Conan: The truth lies only within the range of fire

Chapter 4 Terrorist sniper range



Shuichi Akai successfully reunited with his FBI companions, got on a ship ready to evacuate Japan, traveled to other countries by sea, and then took a plane to the United States.

Akai Shuichi had already anticipated that during this period, members of the organization would definitely be looking for him everywhere, and they would not be able to return to Japan in a short period of time.

On the deck of the ship, the ferocious-looking Andre Cameron came to Akai Shuichi with a remorseful expression.

"Akai, I'm sorry. It was all because of me that the operation to capture Gin failed, and that your identity as an undercover agent in the organization was exposed. I'm sorry, I'm really sorry."

Andre Cameron blames himself very much.

Akai Shuichi patted Cameron on the shoulder and comforted: "Don't show such an expression, Cameron. There is no way to recover if the action fails. If you are too harsh on yourself, you will stop moving forward. Go on." Get some sleep, everything will be fine tomorrow.”

Hearing Shuichi Akai's comfort, Andre Cameron blamed himself even more. He would rather Shuichi Akai scolded him and beat him than comforting him like this.

Obviously, the saddest thing should be Akai Shuichi.

Cameron headed to his room on the ship in despair.

Shuichi Akai lit a cigarette, leaned against the railing on the deck, and quietly blew in the sea breeze.

At this time, James Blake, who looked very gentleman and was also the operational boss of Shuichi Akai, Andre Cameron and other FBI team members, came to Shuichi Akai.

James sighed regretfully: "Now that your identity in the organization has been exposed, our clues to this black organization will be completely cut off. In the future, it will be extremely difficult to arrange undercover personnel to enter the organization."

Akai Shuichi looked at the sea level with his deep eyes, and slowly said: "It's not over yet. There is another guy in the organization who may be the thread connecting our FBI to the organization."

James showed a surprised expression: "Who?"

Akai Shuichi flicked the cigarette butt into the sea and said: "This guy is someone I met in the organization. His code name is Golden Ale. His self-proclaimed name is Kamiya Minazuki, but it is not known whether this is his real name."

James frowned: "A codename member in the organization? Can you trust him?"

"Now I can only trust him. He knows my identity and has not reported it to the organization. And if I hadn't cooperated with Golden Ale this time, I might not have been able to escape the pursuit of the black organization. But since it was cooperation, relatively, I will also pay a corresponding reward.”

Hearing Shuichi Akai say this, James felt that this was normal.

In James's impression, the members of these organizations are all cunning, ruthless and cold-blooded guys who will never give up to achieve their goals. If they help Akai Shuichi without any price, they will really see a ghost.

James asked: "What does Golden Ale want from you or the FBI?"

"A legal identity."

"Huh? That's it?"

James was dumbfounded. It should be easy to obtain a legal identity by virtue of Golden Ale, the official code name of the organization. How could he propose such a reward to Akai Shuichi?

Akai Shuichi explained his speculation about Kamiya Minazuki's approach: "Although on the surface Gin Ale just wants a legal identity from me, the deeper level is that Gin Ale wants to cooperate with our FBI. Gin Ale is very important to the organization. There is no loyalty at all, he is leaving a way out for himself."

James' eyes gradually became brighter: "If that's the case, that would be great. This means that we can continue to trace the organization!"

Shuichi Akai poured cold water on James and said: "Don't be too happy too early. These are just my speculations at the moment. In the organization, compared to the code name Golden Ale, he may be more famous in the organization by another nickname."

James asked curiously: "What nickname?"

"Crazy lunatic."

James is a little confused about this nickname.

Akai Shuichi explained: "In addition to the tasks arranged by the organization, Jin Ale acts without logic. He only depends on his mood when doing things, and he acts very crazy. Once you mess with him, he will be like a poisonous snake. Waiting for an opportunity in the dark, do you still remember the highest range record I have using a sniper rifle?"

James recalled it and replied: "It seems to be 1800 meters, right?"

Akai Hide nodded: "Yes, I can accurately sniper targets with a sniper rifle at 1800 meters or around 2000 yards. Once, I had a sniper duel with Jin Ale. He used a sniper rifle at around 2200 yards." Accurate sniper hit the target."

James was shocked and couldn't believe the terrifying sniper range of Kamiya Minatsuki's 2200 yards.

He actually had 200 yards more than Shuichi Akai.

Moreover, what Hide Akai Shuichi said was accurate sniping target, which meant that if you hit the left eye, you can't hit the right eye, and if you hit the forehead, you can't hit the nose.

Akai Shuichi's 2000-yard precision sniper target is already quite outstanding in the FBI, but this Golden Ale can actually hit a -yard farther distance than Akai Shuichi, which is simply incredible.

"Not only that, I think Golden Ale must have some reservations. Just imagine, he snipers you at a location 2200 yards away. Can you counterattack him?"

James imagined this scene in his mind, trembled suddenly, and dense beads of sweat oozed from his forehead.

Akai Shuichi continued: "Originally, he only needed a qualified identity, but this time the organization's pursuit of me was a bit intense. He temporarily raised the price, and now he also wants a reward of 10 million yen."

"Ten million yen is just over 80,000 US dollars. Yes, I have approved this funding."

James approved with a wave of his hand.

For only $80,000, you can get the help of a master and a member of the organization's codename. This deal is really profitable.

Akai Shuichi reminded James: "Don't think that 10 million yen is the end. Although Golden Ale promised me that he would pass on organizational information to me from time to time, this should not be free. Maybe more 10 million yen will be needed in the future. .”

"That's no problem. Akai, tell that Jin Ale that as long as he feels at ease within the organization and passes the organization's information to us, we will try our best to meet his requirements."

Then, James asked curiously: "Is that golden ale your friend, Akai?"

Akai Shuichi was silent for a while and said: "Let's just call them friends."
