Model worker and his little darling

Goodness, she hasn't paid rent for 30 years! How much money must that be? If Ai Haibara revealed her identity and started collecting rent, she could instantly become a little rich woman.

Hirakiyo interrupted their conversation, looking at President Izushima with an embarrassed expression, "Excuse me, where is your restroom?"

Following the direction pointed out by President Izushima, Hirakiyo walked into the restroom.

His smile vanished as he found the cassette tape under the float in the toilet tank.

Ping Qing frowned. Given Miyano Akemi's skill in hiding things, how could the organization not have found her? Who was the idiot who carried out the mission back then?

After carefully putting away the tape, he walked out leisurely.

"Actually, Atsushi Miyano came once when the president wasn't here. He brought a very beautiful foreign wife and a cute little girl who looked about four or five years old. I think he must have something important to tell the president, because he stayed here for one night."

At this point, a Mediterranean-looking man named Tetsuo Imai chimed in, "That girl is quite the prankster. She hid our tools and kept us on the edge of our seats. His wife is also quite unusual. She didn't say a word after she arrived. I thought it was because of the language barrier, but she and her daughter were communicating in Mandarin."

"That man kept looking out. Now that I think about it, there seems to have been a car parked in front of the company all the time, covered with black tint. It's been almost twenty years."

Seeing that Professor Agasa and his group kept asking about Atsushi Miyano, President Izushima asked curiously, "What is your relationship with Miyano?"

"This...this is because of us..."

"Actually, it's because he's so old that he's getting married, so I wanted to invite him to the wedding banquet, but I didn't know where he lived, so I came to ask."

After Conan said that, Professor Agasa could only awkwardly scratch his head.

Pingqing turned his head away, suppressing a laugh. "To kill someone is to destroy their spirit."

He remembered that the professor's partner was a super beautiful and elegant woman, but he didn't know how long he would have to wait to meet her.

Seeing that they had other things to do, the group prepared to take their leave.

Just then, Zaitsu Ukihiko suddenly blurted out, "But Akemi did come here once before." Seeing the president's confused look, he added, "She's the pretty girl who came to borrow the restroom."

President Izushima suddenly realized, "She said something very strange, that it was too embarrassing to borrow the toilet, and that we shouldn't tell anyone. I don't know who she was trying to hide it from."

Conan and Ai Haibara exchanged a glance, then rushed straight to the toilet.

After Zaitsu Ukihiko came out, he saw the two of them walk in together and exclaimed in surprise, "They're going in together!"

Unfortunately, they were quickly kicked out by the president of the company, Izushima, who was suffering from a stomachache, and the two of them came up empty-handed.

"Uncle, has anything strange happened here since that lady came?"

Zaitsu Ukihiko sipped his cola and thought for a moment, "Since then, the company has been burgled twice."

President Izushima came out of the restroom, picked up a hamburger from the table, and started eating it.

"But the thief didn't steal anything. Speaking of which, after that girl came, there was a strange phenomenon, ahhh..."

The president of the company dropped the hamburger in his hand, twisted his body a few times while clutching his neck, and then collapsed to the ground with a thud.

Wow, this burger is so delicious!

Inspector Megure arrived quickly.

Searching through the crowd but not finding his old acquaintance, Mori, he turned to look at Hirakiyo with a complicated expression.

"Brother Mori is a plague god, and now I think Brother Taira no Kiyoshi, you're about to be the same."

"Yeah, you get involved in cases way too easily."

"Hehehe... Officer, we haven't seen each other for several days."

Inspector Megure said weakly, "Didn't you solve a murder case at the Toto Department Store yesterday?"

Ping Qing opened his mouth, but said nothing. He glanced sideways at Conan, who was examining the corpse, and realized that Conan's height was perfect; as long as he didn't make a sound, very few people could spot him.

Even when Conan is present, Inspector Megure's gaze is always fixed on him and Uncle Mori.

However, all the police officers who arrived had dark circles under their eyes, so they must have had a tough time.

That's terrible. Not only do I have to be tormented by my boss, but I also have to deal with everyday murder cases in Tokyo.

After much investigation, Officer Takagi delivered an unbelievable result: "No toxic substances were found in the toilet, the hallway, or the office desk—anywhere the victim touched."

Upon hearing this, Professor Agasa looked at Conan, "Shinichi, this case wouldn't be..."

"They eliminated their target without leaving any evidence, appearing and disappearing as if shrouded in mystery. That certainly sounds like their method, doesn't it?"

Seeing Haibara staring at him, what could Taira no Kiyoshi do but nod silently?

Looking back on the missions he'd carried out, he'd mostly kept a low profile by using poison needles, but he'd also been high-profile, even making headlines, yet nobody knew he was behind them. The killer couldn't be found, and the cases were eventually shelved.

"After my sister came here, it must have been them who broke in."

“Yes, they also suspected that your sister might have hidden something here, which is why they came to scout ahead. I just found traces of a bugging device in the restroom. After listening to the staff's conversation, they concluded that nothing was hidden here, and they retrieved the bugging device on their second visit.”

"I sensed that their target was me. In a moment when my consciousness was very hazy, I suddenly felt a look of disdain towards me."

Ping Qing's eyes flickered; he truly lived up to his reputation as an alcohol detector.

Professor Agasa said he found Dr. Araide, but why didn't his sister take the opportunity to kill Ai Haibara?

Conan was shocked. "Huh? Is that so? Knowing there was danger here, why did you still come here?"

Haibara smiled. "Because I wanted to know if my parents were really the kind of people the organization rumored to be. Putting aside my mad scientist father, my mother is indeed gloomy and taciturn. Just by looking at her appearance, no one could possibly guess what she was thinking."

"The people in the organization call my mother 'Hell Angel,' meaning an angel who has fallen to hell. Now that I've got the answer I wanted, I should leave here as soon as possible. But, saying I'm leaving, I might not have anywhere to run to at all."

Hell Angel?

Ping Qing's lips curled into a mocking smile.

Elena Miyano? An angel? An angel who fell to hell?

Huh~

Atsushi Miyano is a true mad scientist, dedicated to research results regardless of the consequences.

Elena Miyano met and married Atsushi Miyano while studying in Japan. 25 years ago, after Hakuba Pharmaceutical went bankrupt, the two opened a hospital.
