Conan: I'm Not a Model Worker in the Winery

Chapter 437 The Witch's Prophecy
He jumped from the Toudou Tower and sent Kaito to his death, which gave a big scare to Shikaohsiung who was still at Kuroba's house. He then threw Koizumi Akako's "employment information" to the Five Star Team's secret intelligence exchange station.

Gin drove his beloved Porsche to the hotel.

Occasionally, Gin would abandon the warm nest in the organization's base and go to a high-end hotel to enjoy a soft big bed.

The first thing Gin did when he arrived at the hotel was to take off all his clothes and take a cold shower.

In fact, after practicing Qi, his body structure has changed a bit, and there will be no dirt even if he doesn't take a bath often.

Normally, Gin takes a bath just to cool off.

After washing away the dryness in his body, he felt refreshed. He then used the "air" to freeze-dry his hair, thus avoiding the trouble of heating up his body due to blowing his hair.

Afterwards, Gin casually put on a bathrobe, sat on the bed, took out all the snacks, drinks and mineral water from his windbreaker pocket and placed them on the bedside table next to him. As if doing some ritual, he placed the water in a circle around it and then filled the middle with snacks.

Gin reverently took out the fortune-telling paper that Koizumi Akako had given him, took several deep breaths, and then slowly unfolded it.

The words on the note were written in a very sloppy handwriting, and were a light red and black color, with traces of magic on the edges... It was obvious that it was not written with normal ink.

After just one look, Gin was a little stunned:

The first shock was not because of the content, but because of this paragraph of text...

It is pure Chinese characters.

Gin blinked, surprised that Kaito, the witch classmate, could speak Chinese, and then he paid attention to the content.

The magical font reads:
[The pitch-black blade emerges from the eternal night... collapse, sin, and nothing but a mirage. ]

"...Black Blade?" Gin raised his eyebrows slightly.

This nickname refers to him at first glance, which is pretty cool.

Gin fully understood the meaning of the first half of the sentence, but the two words in the second half were like keywords, and the meaning was unclear.

But the last sentence...gives me a bad feeling.

but.

Gin looked at this prophecy, suddenly narrowed his eyes and laughed:

"The prediction is quite accurate..."

Letting him watch it alone was probably because they were afraid that he would become unstable after watching it - the red and black font that looked like blood was not a good omen in itself.

However, this witch lady probably did not expect that Gin already had a rough judgment about his future, and this time he just wanted to test the level of his colleague.

——Fortune-telling. Gin also has some knowledge of it, but he is not an expert at it. He cannot help others with fortune-telling, but he has no problem making blind judgments on his own.

Gin has long known that someone like him who commits murder will not have a good ending... It can't be considered superstition, but people who practice cultivation and martial arts have this belief to some extent, and this concept is deeply rooted in his mind.

It was the meaning of "leaving only a mirage in the mirror and a moon in the water" that made him curious. What exactly did this mean...

The direct meaning is that he is only left with illusions...

"Tsk... never mind. It won't be a good outcome anyway."

After laughing, Gin carefully put the note into his pocket for safekeeping.

This was the first time he had ever asked a witch to tell his fortune, so he had to keep it as a souvenir.

Then, Gin began to eat snacks while looking at the dark sky, "The weather today is weird..." Well... Speaking of which, the unscrupulous boss told Vermouth that the additional manpower will arrive soon.

No wonder it's so dark.

"It's worthy of being the night." Gin praised calmly, then drew the curtains and turned on the TV.

'Night' was the codename he gave to the Black Organization in the Five Star Group. It came from the fact that no matter where the organization first appeared, it would bring darkness and panic to people... But that was all in the past. Today's organizations no longer dare to break the law as blatantly as they did in the past.

One is not daring, the other is not being able to.

The main reason for the organization's turning inward was that, I don't know if it was an unscrupulous boss who made the order in a moment of confusion to bring in most of the good seedlings who were growing up to be tested.

It was only after he survived the experiment that he was promoted to become the organization's general manager in Japan.

Gin's predecessor, the one codenamed 'Fino', was missing in the end... He was probably killed in that drug trial.

"Speaking of medicine..."

Gin, who was watching TV and eating snacks, first had two little figures flashing through his mind. He lamented that his way of letting his daughter run wild was not like that of a good father. Then he remembered something that he had forgotten for a long time:

The death of the Miyano couple.

The accident happened shortly after the drug trial. Gin discovered that the drug, abbreviated as APTX, caused some changes in his body, so he wanted to take it for himself.

Although it was still in the experimental stage and the success rate was extremely low, the Five-Star Group was beginning to take shape at that time, so Gin planned to bring the drug information back for research within the organization.

——The theft went smoothly, but the problem was that right after Gin left, an explosion and fire broke out in the laboratory...

Gin wondered if there was some surveillance camera in the laboratory that he had missed that captured his figure.

It was impossible to see his appearance because he had his hair tied up in several buns and was wearing a hood and mask.

He was also certain that there was no one in the laboratory at the time, at least on the floor where he was. However, the bodies of the Miyano couple were later found in the laboratory after the fire.

Gin boldly guessed that the two people might have been killed when he sneaked into the research institute... The problem was, he didn't come out of the research institute immediately after entering. He spent at least half an hour looking for information, copying and making copies inside. Why did the fire start neither earlier nor later, but just after he stole the information?

It was too much of a coincidence. Gin didn't believe that this was God helping him. It was as if someone did it on purpose.

It is unclear whether the murder of the Miyano couple was caused by an unscrupulous boss who was angry and humiliated because of the failure of the drug experiment, or some other reason...

"What's the relationship between that guy and the boss? How can both sides coexist peacefully?" Gin held a piece of potato chips in his mouth, with a very distressed expression.

He was sure that Vermouth knew something, but when Vermouth mentioned family matters, he didn't want to continue.

Gin was thinking, if the organization is divided into two camps, then Vermouth will definitely be on one side, and he originally thought that he was a member of the unscrupulous boss party, but now it seems that it is not that simple...

If, if I could get in touch with that person...

Gin's thoughts began to run wild.

An urgent typhoon warning was broadcast on TV, and the red sign attracted Gin's attention.

"Hmm... Come to think of it, the dates these days are all consecutive. How strange." Gin sighed and stretched out his evil claws towards a bottle of Coke.

Conan seems to be in Kanagawa today. I hope everyone over there is okay.
