Model worker and his little darling

Seeing Conan remain silent, Professor Agasa sighed and didn't ask any more questions.

These two children are not ordinary people; they have borne too much on their small shoulders. He can't do much to help them when something happens, so he can only do his best to protect them.

After dealing with things here, Pingqing rubbed his temples.

"Forcing them to accept the existence of magic today, they're probably still confused."

Gin's voice was icy, "If they can't even accept something like this, how will they complete future missions? Only by experiencing magic firsthand can they quickly accept its existence."

The friction between them and the zoo is escalating, and they're bound to clash sooner or later; it will be too late to talk about this then.

Ping Qing hummed in agreement, guessing that Touko was probably the most affected. Not only did she have to accept magic, but she also had to accept the zoo's misdeeds in Japan.

Entering the laboratory, I saw Akemi Miyano staring tearfully at Ai Haibara on the bed.

"The check-up has been completed, and the person is fine."

Hearing his father's words, Pingqing nodded, "Okay, Baileys will be here in a bit, I'll take her back tomorrow."

After all, Haibara was affected by magic, and he didn't want to have a time bomb next to him.

"Okay, you can arrange it."

Watching Hirai and Gin leave, Ito Shuji breathed a sigh of relief.

Upon arriving at the base again, the two saw the encirclement in the distance and heard the drawn-out sounds of commands.

"The Self-Defense Forces have all arrived."

Heiji spotted Kazami Yuya in the crowd and raised an eyebrow slightly.

"The police have arrived too. It seems Bourbon sent them a message. I suppose this haul will satisfy them."

It's a pity I didn't see my old acquaintance, Inspector Megure.

Given his rank, he shouldn't be able to participate in the investigation of this incident.

"Let's go see what other surprises are inside."

Just as he was about to leave, Pingqing spotted the FBI's presence. "Tsk, all sorts of monsters are showing up."

Given the FBI's intelligence system, they must have known about the zoo's existence.

Upon entering the base, Ping Qing frowned after searching for a while.

"The things here have been moved."

Gin gave a faint "hmm," and the rest of the things were not very important.

After casually placing a few things down, Ping Qing smiled and said, "It's about time. We should let those people outside in."

At this moment, Sila and the others were already suffering terribly from the torment of the illusion.

Baileys alone couldn't withstand the attack of two opponents, not to mention there was a magician lurking in the shadows launching a sneak attack.

Thinking of Hirai and Gin who had left early, the group cursed the two bastards in their hearts.

Especially Baileys, it made me so angry I wanted to gnash my teeth.

At the time, Yu Lu told her that they were just going out for a trip and that they could also let Xila and the others accept the existence of magic.

As a result, she ran away, leaving the two powerful magicians to face the situation alone.

"boom!"

An explosion rang out, and when Sila and the others opened their eyes again, they saw Hira and Gin waiting outside. They immediately breathed a sigh of relief; it seemed that this painful ordeal was finally over.

Chianti was about to swear when Cohen stopped her.

Baileys didn't have that concern and went straight for Pingqing.

"Royal Deer!"

Looking at the irritable Bailey, Pingqing's lips twitched slightly. Her character had collapsed. She was clearly a sweet and cute girl.

"Go to the research institute first."

Baileys stared at Pingqing, "Again?"

"Once this is over, you can do whatever you want."

Upon hearing this, Baileys stamped her foot, gave a soft snort, and turned to leave.

Because of another explosion, the site has become a ruin. People who don't know the situation might think that a war has taken place here. The Self-Defense Forces and Public Security have surrounded the area again and again.

Under the incompetent command of their own superiors, the Self-Defense Forces began to advance.

But everyone was afraid of another explosion, so the group's progress was extremely slow.

Looking at the mess below, Amuro Tooru turned his head away. It was too awful to bear.

This is the force that holds this country together; now it seems like a joke.

In just a few hours, what he saw was beyond his comprehension.

This is also a large transnational criminal organization that has been operating in Japan. However, until today, they had received no information whatsoever.

Most importantly, magic still exists in this world!!

The organization also has magicians!

To his surprise, Yu Lu was also a magician, and he seemed quite powerful at it.

The only saving grace is that this organization called the Zoo seems to be opposed to the Black Organization, which is at least some good news.

He then glanced at Ping Qing, who was deep in thought, and began to consider the purpose of involving them in this operation.

My mind raced, and suddenly a possibility came to mind.

The purpose of this operation is to make them aware of the Zoo organization and the existence of magic!

