Although Conan had "deduced" it, he still found it hard to believe. After all that beating around the bush, now he was being told that Natsume was one of his own?!
After all, he and Sonoko were childhood sweethearts, and Sonoko's family was practically family.
"Of course, after today you can go to the Suzuki house and ask yourself. For Ran and Sonoko's sake, Tomoko will definitely tell you!"
Xia Ye said calmly.
Tomoko?
Conan noticed the rather inappropriate nickname "Natsume," but he was so shocked today that he couldn't be bothered with such gossip!
"I'll ask Aunt Tomoko!"
Having confirmed Natsume's "true" identity, Conan felt a sense of relief. After all, Natsume was too amazing. Not only was his reasoning ability strong, but his fighting skills were also superb. If he were an enemy, he would be a nightmare!
Now that we're on friendly terms, regardless of whether he can help or not, we're already lucky that we're not enemies!
"That's good~"
Xia Ye nodded and smiled, "Now that you've asked all your questions, I have one too. Did your father tell the FBI and the police about my identity?"
"no!"
Conan's expression was strange.
Xia Ye harbored a grudge against his father for stealing his wife, but he didn't reveal Xia Ye's identity to him. He just told him quietly and instructed him to keep it a secret.
Conan couldn't understand what this was all about!
Of course, he couldn't understand it.
Xia Ye, however, understood the situation very clearly.
Yusaku Kudo is pretty much useless in this area.
He had just felt something was strange.
If Kudo Yusaku has discovered his identity, then why haven't the FBI, the Metropolitan Police Department, and the Public Security Police made any moves yet?
Amuro Tooru's side is because there are only a few people in the meeting, and if he goes after the meeting to deal with Natsume, his own identity will be questioned.
Yusaku Kudo didn't have this concern.
Revealing Xia Ye's identity would at least eliminate one potential threat.
However, he still chose to keep it a secret, which was clearly closely related to Xia Ye's role as a "comforter for the aggrieved."
He couldn't bear to see Natsume, the man so close to Yukiko, get into trouble, and he couldn't bear to lose those thrilling scenes—
That's why we say he's finished.
A hint of a smile flickered deep in Xia Ye's eyes. Next time, he could try it with Yukiko when he was home.
I suppose he wouldn't care?
"Alright, now that things have been cleared up, Conan, you should go back now. I have things to do!"
Xia Ye gave the order to leave, then shifted her gaze to the helicopter that was already hovering on the roof of the building where Gin was.
"You're still going to help the Black Organization?"
Conan looked at Natsume angrily and asked.
"How fresh!"
Xia Ye gave him a speechless look. "We undercover agents are all caught up in the situation. If we don't want to expose our identities, we have to help the wicked. I'm no exception. Otherwise, would I have been playing around with my more than ten years of infiltrating the organization?"
Conan was slightly stunned.
I think what he said makes a lot of sense.
Just like Xia Ye, who went undercover in the Metropolitan Police Department and did a great job, solving so many cases. Calling him a model police officer wouldn't be an exaggeration—this guy really loves what he does...
"Is that Gin?"
Conan, clinging to the rooftop railing, followed Xia Ye's gaze. The helicopter hovering in the air seemed to have picked up people and was preparing to take off. "Too bad, they were too naive!"
"Oh?"
"Do you have a backup plan?" Xia Ye asked.
"Of course!" Conan exclaimed with a hint of pride. "My dad had already guessed that the enemy would escape by air in an emergency!"
"Not bad~"
Xia Ye gave a light compliment, and then saw three helicopters emerge from behind the building that had been providing cover and begin to surround the helicopter carrying Gin.
"The plan was very thorough, but—"
"Just what?"
"boom--!"
As soon as Conan finished speaking, a rocket trailing a flame flew out from the ground and hit one of the helicopters. The poor helicopter instantly turned into a fireball and fell from the sky!
"But we underestimated the organization!"
They're crazier than you think!
Before Xia Ye could finish speaking, three more rockets were launched into the air. One of the remaining two helicopters was targeted by two rockets and instantly suffered the same fate as the previous helicopter. The other helicopter, however, escaped destruction because it made a maneuver.
Four rockets followed.
There was no movement on the ground.
