The Phantom Thief of Heart! But Conan.

In the war room without their leader, all the members of the Phantom Thieves sat around the table, staring at each other in silence.

Among them were the first three who joined the team who knew the seriousness of the matter and had particularly serious expressions, and there were also the others who were at a loss and confused. They were completely confused as to why Asai Narimi not only requested a small meeting, but also had to avoid Tang Ze to talk.

"I introduced everything when I was notified just now." Asai Chengmi, who took the lead in organizing the meeting, coughed and said, "Everyone, do you have any ideas?"

"That..." Zhu Fu Jingguang looked around and spoke first to break the silence.

"Just ask whatever you want to ask. No need to raise your hand." Asai Narimi held his forehead with his hand.

"Oh," Zhu Fujingguang, who subconsciously raised his hand, put it down embarrassedly, "Uh, I just heard what you said. Someone reported on the Phantom Thief Channel that the director of the Beihua Library might be involved in the gray drug industry. It's not clear what exactly was transported, but it must be illegal anyway."

"Yes, I did some searching based on the information provided by the message poster, and what he said is very likely true." Asai Narimi gestured to his phone, "According to the message Noah replied, it is possible that the other party may have used his position to provide smuggling routes."

"I have no doubts about this part. The problem is..." Zhu Fujingguang frowned, "Why is there any need to hide from Tang Ze? Doesn't Tang Ze want to deal with this kind of case?"

"No, on the contrary, he is too happy to get involved in this kind of case." Miyano Akemi held her forehead.

"Last time, the case in my hometown... Oh, new friends may not know this yet. To put it simply, my father was once an internationally renowned pianist, but his childhood friend took advantage of my father's performances abroad to hide white powder in my father's piano and smuggle it out. My father found out about this, and my family was killed by them."

Hagiwara Kenji, who was confused, sat up straight upon hearing this.

Matsuda Jinpei did give him a brief introduction to the members of the group. After all, they were teammates he would be living with for a long time, so he knew a few things. For example, apart from the three of them, those seemingly harmless handsome men and beautiful women all had complicated origins, and many of them had blood on their hands.

-Oh, of course, this also includes Zhu Fu Jingguang, this guy went undercover in a criminal organization as a sniper... What an unimaginable life experience.

However, Matsuda Jinpei has not explained their specific origins and how they were brought back by Karasawa. When Hagiwara Kenji heard Asai Narimi describe his past so lightly, he was stunned.

"Then, as you all know, after I was adopted by a couple in Tokyo, I wanted to investigate the cause of my father's death, so I changed my identity and returned to my hometown, and discovered this fact. After I found out, I continued to investigate secretly, and finally found an opportunity to take action." Asai Narimi raised his wrist, as if brushing off the dust on his hand, and raised his fingers casually, "I wanted to kill them. Tang Ze found me at this time."

Hagiwara Kenji opened his mouth and said, "He stopped you?"

"He helped me." Asai Narimi answered tactfully.

Having already witnessed the extent of Tang Ze's help once, Kenji Hagiwara understood immediately and was hesitant to speak.

What this means is that when Karasawa faced Asai Narimi's situation, just as he had said before when he was watching the fight between the detective and the magician in the RV, he reached out to the party he thought was right according to what he believed was justice.

"These are not the main points." Ignoring the tangled expression on Hagiwara Kenji's face, Asai Narimi changed the subject, "I originally thought that Karasawa came to the island because he noticed the unreasonable changes in the cognitive space there and noticed my situation, but after a while, Hoshikawa and Akemi told me that they discovered the abnormality after landing on the island. Karasawa investigated on his own after finding the letter of commission I sent to Detective Mori, and discovered that this case was related to drugs, and suddenly he became very actively involved..."

"So Tang Ze intervened in your affairs not to help you get revenge, but because they are drug dealers." Matsuda Jinpei stroked his chin, "Well, because of your parents' case and research? I heard about this from Xingchuan."

"No, that's my personal problem." Xingchuan Hui shook his head, "I have taken a lot of similar drugs before. If it weren't for Tang Ze... I didn't do it for any righteous purpose, it was just my subjective emotion. As for the leader, I don't know why he did this either."