"Go back to base!"

The group nodded and left quietly.

Pingqing looked down at the ruins, his gaze gradually deepening.

Their actions in transferring the data prove that the zoo anticipated that they might come to this base after the operation.

So, was Haibara brought here on purpose? Was she just bait?

That doesn't seem quite right either. They captured Haibara and then attacked Conan, which means they already know about APTX-4869 and the two's true identities.

Would they, who aim for immortality, so easily give up on Haibara and Conan? Does it mean they've already decided that APTX-4869 can't achieve their goal?

If that's not the case, then what is their real goal?

After pondering for a while, Pingqing suddenly remembered what Spider had said, clenched his fist, and wondered if the target this time was actually him? But the zoo hadn't gotten anything from him.

Sensing the change in Taira, Gin grasped Taira's hand. "What's wrong?"

"I'm wondering what their real purpose is?"

Gin frowned slightly. "What did you discover?"

Pingqing gently shook his head, his gaze drifting towards the two people who had suddenly appeared.

"Brother Pingqing".

Kaito Kuroba waved excitedly at Hirai, but his voice immediately quieted down when he saw the imposing Gin beside Hirai.

Ping Qing asked helplessly, "Why are you all here?"

"Come check on the situation. We almost got caught by their people again."

He seems to have had a string of bad luck all day: a plane crash, being chased by Spider, and just when he thought he was safe, a magician appeared and started yelling at him to kill him.

Tired of heart!

Hearing this, Pingqing stared at Kuroba Kaito for a long while before letting out a soft sigh.

"Douzi, the fact that you're still alive and kicking means they held back."

Perhaps they had other ideas, after all, the decoy Kaito Kid is still very useful.

Previously, Spiders were the only ones targeting Kaito Kuroba, but tonight the zoo suddenly deployed five or six magicians, and this is only within Japan.

Moreover, Japan has not been their primary area of ​​activity in recent years.

If Spider had gone all out, or teamed up with Squirrel, even with the protagonist's halo, Douzi wouldn't have lived such a comfortable life.

She even flirted with Conan and teased Suzuki Jirokichi.

Kaito Kuroba, feeling uneasy under Pingqing's gaze, was stunned. Did this mean that the zoo had held back when they attacked him?

Spider attacked so ruthlessly, did he seem to be holding back?

Seeing that Hirai had no intention of continuing, Kuroba Kaito looked down at the ruins. Although he hadn't been there personally, he could already sense the danger lurking within.

Right now, he can barely handle one member of the zoo. Once they use illusions and weapons, he can say goodbye to this world.

Thinking of this, Kaito Kuroba let out a long breath. At this stage, the most important thing is to improve his strength.

If things remain the same, he will never find his father's whereabouts.

Suddenly, a violent explosion was heard.

Pingqing quickly regained his balance and grabbed Kuroba Kaito, who was about to fly away.

Chaos ensued below, and the Self-Defense Forces suffered heavy losses.

"Royal Deer, see you next time!"

Upon hearing Spider's familiar yet annoying voice, Ping Qing revealed a mocking smile.

They were just stray dogs that fled the base in disarray.

Fortunately, he took Touko in for a walk beforehand; otherwise, with those useless Self-Defense Forces, not only would they have suffered heavy losses, but they wouldn't have found anything at all.

After things quieted down, Hirakiyoshi looked at Koizumi Akako and asked, "Miss Akako, did you find anything?"

Koizumi Akako raised her chin slightly. "I just came over out of curiosity."

Hirai shrugged and walked over to Koizumi Akako. "A chaotic world has betrayed the light, and darkness comes from the stars. What does that mean?"

He originally thought this sentence referred to his position within the organization, his birthplace of darkness, and his upbringing in darkness.

A chaotic underground world, devoid of light.

But after listening to Spider's words, he felt that he had misunderstood.

Koizumi Akako was somewhat surprised, her beautiful eyes scrutinizing Hirakiyo.

"Ok?"

"curious."

Koizumi Akako looked up at the night sky and said, "Actually, I'm not quite sure either. Only you know the true meaning."

Darkness prevailed, order collapsed, and ultimately, desolation ensued!

The chaotic world has betrayed the light, and darkness has come from the stars!

Two sentences kept flashing through Ping Qing's mind, his thoughts racing.

In the end, it all turned into a soft sigh.

Koizumi Akako stared at Hirakiyo. "I'm very curious, why did you suddenly become able to use magic?"

