The lie... was discovered. It felt like it was expected, but still...
Thinking of Brother Xian's light tone, the words he said when he was put in solitary confinement by the organization couldn't help but pop up in Haibara Ai's mind again. That tone, which was apparently so gentle that it was almost inorganic, was undoubtedly what Haibara Ai feared the most.
Her heart seemed to be jumping out of her chest... Haibara Ai stood stiffly, letting herself be held by Xian like a rag doll. Although the person behind her was warm, when Haibara Ai's back was pressed against her, she only felt a chill, and she couldn't even shiver.
What would Xian do? Would he kill her? Or take her to some place for torture? Or would he let her go even if he knew she was lying? What should she do? Suddenly, she felt the person behind her move, and Huiyuan Ai shuddered slightly, like a frightened little rabbit.
"Sigh..." Haibara Ai heard a sigh behind her, and was so scared that she dared not move. She held her breath and wanted to hear what Xian had to say.
It seemed to scare the child.
【Be more confident and remove the word “seemingly”. 】
Judging from Xian's tone, he must think that this person might have something to do with the undercover agent in the organization? But I'm very sorry, it should be a "former" undercover agent in the organization. Since he is already a "former" undercover agent in the organization, he must have no value to the organization, right? Then Xian might take action...

"...No? How is that possible?" Haibara Ai looked unconvinced.
I know about this." Xian said with a smile as he shared the explosive news.
Mentioning Miyano Akemi, Huihara Ai couldn't help but smile. She wanted to say something, but Xian beat her to it: "No matter who arranged for you to meet, I am very grateful. Even if it's an undercover agent or a traitor, I will accept it. Alas."
[How can I say that you are a big liar who cheats everyone. ]
Xian touched Haibara Ai's head and said in a comforting tone: "If you are lying, it's not good... I'm not threatening you." Feeling Haibara Ai's body about to stiffen again, Xian added helplessly.
“…Huh?”
"Well... in that case, let's discuss something else?" Xian said with a smile. "... What?" Haibara Ai was stunned and looked out of Xian's arms.
Guidance, this is guidance.
But... even if he's an undercover agent or a traitor, it doesn't matter, right? Brother Xian
"Well, this is true." Xian touched Huiyuan Ai's head and comforted her appropriately. "You may not believe it, but Conan seems to be quite important in Vermouth's heart. It seems like she knew him a long time ago. I don't know if she knew Conan or Kudo." Xian said with a smile, "Because something funny happened before."
However, Brother Xian's opinion is like this... It's very, in the style of the organization. Huiyuan Ai thought gloomily. She was not surprised at all that Brother Xian would have such an idea. After all, he was raised by the organization since he was a child, and he would not say anything other than this.
[……? People doing things? ]
Eh? How can you say that? A lie that is discovered is a lie, and a lie that is not discovered is the truth~ […Face, host, your face has fallen off, hurry up and pick it up. ]
"Brother Xian." Huiyuan Ai moved, got out of Xian's arms, got down to the ground, tidied her clothes, and then looked at Xian with a smile, "Edogawa is indeed Kudo Shinichi. Because I want to develop an antidote to make us smaller, so please, brother Xian, spare his life."
"...Okay." Xian sighed softly, with a helpless smile on his face, "Then I won't ask any more questions. But it's really great that you can meet Mingmei. I was thinking, if I can't arrange a meeting for you later, you will not believe me..."
[Host, you scared the kids again! You scored three times! ! ]
"...I'm sorry, Brother Xian." Huiyuan Ai raised her head again and looked into Xian's eyes seriously, "Then...can I choose not to answer this question? Anyway...my sister is alive, and I'm fine too. As long as the result is good, Brother Xian doesn't need to ask about the process, right?"
“……” Huibara Ai’s mouth closed again as she was about to speak.
“……!”
Vermouth!!!
"Okay, okay, I don't mean anything else." Xian patted Huihara Ai's head, "Conan-kun is very smart, but his reaction to the murder case is really unlike that of a first-grade student. He observes carefully and analyzes calmly, which is something that many adults can't do. So, I couldn't help but look at him a few more times."
Can the tolerance level really be that high? Or is it actually a test for her? "...Don't you think that Brother Xian has zero tolerance for undercover agents?" Huiyuan Ai turned her head away, buried herself in Xian's arms, and asked in a low voice.
