Chapter 64 What Are You Willing to Pay for It

He calmed himself down a bit, trying not to look too panicked, and said softly, "I understand. I will take good care of myself."

The word "look after" obviously has a double meaning. It not only responds to Feng Jiye's obvious concern, but also secretly indicates that he will never spread what happened last night.

Feng Ji Ye Jian didn't say anything, but just looked at him with a smile. Accompanied by Mitsuki Kotori, a chatterbox who knew nothing, the two walked towards the inside of the bank.

Miwa Mikai took a deep breath. Besides the fact that Gin Changzhi had ordered him to come back yesterday, there was another reason for him to come back.

He needed to get an invitation letter from this "senior". For people outside the organization to join, the only way was to be recommended for employment, except for those specifically instructed above. Ordinary members do not have the quota for recommendation unless you have many connections. Only code members have this right naturally, which is also a manifestation of their identity and status.

Miwa Mikai calmed down. He has already begun to realize the terror and enormity of this organization. Dealing with the gang entrenched in his home is like dealing with a small insect. He has only seen a small part of the deep sea, but one day...

He suppressed his emotions, glanced at the back of the person in front of him, and stopped thinking about it.

Conan stayed at the doctor's house today. The other members of the Junior Detective League were on a short parent-child trip with their parents during this holiday. Haibara was still there, typing some symbols and numbers that he couldn't understand.

His face was solemn, and he thought for a long time. Finally, he dialed a number.

The communicator beeped rhythmically. After three rings, the call was answered.

He didn't speak; he didn't talk. It was as if they were competing to see who would lose patience first. Finally, Conan couldn't help but say, "I went to see Shinji Inada, he is doing well now."

The other party was stunned for a moment, then said: "It's you, little detective."

As long as he still remembers me, Conan felt relieved. He said, "But he still refuses to reveal any information about you. He claims that he planned the revenge drama from the beginning to the end, and no outsiders participated."

"Isn't this the truth?" The man on the other side said nonchalantly, "You need evidence to accuse someone, little detective. Otherwise, you're destroying someone's reputation."

Conan's eyes were burning: "But you didn't join this case for no reason. Although your reputation in the so-called other world is to participate in such chaotic cases, this case is different for you, right?"

"Hmm? What do you want to say?" The person on the other side seemed interested.

"The female editor of the publishing house who was killed by Nagakawa Usuke, Shimizu Aoi," Conan's voice lowered: "She is your mother, right?"

Huibara Ai, who was typing, stopped and looked over here. The other side fell into deathly silence.

After a while, he heard the other party laugh briefly: "Who knows, maybe?"

"Then what do you want to do?" The other party asked again: "Use her to find out my identity? No way." Conan seemed to see him twiddling his fingers leisurely: "The procedures back then were very secretive, and you can't find out by checking."

Conan quickly said, "I didn't intend to check these."

"So, you just want the information about that organization?" The person on the other side chuckled and suddenly said with certainty.

Conan gritted his teeth: "What do you know?"

"Know what? No, I know nothing," the other person said calmly, "Just like I don't know that this communication line is controlled by the police. Little detective, it seems that you are quite capable and can even be connected with this kind of government agency."

Conan was stunned for a moment, and he realized that he got the information from someone on the Internet. His mind was full of thoughts, but he quickly brushed them aside. He did not expose the truth and said, "Yes, you should also know that it is natural for the government to pay attention to an organization like that that involves so many black interests."

"Not only that, there's also the FBI," the other party didn't mind revealing a little more. He said, "Compared to your aimless search, they have more clues, and they have deployed a lot of claws. If you can't hold on any longer, it may not be impossible to ask them for help."

Conan was stunned and he subconsciously looked at Haibara Ai. The short-haired little girl nodded at him and said silently: "There are indeed many spies in the organization."

Conan was a little excited. After searching for so long without any clue, he finally knew that he was not alone. The Black Organization was huge, but it still had to hide in the sun. He continued: "What about you? You also paid a lot to get this information, right?"

Yes, you have to wear it once. On the other side, Wang Chuan She took a sip of juice. He was now wearing a white suit and sitting casually on a sofa. After changing back to his identity as a rich young man, he prefers brighter clothes, perhaps to hide his darkness even deeper. "Not bad," he smiled faintly, "So, what are you going to pay for it?"

