323.

No one present expected that Morofushi Kagemitsu could throw this punch. Even the furious Fūya Rei was shocked and suddenly calmed down.

Akai Shuichi was hit and staggered. He took a step back and finally put some distance between himself and the two public security officers who were ready to attack at any time.

He turned around and coughed, wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth, and said in a low voice: "I know how you feel, but please don't act on impulse."

"I didn't act on impulse." Zhu Fu Jingguang said coldly, "As for you, I hope you can give an explanation for what you just said."

His position changed with his movements, and the eavesdropping device stuck to his trouser leg reflected a little light under the light, which was accidentally seen by Furutani Rei behind him.

"Wait!" He interrupted Shuichi Akai before he could speak, squatted down, and took off the small round piece from Morobushi Kagemitsu's trouser leg, and his lips were almost bitten and bled.

Someone is eavesdropping!

The brown-haired man's face suddenly changed from blue to white: "This is——!"

His breathing suddenly became rapid. Like Furiya Rei, he thought that the two were eavesdroppers organized by the organization. He suddenly felt dizzy for what he had just said.

Furutani Rei had a gloomy face, and before he could say anything, he saw Akai Shuichi coughing twice and making a "calm down" gesture to them.

The FBI turned around quickly and brought in the young detective who was eavesdropping outside in less than ten seconds.

"Edogawa Conan is a detective." Akai Shuichi slowly interrupted a short guy and said, "This bug is his."

Furuya Rei: “?”

Morofushi Kagemitsu: “!”

All eyes were focused on him. The young detective in hospital gown swallowed his saliva, thinking something was wrong.

He hadn't expected that what the police and the FBI were discussing that night would be so explosive. He forgot to pay attention to his surroundings until Shuichi Akai walked behind him and covered his mouth, then he reacted.

But what's the point of reacting... Is this considered eavesdropping secrets?!

Conan Edogawa finally figured out what he had heard and he even wanted to kill himself for having put the bug there.

"Conan?!" Morobushi Kagemitsu frowned, looking at the pale-faced kid with guilty eyes, "Did Detective Maori ask you to come? Did you hear everything?"

Conan Edogawa didn't dare to blame others for this: "No, no, no, that's not it!" He stammered, "I was just curious about what you talked about with Mr. Akai, so just now..."

Zhufu Jingguang rubbed his brows and said, "Zero, I was careless."

Naturally, Furuya Rei would not think it was Morobushi Kagemitsu's fault. He stabbed Akai Shuichi coldly: "I didn't expect you to be so reckless as to tell your identity to an elementary school student. Do you know how much risk you have brought to him?"

Shuichi Akai: “…” Okay, no matter what he will be targeted today.

He explained: "Conan-kun is not an ordinary child. Basically, he was the one who revealed your identity to me."

Furuya Rei's face instantly darkened, and he looked at Conan Edogawa with murderous eyes.

The young detective sighed in his heart, Mr. Akai, please don't transfer your hatred to me...

He had just listened outside and roughly understood what had happened. Only then did he truly feel how much bloodshed and sacrifice had been caused in the confrontation between the people and the organization.

The member of the organization code-named "Shinso" was an undercover agent of the Public Security Bureau. After lurking for many years, her health deteriorated. By chance, Shuichi Akai used her to enter the organization and then deceived her... Well, it doesn't seem that serious!

However, the public security rescue failed and Shinsou died, which is why Chiyodani Toru fell into a coma.

Some of them are difficult to explain scientifically, but they make sense.

Conan Edogawa looked up at Akai Shuichi, whose face was swollen from being beaten, and who was still calm and handsome, and felt that he did not deserve the beating at all.

But - the name Shinsou seems familiar?

It seems that when Huibara fell into a coma due to a high fever, she murmured this word...

Conan Edogawa was held in the hands of Shuichi Akai, and was so scared that he began to have wild thoughts and random analyses. Little did he know that Furuya Rei had been staring at him for a long time, and inexplicably felt that he looked familiar.

"Conan." He called out suddenly, took off his glasses when the young detective looked up blankly, and asked sharply, "What is your relationship with Kudo Shinichi?"

Conan Edogawa suddenly revealed his identity: "?!!!"

"I usually think you are very smart, but Detective Maori always finds a way to protect you." The blond man chuckled, his expression looking gloomy and cold, showing his bourbon nature. "I came to work at the Polo Cafe to investigate the movements of Detective Maori. Of course, I have investigated your background."

Edogawa Conan swallowed.

"I was just suspicious at first, but tonight - you seem to be eager to tell the truth?"

"Do you know what the consequences are of eavesdropping on the police and FBI?"

Seeing that Morobushi Kagemitsu's hands were reaching for the gun pouch at his waist, Edogawa Conan instantly slid to his knees: "Private Masturbation!!"

He skillfully repeated his confession to Chiyodani Toru, and finally, under the complicated gazes of the three reliable adults, he began to stammer and explain why he became like this, and - Haibara Ai.