"...Ah." Xian held Huihara Ai's hand tightly and said apologetically, "It seems that Shiho was scared again."
As he spoke, Xian lowered his head and met Huibara Ai's eyes as she quietly looked up at him.
Ah... is there? But this is necessary. If I don't let Ai tell me Conan's identity, how can I clear my name in front of Conan? [You at least have a sign, right? Look at the child, his pupils are gray again. ]
Never mind, let’s just comfort him.
In a sense... So Brother Xian really treats her as a family member, right? It's not good to hide or deceive family members. If my sister hides it, she will be sad... If that's the case, it seems that there is nothing wrong with it...
"..." Meeting Xian's eyes, Huibara Ai paused for a moment, then looked away in panic.
"..." Huiyuan Ai shook her head, buried her head even lower, and said sullenly, "My tolerance is not that low."
Should I say it’s a good thing that it was Brother Xian who noticed it? If it were any other member of the organization, the great detective would have died hundreds of times already...
That witch!! What if that witch knew Edogawa's identity?! That woman hated me and the medicine I researched so much. If she knew that Kudo Shinichi turned into a child by drinking her medicine, she would kill him!! Don't think she doesn't know. That woman never wanted that medicine to be developed successfully! She must kill him and eliminate all traces while the organization is still in a hurry! By the way, maybe she can guess that my disappearance is most likely due to taking this medicine, and then she can follow the clues to find me who is following Kudo Shinichi! It will also implicate other people! Thinking of this, Haibara Ai suffocated.
It's better not to expose the undercover agent casually. Huiyuan Ai sighed in her heart. Fortunately, Brother Xian didn't seem to want to ask more questions, otherwise she might not be able to resist.
"For example..." Xian raised his lips, "The identity of that Conan-kun..."
"Well...but Vermouth doesn't seem to have any intention of hurting Conan-kun." Xian was not at all surprised that Haibara Ai would have such a reaction, and continued to add slowly.
"Ahem... um, sorry, Shiho, hahaha..." Xian hugged Huihara Ai and rubbed her head, "I think I said something that scared you again... But, your reaction was really... Sorry, I really want to laugh..."
Sorry, I'm sorry.
"Oh, by the way, Vermouth seems to be
"...Are you okay, Shiho?" Xian asked with some concern, as if he had a vision of the faded Haibara Ai.
[This is very directional, host. 】
Xian hugged Haibara Ai and slowly told her about how Vermouth had called him to save Conan's life.
"Zero tolerance..." Xian hugged Huihara Ai in his arms and answered lightly, "That's Gin, not me."
"Okay, very good." Haibara Ai curled the corners of her mouth and really wanted to give Edogawa a good "greeting".
"Pfft." Xian laughed.
"In my opinion, even if he is an undercover agent, if he still has value in the organization, there is no need to kill him." Xian patted Huihara Ai on the back, "I think... it seems inappropriate to tell Shiho about this. Will you be scared?"
“…What?!” Haibara Ai screamed. One second she was still feeling lucky that only Brother Xian knew the identity of that guy Edogawa, and the next second Brother Xian told her that Vermouth also knew it? ! What the hell? !
"Ah, of course..." Xian looked at the dark energy behind Huibara's smiling face and hesitated.
"...Brother Xian!" Huihara Ai's voice rose a little.
"..." Haibara Ai was speechless, but it was also expected. After all, she knew how conspicuous that careless detective was, and it was not surprising that Brother Xian would notice it.
Haibara Ai raised her head cautiously and looked at Xian secretly.
"I mean, if you don't want to tell me, Shiho can choose not to tell me." Xian touched Huihara Ai's head casually, "After all... in a sense, 'deception' can make people very sad."
"But..." Haibara Ai's back was filled with dark energy, but she still had a bright smile on her face, "Edogawa-kun doesn't seem to have much respect or fear for the organization... I hope Brother Xian won't show mercy when it comes to letting him see how powerful the organization is."
"...Ah." Xian blinked and nodded mechanically, "Okay."
Looking at Huibara Ai who found an excuse to leave the bookstore, Xian asked Xiao Si sincerely in his heart.
