Conan: I am really a good person

Chapter 352 Do you know what happened to him?

Compared to the game, the real world is calm and peaceful to the point of being serene.

On an ordinary day, Conan went out for fun as usual, encountered one, two, three, four or five murders as usual, solved them all as usual, and returned home as usual under the cover of night.

He went to Dr. Agasa's house.

The person arrived at 9:15, and the call was connected at 9:15 and 3 seconds. As soon as the call was connected, Conan unconsciously lowered his voice, "Mr. Future!"

"Are you still in the dessert shop?"

A calm voice from the future came over the phone, "I'm still in the store. The dessert shop is closed. I'm the only one in the lobby now. You can go ahead and talk about your business."

After he finished speaking, he paused, his tone somewhat subtle, "Did you encounter any more murders when you returned?"

'Again' is the essence.

Today is the weekend. Not only do elementary school students not have to go to school, they can go outside and have fun solving cases. High school students also don't have to go to school, so they can go find the person they love.

Conan was the former. He had fun and solved cases today, and was quite satisfied. However, there was one pity: the cases came one after another. He had just solved a case and changed the place to play. Before he could sit down to catch his breath, have a drink or taste some dessert, he encountered the next case. In his busy schedule, he found many aerial shots to call Ichiu Future to "report the latest progress of the mission", but those aerial shots were only enough for him to say hello, not enough for him to elaborate.

He didn't elaborate. It didn't matter. Ichijo Future had already realized that something was wrong from the sound of his cell phone ringing every once in a while.

In Suzuki Sonoko's words, "Hey, Mr. Future, you set a dozen alarms? Wait, is it Conan's call? ... You actually let that little, ahem, you actually let that cute child be your alarm clock? Wow, how interesting!"

This is not interesting at all.

What kind of person would encounter murder cases so frequently that a single phone call would turn into more than a dozen calls?
Ichijo Miku didn't understand, but he was greatly shocked.

Thinking about the report, Conan didn't notice the tone of the future, which sounded calm and steady at first, but seemed extremely subtle when he savored it, and hurriedly replied: "We didn't encounter any more cases when we came back."

He lowered his voice again, "Um, Mr. Future, do you know him..."

"Mizunashi Reina?"

Huh?
This name, this tone?
Ichijo Mirai was startled for a moment, then replied, "I don't know him."

"I accidentally tracked her down when I was tracking down Rum," Conan answered, and then hesitated again, "And I met, uh, Mr. Future, you,"

He asked carefully: "Do you know a man who is about twenty years old, wearing a knitted hat, has green eyes, eyelids like thick tear marks, and may have long hair or short hair...?"

This description...

It would be better to just say Akai Shuichi's name.

Ichijo Mirai was silent for a moment, and sensed something from Conan's hesitant and cautious tone: Wait, damn it, 'My girlfriend likes you very much, so I like you too, can you develop a deeper relationship with my girlfriend and me'? Even Conan knows about this, right? !

God damn blond bastard!
What was he doing again! What kind of weird XP was released in broad daylight!

But when he said it, Ichijo Future's heart was calm, and his tone was extremely peaceful, as if he was dead, "I know him."

He was not very willing to admit it and immediately focused on other important points. "Maybe it's long hair, maybe it's short hair?"

This time, Conan had expected it, and he easily detected the tone of the future, which was as calm as death, and explained carefully: "Recently, when I was tracking down 'Rum', I met several people who were suspected to be members of the organization."

"Besides the Mizunashi Reina I just mentioned, one is Mr. Akai, and the other is also Mr. Akai..."

There are two trees in front of the door, one is a jujube tree and the other is also a jujube tree.

There were no dirty words like "Little detective, you don't want others to know your identity, do you?", "Think carefully before you decide whether to resist, little detective, I am a member of the organization, I can help your future husband find rum", "Don't worry, future husband won't know", etc., but Ichijo Future was calm and just listened quietly.

"There was a Mr. Akai who had long hair, a scar on his face, a bad temper, looked very cold, and seemed to have some grievances against me," Conan recalled, "I met him at the amusement park this morning. When I called you, he seemed to be very unhappy and sneered..."

A sneer that made Haibara Ai, who was drinking water, tremble and drop the cup on the spot. She subconsciously looked around in fear for the source of the murderous intent.

"One of them was Mr. Akai, who had short hair," he recalled. "I ran into him at the ski resort in the afternoon. He should have been staying at the hotel at the ski resort, and he happened to encounter the murder case with us."

"After solving the murder case, when I called you to tell you about Reina Mizunashi, he, he smiled at me..."

It is a relatively gentle smile, like the smile an elder gives to a younger person.

Compared with the smile of the long-haired man in the morning, the smile of the short-haired man in the afternoon was like a spring breeze.

But Haibara Ai was frightened so much that her face turned pale. She huddled in the corner of the murder scene in shock and fear, almost shrinking herself into a non-existent mushroom. After a long while, when the people left, she told Dr. Agasa in a daze that there were members of the organization nearby.

In response, Conan: "."

These two people look almost identical, except for their different personalities and hair lengths, but they have one thing in common: they both paid special attention to Conan from the beginning.

Just like during exams, the invigilator will pay special attention to students he knows.

When they saw Conan running around the murder scene, making trouble like a child and pretending to be "Oh~ Brother~ Brother~ This is so weird~" to various people, they remained calm and did not show any signs of high blood pressure as if they had encountered a naughty child. Instead, it seemed as if they saw through Conan's disguise and knew that his actions were just a means to solve the case.

Conan's guess was confirmed by the following statement: "I asked the long-haired 'Mr. Akai' if he was a member of the organization, and he said,

He hesitated again and again, and then whispered again, "He sneered and said, 'Didn't that guy tell you about me? I thought I was the only partner he had chosen to be willing to give everything to. What were the few years we spent together in New York?'"