It's unclear whether they ran out of ammunition and retreated or were discovered by a special raiding force.
"hateful!"
Conan watched as the two helicopters crashed. Filled with righteous indignation, he was furious. These members of the Black Organization were utterly inhuman. This was in the bustling downtown area of Beika Town. Who knew if the crash would cause any casualties?
"Gin should be able to escape now—"
With only one helicopter remaining in the sky, Xia Ye believed Gin was safe, however—
Bang-!
The sound of a sniper rifle firing reached my ears.
Xia Ye looked at the only surviving helicopter.
With his abnormal eyesight, he spotted the black-haired man crouching in a sniper rifle, standing in the open doorway of the helicopter!
Shuichi Akai!
Gin's previous position was the best sniping spot in the vicinity. If Akai Shuichi, who is also a sniper, were to set up a sniper position elsewhere, he wouldn't pose much of a threat to Gin. Therefore, he chose to move and snipe from the helicopter!
"Tsk tsk, Gin is in danger!"
Shuichi Akai's helicopter was positioned higher than Gin's, and the angle he chose was perfect, making his sniping from a superior position much more effective!
In contrast, Gin was not only in a lower position but also at the wrong angle, making it impossible for him to even set up his sniper rifle, leaving him with no choice but to retreat passively.
He does look rather disheveled!
"What are you still doing standing here?"
Xia Ye glanced at Conan and said, "I'm going to help Gin fight off the enemy. Doesn't that make you uncomfortable?"
"Can't you just not help him?"
Conan complained, "That's clearly a bad guy!"
"I'm a bad person too~"
Xia Ye tapped his head and sighed, "So, you'd better stick to your mystery games and not get involved in things you don't understand."
"Who says I don't understand!"
Conan's eyes widened; this was underestimating him!
"Haha~"
Xia Ye said calmly, "It's fine if I wasn't there, but I am. If Gin dies and I didn't lift a finger, the boss will definitely be furious. You're stopping me now, which is tantamount to killing me—and you say you know a lot?"
"I didn't stop you!"
Conan lowered his voice considerably. He knew this too, but seeing Natsume, who was "one of his own," helping the enemy made him feel a little awkward!
"Well--"
Xia Ye took the sniper rifle from Vermouth, who had been watching the commotion with a smile, and set it up on the edge of the rooftop.
"and many more!"
Conan looked at him suspiciously. "Where did the sniper rifle come from?"
"It was hidden here before~"
"Don't talk!"
"Oh..."
Natsume aimed at the helicopter where Shuichi Akai was.
Meanwhile, Shuichi Akai once again aimed at Gin's helicopter, his eyes cold as he pulled the trigger. Bang!
This time it finally worked!
Gin's helicopter, having been hit by something, began to spin and slowly plummet towards the ground.
however--
Before Shuichi Akai could even feel happy, he suddenly felt his hairs stand on end—it felt like he was being targeted by a sniper rifle!
Bang-!
Shuichi Akai tensed up, but before the bullet pierced his body, he heard the helicopter pilot's voice: "Engine damaged, emergency landing now, prepare for impact!"
Thus—merit—
In the darkness of night.
Both helicopters from the opposing sides plummeted downwards.
It possesses a rather desolate beauty!
Chapter 339 Is Shuichi Akai Dead or Not?
After Xia Ye fired the shot, she ignored the helicopter.
Neither Gin nor Shuichi Akai's helicopter was completely destroyed.
There is residual power.
There is still a high chance of survival after an emergency landing.
Of course, it wouldn't matter if they really died.
Xia Ye has already made a move, as evidenced by Vermouth.
Even if Gin dies, he will have given an explanation to the BOSS.
"Alright, Conan, goodbye!"
"and many more!"
Conan instinctively tried to stop Natsume.
He still has many questions to ask.
For example, is Karasuma Ren really the organization's BOSS?
For example, an organization's base in Tokyo.
However, Xia Ye didn't stop at all. She simply greeted him and left with Vermouth.
Only Conan's lonely figure remained in the night.
This guy just left like that?
Conan scratched his head. Well—
This rooftop meeting didn't feel like negotiating with vicious criminals at all; it felt more like a meeting between friends.
Seeing how carefree Xia Ye walked away, there wasn't a trace of tension between them.
