Chapter 266 Operation Canceled
Bourbon glanced at his watch: "Isn't the target here yet?"
"No." Calvados looked calmer than Bourbon, but a hint of impatience still flashed across his sinister eyes.
Nobushige leaned against the car window, closed his eyes and meditated, holding the adjusted sniper rifle in his arms.
"Then I'll go to the bathroom first." After Bourbon said this, he left the car without waiting for his companion's reply.
Perhaps disturbed by the sound of his closing the door, Nobuhiro raised his eyes slightly and glanced in the direction Bourbon left, but he didn't say anything and quickly closed his eyes again.
Zero should be anxious now, after all, Mescal did not change the location of the operation as he originally planned.
But even if he couldn't save Yushi Ishikawa this time, Zero would never put himself at risk of his identity being exposed. He still knew the importance of these things.
In this case, Nobushige no longer intends to talk to anyone. Whatever, as long as it doesn't affect his mission, Zero can do whatever he wants.
Bourbon came back during the normal time to go to the bathroom, and there were even water stains on his hands.
Wow, what a weird detail.
"Not here yet?" Bourbon couldn't help but ask again.
This time Calvados obviously couldn't sit still.
"Let me ask." After that, he quickly picked up his mobile phone and called the peripheral members who were ambushing at the other end of the cross-sea bridge. "Okay, I understand."
Nobushige asked with his eyes.
"When I called him, he was preparing to report that there was a commercial convoy departing from the city hall and was approaching point A1." Calvados paused and said uncertainly, "But it's not yet possible to tell whether the target is among them. "
Nobuhiro sat up straight and said, "There should be no problem. Let's go, it's time to go to work."
The latter words were addressed to Bourbon, who was acting as the driver. Bourbon did not hesitate and immediately started the car and drove back to Osaka.
Nobushige rolled down the car window and placed the sniper rifle on the window. While testing the scope, he reminded someone in front: "Drive more carefully."
Bourbon's hand on the steering wheel froze, and he seriously suspected that Mescal had seen through him again.
This kind of sniping opportunity is very difficult. The road conditions are complicated and no one knows whether they will hit a stone or brake at the moment of sniping. Feng Gurei originally planned to use this excuse to hinder Mescal's sniper attack, but he didn't expect to be beaten before setting off.
Twice in a row, is this really a coincidence? ?
However, Nobuhiro really didn't think it was that complicated. He simply felt that Zero was too casual in driving, and he was a little worried about not being able to hold the gun steady. Who knew someone had so many dramas that it would be impossible to finish them all?
On the other side, Fangtani Rei, who thought he might be seen through, didn't dare to do such a thing too blatantly, but it was impossible for him to give up just like that. Just do it quietly and steadily, so that Mescal doesn't get a hold of it.
"Appeared."
As soon as the convoy appeared a little shadow at the far end of the opposite road, Nobushige had already announced the distance in a cold voice.
"Two thousand meters."
"One thousand meters."
"Five hundred meters."
Xinfan recited silently in his heart. The speed of the other party is around 100 kilometers per hour, and their speed is slower, maintaining 80 kilometers per hour. If it is 500 meters, it will be ten seconds later...
His finger was already on the trigger, and he would press it as soon as Calvados informed him of the target's location.
However……
Until the entire convoy passed them safely, Calvados's voice did not sound.
Nobushige still maintained his aiming posture, but Bourbon had already asked in confusion: "What's going on?"
Calvados's face was unusually stiff, and a thin layer of sweat broke out in his hand holding the sniper rifle.
Seeing Calvados's delay in answering, Nobushige put down his gun and looked over.
His face was cold, and there was still no emotion in his eyes: "What's going on?"
Bourbon asked the same question out of pure curiosity, but when Mezcal spoke it, there was a cold chill, as if the low pressure before a storm was about to sweep over him instantly.
Bourbon glanced at him with a vague fear, and before Mescal noticed it, he set his sights on Calvados again.
He hadn't done anything yet, but the mission had failed inexplicably. For a moment, Feng Gu Zero even suspected that Calvados was also an undercover agent. But he quickly denied it. How could an undercover agent be stupid enough to make such an obvious mistake?
In particular, the only agency that could think of preventing the assassination of the mayor of Osaka was the public security. Rei Furitani really didn't want his colleagues to be so incompetent.
"There was no Yushi Ishikawa in that team," Calvados finally explained. But his tone was not sure, because the speed of the car was too fast, and he had no chance to check it a second time.
Nobuhiro restrained his outward aura, and he didn't look angry at all: "It doesn't matter, we still have another chance.
“Bourbon, find a parking lot nearby.
"Calvados, contact the surrounding members immediately and go to point B2 of the airport to be on standby."
Two orders were issued in succession, and the air in the car became extremely quiet. Although there was no fluctuation in Mezcal's voice, neither Calvados nor Bourbon wisely planned to get into trouble with him at this time.
Nobushige just sat quietly in the back seat, his eyes deep and serious.
However, in fact, he was laughing so hard in his heart!
I really want to take a picture of Zero's current expression with my mobile phone. It will definitely be enough for him to laugh for a year.
Nobushige didn't expect that one day his character would be so bad that he would think about Zheng Ling and Calvados at the critical moment of the mission.
This is probably called bottoming out.
He used to be a person with a relatively reserved and gentle personality. After engaging in a special profession, he became accustomed to hiding himself behind a perfect mask, carefully protecting himself and those around him. He rarely makes jokes and is rarely frightened by his friends' pranks.
However, after experiencing the incident of suspended animation, he was basically reborn. While continuing his mission that had never changed, some things also quietly changed.
However, it is also possible that he simply wanted to see a more realistic reaction on Fangya Rei's face, and the same was true for Calvados. No member of the organization dared to say that he was not tired of living, but it was more difficult to be undercover.
Of course...except maybe Gin, after all, he is a workaholic who enjoys working overtime.
Thinking of this, Nobushige sent another email to Gin:
[Mezcal: We have encountered a little trouble here. If the operation fails tonight, do we still want to continue? 】
However, before his email was sent, he received Gin's email first.
[Gin: I just received information that Yushi Ishikawa temporarily canceled the pick-up trip. The plan is cancelled, please come back. 】
Sure enough, in addition to his and Bourbon's respective intelligence channels, even Gin who was far away in Tokyo also used his own intelligence network to pay close attention to this mission.
Tsk tsk, even though it was said that Mescal was in charge, Gin still couldn't completely rest assured.
I can't believe I just completed the outline yesterday... Qingshan updated it to Chapter 1063. Rum's identity is becoming more and more confusing. I heard that he has stopped publishing again? But I have finished writing the outline, and I have basically filled in all the holes in Qingshan (I hope he won’t suddenly appear a new character and unlock a new copy). Now... I can only sit back and wait to be slapped in the face by Qingshan. So the original plot involved in this book ends at 1063, okay? The author is not responsible for the BUG caused by the plot after 1063. (I will refer to "Zero's Daily Life" and "Police Academy Chapter" that are not written by Aoyama, but everything shall be based on the "Detective Conan" comics)