Miyano Akemi held her chin in her hand and added, "We compared the information later and found that Karasawa was indeed too active that time. Detective Maori received the letter of commission sent by Cheng Shi when he was struggling. At that time, Karasawa was inseparable from Detective Maori and the others. If he wanted to participate closely, he didn't have to find a special reason to leave them."

"Not only did he prepare a special vehicle for landing on the island, he asked Noah to sneak into the island through another world, and..." Xingchuan Hui struggled with the words for a while, and finally described it this way, "Moreover, the ship was actually equipped with heavy firepower weapons that could kill half of the island. That was the first time I saw him bring all his sniper rifles with him."

Kumail, who had a sniper buff, of course had a lot of sniper rifles. Some of them were stolen from the organization, some from the FBI, and finally from Furuya Rei who applied for them through some unknown channel... Hmm? After counting with my fingers, it seems that none of them were bought with money.

Shaking his head to get rid of the strange thoughts, Xingchuan Hui continued: "In addition to contacting Cheng Shi, he also repeatedly ran to Conan to hint and kept telling him that there was something wrong with this island from the root. Judging from the results, the message conveyed by Tang Ze did play a significant role."

Conan obtained the information by mediating between the two sides and expressed it through the attitude of Kogoro Mori, which eventually allowed the Investigation Section to wipe out Tsukikage Island.

Now, after being thoroughly plowed by the police and thieves, the atmosphere on Moon Shadow Island has cleared up, and it has found a new way to make a living, which is doing quite well.

"It's not entirely true that he didn't consider my problem at all, but the reason why he was so on high alert and prepared as if facing a formidable enemy was definitely not because of me." Asai Chengji spread his hands calmly, "I wanted to kill those people because of personal grudges, not for any lofty purpose. Tang Ze supported me without hesitation, but it must have been partly due to their identities."

After hearing this analysis, the others who were not present at the scene all lowered their heads in deep thought.

Drug dealers are criminals, and because the profits driving them are particularly huge, they are a group that is particularly involved in the black industry. It is normal for people on the right path to hate and dislike them.

But for them, it is rare to find someone like Tang Ze who has a deep hatred for them.

Japan's anti-drug efforts are not weak, but due to their rather bizarre drug regulatory issues, drug abuse is very common. Not to mention their miraculous effects and the ridiculous dosages of painkillers and cold medicines, there is even abuse of opioids in cosmeceuticals.

Overall, I am not afraid of these issues.

Zhu Fu Jingguang, who had lowered his head to listen for a while, spoke slowly: "In this case, I think the problem now is not how to prevent Tang Ze from getting emotional and overacting after he finds out. He has always been overacting. The problem now is, since he is so overacting, why didn't he pay attention to the curator. To be honest, because of the drugs provided by Tang Ze and the people who organized the drug smuggling channels in the past who were apparently silenced but were actually taken away by the Zero Group, he and Zero have already dealt with the surrounding related industries."

He used a relatively neutral word, but Hoshikawa Teru and Miyano Akemi, who had seen Tang Ze's almost hyperactive state of mental concentration, immediately thought of Tang Ze holding a submachine gun in one hand, a sniper on his shoulder, and holding two grenades in the other hand, grinning and killing people.

...It's not that their imaginations are too rich, it's just that Tang Ze's mental state at the time was pretty much the same.

"Since you don't want to tell Tang Ze, why don't you talk to Zero about it?" Zhu Fujingguang tilted his head and said uncertainly, "To him, this is considered as someone overstepping the boundaries."

This sounds outrageous, but he is not joking, he is serious.

Well, although the real situation is not like this, Furuya Rei just found a reasonable excuse, saying that he was interested in this industry and then began to uproot them. But for the gray and black industry world, in their eyes, the biggest drug lord in Beika Town now should theoretically be Bourbon himself.

Suddenly, a bastard in this business showed up in Beika Town, and it even sounded like he wanted to use his identity to cause some big trouble. It was very strange that Bourbon and Kumail didn't make any move.

----

In the cafe over here, Tang Ze, who has no idea that someone is analyzing the logic of his behavior frame by frame, is still communicating with Amuro Toru.

