Chapter 175: Storm Resurfaces!
Calmness and tranquility bring eternal prosperity.
This is the most beautiful vision pursued by ordinary criminal investigators in their daily lives.
Not only do they hope to go home on time and take the opportunity to study materials related to promotion exams after dealing with various matters, but it is also the most genuine wish.
Because when they become busy, it symbolizes the occurrence of a case, which represents the loss of a vibrant life.
Even though studying can be a headache, or being constantly busy with miscellaneous tasks, they still find some enjoyment in it.
That hope that continues to persist is perhaps a feeling that the elites who have never set foot in a crime scene cannot understand.
However, as one of the very few elites who have stepped into crime scenes, Senichi also enjoys the busy, fulfilling, yet calm time just like that.
Ring, ring, ring...
During noon, in the midst of calmness and tranquility, Senichi's phone suddenly rang.
"Mosimosi, Haibara?" Seeing the caller ID, Senichi answered with a smile. "What's up? Has something happened?"
The reason he said that was, first, Haibara wasn't the kind of person who would call for no reason. Her daily life consisted of going home and being a recluse.
Second, Senichi had let Haibara infiltrate the Detective Boys as a "mole," so she could inform him promptly when the Little Detectives got involved in any dangerous situations.
This was a great way to earn rewards. Generally speaking, the cases the Little Detectives got involved in often turned into actual criminal cases in the end.
By having Haibara notify him in advance, it was like having a trigger for a new case. While not all cases could be prevented, at least the chances were higher.
However, as soon as he answered the call, Senichi realized something was wrong. Haibara's breathing on the other end of the line was too rapid, and her voice was trembling.
"He... He appeared... Gin..."
Haibara's trembling words entered Senichi's ears, causing his gaze to sharpen.
"Calm down, what's the situation right now?" Senichi spoke calmly. "Where are you? Have you been discovered?"
"No, I found his car, the black Porsche 356A."
It seemed that hearing Senichi's composed words helped Haibara calm down from her "Black Organization phobia." "Right now, Conan is calling Dr. Agasa over. It seems they want to take action, and Conan asked me to inform you."
Upon hearing this, Senichi probably guessed which case this was. After all, there were only a few mainline cases, and Haibara's involvement was extremely rare.
Immediately, Senichi spoke solemnly to Haibara on the other end of the phone, "Don't get close to the vehicle! You don't need to get involved in this matter. Don't follow Conan's lead blindly!
If things go wrong, it could put you and your sister at risk. Leave that place immediately and go home!"
Are you kidding? Letting Haibara go with Conan, besides the risk of being discovered, what reward would she get other than getting shot with a tranquilizer dart!
None!
Instead of going there for no reason, getting startled and scared, it would be better to just let Haibara leave directly and eliminate all the potential risks that might arise.
He remembered the note on the "Butterfly Effect Stabilization Card" very well.
-- Changes caused by the real world cannot be erased. Be careful of the different changes that may result from this.
Haibara was happy because of her sister, and her entire world was no longer filled with despair. This was a positive change brought about by Miyano Akemi herself.
But Miyano Akemi running away and disappearing was an irreversible negative influence, especially for the Black Organization.
The unerasable part of reality might bring about different changes. Senichi didn't want to gamble with his luck.
Originally, both sisters, who were members of the Black Organization, successfully escaped. Moreover, they didn't escape together but separately, using different methods to break free from the organization.
This would cause a much greater shock within the Black Organization than what Haibara alone caused in the original story.
Under the premise of her sister's disappearance, they let the more important and strictly guarded younger sister escape. This might even make people suspect that the organization was weakening. Otherwise, how could they be so incompetent?
Even the chain reaction would arouse some people's suspicions and bring shock to the entire organization.
In this situation, the two sisters had long become thorns in the side of the Black Organization, and they would have loved to kill them and be done with it.
Having news about the two sisters was probably a major achievement. In such a situation, it was hard to say if Kenzo Masuyama (Pisco) would act as he did before.
Maybe after recognizing Haibara, he thought of reporting it directly to Gin for capture.
In that case, if Gin learned the secret of the APTX 4869 drug that could make people shrink, it wouldn't be long before Conan's true identity was exposed. With the way he jumps around, it was likely that he would be silenced sooner or later.
Therefore, these risks had to be eliminated, and the best way was to keep Haibara from getting involved!
"I understand. I'll leave right away." After hearing the concern in Senichi's unquestionable words, Haibara's heart warmed, and she didn't object at all. She immediately agreed.
In fact, Senichi didn't need to give such serious orders. Haibara wouldn't follow Conan into danger.
Unlike in the previous life, where she lost her sister and had no attachments, Haibara now had her sister to rely on. She had no objections to Senichi's decision not to let her take risks.
Even if the development of the drug was said to be the work of a murderer, it didn't matter. She had already grasped that little bit of warmth she had longed for. Being able to be with her sister was the most important thing; everything else was insignificant!
Before hanging up, Haibara told him that she had already seen Dr. Agasa's car arriving.
Without hesitation, Senichi called Conan again, and on the other end, Conan, holding his portable phone, immediately answered the call.
"It's me. I've already heard the general situation from Haibara. I told her to leave first. How's the situation on your end?" Without wasting time, Senichi got straight to the point.
"Everything is going smoothly. I'm currently placing bugs and trackers in the car." As soon as he finished speaking, Conan's voice came through the phone.
"When you're done, come down quickly. The other party could return at any time." Senichi couldn't help but urge, "Pay attention to your surroundings."
"Don't worry, I've finished talking with you already." Conan chuckled. "I've locked the car and I'm heading towards Dr. Agasa's car now.
Just be patient and wait. If there's a need, you can move in after I gather information."
"Okay, be careful." Senichi nodded and agreed to Conan's plan to hold the fort.
In fact, even Senichi could only do this for now. After all, he was doing well to remember the general plot. It was a bit too much to expect him to remember the specific location of the crime scene. Now, he could only wait for the information from Conan's eavesdropping.
"Now I can only hope that the target's location is relatively close. If that's the case, I still have a chance to prevent the crime and earn a bigger reward..." Thinking this, Senichi couldn't help but silently pray.
