Chapter 57 Chapter 57 Stop it

Hirsch, Finn, and Xie were a little shocked by this. Xie was even more confused: "Wait, wait... I've never heard of this kind of thing!"
"Well, you heard it now, Tail," Kamohashi said. "Well, I felt a little suspicious the moment I noticed Liar. Among the initial clues about people connected to Liar, besides that unfortunate communications expert, who has now been confirmed to be from the French 'swimming pool,' the account connected to Liar also followed an empty account connected to Lupin. To confirm whether Robin and Liar were related, I checked with him when we boarded the cruise ship."
"Then the confirmation is obvious," Finn said. "As expected, Liar is related to Robin. Otherwise, you wouldn't be able to return the brooch to Robin."
"As Mr. Finn said, this is Robin's stuff after all," Kamohashi said. "Although it wasn't Robin who gave it to me, I think this was all planned long ago... After all, while that family are famous thieves, they've also helped many people. They have their own ways, so I'm just returning the stuff."
Sha: "Eh? But then, about Liar...?"
"Mr. Robin should get Liar back on track," Kamohashi said. "After all, Liar wasn't meant to be a 'nest' from the beginning, but a 'track.'"
"That's...ah!" Finn seemed to have realized it.
"So R is the first letter?" Hirsch snorted coldly, "So Rail, track... Wait, Rail?!"
"So, Mr. Hirsch, do you understand now? Even questioning Shashi is pointless. Strictly speaking, he has the right to refuse all inquiries." Kamohashi Ron said, "After all, this involves confidential documents of the World Detective League. So, I think, Mr. Finn, he probably doesn't want to hide it, but he has to."
Chi: "..."
Saved.
As expected of Kamonohashi Ron, he was even able to link it to Rail. He didn't have such a mission at all. The mission given to him by the World Detective League after the judicial transaction was indeed a confidential mission, but it was another one, and it also clearly showed "M family" on it.
Kai, who was still working for the World Detective League at the time, snorted coldly. "You have to thank Kamohashi Ron for this. He put aside past grudges and helped you get this legal deal. He said you put sleeping pills in Finn's black honey because he thought he might be threatened."
鯱: “Ah.”
He already knows it all.
"Otherwise, who do you think he is? Isn't it natural for a Sherlock Holmes to find out that these are not things?" Kai said this to Tail at that time, and Tail now fell silent as he looked at Kamohashi Ron who was present.
"That's the confidential investigation that led you to fly to Japan and start your emotional broadcasting business under the pretext of the Blood Internship Case," Finn said. "That Rail."
Chi: "Wait?"
Finn: "If that's the case, I really shouldn't have pressed the issue."
Chi: "..."
Why didn't Kamonohashi know about this confidential investigation?! And hasn't he been investigating the M family all along?!

Anyway, after successfully rescuing Takashi from being interrogated by Hirsch and Finn, Kamohashi Ron and Elmer left together. During this time, Elmer handed Takashi Ron something: "Takashi asked me to give this to you. After all, according to someone's orders, Takashi needs to find a way to delay you for a while. During this time, you and Officer Isshiki will be separated. It's self-evident what that someone wants to do."
Kamo no Hashiro: "...I understand."
"And judging by the expression on Sha's face, he's been completely kept in the dark by you. Could that officer Isshiki be in the dark too?" Elmer smiled. "Hmm... I have a feeling you'll be having to coax him for a long time after this."
“…”
"Ah, I'm just guessing based on how Ms. Romi and Mr. Elliot get along. Saying more would be too much of a bother." Elmer thought for a moment, then waved his hand. "But I'm a little surprised. Judging from your expression, it seems like the Rail issue is almost resolved. After all, Robin asked you to take the brooch."
"Everything was resolved from the very beginning," Kamonohashi Ron said, "from the moment Toto barged into Kamonohashi's apartment and asked if he wanted to go to the scene with me."
"Eh?" said Elmer. "Can you tell me? Now I'm a little curious."
"The original emotional livestream was purposefully designed to lure Oda out," Kamohashi said. "But he's a very cautious person. He definitely wouldn't have approached me if I hadn't continued livestreaming. And hooking up the communication expert was a complete accident... The World Detective League knew from the start that Liar did have a secret weapon capable of influencing international affairs, but... it wasn't the software used by Oda's father."
"It's the memory of the communication expert," said Elmer. "But now..."
"He's at the Metropolitan Police Department," Kamohashi Ron said. "That's the place I can trust the most besides my parents."
"Because of Mr. Ju?" Elmer asked, "After all, I know Mr. Ju is also important..."
"No, it's not." Kamohashi denied it.
“Because it’s all there.”
“…” This answer is a little unexpected.
"Environment can influence a person," Kamohashi Ron said, "but it's all very easy to understand. I can tell what he's thinking at a glance. There's almost no possibility of him lying... Moreover, belief in this kind of thing is mutual. Since I've been hiding something from him..."
"So you've decided to trust the entire Metropolitan Police Department? That's not okay, Lun."
It was Isshiki Todumaru's voice.
"I haven't asked because I believe in the theory," Isshiki Totomaru said, "because I believe you must have a reason."
"I lost to you." Kamohashi Ron turned around and said, "Thank you for always believing in me, Toto."

