Has the assassination attempt in Chapter 17 ended?
Sonoko recovered quickly; she'd seen plenty of shootings like this before. But Ran was miserable, huddled to the side, completely devoid of the heroic spirit she displayed in the Taekwondo competition.
Sonoko and he stood on either side of her, gently comforting her.
"Xiao Lan, it's okay. The three of us are safe now. The Metropolitan Police Department will be here soon, and then we'll be completely safe."
"Yes, Xiaolan, don't worry, we'll be fine as long as we don't go out running around."
This incident is also my fault. I slept in late, and there were hardly any people left when I left the school. Otherwise, if there were more people leaving the school together, I could have taken the opportunity to run back to the teaching building, and then they wouldn't have been able to do anything to me.
They wouldn't be in this situation, forced to hide here. Fortunately, the walls are thick enough that sniper rifles can't penetrate them; otherwise, hiding here wouldn't be safe for them.
The sniper had also fired a few shots, and Su Xingbai heard the sound of something hitting the wall. He was relieved to see that nothing was wrong.
But these people are really ruthless. They opened fire in the school. They're just like him, they're all the same kind of people. Why bother targeting him?
Meanwhile, in a restroom on the 18th floor, a sniper was intently watching the wall where Su Xingbo and his two companions were through his scope.
"Hey, boss, is this the really good guy in the organization you infiltrated? I didn't realize he was so good."
"But he's pretty fast. He managed to outrun my bullets even with two women in tow. Is he famous for running away, boss? Hahaha."
A serious voice came from the other end of the phone.
"Be careful, he's not that simple. His code name in the organization is Bloody Caesar. He's second only to Rum and Gin in the organization. Don't underestimate him."
"Boss, you're being too cautious. He's just a kid, what can he do? Caesar, huh? Watch me send him to meet Caesar with one shot! Look, he's even waving at me! Haha..."
"Hello, hello, hello, please respond if you hear me, please respond if you hear me, *sizzle*"
His two bodyguards in black will henceforth be called Number One and Number Two.
Following the location given by Su Xingbai, Number One and Number Two quickly found the sniper's location. In order to coordinate with their actions, he decisively stepped forward and waved his hand vigorously to attract the sniper's attention.
At the same time, Number One and Number Two immediately rushed into the toilet and started shooting wildly. The two of them fired a whole magazine at him before they finally stomped the headset to pieces.
The person on the other end of the phone knew the operation had failed and couldn't help but sigh. "You were too careless. We reminded you so many times, yet you still let your guard down."
It seems that in the future, when they select members, they must follow the organization's instructions and trust the organization's intelligence; otherwise, sending so many people would be a waste of time.
However, he soon stopped thinking that way; those who dared to provoke Su Xingbai usually didn't live long.
After taking down the sniper, Number One and Number Two cruelly folded him up into one piece and then threw him into a trash can.
I changed into ordinary clothes, put on a mask, took the elevator to the basement, and successfully left the building.
After everything was finished, the people from the Metropolitan Police Department arrived late, including Kogoro Mouri and Conan. Seeing the three of them hiding behind the wall, they rushed over.
"Search for nearby sniper positions, send more people to guard the area, and check if there are any surveillance cameras nearby that have captured the suspect."
"learn!"
Inspector Megure gave the order and quickly escorted the three into the school building. Along the way, Kogoro Mouri kept asking Ran if she was injured, while Conan stared intently at Su Xingbai.
He felt that this matter must have been caused by Su Xingbai, a conclusion he reached after calm analysis.
Ran is usually very sincere, so no one would be so heartless as to attack her. As for Sonoko, although there is a possibility that she could be attacked, it is actually quite unlikely. Although Sonoko is the daughter of a wealthy family, she is usually very easygoing and has hardly offended anyone, so the possibility is also slim.
So in the end there is only one answer, and that is Su Xingbo, he is the culprit!
"Oh my, big brother, have you offended someone? Why would someone want to kill you?"
Conan's sudden words immediately attracted everyone's attention, but Su Xingbo remained calm and answered slowly.
"I'm just an ordinary detective. How could I possibly have the ability to get someone to assassinate me? What have I done to deserve this? I think it's more likely that someone provoked an unknown organization, and we were just implicated by certain people."
"Conan, don't you think so?"
Conan immediately started stammering, unsure of what to say.
"Oh dear, this must be a trap set by those people. I am the famous detective Kogoro Mouri, ahahaha."
Upon hearing this, everyone was speechless, except for Su Xingbai, who secretly gave him a thumbs up. He was truly amazing; no wonder he was the famous detective Kogoro Mouri.
This was the first time he'd ever seen someone take on trouble for themselves; that's just how he is, and he even managed to fool Conan.
The group sat there for nearly two hours until the search team returned to report.
"could not find it."
"could not find it."
"could not find it."
"Since we haven't found it, let's go back first. There's no point in staying here."
"Yes, if those people are still going to attack us, then if you stay here and keep watch, they won't attack us. Maybe they'll just accidentally hurt us."
In the end, Inspector Megure had no choice but to send the three of them home, and the matter was dropped. No clues could be found. The only clue that proved that someone had killed them was the gun muzzle left by Su Xingbai when he threw away his clothes to test them. Otherwise, everyone would have thought that the three of them were joking.
When Su Xingbo returned home, Number One and Number Two were standing at the door acting as door gods for his house.
He told the two of them to go and rest, and he also needed to rest well. He didn't go to the brothel that night; he wanted to get some rest so he could work hard the next day.
Murder and arson bring wealth and honor; Su Xingbai will always avenge any wrong done to him!
This assassination attempt infuriated him, especially since it had humiliated him greatly in front of his woman.
He plans to go to Gin tomorrow to accept the mission. He knows all about those undercover agents and can catch them every time. Pretending or making excuses in front of him is useless.
winery!
Your emperor is back!
Accept Caesar's wrath!
