Conan: Another Famous Detective

Outside the pharmaceutical factory, surveillance point.

"When did you know there was a bomb in the archives?" Kage turned his head and looked at Yu Gongming with a slightly serious look.

Yu Gongming shrugged: "There were speculations before, but it was not completely confirmed until just now."

Ying Yi raised his eyebrows slightly: "Did Mr. Nine-Tails obtain the information while lurking into the factory?"

"Is this important?" Yu Gongming said with a smile: "Now that the information has been shared, you can avoid danger, right?"

Ying Yi was silent for a while and then said: "If you discover any information in the future, you can definitely let us know. We can discuss any conditions."

"Definitely next time." Yu Gongming nodded.

…………

The people in black robes and Mr. Kyuubi returned to the second floor.

"How is the situation over there?" Ying Twelve contacted Ying Three and asked.

"Everything is normal now, no new enemies are found approaching." Ying San responded, paused, and asked: "Did you encounter any trouble over there?"

Shadow Twelve did not hide anything, and briefly described the situation here.

Ying San let out a "huh" sound: "I didn't expect that we stayed in such a dangerous place for so long. Fortunately, we didn't act rashly, otherwise everyone would have finished playing!"

"Yeah!" Shadow Twelve also had some lingering fears: "This should be the organization's back-up plan. Once the people sent down cannot suppress and capture us alive, they will activate the bombs and kill us all!"

"Then what are your plans now?" Ying San asked.

Shadow Twelve replied: "We have received orders from above to follow Mr. Kyuubi. Depending on Mr. Kyuubi's intentions, we may have to leave this underground base. You should also come together."

"Oh? Is that so? Okay, then we'll wait for you on the first floor." Ying San replied.

Afterwards, the communication was hung up, and Shadow Twelve looked at Mr. Kyuubi: "Do you really want everyone to leave? Once you go to other places, it may not be so easy to come back."

Mr. Kyuubi said calmly: "Except for the third-floor archives, no other place is suitable for storing files, and you also understand the situation of the third-floor archives."

"Let's not mention that there are all bombs there. If you are not careful, the whole army will be wiped out. Even if there is some information in the filing cabinet that the organization is willing to use as bait to install bombs, how important is it?"

Shadow Twelve frowned: "But I still feel something is wrong."

He glanced around: "We saw a lot of corpses along the way. Of course, a lot of them belonged to Black Sakura, but more of them were armed personnel of the organization. It is estimated that there are dozens of them."

"If the information in the archive is not that important, is the price of this bait too high?"

Mr. Kyuubi nodded slightly: "You are right. At first glance, it seems that the price paid by the organization to guard this place is indeed high."

After a pause, he suddenly showed a half-smile but said, "But is the price really as high as imagined?"

Ying Twelve was startled: "Huh? What do you mean?"

Mr. Kyuubi chuckled: "Let me ask you, if it were you who wanted to protect top-secret information, what kind of people would you arrange?"

Shadow Twelve said without much thought: "Of course he is a person with sufficient experience, strong ability, and enough loyalty."

"That's right!" Mr. Kyuubi nodded: "Let's not mention the first two. Loyalty requires enough time to establish."

"That's the truth." Ying Twelve nodded in agreement.

[Shadows] like them were carefully selected by Director White Horse, and after repeated inspections, they were finally trusted and allowed to participate in various secret missions.

This time span is almost measured in years.

Thinking of this, his thoughts changed, and a guess flashed in his mind. Astonishment flashed in his eyes, and he said: "Your Excellency, you mean that they have not been in the organization for a long time?"

"Yes." Mr. Kyuubi nodded and responded, confirming Shadow Twelve's guess: "The vast majority of people have joined the organization for less than half a year. Even if a small number of people have more than half a year, there is probably a problem with their identity."

Ying Twelve's eyebrows trembled slightly: "Is this... a mantis stalking a cicada, with the oriole behind?"

"Hmph! That's probably it." Mr. Kyuubi said with a hint of mockery in his tone: "Some insignificant cannon fodder, and undercover agents with impure motives are responsible for dealing with Black Sakura, plus the layout in the archives... it's really Good calculation!"

After a pause, Mr. Kyuubi continued: "And the resistance you encountered when you came down are the real insiders of the organization. They have been lurking in the employee dormitories before."

Shadow Twelve couldn't help but take a deep breath, and the corners of his mouth under the mask twitched slightly: "If we weren't cautious enough and had your intelligence support, I'm afraid..."

Shadow Twelve did not continue speaking, but he already understood the consequences in his heart.

Black Sakura will be consumed by cannon fodder and undercover agents, and they will help kill Black Sakura, while the organization will use the layout in the archives and the large number of manpower ambushed in advance to catch all their people who enter the underground base!

If things really develop like this, then the organization will undoubtedly be the biggest winner in the whole thing!

"So." Mr. Kyuubi gently shook his index finger and said with a smile: "When it comes to the black organization, you can't take it too seriously."

When Ying Twelve heard this, he couldn't help but nodded in agreement, and then suddenly he was startled and realized something was wrong.

He looked at Mr. Kyuubi with some subtle eyes: "How do you know that these people have just joined the organization? And how do you judge that there are undercovers inside?"

"Of course we have our own methods." Mr. Kyuubi showed a mysterious smile: "I think this is not information that can be shared, right?"

"I was rude." Ying Twelve immediately apologized: "As long as your information is true, we won't ask anything else."

"This is best." Mr. Kyuubi said calmly.

Shadow Twelve silently recorded this matter in his mind and planned to report it later. The evaluation of the intelligence capabilities of the [collaborator] may have to change again.

Mr. Kyuubi secretly laughed in his heart. He understood that after this conversation, the people in black robes would definitely conduct an investigation afterwards.

Unfortunately, it is almost impossible to find the real channel for obtaining information.

Because his intelligence comes from the information he himself possesses.

[He] has stayed in the organization for too long, so long that [he] has witnessed the changes of core members of the organization for several generations.

And [he] happens to be very good at remembering other people's faces.

Therefore, anyone who has been in the organization for a period of time will have an impression.

But [he] could recognize very few of the guys guarding the archives.

Combined with their cannon fodder positioning, the answer is readily apparent.