Edogawa Conan, oh no, Kudo Shinichi, he is really regretting it now.

Although eavesdropping on so many secrets did satisfy his curiosity, it also meant that his future actions would be restricted by the public security, and -

Morofushi Kagemitsu and Furuya Rei will definitely tell Hagiwara Kenji and Matsuda Jinpei! Those two policemen who usually like to tease him (from Kudo Shinichi to Edogawa Conan, for seven years), I don't know how to laugh at him!

The three of them listened quietly to Conan Edogawa's narration. Akai Shuichi had guessed most of the truth and was not very surprised, while the other two had a deeper understanding of the drugs that the organization was researching.

"Get smaller... the injuries on the body will heal... Shirley will be in charge of the research." Zhu Fu Jingguang repeated in a low voice, his eyes a little empty, and his expression seemed to be both sad and happy.

The senior disappeared in that situation. Is it possible that he took APTX-4869? She and Sulli were so close...

Just by looking at his expression, Fūya Rei knew what Morobushi Kagemitsu was thinking. He sighed and felt a little emotional.

Shinsou has been trapped for so long, and with Shirley as a counterexample, there is no way the organization would let her bring the medicine in, not to mention that APTX-4869 is still used as a poison in the organization.

Shirley has an explanation for her mysterious disappearance in the gas chamber, but she rejuvenated and became a child, and in the blink of an eye her two close sisters died. Given her personality, she would probably feel extremely guilty, right?

I didn't expect it to be next to Conan...

Furiya Rei's purple-gray eyes stared sharply at Edogawa Conan: "Shinichi, although we haven't met much, we have known each other for seven or eight years. I can identify your identity from clues - you know that when you take off your glasses, you look a lot like you when you were a kid, right?"

Edogawa Conan nodded and confessed madly.

"You'd better not get involved in the organization's affairs." Furuya Rei continued, "We will handle it."

Conan Edogawa said reflexively: "No!"

Morobushi Kagemitsu used his ultimate move in a gentle voice: "Then I will tell Miss Mori about this."

Edogawa Conan was suddenly struck by lightning.

Akai Shuichi couldn't stand it any longer. He put his hand on the young detective's shoulder and used himself as a guarantee: "Conan-kun's strength and wisdom are not bad. He is suitable to help us connect the information behind the scenes. Moreover, as a child, it is not easy for the organization to detect him."

Furiya Rei sneered: "I don't believe the FBI's guarantee. What if you sell him out next time? Akai Shuichi, you must be very experienced in weighing the pros and cons."

Akai Shuichi fell silent.

Shinsou's death made him forever inferior to the public security, leaving him with no room for excuses.

For some reason, Edogawa Conan had the illusion that he and Mr. Akai were being beaten up by the two public security officers in front of them. No matter what they said, they would be the ones to be scolded and apologize in the end.

The little detective's hair was drooping.

The two men, one big and one small, stood in a row, unable to fight back in front of Morobushi Kagemitsu and Furugaya Rei.

It was almost three in the morning. If Mouri Ran, who was accompanying the patient and found that Conan Edogawa was missing, came out to look for him, the situation would become even more chaotic.

Furuya Rei wanted to ask Akai Shuichi what he just said, so he said to Edogawa Conan: "Go back to sleep first, we'll talk about this later."

"I won't leave." Edogawa Conan felt that if he stuck his head out, he would be in trouble. If he left, he would suffer a great loss. He hugged Akai Shuichi's legs and said stubbornly, "I want to know about Toru-nii!"

"He is not only your friend, but also a very important person to me!"

Then, the three of them turned their attention back to Akai Shuichi, and Morofushi Kagemitsu said coldly: "Rearrange your nonsense words."

Shuichi Akai pursed his lips and told the story of what happened at the staircase seven years ago when he had investigated Shinsou before joining the organization.

Shuichi Akai: "He shot me without hesitation."

Morobushi Kagemitsu: "Shinso-senpai wasn't surprised by your appearance. She knew that the FBI's trump card would be able to dodge so many bullets."

Akai Shuichi: "How could the organization let Chiyodani Toru stay out there? He looks so much like Shinsou?"

A trace of sadness flashed across Fūya Rei's eyes: "The organization actually didn't let him go. He has a chronic poison in his body..."

Edogawa Conan: "?!!"

Shuichi Akai didn't expect there was such a behind-the-scenes story and was speechless for a moment.

"Brother Che... turned out to be a victim of the organization as well?" The detective felt shocked. He said in a daze, "How could this be..."

He only saw Chiyodani Toru becoming increasingly exhausted due to work, but he had no idea that he had so many worries hidden behind him.

Damn it, if I had known he was poisoned, I would have asked Huibara to help...

No!!

"Brother Amuro." Edogawa Conan looked up at him, his blue eyes full of seriousness, "You just said that you suspected that Shirley made the temporary antidote for Tetsu-kun, right?"

