The Phantom Thief of Heart! But Conan

"A laboratory that is convenient for preparing dangerous goods..." Haihara Ai put down the pen in his hand and pondered for a moment, "In addition to various laboratories related to Karasuma Pharmaceutical, you can also consider university laboratories. Applied chemistry is It is a common major offered by many schools, and due to the mixed funding sources of the research team and the procurement... In short, if you want to be able to provide large quantities of drugs such as potassium cyanide and caustic soda, it is always right to keep an eye on the laboratory. "

"Smuggling firearms and arms? Well, let me write you some addresses." Shuichi Akai thought for a moment and picked up the paper at hand, "Strictly speaking, the arms we prepare here - including the ones you took away, It's not shipped through formal means, you can understand this if you think about it. In fact, the high imitation model shop is a good cover. I will give you a contact information. He is the member of our team responsible for related matters. You can contact him. one time……"

"You ask where the explosives come from? I really haven't thought about this issue." Dr. Ali was confused for a moment and scratched his naked forehead. "I rarely accept similar orders. After all, it's Dangerous things are not trustworthy people. It is difficult to ensure that the delivered finished products will be used for other purposes. Even if you ask me, it will be difficult for me to give you a specific answer... But I can give you a few URLs. There will be all kinds of weird orders and so on, and I usually receive some commissions from there..."

"Investigating what are the purchasing channels for regulated knives? What a strange question. Is this the social practice content you chose? Wait a minute. I'll go back and ask the person in charge of purchasing at home..." Suzuki Sonoko looked confused. He tilted his head, but still took out his mobile phone and started editing the email, "Let me declare in advance that my family will not buy such dangerous things, but if you want to know more about it, you can definitely find it."

…

Even the members of the Phantom Thieves who were fully aware of the development of Karasawa's connections still had expressions of surprise when they saw the thick stack of papers Karasawa took out.

"What is this?" Asai Naomi, who picked up a photocopy and flipped through a few pages, looked a little weird, "Is it the "Investigation Record of Sources and Purchase Channels of Illegal Items Involved in Cases in the Tokyo Metropolitan Area"?"

Shimabukuro Kimie looked through the things that Karasawa had brought out, with a look of surprise at how wild the streets in your city were, and murmured in a low voice: "Are there so many ways to commit crimes in Tokyo..."

Tangze, who picked up a book and was about to explain, couldn't help but look sideways.

——Oh, yes, she really has the guts to say that you Tokyoites really know how to play.

After all, this murderer followed a simple and unsophisticated approach and strangled him directly. He could be called a fundamentalist murderer without so many bells and whistles.

"If you want to understand the role of the organization in these security cases, it is easier to investigate the objects than the people." Pulling his thoughts back from the strange "dispute between murderer schools" that had gone astray, Tang Ze cleared his throat and started talking. Noah’s puppets, who worked hard to organize and compile statistics, “As long as we find a way to plug some of the holes, we can’t have Gin personally deliver all orders to our door, right? That would be considered a setback to the other party’s progress.”

"So, is this why you are so keen on destroying the organization's strongholds recently?" Miyano Akemi turned over the documents in her hand and couldn't help but close her eyes after looking at the densely packed map of Tokyo filled with various markings. Eyes, “And they are all from crowded areas.”

"Since you want to run a human business, you must have a convenient place for storage." Tang Ze spread his hands and explained his logic, "Anyway, what I do is very hidden."

"Yes, for example, when Goro Akechi was investigating a case, the suspect happened to be on the run, and he happened to pass through the passage of a certain stronghold in a panic. For example, when the police were on daily patrol, they encountered a burglary case, and it happened that the person in charge at the bottom was the one who was stolen. ..." Xingchuan Hui, who was almost dizzy after reading the document, put down the document in his hand and rubbed his eyes, "Thank you for being able to convince the police to accompany you in this drama."

"The reason is valid and the result is good for everyone, so why not?" Tang Ze showed a kind smile belonging to an instructor.

Anyway, idle time is idle. Instead of busy helping Tohru Amuro handle the organizational business in his hands, it is better to fight against match-fixing and effectively attack the organizational power.

