After being kicked off the car, Kudo Kazuma was speechless.

"What's going on? I just told the truth, and it actually broke Gin's defenses. There are just too many useless people in the action group."

Conan rubbed his bruised knee and turned to stare at his younger brother: "So, Kazuma, you really want to secretly take control of that organization? And Gin actually supports you in doing so?"

Kudo Kazuma dusted off his skirt and walked towards 4-chome, saying nonchalantly, "So what? If you can do it, give it a try."

"But you should know better than me what kind of organization that is. Such an organization is doomed to perish sooner or later. Are you trying to get deeper and deeper into this mess?"

Conan, who followed, strongly disagreed with this.

He was hoping that one day after the organization was destroyed, his younger brother could completely sever ties with it, even if it meant taking Gin with him.

As a result, this kid actually wanted to directly become the actual person in charge of that organization.

Kudo Kazuma shrugged: "You can't say that. What do you mean by getting deeper and deeper into trouble? If the organization becomes mine, then I can decide what will become of it. If I just change the name of the organization to the Kurosawa Foundation, then the previous organization will be wiped out!"

Conan: "..."

He was speechless.

So that's what you really think?

After all that talk about dismantling or destroying the organization, it turns out that Ichijin is just trying to find a different approach, just like he's deducing the case.

"What else?" Kudo Kazuma said confidently. "Don't you think this method is actually very efficient?"

"The boss's ridiculous silver bullets, his A drug, his human experiments—all that rubbish is utterly pointless. If it were really under my jurisdiction, I'd just shut it down, wouldn't that be enough?"

"If those drug researches were truly cut off at their source, do you think cases like yours would still occur?"

Conan was truly silent now.

To be honest, Yi Zhen's method is indeed quite simple and crude.

They have no idea who the so-called organization's boss is, where he is, or what he wants. Even though the FBI, MI6, and the police have planted spies within the organization, they still haven't been able to figure out the boss's true intentions.

If Kazuma were to take control of that organization, with him, Mr. Akai, and Bourbon and the others supervising it, it might actually have unexpected positive effects.

Thinking this way, Conan actually managed to convince himself.

but……

"But Kazuma, at least Gin is right about one thing: what you want to do is too risky and too dangerous... Does it really have to be this way?"

Seeing Conan's furrowed brows, Kudo Kazuma shrugged: "It's alright, actually. I'm not fighting alone. I already told you everything last time, do you expect me to explain every single force I control in the organization to you?"

Of course, these are not the main points.

Whether it's the power he and Gin control within the organization, or the assistance from Amuro Tooru, Akai Shuichi, and the others, these are all things used for stabilization afterward.

His greatest asset, of course, is that he has a unique advantage that others don't.

And the "cocoon" that's coming soon.

He had already communicated with the system. Since Noah's Ark had developed self-awareness, it should be similar to a human soul.

In theory, he could also use a puppet body.

He refused to believe that Noah's Ark wouldn't be tempted by the allure of a puppet body.

If he remembered correctly, Hiroki Sawada, the genius child who built Noah's Ark, first had no friends because he stood out from the other children. Later, after being taken to the United States, it was no different from being under house arrest.

Noah's Ark, which inherited Hiroki's will, should be happy to have a body so that he can walk in the world like an ordinary person and truly come into contact with all kinds of people and things, right?

While Kudo Kazuma was pondering how to take Noah's Ark on a trip, and Conan was calculating his younger brother's chances of winning before daring to try and poach the organization's boss, Kudo Kazuma's phone rang.

Upon seeing the caller ID, he immediately turned on speakerphone.

"Seriously~ It's already past five o'clock, why are you two still out playing around?"

Upon hearing Yukiko Kudo's statement, Kazuma Kudo was speechless.

Is this her biological mother? Is she even speaking human language?

Conan said speechlessly, "Didn't we say before that we helped Inspector Megure solve a case? We're already in Beika Town now."

"Oh, really? Then you can come over to Professor Agasa's place." Yukiko Kudo said with a smile, "Professor Agasa asked us to take care of Haruka and Ai before he left, so we'll have dinner here tonight."

Kazuma Kudo and Conan exchanged a glance and both replied in unison, "Okay."

Then Kudo Kazuma promptly hung up the phone.

Just kidding, they're not going.

Should we let the Haibara sisters see them in women's clothing?

And considering Yukiko Kudo's perverse sense of humor, Shuichi Akai might even see it...

They wouldn't go under these circumstances!

"Where to? The firm or my place?"

"Lan and her dad are at the firm, why don't you come to your place instead?"

"Okay, we can't let Mom get away with it."

The two brothers hit it off immediately and returned to their Edogawa residence.

Then, as they entered the living room, they saw the Haibara sisters sitting on the sofa, chatting and cutting fruit to make a fruit platter; while in the open kitchen, Ran was helping Yukiko Kudo prepare dinner...

"Hey~ Shin-chan and Shin-chan... oh wait, I mean Yuri-chan and Rika-chan are back~" Yukiko Kudo waved to her two "daughters" with a smile, then said to Ran beside her with a hint of pride, "See, Ran-chan, I told you so! As long as we tell them we're going to Professor Agasa's house, they'll definitely come back here~"

Kazuma Kudo: "..."

Conan: "..."

The two brothers exchanged a glance and saw the same speechless expression on each other's faces.

Okay, so you predicted their prediction, right?

Are you trying to play mind games with them over dinner?

Their mother, with her quirky sense of humor, is truly a loving mother!

If they were to say they went to the wrong door and turn around and leave now, would it be too late?
