Conan: Science Cartoonist Kudo Yuji

"Who knows what we've been through!"

Kneeling at the end of the track and seeing the small wooden door parked in front of them, the Kudo brothers gasped for air. When they looked up, they found that Toru Amuro and Bermod looked as usual.

"You are not on stimulants, are you? We sprinted for a full 10 minutes! Who is the god who designed this headquarters!"

After helping the other person stand up, Yuji took out the pistol directly from his pocket and showed an evil expression: "I'm going to knock down the first person I see!"

Anyway, it was an electric shock bomb. It would hurt the body at most and would not cause any harm. Shinichi's nose also started to burn, acquiescing to his brother's words.

"Do you want to blow up this wooden door together?"

Taking out a box from his handbag, Bourbon tossed it in the pistol and turned to wait for Chrissy's instructions.

"This handle has no mechanism."

The inspection found that the round grip did not pop out with poisonous spikes. Chris tested it again with an electrical tester, and finally came to a surprising conclusion.

"It's just an ordinary door, nothing wrong with it."

"Impossible!" Yuji rushed over excitedly: "How could this happen? These bastard agents didn't do anything here."

Grabbing the black box, Yuji quickly tore off the board on the back, and then aligned the adhesive surface at once.

"If I don't blow up this broken door today, my surname will not be Kudo!"

Yuji, who had been tormented all morning, couldn't control himself to stay rational at this moment. His eyes were staring straight at the handle.

"Really? It doesn't matter. We brought enough explosives anyway." Bermod and Toru Amuro took a few steps back and found a bunker to block themselves.

"By the way, that door seems to be over 100 years old. If I'm not mistaken, it's still made of golden nanmu."

All three of them noticed that Yuji's body shook twice. Even from behind, it could be seen that he had obviously changed from madness to calmness. He placed the box on the ground, put his hand on the door, and knocked lightly.

"Golden...golden nanmu, this two-person-high door is made of golden nanmu?!"

Yuji pressed his face against the door: "How did Miss Chris know this was from 100 years ago?"

"Although the handle is British style, the door has a distinctly Asian feel. If nothing else, this piece of golden nanmu should have been brought from China more than 100 years ago."

Belmod understood that Yuji didn't want to blow up the door, so he walked out from behind the bunker and put his arm around the boy's shoulders: "This kind of wood could not be bought with money at that time, so..."

"They were snatched away, 100 years ago..."

Yuji put both hands on the door: "Miss Chris, I want this door."

"Hey! Yuuji!"

Shinichi frowned and interrupted Belmod: "Isn't this bad?"

"What does it matter? They snatched it anyway." Yuer akimbo said: "Now I am more powerful."

"Hey, hey, hey, I'll have the bourbon dismantled and taken back to Japan for you later."

[What’s my opinion?This thing is pretty heavy. 】

Seeing the happy expression on Yuji's face, Toru Amuro covered her face and sighed at Shinichi's sympathy: "Here we go again..."

[If you coax your son, you can’t do it by yourself...]

Opening the wooden door carefully, Yuji was pulled down by Belmod. The mother and son entered first, but found that there was no one inside.

"I just wanted to ask why there are so few people in the building over there. Generally speaking, even if you go out to work, there will be people left at the headquarters base to guard the house."

Nodding, Yuji raised his watch and made a more logical guess: "They must be doing team building together."

"What an outrageous statement!" Shinichi shook his brother and poked his head with his hand: "You won't be carried away by that door, will you?! Wake up from the world of money."

"Sorry, Shinichi!" Yuji widened his eyes seriously: "The world of money is so beautiful."

[Does this mean this guy doesn’t want to wake up? 】

"The room over here is a little weird!"

Pulling out his head from the right passage, Bourbon stretched out his hand to wave the three of them over: "There is an independent cabinet in this room. It should be the information archives room."

"Okay, let's go find the list." Belmod nodded at Bourbon: "Go and open the door."

Looking at the smashed glass cover on the desktop and the completely unlocked computer, the three of them looked at each other.

"Isn't this different from the secret agent mission I thought?" Shinichi sat in front of the computer, looked at the opened file, and read it from top to bottom.

"This document says that an agent from MI[-] returned to the UK in the past few days and ignored the arrangements and went to meet her husband whom she had not seen for many years. As a result, an agent from the field saw her on the way back and saw her seemingly being raped by a woman. Fed with poison, fell into the Thames."

"Death document."

Yuji knew who it was as soon as he heard it. He glanced at Chris, only to find that her eyes were also pointed at him.

"Hurry up and copy that list, and we can leave." Belmode winked at Yuji and quietly walked out of the room with the bag full of bombs.

"Found it, the cannon fodder's list!"

After searching for the target file, Shinichi called his brother to his side, connected the storage device left by Belmod on the desktop to the computer with a data cable, and began to transfer it.

"Speaking of which, who are the people inside?" Yuji shook Shinichi's shoulders and urged him to open it and take a look.

"Knowing the people on the list, we can be prepared later, right?"

If people on this list are still seen alive after a period of time, it is probably because they were instigated by the organization and used for counterattack. "

After hearing his brother's words, Shinichi took a deep breath, moved the mouse to the undercover list, double-clicked to open it, and started reading from top to bottom.

"According to age, the person at the top is estimated to be between 80 and [-] years old, which is just right for the Dusk Annex."

Shinichi remembered that the Karasuma Consortium, whose symbol was a crow, only really entered the world stage after World War II, and lowered his eyes to the table.

[Before that, I had been hiding in the dark, waiting for the opportunity...]

"The names of many people in the middle are marked in red. They must have sacrificed their lives."

Yuji watched as Shinichi's hand on the mouse wheel stopped, and then he opened an information sheet called "Sara Marie".

"This is the person in the file that was just opened. He just died a few days ago."

Shinichi asked in a low voice: "Is he killed by Belmode?"

"This...should not be considered a kill..."

After all, she is not dead, she just turned into a child. Can she be explained as missing like Kudo Shinichi?
"Look, are there any big fish here, someone with a relatively high status in the organization?"

Shinichi stood up from the chair, leaned to the side and watched his brother start reading the list, leaning his head in front of the screen.

"Luoye on the mountain, Ganluola, Sabic de la Mondragon, Zhang Wei."

Shinichi read out the names on the list in surprise: "There are actually people from all countries!"

"Oda Maizi, Aze Dandanti, Kudo...Yuji?!"
