"Milton will be soft-hearted, but I will not."
The 1.9-meter-tall red-haired man said slightly Looking down at Bourbon, he didn't look as out of place as he did when he was next to Milton Dove.
"Do your job honestly, and you might get some unexpected rewards."
After saying this, Wei Que reached into the passenger window, picked up the half bag of uneaten snacks on the seat, and turned around to leave. .
After confirming that the person was gone, Toru Amuro walked around the car and found nothing that shouldn't be there before getting into the driver's seat.
These hyenas leading bad cats are so annoying.
After starting the car, Toru Amuro frowned and thought about the last words left by Wei Que.
If you really want to talk about his "job", it is to collect evidence and destroy the organization.
Wei Que's words... Could it be that the organization will destroy itself?
Today's test can be considered a success, Tohru Amuro thought.
As long as the action is not too extreme, Milton really ignores the things he does.
For example, when solving a case previously, it was really no different from letting it go into the sea.
If you want to count them one by one, the "flaws" revealed by Amuro today are not just one or two.
"That's it, why can't we cooperate?"
Which country did the undercover policeman who "betrayed" him come from?
It's definitely not the Japanese police anyway.
Sighing, Toru Amuro drove the car several times around the city before the white Mazda slowly parked in the corner of a remote public parking lot.
The next second, the doors of the front and rear seats of the car were opened at the same time.
If he hadn't seen clearly who was coming in, Toru Amuro would have almost drawn his gun.
"Yo~"
On the back seat, the curly-haired man wearing sunglasses raised his hand to say hello, "Long time no see~"
"Curly-haired bastard." Toru Amuro gritted his teeth, "What are you doing here?"
"Well."
Hagiwara Kenji He already knew the other party's pseudonym from Zhu Fu Jingguang, "Xiao Anshi, what can't be said now?" The
ordinary-looking young man sitting in the passenger seat slightly apologized, "I tried my best to get rid of them."
It's a pity . , contemporaries who know each other well are not so easy to get rid of.
Toru Amuro took a deep breath and did not argue with the two people in the back row. "Where is the specific information about last night's incident?"
Zhufu Jingguang took out a document and handed it to him, "Applying to see the undercover approval requirements of the Organized Crime Countermeasures Department Time, so..."
Kuroda Hei's previous application was based on previous undercover information. This time he was on a mission, so it may take longer.
Toru Amuro: "...So?"
"Ahem."
Morofushi Kagemitsu coughed lightly, "I asked Matsumoto for a while, we just need to make sure that Itosaki is an undercover agent. It's okay if we don't know more specific information for the time being. . "
Matsumoto Xun rarely interacts with people, so he is completely unable to compete with Zhu Fu Jingguang in this regard, and he was fooled into talking in just a few words.
They are all from my own family anyway, so what if I invaded my own database a little bit!
After receiving the disapproving look from You Tongran, Zhu Fu Jingguang looked back with an unusually innocent look, "Special treatment in special circumstances." What
they could only compare with Milton was the speed of information acquisition.
This kind of ability that will reveal most of your abilities in front of him when you meet him is too cheating!
"Milton may have found out Itosaki's specific information."
Thinking of the young man who cried in the night without knowing it last night, Toru Amuro made another guess, "I suspect that Milton and Itosaki have known each other for a long time. "
Then this time can only be before Milton enters the organization." Zhu Fu Jingguang quickly connected to Xiao Tongran's brain circuit.
The rumors they found about Milton first began when the other party was twelve years old.
Assuming that Milton did not get a code name as soon as he entered the organization, this point in time can be pushed back further.
Toru Amuro thought as he did, Milton must have entered the organization after he remembered it, when his own character concept had already been initially formed.
"Probably... between the ages of seven and ten."
The time between now and now just fits Kudo Yukiko's reaction. We haven't seen her for many years. If it weren't for that very recognizable face, no one would dare to recognize her.
However, Tohru Amuro has never been able to find traces of Yukiko Kudo's interaction with someone suspected of being Milton many years ago.
