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

Chapter 404 Have you considered Danpo?

For a moment, Shinichi Kudo wanted to curse.

Those who wanted to yell at the people on the perimeter at the entrance were naturally the ones who wanted to curse.

Vodka was supposed to be back, but Gin is out.

He and Vodka practically jumped one after the other, didn't they?

Fortunately, judging from the reactions of these organization members, no one has realized yet that he is not the real person.

In other words, so far, the only people who can tell that the two brothers look different are their parents, the Mori family, and Ai Haibara. Even people who know him very well, like Professor Agasa and Sonoko, can't tell the difference between the two brothers just by looking at their faces.

With this in mind, Shinichi Kudo calmed down considerably and casually greeted Gin, "Big brother."

Gin nodded, walked to the side and sat down, looking at a stack of documents.

After Shinichi Kudo finished his cake, Gin glanced at him and said, "Come on, let's do a mission together."

Shinichi Kudo pointed to himself: "Huh? Me?"

Although many thoughts flashed through his mind, he still mimicked his younger brother's tone and asked, "Can I not go? I just ate and don't want to move..."

Not only did he say it, but he also casually sprawled on the sofa, perfectly mimicking his younger brother's behavior.

Gin snorted, and without saying a word, grabbed him by the collar and lifted him up.

Shinichi Kudo's body stiffened involuntarily, but he reacted quickly, following Gin's lead and walking forward while muttering to himself, "Fine, I'll go. But, brother, I didn't drive here today, so you know..."

Upon hearing this, Vodka readily followed suit.

To his surprise, Gin glanced at him and said, "You don't need to come along. This mission, Danpo and I are enough."

Vodka was taken aback for a moment, then said somewhat dejectedly, "Okay, alright..."

He's just going to be a driver, doesn't the older brother even need him to be a driver?

Could it be because Itakura Taku almost messed up that mission?

But his older brother even took him on missions back then...

Feeling the aggrieved and disappointed look in Vodka's eyes behind him, Shinichi Kudo, who was following closely behind Gin, felt numb.

No, shouldn't this black-clad organization be portrayed as ruthless, paranoid, cold-blooded, and murderous?

Why is it so strange?

This was completely different from what he had imagined!

Shinichi Kudo's doubts reached their peak after following Gin to the underground parking garage and seeing Gin sit directly in the driver's seat.

To be fair, he can drive, so there's no need for Gin to be his chauffeur...

So, what exactly is my younger brother's position in this strangely styled organization?

Gin was driving him?

Isn't Gin Kazuma's master?

Is this appropriate?

After letting his mind wander for a while, Shinichi Kudo relaxed considerably once he was sure that Gin hadn't recognized him. He even had the idea of ​​taking advantage of Gin's lack of vigilance to chat with him and get some information out of him.

"Big brother, what's the mission this time, and where are we going?"

Gin glanced at him: "You'll know when we get there."

"What about the last task?" Shinichi Kudo asked, mimicking his younger brother's expression and tone. "Itakura Suguru didn't even finish that software. He submitted half-finished software. Can that be considered completing the task?"

Gin hummed in response but didn't say anything.

Shinichi Kudo nodded first, then asked with a hint of gossip, "So, what exactly is in that software? It's something that made that good-for-nothing Tequila pester that Itakura Taku for almost a year."

Gin glanced at him again and sneered, "It's none of your business, so don't pry."

Shinichi Kudo pursed his lips and remained silent.

Along the way, he asked two or three questions in the same casual tone as his younger brother, but unfortunately he didn't get any answers from Gin. Instead, the surrounding buildings made him feel more and more familiar.

"Big brother?" Shinichi Kudo's tone, mimicking Kazuma Kudo's, became increasingly natural. "Weren't you supposed to be on a mission? Why are you in Beika Town?"

Gin didn't explain, he just hummed in agreement.

A few minutes later, the Porsche 356A stopped outside the Edogawa residence in Beikacho 4-chome.

"get off."

Gin got out of the car after he finished speaking.

Shinichi Kudo was taken aback. Why was he at his brother's house?

Luckily, he had the key.

To avoid arousing Gin's suspicion, he casually took out his keys and opened the door.

Gin walked inside without saying a word, but Shinichi Kudo couldn't help but ask, "So, big brother, what are you doing at my house?"

What if they come to take something that only Yizhen knows about, but he doesn't know where it is? Wouldn't that give us away?

Gin simply said "Too much nonsense" and went inside, heading straight up the stairs.

