The Phantom Thief of Heart! But Conan

"Anyway, that's it." Mao Lilan smiled awkwardly, carefully observing her best friend's expression, "If you think about it this way, we're going to have a lot of people..."

"Well..." After pondering for a moment, Suzuki Sonoko tapped her palm, "Okay, I'm going to ask Karasawa, and please be sure to invite Akechi-kun! This is an indispensable part of our team!"

"Hey, Yuanzi..." Noting that her best friend was not depressed because of the change in schedule, she was inexplicably excited. Mao Lilan held her forehead wordlessly, "The originally scheduled trip is about to become a tour group. What are you doing? …”

"A tour group is just a tour group!" Yuanzi waved his hand nonchalantly and said boldly, "Even if I pay for all the expenses, it's not a big deal, not to mention they all solve the expense problem by themselves. Oh, imagine that scene, I walked in front, followed by a group of handsome guys with different styles and handsomeness, walking forward talking and laughing, my God, it was just like...!"

"Like a rich woman taking a group of cowherds out for shopping?" Conan, expressionless, commented ruthlessly.

Strangely, all the friends around this guy Tangze seem to be good-looking.

Oh, by the way, if he hadn't happened to overhear the conversation between him and Mao Lilan and pinched his thigh hard to make him restrain himself, he might have called Hattori all the way from Osaka.

Really, it’s just skiing, it’s not a special anniversary or anything like that, so why bother to mobilize so much?

"What nonsense are kids talking about!" Suzuki Sonoko, whose fantasy was interrupted, dunked hard, "And real cowherds are not as handsome as them!"

Mao Lilan, who was about to reprimand the naughty child who spoke out loud, couldn't help but stare blankly at Suzuki Sonoko with Conan, who was covering his head.

Hey, hey, you seem to have said something very serious, Sonoko...

"Huh? What kind of cowherd? What are you talking about?" Tang Ze, who heard their conversation clearly from a distance, relied on his expression management ability to not laugh out loud. He pretended to have just heard it and held the meal. Pan walked to their table and said, "Here, you guys have lunch."

"Wow..." Before lifting the chopsticks, Suzuki Sonoko exclaimed in a small voice, "It looks really good."

"It will also taste very good." Tang Ze smiled confidently, "Although my taste is a bit different... but everyone seems to like the various dishes I cook."

Next to them, Mao Lilan and Conan, who had experienced Tangze's cooking skills, had already begun to eat without saying a word.

Karasawa, who stuffed his mouth with sweet and sour pork, looked at them sympathetically.

It's really pitiful. I'm so immersed in eating a bowl of rice. It seems like I really can't eat any Chinese food in Japan.

"Oh, by the way, about that, going skiing." After taking a few bites to satisfy his craving for fragrance, Mao Lilan raised his head and brought the off-track topic back firmly, "You have already invited them. Are you ready? Yuanzi doesn’t object, you can invite more friends to play together, skiing, it’s more fun to play with more people.”

Yuanzi, the person who organized the trip, didn't object, so she had no objection.

Moreover, although Sonoko just said a lot of wisecracks, she must have considered Karasawa's situation just like her.

During the accident where she and Tang Ze lost their memory, they had the opportunity to glimpse into Tang Ze's past life, so it was difficult not to feel a desire to take care of him.

Traveling with friends was an unimaginable and untouchable experience for him in the past.

"Oh, I asked everyone, and they are all very interested." Tang Ze smiled, "Except for Akechi-kun who said that he had a commission in hand and might not be able to come in time, everyone else agreed. You guys have no objections. It’s great, it’s a ski resort, it’s interesting just thinking about it…”

"Skiing? Ask me to go skiing?" Toru Amuro frowned and looked at Karasawa with difficulty speaking, "Without any mission?"

Is this guy serious about going on a trip or something?

Although both of them are now undercover agents who have multiple jobs and are extremely busy, Karasawa has a cover of "playing Karasawa Akira as Kumail" after all, and he has every reason to spend some time. Ordinary student life.

As for Amuro Toru himself, whether it is the police or an organization, it is obviously not a workplace that can have any legal holidays.

One of the important reasons why he can exploit the subordinates of Group Zero so calmly and without any shame is that he is the one who really works harder than anyone else and bears the greatest pressure.

For him who doesn't get enough sleep all year round, traveling with no purpose and purely for relaxation and leisure is simply incredible.

"Belmod will also go." Before Amuro Toru refused, Tang Zeshi added calmly, "Maybe there will be an unexpected harvest. You also know that there are many tails following her, organized, The identity of... Chris Wynyard of various countries’ intelligence agencies is really too conspicuous.”

Amuro, who was about to refuse without hesitation, let out a breath held in his throat.

The investigation against Belmod was reaching a critical point. Relying on the connections he had accumulated over many years of working in the organization, he had slowly figured out some of the connections. It was indeed a good time to test Belmode.

