The truth will eventually come out. Professor Agasa, Tooru Amuro, and the other tour group were caught in the crossfire. Although they initially mistook Akemi Miyano for Ai Haibara, who had contacted them online, Conan quickly clarified the situation for them.
Ai Haibara is the elementary school student being held in Akemi Miyano's arms, not the older sister Akemi Miyano they mistakenly identified as.
"You mean this elementary school student is chatting with me online about inventions, software, biology, medicine, and pharmaceuticals—that's Ai Haibara?"
After hearing Conan's words, it was now Professor Agasa's turn to be shocked.
"That's right, Doctor, Ai Haibara is my Shin-chan classmate, we're in the same class."
The woman you mistook for Ai Haibara is Ai Haibara's older sister, Satomi Haibara. She's now Jiang Cheng's new girlfriend, and Jiang Cheng has already changed her name to Jiang Cheng Satomi.
"She's just a primary school student, and she's already so amazing..."
After suffering such a huge blow, Professor Agasa fell into a daze, muttering to himself.
Chapter 211 Amuro Tooru, just suffer a little and help Ai overcome her little habit of being afraid of the Black Organization executives.
Since encountering Amuro Tooru, a fake sake from the brewery, who also joined this tour group, Ai Haibara has been filled with regret.
Especially considering that the Dark Night Duke virus was developed by the organization, the appearance of such a computer virus outside would definitely attract the organization's attention. It was too reckless of me to rush over to find this virus without thinking.
Also, when I was chatting with Professor Agasa online, I got carried away and talked too much, revealing my true abilities. Now that my true self has been exposed, it's quite troublesome.
Of course, the most important thing is my current state. I know that Amuro Tooru is a public security officer and that he is a fake drinker, so why can't I control myself and why do I keep trembling and feeling scared when I'm around him?
As Ai Haibara was constantly blaming herself, her knowledge and her current appearance surprised Conan, Professor Agasa, Tooru Amuro, and others, each of them having many questions.
Of course, Conan is closest to the truth. He has always suspected that Ai Haibara was shrunk by taking the same drug as him, Shiho Miyano. However, Jiang Chengbei and the other two have always denied it and just kept making excuses.
If Ai Haibara truly possesses dual doctorates in biology and medicine, as the professor claims, then she must have shrunk after taking drug A, and there's a 99% chance she's the same person who disappeared and hasn't reappeared since.
Conan felt that his deductions were pretty accurate, but he couldn't figure out why Ai Haibara was trembling and seemed very scared today.
If we consider that she and her sister were traitors to the distillery, the biggest reason for her fear is that she may have encountered a distillery executive.
If there really are distillery executives here, who would they be?
Thinking of this, Conan, with a scrutinizing gaze, swept over each member of the Izu tour group:
28-year-old bank clerk Shiro Konno, 32-year-old computer programmer Tokio Ehara, a 74-year-old man, Genichiro Kaneshiro, the owner of a computer company, and his personal butler, Shizue Hayashi, 56 years old.
There's also Hideko Kamijo, the 29-year-old president of a computer company, and the remaining couple are Satoshi Maeda, a 30-year-old former karate athlete and current university teaching assistant, and his girlfriend Akiko Sayama, a 24-year-old high school math teacher.
There are a total of 7 suspects, but it is unknown which of them is a manager at the winery.
Now, with myself and Jiang Chengbei, two powerful superhumans, plus a police officer named Amuro Tooru whose abilities are so-so, as long as we find the brewery executive among them, we, the two superhumans and the police officer underling, are quite confident that we can capture him.
After thinking about all this, Conan tugged at Jiang Chengbei and then gestured for Jiang Chengbei and the Miyano sisters to go aside and whisper to each other.
After taking a few steps, Conan looked at the seven suspects and whispered:
"Haibara, what's wrong? Why do you look so scared? Is there someone here that you're afraid of?"
Seeing that Haibara didn't answer, and that even after Jiang Chengbei and Miyano Akemi encouraged and comforted her, there was no improvement, Conan immediately voiced his suspicions:
"Haibara, are you so scared because you've discovered someone? Are there codenamed members from the brewery here?"
Who is he? Just tell me, and with Jiang Cheng's and my abilities, we can definitely catch him!
"The Blacksmith Company? A member of the Blacksmith Company?" Amuro Tooru, who had secretly come to eavesdrop on Conan's conversation, was shocked.
Just now, Amuro Tooru, having overheard so many secrets from the somewhat familiar-looking beauty Ai Haibara, Professor Agasa, and Conan, saw Conan sneaking around and whispering to Jiang Chengbei and the others, so he immediately followed.
He gets carried away when he encounters members of the Black Organization, and he doesn't usually pay attention to what's behind him. At the same time, his attention was focused on the seven suspects that Conan mistook for members of the Black Organization. So, even though Amuro Tooru also had the Black Organization's low-key aura, Conan didn't notice him quietly following him.
