Model worker and his little darling

Conan rushed to Hirakiyo's house and frantically banged on the door.

In his imagination, Pingqing was covered in blood, not breathing, and lying pitifully on the ground.

No one answered the door, so Conan ran towards the police station. Now he had no choice but to sneak into Hirakiyo's house to see what had happened.

I took a retractable ladder from the storage room and carried it to the roof.

I followed the stairs to the roof of Pingqing's house and squeezed in from the third-floor balcony with my small body.

The house was as quiet as ever. After looking around, Pingqing wasn't there. It wasn't what he had imagined, which made him breathe a slight sigh of relief.

There were no signs of forced entry at the house, so Conan immediately called Hirai, but he didn't answer. So he started bombarding Hirai with messages.

Upon receiving the message, Hirakiyo: ...

What triggered Conan's anger?

After replying that everything was fine, Taira Kiyoshi went with Amuro Tooru to investigate other locations, since they had to keep up the act.

After learning that Hirai was alright, Conan returned to Poirot Cafe. The two people in the corner had already left, which made Conan even more certain that they were being watched.

"Conan, you're so slow."

"That's right, you're still wearing the same clothes as before."

Conan scratched his head. "Hehe, all my clothes are like this."

"Let's go, it's time to play soccer." Genta said, then picked up the ball and walked outside.

Pingqing quickly stood up, "I have something to do, so I won't play with you guys."

Seeing the imposter trying to escape, Conan seized the opportunity to attach a tracker to 'Hirakimi's' clothes, wanting to see who was really behind that facade.

Seeing 'Hirai' leave, Conan made up an excuse to go find Uncle Mori and followed him.

The three kids were left standing there bewildered; Conan had stood them up again. After some discussion, they secretly followed Conan, wanting to know what he was up to.

"Pingqing-ge, it seems that the little detective has already discovered it."

Upon seeing the message from Kaito Kuroba, Taira Kiyoshi thought of Conan's character.

[Check yourself; you have a tracking device.]

Kaito Kuroba found a small toy in the corner of his clothes and casually tossed it onto a passerby.

Good luck, little detective!

Conan followed the person ahead, his mind completely focused on them, unaware that three little tails were following him.

Conan followed the man and discovered that he had gone to a supermarket. Upon entering, he realized that this was not the same person as before, but just an ordinary office worker.

Now that Taira no Kiyoshi isn't here, he can only consult with Ai Haibara.

And so, Conan took the three little ones to Professor Agasa's house.

After hearing Conan's story, Haibara didn't know what to say. Since someone was watching Conan, it was only a matter of time before they discovered her.

……

Looking at the messages on her phone, Pingqing felt a headache coming on. She had finally had two days of peace and quiet, and now something else had happened.

"Bourbon, to the port."

"What happened?"

Ping Qing's lips curled slightly. "Someone robbed our goods."

The organization keeps a low profile, and some people actually think they are some third-rate, shady organization.

Amuro Tooru was also a little surprised; it really took courage. He was even a little curious about who had such audacity.

We arrived at the dock in a black Porsche. Turning a corner, we saw the dark muzzle of a gun.

Ping Qing raised an eyebrow. "It's me."

I glanced at Syrah beside me; it seemed Vodka was still suffering. I silently shed a tear of sympathy for Vodka.

Gin holstered his gun, his cold gaze sweeping over Amuro Tooru.

Amuro Tooru's eyes flashed, a polite smile playing on his lips. Was Gin jealous because he appeared with Mikasa?

Tsk, what a terrifying possessiveness.

Ignoring the two men's commotion, Pingqing walked into the warehouse, where a man was standing in a daze.

Seeing Xila step forward to ask questions, Ping Qing narrowed his eyes. This state...

"Wait a moment."

Pingqing stepped forward and carefully examined the man; he was under an illusion.

A spider? Or someone else?

The scalpel sliced ​​across the man's neck, and blood gushed out.

The man who had just woken up met Ping Qing's gaze. "Tell me, what did you see?" he asked gently, with a hint of seduction.

“A scorpion, a huge scorpion.” The man’s voice was very soft and trembling as he spoke.

Ping Qing smiled slightly, having unlocked a new character.

After letting go, the man collapsed to the ground. Seeing the man trembling, it was clear this scorpion was more ruthless than a spider.

Sera and Amuro Tooru searched the warehouse but found nothing.

Ping Qing chuckled lightly, "Interesting, Scorpion."

Gin snorted coldly. That organization actually dared to steal from them.

"They are retaliating."

Ping Qing's headache worsened. He'd fought with the spider a couple of days ago, and he'd crippled the snake's leg. So, he was the one who caused all of this?!

Spider, scorpion, Amuro Tooru, Conan.

It seems he went too far.

Upon hearing about retaliation, Gin glanced at Hirakiyo.

Hirai rolled his eyes; it had nothing to do with him. Pointing at the man on the ground, Amuro Tooru swiftly finished him off and threw him into the sea to feed the fish.

"Gin, I'm leaving this to you. I have other things to do." With that, Taira Kiyoshi left with Amuro Tooru. He had only come to check on things after receiving the message. Gin was there too, so he didn't need to worry about him.

He also had to keep an eye on Amuro Tooru and Conan, and he had a bad feeling about it.

Seeing that Hirai had just run away, Gin was annoyed and took Sila to clean up the mess.

As for the zoo, they will pay the price.

In the car, Amuro Tooru was thinking about what he had just heard.

Scorpions—that sounds like a code name. They're all names of alcoholic beverages, so this doesn't mean they're part of the organization. So, is there another mysterious organization in Japan? Are they competitors?

It seems that Gin and Mikasa know about this.

Hirakiyo glanced at Amuro Tooru and thought, "Tsk, so many organizations are causing trouble in Japan. Tooru must be heartbroken."

I've been feeling targeted lately, and I accidentally let Touko get in touch with the zoo again. Should I leak some information to Touko to distract him?

Before they knew it, it was dark.

After they parted ways, Hirakiyo secretly followed Amuro Tooru all the way to his apartment. Hirakiyo was a little disappointed, thinking that Tooru was going to the Public Security Bureau's hideout or some other stronghold.

After checking the interior of the house and confirming that no one had been there, Amuro Tooru relaxed a little.

Amuro Tooru's eyes darkened as he looked at Kazama Yuya's name on his phone.

Mikazuki acted as if he had forgotten about it and never mentioned having him kill Kazama Yuya again. But having known Mikazuki for so long, he was sure that the man wouldn't just give up so easily, but now he had no idea what the other man would do.

He then sent a message to Kazama Yuya, asking him to look up the code name "Scorpion".

After pondering for a while, Amuro Tooru opened the safe, which contained the intelligence that Taira no Kiyoshi had read.

Hmm? It looks like someone's moved it?

Amuro Tooru's expression turned grave as he checked the doors and windows again, finding no signs of intrusion.

Looking back at the safe, is it just an illusion?