He did not have a suitable task at hand at the moment, and Belmod, who was also a mystic, was not easy to meet by chance.

But Karasawa was exactly the opposite. Karasawa, who tinkered with a whole set of scripts, maintained a friendly relationship with Bermod that had a certain degree of tacit understanding and implicit cooperation.

Thinking of the script, Toru Amuro stiffened instinctively.

"So, does Belmod have the same destination as ours?" Toru Amuro's already dark face turned a little darker, and he crossed his arms, "You mean, I have to maintain this throughout the entire journey..."

"Yes, Mr. Tohru, are you happy?" Karasawa grinned, winked maliciously, and asked narrowly, "Have you figured out how to play the role of a guardian who secretly abuses children, Mr. Tohru?"

After enduring it for a while, Toru Amuro finally couldn't hold it back and slapped his head on Karasawa's forehead: "Give me a little more, I'm the culprit."

Unlike the previous two times when he had to act in front of Belmode, Karasawa didn't need to keep up Kumail's airs this time. He could relax and talk to people in his daily identity along the way.

However, this is very challenging for Toru Amuro.

While he will have to perform the image of a gentle waiter in front of other children, he will also have to make Belmode fully feel his hidden hostility and targeting towards Kumel...

The more I think about it, the more trouble it becomes.

"Don't think of Belmod as someone to fool just because you have grasped some of her weaknesses. She is also a keen and careful person. I participated in your trip for no reason, and she will also get up. Suspicious." He expressed his refusal tactfully, and Toru Amuro didn't want to join in the fun anymore.

Is this a must-go for skiing?

There are many opportunities to test Belmode, not less than a day or two, but accompanying Tang Ze in a stage play or something...

"It doesn't matter, you have a good reason." Karasawa threw a hook confidently, "Her recent activities in Japan are too obvious, and other forces who have discovered her identity are investigating her."

Chris Wynyard...an American, who would be the intelligence agency that would notice her identity?

There is no need for Karasawa to specifically say this sentence. Just by looking at Amuro Toru's sharp and dark eyes for a moment, you can tell what direction he understood.

Well, he didn’t fool anyone anyway, right? Look, there is really an FBI in this car, and there are more than one!

In his heart, he apologized to Akai Shuichi and Judy, who didn't know that they had been sold for a good price. Karasawa quickly continued the topic as if nothing had happened: "Besides, it's the same for you to just fabricate a reason to conflict with me. Yes. However, if this is the case, you have to be careful, as Belmod has plotted against you in order to protect himself."

To be precise, it was not to protect herself, but to protect the secret she shared with Kumel, and thus to protect Conan and the others.

The reason why when Kyousuke Futo's incident came out, Karasawa was not worried that his behavior of sending people to the police would arouse suspicion or embarrassment in the organization. As long as nothing happens, Belmode will always be inclined to keep Kumel.

Not to mention that the words of the two Riddlers concealed signals that the Dog Organization is not a human being or we should rebel. No matter how outrageous he did to the interests of the organization, Belmod would still be in the mood to open the champagne. Secretly happy about it.

I don’t know what new evils the organizations in this world have caused, but it is obvious that Belmod’s disgust and even hatred for them is deeper than in the original plot.

"I have my own way." Toru Amuro nodded, calming down his emotions and lowered his voice, "I will go on this trip."

"Although, I don't think my identity will be exposed, but you kid, you just use us as bait to attract bourbon. You are really not afraid of causing a scene." Shuichi Akai, who was sitting in the model shop, closed the door. Holding the newspaper in his hand, he glanced helplessly at Tang Ze in front of him.

As mentioned before, because I felt that the resume of a model shop owner was very suitable for action, the identity of Sohisa Iwai provided by Karasawa was used by the FBI's operations team for finishing.

They actually took over a shop that was originally a model shop, but quietly changed the owner.

I don’t know if it’s some kind of destiny or a strange plot function, but this store is really located on Central Street in Shibuya. Although the location is different from the one in the game, it still has a lot of internal flavor.

Karasawa, who had to help Akai Shuichi adjust his disguise from time to time, almost lost his temper when he first stepped into this place.

He also asked Akai Shuichi why he chose this shop.

"...The rent in Shibuya is not cheap, why did you choose this place?" Looking at the shop that was almost replicating the scene, Karasawa tried his best to suppress the twitching of his eyebrows and asked as calmly as possible.

"It is indeed not cheap, but our activity funds are still sufficient. Judy's apartment and the teaching position at Didan High School also cost us a lot of energy and expenses. This investment is very normal. As for Shibuya... …Of course it’s because we are in this location and already have some original merchant resources.” Of course, Shuichi Akai looked at Karasawa strangely and said, “You should also know about this.”