After all, when they first met, although Taira no Kiyoshi knew about magic, he didn't even know the different schools of magic in Japan, let alone how to use magic.

Ping Qing pursed her lips, her expression and tone strange. "If I said that I just took a nap and suddenly I knew everything, would you believe me?"

Koizumi Akako: ...

That's a rather perfunctory statement.

After setting up an illusion space around himself, he raised his hand and took out a magic ball.

Ping Qing raised an eyebrow, "Lucifer?"

This thing looks pretty fun.

Unable to hear the two speaking, Gin frowned slightly as he looked at Kaito Kuroba, who was silently clenching his fists beside him. As Taira no Kiyoshi's subordinate, Kaito's strength was far too weak. Every time something happened, Taira no Kiyoshi had to handle it.

Despite continuous training, my skills have improved very slowly.

Sensing Gin's displeased gaze, Kaito Kuroba shivered. He must not have offended him.

Then he remembered that Pingqing had said this was his lover. Could it be that he was jealous because he saw how close Pingqing and he were?

After a long while, Hiraiyoshi, who had come to his senses, noticed the strange atmosphere between Gin and Kaito Kuroba and asked with some confusion, "What's wrong with you two?"

Kaito Kuroba quickly shook his head.

Gin stepped forward and took Hirai's hand, their fingers intertwined, domineeringly asserting his dominance.

"Finished?"

Pingqing gave a soft "hmm," waved to the two of them, and disappeared on the spot with Gin.

Back in the safe house, Pingqing lay on top of Gin, his fingers restlessly poking at Gin's face.

Gin helplessly held down Hirai's mischievous hand. "What's wrong?"

After kissing Gin on the corner of his mouth, Heikichi mumbled that he was sleepy.

He never expected so many bizarre things to happen in just one day.

He was running around so much that he was almost exhausted.

Upon hearing this, Gin gently patted Heikiyo's back, watching Heikiyo gradually fall asleep in his arms.

……

The next day.

Having not slept well, Pingqing looked at the various messages on her phone, filled with resentment.

"It's so annoying every day."

He wrapped his arms around Gin's neck and kissed him fiercely.

A hint of a smile flashed in Gin's eyes as he gently soothed the irritable child in his arms.

After a long while, the color of their lips became more vibrant.

After spending some more time cuddling with Gin, Hirai reluctantly left the house, since he had other things to do.

Gin also went to the base; there are still many follow-up matters that he needs to handle.

Upon arriving at a cozy family-style restaurant, Pingqing saw a gentle-looking woman dining with two little girls.

Eiko Ishikawa was her father's assistant, specifically responsible for taking care of Akemi Miyano.

Wow, today's a grand reunion of sisters!

Upon seeing Hiraiyoshi appear, Haibara and Miyano Akemi's smiles faded considerably, indicating that their time together was running out.

Seeing this, Pingqing's already bad mood turned even darker. He wasn't Conan, the Grim Reaper, who caused deaths wherever he went.

"I didn't say I was going to separate you now, why are you making it sound like a life-or-death separation?"

Although she could tell that Hirakiyo was in a bad mood, Haibara still looked at him and said earnestly, "Thank you!"

If Pingqing hadn't rescued her, she would never have seen her sister again.

Now, her biggest wish has come true, and she has finally met her sister.

Ping Qing waved his hand dismissively. He always paid close attention to talent, especially talent like Haibara who was also a guinea pig. Besides, now the zoo was involved.

What happened yesterday?

Haibara lowered her head and thought for a moment, "After I got off the plane, I was walking at the very back when suddenly everything went black. When I woke up again, I saw that woman, who asked me to tell her everything about that drug."

As she spoke, Haibara looked up at Hirai, "And there's news about you and Kudo. I didn't tell you before I fainted, and then you came. I don't know what happened during that time."

To be honest, Haibara still felt that this night was too dreamy.

Pingqing nodded; it seemed that some of his guesses were correct.

Hearing that her younger sister had gone through such a dangerous ordeal alone, Akemi Miyano's eyes filled with tears, and she felt deeply guilty.

She kept running away, never daring to ask about everything Shiho had gone through during their separation.

They were prepared to die, but fate played a cruel joke on them, and both sisters survived. They survived as children, as experimental subjects of the organization.

She couldn't imagine how Shiho would survive if she died.

Seeing Akemi Miyano's red eyes, Ai Haibara felt heartbroken.

Compared to her sister, her life is much better.
