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

After controlling his clone to "politely decline" Conan's invitation, Kudo Kazuma devoted himself entirely to his hotel bed.

He hadn't originally planned for his clone to come along, but after hearing Conan say there were only three free spots, he immediately refused.

Please, who would pay for someone else's free hotel stay just to have a clone join in the fun?

Besides, it would be troublesome whether Gin mistook the Yang clone for Shinichi Kudo or Gin confirmed that the Yang clone was also him.

If you want to pull off a clone stunt, you'll have to wait until Gin isn't around...

"Dark Baron...computer virus?"

After listening to Gin's explanation of the mission, Kudo Kazuma tilted his head.

When he was planning to establish Kurosawa Software Company, he tried his best to recall relevant information.

Dark Baron + Seaside Hotel + Internet-related + Agency Trio...

I do recall having such a passage.

The three from the agency seemed to be participating in some kind of event on behalf of Professor Agasa. They thought it was just a simple puzzle-solving activity, but they didn't expect that everyone in this group had their own agenda, and one of them even committed murder on the spot.

—Oh, this doesn't need to be specifically mentioned. There are many cases of killing on the spot, but it's rare to kill someone on the spot.

In short, all these people are after that non-existent computer virus—yes, computer viruses don't exist.

So this trip is just for fun?

You can also gain a soul.

It's such a wonderful thing!

Kudo Kazuma curiously rolled over in bed and turned to look at Gin in the next bed: "Big brother, how did you, or rather the organization, find out about this?"

They arrived a day early; the Izu Detective Club isn't supposed to arrive until tomorrow, and the organization already received the news?

Gin, lying on the bed with his eyes closed, didn't even open them: "Egawa Tokio, a hacker who frequently steals trade secrets from various companies. He has dealings with the organization."

"Oh! It's him!"

Kazuma Kudo had some recollection of this hacker.

Back when he was still learning computer skills in an organization, he once fought alongside his teacher against a hacker who used computer networks to infiltrate the organization's publicly known companies.

That hacker was Tokio Egawa.

Since then, Ehara Tokio has occasionally made deals with the organization, making him a semi-official member of the organization.

When Kazuma Kudo founded Kurosawa Software, he considered whether to recruit him to work for the company, and even took a long look at him during a transaction.

The man was too sleazy, and I heard he was also a lecher, so I gave up on him.

Kudo Kazuma rolled back into bed: "Big brother, I'm going to sleep now, we're going out to play tomorrow~"

Yang's clone has already learned the whole story from Conan, so does that mean Ehara Tokio will also be in the Izu Detective Club tomorrow?

So, should we get our hands on all the company secrets he hacked?

Even though the Dark Baron virus is fake, isn't obtaining these company secrets for Gin still an achievement on his part?

Kudo Kazuma pondered these things, then yawned and drifted off to sleep.

Gin, who was lying in bed with his eyes closed, turned his head and glanced at Kudo Kazuma, who was sleeping without any restraint, and let out a long sigh of exhaustion.

Turn off the lights and go to sleep.

The next day, Kudo Kazuma unusually got up at around 8 a.m. After breakfast, he took Gin to the beach.

Gin was still wearing the same white shirt and khaki trench coat, lying on a beach chair sunbathing, not feeling hot at all.

Kudo Kazuma, on the other hand, changed into beach shorts and had a great time at the beach.

With a "splash," a large spray of water came, and even though Gin dodged quickly, he couldn't avoid the splashing attack of the seawater.

"Big brother, aren't you hot?" Kudo Kazuma stood a short distance away with his hands on his hips, complaining helplessly, "It's not like I didn't prepare short-sleeved clothes for you, yet you're wearing such thick clothes. I feel hot for you!"

Gin, who had stood up, frowned and looked at Kazuma Kudo with murderous intent.

The trench coat I was wearing was mostly soaked by the seawater; if I didn't take it off soon, my shirt underneath would get wet too.

This unexpected situation made him want to beat up the person who started it all.

Kudo Kazuma, however, was completely oblivious. Seeing that Gin remained unmoved, he suddenly lifted his foot, which was submerged in seawater, and splashed a large amount of glistening seawater at Gin.

Gin gave a cold snort, quickly took off his trench coat and flung it aside, throwing away all the seawater and a little sand that was hitting him.

As for who gets splashed with the seawater and sand, what does that have to do with him?

As the seawater and fine sand flew toward their target, there were shouts and figures quickly dodging – none of the people chatting together managed to dodge, and they were all splashed with seawater.

The heavier, finer sand passed over these people and landed with a "pia" on a small figure lying on a deck chair.

Wow! Wow!

Suddenly caught off guard, Conan jumped up with a howl.

Then he turned his head to look at her with annoyance.

Please, he was just thinking about whether Kurosawa's brother was Gin. Who was it that took advantage of his distraction to ambush him?

"Forehead……"

Through the dispersed crowd, Conan immediately spotted Kurosawa running desperately towards the sea, and Gin crouching down, squeezing a fist-sized ball of sand from the beach.

amount……

It should be Qin Bar?

Conan was a little doubtful of his eyes.

Would Gin... throw a ball of sand at someone like in a snowball fight?

No, he's going to come a second time?

Is this a joke?

This person is definitely not from the Qin Bar?

Conan took off his glasses and rubbed his eyes hard—was there something wrong with his eyes, or was there something wrong with his thinking?

"Big brother, big brother!" Kudo Kazuma dodged the second sand ball and quickly gave a French military salute. "I didn't mean anything by it, I just wanted you to wear less and cool off!"

"Take a good look at yourself. Who else comes to the beach in this sweltering heat and is wrapped up like a dumpling..." As the third sand ball flew towards him, Kudo Kazuma simply dove into the seawater.

Farewell!

With a "splash," Xiao Lan, who was diving, emerged from the water.

She walked over to Conan and asked curiously, "Why the long face? Did something happen?"

"Huh? No...nothing..." Conan scratched his head, subconsciously lowering his voice, "I saw Kurosawa and his older brother, the one I told you about last time, the one who looked like Gin..."

"Conan~" Ran crouched down, smiling as she patted Conan's head. "Be polite, call him Kurosawa-nii-chan~"

Conan sighed helplessly.

There are only the two of them here now, so why does Lan insist on making him pretend to be an elementary school student?

At this moment, Ran also saw Gin standing on the beach, looking cold and aloof.

She crouched down next to Conan and whispered, "But I don't seem to sense any danger from him. I didn't feel anything bad when we were on Shikishima either... Shinichi, are you sure he's the Gin you're talking about?"

Conan thought about Gin on the day he shrunk, and then about the person he had met in the past few days...

Could it be that he really admitted his mistake?
