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

"How to do it……"

Conan sat on Kazuma Kudo's arm, his little face all scrunched up.

They searched the entire venue, with Conan even crawling under the tables multiple times, but they couldn't find any evidence to prove that Shigehiko Tobuchi was the murderer.

The people present were all prominent figures. If it couldn't be determined whether Shigehiko Tomoguchi's murder was intentional, the police couldn't conduct a body search, which would make it even harder to find evidence...

“Edogawa, my friend,” Inspector Megure leaned closer and asked in a low voice, “how did you know someone was going to kill Councilor Tonguchi? Without a clear and reliable source of information, we can’t even keep everyone detained and prevent them from leaving.”

"And as you heard, some people even suspect that the person who called the police was the killer. Tell me, what are we, the police, supposed to do? Are we really going to assume that you were the one who killed him?"

Kazuma Kudo twitched the corner of his mouth: "Of course not..."

He was just an accomplice, how can you say he killed him?

At memorial services, it's normal for some people to leave occasionally, but with the death of Shigehiko Tomoguchi, even more people wanted to leave. Inspector Megure had no choice but to ask him for his source.

Kudo Kazuma glared at Conan with annoyance. Conan blinked his big, innocent eyes, his face seemingly saying: "It's all up to you."

Fine.

Kudo Kazuma immediately started making things up: "I have a yakuza boss who overheard from someone that someone was going to kill that Councilor Tonguchi at today's memorial service, so he told me. He doesn't even know that person, let alone me."

This ridiculous explanation left Conan speechless and Inspector Megure feeling helpless.

In any case, without accurate and reliable sources of information, the police could not detain the guests for long and could only conduct a brief inquiry into some people near the chandelier before giving up.

Although Conan and Kazuma Kudo also heard a faint sound, they had no evidence to prove that it was a silenced gunshot. Furthermore, no other witnesses heard the sound, so even a basic method like testing for gunpowder residue couldn't be used.

After all, the guests were all important figures with status and influence, and there were a bunch of reporters waiting outside. They wouldn't cooperate obediently for the sake of their reputation by spreading rumors.

Ultimately, the case was dropped after the memorial service ended.

When Kazuma Kudo carried Conan away, he secretly sent a message to Pisco using his clone, instructing him to quickly remove the fluorescent agent from the chandelier chain links so that no clues would be left behind.

On the way back, Conan said in a deep voice, "I can't believe that organization could be so meticulous in their work... Damn it! I should have planted more listening devices and tracking devices in Gin's car!"

Kudo Kazuma was speechless: "Seriously, how many listening devices and tracking devices do you think you can carry around, you're just an elementary school student? Where are you going to put them all?"

He was speechless. So the chosen one comes with his own storage space?

Conan knew he'd just said it in anger, so he cleared his throat and said, "I was just saying... But that person living in our house, it must be quite inconvenient for us to see him now, right? After all, he doesn't know who I am..."

Kazuma Kudo: "That's not all. What do you want to do with him? Talk about cooperation? Why would he cooperate with you? Even if you are Yusaku Kudo's son, he might not cooperate with you, right?"

Conan pondered for a moment and then said, "Since he knows about that organization and that drug, he should have some understanding of the organization. If he knows that I'm also fighting against the organization, then we should be able to discuss cooperation, right?"

"As for the issue of identity... should I go to Haibara again and ask for another antidote?"

Kazuma Kudo tilted his head: "Forget about the antidote. Maybe when you show up at Professor Agasa's house, he'll know who you are."

Conan paused slightly: "You mean, he might have planted a bug or surveillance device at Dr. Agasa's place?"

"I didn't say that, you guessed it yourself." Kudo Kazuma shrugged. "Anyway, the Doctor is back from America. Ai and I have arranged to have dinner there tomorrow night. You're going too, right?"

Conan nodded: "We'll talk about it later."

The car quickly arrived at the building where the Mori Detective Agency was located.

After putting Conan down, Kazuma Kudo drove back to 4-chome.

However, instead of going home, he called Asagi Narumi and asked him to turn on the light in his room and then turn it off later.

As for him, he drove directly to the Dahei Building.

In the bar of the Daikoku Building, Kazuma Kudo placed the fragments of the chain links laced with fluorescent dye, the purple handkerchief with burn marks, the pistol he pulled from Pisco's pocket, and the negatives he had obtained from the reporter on the table in front of Pisco.

"Look for yourself. There are shards and burn marks on the handkerchief, enough to determine the method you used. If we test each person for gunpowder residue or search each person, do you think you can escape?"

"Even if the police were mindful that everyone present was a big shot and wouldn't conduct a body search, there were paparazzi at the event who happened to capture you firing the gun... you know what I mean?"

Looking at the solid evidence laid out before him, and hearing Kudo Kazuma's words, Pisco's old face turned incredibly ugly.

Gin, who was looking through documents not far away, suddenly stood up and, while loading his gun, walked towards Pisco.

"Useless!" Beretta's gun was pressed directly against Pisco's forehead. Gin said coldly, his voice filled with murderous intent, "The entire team covered for you, and you almost ruined it all. Pisco, it seems you really are old and useless..."

As he watched him about to pull the trigger, Pisco felt a chill run down his spine, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

Over the years, he had used the organization's resources to expand Baling Motors, and he was no longer willing to remain a subordinate assassin working for the organization. He wanted to leave the organization and retire as a clean-cut business tycoon.

However, the boss was clearly very unhappy with his attempt to cut things off.

Pisco understood that the sniping missions Gin had given him before, and this mission in particular, were all tests to get him to make a mistake; if Gin found any fault in him, he would be abandoned.

This time he made such a big mistake, and Danpo pointed it out to him in person. Gin didn't even need to ask the boss for permission. He could have just shot him dead. It wouldn't be unfair to him.

Pisco took a deep, trembling breath and turned to look at Kazuma Kudo.

Kudo Kazuma tilted his head and said casually, "Big brother, this old man is a bit useless, but fortunately I helped clean up this mission, and he didn't leave any loopholes with the police. I think we should spare his life."

Gin snorted coldly and put away his gun: "From now on, you'll be working for Danpo! There won't be a next time!"

Pisco breathed a sigh of relief as he felt the chill gradually dissipate as Gin turned and left.

"Danpo... Thank you so much..."

Kudo Kazuma smiled, used the skill [Sound Bewitching], and said casually, "If you follow my orders well when you work for me in the future, that will be the greatest thanks you can give me."

"Don't worry, I'm a lazy person. We won't have much to do. You can just focus on being the chairman."

Pisco nodded obediently at first, then belatedly realized—wait, had he been tricked by these master and apprentice?

Ironically, he was genuinely grateful to Danpo and felt that he should help him with his business...

This is outrageous. When did Gin start pulling this kind of stunt?
