"Look at me? What do you mean by that? Conan's words made Conan stunned for a moment, looking at me in bewilderment.

"Well~ If I'm not mistaken, the little ghost inside is going to stay with me for a long time, and he won't be able to leave for at least a while." My eyes stayed on a report on TV, and I shook my head helplessly, sure enough, no matter how I thought about it, I felt so troublesome......

"Huh?" Conan turned his head sideways, looking at the news on the TV in confusion.

It was a news about an accidental fire in a Chinese teahouse, which caught fire for unknown reasons and killed many people, which is not a small incident.

Conan looked at the teahouse on the screen in a daze, and suddenly realized something: "Huh? This place ......"

"Well, that's right, it's the tea house we went to together that day, and it's actually the industry of Night Charm." I nodded, confirming Conan's conjecture.

"Nightglow?" Conan was puzzled by this new term.

"An underground organization in China, of course, they also have branches in Japan, and their name is Yoshikawakai, you should know." I explained.

"Yoshikawa will?" Conan was stunned for a moment, obviously knowing the name as well, "You mean that underworld organization?" ”

"That's right." I nodded.

"Then this ......" suddenly thought of something, and Conan's gaze turned back to the screen of the TV.

"Heh, accidental fire? Do you believe it? How can it be so simple......" I smiled faintly, but the smile was slightly mocking.

At any time, people's desires are great, and although they don't understand it deeply, it's easy to see what these people think about the Yoshikawa Society, but it's just that they're getting stronger, and their restless hearts are moving, and they no longer want to be controlled by the headquarters on the other side......

"The people of the Yoshikawa Society have long wanted to be independent, you know, in China, the underworld is not as legal as Japan, and after tasting the sweetness here, those people in the Yoshikawa Society are selfish, after all, they are controlled by others and themselves, but there are two completely different feelings, that tea house is also a common contact point between the Night Charm and the Yoshikawa Society, and now that this has happened, the people who died must be their own people."

"Do you mean to say......" Hearing my words, Conan's eyes flashed, and he slowly frowned: "This is not an accident, but a deliberate killing?" ”

"Stop...... I know what you're thinking, but, our great detective, don't think about exposing it. Seeing that Conan had another dangerous idea of wanting to try, I had to stop him: "Why do you think those underworld people have existed for so long?" Just because they have infinite monetary benefits? Oh, of course not, the reason why they have been able to gain a long-term foothold is not only because of money transactions, but because they are all there in gambling** and political struggles. The police? Oh, to put it mildly, the police and the underworld have long been in a state of mutually beneficial coexistence, do you think you can fight an organization alone? ”

Looking at Conan, who paused, I paused to give him space to think, and at the same time I felt a little amused.

That's right, the Japanese underworld is really a very peculiar existence.

If someone causes trouble in the streets, the triad members usually deal with the troublemaker before the police arrive, and if there is a murder, the mafia will try their best to investigate and hand over the murderer to the police. Before each raid, senior members of the triad will recuse themselves in advance, and for the sake of the police's face, they will even leave a few firearms for the police to confiscate.

In fact, not only in Japan, but also in most places, the way of making a living for the underworld is actually to find a third way between the rule of man and the rule of law, and they play a role as a mediator in society, although the way of existence is very sensitive, but it is indispensable.

Many gangsters don't think in terms of the traditional "black and white" theory, but rather a gray area in between.

However, this is probably also unacceptable for Conan......

After waiting for a while, looking at Conan, who had no intention of giving up at all, I sighed and had to continue: "Moreover, take 10,000 steps back, even if there is no relationship between them as I said, do you think that it is just an infighting between the underworld, and it doesn't even hurt civilians, will the police care about this kind of thing?" No, it's too late for them to laugh, they will just sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight. ”

"Damn, do you just leave them alone?"

"Leave them alone? Oh, don't worry...... It won't be left unattended......" Looking at Conan, who stood up excitedly, I tilted my head: "How can I say that it is also a crime, although there is no reaction yet, but, when this kind of thing happens, do you think Night Charm will not care?" ”

Tilting my head and looking out the window, I smiled reassuringly: "Heh, presumably, that old guy has already made a move." ”

"The old guy?"

"Well~ it's the daddy of the little ghost inside......" I stood up and gestured in the direction of the bedroom, "How can I say that my son is still in Japan, no matter how much I don't like it, I won't leave it alone, that guy is that kind of person." ”

"So......" Conan nodded, falling silent, not knowing what he was thinking......

I looked at Conan, and knowing so much information, Conan couldn't digest it for a while, so I didn't bother him, but leaned back and leaned comfortably on the couch.

Not...... So sleepy......

But...... I always feel as if I have overlooked something, but I can't remember it for a while......

Blinking tiredly, I finally gave up thinking, stopped resisting sleepiness, closed my eyes, and fell asleep......

…………

"Na ......" I don't know how long it took, Conan finally sorted out his thoughts, raised his head, and was about to call his brother, but was stunned to find that the boy opposite him had already fallen asleep at some point.

I looked down at the time, and before I knew it, it was already late at night......

Conan shook his head and looked at the sleeping child in front of him, revealing a helpless and doting smile.

This is Kudo Night Talk.,It's the younger brother of his own Kudo Shinichi who has been missing for many years.,Although he has become a killer that he can't tolerate.,Although there are many principled things that can't be agreed with.,However,This can't hide the fact that he is connected to him by blood.。

Maybe it's really the difference in experience, which leads to a lot of gaps between himself and the concept that Night Yu adheres to, but, regardless of the past, just looking at the future, Conan believes that one day, the child in front of him will still change back to the gentle Night Talk.

Not to mention anything else, at least, the smile on Mochizuki night has become more than when I first met, isn't it?

Conan couldn't help but laugh again when he thought of this.

"What are you laughing at?"

A voice came, and Conan looked at the boy who suddenly opened his eyes, stunned.

"No, nothing ......"

"Really?" I looked at Conan suspiciously, and sat up.

"Ah...... That, did I quarrel with you? Conan scratched his cheek with one finger in embarrassment, and didn't laugh too loudly......

"No, it's nothing, it's just that I'm not used to people around when I'm sleeping." I shook my head, glanced at the time, and then turned to look at Conan, "It's not early, aren't you going back?" Dr. Asasa is worried, right? ”
