Model worker and his little darling

Back at the safe house, upon seeing Gin, Taira Kiyoshi immediately pounced on him.

"Koto-chan~, I'm so tired after running around all day."

Seeing that Hirai looked listless, Gin reached out and rubbed the head that was resting on his shoulder.

"Sleepy?"

Heiji looked up at Gin with pleading eyes, "I'm hungry."

Gin smiled and kissed the cheek of the person in his arms. "What do you want to eat?"

"It will be all right."

"Buzz~"

Pingqing's face fell; it was late at night, how annoying.

As soon as he took out his phone, he saw the four large characters "Inspector Megure" on the screen. Gin's gaze sharpened, and he frowned.

"Brother Pingqing, do you have some time now?"

Hearing Inspector Megure's unusually serious tone, Hirai remained calm and asked, "Officer, what can I do for you?"

"Here's the thing, Mr. Tsuchimon has been murdered. We found out that you and Conan were at Beika Park this morning when he was being interviewed there. I'd like to ask you to come to the Metropolitan Police Department to assist with the investigation."

"Okay, I'll be there right away."

After hanging up the phone, Pingqing sighed. What a mess this day is all about.

He had done so many things in secret before without being discovered, but he got caught when he went on an operation with Conan.

unlucky!

He reached out and wrapped his arms around Gin's waist, then pressed his lips to his.

Sensing that Hirai was about to leave, Gin pulled him into his arms and deepened the kiss.

For a long time, their lips parted.

Touching Gin's face, Pingqing said with a smile, "Extend my life, and wait for me to come back."

After stepping outside, Pingqing's face instantly turned cold.

……

Metropolitan Police Department.

Seeing the reporters gathered at the door, Ping Qing smiled. It was the same scene again.

Upon seeing Hirakiyo, Inspector Megure waved and said, "Hirakiyo, you've finally arrived."

"Officer, is there anything I can do for you?"

Looking at the young man who had helped him so much, Inspector Megure felt a mix of emotions. Logically speaking, Hirakiyo shouldn't have been at Beika Park.

After leaving Beika Park, Tsuchimon Kanghui passed by the Toriyashi Bridge, where a gang fight broke out, and he was brutally murdered.

Ping Qing's figure was present in the photos, but he was unwilling to believe that Ping Qing had done all of this.

"Brother Taira, you used a gun in Beika Park, didn't you?"

Ping Qing blinked. He was certain that only Mizunashi Rena witnessed him making the move. But Mizunashi Rena was still unconscious in the hospital, yet the police now knew. Who was behind this?

"Officer, I do have a gun."

Then he took out his FBI badge and showed it to Inspector Megure. "Officer, I hope you can keep this a secret for me."

Inspector Megure was taken aback. He hadn't expected that his younger brother, who had been helping him solve cases, was actually an FBI agent. No wonder he was so outstanding in every way at such a young age.

After confirming that Hirai had no connection with the yakuza, Inspector Megure relaxed and a smile appeared on his face.

“Brother Pingqing, I need to report this to Manager Matsumoto, but don’t worry, we won’t reveal your identity.”

He knew that when the FBI came to Japan, they usually had secret missions, and that was not his business.

Pingqing nodded, guessing that the information would have been leaked almost entirely before he even left the Metropolitan Police Department. However, having an FBI affiliation was still quite convenient for him.

"Brother Pingqing, what's going on today?"

“We received a tip that someone was going to harm Mr. Tsuchimon, so we rushed to Beika Park. The situation was urgent, so I set off the sprinklers. I also had people there hold umbrellas to hinder their actions.”

"Why did Conan come with you?"

Pingqing sighed helplessly, "Officer, you know Conan's personality. He sneaked into my car without me noticing. The situation was quite urgent, so I had no choice but to take him with me."

Inspector Megure agreed with this assessment; Conan was indeed daring, even daring to secretly follow their police helicopter.

"Brother Pingqing, you should be more careful in the future."

Ping Qing smiled. It seemed that his persona was well-established. Inspector Megure's attitude represented the attitude of the Metropolitan Police Department to some extent.

"Well, I see."

"What about the back?"

"After leaving Beika Park, I followed Mr. Tsuchimon's car. We had a car accident near Toriyashi Bridge, so I took Conan back to the detective agency first. By the time I got back, Mr. Tsuchimon had already been murdered. Officer, do you have any leads?"

Inspector Megure shook his head. "The killer used a long-range sniper shot. Mr. Tsuchimon's driver and bodyguard were both killed. We are investigating Mr. Tsuchimon's rivals, and this time it also involves..."

Hirakiyo's eyes flickered; there was also the Japanese Public Security Bureau.

After chatting for a while, Inspector Megure patted Heikiyo on the shoulder. "Heikiyo, you can go back now. We'll contact you again if we need anything."

After leaving the Metropolitan Police Department, Hirai returned to the detective agency and found Conan, who was still awake.

"Brother Pingqing, what's wrong?"

Ping Qing rubbed his temples, looking utterly exhausted.

"The organization now believes the bugging device is related to the FBI. Uncle is safe now, and I'm going to send someone to protect you."

Conan pondered for a moment, "No, we've finally managed to convince them that Uncle has nothing to do with the FBI. If we just randomly assign people to protect him, they'll start to think there's something wrong with Uncle, which would make things even more dangerous."

Pingqing nodded. "You're right. We need to be more careful in the future, because someone is watching me."

Conan was startled. "What's going on?"

“I just came back from the Metropolitan Police Department. Because I was seen using a gun in Beika Park, Inspector Megure already knows my identity. I've already told you, you sneaked into my car, and then I brought you back because of the car accident. You don't know anything. If anything happens, just pin it all on me.”

Conan paused for a moment, lowered his head, and said in a muffled voice, "I understand."

Seeing Conan's reaction, Hirai Kiyoshi curled the corners of his mouth.

"Alright, be careful lately. Let me know if anything happens. I'm leaving now."

Watching Hirai leave, Conan felt incredibly conflicted. He had already sensed something was off about Hirai; at times, Hirai's appearances always seemed particularly coincidental.

But Pingqing kept helping him and standing in front of him, pointing out things he had never thought of before.

Moreover, ever since he went to America, even Haibara has become strange, always staying in the basement doing research. When Taira and Kiyoshi are around, both of them give him a very strange feeling.

Although Taira no Kiyoshi and Ai Haibara acted very calmly about the brother and sister who appeared last time, he had a strange feeling that they knew each other.

He seems to live in a strange world.

Everything seems reasonable, yet it is also unreasonable.

He no longer knows what is real and what is fake.
