"You're telling the truth! I didn't expect someone would actually die!"

"No way, it seems like a plot from a movie."

“Is this blood stain really not a prop?”

As more and more people gathered around, Conan increased his efficiency and searched the body of the deceased for more clues. His hard work paid off.

He took out a blood-stained mobile phone from the agent's arms. It seemed that he was checking messages before falling from the building. There were only irregular symbols on the screen, which was puzzling.

"Edogawa." Huiyuan showed a worried expression and said anxiously: "As expected, the murderer who killed that person is————"

"We'll talk about the details later." Conan turned around and looked at Huiyuan: "Listen, take them to the nearby convenience store first."

"Then call the doctor and ask him to drive over to pick you up."

"What about you? What should you do?"

"I won't go with you guys." Conan looked down at the garbled code and said, "I have to go somewhere first. I'm leaving now."

"Wait a minute! Edogawa!"

Conan was running wildly on the street, taking out his cell phone and making a call, muttering to himself why Mr. Akai's phone was always busy and no one answered his parents' calls.

Conan stood at the door of his house, shuddering in his heart, clenching his fists together: "Or... those guys have already broken into my house?"

Conan gently pushed open the door, carefully looked around to the left and right, and glanced around. There was nothing unusual at the door.

He took a deep breath, put his schoolbag aside, and moved through the corridor with bated breath. He could faintly hear the voices of strangers, and there were more than one or two of them.

Conan followed the source and finally stopped outside the study door. He mustered up his courage, pressed the doorknob, and walked inside.

The scene before him surprised him a little. The huge study was full of foreigners.

"Oh, it's you, cool boy." Judy half turned sideways: "Why are you here too? Did you notice something was wrong?"

"Teacher Judy? And Agent Mark, could it be that... these people are your companions?"

"That's right." Mark stretched his hand to one side: "They are all FBI agents, the elite among the elite."

"But...but." Conan's face was full of confusion: "Why?"

"It's a long story." Officer James slowly approached them and said, "Three days ago, one of our agents named Aaron lost contact while tracking a member of the organization."

"His body was found the next day. Then the day before yesterday and yesterday, agents were ambushed by members of the organization and unfortunately killed."

Judy added, "We usually use secret codes to contact the meeting place, so we guessed that Aaron would not reveal the method to crack the code to them."

"So, we will temporarily hide in Kudo's house to observe the situation, if the method to crack the code has really been leaked."

Judy licked her lips nervously: "Then they may know where our base is..."

"That's it..."

Mark unfolded the notebook and spread it flat on the table: "So, we will hide here until the new base is settled."

Conan didn't care about this and asked anxiously: "Excuse me, I want to ask, where are Uncle Yusaku and Aunt Yukiko? Why haven't I seen them all this time?"

James stared at Conan meaningfully, stroked his hair, and spoke kindly.

"The two of them went out to buy groceries for us. If so many of us ordered takeout, it would easily arouse suspicion."

"Besides, some of our agents are good at cooking. As long as we have the ingredients, we can solve the problem of eating."

Conan's doubts were finally resolved. No wonder the phone at home was not answered.

After Conan confirmed that his parents were safe, he returned to the topic and asked, "But, is it really that Agent Aaron who leaked the method to crack the code?"

Judy lowered her head helplessly, with a slightly sad expression: "We don't want this to happen either. Aaron is a very nice person. I don't think he would do something like this to betray us————"

"No." Akai put down the phone in his hand and said righteously: "The possibility has become lower. Our people have been keeping an eye on the hotel that was used as a base before."

"Within a one-kilometer radius of the hotel, no one was found to be monitoring the hotel. Normally, they would not force the other party to reveal the method to crack the code."

"Instead, they chose to torture us directly to find out the location of the base, and then capture all of us in one fell swoop."

James agreed: "This is indeed in line with Gin and his friends' style."

"By the way, is there any news about Jim and Chen who proposed to go to the secret meeting place?"

Judy shook her head.

"I know." Conan raised his hand.

"The agent Jim you mentioned just fell from an abandoned building and died."

"Secondly..." Conan frowned, "I also saw Vodka, he was on the roof, so based on the above, it is very likely that he pushed it down."

"what?!"

"real or fake!?"

"Jim is famous for his strong anti-reconnaissance ability. How could he..."

“No way…”

Conan went on to explain: "The reason I know this is because I happened to be passing by there at the time."

He turned sideways and looked at Shuichi Akai who was standing beside him: "So... that's why I wanted to come here and tell Mr. Akai about this."

After listening to this, James crossed his arms and looked a little uneasy: "But, if Aaron didn't reveal the method to crack the code, then what's going on..."

Conan then expressed his own opinion: "Could it be that they intercepted the mobile phone information and cracked the code directly?"

"Hmm? What do you mean?"

"Because the code refers to...the meeting place, date and specific time, right?"

"Ha!" Everyone in the FBI was stunned.

Judy slapped her palms. "So... maybe they cracked the code we've been using."

"Hmm..." Conan let out a long breath: "I took a picture of the message received on Agent Jim's phone and saw it and I understood it."

While talking, Conan took out his cell phone and showed the code to everyone: "What does this code mean."

"It's unbelievable...you kid."

The one who designed this code was Baijiu himself.