Shinichi Kudo followed and took a few steps upstairs, then suddenly stopped.

Gin's words have been so ambiguous from beginning to end, could it be... that he has discovered his identity?

Putting everything else aside, according to Kazuma's account, Gin deliberately let him go at Xianqiao Station a few days ago.

In other words, Gin likely knows that Conan Edogawa is Shinichi Kudo...

Thinking about it this way, it's not surprising that Gin discovered his identity.

Thinking of this, Shinichi Kudo subconsciously retreated down the stairs, secretly taking out his anesthetic watch and holding it to the other side of his body.

Since he's currently in Shinichi Kudo's form, neither the power-enhancing shoes nor the soccer belt the professor just made for him are usable. The only thing he can use is the tranquilizer watch.

Just as Shinichi Kudo turned his gaze back to Gin, who was going upstairs, intending to give him an injection, Gin stopped in his tracks.

When the cold gaze fell upon him, Shinichi Kudo's breathing unconsciously slowed down.

As expected! Gin discovered it!

Gin sneered, "What? You've finally realized it?"

Shinichi Kudo stared at Gin, secretly searching for the right moment to fire the tranquilizer dart, while stalling for time: "When did you find out?"

No one in the entire base realized that he wasn't Kudo Kazuma, but Gin discovered it. Could it be that he had missed something in the details?

“Eyes.” Gin walked down the stairs slowly and deliberately, looking down at the face that was so similar to Danpo’s. Out of consideration for Danpo’s brother, he kindly explained, “Your eyes are different.”

Shinichi Kudo sighed.

That's true; their eyes aren't exactly the same.

Unfortunately, not many people could tell.

Who knew that Gin was one of them?

"So, you brought me here on purpose?"

As Gin drew closer, Shinichi Kudo pretended to be nervous and backed away while silently calculating the distance between them.

Once they reached the coffee table, and estimating that Gin wouldn't be able to dodge the tranquilizer dart, Shinichi Kudo immediately raised his hand, quickly aimed, and fired the tranquilizer dart at Gin's neck.

Gin acted as if he hadn't even noticed the tranquilizer dart, making no attempt to dodge it.

Shinichi Kudo's eyes immediately lit up: There's hope!

Gin didn't dodge that tranquilizer dart.

Because he simply used his foot to pick up an apple from the coffee table, and by sheer coincidence, the apple blocked the anesthetic needle and landed in his hand.

Upon seeing the apple blocking the anesthetic needle, Shinichi Kudo couldn't help but frown.

Japanese fruits are relatively expensive, so families who can afford it often display one or two kinds of fruit in their living room to show that they have the means.

However, Kazuma Kudo is different; besides sweets, he also genuinely loves eating fruit.

So whether it was Morofushi Kagemitsu or Asano Minoru, whoever saw that the coffee table was empty would buy some fruit to put there. Kudo Kazuma naturally did the same, and even Kudo Shinichi would sometimes buy fruit for his younger brother when he saw the coffee table was empty.

Originally, the fruit was just a way for everyone to take care of Kudo Kazuma. Who would have thought that it would become the key to blocking the anesthetic needle?

Missing his target, Shinichi Kudo quickly retreated.

But Gin has plenty of experience chasing and beating up Kazuma Kudo. Shinichi Kudo is not as fast as Kazuma Kudo, so how could he possibly dodge?

He casually tossed the apple into the fruit bowl, leaped over the coffee table, and caught up with Shinichi Kudo in just a few steps. He then kicked him, the movement and angle of which were exactly the same as when he punched Kazuma Kudo.

Unfortunately, Shinichi Kudo lacked Kazuma Kudo's speed and close-quarters combat skills. He was hit squarely by that merciless kick, and if it weren't for the sofa stopping him, he would probably have been sent flying several meters away.

However, because of the sofa behind him, Shinichi Kudo had difficulty dodging Gin's attacks. After struggling to parry a few times, he simply chose to fight back.

In terms of close combat ability, he can at most overpower an average adult male, and it is obviously impossible for him to compete with Gin.

The fact that Gin was able to seize the opportunity to fight back was entirely due to the fact that none of his attacks were aimed at vital points.

Shinichi Kudo was only able to retaliate a few times before Gin kicked him away, sending him flying and crashing heavily against the wall.

Even he couldn't help but groan in pain, then took small breaths to try to relieve the pain and get up as soon as possible.

Gin didn't continue his attack, but instead sneered, "I already let you off once at Xianqiao Station, yet you still dared to storm the organization's base alone. You've got some nerve! You truly are Danpo's brother."

