Chapter 2485 Conan: Could it be that this is...acting?
"What? You said she escaped? Damn it! Isn't she unconscious? How could she be allowed to escape?"
At an intersection in Cupido Town, a BMW was parked in traffic. Judy was holding a phone in her hand, with an ugly expression on her beautiful face. She was listening to the detective on the phone reporting the situation, Conan, James II
The person looked at Judy sideways, his face serious, and he had a guess in his mind.
After listening to what the agent said on the phone, Judy sighed, stretched out her hand and rubbed her forehead and said:
"Okay, okay, I understand... Listen, now is not the time to blame yourself. You should rush to the Acupido Police Station immediately and wait for the next instructions. Do you understand?"
After Judy finished speaking, she hung up the phone. James turned to look at Judy and asked seriously:
"Belmod, did she escape?"
"That's right." Judy nodded, then reached out and pushed up her glasses. Her expression was not very good, and her voice was filled with helplessness and annoyance:
"...They said that Belmode woke up at some point, secretly unlocked the handcuffs when the car was parked at the intersection, injured an agent, kicked in the car door, and then fled to a house on the roadside.
Inside the supermarket, it just disappeared..."
"...They suspected that Belmode escaped to another street through the back door of the supermarket and took the opportunity to leave..."
Judy recounted the process, while James frowned and his voice sounded much calmer:
"...That's it... It seems now that she should have woken up a long time ago, but she was never discovered by our people. She only suddenly broke out when the time was right and fled quickly..."
"...This 'Thousand-Faced Witch' is still as cunning as ever!"
After James finished speaking, Judy cursed "Damn it" and then said:
"...It took a lot of effort to catch her, but she escaped again..."
"Okay, Judy, don't think too much, and don't criticize our companions too harshly. You know, when we were in New York, Xiuyi had already injured that guy and forced her into a corner, but she still escaped.
Already..."
James softly persuaded Judy, and suddenly heard the sound of "Didi" whistle coming from behind him. He was slightly startled and turned to look ahead. He saw that the traffic light had turned green, and the car in front had already driven out, and he immediately turned to the front.
Driving forward, he continued:
"...Although she escaped again this time, she can't escape every time. As long as we continue to chase her, we will catch her one day!"
"Uh...that's right..."
Listening to James' words, Judy was stunned for a moment, and then as if she remembered something, she stretched out her hand and patted her forehead and said:
"...By the way! I have to tell Xiuyi about Belmod's escape. After all, the person who caught Belmode was Shuichi's informant..."
As Judy spoke, she took out her mobile phone again, found Akai Shuichi's number, and pressed the answer button. James asked curiously:
"...Speaking of which, did Xiuichi say what he was busy with before?"
"Well... well... I asked, but he didn't tell me. Instead, he asked where we were..."
Judy answered casually, then connected the phone, and immediately greeted with a smile:
"Hey, Shuichi..."
Judy and Akai Shuichi were talking on the phone, while Conan was sitting in the back seat of the car, holding his chin with his hand, looking like he was thinking——
That guy Belmod was obviously unconscious when he was delivered to the FBI, but he was able to escape. It's really impressive!
Speaking of which, he had always thought that Belmod was an informant buried in the organization by the Soul Exterminator...
Conan was thinking wildly in his mind, and then as if he thought of something, an idea suddenly flashed in his mind, and he had a guess in his mind:
"Wait! Could it be that this is...acting?"
Conan thought about it for a few seconds, and then suddenly a smile appeared on his lips——
If you really think so, it’s not impossible!~
…
"...Forget it! Since Belmod has escaped, it's the past tense..."
On a certain street in Mika Town, in a moving Chevrolet, Shuichi Akai held the steering wheel with one hand and a mobile phone in the other hand, listening to Judy's voice on the mobile phone:
"...Now, you said you were going to Acupido Police Station, right?"
"That's right, Shuichi."
Judy's voice came from the mobile phone: "...Next, Gin, Vodka and the others will most likely rush to the Abeido Police Station, planning to kill Lupine..."
"Really? I understand..." Akai Shuichi responded, "...I'm not very far from Acupido Police Station, so let's meet later!"
After Akai Shuichi finished speaking, he hung up the phone and whispered softly:
"...Acupido Police Station?"
Akai Shuichi remembered that the adult seemed to have said that after the FBI people picked up Belmod from him, they would go and grab gin and vodka...
In other words, will that adult also go there?
Akai Shuichi was thinking in his mind, holding the steering wheel with both hands, turning right at the intersection and driving towards the Acupido Police Station...
…
It's around four o'clock in the afternoon, Aipido Town 4-chome.
In the driving BMW, James asked in surprise:
"...Are you saying that Shuichi is near Acupido Police Station right now?"
"Well, that's right!" Judy nodded, "...he told me 'see you then', and he should also plan to go to the Abeido Police Station to help..."
"Really? If we can have Shuichi help, we will be much more certain of catching those two guys. After all, Shuichi is the best among the best..."
As James spoke, he suddenly frowned and said, "...I remember that this road goes straight past, and it's Abedo Park, right?"
"Well, that's right." Judy nodded, "...and, since just now, there have been more cars and people here..."
"I think it's because everyone heard that Lupine the Third was imprisoned at Acupido Police Station, so they rushed to join in the fun..."
Conan expressed his guess: "...After all, Lupine is quite popular and has many fans..."
"Well, that's true..."
Judy and James both nodded slightly——
You know, Lupine the Third is also registered with the FBI.
As a world-class thief, Lupine not only has a large number of fans who support him, but also has ambiguous relationships with military and political officials in many countries.
There are even rumors that even high-ranking officials within the FBI are Lupine's friends, providing a lot of convenience to Lupine's operations in the United States...
Judy and James reviewed the information about Lupine in their minds, and then heard Judy say "ah!", and then pointed to a lane in front:
