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

With the rain continuing unabated, Kudo Kazuma decided to hail a taxi and head back to his home in Beikacho 4-chome.

Before getting on the bus, Shiho Miyano's face was wrinkled, and her expression clearly showed some concern.

She opened her mouth but said nothing in front of the taxi driver.

After getting out of the car, Shiho Miyano was slightly confused when she saw the sign on the door of the villa that read "Edogawa".

"My home, or rather, my house."

Kazuma Kudo opened the door: "Don't worry, you're just staying here temporarily tonight. And Gin won't come looking for you..."

He lowered his head slightly, looked at the little girl who looked thoughtful, and probably guessed what she was thinking.

She chuckled softly: "The organization's core researcher, Sherry—Shiho Miyano, is dead."

“Gin and Fino saw Sherry’s body with their own eyes, and some members of the research team can also testify to this.”

"So... you're safe."

Unlike Sherry, who disappeared without a trace in the original story and was then relentlessly pursued by Gin.

With Sherry's body there, the organization wouldn't think twice—didn't they see that Gin only killed a few poorly guarded outsiders, and the bombing of the research institute in the original story didn't even happen?

As for whether anyone would suspect that Sherry was a fake and try to test the DNA of that "corpse"—he specifically had his Yin clone check the data Sherry left in the organization first. The system's products are not so easily verified.

Shiho Miyano is safe, and theoretically, her older brother Shinichi Kudo is also safe.

As for why it's a theory...

His older brother is so outgoing. What if he grows up one day and pops up again like in the original story to do a public deduction show? Whether it's safe or not is just a theoretical question, isn't it?

No, we have to find a way to tie up his unfortunate older brother...

As Kudo Hajime was pondering how to control his troublesome Shinichi Kudo, he suddenly felt his clothes being gently tugged at.

He looked down and met Shiho Miyano's small face.

And then there was the look in her eyes that questioned his intelligence.

“Thank you, but…” Shiho Miyano smiled enigmatically, “Are you sure you want to stand at the door like this?”

Without saying a word, Kudo Kazuma turned and walked inside.

Shiho Miyano, on the other hand, helped lock the door after entering.

Jingguang Cat heard the noise at the door and stood guard on the porch.

He was taken aback when he saw that Danpo had brought a child back.

This kid doesn't look like Conan Edogawa at all...

However, he knew that Danpo couldn't explain to him right now, so he didn't ask any more questions. He just glanced at them a few times like an ordinary cat and went back to his room.

By the way, a reminder to Narumi, who is still summarizing medical data on her computer, and Akemi, who is watching an 8 PM romance drama on TV: tell them to behave normally.

At least behave like a normal little animal.

Chengshi Tutu has become increasingly proficient at using the computer mouse and keyboard lately.

He moved the mouse to shut down the computer, then slowly dragged his still-healing leg back to the cat room.

Mingmei the cat was curled up in the corner of the sofa and didn't move at all. She just moved her little front paws and pressed the power button on the remote control.

"Edogawa brought people back with him?" Akemi asked curiously. "They don't sound like acquaintances?"

Jingguang Cat walked gracefully to the other side of the sofa, jumped lightly, and nestled in another corner of the sofa.

“Not an acquaintance, Dan—he brought a little kid with him, and he doesn’t look like that Edogawa Conan. I don’t know where he came from.”

Mingmei Cat has only called me "Danpo" a few times, and she changes her name very quickly.

But Jingguang Cat is different. In the past two years, relying on the fact that no one can understand him, he always says "Danpo" and we've gotten used to it.

It was clear that Cheng Shi Tu Tu was unaware of Dan Po's other identity, and it seemed that Dan Po had no intention of explaining, so he had no choice but to change his tune.

Akemi tilted her head, a hint of a smile in her voice: "Edogawa may not be a good person, but he's definitely not a bad one either. He wouldn't do something like kidnapping a child, would he?"

Kudo Kazuma's face darkened as soon as he stepped into the living room.

Goodness, is this how Akemi Miyano usually talks about him?

He even brought Miyano Akemi's sister along.

Seeing Kudo Kazuma's expression, Akemi's smile deepened: "It was Hiro who said it was about kidnapping children, not me."

Although she didn't know what the name "Hiro" meant, she used it anyway—it was better than having to call a cat that was actually an adult male "Xiao Jing," right?

Seeing that Miyano Akemi looked much more relaxed than before, Kudo Kazuma narrowed his eyes and turned to look at the little girl who was standing on tiptoe, trying to hang her raincoat in the entryway.

"Miyano, you can sleep in the guest room on the first floor tonight. There's only one set of pajamas for little boys, and I doubt you'll wear it, so please make do with it for now."

Shiho Miyano nodded, said "thank you" again, and planned to go to the guest room in the direction Kazuma Kudo pointed.

Akemi, who was just about to laugh, was stunned when she heard the surname "Miyano".

When Akemi saw Shiho Miyano's short brown hair and that familiar little face, she exploded with excitement.

She leaped off the sofa, ran to Shiho Miyano's feet in a few quick steps, and then grabbed her pants and coat as she climbed up.

When Shiho Miyano saw a calico kitten running towards her, she instinctively hugged the little kitten.

Upon seeing that familiar face up close, Akemi turned her head to look at Kudo Kazuma, meowing incessantly.

Kudo Kazuma pretended not to understand, smiled, and said to Miyano Shiho, "Do you remember when I asked you if you wanted to get a cat? I was referring to this little kitten."

"It seems she likes you a lot. Why don't you let her sleep with you tonight?"

Shiho Miyano originally wanted to refuse—she was used to sleeping alone, and if there was really a little life next to her, she would definitely not be able to sleep.

But seeing tears welling up in Xiao Sanhua's eyes, she subconsciously nodded and said, "Okay."

"Oh, by the way," she tilted her head, "does this kitten have a name?"

Does Akemi Miyano count?

Kudo Kazuma cleared his throat and said, "No, it hasn't been named yet. If you like it, it's yours."

Shiho Miyano nodded, picked up the kitten, and went to the guest room.

The next morning, Kudo Kazuma was woken up by a cat jumping on him.

In a daze, Kudo Kazuma picked up the cat, Kagemitsu, who was lying on top of him, and then looked at the innocent-looking Narumi bunny at the foot of the bed.

Kazuma Kudo: "?"

Hey Hiro, what's wrong with you? Do you think you're a cat? Does anyone wake someone up like that?

The little girl with brown hair, who was holding a kitten by the bed, snorted softly, "I didn't expect you to be such a late riser—get up and eat!"

Kazuma Kudo: "?"

Seeing his incredulous expression, Shiho Miyano shook her head slightly: "No wonder Vodka said you've been in poor health since childhood."

"The action team's schedule is already irregular, and you're still sleeping in and skipping breakfast, of course it will affect your health. I remember you said last time that Gin doesn't let you sleep in..."

When Gin was mentioned, Shiho Miyano's tone became somewhat subtle.

In her mind, Gin was associated with words like cold-blooded, ruthless, cruel, and bloodthirsty.

The thought that Gin would actually do something like waking someone up felt incredibly incongruous to her.

But she still reminded him with a tense expression, "For your own health, Dan—Edogawa, you'd better get rid of this habit of sleeping in."

Kudo Kazuma hesitated, then finally spoke after a moment of silence: "Sister, you're only staying at my house for a day or two, is that any of your business?"

and also.

Vodka, right?

Just how much gossip has this big mouth spread about him within the organization?!