"You..." Conan was speechless. He seemed to have a feeling that he was doing a deal with a profiteer.

He had mixed feelings. He didn't expect that someone would actually take out the information about that organization for trading, and moreover, it was someone from such a dark world where it was difficult to distinguish between good and evil. He calmed himself down: "What do you have?"

Wang Chuanshe laughed, biting his tone and speaking in a cheerful and light voice: "It depends on what you can give. For some things, maybe you should talk to the people behind you. You know, their value is probably beyond the reach of a small detective like you."

"Did he really say that?" The camera turned and Conan heard his father's voice on his cell phone.

"Well," Conan said with some trepidation, "I think he didn't lie."

"Don't worry," Kudo Yusaku first comforted: "If it's money, I can still give you some. But he probably wants more than that."

"What does he want?" Conan asked.

"You shouldn't be the only one to pay for this." Kudo Yusaku shook his head: "Didn't he remind you? Where did you get your contact information from?"

"Japanese Public Security." Conan's eyes gradually became sharper. He knew that he was being used as a pawn this time.

"Well," said Kudo Yusaku, "According to what you said, this person has been very famous in the dark world recently, and he is a person nominated for a bounty by that organization. So, people who have been paying attention to the organization will naturally notice him. Try to collect information about him, and perhaps even have the intention of recruiting him. He has great abilities, and he was able to cause such a big commotion while being hunted by that organization. Even for security purposes, they will not let him do whatever he wants."

Conan's expression was complicated: "I understand. I just didn't expect that we would really have to make a deal with such a person..."

"Shinichi," his father said seriously, "I know what you are thinking. I didn't expect that you would really make that call. You used to think that there was only black and white in the world, but after that case, you have grown up. So, I will tell you this today. Shinichi, 'Justice is not something that can be taken for granted. Don't think that it is natural just because you are used to it.'"

"'In the beginning, we were all beasts, tearing apart those around us. What followed was a long period of chaos, with ethics and morality silent. Only at the very end did justice shine a little.' 'Justice is actually weak, and is nurtured by people, so we must do whatever it takes to make it strong.'" Kudo Yusaku said, "We don't need to be so extreme, but sometimes, we have to learn to adapt. That person, the 'Puppet Master', is a person with an ambiguous stance and his own principles. It's okay to make a deal with him in order to obtain information, because it is very likely to save many people who are working for peace in secret."

"What you need to do is to always be alert to his 'danger'." Kudo Yusaku said: "Don't let yourself be bewitched by his light and lose your position."

Conan listened quietly until Kudo Yusaku stopped, then he smiled and said, "I know, Dad."

Kudo Yusaku continued to instruct Conan for a long time before he put the phone down. As he turned around, he was startled by a figure approaching.

"Ah, Dad~" Huibara Ai imitated deliberately.

"Haibara!" he shouted angrily.

"What a good father you are. He can even help with something like this." Huiyuan Ai was very calm: "Besides, what you said makes sense."

"You also think you can make a deal with that guy." Conan thought.

Haibara Ai put her hands behind her back and said, "I only know that if the organization wants to kill someone, there is no one it cannot kill. That person, the 'Puppet Master', escaped from Gin. Moreover, the organization may have suffered a loss at his hands."

"What?" Conan was surprised.

Huihara Ai brought the computer over. On the screen was a map with some lines outlined on it. "Do you know about the previous Tokyo explosion?"

Conan said coldly: "It's been reported in the newspaper."

"I suspect," Huihara Ai used her pen as a pointer, "here, here, here, and here are actually the organization's hidden bases."

Conan opened his eyes wide: "You mean..."

"Yes," Huihara Ai said with a hint of excitement in her cold expression, "He blew up most of the organization's branches in Tokyo!" Her eyes shone with light, "No matter how he did it, he did it. This guy is a genius!"

Conan looked at her excited expression and twitched his eyes: "Habara, you..."

Huiyuan Ai placed her hands on his shoulders, she looked him straight in the eyes and said: "You can dislike his style, or you can use detective techniques to destroy his plans when he gets involved in things. But I still want to say that when it comes to the organization, you have to build a good relationship with him. Even if you can't be friends, you must never be enemies with him!"

Conan frowned: "You are too excited, Haibara."

"No," Huihara Ai denied, "I'm very calm. Do you believe it, Detective Kudo, I have a hunch that he might be able to help us get the APTX4869 drug from the organization!"
