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

Eyes facing each other.

Seeing Kudo Kazuma's serious expression, Sherry felt a glimmer of hope rise in her heart.

She had indeed been in a state of great anxiety for a while, constantly feeling that something was going to happen to her sister.

But after Danpo asked her if she wanted to get a cat, she felt as if "something happened to her sister" was just her imagination.

This situation was truly torturous for Shirley, who was isolated from information.

She has been tossing and turning in distress for the past few days, unable to continue her research or even sleep well.

When she suddenly learned that her sister had indeed had an accident, she was devastated. But after the collapse, a strange feeling rose in her heart—maybe her sister was still alive.

Once the thought arose, this almost delusional idea could no longer be suppressed, and it continued to spread in my mind.

But the fact that her sister had been murdered constantly reminded her how ridiculous her thought was.

Now that Danpo asked such a question in this tone, Shirley couldn't help but think of that possibility again.

Maybe... my sister isn't in any danger?

Perhaps even though my sister had an accident, she's still alive?

If she remembered correctly, that day she asked Sister Danpo how she was doing, and Danpo said... she was alright.

From that day on, the panic and despair that had gripped her heart because "something happened to my sister" faded considerably. Did that mean...?

A thousand thoughts raced through Shirley's mind, but she couldn't bring herself to speak and confirm her thoughts with Danpo—even if her sister was really alive, even if she was related to Danpo, he wouldn't say it in this place, at this time.

Just like her speculation about whether Danpo and Shinichi Kudo are twin brothers, she could never ask Danpo whether he knew or not.

Seeing Sherry lost in thought, Kazuma Kudo stopped looking at her and continued flipping through the documents—if he didn't copy them down soon, all the documents would be destroyed in the explosion.

After a long silence, Shirley asked again, "Danpo, how is my sister?"

"Okay."

Same question, same answer.

Sherry, Shiho Miyano, suddenly felt much calmer.

However, Kazuma Kudo didn't give her a chance to breathe a sigh of relief. Instead, he continued, "Akami Miyano wants to leave the organization, and even wants to take you, a core researcher of the organization, with her. I think you know very well what will happen to her."

"Your sister asked me to tell you that no matter what, you must live well."

Sherry's heart, which had just calmed down, suddenly trembled. She stared straight ahead at Kudo Kazuma, who had stopped rummaging through the documents again, and tears welled up in her eyes.

My sister...

"Sherry, I still have to remind you, the only way to leave the organization is to die. And your sister, Miyano Akemi, is already dead. You're trying to rebel against the organization; do you also want to go see your sister?"

He looked at Shirley, whose eyes were filled with tears, and said in an extremely serious tone, "I hope you can think about it carefully and make sure you understand."

"Don't harbor any wishful thinking that you can survive by interrupting your research—Gin won't give you that chance. The only chance is for you to figure it out yourself."

A reminder to stop now; it's time to give Shuichi Akai a hard time.

"And another thing." Kudo Kazuma waved the document in his hand and tossed it aside. "That day I saw Akai Shuichi, the one who defected back then, Rye Whiskey—he wasn't there to rescue your sister."

After Kazuma Kudo left, Sherry finally couldn't hold back anymore, and large tears rolled down her cheeks...

It turns out that what I had before was just a ridiculous illusion. My sister, she...

In the office behind, a wave of sadness surged forth.

Kudo Kazuma considerately closed the door for Sherry, then turned to look at Gin waiting outside, his face immediately displaying a look of resignation.

"I've said everything I can say. As for what Sherry thinks, that's none of my business."

He shrugged, speaking clearly and in a bright voice: "I hope she's smart enough to understand what I mean."

Sherry, who heard Kudo Kazuma's words through the door, twitched the corners of her mouth, but couldn't even muster a self-deprecating laugh.

What does "丹魄" mean?

My sister has passed away. Do you expect her to stay in the organization and continue researching those deadly drugs?

Are you kidding me?

She'd rather die than be allowed to continue her research and contribute to the organization that harmed her sister!

At least, she might be able to see her sister after she dies.

Sherry, who was bursting with a death wish, suddenly froze, and the words that Kudo Kazuma had said flashed through her mind.

"The only way to leave the organization is to die."

"Akami Miyano is dead..."

Do you also want to see your sister?

"The only chance is for you to figure it out yourself..."

"I hope you can think about it carefully and make sure you understand..."

In a flash of inspiration, she seemed to grasp something, but upon learning of her sister's confirmed death, her mind was in turmoil, and she couldn't understand or comprehend anything...

Calm down, Shiho Miyano.

Based on the speculation that Danpo and Shinichi Kudo might be twin brothers, Sherry instinctively chose to believe him.

But what exactly is it that she needs to figure out?

Oh, right! Shinichi Kudo!

"The only way is to die."

"The only chance is for you to figure it out yourself..."

Sherry's heart raced again, just like when she discovered that Shinichi Kudo had taken the drug and turned into a child...

In the main hall of Base 2, Kudo Kazuma was drawing simple turtle sketches on paper, using a pen he had taken from Sherry's office.

"Brother, there is something I don't understand. Please enlighten me."

Gin glanced sideways at Kazuma Kudo: "Speak like a human."

"Alright." Kudo Kazuma put down his pen. "How did Sherry find out about Miyano Akemi?"

It was far too early for the sisters to meet again; the research team members around them were unaware of Miyano Akemi's situation, and only a few members of the surveillance team on the periphery knew about it, but they would never dare to mention it.

How did Shirley find out?

Gin snorted coldly, and his chilling aura erupted once more.

Chianti, who was flipping through some magazine nearby, looked up and sneered, saying irritably, "It's tequila! He deliberately brought up the last mission in front of many researchers at Fino's place, so naturally he mentioned Miyano Akemi."

“Fino…” she shrugged. “I heard you’ve already met him, you know what I mean.”

"understood……"

Kudo Kazuma gave a slight smirk.

The research team was unaware of this beforehand, so of course no one would have given them a gag order.

Even if ordinary researchers wouldn't dare to talk nonsense in front of Sherry, Fino, that chatterbox, is a ticking time bomb—who knows who said it and Sherry overheard it.

But the real culprit is agave.

Alright, you weren't beaten enough last time, so you've come here specifically to die, haven't you?

Kudo Kazuma looked up at Gin, about to say something, when he heard Gin say in a deep voice, "Danpo, keep an eye on Tequila lately, keep a close eye on him."

Kudo Kazuma was taken aback: "What? He's an undercover agent?"

Gin frowned: "Do you have evidence?"

"No, didn't all the people you targeted in the past turn out to be undercover agents in the end?"

Gin remained silent, then snorted and said, "If that's really the case, you should be shot a hundred times over."

Does this mean that Gin is constantly targeting Tanpo?

Vodka instinctively shrank his neck.

Cohen, who had been completely unnoticed, was taken aback.

Chianti suddenly looked up, a strange light flashing in her eyes.

Only Kudo Kazuma leaned back strategically: "Hey bro, why are you staring at me like that?"