It just so happens that you have been doing special training for so long, it’s time to have some practical lessons to test your ability in match-fixing. How can you cover up an undercover agent if you can’t pass the match-fixing?

Although the Almighty Rice Krispies Superman is reduced to Gu Zero, he usually only needs some tool people to help with investigations and do chores. This level of cooperation is not necessarily needed, but he doesn't need it, so you can't live without it, right?

"...Actually, there is a simpler way." Xingchuan Hui put aside the heavy documents in his hand, hesitated for a moment, and lowered his voice and said, "As you know, I often went in and out of various facilities of the organization in the past. Because what they do every day is not a clean job, and there is no need for a reason for the loss."

Karasawa, who was checking the statistical chart drawn by Noah, frowned slightly, raised his eyes and glanced at Hoshikawa Teru from the edge of the document.

The implication of these words is very obvious. Xingchuan Hui wants to say that the simpler way is to go directly to the real person offline.

This is what he was doing in the past. It was impossible for him to raise a completely useless illegitimate child in his mansion even though he was so good at swallowing his words. Even if he is not provided with any good material environment, it is still just a mouth, and it is a stain that may threaten his political future.

If Karasawa hadn't appeared, and Shigehiko Tonkou hadn't been strangled by the organization for his incompetence, Hoshikawa Teru's most likely outcome would have been, as he himself said, to become part of the "loss."

It is so normal for a low-level member of the underworld to quietly die in a corner of Tokyo because of the anger caused by the underworld.

Oh, there are quite a few people involved in murder cases who die suddenly. You can’t expect members of a violent group with dirty hands to be kind to others in their daily lives, like helping an old lady cross the road, right? It is difficult for such people to live long in the Kexue world.

"Although it seems very reasonable in this world to directly swing a hammer and poison as a real business war, but if there is a legal way to solve it, there is no need to use that method." Before Xingchuan Hui tried to recommend himself, Tang Ze cut off his next words directly.

Hoshikawa Hui raised his head and looked at Tang Ze across the table with a bit of stubbornness: "But that is more efficient. I am also better at this."

Karasawa, who was engaged in business wars with great fanfare, had made so many plans, but the only part he could participate in seemed to be to handle daily campus affairs for Karasawa, and from time to time participate in some fringe plans as Akechi Goro, which made Hoshikawa Teru a little frustrated.

As the only true minor in the entire Phantom Thieves group - except for Noah - he is worried that as Karasawa's power expands step by step, his role will become less and less.

In fact, he is the only minor. After all, Tangze is an old cucumber with green paint.

Tangze studied the expression on Xingchuan Hui's face for a while, then pressed his forehead.

Hoshikawa Teru's upbringing was very imperfect, and his character had many distortions. Karasawa, who accepted him, knew this very well.

Even after being brought out by himself, Xingchuan Hui did not become much healthier because of it. On the contrary, because he came into contact with powerful forces, he gave up thinking about public order and good customs.

Fortunately, he only followed Tangze's lead. Even if he lacked the sense of recognition of the logic of normal life, he would faithfully implement Tangze's decision, and there was no possibility of losing control.

This is why Tang Ze prefers to let Hoshikawa Teru go to more schools for him. Contact with normal peers will help shape his personality. Although Hoshikawa Teru may not feel it himself, after slowly joining normal social life, the extremely paranoid side of his character has gradually become calmer.

Forget it, who made me choose such a child and drag him into the water? Take your time, education is a long-term thing, don't rush it.

"Okay." Faced with Xingchuan Hui's intense eyes, Tang Ze sighed, "Then you find a stronghold that you visit most often..."

Xingchuan Hui's eyes slowly lit up.

“…go put some laxative in their water pipes.”

"...Hey, Karasawa!"

"What are you doing? This is indeed a very effective method, and it can paralyze an entire stronghold. It is much more effective than killing one or two people individually... Let go, let go, pulling the tie is too much!"

————

"You really have caused a lot of trouble for the organization."