Shinichi Kudo slowly stood up, leaning against the wall, and asked, "So, should I thank you?"

"Thank me?" Gin scoffed. "If you really want to thank me, you might as well tell me where Sherry is."

Shinichi Kudo's expression changed slightly.

Did he guess it?

Right……

Gin knew that Conan Edogawa was Shinichi Kudo, so how could Shinichi Kudo be standing right in front of him now?

Of course, what Shinichi Kudo didn't know was that Gin had already guessed something when he first saw the puppet body that Kazuma Kudo threw out.

Seeing Shinichi Kudo recover now only confirms this idea.

The thought of how Danpo had been secretly causing trouble for him as soon as he returned to Tokyo made Gin's hand itch to hit him again.

Shinichi Kudo, unaware that Gin was currently preoccupied with how to beat up his younger brother, feigned ignorance and said, "What Sherry? I don't know!"

"You don't know? Even if you've never met Sherry, Danpo should have told you about the pill you were given. How could you know nothing about Sherry?"

Gin scoffed, "It's just a cover-up."

Shinichi Kudo frowned but remained silent.

Gin can tolerate Kazuma for other things, but if he knew that Haibara was able to escape and that the antidote could be improved version after version all because of Kazuma's secret machinations, would Gin really let Kazuma off the hook for such an act that is almost a betrayal of the organization?

With all this in mind, he was even less inclined to have any further communication with Gin about Sherry.

To his surprise, Gin didn't intend to say much about this matter. Instead, he walked towards him step by step and asked, "You're covering up Sherry's affair for Danpo, aren't you?"

"It's ridiculous. When you barged into the organization, didn't you consider Danpo at all?"

Shinichi Kudo raised an eyebrow: "Besides you, no one else in the organization knows about our relationship. And I believe that with Kazuma's abilities, no one else will be able to find out that we are brothers."

"Even if something really happens to me, it's just that someone took advantage of his resemblance to Ichijin to act boldly but accidentally exposed himself. As long as you don't make a fuss, no one will target him for it."

From the moment he conceived the idea of ​​impersonating Kazuma to infiltrate the organization's base, Shinichi Kudo considered the consequences of his exposure. Only after confirming that Kazuma would not be implicated did he take action.

He didn't care much about his own safety.

Being able to safely enter and leave the base and find out some information is of course the best outcome. Even if something happens, as long as the information can be transmitted, he won't regret it.

As for Kazuma's safety... seeing that Gin was actually questioning him on Kazuma's behalf, Shinichi Kudo knew that Gin wouldn't reveal that they were brothers when it came to Kazuma's safety.

Shinichi Kudo was confident and composed about this matter, but he didn't expect that after hearing these analyses, Gin's originally expressionless face would suddenly turn frosty.

Before he could dodge, Gin rushed forward and grabbed him by the neck.

Gin's force was immense; Shinichi Kudo's head and back slammed hard against the wall, the impact causing him to momentarily lose his senses.

He tried to knee Gin in the stomach, but Gin suddenly increased the force in his hand. The feeling of suffocation made Shinichi Kudo lose his strength and he could only raise his hand to pry Gin's hand away so that he could escape from the feeling of suffocation.

Gin ignored Shinichi Kudo's struggles, grabbed him by the neck, and asked in a cold voice, "Have you ever thought about what Danpo would do if something happened to you at the organization's base?"

Given Gin's understanding of Tanpo, it goes without saying that if Shinichi Kudo really had an accident at the organization's base, Tanpo would probably not just secretly dismantle the organization, but would openly become its enemy.

He didn't believe that Shinichi Kudo hadn't thought of that!

Thinking about this, Gin even silently considered whether, with the power he and Danpo currently possessed, they could openly oppose the entire organization.

Thinking about it this way, Gin got even angrier, and his beloved Beretta pressed her forehead against Shinichi Kudo's.

"If it weren't for Danpo, Shinichi Kudo, you would be dead here today."

After saying that, he flung his hand and threw Shinichi Kudo to the ground.

"What's going on, bro? You sneaked into my house while I was out. You didn't climb over the wall, did you?"

Kudo Kazuma's voice came from outside, and Gin immediately turned his head to look back.

Kudo Kazuma, who had been twirling his car key with his finger the whole way, was stunned when he entered the house, and the car key he was twirling on his finger suddenly flew out of his hand.

"Wait... what's going on?"

Kudo Kazuma was stunned when he got home.
