Conan: About the fact that I have a black brother

"Hayais, let's go for a drink together after get off work?" Hagiwara Kenji was peeking out of the door of the office of the Violence Section 3, Investigation Division 1, looking for Lin Xiaochen.

"I'm here." Lin Xiaochen was holding a stack of printed mission reports in his hands, planning to ask his superior for signature. "Are you off work? So early?"

As he said this, he looked behind Hagiwara Kenji, but didn't see his inseparable young friend, "Where's Matsuda?"

"It's my turn to rest, turn to rest." Hagiwara Kenji winked at him, "I came here without telling Xiao Zhenping, don't tell anyone."

"Are you a JK? Got it." Lin Xiaochen called him with a report, "Where are you going to drink? I've already said in advance that I won't go to social gatherings."

The guy in front of him was too good at urging people to drink. For the sake of his own health, Lin Xiaochen did not dare to easily accept the other party's invitation to a social gathering.

Hagiwara Kenji looked helpless: "I know, I know, why are you using the same excuse as Xiao Zhenping?"

Lin Xiaochen looked at him with a smile that was so fake.

"I'm still busy with work. Please be considerate of Officer Hagiwara, who is on vacation."

"You promised? I'll wait for you to get off work."

Hagiwara's slightly excited voice came from behind.

Lin Xiaochen raised his hand and made an OK gesture, walked to Officer Megure's office and knocked on the door: "Officer Megure, I'm Lin."

Then he pushed the door open and walked in. Officer Megure was also sitting at his desk processing documents. Seeing him come in, he said, "Lin, are you here to hand in a report? Just put it on the table."

Officer Megure smiled kindly at this excellent and hardworking junior, which made Lin Xiaochen, who had just graduated from the police academy, a little at a loss.

Lin Xiaochen put the report down, bowed slightly and was about to leave.

Officer Megure called him over and asked, "Is there something important that the officer who just came to see you has?"

Lin Xiaochen explained: "He is Hagiwara Kenji, from the explosive ordnance disposal class, and he is also my classmate."

Officer Megure nodded.

Lin Xiaochen: "It's just a personal matter, don't worry about it."

Officer Megure didn't care: "If you have something to do, it's okay to go back first. You've been working overtime for many days, so it won't be a problem if you leave a little early."

Lin Xiaochen smiled slightly and politely declined the other party's kindness.

However, this also means that he can get off work on time today.

When I got back, Kenji Hagiwara was nowhere to be found. He must have gone to find a place to rest.

Lin Xiaochen sighed, returned to his workstation and opened the computer document, but his eyes unconsciously looked towards the taskbar.

[Main Quest: None]

[Side Mission 1: Rescue Hagiwara Kenji/Team Members]

Side quests are usually released at the last minute. The quest column was empty yesterday, but it suddenly appeared today. This means that Kenji Hagiwara will die in these few days.

Lin Xiaochen thought a lot. The death of the police officer in the explosive ordnance disposal team was nothing more than the failure of the bomb. However, Kenji Hagiwara's bomb disposal skills have always been top-notch, otherwise he would not have become the captain of the team one month after graduation.

Moreover, the slash on the mission indicates that he was not the only one who died.

So, what kind of bomb could kill an entire team of police officers?

Lin Xiaochen thought so hard that his head sank. It turned out that he was not suitable for mental work. Doomsday was more suitable for him.

Lin Xiaochen shook his head, getting rid of the inappropriate thoughts in his mind.

He opened the website and began to look up explosions in recent years.

"Lin? Are you going to work overtime today?" A colleague called him, "It seems your friends have been waiting for a long time."

Upon hearing this, Lin Xiaochen couldn't help but look at the corner of the computer screen. The time showed 5:15, which was already time to get off work.

Some colleagues around me have already started packing up and preparing to go back.

"No overtime today." Lin Xiaochen turned off the computer, stood up, and took off the suit jacket hanging on the back of the chair. "Thanks for reminding Natsume."

Natsume waved his hand to indicate that it was okay.

In the reception room on the first floor, Kenji Hagiwara and a curly-haired guy were arm in arm with their heads leaning against each other, looking at something unknown.

Lin Xiaochen walked over, knelt on one knee on the sofa, put his arms around the shoulders of the two from behind, and leaned in to take a look.

Matsuda Jinpei, who was holding the phone, quickly flipped it down and asked, "Is the busy man off work?"

"What are you looking at? You're like a thief." Lin Xiaochen put his legs down from the sofa. "Hagiwara said you're going to work today."

"I came here first because I have nothing else to do." Matsuda Jinpei said, "But we get off work earlier than the Metropolitan Police Department, so you don't have to be too envious."

Lin Xiaochen rubbed his head and said, "Who is envious? Your job is so dangerous, you must cherish your life."

"You might as well tell Hagi this." Matsuda Jinpei glared at Hagiwara Kenji, "The guy who always finds excuses not to wear explosion-proof clothing every time there is a bomb."

Lin Xiaochen also condemned the words: "This time I stand with Matsuda, it's too dangerous."

"Oh my, I get it." Hagiwara Kenji spread out his palms, looking helpless, "Nothing will happen... O--Xiao Zhenping, what are you doing!!"

Matsuda Jinpei pulled his ear and said, "As expected, you didn't take it seriously."

Kenji Hagiwara grimaced in pain, but he couldn't break free for the moment, so he could only look at Lin Xiaochen with pitiful eyes, trying to get the other person to say something nice.

However, for such a matter of principle, Lin Xiaochen would only watch Matsuda being punished, and it was already kind of him not to intervene. However, since he had received the request for help, Lin Xiaochen did not intend to just sit there and watch.

So he said dryly: "Matsuda, please be gentle, someone is watching."

He glanced at the police officers who were passing by and watching the excitement: "Pay attention to your police image."

Matsuda Jinpei let go: "I think you didn't reflect enough this time when you went home. When you return to the team the day after tomorrow, I will report this to the team leader."

Is he going home to reflect on himself?

Lin Xiaochen glanced at Hagiwara Kenji with a playful look. Hagiwara Kenji looked pleading. Lin Xiaochen smiled faintly, "Didn't we say we were going to drink? It happens to be Friday today, so we can drink later."

"That's right." Matsuda Jinpei yawned and walked out lazily, "Hagi is treating us today, so of course we have to get drunk."

"Hey, hey, you're going too far, Zhen Ping..."

"Who is going too far? Those who are not wearing explosion-proof suits have no right to say that..."

“These are two different things.”

The two of them walked away quarreling, Lin Xiaochen shook his head and chased after them with a smile.
