Conan and Gin are both my brothers, what's wrong with meeting them once?

A moment later, Gin "found" the passage behind the shrine.

The passage was deep and secluded, with no steps.

Fortunately, Gin had a powerful flashlight, so the three of them didn't have much trouble going down.

On the way down, Conan was constantly on the go: "Kurosawa-nii, your older brother is amazing at solving cases! Is he a detective?"

Good heavens, Conan is praising Gin! This is an extremely rare occurrence...

Kazuma Kudo smiled subtly: "Yes, he's also a detective, and he's even helped the police solve cases before."

Conan paused, suddenly recalling the roller coaster murder case on the day he first met Gin, when Gin had indeed helped point out some suspicious points.

He couldn't help but turn his head to look at Gin again, and couldn't help but sigh once more.

If this person isn't a criminal in the Black Organization, he must be an incredibly skilled detective!

He thought for a moment and continued, "Then, how should I address this detective? Is he your brother, Kurosawa? Does he also have the surname Kurosawa?"

Kazuma Kudo: "Yes, I am his younger brother."

Conan was about to ask something when a gunshot suddenly rang out from the other end of the passage. He froze, then instantly sped up and ran towards the other end.

Seeing this, Kudo Kazuma quickly followed, while Gin, holding a powerful flashlight, followed behind the two at a leisurely pace.

When Conan rushed out of the passage, he saw Uehara Yasuo leaning against the mountain wall, blood streaming from both temples, his eyes wide open, clearly dead beyond any doubt.

Meanwhile, Kinoshita Goro, standing to the side, held a pistol and stared at him with a gloomy expression.

"It's Conan, isn't it?" Kinoshita Goro sneered, pointing his gun at Conan. "Since you've seen me, then I have no choice but to..."

"What do you mean, 'have to'?" Kudo Kazuma caught up and immediately shielded Conan behind him. "It seems my older brother was right. That shot earlier, you shot yourself, pretending that Uehara Yasuo shot you."

As Kudo Kazuma finished speaking, Gin also walked out of the passage and shielded him behind him.

Conan looked at the two Black Organization members protecting him, raised his hand wearing the tranquilizer watch slightly, and then slowly lowered it.

Now is not the time.

"Yeah, he's right, so what?" Kinoshita Goro pointed his gun at Gin, who was at the front. "Anyway, the three of you are going to die here. Then we can just pin it all on Uehara Yasuo, and who will know it was me?"

Kudo Kazuma's face darkened.

This damn old man actually pointed a gun at his brother and elder brother?

He made no attempt to hide his full power in activating the [Sound Bewitching] skill, and said with a cold laugh, "If you commit suicide, no one will know it was you! Go ahead and try committing suicide!"

Kinoshita Goro's expression froze, and he instinctively turned the gun around, pointing it at his temple.

Seeing that his movements were too slow and hesitant, Kudo Kazuma simply used the [Sword Control Technique] to speed him up.

With a loud "bang!", Kinoshita Goro fell to the ground in front of the three men.

Conan was taken aback. What... was going on?

The murderer committed suicide so young and beautiful?

Gin turned around, glanced at Kudo Kazuma, and seeing the coldness in his eyes gradually dissipate, he coldly said, "Notify those people outside."

After saying that, he walked slowly and deliberately out along the passage.

Kudo Kazuma blinked, unable to help but wonder—could Gin have noticed something?

"Big brother! Wait for me!"

He shouted, and as he passed Conan, he instinctively scooped him up and strode after Gin.

Conan was stunned when he was pulled out of the water—this Kurosawa was far too skilled at pulling him out.

He had previously felt that Kurosawa's tone and manner of speaking were familiar.

Furthermore, he just shielded himself from Kinoshita Goro's gun, could it be...?

Conan suddenly remembered the two times his bratty younger brother played pranks, when he confidently called himself "Danpo".

Although the first time it was said that he would play the role of "Danpo".

But the second time, the truth in what he said definitely meant that Danpo Wine was him...

Logically, I shouldn't doubt my own brother, especially when he sounded so self-righteous, but...

He glanced at Gin walking ahead, then suddenly pulled out his phone and started texting his brat.

Where are you, and what are you doing?

After pressing the send button, he began to stare at Kurosawa, who was holding him.

But Kurosawa made no move, while his younger brother replied to the message instantly.

[The company! What else can we do? You don't think we'll have nothing to do after the press conference, do you? I'm incredibly busy, okay?]

[Why are you asking all of a sudden? Aren't you on Shikishima? Is Shikishima fun? How was your time with Ran? Was the ghost ship cool? Is the rumored gold nugget real or fake?]

By the way, if the gold bricks are real, could you help me break off a piece?

Why aren't you replying? What's wrong? Are you upset because the BRICS summit was fake? Sending messages is too slow. I'll install Bond for you when you get back.

Conan's face darkened as he watched his brat reply with a message every few seconds.

Is this what he meant by being busy?

What's he busy with?

Is this guy so bored he's practically moldy?

However, he was somewhat relieved.

I must have had a brain fart just now to think that Kurosawa was my younger brother.

However, when he thought of how confidently his brat had claimed to be Danpo, he couldn't help but sigh.

That brat's mouth is truly something else—thinking about it, Kurosawa's mouth isn't nearly as infuriating as that brat's at all!

After exiting the naval cave, Conan recounted their experience at the other end of the passage to the island's guards.

Although he couldn't understand Kinoshita Goro's suicide, he did witness the man commit suicide on the spot after Kurosawa's angry rebuke, so the matter could only be left unresolved.

The murder case was solved, but the gold nugget was still not found.

Mikami Takeo used a combination of persuasion and coercion to get Kogoro Mouri to stay on the island for another day.

Kudo Kazuma also used the excuse that the ship sent by the organization to collect the gold nuggets had already left, and that they shouldn't make a big show of bringing in another ship. Instead, they should wait to leave with Kogoro Mouri and the others.

Gin: "..."

If you're going to be lazy, just be lazy! Why make excuses?

A day later, under the threat of Kudo Kazuma and Ran's strength, Mikami Takeo still helped them contact a ship to return home.

They will go back because Kogoro Mouri and the others have other things to do.

"Big brother~ I haven't had enough fun yet, are we already going back?"

"Not enough fun? There's another mission at the Izu Hotel, let's do it together."

Kudo Kazuma thought to himself, "Going to Izu to play at the beach doesn't seem like a bad idea."

After disembarking, the two took a car sent by the organization to Izu.

On his way to Izu, Kudo Kazuma's clone at the company received a message from Conan.

[Izu Detective Tour: Free 3-day, 2-night stay at an Izu hotel, wanna go?]

Kazuma Kudo: "?"

No, Conan and Gin made a date?
