Chapter 88 - Chapter 88: Cointreau said there was a bomb in the box

 "What a shame! If the power of the punch could exceed 250 points, there would be more dazzling special effects!"

 In front of a boxing game frame at the Mantiantang press conference, a staff member said to the players with some regret.

 I saw a strong man standing in front of the frame.

 He was wearing a boxing glove, and after he hit the boxing target in the center of the frame, the score displayed on the screen was 246.

 "It's not that easy. I just fought with all my strength."

 The sturdy man took off his boxing gloves as he spoke.

 There were quite a few people watching around, including Hayashi Yoshiki and Mao Lilan.

 "Are you interested in trying it, Ran Mouri?"

 "Hmm, that seems interesting..."

 Ran Mouri nodded lightly.

 However, she felt a little embarrassed because there were so many people around her, so Hayashi Yoshiki walked up to the staff and said, "Please let me try."

 "OK."

 The staff handed over the gloves.

 However, before putting it on, Hayashi Yoshiki took off his coat first. Seeing his action, Ran Mouri suddenly thought of the time when Hayashi Yoshiki took off his shirt when he captured the Kaito Kid.

 Her face turned red.

 "Please keep it for me, Ran Mouri."

 "good....."

 Hayashi Yoshiki put on boxing gloves.

 --Speaking of which, Hayashi Yoshiki hasn't had any proper training for a while since the winery's training ground was taken down by Snake.

 But the current feel is pretty good.

 Hayashi Yoshiki tried to hold it, raised his hand without much pause, and then punched the target in the frame.

 --------Bang!

 A heavy and solid sound.

 The machine suddenly burst into loud noises and dazzling light, and the number displayed on the screen jumped to 397 in one breath.

 The staff member was shocked: "Only three points away from full marks!?"

 The people around were also surprised. They probably didn't expect that Hayashi Yoshiki, who looked so intelligent and gentle, could be so strong.

 "That's amazing, Yoshiki-nii! Have you studied anything too?"

 "Well, I learned some self-defense skills, but it was mainly just fitness training."

 Hayashi Yoshiki took off his gloves and handed them to her, "Would you like to try it? It's quite relaxing."

 "...Um."

 After hearing what Hayashi Yoshiki said, Ran Mouri nodded.

 When she put on the boxing gloves, she thought a lot - mainly about her unreliable father and her missing childhood sweetheart. When she thought of these things, Mao Lilan's fists hardened.

 At first, the onlookers didn't think a little girl could be that strong, until--

 --------------Bang!

 There was a loud bang.

 There were even ripples visible to the naked eye that spread outward between Ran Mouri's fist and the target, and the movement was so loud that even the pieces of paper that fell to the ground trembled.

 "It's 400 points."

 Ran Mouri took off her boxing gloves and looked at her results with some joy.

 .....She didn't seem to think that 400 points was just the limit of the machine and not hers.

 This was also the first time that Hayashi Yoshiki witnessed the power of Ran Mouri's fist. How should I put it? It was really shocking.

 Ran Mouri turned around and suddenly realized that as a girl, she might be considered a bit barbaric for getting such a high score...

 "That's amazing, Ran Mouri."

 "...It's just okay."

 Seeing the smile on Hayashi Yoshiki's face, Ran Mouri breathed a sigh of relief. She smiled and looked at Conan, who seemed a little frightened: "Conan, do you want to try it too?"

 "No, I need to go to the bathroom."

 After Conan finished speaking, he ran away on his short legs.

 Looking at his back that suddenly slipped away, Ran Mouri couldn't help but mutter: "Did I scare him?"

 "That shouldn't be the case, but Ran Mouri's punch just now was indeed very cool."

 "Eh... no way."

 "Wait a minute, I need to go to the bathroom too."

 Thinking that Conan should meet Tequila by now, Hayashi Yoshiki followed him.

 On the other side,

 Tequila had just walked out of the bathroom, and with just one leg, her tall body knocked down Conan, who was not looking at the road. Her dark outfit and fierce aura caught Conan's attention.

 He didn't think much about it at first, but after coming out of the bathroom, he found Tequila taking away the suitcases of the Mantangtang employees at the front desk - because he could see that the other party was not an employee of the company, Conan subconsciously followed him.

 result--

 "Hello? It's us."

 "Tequila."

 "The deal has been completed. Don't worry, Vodka. Please also notify Gin for us."

 Tequila was standing in the corner, talking on the phone.

 The moment he heard the names of the two drinks, Conan, who was standing in front of the vending machine and pretending to buy a bottle of drink, felt his hand tremble, and his wallet and change fell to the ground.

 The people from that organization--!?

 He was shocked.

 The noise instantly caught Tequila's attention. He glanced over with a fierce look, but when he found out it was just a little kid, he relaxed his guard and ignored it.

 However, Hayashi Yoshiki came over at this time.

 "Conan, are you here?"

 He looked at the money scattered on the ground, touched Conan's head, smiled and leaned over to help him pick up the wallet and change - and when Tequila saw an adult coming, he simply hung up the phone and left.

 Conan's face turned anxious.

 He finally caught the organization's tail again, and was planning to take the opportunity to plant a bug under Tequila's feet while he was picking up change.

 "Hayashi Yoshiki, I'll go first--"

 In a fit of anger, he just wanted to install the bug on the other party.

 But he was caught by Hayashi Yoshiki.

 "Don't run around like this in crowded places. Also, you should pick up dropped items yourself instead of relying solely on others for help."

 "but--"

 Conan was anxious, but he couldn't refute Hayashi Yoshiki's preaching.

 He had no choice but to squat down to pick up the coins and wait for another opportunity to follow Tequila. At this time, Hayashi Yoshiki sent a text message to Gin.

 Tequila, who had left with the box, returned to the bathroom.

 He found a compartment and prepared to open the box to confirm whether there was any problem with the list inside - the content of this transaction was to buy the list of the most talented programmers in the world from the employees of Mantiantang. The organization attached great importance to this matter, and Tequila did not want to make any mistakes.

 But just as he was about to open it, his phone suddenly rang.

 "Don't open the box! Tequila"

 "ah?"

 The moment Tequila realized it was Gin's voice on the other end of the phone, he was a little confused.

 "Cointreau said there's a bomb in the box you have. Don't open it if you don't want to die."

 "Varied--!?"

 bomb?

 Tequila looked down at the suitcase on his lap, sweat breaking out on his forehead.

 He didn't know who Cointreau was, but he didn't think Gin would do something without a purpose... If the suitcase really contained a bomb and was opened, he would probably be blown to pieces in this small compartment.

 "Is this true or false?"

 "Bring that box back first."