Although he didn't know anyone in the Phantom Thieves except Teru Hoshikawa, Toru Amuro looked at Karasawa who came back from school with complicated emotions because he kept an eye on Karasawa and knew the Phantom Thieves' movements like a non-staff member.

...Maybe he didn't come back from school, because of the presence of Hoshikawa Teru, Karasawa was quite good at academics.

At least based on Toru Amuro's understanding of Karasawa's knowledge level, it was definitely not possible for Karasawa himself to do that well in the exam.

"Have you even heard about it?" Tang Ze, who was holding a cup of coffee to his lips, smiled with satisfaction, "The effect should be quite good."

Toru Amuro shook his head, wanting to tell Karasawa to keep a low profile so as not to expose himself. Thinking of the Phantom Thieves behind him, he knew that this possibility was unlikely.

Just like the existence of the Zero Group behind him, now that he has climbed to his current position, if he wants to confirm his identity, he needs more channels and means. With the Phantom Thieves as his logistics, Karasawa wants to cover up his actions against the organization. Just as easy.

Don't argue with him. After all, he is a gray undercover with no background. After all, he is a gray undercover with no background...

Toru Amuro, who recited it silently three times in his mind, calmed down a little and just said: "Be careful about your safety. So many things have happened at once. Gin has noticed the chaos here."

Even if they encounter various random events, even if there have been precedents in the past where the security level of a certain place has declined, and the organization has suffered along with it, the nature of it happening in Tokyo is still slightly different.

This place can be regarded as the organization's base camp in the Eastern Hemisphere. The old nest was stabbed, which is obviously not the same concept as the ordinary situation.

Hearing him mention gin, Tang Ze raised his eyebrows and smiled with a row of shining teeth: "It would be better if you notice it."

To say that the best way to paralyze the operation of an organization, compared to all the things he was going through, the simplest and most convenient way was to just beat Gin to the ground.

Do you believe that if the model worker like Gin is gone, half of the winery will be paralyzed?

"Has Gin offended you recently?" Sensing the faint fighting spirit of Karasawa, Toru Amuro was a little surprised, "You haven't had much contact recently, right?"

Kumail is considered to be the member of Codename in Tokyo, the one with stronger personal abilities, so it is not surprising that Gin catches him from time to time.

In particular, Gin has a lot of transactional content that requires contact with the outside world. Coupled with his strong suspicion, his demand for snipers is very high, and Kumail happens to be someone with sniper ability close to Akai Shuichi.

However, since Bourbon clearly began to form gangs and prepare to form his own small group, he did not want to get involved in the infighting within the organization's intelligence system, so he significantly reduced the frequency of calling Kumel, not only to avoid Bourbon borrowing money from others, but also The purpose of causing trouble was to show that he was really unfamiliar with Bourbon and had no inclination between the two parties.

Of course Toru Amuro agreed with any hostility Karasawa had against the members of the organization, but if he suddenly felt this way, maybe Gin had assigned him another difficult task without his knowledge, so it was necessary to investigate.

"His existence itself annoys me." Tang Ze clenched his fists and smiled, "What an annoying guy."

You said that the organization also gives you some kind of preferential treatment, while others spend all day drinking and spending money with funds, and you live in your car all day long and want to go to work 24/7. What are you trying to do?

Even if you don't consider the issue of stance, you are still a scab, you know, Gin!

Not to mention...

————

"Lift your feet."

Karasawa, who was sitting at the coffee bar, turned over a page and was about to continue asking questions when the cold voice of gin, which was neither salty nor light, came from behind.

Tang Ze looked at the slightly teasing smile on the face of Zhu Fu Jingguang, who was standing in front of him, gritted his teeth, and raised his foot with resignation.

A huge mop wiped his feet. Looking at his posture, he looked like he wanted to sweep Tang Ze on the stool into the trash can along with the stool.

The veins on Tangze's forehead popped out, he suppressed his smile and turned back expressionlessly.

Cognitive Gin, who was dragging a huge trash can in his hand, completely ignored Karasawa's expression and passed directly behind him.

