Chapter 156 - Chapter 156: Tokyo Uprising

"Akai-san, can you be sure? Is this woman suffering from a headache due to the stimulation of colors?" Kazami Yuya of the Public Security Bureau of Zero asked, furrowing his brow.

Although he was very displeased with this group from the FBI, there was nothing he could do. In front of these FBI agents, even he, a member of the Public Security Bureau, had to humble himself.

Akai Shuichi took out a five-color card that Curacao always carried with her: "It's still this child who reminded me about the 'four-color memory method' problem."

"This is not like memory palace; it's a common memory method, even quite rare, and it hasn't been completely proven that this method is effective."

"But this woman can instantly memorize so much content by relying on memory. She must be an exceptional talent."

"The fact that she carries this kind of card suggests she needs to use card colors to assist herself when recalling important information."

Saying this, Akai Shuichi glanced at Conan. Conan immediately gave a silly smile, revealing an expression that said "I don't know anything."

Megure Jūzō then noticed Conan and exclaimed in surprise: "Conan, why are you here?"

Conan hastily explained that he was playing with other children and had run into Curacao at the amusement park.

Megure Jūzō sighed repeatedly: "Why are you like Old Man Mouri, always having something happen wherever you go?"

Conan awkwardly smiled. Perhaps, maybe, this had nothing to do with Uncle Mouri. It really seemed like trouble just happened wherever he went.

However, Conan himself wouldn't admit it. He believed that this was Heaven telling him to use his deduction skills, so he always made sure to be sent to the crime scene!

Kazami Yuya was also smart enough to become a member of the Public Security Bureau. He immediately deduced: "On the Ferris wheel, this woman saw something similar to five colors, and it caused her memories to recover."

"I understand! It's the lights!" Kazami Yuya suddenly realized.

Akai Shuichi calmly nodded. Fortunately, this group from Zero wasn't purely idiotic; they could still figure out something so obvious.

"When is the next light show?" Akai Shuichi asked.

"At 6 PM."

"So, there's less than two hours left? Immediately go to the aquarium, prepare to ride the Ferris wheel. When the light show begins, let her see those lights, and see if it can recover her memories."

"Yes!"

"Jodie, you go with them." Akai Shuichi ordered a sexy woman with short golden hair beside him.

"Alright."

Kazami Yuya looked displeased. This FBI agent having someone follow him was clearly a sign of distrust towards him and the other Public Security members from Zero. But he had no choice; he could only obediently listen.

After a moment of silence, Akai Shuichi said again, "This woman once stole a lot of important information, so that organization won't easily let her fall into our hands."

"It's highly likely that organization will send people to rescue Curacao. Your police department should be prepared. Also, it's best to prepare some heavy weaponry."

Actually, Akai Shuichi didn't want the police department to participate in this matter. The two parties were not on the same level. At most, the people from the police department were criminal police, and the Black Organization would most likely send mercenaries who had been on battlefields. But with too few FBI personnel, he didn't have the qualifications to mobilize Zero's self-defense force, so he could only let the police department do the work.

Megure Jūzō jumped in surprise, "What's going on, making us bring heavy weapons? Are we going to war?" He hastily asked, "What organization? Can you explain more clearly?"

Akai Shuichi shook his head. "It's classified information; I can't tell you. I just ask if you have heavy weapons?"

Megure Jūzō hastily ordered someone to prepare, taking out several Type 90 assault rifles produced by the police department itself.

"Recently, Zero has been experiencing a lot of strange activity, and the higher-ups have also equipped our police department with several assault rifles." Akai Shuichi was speechless.

Just a few assault rifles? Fine, it's better than nothing. This is just the police department after all. What kind of powerful weapons could they have? Don't even joke.

"Then bring all the weapons!" At this moment, Conan, who was nearby, was ecstatic!

The FBI knew about the Black Organization and had always been fighting against it. This was probably the most exciting news he had heard since he became small.

From the intelligence they had, both the CIA and the FBI knew about that organization. The CIA's thoughts were unclear, but the FBI seemed to be actively pursuing the organization. Kudo Shinichi was not fighting alone; he had strong battle companions.

But at the same time, Conan's heart sank with dread. An organization targeted by the CIA and FBI, and possibly even intelligence agencies from other countries, had actually survived and even thrived without being annihilated. This organization was even more terrifying than imagined! Especially since this organization dared to send people to infiltrate the CIA and the Public Security Bureau of Zero to steal information, and even succeeded! It was simply outrageous!

Fujiwara Tōru bid farewell to Kirisame and returned to the aquarium.

Since Scarce required him to kill core members of the Black Organization as a warning, he couldn't afford to be distracted.

Around 5 PM, Fujiwara Tōru found Haibara Ai and Shiho. The two women had been playing at the aquarium all afternoon.

Shiho's expression was cold, but her heart was warm; although seemingly detached, she was good at heart. Haibara Ai had seen human indifference since childhood and was quite astute, so the two of them got along harmoniously and affectionately.

