Chapter 95
Conan Edogawa looks like just a seven-year-old elementary school student, but his true identity is the high school detective Shinichi Kudo who has not appeared for some time.
While visiting an amusement park with Xiaolan, he witnessed a transaction by the Black Organization and was accidentally attacked from behind by Gin. He drank a drug that was later named APTX-4869 and turned into a child.
Later, when he met the drug researcher, Miyano Shiho, who now goes by the alias Haibara Ai, the other party once told him: the current drug A that can make people rejuvenate is actually not the ultimate drug sought by the organization, but only a half-finished failed product.
What they are really after is the legendary elixir of life.
The Black Organization is mysterious and has a long history. After more than half a century of continuous attempts and efforts, there will certainly be various other achievements besides Drug A - for example, the young and somewhat abnormal Belmode is one of them.
Conan Edogawa has reason to suspect that he has now seen another research result of the organization.
As a ninja, Bai Yun's keen senses allowed him to immediately notice Edogawa Conan's gaze, but his expression did not change at all. He still had a pair of dead fish eyes, looking expressionlessly at Gojo Satoru in front of him.
When Amuro came over to pass him the menu, this guy suddenly started talking about all sorts of nonsense. In short, he was saying openly and secretly that "Hatake Kakashi" was his predecessor, and that Gojo Satoru had admired him since he was a child, and that when they met recently, he was indeed as good as his reputation.
Bai Yun looked at Gojo Satoru who was acting out of nowhere, and was a little confused: "Why did you do this?"
"Isn't this just to test how deep the connection between this group of people and Uchiha Madara is?"
Gojo Satoru leaned on his face, with a table full of desserts in front of him, shaking a spoon, and said leisurely, "If they start chasing you later, it proves that Uchiha Madara's hint is not very solid. They can completely rely on their own judgment to realize who they need to be most on guard against."
Bai Yun blinked. If it weren't for the obvious mischievous expression on Gojo Satoru's face, he would have almost thought that the other party was pointing at him.
Fortunately, the second setting had been ingrained into Gojo Satoru's mind to such an extent that there was no possibility for him to regain consciousness.
As for Conan Edogawa...if you think he's not a good person, then he's not a good person. At worst, he can just change his identity. It just so happens that I drew one before.
Thinking of this, Bai Yun let out a long sigh and pushed the coffee in front of him away - the latte art on the milk cap was actually in the shape of the sacred tree.
Because of the previous live broadcast, the popularity of the sacred tree is further increasing, and various related derivative industries are also beginning to spread outside City C.
It is said that efforts are being made to rebuild the walls of City C. The mayor of City C, who is trying to maintain order and control public opinion, has recently wanted to make a fuss about these chaos, but has never found the time.
Of course, it's not that everyone really believes this - it's just that it doesn't matter what you do. One more skill means one more business, and no one will turn away business.
"And I mean it."
Gojo Satoru naturally took the coffee that Bai Yun had not touched, scooped up the pattern on it and examined it, saying, "I really respect you."
Bai Yun: “?”
Gojo Satoru explained to himself, "You know, Yuta and Hisahito both have some memories of when they were in the Infinite Moonlight Reading. After they came out, they sometimes came to talk to me, so I also heard some of your achievements as a teacher."
He ate the milk cap on the spoon in one bite and said vaguely: "To be able to teach students who are better than you is a great thing in my eyes."
Although Gojo Satoru is narcissistic and has always known and does not reject his identity as the strongest, he has never developed a possessive desire for this position.
Of course, the strongest position belongs to him, and he will work hard to defend his position...but if any challenger appears, Gojo Satoru will not have any rejection feelings.
On the contrary, ever since he started teaching, he has always wanted to teach students who can stand by him or even surpass him.
Unfortunately, Gojo Satoru has never been successful. There are many reasons for this, such as pressure from senior executives and the limitations of students' own potential, but Gojo Satoru himself is not very suitable for the job of a teacher.
Because he is too strong and knows almost everything, this kind of genius often cannot understand the students' confusion, and cannot prescribe the right medicine to improve the students' abilities in the most effective way.
So when Gojo Satoru said that he respected Hatake Kakashi, he meant it.
"And if I follow you, I might meet 'Uchiha Obito'."
Gojo Satoru recalled, "Yuta mentioned before that this person had corrected his technique before. Was he also a teacher?"
Bai Yun: “…No.”
Gojo Satoru shook his head. "That's a shame. He looks like he would be a good teacher."
Bai Yun: “…”
Would Uchiha Obito be a good teacher?
After hearing this, Bai Yun couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
Putting aside the process of darkening itself, Uchiha Obito's personality is actually a more enthusiastic type, which is why he became a friend of Konoha's women when he was young.
Even on the battlefield of the Fourth World War, when Uchiha Madara mocked the Allied Ninja Army as a mob, and Uzumaki Naruto was mocked again by Madara for not knowing the meaning of the word, it was Uchiha Obito who stepped forward (?) and explained the meaning of a mob to him.
