    Join forces to defend and protect loved ones together

    Rum’s threat is still hovering in the air, and the detailed intelligence brought by Conan has completely brought this danger to the forefront.The atmosphere in the room that had just eased suddenly became tense. Everyone knew that once Rum took action, it would be a fight to the death.

    Shuichi Akai suppressed the rush in his heart and quickly sorted out his thoughts. His voice was calm and sharp: “Hideyoshi’s shogi match is public and attracts a lot of attention. Rum dare not take action directly in the stadium. The most likely way is to set up an ambush on the route. Mari is very concealed, but once the trace is locked, it will be extremely difficult to escape.”

    “He won’t just take one step.” Gin answered coldly, with a hint of coldness in his green eyes, “Rum will definitely make an attack in the east and west – deliberately creating chaos in Hideyoshi’s side to lure you to show up, and then send someone to raid Mari’s hiding place.”

    Conan pushed up his glasses and nodded in agreement: “Yes, he just wants to distract our strength and make us focus on one thing and lose another.”

    In the brief silence, the three of them were quickly calculating countermeasures.

    Gin lowered his eyes and thought for a moment, and when he raised his eyes again, he had already made up his mind: “I’m going to clean up the hidden line planted by Rum. I’m familiar with the people in the organization. I know exactly who their confidants are and what methods they usually use. As long as I’m in charge, they won’t dare to act rashly.”

    Akai Shuichi immediately frowned: “It’s too dangerous. As soon as you show up, you will completely declare war with Rum, and the entire organization’s firepower will be aimed at you.”

    “Then declare war.” Gin met his gaze and said firmly without wavering, “As long as I can protect the people you care about, I don’t care.”

    “I don’t allow it.” Akai Shuichi said flatly, “I won’t let you take such a risk alone.”

    Seeing the two of them thinking about each other, Conan coughed lightly at the right time and broke the deadlock: “Actually, we don’t need to take risks separately.”

    The two looked at him at the same time.

    Conan continued: “Dr. Ali has modified the signal jammer, which can block surveillance and communications for a short time, cutting off Rum’s eyes. Judy also agreed to mobilize the FBI to conduct secret control and block key sections under the cover of regular patrols.”

    His eyes turned between the two of them, and the plan was clear and solid: “Mr. Shuichi is responsible for protecting Hideyoshi, and Mr. Gin is guarding the key intersection near Mary. You don’t have to meet, but you can echo each other. Even if Rum wants to go east and west, he can’t find any chance.”

    This arrangement not only prevents Gin from being directly exposed to the firepower of the organization, but also maximizes his power to intimidate the organization while firmly guarding his relatives on both sides.

    Gin raised his eyebrows and looked at Akai Shuichi: “It’s feasible.”

    Akai Shuichi pondered for a moment, nodded slowly, and said with an unyielding seriousness in his tone: “Yes. But you must promise me that if the situation goes wrong, you will evacuate immediately, and you are not allowed to fight forcefully.”

    Gin Jiu looked at his tense and worried expression, her heart softened, and her tone softened unconsciously: “Okay, I promise you.”

    Seeing that the plan was completed, Conan breathed a sigh of relief and took out the marked simple map: “The action time is set on the day of Hideyoshi’s competition. We will be in position three hours in advance.”

    Shuichi Akai took the map, tapped it with his fingertips, and memorized all the key locations one by one.

    A silent defensive war against Rum was quietly laid out.

    After Conan left, the room returned to silence, with only the solemnity before the war slowly filling the air.

    Gin walked up behind Akai Shuichi and gently pressed his shoulders with a steady and reliable force: “Don’t worry, everything will go according to plan. Your family will be fine, and neither will I.”

    Akai Shuichi turned around and looked into his firm and gentle eyes, and the heartstrings that had been tense for days finally relaxed a little.

    He is no longer the lone agent who carries everything on his own.

    There are people behind him, people around him, and people above his heart.

    “Yes.” Akai Shuichi responded softly, reaching out to hold his hand, “Let’s go together.”

    Gin clasped his fingertips with her backhand, and all her anger dissipated, leaving only tenderness and firmness:

    “Okay, together.

    When this is over, we won’t have to hide anymore.”

    The night outside the window is getting darker, and the starlight is faint but firmly piercing the darkness.

    A storm is coming, and this time, they will never face it alone again.
