Chapter 2839 2843 [The Transaction Between Gin and Itakura Taku]
"But..."
Vodka looked at the rows of lockers in the storage room, and suddenly a thought came to his mind: "I always feel that something is wrong."
Thinking of this, he turned the flashlight over and planned to check for hidden dangers.
As a result, he really found something unusual.
"!" Vodka looked over and saw a check for a large amount of money stuck in the crack of the iron cabinet "No. 0032".
He walked over and looked at the scene vigilantly-the iron cabinet No. 0032 was the detailed transaction location he and Itakura Taku had agreed on before. Could it be that this check was stuck here by Itakura Taku?
"Is there a fishing line behind this thing? The kind that explodes when pulled."
Staring at the check left and right, Vodka reached out and carefully took it down with the cautious action of defusing a bomb.
Luckily, he didn't feel any unnecessary pulling force during the process-it was indeed just an ordinary check stuck in the crack of the door.
"I hope the check is not coated with poison. I must remember to change a pair of gloves when I get back."
While thinking, Vodka held up the check and looked at it over and over again.
"It's a real check. And it looks a little familiar?" Soon, Vodka understood and muttered to himself, "Judging from the amount, this should be the deposit that the organization paid to Itakura Taku before. Why did this guy return the deposit again? Was he scared by Tequila and Vermouth and dared not ask for money?"
With Itakura Taku's personality, it is reasonable to do such a thing.
It is a good thing to help the organization save some money. Vodka put away the check in a good mood and looked at the cabinet again.
——Being able to clip the check here means that Itakura Taku has indeed come. Then the software that was agreed to be traded...
Vodka's eyes fell on the locker again. He took action again and opened the door with the caution of defusing a bomb.
With a creak, the door slid open, revealing a box of CDs lying quietly inside.
"This guy, did he guess that we wanted to silence him, so he didn't dare to come out to trade in person?" Vodka groaned and reached out to take the CD, but found that there were four strips of tape around the CD, firmly fixing it there.
His thick gloves couldn't touch the edge of the tape, and he couldn't remove the CD after two attempts.
Vodka had to take off his gloves and scratched with his fingernails, and finally lifted the tape head from the cabinet.
Behind the locker.
Conan listened to the rustling noise and raised the corners of his mouth silently.
"Fortunately, I knew what kind of character Vodka was, and I guessed that he would definitely come wearing gloves." Conan pushed his glasses, excited:
"It's difficult to peel off the tape when wearing gloves. In order to get the important CD, the trader must take off his gloves and touch the tape with his fingers.
"That is to say, if everything goes well, after Vodka leaves, I can remove the tape and get his fingerprints! "
...
Across from the cabinet.
While tearing off the tape, Vodka picked up the intercom and told the peripheral members around him: "Itakura Taku has been here, you watch the surroundings and don't let him slip away."
"Itakura Taku has been here?" The subordinate on the other side of the intercom was surprised, "But we have been guarding here for more than three hours, and we didn't see him enter the station at all."
Vodka: "?"
...Itakura Taku is not here, who put the check and CD here?
Just thinking about it, his skin felt cold, and a cold and hard object pressed against the back of his head.
It's a gun!!
Is Itakura Taku so capable that he can get a gun?!
Vodka's heart almost jumped out of his throat, but just when he regretted that the suicide note was not long enough, a voice suddenly came from behind him.
Gin snorted coldly: "What are you hesitating about."
Vodka: "..."
Vodka excitedly: "Brother!! "——It turned out that it was not the gunman, but his long-lost brother Gin!!
Instantly, the words "I want to be your assistant now!" came to his lips, but Vodka swallowed them rationally.
…After suffering enough from acting alone, he realized how precious those days with Gin's back were.
He must behave like a serious member of the organization, improve his impression of his brother, and get his assistant position back as soon as possible!
Just as he raised his hands and calculated in his mind, Gin asked coldly behind him: "Isn't the trading time tomorrow at 12 o'clock? Why did you suddenly change it to now? ”
Although work has become much busier without vodka, Gin is actually in a pretty good mood these days.
The reason is nothing else but the recent report - "enthusiastic passerby" Shuichi Akai kindly sent the president home with a broken car, but "accidentally" fell into the trap of the murderer, the car exploded and fell off the cliff, and the body has not been found so far.
Gin rarely has time to slowly browse the news, but this time he rarely moved his fingers and saved the detailed description of the vehicle being tampered with. While sitting in the car drinking coffee late at night, he read this pleasant reading again and again, and regretted not being able to go to the scene and shoot at the same time.
Unfortunately, the only flaw is...
"No one saw the body, which means that the troublesome guy must still be alive. Haha, it's good to be alive, but he was actually "inadvertently" misled by an elementary school student. This kind of shameful thing should really be framed and publicized. "
However, a good mood is a good mood, and Gin will never let down his guard because of this. On the contrary, countless unlucky experiences made him firmly believe in the principle that extreme joy can lead to sorrow - the more times like this, the more vigilant he must be about possible changes around him.
Therefore, as soon as he heard that Vodka had changed the time of the transaction with Itakura Taku, Gin immediately noticed this.
He flipped through the files Tequila left behind, and looked at the recent news, and suddenly noticed something - Uzo's recent appearance in the hotel, is it much more frequent than usual?
When Itakura Taku is hiding from people, he likes to move to hotels. The class of hotel he likes... seems to be similar to the hotel Uzo visited recently.
After thinking about it, Gin always felt that there was something fishy about it.
Although he doesn't want to be disturbed by some people from his work rhythm, this software is quite important to the organization. Without hesitating for too long, Gin decided to come over in person to avoid chaos.
Now, although I don't know if the matter has anything to do with Uzo... but judging from the movement of vodka, some unplanned situations have indeed occurred.
In front of the locker next to him, Vodka heard Gin's question and quickly turned around and explained in detail: "Itakura Taku said that his heart condition had worsened and he made an appointment for surgery. He wanted to push tomorrow's transaction to a month later. So I Just let him advance a day - in this way, he won't have time to do anything in the hurry. "
Gin: "..." Idiot, Taku Itakura doesn't have time for mischief, where are the others?
