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

As they were leaving the hotel, Kudo Kazuma coincidentally ended up in the same elevator as Conan and the others.

"Oh my god? Big brother, we meet again in the elevator."

Conan's cute voice rang out in the quiet elevator.

Goodness, the unlucky guy used to be too embarrassed to act cute in front of me, but now that he has a different face, he can actually hear the classic "Ah-le-le" so sweetly!

Kudo Kazuma secretly rolled his eyes, then smiled and said to Conan, "Yeah, what a coincidence. I'm here to meet someone. What about you guys, little brothers?"

Meeting? What? Meeting so soon?

And why carry such a big bag when we meet?

He recited it again!

Conan was suspicious, but he smiled sweetly and said, "This lady has amnesia. We're helping her find out about her past..."

As they were talking, the women traveling with them suddenly groaned and covered their foreheads with their hands, as if in great pain.

Immediately afterward, she ran out as the elevator doors opened.

"Hey!"

Kogoro Mouri was the first to chase after him.

Conan and Ran quickly followed.

As Kudo Kazuma leisurely walked out of the hotel, he saw a car crash into Kogoro Mouri and the woman at the front.

Kogoro Mouri barely managed to jump forward and dodge it, but he fell face-first into the mud.

The woman's aura hardened, her expression changed, and she leaped up to dodge the car, landing gracefully just as Kogoro Mouri crashed to the ground.

After missing its target, the car swerved and turned around to continue its attack on Kogoro Mouri.

"father!"

Ran's expression changed, and she went straight for Kogoro Mouri, who had just sat up from the ground.

Upon seeing this, Kazuma Kudo dropped his backpack and rushed over. He and Ran each grabbed one of Kogoro Mouri's hands and dragged him a short distance away, narrowly avoiding the car.

Conan originally wanted to rush up, but when he saw the backpack lying next to him, he had a different idea. He quickly activated his foot strength and kicked the large backpack that he had previously found suspicious away.

With a loud "thump!", a dull sound rang out, accompanied by the screeching of brakes and a faint cracking sound.

The car was hit on the side of the driver's side by the large, heavy backpack. Not only was a piece of the car window shattered, but even the driver's side door was deformed.

For a moment, the entire room fell silent.

Kudo Kazuma silently gave a thumbs-up: Goodness, if this had happened before the deal, that kick would have been incredibly satisfying. But he wouldn't have carelessly tossed a backpack full of explosives on the ground before the deal...

All eyes were on Conan, but Conan was completely oblivious, running straight for the car like a wild dog.

"Who goes there! Get down here right now!"

The driver was clearly unharmed; the sudden braking was merely an instinct to save his life.

Seeing that he and his car were both fine, and that only a small child was trying to stop him, the driver was still thinking of starting the car and leaving, thinking that he might as well run the child over!

The driver gritted his teeth and started the car, but before he could even press the accelerator, everything suddenly went black, and he lost consciousness, slumping onto the steering wheel.

While everyone was distracted, Conan quietly put away his tranquilizer watch and shouted, "Uncle! The driver has passed out!"

Kogoro Mouri quickly followed.

Kazuma Kudo frowned and asked Ran, who was standing next to him, "Even in this situation, shouldn't we call the police?"

Xiao Lan suddenly realized what was happening and quickly took out her phone to call the police.

While waiting for the police, Kogoro Mouri was in charge of guarding the car and the driver, while Conan struggled to drag Kazuma Kudo's large backpack, slowly making his way over.

Kudo Kazuma couldn't stand it anymore and casually picked up the backpack.

"Thank you, big brother. My name is Conan Edogawa. May I ask your name, big brother?"

"Hello little brother, my name is Kurosawa Kakuzu."

With a hint of doubt, Kudo Kazuma asked, "That uncle just now looked familiar. Wasn't he the famous detective Kogoro Mouri who's always on TV and in the newspapers?"

“Yes.” Ran nodded. “My father is Kogoro Mouri. I am his daughter, Ran Mouri. Mr. Kurosawa, thank you for saving my father.”

Kazuma Kudo shook his head: "No need to be so polite, I was just helping out when I saw it."

Conan asked curiously, "Kurosawa-nii, your backpack is so heavy! What's inside?"

"It's a book." Kudo Kazuma smiled. "To be able to kick such a heavy backpack away with one kick, Conan, your kicking strength is really amazing."

Conan paused for a moment, then suddenly realized that his previous behavior had gone a bit too far. He quickly scratched his head and acted cute: "Because I like playing soccer, haha, ahahaha, I was too anxious back then, my foot still hurts..."

Kudo Kazuma smiled politely, but couldn't help but think to himself that he was complaining.

Why didn't Mom think of giving this guy some acting training?

Since the driver came specifically to kill Uncle Mori, Inspector Megure, who is in charge of the murder case, was the one who came this time.

The driver who tried to run over Kogoro Mouri but was knocked out by Conan with a single needle was in disguise.

After the disguise was removed, everyone realized that he was Yuda, who had escaped from prison a few days earlier.

It turns out that Yuta was a murderer who was sent to prison by Kogoro Mouri for insurance fraud after killing his wife. Now that he has escaped, he is determined to kill Kogoro Mouri as revenge.

As for that woman, she hasn't fully recovered her memory yet, but her identity has been completely revealed by Yuda—a female assassin hired by Yuda to kill Kogoro Mouri, who has lost her memory for some reason.

Since she's a female assassin, she should be captured as well.

After Megure and the others left with Yuda and a female assassin named Tachibana Maya, Kudo Kazuma also left.

Too lazy to go back to the base, he simply called in a third party and gave them the money he got from selling eight eggs to take back with him.

Not long after returning home, Kazuma Kudo received a message from Conan.

That evening, he went to the firm for a free meal.

After dinner, Kogoro Mouri watched Yoko Okino's variety show on the second floor, while Ran, Conan, and Kazuma Kudo went up to the third floor.

"So..." Kudo Kazuma asked, holding the invitation sent by Moriya Teiji, "you want me to go in your place?"

Conan sighed, "There's nothing I can do. Where can I go in this state? Besides, Ran won't let me try baijiu again—I've been thinking, maybe drinking baijiu will help when I have a cold..."

Kudo Kazuma was speechless: "Are you really planning to become an alcoholic?"

Ran frowned and said, "Shinichi, we know absolutely nothing about that organization right now. Even if drinking that stuff works, it wouldn't be appropriate for you to suddenly turn back."

How could she not want Shinichi to return to his original self as soon as possible?

But these things can't be rushed, and besides...

Ran sighed and said seriously to Conan, "You were in too much pain that day, so you probably didn't notice. Maybe it was a connection between twin brothers, but Kazuma was in just as much pain as you were."

"Shinichi, I think you shouldn't try it casually before you understand this point. Even if you do try, you should discuss it with Kazuma first."

When Ran mentioned Kazuma Kudo, Conan looked at his younger brother in shock: "Kazuma, you..."

He vaguely remembered hearing Ichijin say something about the strong connection between twins that day, and he thought he was just delirious from the pain. Turns out it was true?

Kazuma Kudo shrugged: "I think Ran is right. What's the point of all that trouble for just a few minutes of rest?"

As for the fact that he also had a reaction, it's simple: just stay away from that unlucky guy next time.

Staying away from death and staying safe is probably an 80% guarantee.

Conan nodded seriously, then looked up at Kudo Kazuma: "So, are you going to the banquet tomorrow in my place or not?"

Kudo Kazuma pointed to the words in Moriya Teiji's letter that mentioned he could bring friends: "No. I have something to do tomorrow. Figure it out yourself."
