The Split-Actress in Conan's World

Rena Mizunashi, an active host of Nichimi TV, is on the rise in her career due to her beautiful looks and outstanding personal abilities.

In addition to this glamorous identity, in fact, she is also a code member of the organization in secret.

Code name Kiel.

As an intelligence officer, she gained a lot of conveniences through her identity as a TV host and was considered a celebrity in the organization.

Because of this, she was notified to be temporarily assigned to the Gin team to participate in this major operation.

However, this did not make her excited, on the contrary, she was extremely calm.

Even a little bit scared.

To be honest, she doesn't have much enthusiasm for climbing up. Instead, she is very satisfied with her current situation. It's good enough as long as she can maintain a certain sense of existence without being targeted by others.

But there is no way, you can’t avoid what is coming.

She actually has a deeper role behind her roles as both Keel and Rena Mizunashi.

Hondou Eikai is an undercover agent sent into the organization by the CIA.

In fact, she was sent into the organization with her father Ethan Hondou to take root, but during an operation with a new CIA liaison four years ago, she failed to discover the transmitter hidden on her clothes that the organization used to monitor new members, and the secret contact between the two was exposed.

In order to save her life and eliminate the organization's suspicion of her, her father Ethan Hondou injected her with a truth serum, bit off his wrist and shot himself, leaving behind a pre-recorded interrogation of Rena Mizunashi that did not record her voice, thus faking the traces of Rena Mizunashi's counterattack.

In the end, the organization members who came to investigate mistakenly judged that "Kil found Ethan suspicious and brought him out for interrogation, but was controlled by him instead. Even after being injected with truth serum, he still remained determined and did not reveal any information. He bit off Ethan's wrist and snatched his pistol to kill him." As a result, Rena Mizunashi regained the trust of the organization and was promoted step by step.

But she did not feel happy because the price of all this was her father's life.

The CIA, to which she served, only sent her a cold pension. A decent funeral, the reputation of a hero, and everything her father believed in did not receive the treatment it deserved.

She is tired.

In recent days, the CIA agents who were in contact with her had expressed their dissatisfaction, consciously or unconsciously, believing that her activities in the organization did not bring enough valuable intelligence.

She was too lazy to care and let them urge her. She worked well in the organization while looking for her brother whom she had separated from many years ago.

The days passed by so dully. It seemed that being an undercover agent was not as glorious as imagined. One still had to kill people and work hard for a few taels of money.

If you insist, the undercover work of the CIA and the criminal activities within the organization are not as generous as the salary that Nichiuri TV pays to Rena Mizunashi.

If it hadn't come to the point, she would have even wanted to cancel this major operation.

Unfortunately, no matter how much you obey orders and ignore warnings, some things cannot be avoided.

Recently, there have been frequent knocks on the door of the apartment where she lives, but every time she opens the door, there is no one there.

After a few days, she became more concerned and installed a camera on the peephole, hoping to take a picture of the person knocking on the door.

However, the knock on the door still sounded as usual, but after checking the footage, it was discovered that there was no one in the camera!

This made her alert and she began to wonder if the organization was suspicious of her, but then she thought about the organization's style of doing things. They probably couldn't do such a mysterious thing. If they had the time, they would have threatened her directly with a gun.

Then she thought of the CIA. Could it be that their people were dissatisfied with her passive attitude to a certain extent and came to warn her?

After much guessing, she still had no clue, and her body became more and more haggard.

Yoko Okino, who also had a filming job at Nichiren TV and had a good relationship with her, introduced her to a private detective named Kogoro Mori, who was said to be very powerful.

With the mentality of trying everything possible, she sent a commission to the firm. As a result, that afternoon, Kogoro Mori came with his high school daughter and the little boy who was living in his house.

Then after some investigation and surveillance, the criminal was finally caught.

He is a little boy with a mushroom head.

The child would run to her door early every morning and knock on it, then hide again, just to get her to get up so that she wouldn't miss the "7 AM News" she hosted.

When asked why he played such a prank, the child said aggrievedly:

"A lot like my mother..."

"My mother died in a traffic accident last year..."

The little boy got up early every day and knocked on the door to wake her up because he saw a girl who looked similar to his mother and didn't want to miss Rena Mizunashi's show on TV. He was worried that she would not be able to catch the show.

Mizunashi Rena's expression couldn't help but soften as she watched the little boy sniffling and looking at her timidly, their fingers entwined nervously, and she thought of her younger brother who she had been separated from at a very young age.

"Little brother, I know you are lonely because mom is gone..."

"But if you keep relying on me like this, my mother in heaven will be worried."

She squatted down, pressed the little boy's shoulders, and said seriously: "Boys should be strong and not let their mothers worry."

"So... please don't come here again, for your mother's sake and for your own sake."

"Okay?"

The little boy nodded with tears in his eyes, biting his lip and wiping his tears with his sleeve.

"But..." Mizunashi Rena touched his head and suddenly laughed, "I will always host the show on time, so don't worry."

"Ok!"

The little boy looked at her with emotion, ran back to the door of his home, turned around, waved his hand and shouted: "Goodbye, big sister!"

"Goodbye."

Mao Lilan keenly noticed that when Mizunashi Rena stood up, she quietly wiped the corners of her eyes.

Noticing her gaze, Mizunashi Reina smiled sheepishly: "Ah, sorry..."

"Because I used to have a brother who was similar to him."

Without going into further details on the topic, she bowed to Kogoro Mori, thanked him, and said that she would immediately transfer the agreed fee to him.

However, Uncle Maori was unusually gentlemanly. He understood that Rena Mizunashi lived alone in a luxury apartment and was worried about this kind of "knocking on the door" incident, so he refused the balance.

"You've already treated us to dinner, haven't you? Wow, this is the best home-cooked meal I've had in years..."

In fact, the main reason was that Uncle Maori had completed a big commission not long ago and received a reward of three million, so he didn't care much about this insignificant amount.

It is quite good to use it to become a beautiful and popular hostess.