Zhu Fu Jingguang didn't ask him why he suddenly reached such an age group. He thought of something and glanced at the back seat.
Matsuda Jinpei and Hagiwara Kenji were sitting in the back row with serious faces, quietly eavesdropping.
"..."
Zhu Fu Jingguang sighed, "What are you thinking about?"
If there is silence at the same time, it must be bad.
"Let me meet Milton." Matsuda Jinpei said in surprise, "Milton is the code name of 'brother'?"
"He still has something 'in storage' with me, and it makes sense for me to return it to him.
"No." Toru Amuro
decisively refused, "Milton is a person that the organization values very much. If you approach him, you will definitely enter the organization's field of vision."
Now that he has returned to Milton and is still wearing the collar, Toru Amuro is not sure whether the positioning on it has been cancelled.
Judging from the sudden phone call from BOSS to Milton last night, it's probably not the case.
When they entered the Metropolitan Police Department, they basically acted together from beginning to end. Toru Amuro found no trace of the other two people having contact with the organization.
From this point of view, there is a lot of water in Milton's original message and his hint of voluntarily staying in the organization.
Since he voluntarily stayed in the organization, how could he still be monitored and located 24 hours a day?
Toru Amuro thought again about Milton asking him to upgrade the monitoring program. Maybe the organization would also monitor Milton!
But with Milton's ability, how could he still not be able to solve these small problems after so many years?
The BOSS must have used other methods to control Milton behind the scenes!
So... Toru Amuro vaguely felt that he had touched the truth. Is this the reason why Milton has been unwilling to cooperate?
"With his ability, I can easily approach him, and he will definitely be able to see through my identity anyway."
Jinpei Matsuda proposed a solution, "Just don't contact him as a police officer on the surface."
"Matsuda!" Toru Amuro said from his thoughts. "We can't guarantee how Milton will react."
"Then let's take a gamble."
Matsuda Jinpei didn't give in, "You've always wanted to find a breakthrough, right? This can be a good one. A breakthrough."
Toru Amuro didn't say that maybe he found a breakthrough just last night.
But he won't tell anyone what happened last night.
So he could only remain silent.
But Matsuda Jinpei thought he was right. He crossed his arms and said, "Blonde bastard, if your method doesn't work, replace it with someone else."
Even though he knew that Matsuda Jinpei was deliberately provoking, Amuro Toru still wanted to be angry, "I refuse. It's the same thing when you give me the 'stored' things."
The old camera was taken to the police for inspection, but after the inspection failed, it was taken back by Matsuda Jinpei.
"Tsk." Matsuda Jinpei tilted his head and felt that his fist was a little itchy.
"Jinpei-chan, what Amuro said makes sense." Hagiwara
Kenji came out to smooth things over. "But...if the camera is very important to him, Milton will come to get it sooner or later, right?"
Matsuda Jinpei looked at Hagiwara Kenji.
Hagiwara Kenji blinked, "Maybe we can wait and wait?"
"Your idea was exposed the moment I heard it." Toru Amuro complained expressionlessly.
"Zero."
Zhu Fu Jingguang thought thoughtfully, "How about you stop seeing Milton during this period?"
It sounds like a bad idea, but it's just a discussion now anyway.
Toru Amuro glanced at Kotameran speechlessly and nodded at his neck.
"You're still here?" Zhu Fu Jingguang frowned.
"Yeah, so it's impossible for him to suddenly change his daily course of action."
"What kind of riddles are you trying to make..."
Kenji Hagihara, who didn't know the location on the collar, looked over. "It seems like the wait-and-see plan won't work?"
Toru Amuro shook his head, " I'm not sure."
The conversation ended and it was time for Toru Amuro to return to the organization base.
Thinking of something, he asked You Tongran uncertainly, "Hiro, if I wanted to beat up Gin, would it be possible for me to beat him up?"
Zhufu Jingguang: Angry?
Doubtful cat emoticon package.jpg
"Maybe...zero, when was your last psychological consultation?"
"Hiro! I have perfect scores for stress resistance!"
