Ke Xue: Ai-chan and I have an agreement

Yokohama District, a villa located in the suburbs.

In the dim room, a man wearing a knitted hat stared at the computer in front of him.

The light from the screen fell on the face with clear lines, bringing out a hint of coldness.

On the screen is a photo of Yuichi Shiina and Conan.

Shuichi Akai was very curious why someone like Yuichi Shiina would get involved with children.

There is nine out of ten things wrong here.

So in order to figure out the twists and turns, he took the initiative to investigate Conan and the Maori family.

It’s worth mentioning that none of the Maori family had any problems.

It's a very clean ordinary family.

But Conan's words... were a complete mystery. No matter how he checked, any records of this kid were false.

But his biological parents once secretly showed up.

When we investigate the couple further, we will find that they also have a blank slate.

This is a very strange thing.

But...Conan lived in Kogoro Mouri's house, but never did anything strange.

Later, after careful observation by Shuichi Akai.

He found that although Conan was a little kid, he was very smart.

Too smart to even be a child.

He is a very intelligent adult.

Although it was strange, Shuichi Akai had to accept this fact.

However, speaking of this kid named Conan, he had heard about it from Mingmei.

As he observed, a very bright and perceptive child.

I did see him once last time on the bus, but his target that time was Shiina Yuichi.

So he didn't care that much about Conan.

But judging from the information he has been able to find so far.

This little boy has appeared at the same crime scene with Yuichi Shiina many times.

There must be some other reason.

If it had happened before, he would have thought he was crazy.

I actually thought that a little brat was colluding with someone like Shiina Yuichi.

But while he was investigating, he suddenly thought of someone.

That's Mingmei's sister.

Miyano Shiho.

As a survivor who was able to survive after taking APTX4869, Shuichi Akai believed that the little boy named Conan probably survived for this reason.

Although Miyano Shiho never took the initiative to mention Kudo Shinichi, Akai Shuichi has never been a simple person.

As long as it is something he wants to investigate, he will be able to find out the truth.

But the final result made him a little disappointed.

He went through a lot of investigation before he finally identified Conan's true identity.

A former famous high school detective.

Kudo Shinichi.

Japanese police savior.

The Sherlock Holmes of the Heisei era.

These titles do sound intimidating.

But in fact, Shuichi Akai had no interest in this at all.

His original intention was actually to see if there was anything about Kudo Shinichi that the organization cared about.

Otherwise, how did he take APTX4869?

Therefore, Shuichi Akai determined that this little kid had a secret.

Otherwise, Shiina Yuichi wouldn't stay with him, which doesn't make sense.

However, when we get to the bottom of this matter, we have to talk about another person.

Gin: It’s just a matter of convenience.

Jingle bell bell~

The cell phone next to me suddenly rang.

Akai Shuichi picked up the phone and put it to his ear.

"Hey?"

"Xiu, the matter has been resolved. The local branch of the organization has been destroyed, but their influence is indeed widespread."

It was Judy's voice on the other end of the line.

Akai Shuichi's expression remained unchanged, and he slowly said, "I understand. Is there anything else you want to report?"

Shuichi Akai had no doubt at all that Judy would lead the team to destroy the World Snake's distribution forces in the United States.

After all, the other party is also a first-class investigator.

If he didn't have this ability, how could he be qualified to join him in tracking down the winery?

"Yes." Judy paused on the phone, then continued, "Can we consider Shiina Yuichi's original proposal?"

Hearing this, Akai Shuichi's face showed a slight fluctuation and his thoughts began to drift away.

When they were at the ski resort, Yuichi Shiina took the initiative to reveal to them things about the World Snake Organization.

Although it was free help, he also made a small request.

That is to provide him with a legal identity in the future.

Although they did not agree to him immediately, Shiina Yuichi still took the initiative to reveal the distribution of the World Snake Organization to Judy.

It seemed that he was just in a whim and didn't care too much about this so-called legal identity.

But now it seems that this condition has become something they have to consider.

