"... The police didn't go to the Sumiyoshi-kai. They think you two are high car thieves."

"Oh, we were really high last night. Sir, is there anything else?"

"Tequila has a mission that you delayed. Go and complete it."

"No problem. Email me later. By the way, sir, does our organization have any chronic poison? The kind that takes effect very slowly, but the detoxification is very simple. It's like a joke."

"What do you want that for?"

"Of course, it's a prank."

"... I'll give it to you after the mission progresses."

"OK, bye sir."

A strange episode. Yingsheng scratched his head and continued shopping according to the list.

In fact, there weren't many things, but Yingsheng had gone to the Dimension Store to order a dozen cheering cards for Xiaolan. It's not ready yet, so he just spent time in the supermarket.

Speaking of which, the organization's influence is so wide. He ran into it at a random place last night.

No wonder the bartender looked like a bad character. I wonder how he is doing now.

Ding Dong!

The email arrived, Yingsheng opened it and took a look. Itakura Taku, software development, the date is approaching...

Urge the R\u0026D personnel?

No, aren't you afraid that he will leave a backdoor for you?

Yingsheng shook his head and made a call:

"Mr. Amuro, there is a new commission."

Chapter 168 Two commissions: Martial Arts Software Poverty Alleviation for Love

For an obviously problematic Amuro Toru, Yingsheng certainly couldn't subcontract the winery task to him.

The new commission that Yingsheng mentioned was:

"The karate competition is about to start. I suddenly had an idea. Can we develop some kind of software to analyze the contestants' attack habits, strength, angle, etc. through videos, and then let the computer calculate the best response strategy?"

Amuro Toru was silent for a while: "With Miss Lan's strength, she doesn't need this."

"Martial arts have no end. Even if she can win the championship this time, it can only mean that she is stronger than the girls in the high school group in Kanto. Listen, this is too limited. Have you heard of Kyogoku Makoto? The newspapers call him the strongest, and he also practices karate."

"...I understand, that means finding a suitable software developer, right?"

Amuro Toru closed his eyes and rubbed his temples. He felt dizzy from looking for clues in the hospital courtyard, and his head swelled even more after hearing Yingsheng's needs.

Forget it, he is a rich young man anyway, so whatever.

"Upfront fee, 500,000, okay?"

"No problem, is it the same card? But this time there should be a commission report, it should be more professional."

"Got it, after I collect the information of the software developers, I will send you a copy, you can choose, and then each node."

"Please, do it as soon as possible, otherwise you will miss this competition."

"... I told Miss Lan that it's okay."

"Yeah, I heard from Xiaolan that Mr. Amuro is much better than her, your vision must be right. I'm just curious to ask, why don't you do a job like a fighting coach, that would be easier than a detective."

"I like to get in touch with different people and things, and the job of a detective is not bad."

Oh, is it also part-time in a milk tea shop?

Yingsheng was thoughtful, this feeling of mixing with all kinds of people seemed like an intelligence officer.

Or a black market broker?

"I see. It's really great to be able to do what you like." Yingsheng smiled. "There is another question. How much did Attorney Hime spend on Mr. Mori this time? Did she come to the hospital? Did she say anything?"

"I don't know the exact amount, but judging from the shocked look on Officer Megure's face, it should be a permanent amount. Attorney Hime didn't come to the hospital. She just asked Officer Megure to tell Mr. Mori to take care of himself."

"Oh, then can you entrust Mr. Amuro to investigate Attorney Hime's financial situation?"

"Of course, you can, but why does Mr. Mizuki care about this?"

"Data is more convincing. I want Xiaolan to see more intuitively what it means to help the poor with love."

"...Okay, no extra charge this time."

After hanging up the phone, Amuro Toru felt more and more strange about Mizuki Yingsheng. His style of doing things...

It's too casual.

Shaking his head helplessly, Amuro Toru continued to search, but he didn't find what he guessed until he walked through every corner of the courtyard. Finally, he walked to the steps of the three buildings, glanced roughly at the courtyard, and turned to go upstairs.

When he arrived at Ward 413, it was 10:40 in the morning. Kudo Shinichi, who went to bed late and got up late, was yawning, holding a knot of hair in his hand, with a puzzled look in his eyes, and was about to turn his head to look at the girl next to him.

When he saw Amuro Toru coming in, Kudo Shinichi's eyes immediately lit up: "Mr. Amuro, did you find it?"

"No."

Amuro Toru shook his head and pulled a chair to sit down beside the bed:

"You think Mr. Mori's hallucination is actually a human factor, maybe it's caused by the negative visual afterimage and the special light-transmitting film, so we didn't see it, but in the end, we didn't find the special vector image and film."

Kudo Shinichi's eyes flickered: "Where is the card of the Kabukicho club?"

"It's an ordinary membership card, standard style, the only difference is that the person on the other end of the phone was told that as long as Maori Kogoro goes there, two muscular brothers will be arranged to give him a bath."

Amuro Toru couldn't help laughing at the end, worthy of Mr. Suigetsu's style.

In order to make things better, Amuro Toru quietly put the card back into Maori Kogoro's pocket, and made an expression that all men understand, which made Maori Kogoro grateful and feel that the world was full of harmony and friendship.

"..."

Kudo Shinichi was speechless: "It seems that I think too much, but does that club have anything to do with Suigetsu? The dot pattern looks like a firefly if you squint your eyes."

