Chapter 827 Matsumoto Kiyonaga's Workplace Rollercoaster

On the other side.........................

After leaving Suzuki Jirokichi's side, Lin Jiayou did not immediately give up on this airship trip..........................

He found a restroom, stopped, and prepared to change his clothes and disguise himself.

It wasn't that he particularly liked the airship; he was simply a little worried about Gin...

Don't get me wrong, he and Gin have absolutely no complicated relationship.

If this airship only carried Phantom Thief Kid and those mercenaries, Lin Jiayou could simply let it go and go home for a good night's sleep, but...

After all, Amuro Tooru is also here this time...

Although Bourbon had failed many times at their hands, and had lost a large number of Japanese public security agents, ....................

Lin Jiayou still dared not underestimate his abilities........

After all, judging from the original work, he was one of the few undercover agents who could remain hidden within the organization; his skill level is undeniable.

This guy has excellent observation skills, great camouflage techniques, decent marksmanship, and close-quarters combat skills comparable to Shuichi Akai....................

Calling him an all-around warrior wouldn't be an exaggeration at all.

Admittedly, none of his abilities are top-tier.

In terms of disguise, he's no match for Vermouth, who possesses the art of disguise...

In terms of marksmanship with a pistol, he's not as good as Gin or Kogoro Mouri...

As for close combat, the gap between him and the world's top level is even greater.............................

However, just because he's not number one in everything doesn't mean he's really bad...

On the contrary, it was precisely because of this all-around proficiency that Lin Jiayou still took Amuro Tooru seriously.

At least, leaving Gin alone to face him made Lin Jiayou uneasy; it felt somewhat dangerous...

Furthermore, the airship is a completely enclosed space. If Amuro Tooru disregards everything and summons a large number of helicopters to surround it, Gin will have nowhere to escape...

If we include Lin Jiayou himself...........................

Well, of course, he still couldn't do much about that huge fleet of helicopters. At best, he could just casually remove a few large steel bars and pillars from the airship and throw them out like they were extraterrestrial objects, damaging a few of the helicopters...

but...........................

After Lin Jiayou disguised himself, he was now in the shadows, able to contact Vodka at any time and have him arrive by helicopter.

If all else fails, Lin Jiayou could just grab Gin and jump off the plane; that would give him a chance to escape.

In short, it's safer to go aboard and take a look...

But who should I disguise myself as...?

Lin Jiayou pondered for a moment.

He's actually not a good candidate for using disguise techniques—a fact that Kaito Kid had already told him when he first obtained the disguise techniques from him...

The reason has nothing to do with Lin Jiayou's skills. His disguise skills are already extremely high; whether it's the making of human skin masks or his voice-changing techniques, they are already on par with Kuroba Kaito's........................

but................................

He's just too tall..............................

Disguise techniques are generally compatible with higher levels of skill, but compatibility with lower levels is much more difficult...

For example, a person who is 1.7 meters tall can easily disguise themselves as someone who is 1.8 meters tall by simply installing a few height-increasing devices...

However, it's very difficult for someone who is 1.9 meters tall to pretend to be 1.7 meters tall.

That's not something you can do simply by bending your thigh a little................................

Unless, of course, there's a significant height difference, like when Shimabukuro Kimie disguised herself as his elderly lady—someone under 1.3 meters tall...

Therefore, although Lin Jiayou could easily change his appearance, however...

The height difference can't be too big............................

Simply put, he can impersonate someone else, but that person's height must be at least 1.85 meters or taller.

Therefore, Lin Jiayou believed that Shimabukuro Kimie had more potential and was more useful to the organization than himself...

Because his little apprentice could range in height from 1.6 meters to around 1.85 meters...

Looking back, Lin Jiayou was currently contemplating which target he should impersonate in order to infiltrate the airship...

First, we definitely need to rule out Shiro Suzuki, a member of the Suzuki family............................

The reason is simple. First, the height difference between him and Lin Jiayou is too great.

Lin Jiayou is 1.9 meters tall, while Suzuki Shiro is only about 1.6 meters tall, probably both less than 1.7 meters...

In terms of the hard requirements, he doesn't quite meet them....................................

Furthermore, Jirokichi Suzuki and Sonoko Suzuki were far too familiar with Shiro Suzuki, especially Jirokichi, who had known Shiro Suzuki for decades.

Lin Jiayou wasn't confident he could fool this seemingly confused but actually quite shrewd old man...

Secondly, excluding tall men within the organization—

Tequila, Ireland........................

The reason is simple: even if they were disguised as them, it simply doesn't make sense logically or rationally.

Since you're coming, you should have come sooner rather than later. Joining the airship at this time is bound to arouse suspicion.

And so, Lin Jiayou began to ponder which target he could disguise himself as...................................

A moment later, a figure appeared in his mind...................................

Ten minutes later.......................

A man with a scarred face and a menacing look, dressed in a suit, emerged from a toilet stall in the men's restroom.

Not long after he came out, he mingled directly into a group of 'suit-clad thugs' who looked intimidating just by looking at them...

"Manager Matsumoto!"

As Nakamori Ginzo led a group of Investigation Division 2 police officers, preparing to board the airship, his eyes widened in shock at the menacing supervisor who suddenly appeared before him...

He extended his hand, quickly saluted the newly appointed manager, and greeted him loudly...................................................

"Ah."

Lin Jiayou, disguised as Matsumoto Kiyonaga, didn't say much, but simply nodded slightly to Nakamori Ginzo.

Yes, this Matsumoto manager was the target he had disguised himself to after much deliberation.....................................

In terms of physique, Matsumoto Kiyotaka's height is similar to his; unless you measure him with a ruler, you absolutely cannot tell the difference.............................

Logically speaking, Matsumoto Kiyonaga's position at this time is also very suitable.

Why do we say "at this time"?

That's because Matsumoto Kiyoharu's experiences over the past year have been nothing short of legendary—

He was suddenly promoted from the position of supervisor of the First Investigative Division to the position of head of the First Investigative Division........................

This sudden promotion left even him, the person directly involved, feeling utterly bewildered...

However, this is not the end............................

Not long after he was promoted, one of the investigation divisions under his command got into trouble...

In fact, this matter is somewhat related to Lin Jiayou—

During a team-building trip, they encountered a primary school teacher who was about to commit murder...................

Lin Jiayou not only didn't stop it, but also used the incident to his advantage, successfully dragging the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department into the mess...

Then, taking advantage of Toshiya Odagiri's situation, he made Toshiro Odagiri, who was in charge of resolving the matter, look extremely embarrassed...

However, Toshiro Odagiri is, after all, the head of the Criminal Investigation Department, and one of the few capable and intelligent police officers known to the higher-ups; he wouldn't possibly take the blame...

And so, Matsumoto Kiyonaga, who had just been promoted to head of the First Investigation Division, was in trouble..........................
