Chapter 733 An Unforgettable Gift
Chapter 733 An Unforgettable Gift
Although Chu Ming pointed out the drawbacks, the time had already come when the arrow was on the string and had to be shot. There was no time to find a new sniper location, and the problem Granburch mentioned might not necessarily occur. So Kevin drove the car and said casually: "As long as Jack can be killed, these are not a problem. And even if the FBI sniper is not dead, it can't be such a coincidence..."
"Don't set a flag." Chu Ming interrupted him in time, "Do you know what is the most taboo for a profession like ours that dances on the edge of a knife? That is to say something nonsense before the mission begins, such as "It won't be such a coincidence, I will definitely succeed" and so on. Most of the time, such words will be used as last words."
Kevin was interrupted by Chu Ming and didn't continue talking, but his face still showed some disapproval: "I will kill Jack."
Chu Ming tapped his fingers on his legs twice and suddenly said, "After you joined the organization, you must have been assigned to the action group. The current leader of the action group is Gin. If nothing unexpected happens, you should be following him to complete the mission."
Kevin tilted his head to look at Chu Ming, a little surprised: "Why, has the examiner already started introducing my boss and teammates to me?"
"No, I'm going to make a deal with you." Chu Ming glanced at him, "During this mission, if there is a sniper at the Asakusa Blue Sky Pavilion across the way, I will protect you. In exchange for saving your life, you will join the organization and stand on my side. How about that?"
Kevin slammed on the brakes and turned to look at Chu Ming: "You——"
"Don't be so surprised. If there is no one on the other side and you have successfully completed the mission without my help, then just ignore what I said." Chu Ming raised his hand to stop him from saying the next thing, and said cheerfully: "Think about it carefully, you won't lose anything at all."
"So everyone in the organization is doing their own thing?" Kevin turned his head and restarted the car. "Now that you've said that, I don't think I have any reason to disagree."
"It can't be said that we are each doing our own thing. I may not have told you that I am the boss's chosen successor, and recruiting you is just to prepare my own team in advance." Chu Ming adjusted his chair back, crossed his legs, and spoke in a lazy tone.
Although he was somewhat surprised by Chu Ming's identity, and also wondered why the organization's successor would personally assess him, Kevin quickly calmed down and focused his attention back on the killing mission.
The two of them sneaked into the tower while the security guards were not paying attention, and went straight to the first observation deck. Perhaps due to the sniper attack at the opening ceremony, there were almost no people on the Bell Terr tower today, so they reached the designated sniper position without any obstacles.
Chu Ming adjusted his sniper rifle, leaned on the railing beside him, and looked at the Asakusa Sky Pavilion not far away.
In fact, he had long wanted to play sniping with Shuichi Akai. According to the original plot, after the bug that Conan accidentally stuck under Gil's feet was discovered, Gin and Shuichi Akai were actually supposed to have a sniping duel.
Chu Ming had been looking forward to that plot point before, but because he interfered with the plot too much, Conan didn't even get to know the FBI, let alone Shuichi Akai's emergency rescue and knocked the chewing gum with fingerprints off Gin's hand, so his sniping ability seemed to have never been used.
But it doesn’t matter, there will always be a chance.
Kevin was lying on the observation deck with the muzzle of his sniper rifle pointed at the opposite window. Through the window, he could vaguely see his target this time, Jack, squatting on the ground with a gun, and it seemed that he really wanted to counterattack.
Chu Ming slightly turned sideways and hid behind Kevin. The first observation deck of BELL TREE tower is more than 600 meters high, while the height of Asakusa Sky Tower is much lower than here. So from Akai Shuichi's perspective, he could only see Kevin and could not see that Chu Ming was hiding behind Kevin.
From Chu Ming's angle, he could clearly see that Akai Shuichi was covering Okiya Subaru's face. There seemed to be a cold light flashing in his slightly narrowed eyes. He lay quietly on the ground, like a cheetah waiting for the right opportunity to hunt.
Although he saw Shuichi Akai, Chu Ming did not tell Kevin. Shuichi Akai was staring at Kevin. If Kevin showed an inappropriate expression after Chu Ming told him, it would definitely arouse Shuichi Akai's suspicion.
Chu Ming stared at Akai Shuichi's movements, and the moment he pulled the trigger, he also fired a shot. The two bullets collided on the same trajectory, producing a fleeting spark.
At the same time, Kevin's bullet successfully hit Jack's forehead. When Jack fell down after being shot, there was still a look of disbelief in his eyes.
Kevin completed the mission, so he naturally heard the sound of Chu Ming shooting. Seeing that the mission objective was solved, he turned the gun and used the sniper scope to look in the direction of the Blue Sky Pavilion. Sure enough, he vaguely saw a figure lying on the ground, hiding in the blind spot of the gun.
"There really is someone there?" Kevin was shocked. For a moment, he even thought that Chu Ming had sent someone from the organization to hide there in order to get him to side with him...
Chu Ming didn't know what he was thinking. Looking at Akai Shuichi who immediately retreated after missing his attack, he signaled to Kevin and took him to hide inside the observation deck.
Shuichi Akai was not in a hurry to catch him, after all, Gin and Bourbon had a big gift waiting for him.
After watching Kevin put away the last dice and shell, Chu Ming took him downstairs: "The mission is successfully completed. Congratulations on joining the organization. We will be colleagues in the future~"
Kevin disassembled the sniper rifle, put it into his backpack and put it on his back: "It's my pleasure. But doesn't the man in the Blue Sky Tower need to be dealt with?"
"No hurry, we'll have a chance to deal with him later. Now we have more important things to do." Chu Ming glanced at his bulging backpack and raised his eyebrows: "I remember you installed a bomb when you came up just now?"
"Yes, it's for use in case we're discovered and retreat." Kevin has always been cautious, and he's even more careful in order to help Hunter get revenge. "That bomb will destroy the power system on this tower, and I've brought night vision goggles, so I can retreat in the dark."
"Let's blow it up." Chu Ming tilted his head slightly, and the voices of several children and Xiaolan were faintly heard in the wind. It seemed that they were in the hall downstairs. "We still have a small task to do."
Although he was very curious about what Chu Ming was going to do, Kevin still obediently pressed the bomb switch. Amid a deafening roar, the entire tower fell into darkness.
Kevin put on the night vision goggles and turned to look at Chu Ming, only to find that Chu Ming was not wearing any auxiliary tools, but was walking very smoothly in the pitch-black darkness, even more freely than him who was wearing night vision goggles.
Is this the strength of that organization?
"Any other small tasks?"
Chu Ming pulled out a pistol from his side, twirled it flexibly in his hand, and made a gun flower. He smiled meaningfully at Kevin and said, "Go give a little kid a gift that will be remembered forever."