Amuro Tooru, who had secretly followed, was also surprised when he overheard the words "Burjourney" and "Burjourney members".
He glanced at Jiang Chengbei in surprise. In his mind, Tennessee and Jiang Chengbei were most likely in the same organization, the CIA. Since Tennessee knew his identity in the organization, Jiang Chengbei should also most likely know it.
Now that Conan has mentioned the distillery, he's very likely aware of the organization's existence, since their codenames are all names of alcoholic beverages.
However, even a 7-year-old like Conan knew about the organization's existence. Amuro Tooru was shocked by Jiang Chengbei's big mouth, actually telling such a thing to an elementary school student.
But after a moment of shock, Amuro Tooru remembered that Conan had followed him to chase Tennessee and hadn't shown any fear even after being shot by Tennessee. Especially since this elementary school student had kicked a soccer ball at Tennessee before Tennessee fired the shot. Recalling his behavior, Amuro Tooru realized that it wasn't surprising that Conan knew about the organization.
In short, she is an amazing child. Just like Professor Agasa said, Ai Haibara, this little girl, has a doctor's level of knowledge. There's nothing strange about child prodigies.
Amuro Tooru's jumpy behavior finally caught Conan's attention. Seeing Amuro Tooru right next to him, he exclaimed in surprise:
What are you doing here? Were you eavesdropping on my conversation?
Seeing Amuro Tooru's awkward smile, Conan could only take a deep breath and compromise:
"Fine, so be it if you heard it. Anyway, I have something to tell you, policeman."
Based on my deduction, there is one or more members of a winery with the code name "wine" in our tour group. They are all core criminals of a terrorist organization who have committed numerous terrorist acts.
This time, we'll work together to find them among the seven people on the other side and arrest them.
Upon hearing Conan's words, Amuro Tooru asked in shock, "Are there members of the organization among those seven people? How did you know?"
Conan glanced at the frightened Ai Haibara, not intending to betray her, and said to Tooru Amuro:
"How I know is none of your business. I can deduce that you're a police officer, and I can deduce that there are members of the distillery among these people as well."
After hearing Conan's words, Amuro Tooru looked suspiciously at the seemingly ordinary members of the tour group, wondering to himself:
They don't look like it. Could it be that this abnormal child really could guess that there is an organization member hidden among us, but he just didn't guess it was himself and mistook these 7 people for the real target?
Seeing Amuro Tooru hesitate, Conan stopped trying to persuade him. In any case, among these people, the strongest fighters were Jiang Chengbei and himself. This policeman was just an extra, and ignoring him wouldn't be a big problem.
If it weren't for the previous encounters with members of the distillery, where he could only drive them away and had no ability to capture them, he wouldn't need Jiang Chengbei's help now.
So Conan said to Jiang Chengbei, "Jiang Cheng, can you help me this time?"
I'll take care of finding the people, and then we'll work together to arrest this distillery executive. What do you think?
With Amuro Tooru here, Jiang Chengbei probably won't pull out a pistol and ask him to shoot and kill the distillery executive as a pledge of loyalty, right?
Having considered this, Conan dares to ask Jiang Chengbei for help now, unlike the previous times when Jiang Chengbei pulled out a pistol and asked him to kill someone as a token of loyalty when Conan mentioned joining forces with Jiang Chengbei and his brothers to deal with the distillery.
After hearing Conan's request, Jiang Chengbei glanced at Amuro Tooru, and under Conan's hopeful gaze, nodded seriously:
"No problem, Conan. This is what you asked for, so I'll help you this once and for all and arrest this executive from the distillery."
After saying this, under Conan's excited gaze, Jiang Chengbei patted Amuro Tooru on the shoulder, then stretched out his fist and punched Amuro Tooru.
With Jiang Chengbei's pat on the shoulder as a cue, Amuro Tooru, who was highly skilled in combat, immediately reacted, dodged Jiang Chengbei's punch, and began fighting with Jiang Chengbei.
"Jiang Chengbei, what are you doing? Why did you hit me?"
"Conan told me to arrest the executives of the distillery. I was just doing this for someone else. If you want revenge, go find Conan later."
Seeing Jiang Chengbei and Amuro Tooru suddenly start fighting, and hearing Jiang Chengbei's words, Conan's eyes widened in shock!
He only asked Jiang Chengbei to help arrest the distillery officials; he didn't ask him to assault or beat the police!
No, could it be... that seemingly respectable guy Amuro Tooru isn't actually a policeman? Is his real identity a liquor company executive, or an undercover agent infiltrated into the Public Security Bureau?
"Conan, actually, the codenamed member of the Black Organization isn't that great. Watch me flatten him with one punch, you don't need to be afraid!"
In close combat, Jiang Chengbei's greatest strength lies in his maxed-out swordsmanship. However, he hasn't taken out his wooden sword or other cold weapons yet, and he's still managing to fight Amuro Tooru to a standstill with just his agile movements.
