Conan: Goodbye, Brewery, I'm running away

After seeing that Natsuho Niino did not refuse to talk to Subaru Okiya, Professor Agasa and Ai Haibara left them a private space for conversation.

"What do you want from me, Okiya-kun?" Niino Natsuho stroked the USB drive in her pocket. Facing Akai Shuichi alone, she still felt a little scared. She wasn't scared in terms of her strength. With her body and her skills and calculations as a system, she was not inferior to him in terms of strength. She was afraid of this man's brain. He was too smart and powerful. She was afraid that she would be tricked by him.

It’s not that she didn’t have this feeling when facing Amuro Toru and Morobushi Kagemitsu. Those two shrewd people would also try to trick her into talking.

But those two people usually give her face for the sake of their host and won't go too far. Especially Amuro Toru, that guy knows that the host treats her as a sister, so even if he suffers a loss from her, he won't bother with her.

But Shuichi Akai is different. This man is like a lone wolf. As long as it is beneficial to his actions, he can even sacrifice himself.

Now, the reason that supports her to talk to Shuichi Akai alone is not only her own host, but also that this man is an upright red side no matter what.

Shuichi Akai also noticed the look in the eyes of the girl in front of him after she finished speaking, and he couldn't help laughing in his heart. Does he look that scary?

However, one should use different communication methods depending on the person. Shuichi Akai didn't want to beat around the bush like he did with other people, so he asked directly.

"Although it's a bit direct to say this, I think Niino-san would prefer me to ask directly."

After seeing the other party nod, Akai Shuichi continued: "So can I know why Niino-san came here? And, if you appear here, it means that they have also returned from there."

Having received the answer template from her host, Niino Natsuho looked at Akai Shuichi and said, "I came here just to see Ai, and to get to know Ai and the doctor. I will protect them closely in the future."

What she said was very reasonable. Regardless of Akai Shuichi's identity, her host was the one who was asked by Miyano Akemi to help take care of Haibara Ai, and she was her host's best partner!

"As for your other question, yes, they are back."

Xinye Xiasui continued according to her host's instructions: "Also, thank you for your help this time. The conditions do not allow it now. If she has time later, she will thank you in person."

As she spoke, Niino Natsuho took back the USB drive that the host asked her to bring and handed it to Akai Shuichi, "This is her extra thank you gift for this transaction."

Akai Hide took the USB drive without changing his expression and took a look at the contents in his hand. He did not ask what was in the USB drive, but continued to maintain his smiling face that belonged to Subaru Okiya. "No need to thank me in person. We are in a cooperative relationship and we all get what we want..."

He paused and said, "Besides, considering the intelligence information I have received before and this..."

Akai Shuichi pointed to the USB flash drive in his hand and said, "I have gained more than I have paid for. I should be the one thanking you."

He wasn't being polite when he said this. Whether it was Akikawa Sarina reminding him about his mother, or reminding him about the relationship between the Akai family and the Miyano family, or the information he was given this time...

All these helped him a lot, and what he did was far less than the compensation he received from the other party.

Knowing that these words were not directed at her, Niino Natsuho nodded and said, "I'll help you convey this message."

"It seems that Shinno-san has been briefed before coming here."

Akai Shuichi had already gotten the answer he wanted from Niino Natsuho's performance. He slightly restrained the smile on his face and said, "Then I won't ask any more questions."

The situation was more serious than he had thought before he came. In his opinion, the bases that the FBI had taken down in the United States would not have any particularly serious impact on the organization, so the serious situation should be due to other reasons...

Shuichi Akai's brain was working fast. Akikawa-san probably wouldn't be able to meet him recently, and Kiel had temporarily cut off contact after leaving Japan. It seemed that he needed to talk to the Japanese Public Security Bureau again and discuss further cooperation.

There is also the information obtained from Akikawa-san. Akai Shuichi pressed his finger lightly on the USB flash drive. Next, both certain classes in the United States and the FBI will face turmoil...

Before taking action against the organization, those positions must be guaranteed to be safe and reliable, so they must first clean up the internal situation...

While thinking about this, Akai Shuichi nodded to Niino Natsuho and said, "I'll trouble Niino-san to talk to the doctor later. I have something to do, so I'll take my leave now."

Seeing that the other person's expression didn't change, Niino Natsuho nodded, "Okay."

Watching Shuichi Akai leaving, Natsuho Niino stood there in a daze.

Her host just said that this person had a big brain storm in front of her.

As expected of Shuichi Akai, even with her host's reminder, she still found it magical.

There are also her host and Toru Amuro and other masters of emotion management. Humans are really amazing. They can hide their emotions so perfectly. She has been learning for a long time but has only learned the basics.

Akikawa Sarana saw that Akai Shuichi had already obtained the information that she had implicitly revealed to the other party from the words she conveyed through Hoho. After telling Tomoko, she temporarily cut off contact with Tomoko and continued to reorganize the recent intelligence information she had on hand, not missing any clues.

Before Shinno Natsuho left, Huihara Ai called her back again, "If I have time, I'd like a copy of her most recent medical examination report. I have new ideas about her physical condition."

Although Niino Natsuho has it now, she can't immediately give Huihara Ai the medical examination report. "Okay, I'll send it to you later."

Huihara Ai hesitated for a moment, "You said you wanted to protect me and the doctor, how? Besides, doesn't she need your help?"

"She doesn't need it."

Xinye Xiahui trusts her host very much. She pointed to the corner of the street and said, "As for protecting you, I will quietly move there later. If you are in danger, I will be able to rush over at the first time, and it will not affect your daily life at other times."

That location is a little distance away from the doctor's house and is not the best location for surveillance and protection.

But this location is perfect for her and will not affect her at all. She can also discover any abnormalities at the doctor's house at the first time, and can also discover any abnormalities in the people passing by in time.

Moreover, that location will not attract the attention of outsiders. After all, if they really investigate, they will only investigate the neighboring houses instead of the ones that are at a distance.
