Chapter 117 Detective Apprentice Amuro Tooru
Gin extinguished the half-smoked cigarette, cursing Tequila as a useless piece of trash. He then took out his laptop to search for related news. At this point, all they knew was that an explosion had occurred during the call, and they promptly evacuated.
After cleaning up the stronghold he somewhat liked, he and Vodka hurriedly left, unaware of what exactly happened.
Enter "[Full Paradise New Work Launch Event]" and a series of search results will pop up instantly.
Gin randomly picked the one with the highest number of likes and quickly figured out the cause and effect.
Just as he had guessed, Hideaki Nakajima, who stole the information and sold it to them, didn't have the guts to take the money and not do the job, let alone use a bomb to kill someone and cover it up.
Tequila was simply caught up in a crime of passion, triggering the death trap originally prepared for Hideaki Nakajima.
Gin rubbed his temples, looking slightly tired.
The peripheral members recruited from Tokyo are undoubtedly capable, but the problem is that they are also easily drawn into various cases.
They were either killed or identified as suspects, and then silenced by other members of the organization to prevent information leaks.
In terms of the consumption of peripheral members, Tokyo is definitely the highest proportionally.
However, no one expected that one day, even a codenamed official member, or a combat member of the action team, would perish inside.
But this is almost unavoidable. Who among those who cooperate with them, whether they are ordinary people with some ability, wealthy and powerful businessmen, or even some high-ranking officials, is clean?
Being killed for any reason is a risk that can be completely foreseen.
"What a piece of trash."
When Gin saw certain details, he couldn't help but make a sarcastic remark.
The briefcase that Tequila got didn't match the key he had. At times like this, one should be extremely cautious. Not to mention, the bag wasn't even locked, yet this idiot just opened it and was blown up cleanly, without even leaving a complete corpse.
But that's fine too. With that kind of personality, you never know when he might make an irreparable mistake due to carelessness. This way, it saves us the trouble of silencing him.
Gin, who often felt anxious due to a lack of manpower, comforted himself and decided to kill some rats to relieve stress.
After giving an address, Vodka stepped on the gas and sped off.
At the Akutagawa Detective Agency, looking at the resume in his hand and Amuro Tooru sitting upright opposite him, Akutagawa Hiko fell silent for a moment.
"Mr. Amuro, if I understand correctly, you want to become an apprentice at my firm?"
Akutagawa Hiko was greatly surprised, never expecting that this "King of Part-Time Jobs" would actually come here to apply for a job, wanting to become a detective apprentice.
What Amuro Tooru discovered was unknown to Akutagawa Hiko. To make things more interesting, he often showed abnormal behavior, so it was perfectly normal for this undercover police officer to make some discoveries.
I just don't know which floor he's on right now.
But it doesn't matter. With martial prowess surpassing that of this world, no matter what, someone who started out at the atmospheric level won't mess things up.
Amuro Tooru nodded, his demeanor gentle and polite: "To be honest, I've always dreamed of becoming a detective, but I've never had the chance. I feel I'm perfectly capable of being a detective apprentice."
Akutagawa carefully examined the detailed resume that highlighted his strengths, knowing that for this dark-skinned, blond man, the resume was still somewhat modest.
The title of "decathlon" is not just a figure of speech; at least, skills like shooting and hand-to-hand combat were not listed.
However, the skills mentioned above alone are already hard to refuse.
The problem was that Akutagawa put down his resume, stared intently at Amuro Tooru's completely composed face, and asked, "I haven't posted any job advertisements for apprentices, so why did you choose my detective agency?"
Amuro Tooru looked on with admiration and longing: "I've heard many stories about you. I even made a clipping about the cases you've solved. Your speed and ability in solving cases are truly remarkable. I think I can learn a lot more by following you."
As he spoke, Amuro Tooru took out a newspaper clipping from his bag. It was indeed full of cases solved by Akutagawa Hiko.
Every single one that was reported on fell from grace.
However, Akutagawa Hiko could tell that this clipping was actually made in one night, rather than accumulated little by little.
Faced with Akutagawa's bluntness, Amuro Tooru's eyes flickered. He knew that hearsay could never compare to firsthand experience, and his observational skills alone far surpassed those of many self-proclaimed experts.
Amuro Tooru is someone who can infiltrate the Black Organization for a long time and still maintain a high status while being a suspect. It's normal for him to have plans A, B, C, D, E, F, G, etc. prepared on a daily basis.
"That's absolutely true. I had only heard about you before, but after learning more about you, I was completely impressed. That's why I rushed here to learn from you."
Akutagawa Hiko was deeply impressed by Amuro Tooru's ability to lie without batting an eye. Although he had no intention of recruiting anyone, he still chose to keep Amuro Tooru.
Watching Amuro Tooru drive away in his Mazda, Akutagawa Hiko stroked his chin, pondering how to make the most of a talent who had infiltrated the Black Organization from the Japanese Public Security Bureau.
First of all, the most convenient plan is to set fire to the winery and the zoo, which would be much easier to implement, since Amuro Tooru will be stationed at the Akutagawa Detective Agency starting tomorrow.
"Speaking of which, the frequency with which Kid commits crimes is pitifully low compared to the frequency with which Conan triggers cases."
After lamenting Kaito Kuroba's inefficiency, Hiko Akutagawa considered whether he should go to Ekoda, which wasn't too far from Beika Town, to urge him on.
Amuro Tooru returned to his Trojan Horse apartment and mentally reviewed his meeting with Akutagawa Hiko, concluding that the death of the peripheral member was probably not related to the rising star detective.
However, suspicion cannot be completely ruled out.
Many things are intricately connected, and the detective stands right in the center of a spiderweb woven from countless incomprehensible threads.
He didn't believe the detective had nothing to do with these things; at the very least, this person must know something.
With a ding-dong sound, the phone emitted a special notification tone, the one provided by the Black Organization.
Upon seeing the email, Amuro Tooru's gaze sharpened.
Tequila is dead? How did she die? Can we have a remake, so Gin or one of the other executives dies too?
