When Chu Ming returned from Osaka after completing his investigation, Hondou Eisuke had already transferred out of Teitan. Although Conan felt regretful for not being able to find out about him in time, he did not suspect that it was related to Chu Ming at all.

Chu Ming was holding a photo in his hand with a smile on his lips, but the smile was not as bright as his eyes. He went to Osaka to check around. Ethan Hondou was too cautious and didn't find any flaws in him after checking around, but he did not gain nothing.

He asked intelligence personnel in Osaka to investigate whether anyone had any impression of Hondou Eisuke through his photo, and finally found a small restaurant.

The owner of this restaurant said that when he was a child, Hondou Eisuke often came to eat here with his father. He also has a photo of Hondou Eisuke accidentally taking a selfie on his mobile phone. The photo includes not only Hondou Eisuke, but also Ethan Hondou.

Holding this almost decisive evidence, Chu Ming went directly to the base to find Gin.

He arrived at a very timely moment, as all members of the action team, except Bourbon, had gathered at the base.

Seeing Chu Ming push the door open, Vermouth raised her eyebrows and looked at Gin with some confusion: "Did you call Granburch over as well?"

Gin was also a little confused for a rare moment. It was obvious that he was also surprised by Granburch's sudden arrival.

"How did you come?"

Chu Ming looked at them as if they were going on a mission and felt as if he was being excluded: "Is this a mission? Or a team building? Why didn't anyone notify me? Are you guys collectively bullying me?"

Lafitte rolled his eyes in an ungraceful manner: "Not asking you to go on a mission is bullying? Come on, bully me now. I have dark circles under my eyes recently. You help me with the mission and I will help you rest."

Chu Ming said confidently: "That's different. I can choose not to go on a mission, but I can't be unaware of the mission! Gin, explain why you didn't call me. Do you still have me as your successor in your eyes? Do you want to rebel?"

Gin looked indifferent, and Granburch was rebellious. When he was asked to do a task, he looked reluctant and made excuses, wishing to throw the task to others; if he was not asked, he would be unwilling to do it and felt that he was being sidelined.

In short, I'm just free.

So for those who have nothing better to do than to stir up trouble, one sentence is enough.

"I have a dozen quests here if you're bored." After thinking for a moment, Gin added meaningfully, "Specially for you."

Chu Ming couldn't stand to hear the word "specially". A long time ago, Gin seemed to have used similar rhetoric on him. That time, his footsteps almost spanned the entire Japan, from east to west and from south to north. If he hadn't had a great enemy to help him later, he probably would not have been able to stay idle.

"Forget it, don't be so specific. I'm here for a serious matter." Chu Ming was still in shock and declined Gin's invitation for the mission. "It just so happens that Gil is here, so I don't have to ask someone to look for you."

Gin frowned. Is Granburch here to see Kiel?

The last time Granburch thought that Kiel was an undercover agent, he said that he would use the photos of Ethan left by the organization to conduct a big data search on the Internet. Is this a clue?

Kiel was standing at the back. When she heard Granburch call her name, her heart skipped a beat. She forced herself to calm down and said calmly, "Looking for me? What's the matter?"

Chu Ming pulled out the chair next to him and sat down, resting his elbows on the back of the chair, smiling: "Kil, do you have any brothers or sisters?"

When Kil suddenly heard Granburch mention this, her heart trembled, and she subconsciously thought of her younger brother. However, when she was assigned to the organization, she was an orphan and had no brothers or sisters at home, so she could not admit anything to Chu Ming's questions.

"Of course not." Keel smiled casually, "Are you looking for me just to chat about family matters? Then I might--"

"You think too much. It's just that Potter is short of experimental subjects recently. I can't ignore him when he asked me for help, so I asked the peripheral members to help him find a few." Chu Ming pushed a photo over. "When I saw this person, I thought they had captured your family and was going to help stop them. Since you don't have any brothers or sisters, forget it. By the way, you don't know this person, right?"

Kiel's expression remained unchanged, but his heart was like a raging storm.

In this photo, Hondou Eisuke is lying on the ground, his eyes closed and his face pale, like a lifeless body.

Even though she hadn't seen her younger brother for a long time, she recognized him the moment she saw the photo. This was Yingyou!

But how did he fall into the hands of the organization!

"I don't know him." Kil looked normal, at least on the surface, but there was a slight bitterness in his tone.

Everyone present was a smart man. There was complete silence at this moment, and everyone was watching silently. They all knew that since Granburch came to them at this time, it couldn't be just because of a photo. He must have another plan.

In fact, Chu Ming was not surprised by Kil's denial. After all, they were all undercover agents, and it was unlikely that they would be exposed by just one photo.

Seeing that Gil didn't admit it, Chu Ming changed the subject and talked about something else: "Gil, the last time Gin mentioned you to me, he told me that when you were still an outsider, an undercover wanted to harm you and even injected you with truth serum?"

Kiel didn't know what Granburch was trying to do, but she was alert and answered carefully, "Yes, but it turned out to be a blessing in disguise for me because I was valued by the boss and got a code name."

"Then it seems that you should be grateful to that undercover agent. Without him, it would take you who knows how long it would take to catch the boss's eye and get a code name." Chu Ming teased meaningfully.

"Grateful? Why should I be grateful to him?" Keel had a look of disgust on his face, as if he was very disdainful of the undercover agent he mentioned. "I wish I could kill him again to vent my hatred."

Regardless of whether he believed it or not, Granburch seemed quite supportive: "Oh? Really? It seems that Kiel still has a grudge against him."

Before Keel could speak, Chu Ming took over the conversation: "It seems that I can help you solve your problems today."

"This experimental subject is called Hondou Eisuke."

Kiel clenched his hands tightly in his pockets, his nails almost digging into his flesh. Before he could say anything, he heard Vodka exclaim, "Bon Tang? Brother, didn't you say that the undercover agent was called by his accomplice beside him? Wasn't that Ben Tang?"

Chu Ming applauded him and pushed the photo he found forward: "This Hondou Eisuke is the son of the undercover agent. What do you think, Gil? I'll give you a chance for revenge. After all—"

Chu Ming paused for a moment and stretched out his tone: "The son should pay for the father's debt..."