Elmer: "Huh? So, it turns out that Tail and I were wrong? Milo didn't attack you."
Isshiki Totomaru: "Uh... well, it was a very close call just now, but I was saved by Rin."
"By me?" Kamohashi Ron was a little confused. "Just now, because of Finn and Hirsch-sensei's questioning, some people's identities were about to be exposed. I was just helping him out of danger."
"Is that so? But it's true, because Lun indirectly helped me." Isshiki Totsumaru said, "Well... because I was attacked at first, it was probably someone from the M family, but when I screamed, it was probably too loud, so someone seemed to hear me. At that time, I heard someone say, 'It seems to be my roommate'... There are your audiences on the cruise ship, Lun."
"I don't want those spectators to board the cruise ship at a time like this. It's too dangerous."
"They're not just any spectators," Isshiki Totomaru said. "They're Suzuki and Shikano, and Kobayashi, who seems to be claiming to be his best friend's love security guard..."
Kamonohashi Ron: "It's like I suddenly know the follow-up to something incredible."
Are these two still together? Has Shikano figured it out?
"By the way, it seems it was Winter who knocked me out," Isshiki Totumaru said. "Later, I heard from Shikano that when he saw the situation was getting bad, he left. And Shikano also recognized Winter, because your photos were only visible to fans at the time... So, the photo of her you posted online was actually a wanted poster! Shikano said that this is something most fans will automatically send you private messages after following you, and it's about strange photos and requests..."
"After all, I can't really let the audience get hurt."
"Anyway, Milo is trying to use me to blackmail you," Isshiki Todumaru sighed, "I'm a little shocked. I'm completely using me as a weakness for Lun."
“Because they are all important.”
"However, since Milo's plan failed, he should change his mind," Elmer said. "He's the leader of the M family, after all. We can't underestimate him... Also, I'm a little concerned about why he specifically sent an invitation to Officer Isshiki. Was it just to get him on board and create a dilemma for you?"
"He's trying to get Toto to tell him who the undercover agent is, right? After all, when people talk about undercover agents, they usually think of those sent by official agencies," Kamohashi Ron said casually. "He seems to be joking. Why doesn't he ask Scotland Yard about the undercover agent sent to the M family?"
Isshiki Totomaru: "..."
Elmer: “Is that so?”
No, I don't think that's the case at all. I was just talking nonsense seriously just now, just like Mr. Robin at that time, but... I'm a little concerned.
Could it be that...
"If something unexpected happens to me, that undercover agent..." Isshiki Totumaru looked at Kamohashi Ron.
"Well...actually, the action has already begun."

Milo gripped his arm, which was visibly bleeding. "I never thought... that Kamonohashi's trump card would be you. So you were still alive after jumping into the sea? Clearly, neither we nor the prosecutor found your body at that time, right?"
"You're wrong." The person in front of Milo was a waiter, but when he took off his waiter's clothes, he looked very similar to Kamohashi Ron. Although Milo knew that it was definitely a disguise, Kamohashi Ron's shooting skills were so poor that it was impossible for him to hit him.
"I just accidentally boarded this cruise ship and ran into my enemy. That's what happens to people without an identity," the other party said. "So, if you die, this will be the last case I commit."
"--Stop it right there!" Kamohashi Ron's voice came from not far away.
