Chapter 230 Post-War Analysis

Kamiya House

Conan learned from Inspector Megure that Gin and Vodka were once arrested and taken to the Metropolitan Police Department, but were then released on bail.

He beat his chest and stamped his feet in annoyance: "How could this happen! I had no idea that Gin and Vodka were arrested!"

Youya glanced at him without saying anything.

It was not Inspector Megure who took away Gin and Vodka, so he did not tell Kudo Shinichi immediately; and Vermouth was very quick in rescuing them, and by the time Conan found out, the two had already escaped to who knows where.

Yuya said calmly, "Even if you knew, what would happen? Inspector Megure also said that Gin and Vodka were arrested by mistake after they stumbled upon an illegal transaction."

"We don't have any evidence of the organization's crimes to provide to the police. The only evidence is Itakura Taku's software, and that software is still an unfinished product, so I'm afraid we can't tell anything."

Conan said without thinking: "I can be a witness!"

Yuya rolled his eyes. "Even if you show up and prove that you are Kudo Shinichi, will it be useful? Yes, the police can indeed arrest Gin and Vodka and continue investigating, but you also know that the organization is very ruthless. Back then, Pisco was sniped before he even got into the police car."

"Although Gin was arrested, it was only because he was caught by mistake when the deal was discovered. The organization may not have anticipated such a situation. When they realize that Gin has been detained, they may send someone to silence him."

"Once someone is silenced, what can the police find out when they are in the dark? Before you met the organization, had you heard any news about them? You can see that our investigation during this period has yielded almost nothing."

"Now that your identity has been exposed, I don't need to explain what will happen to you, right? You can't live under police protection forever."

Conan was silent, and couldn't help but ask: "But maybe someone will come forward and provide evidence of the organization's crimes?"

Youye nodded and shook his head: "It is indeed possible, but it is only a possibility. We can't take the risk. Not everyone is as brave as you. How many people will stand up without ensuring their own safety?"

"And have you forgotten that the previous Councillor Oki might also be one of theirs? The organization can even win over councillors, so can you guarantee that there are no one of theirs in the police force?"

Conan couldn't say anything to refute.

They don’t even know the size of their organization right now, but they have influence all over the world, so it’s not hard to imagine how huge this organization is.

There must be someone who has evidence of the organization's crimes, such as Hara Jiaming of the Tokiwa Group. Since Gin would blow up the Tokiwa Group's main computer, it means that important information must have fallen into Hara Jiaming's hands.

Unfortunately, they have all turned into ashes.

In addition, it can be seen more or less from Itakura Taku that the organization mainly uses coercion, inducement and intimidation against this type of people, threatening their own safety and even the safety of their families, and after achieving their goals, they are most likely to be silenced.

When facing the organization, Itakura Taku's only thought was to escape and flee the country. He didn't seem to have any intention of reporting to the police. I'm afraid this is also the case for most of the people who were threatened, right?

The organization will probably not contact people who are too tough if it is not sure of control over them.

This also leads to people with evidence not daring to come forward, and those who dare to come forward will not be contacted by the organization at all.

"Is all you can do to attack me? Are we working in vain?" Conan was a little depressed.

Yuya smiled slightly: "Not entirely."

Conan raised his head and looked at Yuya with anticipation in his eyes.

Yuya said slowly: "First, Gin and Vodka were arrested and taken to the Metropolitan Police Department. Although they were released on bail, they will definitely not be able to show up in the short term. They may even leave Tokyo to avoid the limelight. In this way, we will face fewer enemies."

Speaking of Toru Amuro, Miss Shiho said that he also has the aura of an organization, but I don’t know what his status is in the organization. Is it higher than Gin’s?

I don’t think so. He may just be a peripheral member, otherwise he wouldn’t be working everywhere. I guess the salary given by the organization is not enough, so he has to do part-time work to support his family?

It's a bit pitiful.

But I haven’t seen him recently. Is he not working or has he gone somewhere else on a mission?

Conan nodded in agreement. Although there was no way to get any information out of Gin, driving him away from Tokyo was also a small success.

He breathed a sigh of relief: "In this way, we can rest assured for a while."

Yuya pinched his chin in thought, "What I'm more worried about is the person who bailed Gin out of the Metropolitan Police Department."

Conan's breath suddenly lifted again, and he said with a serious look in his eyes: "That person must be from the organization, but I don't know who he is."

Yuya nodded: "That's right, and given the organization's confidentiality, I'm afraid that person will never appear in Tokyo again. It's even possible that the identity she used is fake."

"Fake identity?" Conan was stunned for a moment, and a name suddenly flashed through his mind, "Could it be, Vermouth?"

Conan looked at Miyano Shiho: "Miyano, didn't you say that Vermouth is good at disguise and voice changing? Is it possible that this person is Vermouth?"

Miyano Shiho, who had been silent the whole time, frowned and said, "I don't know."

"Forget it, there's no point in thinking too much. There will be no progress on the organization's side for the time being, but we can change direction." Youye suddenly said.

"What do you mean?" Conan looked at him puzzled.

Yuya smiled slightly: "You forgot, the person who confronted Gin at the station..."

Conan's eyes widened slightly: "You mean... Akai Shuichi?"

Then he analyzed it on his own: "Indeed, although we cannot confirm whether he is from the FBI, it is certain that he and Gin are in a hostile state."

"As the saying goes, the enemy of my enemy is my friend. Perhaps we can try to cooperate with him in fighting against the organization."

"If it really is the FBI, then don't we have a powerful ally?"

Yuya was stunned. He only mentioned a name, but Conan actually finished all his lines?

"Akai Shuichi..." Miyano Shiho frowned.

Conan's eyes moved, he looked at Miyano Shiho and asked: "Miyano, do you know Akai Shuichi?"

Miyano Shiho glanced at Yuya and saw that he had no intention of objecting, so she nodded and said, "I know him. He is indeed from the FBI."

Conan was pleasantly surprised: "Really?"

Miyano Shiho continued, "Yes, he used to go by the alias Moroboshi Dai and lurked in the organization for a long time. He once climbed to a position almost as high as Gin, but unfortunately, his identity as an undercover agent was exposed after a failed operation."

(In the original work, there are many places that explain that Haibara Ai knew Dai Moroboshi, but she didn't know that she was the same person as Shuichi Akai. However, in this life, when Yuya saved people, he used Shuichi Akai, that is, Dai Moroboshi's face. When Miyano Shiho was rescued, she thought it was Dai Moroboshi, an FBI undercover, who saved her, and then she learned the truth from Miyano Akemi that Dai Moroboshi was Shuichi Akai.

Here is a brief explanation to avoid misunderstanding.

Conan was pleasantly surprised and jumped off the sofa and paced back and forth: "In this case, maybe we can try to contact each other."
