Conan: The Magician of the End of the Century

Chapter 69 Challenge
"'One billion yen robbery'? It's really sudden..." Seeing the headlines in the newspaper, Ishino, who was leaning on the sofa, muttered to himself.

As an important event in the main line of Ke Xue's world, and the direct cause of Hui Yuanai's defection, Ishino knows the meaning of this news very well.

Haibara Ai can be regarded as a character that Ishino likes quite a lot in Conan's story. She is intelligent, sensitive, cold on the outside and hot on the inside, but because of her sad past, she chooses to lock her heart tightly because she is afraid of hurting the people around her.

For Haibara Ai, Ishino's affection for her is probably mostly affectionate. Compared with other members of the protagonist group who had a happy childhood, the growth experience given to her by this world can be described as cruel.

Although Ishino doesn't have the heart of a virgin, it is natural to want to make his favorite character happier, so in the original plan, Miyano Akemi was also on Ishino's arrest list.

On the other hand, Haibara Ai, as the scientific research genius of the winery, also mastered some of the secrets of APTX4869. If he can be included in his own camp, it will be a very powerful help, so saving Miyano Akemi will become very important.

Since I saw the robbery that happened yesterday in the morning paper, it means that Gin Jiu will get rid of Miyano Akemi by this evening at the latest, so the time left for me is less than ten hours at most.

Now I not only don't know the whereabouts of Miyano Akemi, but I don't even know the location of the warehouse where the other party and Gin Jiu agreed to meet. It is very difficult to save the other party before the sun goes down.

Although I know the relationship between Gin and the Kasaka family, but I can't just make a phone call and ask him to let Miyano Akemi go...

Thinking of this, Ishino called Yokosuka Castle with an attitude of trying his luck. After confirming with the housekeeper Sawabe that Natsumi was not with Grandma Yoko, he connected the phone in Yoko's bedroom and told her about made his own plans.

After learning that Grandma Yoko didn't have the contact information of Qin Jiu and others, Shi Ye didn't think about those unrealistic plans, and began to ask the other party for advice on how to stop Qin Jiu.

After listening to Shi Ye mentioning what Qin Jiu was about to do, Yoko was silent for a moment, and said helplessly, "Since that kid, Ah Zhen, has already made such a decision, there must be a reason for him to do so, and he wants to persuade him directly. It's not realistic for him to give up."

"But it's not like there's no chance at all." Yoko sorted out her thoughts, and said to Ishino seriously: "If you can prove to him that the path you chose is correct, and that you have the strength to keep going, you should make him back down."

"Prove yourself... I see, grandma." From Yoko's words, Ishino understood what the other party wanted to express.

Just as he has the belief of protecting his family, Gin is also fighting for the belief of protecting the Kasaka family. He has his own code of conduct.

When a conflict arises between two parties in the course of actions to achieve the ultimate goal, then try to prove to the other party that there can be a solution that will cause no loss to the interests of both parties, or even achieve a win-win situation.

After thinking about this, a bold plan gradually took shape in Shi Ye's mind. At the same time, this will also be the biggest challenge he has faced so far, and he must go all out.

After thinking again and again, Ishino made a request to Yoko on the phone: "Grandma, can you lend me the housekeeper Zebe for a while..."

……

That afternoon, Conan realized that the suspect Hirota Masami was in danger of being silenced, so he left the Mori Detective Agency alone, and used a transformation device to disguise the voice of Mori Kogoro to deceive the address of Hirota Masami from Police Officer Megure.

At this time, he was stepping on a solar-powered skateboard, watching the navigation on the multifunctional glasses and rushing to his destination with all his attention, but he didn't realize that there was a figure following him all the time...

More than ten minutes later, Conan arrived at the apartment where Hirota Masami was staying. After finding the spare key hidden under the flowerpot outside the door, Conan sneaked into the house.

Soon, he found a loose socket behind the desk, and found a key to the safe inside, speculating that the stolen one billion yen was hidden in the safe corresponding to the key.

But before Conan was happy, Hirota Masami suddenly appeared behind him, slashing the back of his neck with a hand knife, making him dizzy and fell to the ground, and the key in his hand was also taken away by the other party.

Seeing the other party leave the room, Conan struggled to get up and catch up, but suddenly a big hand covered his mouth with a wet wipe from behind, and then his consciousness fell into darkness...

After Ishino stunned Conan, he took the multifunctional glasses and the transmitter from him, then turned and left the room.

That's right, Ishino was the one who followed Conan all the way, relying on the stealth and tracking skills he learned from Black Feather Pirates, combined with his super strong foot strength, he tracked all the way here.

Since I don't know the whereabouts of Miyano Akemi, it is enough to follow the Shinigami elementary school student who knows where she is, so after arranging everything, Ishino went to the gate of the Mori Detective Agency and waited for the reckless Conan to come out.

Arriving at the door, Ishino accurately threw the transmitter from the fifth floor onto Miyano Akemi's car, and immediately called the housekeeper Sawabe to inform him of his location.

Five minutes later, Steward Sawabe sped up in a taxi that could be seen everywhere. Without slowing down at all, he made a drift and turned and stopped in front of Ishino.

With this operation, the corners of Ishino's eyes twitched, and then he saw the earthy faces of the other two people sitting in the back row, and he couldn't help feeling a little uneasy about the ride experience afterwards.

After getting into the passenger seat, Ishino turned on the radar tracking function on Conan's glasses, handed the glasses to Butler Sawabe, and asked him to catch up with Miyano Akemi's car as soon as possible.

After the housekeeper Sawabe took the glasses, he inspected them and put them on his face. After confirming that there was no problem, he gestured OK to Ishino, and then kicked the accelerator and rushed out.

Along the way, Shi Ye saw that the ordinary taxi he was riding in made all kinds of unimaginable drifting movements, passing through various deserted alleys at lightning speed, just like the drag racing scenes in stunt movies.

When Ishino asked where Steward Sawabe learned his driving skills, the other party just smiled slightly and said, "Haha, I once competed with an AE86 in Qiu Mingshan, and I learned some skills, but they are not worth mentioning. That's all."

After Ishino was speechless for a while, Butler Sawabe finally led them to catch up with Miyano Akemi's car.

After seeing the other party driving into a certain port warehouse area from a distance, the group also drove the taxi to the side door of the warehouse area, suppressing the churning stomach acid in their bodies, and walked towards the warehouse where the other party parked from the side door.