"I didn't notice this. If you squint your eyes..." Amuro Toru's heart moved, "Could it be that something that Mr. Maori saw was polarized and can only be seen at a certain angle, and then... it doesn't make sense."

Kudo Shinichi sighed lightly: "It can't really be Uncle Maori's problem, LSD..."

"By the way, I forgot to tell you that I took Mr. Maori to take a urine test again this morning, and it was negative."

"Huh?!"

Kudo Shinichi was shocked: "Negative?"

"Yes, it was tested repeatedly, and finally Director Fukuda personally apologized to Mr. Maori and admitted that it was the hospital's mistake last night."

"..."

In addition to the death of Yamada Okao last time, the hospital's accident rate is quite high.

Hiss——

Thinking about it this way, it won't be done by the mastermind again, right?

His purpose is still unclear, but from Uncle Mori's side, he seems to just want to punish Uncle Mori severely, but he doesn't want him to really die or be disabled.

So the previous LSD was just a bad joke on Uncle Mori while misleading the police?

If that's the case, plus the smiling and crying faces, that guy really has a bad taste.

"But in this case, isn't it more likely that the hallucination was artificially created?" Kudo Shinichi thought, "Could it be that someone cleared the evidence before us?"

Amuro Toru shook his head: "Kudo-kun, if you think like this, things will never end."

Reasoning, after all, depends on evidence.

"Sorry."

Kudo Shinichi certainly understands this principle, but he just has no evidence, so he can only keep thinking about it...

"In that case, will Uncle Mori be forced to be sent to a mental hospital?" he asked.

"It shouldn't be. Officer Megure is willing to vouch for him. Mitsuo Shirai's family will not pursue the matter. Miss Aida is applying to become his special guardian... Well, it's just a common name. In fact, it's an agreement signed with the Metropolitan Police Department." Amuro Toru said.

"Miss Aida?"

Kudo Shinichi looked strange and instantly became suspicious: "Is there anything wrong with her?"

Amuro Toru smiled: "She was hired by Mr. Mizuki at a high salary."

"That Mizuki guy..."

Kudo Shinichi muttered softly. That guy is not only good to Xiaolan now, but also to the entire Mori family.

And he...

He tilted his head slightly...

Chapter 169 Countdown to Conan's Birth

The girl next to him was sleeping peacefully, but there was no sign of waking up. Kudo Shinichi looked quite worried. After knowing about the love hormone last night, this worry was complicated and even apologetic.

Was his appearance a bit inappropriate?

Did he cause trouble to her because of the medicine?

Amuro Toru also followed Kudo Shinichi's line of sight and vaguely guessed what Kudo Shinichi was thinking.

He originally came for Yuzuki Kiyoko. After discovering that Kudo Shinichi had an abnormal reaction after seeing the report last night, he dragged the doctor to another ward for a private talk. He then secretly investigated and found out about oxytocin.

But he actually wanted to say that the thing was useful, but there was no need to overly doubt himself.

If there was no emotion at all, it would be useless even if the matchmaker personally tied the red thread, let alone drugs.

Besides, Kudo-kun, you are not infected with that kind of thing now. Look at your eyes, are they empty?

Thinking of this, Amuro Toru immediately spoke:

"How is Kiyoko-kun?"

"The doctor said that there is nothing wrong, probably just due to physical reasons. The effect of the medicine will take a long time to wear off, and there will be no long-term effects. The latest should be tonight."

"Can I ask? Why did Kudo-kun suddenly want to check Kiyoko-kun's blood sample last night?"

Kudo Shinichi turned around: "No reason."

"Sorry, I have no ill intentions, I'm just curious." Seeing Kudo Shinichi looking at him, Amuro Toru smiled and said: "After all, you look like a couple, but asking the police to check blood samples seems to be suspecting her, which is really confusing."

Kudo Shinichi He smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Don't talk about lovers. Kiyoko will probably be troubled when she wakes up."

"Hmm..."

Amuro Toru pondered for two seconds: "In fact, the newspaper has published the details of Yukina Nami's case, and two people have commissioned me to investigate this matter. I am actually quite familiar with it. Kudo-kun, you should have suspected that Kiyoko-kun was the mastermind behind all the events before, right?"

Kudo Shinichi frowned slightly: "Mr. Amuro, are you very concerned about this?"

Amuro Toru nodded in his heart. Of course, he came for this, but he didn't show it on his face:

"I was also involved in the case last night. Of course, I want to investigate it clearly."

"Ah..."

This is an irrefutable fact. Kudo Shinichi sighed and said, "Then you should also know that there is very little evidence of the existence of the mastermind behind the scenes."

"In fact, I don't know."

Amuro Toru certainly knew, but he was more concerned about the other side: "I am confused, why are there so many people surrounding Kiyoko-kun, is there any secret hidden in her?"

Kudo Shinichi looked at him strangely: "Are you asking why? Isn't the answer obvious?"

Appearance.

Are there other reasons?

Amuro Toru certainly knew this, but he still didn't believe that Shirley and Vermouth investigated a high school girl for this kind of thing, so he shook his head and said:

"Of course I believe that ordinary people come because of beauty, but if the mastermind behind the scenes that Kudo-kun is thinking of is the big Tengu who provoked the police in Tokyo Bay last night, I don't think he will act for such a shallow reason."

"That's not clear."

Kudo Shinichi actually had the same doubts about the motives of the mastermind behind the scenes, but he couldn't figure it out countless times, so he changed the subject at this time:
