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

With yet another murder case emerging, Conan immediately got busy again.

Kudo Kazumi was too lazy to run around and wanted to find an excuse to stay at Kumada Tatsuya's house or simply go back to Tachibana Kensuke's villa to slack off, but Conan refused to agree this time.

"No way, I'm sober now, why am I slacking off? I need to investigate some clues. You're the best at finding unconventional solutions, why don't you drive me there?"

Seeing Conan tugging at his sleeve relentlessly, Kudo Kazuma squatted down helplessly and asked, "Honestly, is your only request that I follow you?"

Conan recalled how decisively the brat had answered when he asked him if Danpo was him—so decisive it sounded like he was being unreasonable. He immediately nodded in agreement: "Yes! You said you're Danpo, so what's wrong with me monitoring you?"

Kazuma Kudo: "...No, you're a great detective, where did you learn this shameless behavior from?"

Conan: "..."

Conan didn't want to say anything, so he just glared at his younger brother speechlessly.

Who did they learn from? How come that person doesn't even have a clue?

Kudo Kazuma immediately understood his older brother's thoughts, and said with a pout, "You said you'd keep an eye on me, so shouldn't you follow me wherever I go? Let's go to the villa for some snacks! I must say, the housekeeper's snacks are quite delicious."

Conan let out a sigh of relief, ignoring Kudo Kazuma's words: "Let's go to the boat rental shop first. I have something to ask them."

Kazuma Kudo shrugged, greeted Kogoro Mouri and Ran, and then got into the car with Conan in his arms.

What can we do? Just spoil them.

Although Conan suspects him, doesn't let him sleep in, and always tries to find evidence to prove something, what can he do when his brother is the one he's talking about?

Upon arriving at the boat rental shop, Conan went off to observe something, while Kudo Kazuma didn't even get out of the car. He played on his phone for a while, glanced at the group chat, and saw that the sample wasn't ready yet, so he put it aside for the time being.

A short while later, Conan returned: "Let's go back to the villa. By the way, why didn't you get out of the car?"

"Your only request was that I come with you, but you didn't say I had to go down and look for clues with you." Kudo Kazuma shrugged. "Ai's skincare product samples are almost ready, and I need to keep an eye on the products. With you here, why should I worry about any cases?"

Conan opened his mouth, but in the end, he could only say speechlessly, "Let's go back first."

What can we do? Just spoil them.

Even though his younger brother committed murder and might still be a member of that organization, and even if he doesn't usually care much about other people's lives, what can you do when his brother is still his own brother?

Besides, he doesn't have any evidence yet, does he?

When the two drove back to the villa, Xiaolan was already sweeping the floor in front of the villa, while Yuichi Sakuraba was keeping company with the little dog named John at the villa entrance.

After telling Ran about his discovery, Conan turned to Yuichi Sakuraba and asked, "Uncle Sakuraba, do you know anything about the case of Tatsuya Kumada five years ago?"

Seeing that Conan was pretending to be young again to get clues, Kazuma Kudo shook his head, greeted Ran, and went back to the living room.

Kudo Kazuma received a reply from Morofushi Kagemitsu regarding the contact person for Kasasa, Nishimura Kota.

So it's true that having someone on the red side can make things easier; Kota Nishimura's whereabouts were quickly and thoroughly investigated.

Kota Nishimura, 33 years old, lives at 12-2-13 Beikacho. An orphan with no wife or children, he runs a small karaoke bar with two security guards and seven or eight waiters. Aside from these people, he only has a flirtatious relationship with his university classmate, Kaori Togawa, who is married…

This information made Kazuma Kudo raise an eyebrow.

It's true that this person's social circle is not very large, but who knows if the person going to the KTV is a customer or someone else?

Besides, if the other party can contact Kashasa directly, it's probably only online.

After thinking it over, Kudo Kazuma decided that it would be better to go and find Nishimura Kota directly when he got back.

"Ichima!" Conan suddenly rushed over, grabbed a piece of paper with an address written on it, and slammed it in front of him. "Come on, let's go here!"

Kudo Kazuma glanced at it, speechless: "What clues have you found this time?"

Even so, since it wasn't too far away, he still drove Conan there.

It was a sparsely populated village. As far as the eye could see, there was only an old woman wearing a headscarf, working in the fields.

After the car pulled over, Conan got out.

Kudo Kazuma sat in the driver's seat, bored, and rested with his eyes closed for a while before Conan returned.

Anyway, Kudo Kazuma didn't plan to get involved in the case today, so he completely cosplayed as Vodka and, as Conan requested, took him back to Tachibana Kensuke's villa.

Seeing that his younger brother had completely given up, Conan simply didn't force him to participate. Instead, he discussed the case with Ran and Kogoro Mouri, and then Kogoro Mouri took the lead while Ran assisted in solving the case.

Kudo Kazuma didn't pay any attention to the case at all until the police took the murderer away. Only then did he realize that the murderer was the housekeeper who made delicious sweets.

It's a pity he only got to eat snacks twice. It seems he'll have to go back to the cafeteria at Base 4 to mooch chocolate cakes next time.

The case was solved, and the car that Kogoro Mouri rented was finally repaired.

Seeing the trio from the agency get into the car that Kogoro Mouri had rented, Kazuma Kudo couldn't help but give them a speechless half-moon look.

So, what exactly is the reason for his trip here?

Just to complete a quest and collect a couple more soul fragments?

If he had to choose, he'd rather stay home and not go out, saving himself the trouble of being pulled out of bed and not being able to sleep in, not to mention he'd have to keep up the vodka cosplay and be Conan's driver for a day.

As Kudo Kazuma drove back, muttering to himself, the car driven by Mouri Kogoro, which was in front of him, suddenly paused twice and then stalled.

Kazuma Kudo, who had just stopped the car, was speechless.

Seeing the three members of the agency get out of the car, he couldn't help but lean back tactically.

Were the three of them just incredibly unlucky, or did the will of the world feel that its trip couldn't be in vain?

"Alright, get in the car." He said somewhat speechlessly, "Uncle, you should just call the rental company and have them take this piece of junk that failed quality inspection back."

After the car rental company staff settled the bill with Kogoro Mouri and towed away the broken car, the group rode back in Kazuma Kudo's car.

Ran couldn't help but exclaim, "Thank goodness Conan called for Kazuma right away, otherwise we don't know when we'd be able to get back to Tokyo today."

Kazuma Kudo glanced at Conan in the rearview mirror and gave a slight smirk.

Well, if Xiaolan hadn't brought it up, he wouldn't have realized it yet.

He asked what he had come here for. So Conan had been planning to spy on him from the beginning?

This unlucky brother is really something else.