Furuya Rei nodded.

Conan Edogawa said firmly: "It's not her!"

"Not only is it not Gray... Shirley, she is even afraid of Tetsu-kun." The young detective murmured, his blue eyes full of fear, "Just like her reaction when she first met Mr. Akai."

According to Haibara Ai, they have the aura of an organization.

It was later confirmed that although Akai Shuichi was an FBI agent, he had been undercover in the organization for some time; let alone Furuya Rei, he is still in the organization; and when Haibara Eleda had her attack, most of the people on the scene were members of the organization...

Conan Edogawa instinctively didn't want to suspect Chiyodani Toru, but after talking with the three of them, his suspicion of Chiyodani Toru increased instead.

Morofushi Kagemitsu and Furiya Rei also looked unhappy.

Shuichi Akai added slowly, "I think you should know very well, Bourbon, that Granmani has not appeared in the organization recently."

"Will this lunatic who usually clamors to kill Shensou himself, and even goes crazy enough to kill all the witnesses, be silent?"

--will not.

Everyone thinks so.

But Granmani did not show up, as if he was unable to show up for some reason.

"Granmani... maybe Chego?"

Conan Edogawa's face turned even paler. He knew that Shuichi Akai suspected Chiyodani Toru, but he never thought that the code member they were referring to would be that person!

The man who killed Miyano Akemi looked mentally unstable!

Could he be Chiyotani Toru?! The police officer who had lived next door to him for nine years, with a gentle smile and a crush on Sherlock Holmes?!

But if you think about it carefully, it doesn't seem impossible: Granmani disguised himself and even pretended to have a fake voice, which was enough to prove that his true face could not be seen by others; the metal glasses he carried with him on a daily basis were of unknown function, but extremely rare, and Chiyotani Toru happened to have them.

The horrific truth pieced together from these doubts is enough to make everyone shudder.

In line with the principle of pursuing the truth, Conan Edogawa also pointed out this doubt. However, in the eyes of others, this was a detail that had already been known but deliberately ignored.

Akai Shuichi twitched his lips and said stiffly: "Do you still think I'm talking nonsense now?"

Zhufu Jingguang looked down at the white shadow of the light on the ground, and felt black spots appearing in front of his eyes. He felt dizzy and weak, and his ears seemed to be buzzing.

It was as if he was in the center of a bomb again, powerless and suffocating, with death lingering around him like a shadow.

How could this happen?

Toru, Toru... He wants to kill Shinsou? He—

"Hiro!" Seeing Morobushi Kagemitsu's pale face, Furuya Ling quickly supported him and asked anxiously, "Are you okay?"

"Sorry, maybe I haven't rested for too long." Zhu Fu Jingguang came back to his senses and smiled at him, but his eyes were looking for help, "Zero... Do you think he is?"

The last three words were incredibly light.

Fūya Ling was silent. He said softly, "I want to hear his own explanation."

"Maybe we can ask Matsuda and Hagiwara first." Morobushi Kagemitsu smiled ugly, and even said that the smile was more like the triggering of a defense mechanism, with an illusory and ethereal feeling, "They have been with Toru for the longest time, and they can see him almost every day... right?"

Akai Shuichi nodded in realization: "We can definitely start with the police officers in the Investigation Division 1."

Conan Edogawa couldn't bear to watch and tugged at his clothes, and whispered "Mr. Akai".

How could this adult be such an idiot now?! The police officer was obviously not talking to him!

Compared to the two of them... the policemen who have been with Chiyodani Toru for so many years and can be said to be friends for life and death, must be feeling even worse, right?

Furuya Rei ignored Akai Shuichi and Edogawa Conan who were standing there in a daze, and gave Morobushi Kagemitsu a silent hug.

No matter what, they also saw the change in Chiyodani Toru's temperament.

The metal glasses first appeared after he disappeared. At that time, Chiyodani Toru's mental state was so changeable that they even suspected he had multiple personalities. Although it was later explained by poisoning, the antidote brought new doubts.

There is also the coma of Chu Qiao, the strange earrings, and the attitude towards Shinsou...

Doubts came at the two of them like meteorites, and they were unable to avoid them. The feeling of having their emotions and rationality torn apart made Fūya Rei feel suffocated.

If Chiyodani Toru really became a member of the organization for some reason, then the length of time he lay dormant and the intelligence he obtained would be enough to deal a devastating blow to the public security.

What's more...

Countless flowers of blood bloomed before his eyes, the screams and terrified faces of the victims were frozen in front of his eyes, and Granmani's extremely crazy actions and eyes were vividly remembered.

Rei Furuya could not relate to all this and the gentle and caring police officer who was willing to sacrifice his life for the public good.

"Toru, I said in person that I would arrest Granmani." Furuya Rei murmured in his heart, "I said I would not let him go."

"So please... don't let it be him."
