Chapter 132 Turning into the Mist

The wind is passing through!

On the rooftop near Osaka Castle, Su Beixun tucked in his rustling clothes and looked up at the black helicopter that was growing bigger and bigger in the sky.

【What a quick move. 】

He bit the soft flesh on the side of his mouth unconsciously and made a light click.

It has been at most three days since the bacteria were stolen, plus the twenty-minute raid tonight. The organization has undoubtedly implemented the concept of speed being of the essence.

To be honest, Su Beixun was also caught off guard by this.

If he hadn't remembered that Conan was "involved in major events on a daily basis", and hadn't been following him around these days, he might not have been able to make it to Osaka Castle when the incident happened.

Squinting his eyes, Su Beixun looked into the distance.

Under the dim night sky, the metal parachute wings rotated to create a continuous afterimage.

The propellers turned the raindrops into even finer mist, which diffused in the rain curtain, making the dark-colored aircraft appear even more blurry.

It's not clear at all at this distance!

……

In a shaky helicopter.

Ireland was looking around warily.

Calvados beside him suddenly raised the telescope hanging around his neck.

"What's wrong?" Ireland asked quickly.

Having just escaped from an encirclement, his nerves were still tense. His brows jumped when he saw this inexplicable action.

Calvados was too anxious to answer, but after careful confirmation he replied concisely: "There's someone in that building!"

"what?"

Ireland craned his head to look in the direction of his gaze.

It is a very famous hotel in Osaka, twenty stories high. The building is wrapped with flashing yellow light strips, and the sign at the top is even colorful and rotates continuously.

It looks extremely eye-catching.

In the dim light, he squinted his eyes hard and finally saw a tiny "black ball" on the top of the building.

Ireland's eye twitched. "...You have a good eye."

Calvados explained softly: "I am just used to looking for the commanding heights in any place."

He pointed his finger at the hotel, and then at the Osaka Castle behind him: "That building is a good sniper position for Osaka Castle."

A sniper's quirk?
Ireland thought for a moment - he remembered that Cohen had a similar habit. Chianti, on the other hand, would focus more on whether he could kill someone.

He sighed with emotion, but then he was stunned!
【what happened……】

[Why do I keep thinking about those dead people tonight? ]

Ireland suddenly feels very ominous.

"It's weird."

Calvados stared at the telescope, puzzled, "It was raining outside, but he was standing on the rooftop without an umbrella... and he seemed to be looking at us."

"You think too much." Ireland shrugged, not taking it seriously: "This place is not far from Osaka Castle. It's normal to attract crowds of onlookers after making such a big noise."

Calvados shook his head: "No, he has a gun behind his back."

Ireland frowned when he heard this.

He reached out and grabbed Cavados's telescope, put it close to his eyes and looked over there.

It was only seen at the very edge of the building.

A thin figure in the light and shadow stood there, and under the cover of rain, it was blurry like a translucent ghost.

The open hem of the windbreaker dances freely in the wind!

Because of the angle of light, Ireland couldn't tell his age or appearance. He could only guess from his height and build that he should be a young man under 20 years old.

As if sensing someone was watching, the blurry figure turned its head slightly.

In the darkness, it seemed as if two flames were burning!
With just a slight change in angle, a pair of bright red pupils suddenly appeared in his sight!
Ireland was in a trance for a moment.

……

【That’s it. 】

Su Beixun stepped one foot onto the raised edge of the rooftop and calmly picked up the sniper rifle in his hand.

——He couldn’t possibly let the organization escape so easily!
The rain meandered across the scope, distorting the entire lens.

But, it doesn't matter!
Su Beixun just put the gun against his chest, raised his head and didn't even look at it!
……

Ireland, having come to his senses, of course saw this action.

He frowned and asked uneasily, "Calvados, can you hit us if you shoot from the building?"

"impossible!"

When it comes to professional issues, Calvados immediately replied: "In this kind of weather, the wind speed has a huge impact, plus the rain blocking the view, and the straight line distance is more than 2,500 meters. No one in the world can do this!"

As if worried that he didn't have enough authority, he thought for a moment and added, "Neither can Akai Shuichi!"

“…Is that so?”

Hearing the name, Ireland nodded, feeling slightly more relaxed.

But he still stared at the other person through the telescope, muttering to himself, "So what... does he want to do?"