After Tang Ze looked over unkindly, the other party returned an equally sharp glare from under the white brim of his hat.

This is Rei Fangtani's cinema, and it's the hall Karasawa visits most recently, except for Moritani Teiji's puzzle-solving modeling adventure.

The purpose, of course, is still the same purpose, to collect information about Fang Gu Ling and several others from the police academy at the same time.

The other people were fine. Although Fangtani Rei knew a few of them quite well, they had only been classmates for half a year. No matter how they had similar interests, they were not here to check their household registers after all.

Relying on his default favorability in the Fukutani Rei Hall, Karasawa followed a few cognitive dolls and completed the questionnaire, and then spent a few days watching all the relevant videos from Fukutani Rei's police academy period. I have basically exhausted what can be learned from here.

Zhu Fu Jingguang is quite special. As the young tame dye of Jianggu Ling, the amount of information he has here is obviously greater than that of others. Judging from the increase in the progress bar, he has not completely dug it out yet, so Tangze will be able to do whatever he wants. Come here to continue your investigation.

Therefore, he had to come into direct contact with the sentinel issued by the organization to Fangtani Zero Hall, which is the cognitive gin here.

Just as Karasawa had guessed before, Fukutani Zero Palace was also issued a cognitive gin after Bourbon officially entered the internal circle of the organization.

The image of Gin in the palace does not seem to be the embodiment of the palace master's recognition of him. It is more like first following the "guards with offensive power" and "defense mechanism with special authority", and then integrating the palace master. The concept of gin is synthesized.

Therefore, the image of gladiator gin in the Pisco Hall is understandable.

Because of this, Karasawa's understanding of Rei Fukutani was that he was in positions such as the old man in the control room, the gate guard, and the security guard in the parking lot. When he stepped into Rei Fukutani's house, he saw that he was cleanly dressed. The gin in the work suit is really not tight.

One thing to say, the image itself is actually pretty good-looking.

Gin's silver hair was styled into a high ponytail, and he wore a white peaked cap and a mask that covered most of his face. His whole body was wrapped in a white uniform. When he was dragging a huge garbage bin that was as tall as a person, it looked like a serial killer pretending to be transporting corpses.

Karasawa also understands the truth. Scavenger, it is in line with Rei Furuya's evaluation of gin, and as a cleaner, he will also have special access and can appear in all corners of Rei Furuya's cinema at will.

However, it should be difficult to deal with the matter of Gin sweeping the floor of a movie theater in Fangguling.

It can be seen that although the master of the palace subconsciously regards Karasawa as one of his own and knows that Gin will not be aggressive towards Karasawa, he is obviously very disgusted with this uninvited guest.

By the way, he was not too polite to the shadow Rei Fukiya himself. Karasawa had seen the golden-eyed Rei Fukaya dressed as a tourist being brushed over by the giant mop Gin dragged behind him.

Even the master of the palace himself was targeted, so he was treated equally, but seeing Gin at an acquaintance's house and the obstruction the other party brought to his recent investigation still made Karasawa feel very bad.

What's even more uncomfortable is that because this cognitive Gin is already part of the Fangtani Rei Hall, Karasawa can't show any hostility towards this guy if he doesn't want to be hostile to the entire hall, so even if he sees him, Karasawa feels There was a dull pain where the knife had stabbed him in the chest, but he still had to endure it.

This is very bad, very bad.

I hope that Hui Yuan Ai's drug cracking progress will be accelerated and Jiang Gu Ling's palace will be sterilized as soon as possible.

Tangze calmed down, turned around, and continued to look at the next question: "Do you prefer cats or dogs?"

"Asking in such detail, what are you going to do, guest..." The receptionist, who was entangled by Tang Ze, sighed. After meeting Tang Ze's unyielding eyes, he replied helplessly, "Okay, I It’s a dog party.”

"Well, okay, then the next question..."

————

"Jingle Bell--"

"Hello, hello, this is..."

"I'm looking for Kudo Shinichi." Through the voice changer, the voice of cold disgust could still be heard, directly interrupting the other party's unfinished words, "Please answer the phone."