The two of them stood in the kitchen, preparing orders for the evening cafe and their own dinners, chatting about something that was quite annoying if you listened carefully.

When Azusa Enomoto is not around, there are only the two of them in the restaurant's kitchen, and the confidentiality is surprisingly effective in the busy coffee shop.

While thawing the meat and preparing flour for bread, they chatted about some semi-metaphysical things, and as they talked, the topic naturally extended to medicine.

With the participation of Shirley, a pharmaceutical talent, although Team Zero does not have scientific research capabilities, it has outsourced a lot of work. With their unremitting support, Haibara Ai has made good progress recently. There is even extra funding to look up the therapeutic drugs that the Karasawa couple used on Karasawa and try to restore them.

Tang Ze herself refused to admit it, but she felt that her cousin was not mentally normal and the medicine could not be stopped.

"...I understand your feelings, but you should be more restrained." When talking about this, Amuro Toru felt a headache. He shook off the flour on his hands, "You have almost blown up half of the laboratories in Tokyo, big and small. That's enough. If you keep doing this, Shirley will be portrayed as a dark intelligence worker by you."

Ever since the encounter with Curacao in Osaka, the organization's research institute in Tokyo has suffered an unprecedented setback.

Some of them were reported as losses due to various "accidents", including but not limited to fire, failure to pass fire-fighting procedures, problems in transferring experimental samples leading to contamination and leakage, etc., while many of the other parts were destroyed by the organizations on their own initiative.

Because there is always new evidence, just like the discovery that Miyano Shiho had mistakenly sent a floppy disk with experimental data to Professor Hirota, proving that some organizations thought she was unaware of the laboratory, but she was actually aware of it.

Since the traitor is still at large, these laboratories are naturally unsafe. The organization, which regards confidentiality as its top priority, has begun to destroy and transfer evidence vigilantly. As a result, there have been many fires and explosions in Tokyo recently.

This transfer will never end. Even Gin, who was busy blowing up the laboratory, probably didn't expect that one day he would need an emergency evacuation that would last a long time.

After a lot of back and forth, in the end, the only ones who made a lot of money were the demolition team and the decoration team in Tokyo.

Tang Ze never admitted this, but after careful counting, Amuro Toru found that no one else would do this except Tang Ze.

It's not easy for Curacao to survive under Rum's control, let them go...

"She is." Tang Ze shook his gloved fingers, picked up a piece of bread from the chopping board and ate it, correcting him. "If it weren't for her, the core secrets of my father's research would have been difficult to avoid being leaked to the organization. I've never seen anyone more tight-lipped than her."

Speaking of keeping his mouth shut, throughout the entire original work, he really only admires Haibara Ai.

First of all, she keeps her mouth shut, and secondly, if anyone finds out something is wrong, there will naturally be the magical death buff and eyebrow pencil halo to help them keep their mouth shut.

It shouldn't be surprising to Tang Ze that Haibara Ai was able to escape alive with his parents' inheritance.

"And the more things like this happen, the more capable Bourbon, who is away from the experimental line, appears. Isn't this a good thing?" Tang Ze spread his hands with a smile, turned around, and put another baking tray into the oven.

"Are you saying that you're going to turn me into the biggest gang boss around here? Then thank you." Amuro Toru gave him a displeased look at his busy back.

"Look at Rum, he made himself look like a mafia boss, you should also make yourself look like the emperor of the underworld, the dark Moriarty, isn't that in line with Bourbon's image..." Tang Ze adjusted the knob and teased, "By the way, you can also do the duties of a policeman, right?"

Although it is generally the police who are the bad guys and protect the bad guys, the situation is almost the same in reverse.

A reverse umbrella is still an umbrella!

"You have so many twisted ideas..." Amuro Toru rolled his eyes and when he turned his back, he secretly observed Tang Ze's expression for a while. When he found that he didn't have any extra expression, he turned back uncertainly.

This guy sounded like it was true when he said it, but why did he feel that Tang Ze was not very positive about portraying himself as a half-drug lord with an intelligence network and smuggling channels?

Tang Ze, who loves acting so much, should be very interested in this new performance occasion...
