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

Gin breathed a slight sigh of relief when he saw that Kudo Kazuma had woken up.

But he still seemed too lazy to pay attention to him.

Seeing that the vodka substitute was not there, Kudo Kazuma had an idea. He simply grabbed the blanket covering him and used the skill [Memory Recall].

Firstly, to test out my new skill, and secondly... to see what Gin has been doing sitting here all day.

The moment the skill was used, a picture suddenly appeared in Kudo Kazuma's mind.

Gin stood by his bedside with a cold face, pulled back his blanket, but his expression turned even more unpleasant when he found that the man was not awake.

Afterwards, Gin, with a sour face, checked the temperature of his forehead and told Vodka behind him to call the organization's doctor.

After the organization's doctor came and confirmed that Kudo Kazuma was just sleeping, Vodka had someone send him back.

Vodka wasn't there at the moment because he was keeping watch outside.

Kazuma Kudo blinked.

Fortunately, he had told Morofushi Kagemitsu not to come back and bother him, otherwise, if Morofushi Kagemitsu came over and ran into Gin, that would be a real mess.

Gin can tolerate a Shinichi Kudo who doesn't come running to him, but that doesn't mean he can tolerate a public security undercover agent who once infiltrated the organization.

"What are you daydreaming about?" Gin scoffed. "You're awake, aren't you getting up?"

Kudo Kazuma simply wrapped himself tighter in the blanket, turning himself into a silkworm cocoon: "This is my own home, not the base, so you don't need to worry about whether I'm staying in bed or not, right, big brother?"

Gin came to see him because he was worried about him, and of course he was very happy.

But if we ask him to go to Base 3, then there's no need, right?

Without saying a word, Gin picked him up, blanket and all, and dragged him out.

"Hey, hey, hey! Big brother, isn't that unnecessary? I'll get up! I'll get up, okay?"

Kudo Kazuma is numb.

If we keep dragging him any further, we'll be at the stairwell. Gin wouldn't be planning to drag him downstairs like this, would he?

He no longer cared about being wrapped in the blanket. He reluctantly rolled over and quickly changed his clothes before asking, "Brother, where are you taking me?"

Please, please don't let it be Base 3.

He's not afraid to fight Gin now, but he doesn't want to fight; he just wants to find a place to stay.

Is it that the bedding isn't soft enough or the sofa isn't fragrant enough?

Why did he insist on going to the training ground with Gin?

It's too exhausting, I'm not going!

Kudo Kazuma muttered to himself as he slowly washed up.

Gin ignored his nonsense and, seeing that he had finally finished rambling, said, "Let's go eat at the base."

Kudo Kazuma followed him out the door, dawdling: "Which base? Big brother, you should be clear. It's not Base 3, is it? Actually, I think the food at Base 4 is better, really."

"And let me tell you, brother, actually, all your training is pretty useless when it comes to dealing with Kashasa, isn't it? You might as well urge some vodka to help you find Kashasa's location sooner."

Speaking of which, Kudo Kazuma suddenly remembered that he needed to find some time to go back to those two places that he suspected Kassa had stayed at.

"Brother, I have something to take care of. How about I go back to the base after I've finished?"

Gin, having had enough, kicked him straight into the car: "Too much nonsense, get in!"

Kudo Kazuma slumped in the back seat of the car, giving up on the spot: "Fine then, I'll just say it, I'm not going to Base 3."

Gin scoffed, "I'm not going."

After saying that, he slammed the door shut and sat in the passenger seat.

Vodka kindly explained to Kudo Kazuma that they were going to Base 4, and then started the car.

Kudo Kazuma settled into a comfortable position and lay down, saying, "You should have said so earlier. If you had, I would have come out much earlier."

Vodka wanted to say that even if they had said they were going to Base 4 earlier, given Danpo's laziness and dawdling nature, he wouldn't have come out too soon.

However, he held back and didn't say it to her face.

After all, although Danpo is usually lazy, he's anything but lazy when it comes to getting revenge after being provoked...

Kudo Kazuma, who was giving up, didn't expect that when he and Gin left together, Conan, who was worried about him, came to check on him to see if he was feeling better, and then saw him being kicked into the car by Gin.

Conan, hiding behind a streetlamp: "..."

He said the car outside the Edogawa residence looked unfamiliar, and he never expected it to be the one that Vodka drove there.

Fortunately, he hid in time after hearing his younger brother's grumbling, otherwise he would have walked right up to Gin and come face to face because the car wasn't a Porsche 356A.

Since it's an organization's vehicle, it must be going to places related to the organization.

Without even thinking, Conan stuck a button-shaped tracker on the car as it started moving.

He then contacted Professor Agasa and asked him to secretly drive over and track the car's destination. To avoid being discovered by Kazuma, he wouldn't follow too closely, but following from a distance would be enough to determine the car's final destination.

While waiting for Dr. Agasa to arrive, Conan's mind kept replaying the scene of Gin kicking Kudo Kazuma into the car.

For a fleeting moment, he felt a pang of sympathy for Yizhen, but it was only for a moment.

After all, considering his younger brother's personality and the things he kept nagging, Gin only kicked him because he couldn't stand it anymore.

To be honest, he was actually a little envious of Gin.

He really wanted to kick his stinky little brother, but unfortunately, he always managed to dodge it...

Upon arriving at Base 4, Kudo Kazuma got out of the car and went straight to the cafeteria.

He hadn't eaten for almost twenty hours, so he needed to reconnect with some delicious food.

After lunch, Kudo Kazuma, Gin, and Vodka went to the lobby of Base 4.

Kudo Kazuma slumped onto the large leather sofa and asked, "So, big brother, what exactly is the purpose of coming to the base?"

"Task."

"...For tasks like this, you can just send a message and that's it, right? Why did you go through all this trouble, bro? Have you been having a lot of free time lately?"

Gin glanced at him, too lazy to say anything.

Kudo Kazuma chuckled: "I know you're worried about my health, so what kind of mission is it? If it's not a sniping mission, I really don't want to do it..."

Gin chuckled: "You have to do it."

Kazuma Kudo: "..."

Got it, it's not a sniping mission.

After being told by Mouth-for-Vodka, Kudo Kazuma learned that Gin's new task for him was to urge Itakura Taku to complete and hand over the software that the organization had given him to make as soon as possible.

Kazuma Kudo frowned. "Wait, isn't this job Vermouth's? What's she doing?"

Upon hearing this, Gin's expression immediately turned cold.

Vodka was a little annoyed: "Vermouth is keeping an eye on that FBI woman. She says she's about to find out something crucial. She wouldn't have gone there if you hadn't been in Hakodate before."

Kazuma Kudo: "...Isn't this just a legitimate way to slack off...?"

What does it mean to say that we're about to find some key information?

If you speak so vaguely, aren't you just trying to fool people?