After Jiang Chengbei uttered his boast that he would knock out Amuro Tooru with one punch, he knew that he couldn't defeat this police officer, whose unarmed combat skills were slightly better than his own, with just his fists.
So, after a fistfight, Jiang Chengbei used a cheat code to put Amuro Tooru in a stiff, slow-moving debuff.
With the debuff applied, Amuro Tooru, whose unarmed combat skills were originally superior to Jiang Chengbei's, immediately fell into a disadvantageous state. His agility was even worse than Jiang Chengbei's, who was already more nimble. Then he started to get hit repeatedly, unable to land a single punch on the agile and unpredictable Jiang Chengbei.
"Jiang Chengbei, what have you done to me? Do you know what you're doing now? Don't you want to stay in Japan anymore?"
Amuro Tooru realized that he had suddenly become slow to react for some reason and was being constantly beaten by Jiang Chengbei. He could only feel powerless and angry, but his retaliatory punches could not hit Jiang Chengbei who was beating him.
"Bourbon, bourbon whiskey, you distillery executive, I'm letting you off easy by beating you up. I'll send you to jail later."
"Bourbon whiskey?!"
Conan was shocked again when he heard Jiang Chengbei call Amuro Tooru "Bourbon Whiskey". He never expected that this seemingly sunny and cheerful policeman was actually a member of the distillery!
While Jiang Chengbei was having a good time beating Amuro Tooru, the people in the hotel saw it and immediately all eyes were drawn to it.
Especially Professor Agasa, who rushed over to break up the fight after seeing Jiang Chengbei beating up his new neighbor:
"Jiang Cheng, stop hitting him! What's going on? Stop it now, let's talk this out..."
Seeing his new neighbor and good friend, Amuro Tooru, who is usually quite kind-hearted, get beaten up, Professor Agasa was extremely anxious and kept trying to persuade Jiang Chengbei to stop.
If it weren't for his old bones and failing health, Professor Agasa would have loved to rush up and hug Jiang Chengbei to separate them.
However, no matter how anxious Professor Agasa was, it was no use. On the contrary, the more anxious he became, the fiercer Jiang Chengbei fought.
As for why Jiang Chengbei was even more excited, it was because after Amuro Tooru was beaten up, he noticed that Ai Haibara's trembling body had finally gotten better and wasn't shaking as badly.
Meanwhile, Amuro Tooru, who had been keeping his head down and not daring to look at him, finally dared to steal a few glances now that Amuro Tooru had been beaten up so badly.
Sweating profusely, she gave Amuro Tooru a good beating. After Amuro Tooru was beaten black and blue, his face swollen and bruised, Ai Haibara, who had been terrified, finally calmed down and stopped trembling.
Seeing that Ai Haibara was no longer afraid, Jiang Chengbei, who had been exhausted from beating her, pulled out a pair of handcuffs from somewhere and handcuffed Amuro Tooru, who was beaten beyond recognition, behind his back.
After the battle, Conan noticed that Ai Haibara, who had been trembling before, was no longer trembling. Her previous reluctance to look at Tooru Amuro had also disappeared. Instead, she looked at Tooru Amuro, whose head had been beaten up, with bright eyes and a sparkle in them.
Because Ai Haibara's behavior after getting out of her sister's arms was rather obvious, Amuro Tooru, who had just been severely beaten up, also noticed this situation, and he was now completely baffled:
So why is this short-haired girl with brown hair no longer afraid of him after he was beaten up by Jiang Chengbei? What kind of logic is that?
Am I really that fierce-looking that I could terrify a little girl I've just met? And that she'd stop crying and start laughing after I get a beating?
When Jiang Chengbei beat up Amuro Tooru, the hotel staff and other guests had already called the police.
So, after Ai Haibara was no longer afraid, and after Jiang Chengbei was beaten so badly that he couldn't move and was covered in injuries, the police from Shizuoka Prefecture finally arrived.
When they arrived, initially, under the identification of the crowd, they were quite righteous towards Jiang Chengbei, the arrogant perpetrator, and wanted to arrest him and interrogate him, and deal with him according to the law.
But when Jiang Chengbei pulled a police notebook out of his pocket, casually tossed it to them, and told them that Amuro Tooru, whose hands were cuffed behind his back, was a dangerous individual and that he had a pistol, the situation immediately reversed 180 degrees.
Once they confirmed that the police handbook Jiang Chengbei had given them was genuine, they immediately saluted him and became his underlings.
Finally, as Jiang Chengbei had instructed, they actually found a handgun on Amuro Tooru. Immediately, they treated Jiang Chengbei with the utmost respect, regarding him as an incredibly powerful senior expert.
Chapter 212 Conan: Haibara, you have superpowers too? Let's catch thieves together!
Upon learning that Jiang Chengbei was a police officer, Conan and Amuro Tooru were completely stunned by this major revelation, especially Conan, who was so shocked he wanted to curse.
Whether others believe it or not, they certainly won't believe it.
