Deception 12
"This is Miss Kosaka's castle..." After sitting in the car for a long time, Ishii Kazuki got out and stretched. "It looks very luxurious from a distance, and it's even more amazing when you look at it up close... Huh?" He caught a glimpse of a familiar yellow Beetle out of the corner of his eye. "The doctor is here too?"
It turns out that not only did Professor Agasa come, but the Junior Detective League also came along. While Conan and the others were chatting, Officer Shiratori stepped forward and walked to the side of Ishii Kazuki, "Inspector Ishii, now..."
"Pay attention," Ishii Kazuki made a shushing gesture and winked at the "Officer Shiratori" with a gloomy look in his eyes. "The most important thing right now is official business."
"I know you're anxious, but don't worry now."

The rain was heavy and the sky was still grey, as if it was about to be submerged by the overwhelming rain. The gloomy atmosphere suppressed people's hearts, making it hard to breathe.
"Busha Ron was the organization's move," said the former Dai Moroboshi, now Shuichi Akai, who had already cut his long hair. His forest green eyes were still sharp. He was talking on the phone to his boss through a layer of glass, separated from the sound of rain. "The pharmaceutical company he targeted was in cooperation with the organization."
"They are secretly supporting the Black Organization in developing drugs," his boss, James Blake, confirmed his opinion, "There is also a lot of data related to human experiments hidden in the dark web..."
"Is Busha Ron also a test subject?" Akai Shuichi lit the cigarette in his mouth, but accidentally pulled the wound at the corner of his mouth, making a faint hissing sound. A few days ago, when he was investigating the pharmaceutical company targeted by Busha Ron, he accidentally bumped into a bottle of Bourbon. Although he successfully retreated, he was still injured. "I met Bourbon. I remember that the previous intelligence said that he was sent to Neon, but I saw him again in the Lighthouse Country not long ago. It seems that this case is also related to the Rum faction..."
"The experiment that Busha Ron participated in had nothing to do with the Black Organization," the older man said in a capable manner. "It was just a coincidence between some crazy researchers and unscrupulous companies."
"...Is this the news from inside?" Akai Shuichi methodically packed up his things and prepared to leave. He couldn't stay in the temporary safe house for long. Besides, if Bourbon was nearby, this place might not be safe. "Are you sure? Are there still people so close to us?"
"...The direction is different," James evaded the question about Bushar Ron, "No," Akai Shuichi could hear his boss sighing, "No one in the FBI is deeper into the organization than you..."
"Where is that from?" CIA? MI6? Akai Shuichi thought about the possible intelligence departments in his mind, "What is the current situation?"
"...I don't know the details, but," James deliberately didn't say it clearly, "it is said that the person almost succeeded in killing the Boss."
"...Did he betray?"
"No, it's the other way around." Even on the phone, Akai Shuichi could hear James's bitter smile. "He died nineteen years ago, and this information was not even shared with the FBI until ten years ago."
Shuichi Akai had already opened the door, and the damp and cold smell came into his nostrils with the wind. In the pouring rain, the last communication seemed blurry.
"...he's with the IRS..."
Behind the black-haired man, a faint reflection of light could be seen from the decorative green plants, but it disappeared in an instant, as if it was just an illusion.