……

In the midst of a violent storm!

The distorted fonts flying all over the sky solidified in an instant!

[Disaster] A bright white light suddenly lit up above the dim words!
The drizzle around him suddenly isolated Su Beixun!
At this moment, everything in the world is within reach!

And at this moment!

With the rumbling sound...

The copper-yellow bullet shot out from the barrel of the gun, and the shock wave that penetrated the air was left far behind!
It flew like this, across the space, and straight into the vast, unreachable dome!
……

When~~~
Suddenly, a crisp collision sound was heard above my head!

Ireland looked up subconsciously, but there was nothing wrong inside the cabin.

In a corner that he couldn't see, at the connection between the helicopter wings, metal was squeezed and deformed, and both sides were damaged.

As a result, the rod shaft slowly broke with a grinding sound!

The helicopter suddenly shook!
Ireland's eyes widened at the sudden shock.

——He found that the helicopter twisted an irregular trajectory in the air and then fell straight to the ground.

"What?!!!"

Ireland grabbed the metal handrail next to him, steadying himself in the sudden feeling of weightlessness, and shouted, "Damn it! What the hell is going on?!"

"……grown ups!"

The pilot's voice was also panicked. He pressed many buttons on the console and took the time to reply: "It's the wing! There seems to be something wrong with the wing!"

Wing?

Ireland's pupils constricted.

He suddenly remembered the sound above his head just now, and an incredible idea emerged in his mind!

But...is it really possible?!

Is it true that someone can accurately hit the wing of a helicopter from such a long distance in the rainy night? !
"Are you fucking kidding me!!!"

Ireland's eyes were bulging and he roared loudly as if to vent his anger.

But this does not change the fact that the plane is about to crash.

"No, sir!"

The driver's forehead was sweating and his face was anxious: "There is no other way!"

"What did you say?!!"

Ireland no longer cared whether it would affect driving, grabbed the other person's clothes and shouted: "Where is the parachute? Where did you put the parachute?!"

"…Sir, it's right under your seat."

Ireland pushed him aside, leaned over and fished out the black umbrella bags, handing one to Calvados.

"Let's parachute!" He took a deep breath, reached out to pick up the box containing Noah's Ark, and opened the cabin door.

The strong wind outside, carrying cold rain, swept past in an instant.

Ireland held down his clothes, which had become damp and cold, and gritted his teeth: "Damn... in this kind of weather..."

But there is no way!
He took another deep breath and jumped out of the cabin!

The water droplets around were frozen in mid-air, pushed by the wind, as if they were moving in a plane.

But Ireland was in no mood to appreciate the spectacle.

He ignored the pain on his face caused by the wind, and with great difficulty he balanced his body and pulled the parachute opening ring on the side of the bag hard.

Fortunately, the black umbrella opened successfully.

Ireland felt a tug on his shoulder, and his descent slowed down instantly.

But before he could even breathe a sigh of relief, he found himself being carried by the wind towards the police convoy.

——Although they managed to escape from the helicopter encirclement by sacrificing themselves, the convoy on the ground was still following closely behind them.

Ireland held the parachute ropes with both hands and twisted his body to change direction, but in the face of the power of nature, this struggle was obviously insignificant.

The inky earth is getting closer and closer.

Looking at the rushing river water passing by, Ireland gritted his teeth, threw away his parachute pack, and dived down!

Calvados was floating higher up in the sky, taking in the entire scene.

He took out his cell phone, edited everything that had happened into a text message, and sent it to Gin.

When I looked up again, I had been blown far away and missed the opportunity to jump into the river.

Looking at the increasing number of police vehicles, Calvados took a deep breath, pulled out a pistol from his gun bag, and held it tightly against his chin...

Bang~
The thin body shook, and a few drops of blood mixed with the rain fell to the ground.

……

The black car braked suddenly on the muddy ground.

Su Beixun quickly opened the car door and got out.

But no human figure could be seen on the undulating river surface.

"Cheer~"

He squeezed out a word from between his teeth with a gloomy face and his eyes were full of gloom.

Looking at the faint lights of the police car in the distance, Su Beixun turned around and got in the car.

soon.

The heavy rain washed away all the tire tracks on the ground.

……

It didn't take long.

Boom~ sound!
The helicopter that was hovering in the sky finally crashed to the ground.

Flames rose from the wreckage.

