Conan: When I Be Gin's Brother

Late at night, with the mood of giving it a try, Kurosawa Rin came to the Rice Flower Shrine alone.

At the Rice Flower Shrine today, the only old man is lying sickly on the bed with no one watching over him. He probably thought that the thief had been caught and would not come again, so he relaxed his vigilance.

This was an advantage for Kurosawa Rin. He pried open the lock and entered the Rice Flower Shrine. What he saw in front of him was a pile of rags and some utensils that he didn't know what they were used for. There was nothing suspicious anymore.

Slightly calming down, Kurosawa Rin withdrew his inner world and directed his magic power to the outside, barely covering this small warehouse.

Since it is a magic item, it should be able to sense the magic power. With this idea in mind, Kurosawa Rin carefully felt the fluctuations of the magic power and found something abnormal.

"Buzz~"

I don't know if it was an illusion, but Kurosawa Rin heard a buzzing sound in a place where debris was piled up. He subconsciously narrowed the scope of his magic power and once again shrouded it in the direction of the sound.

"Buzz!"

The buzzing sound became clearer, and he fixed his gaze on a certain place. It was a gray guard, a bit shabby and unremarkable. Touching it from the outside, it seemed that there were a few round beads inside.

This talisman reacted to magic power and was a magic prop, but it was thrown casually into the trash basket and was not taken seriously.

I don’t know what the purpose of this gray guard is. Anyway, I’d better take it back and find an opportunity to ask Koizumi Anko. I just wanted to ask her about my previous inability to use magic.

Just taking away a guard shouldn't attract anyone's attention.

Having made up his mind, Kurosawa Rin took away the guard and walked out of the shrine warehouse, restoring everything to its original state as if no one had been there at all.

After returning home with the royal guard, Narumi seemed to have heard the noise and came out quickly. He was relieved to see it was Kurosawa Rin.

"Scared me."

Kurosawa Rin reached back and closed the door, "What's wrong? You were so surprised?"

Cheng Shi looked at Li Mo, who was sleeping soundly on the sofa, with a look of helplessness on his face, "As soon as you went out, someone ran to the back door to pick the lock."

He threw a broken wire to the ground with a snap, "I just replaced it, and I have to replace it again."

"I just thought he went to Huohuomen again."

Kurosawa Rin couldn't help but frown a few times, and finally said, "Where did he get so many wires?"

Cheng Shi spread his hands and said, "Who knew, I just dug into his coat pocket and found so much."

He stretched out his hand and got a handful of wire.

"..." No, this guy can't stay for long!

Tomorrow we must let him go back to where he came from!

Neither Cheng Shi nor Kurosawa Rin slept well that night, but Li Mo was in good spirits the next day.

After he got up, he stretched his waist, looked at the two of them and paused slightly, "What were you two busy with yesterday? You have such heavy dark circles?"

...Of course I was watching a certain idiot to prevent him from tearing down the door.

Seeing Li Mo wake up, Kurosawa Rin quickly issued an order to expel him, "Now that he's awake, go back to your Kyoto as soon as possible. Don't stay here anymore. Our family can't bear your love."

Li Mo seemed a little unhappy, with a slight frown on his expressionless face, "If I don't leave, you haven't taught me how to pick a lock and disguise on site. Ah, the way you and the police officer analyze things is also very good. I also

Want to learn."

...What method of analyzing things? Are you talking about reasoning?

To learn reasoning, look for me, a fake... Go find Kogoro Mori, he is willing to take on a disciple!

Kurosawa Rin's face turned darker and darker, "Why do you want to learn these weird things? Besides, if you want to learn these things, just sign up for a class!"

This time it was Li Mo who looked confused, "Where can I learn?"

Kurosawa Rin thought for a while, then patted Li Mo on the shoulder with a serious look, "Hawaii!"

"There, you can learn all kinds of things, including flying a plane, defusing bombs, masturbating... Ahem, in short, you can learn everything, lock-picking and the like are just small cases!"

"And! If you mention Kudo Shinichi's name when the time comes, the tuition will be 50% off!"

"Really?" Li Mo's eyes shone, "I don't ask for much, I just need to learn how to pick a lock."

This child's request is really simple... Kurosawa Rin smiled slightly and pushed Li Mo out of the room seriously, "So! Boy! What are you waiting for?"

“Wonderful Hawaii awaits you!”

"Come on, I wish you success in your studies!"

After closing the door with a snap, Kurosawa Rin wiped the sweat from his forehead as he listened to the footsteps gradually getting smaller and smaller, leaning against the door with his back and letting out a breath.

"Ha... I finally left."

Although I don't know if this guy will actually go to Hawaii to find that so-called training camp, but at least now, he no longer bothers himself.

Asking Narumi to look after the house, Kurosawa Rin hurried towards Ekoda Town, recalling the last route, and arrived at Koizumi Anko's house with ease.

The dwarf butler knocked on the door and opened the door. He was stunned for a moment when he saw Kurosawa Rin, "Please wait outside the door, Rin-sama, I will go back and inform Anko-sama first."

"No..." Kurosawa Rin was surprised. The next second, the door was slammed shut.

Withdrawing his hand, he scratched his head in surprise and waited for the housekeeper to open the door again.

Not long after, the housekeeper opened the door a small crack and said, "I'm sorry, Master Rin, Miss Hongzi is feeling unwell and doesn't want to see anyone. You'd better come back next time."

"Not feeling well?" Kurosawa Rin frowned, "Is Anko-senpai sick? In this case, I would have to go in and take a look."

He was really anxious about not being able to use magic. He couldn't sleep at night without asking for details. He held the crack of the door and tried to open it.

"Senior Hongzi? Are you okay?"

However, the door did not move at all. The dwarf housekeeper's hand was firmly holding the door handle, still maintaining a respectful posture, "Master Rin, you'd better go back."

"Miss Hongzi doesn't want to see anyone. I'm very embarrassed when you're like this."

Kurosawa Rin let go of his hand. This strange butler was really strong and couldn't get in. He could only ask the butler to send a message, "Then please tell Senior Hongzi..."

He briefly talked about his inability to use magic power, and then talked about the gray guardian who was suspected of being a magic tool, then said goodbye to the butler and returned home.

The housekeeper watched Kurosawa Rin leave, closed the door and silently came to Hongzi's bedroom.

In the bedroom, the bed was covered with a gauze curtain, and you could vaguely see a girl lying half-lying inside.

"Is he gone?" The voice was a little weak.

The butler immediately replied, "He has left, Mr. Hongzi. He came here this time to ask you something."

"Huh?" As if he didn't have the energy to say another word, a gentle voice of questioning came from inside.

"It's like this, Lord Rin, had a problem when using magic this time... In addition, he found a guard at the Mihua Shrine, which is suspected to be a magic item..."

After hearing this, the people inside sighed, "Is that all?"

"Yes, Lord Hongzi."

"Alas..." Another lament came from inside, murmuring, "These problems all require the use of eyes... It seems that I won't be able to help him solve it for a long time."

Hongzi's hands unconsciously came to rest on her eyes.

"I don't know how long the punishment will last?"

It was wrapped in thick bandages, but you could still see traces of blood seeping out of it.