…From this perspective, a real teacher like Kakashi would intentionally be late, put on makeup to tease his students, read pornographic books, often scare students, and use the Millennium Death on the 12-year-old Uzumaki Naruto…
Oh my god, it's hard to list them all. It's probably true that Uchiha Obito is more suitable to be a teacher.
"never mind."
The reasons given by both sides were sufficient, and to be honest, Otsukotsu Kyouta had been living a good life before, but now he feels like an Uchiha. Although most of the blame is from Gojo Satoru, Bai Yun does not intend to evade responsibility.
If this kid really followed the Uchiha guys and messed around, and ended up hurting himself like he burned his mouth last time, Bai Yun would feel bad.
However, considering the difference between the two worlds, Bai Yun still did not speak too confidently: "But I can't guarantee the results."
Seeing him relax, Gojo Satoru smiled and said, "It's okay. Yuta will make his own judgment."
At this time, Amuro Toru reappeared, holding a tray full of desserts: "Hello, your additional desserts have arrived."
Bai Yun just glanced at it and shook his head: "I didn't order these things."
Hatake Kakashi is a gay, and so is Bai Yun when he's wearing his vest. Sui Dessert is not in a good mood.
“Ah, this is what I ordered.”
Gojo Satoru asked the other party to put it down, and said to Bai Yun without any hesitation: "Times are changing very quickly. Trying new things is also good for maintaining a young mentality."
The corner of Toru Amuro's eye twitched secretly, and he glanced at the snacks that Gojo Satoru added.
Unlike the weird combinations he tried in the beginning, these additions are all classics of the store, such as original egg tarts, chocolate mousse, strawberry parfait and the like - they have been tested by time and will never go wrong.
In other words, by the standards of modern teenagers, this is definitely not novel.
These two people really have big problems.
When Amuro Toru made this judgment, he was also wondering in his heart: But since he dared to talk about this topic in public without any reservation... did he think that others would not take it seriously? Or was he testing his identity?
As a double-faced spy, Amuro Toru, who has always been cautious as if walking on a tightrope, thought for a moment, and finally put down all the desserts, standing aside as if a little embarrassed: "Well, I'm really sorry, I have been a little concerned about the conversations of customers since the beginning."
"Are these two customers from that big family? They look about the same age, so why do they act like they are of different generations?"
“Because it’s so different.”
Even with his eyes closed, Bai Yun could imagine Gojo Satoru's expression from his frivolous tone: "Let me introduce you, this is my great-great-great-great...grandfather!"
Amuro Toru: “?”
He didn't think that any family could produce such an outrageous generational structure, nor did he think that the Black Organization could have survived hundreds of years to the present.
So, although he clearly heard the truth (what Gojo Satoru thought), Amuro Toru felt that he was fooled and smiled professionally without any emotion: "Guest, you are really good at joking."
Gojo Satoru snorted: "But what I said is true."
Seeing that Gojo Satoru wanted to test him further, Bai Yun glanced at him with a headache. However, after feeling his gaze, Gojo Satoru actually restrained himself.
"Forget it, just put your things down and continue your work. We don't need anyone here."
"Okay, got it."
Toru Amuro nodded, watching the silent communication between the two.
On the way back, Edogawa Conan followed him, and when he reached a deserted corner, he asked anxiously, "What did they say?"
"I got fooled." Amuro Toru's expression was cold, "But Gojo Satoru seems to really listen to the new guy."
After a few days of getting along, Amuro Toru, as a professional intelligence officer, was able to obtain a lot of intelligence from Gojo Satoru from various details.
In addition to the name that the other party did not really intend to conceal, Toru Amuro also discovered that this person had a strange sweet tooth. He ate a lot of sweets every day as if it was a daily task. He was as free as a vagrant every day, but his daily consumption was not low. He must have some business at home.
But when Toru Amuro followed this direction to investigate, he felt obvious obstacles. He quickly remembered what Conan Edogawa had said before, that there must be an official umbrella for Gojo Satoru.
After realizing that this approach was not feasible, Toru Amuro also tried to use the Black Organization's intelligence network to check Gojo Satoru's intelligence, but the result was still unsatisfactory.
At that time, Toru Amuro thought that the two sides might be on different paths, and that was why he could not find any information about Gojo Satoru.
But today, after knowing that these two people were most likely connected to the Black Organization, Toru Amuro had another answer in his heart.
——That is Gojo Satoru’s authority, which is higher than that of Amuro Toru, who is an intelligence officer with a code name and a secret agent.
And this brings up another question.
Gojo Satoru's status is already higher than Amuro Toru's.
So, what about the other person he respected so much?
Bai Yun: Okay, okay, I will inherit the winery painlessly, right?
5t5: Hmm...why aren't all of what I said true?
Although I didn’t make it to 9 o’clock, I was still able to make it to 10 o’clock! I’m very satisfied!