"Oh, right..." Thinking of his little Beetle, which had been driven so many kilometers in just a few months and was covered with scars, Tangze patted his forehead in hindsight.

In short, after the completion of this small model shop, as their assistant in Japan, Karasawa also received the permission to enter and use this base freely.

They even allowed Tangze to temporarily use this place as a safe house, allowing him to freely access the communication equipment and medical facilities in the stronghold, as well as a certain amount of guns and ammunition, etc.

There is no psychological burden on Tangze when using it.

This is not entirely nepotism because he is a relative of Akai Shuichi. It can probably be seen as part of the reward for Thomas Sindora's information, and it can be seen as the FBI's emphasis on his value.

"You have been keeping an eye on Belmod. Even if I hadn't mentioned this, I guess he would have found you soon." Tangze smiled begging for mercy. Knowing that he was in the wrong for not saying hello to them in advance, Tangze raised his hand and He raised his hands in a gesture of surrender, "What's more, there is a high probability that he will not discover your identity. I am very confident in my disguise skills."

"I do have a disguised identity, but if he finds out about Judy...forget it, you are right." Thinking of Amuro Toru's targeted hostility, Akai Shuichi shook his head, pinched the bridge of his nose, and admitted that Karasawa There is some truth to that.

If it were just the FBI, Toru Amuro might be disgusted, but considering his position in front of the organization, he might not necessarily take any drastic action.

If it were him, it would be a different matter.

This rotten apple lady is involved in her own affairs in Japan, which is the best time for them to implement their plan. If they miss this time, this clever disguiser will most likely disappear into the vast sea of ​​people again.

Not to mention Toru Amuro, who has already confirmed his identity as a Japanese police officer, even if Bourbon is really a loyal member of the organization, they will never give up this opportunity for him.

The special thing about Belmod is so great that it seems like you can peel off the cocoons from her body and decipher the true intentions of the organization...

"Besides, I will also call Sister Mingmei and Xiao Ai... Relax a little, Brother Xiuyi. Isn't it nice to have the opportunity to enjoy the long-lost family atmosphere?" Tangze approached the counter with a playful smile.

Akai Shuichi sighed, patted Karasawa's head with a bright smile, and did not refute his persistence.

He should have been there to support Judy, who was keeping an eye on the "newly intelligent" Judy, but Karasawa provided him with a more reasonable reason, and there was no reason to refuse.

He could never refuse Tang Ze, especially when this boy put his uncle's face in front of him.

Unlike Shiho Miyano, who was always locked in a laboratory doing scientific research, he did not have so many opportunities to come into contact with the Karasawa couple during his years in the organization.

However, they recognized his identity at a glance, and after understanding his intentions, they chose to take the risk and lend a helping hand to introduce him in a more reasonable way than he originally imagined. into the organization.

During the six years of being undercover, he and his uncle had always maintained a silent understanding.

Although their relationship was not discovered by anyone in the organization, and they did not have much contact and could only see each other once or twice when they crossed paths, this did not affect their important status in his heart.

The identity records that were quietly erased, the warning windows that popped up accurately and timely when he secretly entered the intranet using someone else's identity, and the vacancies in his duty that he always ran into when delivering intelligence. …

They were all protecting each other in their own way, and he regarded them as relatives. After he had been away from his family and lived alone in a foreign country for many years, he suddenly felt the silent warmth in the midst of the most dangerous mission.

Therefore, there are many requests for Karasawa, such as the matter of swallowing Hayato, such as assisting him in creating suitable identity information, such as this time, using his identity as bait, etc...

He was often dumbfounded, but he could never refuse these requests.

Tangze, a clever little liar, clearly understands his true bottom line and principles. Even if he occasionally does something out of line, he will always be careful not to offend.

Hey, this is the child of the Tangze family...

In order for him to survive in this world and live a happy and lively life even if he is alone, his uncle and aunt have made so many efforts, so the fact that Tang Ze is an extremely special child seems to have changed. It's so reasonable.

"Tell me the time and place, and I will get there in time." Touching the strap around his neck that was very close to his skin color, and the voice changer of the controller hidden by the realistic tattoo skin patch, Akai Shu nodded and started again. He leaned into the comfortable office chair behind the counter and raised the newspaper, "As for Judy... I can only guarantee that she will try not to wear high heels when she hears the news and kicks you."

————

So two days later, when Suzuki Sonoko and Mao Lilan arrived at the bus station carrying large and small bags of ski equipment, they were greeted by a crowd of people standing in front of the station.

"Uh..." Suzuki Sonoko made a small sound of exclamation. She glanced at Karasawa, who was standing in the crowd, still easily carrying a commuting bag and waving to them, and whispered, "Recently, skiing Has it become very popular? It’s strange, it’s not the season yet.”

"Maybe, they are going to other destinations." Mao Lilan shrank his neck and guessed in a low voice.
