Model worker and his little darling

Putting down his phone, Pingqing picked up the photos, several of which were pictures of Gin as a child. He looked at Gin with a smile and said, "Gin-chan~, you were so cute when you were little. It's a pity I didn't get to see it with my own eyes."

Hearing the regret in Pingqing's tone, Gin kissed Pingqing's cheek, "It's enough that you've seen me as I am now."

He had no idea that the BOSS had kept so many photos of him when he was a child, and even said he would give them to them as gifts, which ruined his image in front of Pingqing.

Sensing Gin's resentment, Taira carefully put the photo away, saying, "I will treasure it."

Gin picked up a photo. In the photo, Taira was about five or six years old, sitting alone in a corner, with Gin squatting in front of him, saying something.

"You've always liked to lean against the wall and squat in the corner since you were little. Even now, you like to sleep with your back against the wall."

Pingqing blinked. "Because it's comfortable to lean against the wall."

Gin didn't say anything, and directly picked up Taira no Kiyoshi's dark history.

"This is from someone who lost two teeth at once when they were getting new teeth."

"This is someone throwing a tantrum on the ground, with snot and tears streaming down their face."

"This is what it looks like when someone sneaks out, is caught, and is beaten so badly that they can only sleep lying down."

Pingqing looked at his naked body in the photo, then turned his head away. Did he even have any shame? The old man actually posted this picture.

Tsk, I don't know what the old man was thinking. It's enough that everyone knows about those things; the past is the past. Why bother taking so many photos when there's nothing better to do?

Although he has a lot of embarrassing history from childhood, most of which Gin has seen and doesn't care much because he's thick-skinned, he can't withstand this kind of continuous harassment with photos.

Gin continued listing the papers one by one, making Taira Kiyoshi blush with embarrassment.

He reached out to grab the photo, but Gin grabbed Heikiri's waist with one arm and clamped his legs between them, holding him firmly in place.

Pingqing kept fidgeting, trying to break free from Gin's grasp, so Gin pinched Pingqing's waist and said, "If you keep fidgeting, I won't be polite."

"Koto-chan~, please stop looking. Let's swap, I'll give your photo back to you."

"Hmph, it's too late."

Seeing that Gin was completely unmoved by reason, Taira sighed and had no choice but to let Gin enjoy those embarrassing moments.

The first time he dressed as a woman, the face paint he wore...

I desperately want to escape, but I can't seem to get away.

Seeing Hirai lean directly on his shoulder, Gin smiled and said, "What's wrong, feeling embarrassed?"

"If I saw you naked as a child, wouldn't you be embarrassed? Why am I so much younger than you? If we had grown up together, I would definitely expose all your embarrassing secrets. Heavens, why did the old man put so much of my embarrassing history in there?"

Hmm, the old man must know. Maybe I can have a good talk with him sometime and get some dirt on Gin's past?

Seeing that Hirai's eyes were constantly darting around, Gin knew that the kid was up to no good.

“I’m not like you. I didn’t have time to cause trouble when I was a kid.”

Upon hearing this, Pingqing knew that even someone as aloof as Gin wouldn't cause trouble like him. He felt even more miserable; he couldn't go on like this.

"Look, these are photos of us at the amusement park." She waved the photos in front of Pingqing.

Pingqing glanced at them, uninterested, flipped through them, finding only photos of himself and Gin, then threw the photos back into the box. "Alright, there's nothing to see here. Seal this box and never open it again."

After they talked for a while, Gin noticed that Hirai took off the ring on his hand. "What? Don't you like it?"

"No, haven't you noticed that I never carry these things with me?"

He wasn't used to carrying these things; he even left the watch with the poison needles in his system space, only taking it out when needed.

Especially since the ring bears his and Gin's names, as well as the old man's family crest. If Conan and Ai Haibara discover this during their interactions and it all comes out, it will be disastrous.

Gin glanced at Hirakiyo's ears, neck, and wrists; they were completely bare, without a single ornament.

"If you don't like wearing it, just put it away. It was a gift from the boss."

"Hmm. Qin-chan~, the mission is finished, so I won't be going to the base with you tomorrow."

After saying that, Pingqing put his arms around Gin's neck. He had been spending every day with Gin lately, and the sudden separation was a little sad.

"What happened to the two people you sent to the base's interrogation room?"

After thinking about it, I realized it was the undercover agent that Amuro Tooru exposed last time, and the person who caused trouble at the company.

The police went to their company for several days in a row. The man even tried to commit suicide, but Pingqing's people stopped him.

Fortunately, the police didn't find any clues. Although Conan sensed something was wrong, Uncle Mori was always busy with cases and didn't have time to come here to investigate.

"Just throw them into the lab as long as they tell you what they know."

"it is good."

The two embraced quietly, neither of them saying a word.

……

The next day, as soon as Hirai arrived home, Conan discovered him.

While eating, Pingqing looked at Conan across from him, who was puffing up in anger. "What's wrong? I kindly invited you to dinner, and you're glaring at me."

Ha, you little rascal, you finally couldn't hold it in anymore, could you?

"Brother Pingqing, do you know Kid?"

"Don't we all know him? He's wearing a white suit with a blue shirt underneath, a white medieval top hat, and a monocle. With such a striking look, who wouldn't recognize him?"

Wow, he's so nice to Kidd. Look how handsome he makes Kidd sound.

“You left with him last time.”

"Oh, then he took me hostage."

"So how did you get back?"

"When Kidd put me on the ground, I fought him. It was a fierce fight, with sand and stones flying everywhere. I finally won by a narrow margin and was able to escape."

"Then why did it take you so long to come back? Why didn't you call or call the police?"

"I'm lost, and my phone is dead."

Conan: ...

Although he knew Pingqing wasn't telling the truth, he still wanted to hear his excuses, but he didn't expect them to be so outrageous.

Conan coughed lightly and looked at Heikichi with a serious expression. "Brother Heikichi, I have something to say."

“Say what you want to say. I didn’t shut you up. Do you think you’ll stop talking just because I tell you not to? Besides, I’m still eating.”

Seeing Pingqing's nonchalant attitude, Conan sighed, "Pingqing-nii, can you please be serious?"

Under Conan's resentful gaze, Heikichi slowly finished his meal.

Finally, Hirai lifted Conan onto the sofa, looking at him with a smile, "Go ahead, I have time now."

"Brother Pingqing, did you already know my identity?"

"Ah, you have an identity? What identity? Are you a prince from the royal family who has fallen into commoner status? Or the illegitimate son of some big tycoon? Are you going back to inherit the family fortune now? Hey Conan, since we're such good friends, don't forget to look after me. If you just let a little bit of your finger slip by, it'll be enough for me to use for a long time."

Conan: ...

He only mentioned his identity, and asked why I would make such a connection.

He realized that to deal with Hirakiyo, he had to be direct; otherwise, he could easily fool them by playing dumb and giving them a bunch of nonsensical reasons.

"Brother Pingqing, did you already know I was Shinichi Kudo?"
