Chapter 885 Epcot Is About to Rise
Soon Epcot was in the parking lot.
There were seven or eight identical funeral cars parked here, but only one of them had steam coming out of the hood.
Epcott got out of the car, walked around the funeral car, and judged where the people in the funeral car were based on the footprints on the ground and the direction of the surrounding weeds.
She quickly approached the two-story building, but did not go in directly through the main door. She looked around and finally chose the small window of the bathroom at the back.
This building was used for cremating corpses, but Epcott knew very well that if the "corpse" that was transported was really Kiel, neither the police nor the FBI would really cremate her.
Epcott walked lightly and walked from room to room, and soon she stopped in front of one of the offices.
Because someone was talking inside the door, the voice was very low, and she had to stick to the door to hear it vaguely. Regardless of whether this action looks good or not, it is not very safe from an anti-reconnaissance perspective.
Epcott dug in his pocket, pulled out something like a bug, and stuck it on the door. This little thing can not only eavesdrop, but also process the eavesdropped audio, reduce noise, and clearly distinguish how many people are talking inside.
Almost as soon as he put on the headphones, Epcot heard important information.
"Mr. Akai, she has been brought here. It is not suitable to stay here for a long time. We should transfer her to Aido Central Hospital."
Well, Mr. Akai, he should be referring to Shuichi Akai, right?
Epcott had just joined the organization not long ago, and she had no impression of Shuichi Akai at all. She had only heard descriptions of Shuichi Akai from others, and knew that he seemed to be a very powerful man.
In the room across from Epcot, Hide Akai stood expressionless by the window. In front of him was an FBI agent stationed in Japan.
"The cremation process is not that fast, please wait for a while." Shuichi Akai said, reaching out to the detective and gesturing for him to hand over the things to him.
The agent immediately took out an envelope and handed it to Shuichi Akai.
Shuichi Akai opened the envelope and poured out the contents - it was a pocket watch.
Akai Shuichi threw the pocket watch to the agent, and then nodded to the agent. The detective immediately became serious, walked to the door, and opened the door.
Epcott was startled by his sudden behavior. Fortunately, she was already hiding at the corner of the corridor and could not see her from the FBI's position.
Fortunately, she was careful and didn't stick to the door to eavesdrop, otherwise she would have been discovered by the FBI by now.
As expected of Shuichi Akai.
The detective looked around, nodded to Akai Hide and said, "No one. It seems they are not as powerful as Mr. Akai said."
Akai Shuichi shook his head: "No, the less pressure we have, the more dangerous the situation at the National Medical Research Center is. I suspect that the organization has seen through our plan and has not been fooled."
Well, fooled?
"Time." Akai Shuichi whispered.
The detective quickly took out his pocket watch and looked at it carefully. Akai Shuichi frowned slightly, as if he was very dissatisfied with his subordinates for checking the time so slowly. He directly reached out and took the pocket watch.
"Time is running out. Contact the police and ask them to be careful."
After hearing this, Epcott probably understood the plan of the FBI and the police. They deliberately showed their flaws and made it look like they were transferring Kiel, but in fact Kiel was still staying at the National Medical Research Center.
Tsk, no wonder Mescal asked her not to think about Kil's problem, and she really couldn't see Kil.
After thinking about the situation at the National Medical Research Center, Epcott decided to cooperate with Gin and the others, deliberately making some noise here to make the FBI think that they had really been fooled.
Thinking clearly, Epcott climbed out of the corridor window again and decided to act like he had just chased him here.
When Akai Shuichi heard the movement, his expression immediately became solemn. He threw his pocket watch aside and quickly chased after him.
After dealing with the FBI for a long time, Epcot returned to his original position.
A flash of disdain flashed in her eyes.
The FBI's reaction and Akai Shuichi's performance were different from her imagination. Maybe they assisted the police to limit Akai Shuichi's abilities. In short, if that was the case, Akai Shuichi could not live up to the name of silver bullet.
Epcott was about to leave, but her eyes fell on the pocket watch on the table.
Um? If I remember correctly, Shuichi Akai seemed to have only used this pocket watch to read the time before, right?
The image of Akai Shuichi's thumb groping for the dial suddenly appeared in her mind, and Epcot's eyes lit up.
Good guy, an ordinary mission could actually allow her to get Akai Shuichi's fingerprints! It would be better if the pocket watch still leaves skin fragments, and then all the DNA and fingerprint information will be available.
Although this cannot catch Shuichi Akai, it is at least a breakthrough for the organization. In particular, it would allow Epcot to quickly prove its worth.
Epcott picked up the pocket watch in a plastic bag and quickly retreated from the funeral home.
…
Seeing Conan and Hondo Eiyu sitting in Dr. Agasa's Beetle quickly leaving the National Medical Research Center, Nobushige nodded with satisfaction.
Very good, Akai Shuichi feels at ease when doing things.
After discovering Conan's presence, Nobushige told Akai Shuichi about the incident, and Akai Shuichi entrusted Judy to come forward and lead Conan to the funeral parlor. The FBI has always been in charge of the funeral home, and Conan won't feel cheated after he passes there. At most, he just won't be able to see Mizuno Reina.
But it doesn't matter whether Conan sees Reina Mizuna or not. Nobuhiro just hopes that he won't disturb his plan. It's a pity that the Conan kids suddenly found themselves unable to fight on the front line. This psychological gap will probably take some time to recover.
…
The coffee shop opposite the National Medical Research Center was full of people.
The waiter walked towards the window with a tray: "Sir, coffee for you two."
The gentleman she was talking about stiffened for a moment, but he still took the coffee without saying anything.
"Girls should look like girls." The little girl with blond hair opposite him mocked unceremoniously, "Otherwise, don't blame others for thinking you are a boy."
The person who was thought to be a boy was actually a girl who was still in high school. She came from a very remarkable family - the Akai family, a family of five with three surnames.
"You don't seem to have the right to dislike me!" Sera Masaki curled her lips, and finally suppressed the urge to pull her mother's hair.
Sera Marie ignored her, she picked up the coffee and sipped it gracefully.
Seeing this, Masumi Sera complained angrily: "So does my second brother. I have called him seven or eight times, but he didn't answer any of them!!"