"Judy, in your opinion, is that guy Shiina Yuichi worthy of trust?"

Shuichi Akai thought for a while and then asked on the phone.

Judy answered quickly, as if she had been waiting for him to ask this question.

"I think so. Shiina Yuichi has more information than we thought."

"That's something we can take advantage of, and by connecting with him, we can learn more about that organization."

"Ever since you left that organization, our pursuit of them has been unsatisfactory."

"Although we almost caught Gin several times, we must also admit that this organization is much more difficult to deal with than the World Serpent."

"And Shiina Yuichi is a great insider."

Judy explained her thoughts and analysis in detail.

After these words, Shuichi Akai had to think about his relationship with Yuichi Shiina.

To be honest, he didn't want to have anything to do with that guy Shiina Yuichi at all.

I guess the two of them were born to not get along.

Amuro: Me too.

But now it seems that if they can pull Shiina Yuichi into their camp, the help they can provide will undoubtedly be huge.

"show?"

Just when Shuichi Akai was still thinking, Judy's voice came from the phone again.

"Have you heard about the big board?"

Akai Shuichi frowned slightly, "Is it the recent arrest of a large criminal gang? I only saw the report."

"No." Judy retorted, "That's the branch of World Serpent left in Japan."

"At that time, Shiina Yuichi was acting together with the public security."

Hearing these words, Shuichi Akai's mind not only saw the face of Yuichi Shiina, but also a very annoying face of a public security officer.

Could it be that these two guys got mixed up with each other?

Suddenly, Shuichi Akai's unhappiness doubled.

But that's not what Judy wanted to say.

Instead, Yuichi Shiina was a member of a scavenger organization, and this time he actually helped the Japanese police arrest Owl.

The ace member of the Scavenger Organization.

This means that what Shiina Yuichi said before is very likely to be true.

He needed a legal identity to break away from the mediation between these organizations.

Similarly, this also indirectly shows that Yuichi Shiina is very likely to have considered leaving the Scavenger Organization.

On the dark web, the reputation of the scavenger organization has also plummeted.

Because the conflict between it and the World Serpent is rapidly intensifying, especially in the Middle East, the fierce fighting and gunfights that have broken out between the two forces have implicated many innocent civilians.

The mask of hypocrisy that had been hanging for a long time was suddenly torn off one day, causing disgust from both the black and white worlds.

So far, even though two World Serpent strongholds have been destroyed, they can still gain the upper hand over the Scavengers.

And the FBI has always hated these mysterious transnational criminal organizations.

I wish I could eliminate all these organizations as soon as possible.

However, the information they have is limited, and what they can do is very limited.

But if they could win over Yuichi Shiina, Judy felt that they could dismantle these two organizations in a very short time.

Make the lives of these investigators a little easier.

After all, just tracking down one winery is exhausting enough, and now all kinds of monsters keep popping up.

If we could take advantage of the intensified conflict between the two organizations and launch a wave of looting and wipe out everything in one swoop.

There will definitely be unexpected gains.

This is what Judy was thinking.

However, if he wants his plan to be implemented smoothly, he must obtain Shuichi Akai's consent.

Only if two investigators agree unanimously will their plan be highly recognized by the higher-ups.

After Judy finished speaking, there was a long silence on the phone.

About ten minutes passed.

Akai Shuichi's voice came from the phone.

"Judy, I'm on board with your plan,"

"Really?" Judy's tone was obviously filled with excitement.

"Yes, you will still be responsible for the connection work, but I cannot lack anything I need. This is my minimum standard."

"I understand. Leave the negotiations to me. We are old partners and I know him well!"

Judy replied confidently.

Only the two of them had a brief chat about work.

He hung up the phone.

Shuichi Akai held his phone in his hand, his eyes fixed on the figure of Yuichi Shiina on the computer screen.

A face that looked fairly passable was now filled with impatience.

He seemed to be very upset about seeing Conan.

And at this moment... the same expression appeared on his face.

Then let’s have a formal cooperation.

Don't let me down, Yuichi Shiina.