"Young Master Fujiwara."

Haibara Ai, who had been playing all day, was still excited, her fighting spirit soaring. It wasn't easy to have a day off, so naturally, she wanted to play to her heart's content and comfort. Oh, no, it wasn't a day off; Young Master Fujiwara had given her an extra day off.

Haibara Ai decisively said, "Today I won't go back to the Four Great Families. I want to go back to my true home, get a good night's sleep tomorrow, and definitely not wake up before noon!"

"Haibara, how was it? Did you have fun? Did Shiho behave herself?"

Shiho glared at Fujiwara Tōru. "She wasn't happy!"

Haibara Ai beamed with a smile: "Happy, I haven't been this happy in a long time! Shiho also behaved quite well, and she rarely throws tantrums."

"It would be even better if Young Master Fujiwara could play with us too."

Haibara Ai's eyes sparkled with adoration as she looked at Fujiwara Tōru. Her bird-like clinging posture made one long to embrace and protect her. Why was this woman acting so much?

Haibara Ai's personality was ever-changing. Now, this fragile and unreliable posture was clearly faked, specially designed to soften men's hearts.

"Young Master Fujiwara, shall we have dinner? There's also a light show at six o'clock. I'm already looking forward to it."

"A light show..." Fujiwara Tōru glanced at the Ferris wheel. If his intelligence was correct, the Black Organization should also be making their move.

"Alright, then let Haibara treat us."

"Hehe, gladly!"

They said they were going for dinner, but at this hour, there were no seats available in the aquarium's restaurants. There was no other choice. Haibara Ai personally waited in line and bought some food for the three of them from a convenience vehicle outside.

"I'm sorry, Young Master Fujiwara, we can only eat this." The three found an empty spot by the roadside and sat down. Haibara Ai handed over some small meatball-like snacks, repeatedly apologizing.

"It's fine. Aquariums are inherently troublesome places. It's already good that you could buy something to eat."

Seeing Fujiwara Tōru's gentle and benevolent nature, as a young master, he didn't care at all about eating "commoner food" by the roadside. Haibara Ai felt a sudden, inexplicable jealousy towards Kaguya.

Why did she have such good fortune? Not only was she born into the Four Great Families, but she also had such an excellent fiancé? She dared not think about it; that would only make her sad.

As it approached six o'clock, the entire aquarium transformed into a sea of joy. All shops and lights were turned on, and festive music echoed throughout the venue. This light show would last at least two hours. Many animal performances at the aquarium would not be able to proceed in the evening, and the light show was the next program.

Haibara Ai excitedly stood up. She didn't even prepare to grab a spot; anyway, this was a light show for the entire park, and it looked the same from anywhere.

But as the light show began, harmonious sounds rang out.

Dozens of police cars flashed red and blue lights, stopping outside the aquarium. Over two hundred police officers descended from the vehicles. A police officer directed the scene, practically sealing off the entire aquarium. Megure Jūzō, at this moment, could only become an obedient foot soldier.

The arrival of the police personnel caused the visitors inside the aquarium to stir, creating a disturbance. "What's going on? Has there been a homicide?"

"No way, even if it's a homicide, there's no need to send so many police personnel."

"I just checked online, and the internet says there's a heavy presence here."

"..."

Visitors inside the aquarium were all surprised by the police's arrival.

"Chief, should we disperse all the visitors in the aquarium?" A subordinate from the police department reported.

The chief of the police department looked hesitant. Directly dispersing all the visitors in the aquarium? If he didn't have a reasonable explanation for this, he would be difficult to hold accountable. Currently, the aquarium had not only local visitors from Zero but also many foreign tourists. He couldn't act on his own. Especially since nothing major was happening right now, just dispersing the crowd because a criminal suspect was trying to recover memories seemed like an overreaction.

"No need to disperse; proceed as planned."

"Yes!"

At the Ferris wheel, Kazami Yuya of the Public Security Bureau of Zero and Jodie from the FBI boarded one of the gondolas. They handcuffed Curacao to the iron pole.

Inside the Ferris wheel, Akai Shuichi was already prepared. If the Black Organization sent people to rescue Curacao, they would definitely appear here. However, he didn't expect to see a familiar person on the Ferris wheel: "Is that you?"

That person was Furuya Rei.

At the same moment, at a private airport in Tokyo, Bourbon put away his phone: "Time to take off! Take off!"

Whirring, whirring, whirring— The tilt-rotor aircraft's rotors began to spin.

By the aquarium's shore, an elite mercenary unit emerged from the water. They wore special suits, held long guns, and vigilantly observed their surroundings, preparing for a long battle.

Ryuzetsu, who led them, said, "Your money has already been transferred to your account. Tokyo Bay has prepared a fast boat for your evacuation."

"There's also a cargo ship waiting for you on the high seas. What you need to do now is to cause a commotion here. The bigger the commotion, the more like a terrorist organization, the better!"

Black Organization, attack!