"He also said, 'Tell that guy my features, especially the long hair I grew for him, and he will know who I am right away.'"

Being able to say such words, Conan can judge without hesitation without asking about the future: he is a friend, not an enemy.

Even if the other party is a member of the organization and is logically an enemy, they will never really take action.

Being able to say such somewhat resentful words, it is obvious that the other person has a close relationship with Ichijou Future, and they can be friends or partners that go beyond 'rational terms'.

Conan whispered again and again: "When I met the short-haired gentleman in the afternoon, I asked him if he was a member of the organization. He said he was..."

"But what he said was 'if he considers himself a member of the group, then I probably am one too',"

It sounds like everyone has a lot of complaints against Yitiao Future. How much debt does Yitiao Future owe?

"I asked him about your relationship with him again." He felt that the good-tempered future gentleman might hold a grudge, so he didn't dare to say it in his heart. He continued while recalling, "He said, uh,"

"'In his opinion, they are probably not colleagues. The colleague he originally expected is someone else, let alone partners. He and the partner he could trust with his back have long been separated. Maybe they are not related at all.'"

"……cough."

It was Conan who was talking all the time, and Ichijo Mirai was silent the whole time.

After Conan finished speaking, he waited and waited, and couldn't help but squeak to remind the future on the other end of the phone, "Mr. Future?"

A future: "..."

"I know you're anxious, but don't be anxious," he said slowly, "I'm also deeply shocked."

Two Akai Shuichi.

This should be a difficult problem that requires careful distinction between what is genuine and what is fake.

But these two are really quite distinct, and it is obvious which one is real and which one is fake: the long-haired man in the morning is "Akai Shuichi", and the short-haired man in the afternoon is Akai Shuichi.

In fact, it was still a little difficult to identify Shuichi Akai in the afternoon. Conan actually said that he looked very good-tempered and would show a gentle smile like an elder looking at a younger person.

This was quite inconsistent with Shuichi Akai's future impression. He seriously suspected that the FBI man and a cup of coffee were put into a box and could freeze the hot coffee into cold coffee in just three minutes.

But who could blame the long-haired gentleman in the morning? He was obviously a blond gentleman who was having a lot of fun and liked to slander other people's reputations.

Listen, listen to what he said, 'the only partner who can give everything to you', 'depending on each other in New York'.

If Shuichi Akai heard this, he would take him to court on the spot!

It is both a crime of slander and a disgusting crime.

Ichijo Mirai shook his head at the blond's nonsense, explained the two real and fake ones, and stated, "First of all, they are not members of the organization."

After thinking for a moment, he added the apt description, "It is a blessing for the organization."

“You can trust them with confidence.”

Although one is the police and the other is the FBI, it sounds like if you trust them, you will definitely get into trouble...

But ignoring the facts, compared with other police officers, these two police officers are still quite trustworthy.

"Secondly, they may know clues about Rum. If you have any questions during the investigation or other questions, you can ask them."

"Then," his tone became serious, "as you can see, they all have somewhat mischievous personalities, so you'd better not believe some of the things they say, such as those related to me."

This is the key point, right?
Conan silently swallowed the words "Mr. Future, what did you do?" and said, "Okay."

"So I started working with Mr. Akai?" he said, "He seems to know the identity of Reina Mizunoshi. Reina Mizunoshi may be a breakthrough. I want to investigate her in depth."

As long as it wasn't 'Mr. Future! I found Rum! Coordinates xxx, requesting precision strike!', I didn't care much about it. "OK, I will help you investigate later."

This is what Conan was waiting for, and he immediately responded obediently, "Okay!"

He hung up the phone and contentedly considered his recent great leap forward, becoming more and more satisfied.

As soon as he jumped off the bench, he realized something was wrong: someone was eavesdropping at the door.

If it was Dr. Agasa, there would be no need to eavesdrop, it was someone else.

Conan immediately became alert.

He walked to the door quietly, pushed it open and looked out, and found the eavesdropper in the corner: Huibara Ai.

Haibara Ai's face was very pale, so pale that it looked like she was sweating profusely. She huddled in the corner with her knees together, almost blending in with the wall. When she heard footsteps, she shuddered instinctively and looked up in horror. When she saw it was Conan, her pupils, which had shrunk suddenly, trembled and returned to their original size.

She managed to ask, "Who were you talking to on the phone just now?!"

Conan was not very willing to tell Huibara Ai about something in the future, so he said vaguely: "Didn't you run into a strange guy during the day? I wasn't on the phone, I was eavesdropping and talking to myself."

Haibara Ai's face was still pale. She almost gritted her teeth and ignored Conan's explanation. "You are talking to a member of the organization on the phone, right?!"

Halfway through her speech, she instinctively trembled, her teeth clenched tightly, and she trembled with fear, "Do you know..."

"Do you know who that guy is?!"

"he……"

When she was about to blurt out the words, she stopped abruptly as if her heart was palpitating and closed her mouth tightly.

what?
Conan couldn't understand her reaction and was a little confused. "I was talking on the phone very quietly. You could only hear a little bit of the sound, right?"

Can this identify a future?
He keenly grasped the key point, "Is he special in the organization?"

"Is he special in the organization?" Huihara Ai repeated, sneering, "So you don't know anything, and you dare to provoke him!"

"he……"

It was like she was afraid to say something, but she had to say it because of Conan's questioning. Even if she didn't say it, Conan could directly tell her the future. She could only say: "I advise you not to provoke him."

He gave an example, "The last person who provoked him was Rum."

"Do you know what happened to him?"