The senior public security officials who had been chasing after it immediately ordered their men to surround it and sent someone to bring a fire extinguisher.

"Boss!" A police officer who had gone forward to search returned and reported: "We checked, and there is only the driver's body inside, and we can't find anything valuable."

"As expected."

The senior public security official touched his receding hairline and frowned as he said, "Judging from the body on the parachute, the important personnel must have jumped out of the plane before the crash... A minor character who died on the plane naturally couldn't have been carrying any important items."

The subordinates around him certainly knew this, but they still chose to stick to their duties and leave the limelight to their superiors.

He continued, "But the body on the parachute didn't have anything in its hands... We only found the gun he used to commit suicide near him."

The senior public security official stroked his chin and said, "Didn't we find an empty parachute? There is another high-ranking member of the parachuting organization... Judging from the wind direction, he must have escaped through the water when passing through the river!"

He waved his hand and ordered: "Block the river and have people search along the river."

The subordinate next to him responded, "Yes! Boss!"

##
A busy night is over.

The public security has already surrounded and eliminated all the peripheral members who tried to break out, but unfortunately, they didn't catch a single one alive.

Although the police, who arrived a step late, were very dissatisfied, they could only do the finishing work.

As a result, the police discovered large numbers of corpses from the nearby area.

The largest number of victims were innocent people living near Osaka Castle who were caught in the crossfire between the two sides. The consequences of the last six helicopter crashes were even more disastrous.

On the contrary, in Osaka Castle, there were few tourists due to the rain, so the casualty report looked much better.

However, no matter how beautiful they are, for the relatives and friends of the deceased, there is no difference between the two.

Conan and his companions stood beside a stretcher with sad faces.

Yuantai lay there with a pale face, his clothes on his chest stained red with blood.

His eyes were wide open, but his lively pupils had already become dead silent.

Conan gritted his teeth and remained silent.

Although he was prepared, he was still stunned when he saw this scene. Mitsuhiko and Ayumi quietly wiped their tears.

However, Jiang Shouhuang is not here.

——He was taken away by the police for questioning.

Conan did not hide the fact that Jiang Mori Akira had committed murder from the police, but he also fairly described the critical situation at the time and proved that Jiang Mori Akira pulled the trigger only after the other party raised the gun.

It was a case of self-defense. Plus, Jiang Shouhuang was only seven years old, far from reaching adulthood, so the matter was not serious.

But the only question now is - where did the gun in his hand come from?

The fat boy insisted that he had picked it up in Osaka Castle.

To be honest, this kind of statement is somewhat disrespectful to the IQ of the investigators.

Those who carry guns in Osaka Castle are all armed personnel. Judging from their style, would they be so careless as to lose their service guns and have them picked up by you?

But there was no way. Although the suspicion was very obvious, the police could only let the case go after the legal team hired by Jiang Shou Group took action.

After the questioning, Jiang Shouhuang was taken away by people arranged by the Jiang Shou Group.

Conan looked at his receding back and subconsciously clenched his fists.

"What's wrong? You look weird."

A loud voice came from beside him.

Hattori squatted down and touched his chin, looking at Conan in amazement: "There is a hint of reluctance in the anger, and even a hint of scruple... I say, Kudo, is there something wrong with that kid?"

"...Hattori..."

Conan turned his head and saw the person coming. He smiled bitterly, glanced at his bleeding arm, frowned and asked, "Are you okay?"

"Ah~!"

Hattori moved his arm and said, "It's just a superficial wound. It looks like it's bleeding a lot because of the soaking in water, but it's actually not serious at all."

"In comparison..." He paused and looked at Yuantai's body.

Conan also looked gloomy.

Not wanting his friend to continue being negative, Hattori changed the subject and asked, "By the way, you still haven't told me what happened to that kid?"

He thought for a moment and said, "Well, as I remember... his name is Jiang Shouhuang, right?"

Conan nodded.

He looked up at the sky where there was no rain anymore.

But the thick dark clouds still blocked the moonlight completely. Not even a bit of light could get through, making it so oppressive that it was hard to breathe.

He rubbed his temple tiredly and said with a wry smile: "Hattori, actually, I feel really frustrated right now."

"what?"

Hattori's expression froze when he heard this.

Realizing the seriousness of the problem, he asked seriously, "Kudo, what happened?"

"That's not something you would say!"
