It can’t be true…

Akai Shuichi hesitated for a moment, but remained expressionless, trying to get what he wanted to know from Amuro Toru.

"Excuse me, Mr. Amuro?"

He paused for a moment, then suddenly smiled at Amuro Toru's half-smile.

"Conan just went out to play. After all, kids love to run outside. As for that FBI agent named Judy Stelling...if I remember correctly, she should be a friend Solana met in the United States, right? I didn't expect her to be an FBI agent. But if you want to find her, you should go to Solana. After all, she and I don't have any friendship."

As long as Toru Amuro doesn't produce sufficient evidence to prove that Edogawa Conan and Judy are in his hands, Shuichi Akai will not easily believe what he says.

After all, apart from the fact that the two of them were really in his hands, another possibility was that he had colluded with Middles to deceive him.

So he naturally wouldn't believe it easily.

However, Toru Amuro looked calm.

"Really? I think you could make a phone call before you say that."

I just don't know if you can still remain so calm when the time comes.

Amuro Toru sneered.

And after meeting his leisurely gaze, 'Okiya Subaru's' brows twitched slightly, not obviously, but it was clearly seen by Amuro Toru.

Seeing this, the smile on his face deepened and he looked more relaxed.

"In that case, let's call and see."

The sudden sound made the two people who were confronting each other startled.

Amuro Toru frowned and looked over.

The owner of the villa, Yusaku Kodo, slowly walked out from the shadows. After meeting their eyes, he smiled elegantly.

"I'm also curious about what's going on over there with Conan."

He gave a reason that no one could refuse.

In particular, Shuichi Akai himself was also very worried about the situation of Conan Edogawa and Judy, but because of Amuro Toru's purpose, he kept holding back and did not call.

Now that Kudo Yusaku had given him a way out, Akai Shuichi naturally nodded quickly and followed his words to call Edogawa Conan.

"Ring, ring, ring—"

"Ring, ring, ring—"

The phone kept ringing, but no one answered.

Akai Hide's eyes flashed slightly. After Edogawa Conan's call was automatically hung up, he didn't show it on his face, but his fingers were moving quickly, and without anyone noticing, he clicked on Judy's contact information.

"Sorry, the user you dialed is powered off."

Now, Akai Shuichi's brows were completely furrowed.

One is turned off, and the other has no one answering...

He subconsciously glanced at Toru Amuro and saw that he was still looking at him with that half-smile in his eyes, as if to say, 'You are doomed'. Akai Shuichi's face hidden under the disguise mask finally showed a slight change.

He and Kudo Yusaku looked at each other, and needless to say, he saw seriousness in his eyes.

This discovery made him more certain of his guess, but now was not the time to talk about that.

Akai Shuichi withdrew his gaze and turned to look at Amuro Toru again.

"Bourbon..."

He raised his hand, and his slender fingers slowly reached towards his neck.

"Click—"

A subtle sound reached his ears, and Akai Shuichi whispered to Amuro Toru in his own voice:

"It's been a few years since we last met, and your methods have become even more sophisticated. Did Middles tell you that?"

As soon as he said this, although the disguise on his face was still there, he had actually acknowledged his identity.

Toru Amuro also straightened his back from the sofa.

"You are indeed Akai Shuichi."

He chuckled softly, and the aura around him pressed directly on Akai Shuichi.

Seeing this, Kudo Yusaku looked around and interrupted the confrontation between the two.

"You didn't come here today just to confirm his identity, did you?" He chuckled, "Let me guess..."

There was still a smile on Kudo Yusaku's face, and there was a bit of scrutiny in his eyes when he looked at Amuro Toru. That gaze was as real as substance, causing the curve of Amuro Toru's lips to freeze, and he vaguely guessed something in his heart.

really.

After a pause, Kudo Yusaku suddenly called out:

"Mr. Public Security is actually looking for cooperation, right?"

He used the question in this sentence, but no matter how Amuro Toru looked at it, he felt that he had already determined his identity and purpose, and that he was saying this simply to save his face.

Amuro Toru narrowed his eyes slightly.

This was his first time dealing with Kudo Yusaku. In the past, he had only heard others talk about how powerful his reasoning was, but he had never actually seen it. Now he could truly see his abilities.

"As expected of Mr. Kudo."

He did not deny that he was called 'Mr. Public Security'.

After all, the reason he came here today was to use the FBI and Edogawa Conan to force Akai Shuichi to obey him.

So even though his identity was exposed, Amuro Toru was not nervous at all. He just smiled faintly and said:

"No wonder Xiao Kui thinks highly of you. You are truly extraordinary."

He was testing how close the relationship between Hoshino Aoi and the Kudo family was.

And Kudo Yusaku obviously understood his temptation.

He smiled faintly and said without any concern:

"You're too kind. Actually, the reason I was able to guess your identity has a lot to do with Xingye. She has never hidden the fact that she has a good relationship with you."

Kudo Yusaku did not call Hoshino Aoi as usual, but directly called her by her last name.

When Toru Amuro heard this, he realized that Hoshino Aoi and Kudo Yusaku must have reached some kind of cooperation, otherwise Kudo Yusaku would not know her real name.

Since the two of them have a trustworthy partnership, it seems only natural for him to know his true identity.

Thinking of this, Toru Amuro curved his eyebrows and didn't say anything to Kudo Yusaku. Instead, he turned his gaze to Akai Shuichi again.

"You should be sure of this by now, right? I have your people in my hands, so you should know what to do next, right?"

Either he kills him and gives his body to Gin to gain the organization's trust, or he cooperates with him and destroys the organization together...

Toru Amuro thinks Shuichi Akai should be able to make the right choice.

He waited for Shuichi Akai to bend down and, along with the FBI behind him, request an alliance with them.
