One evening.

The sudden drop in temperature makes it feel a little chilly.

Ayumi hasn't left yet.

Standing in front of the store, I watched as Mori Kogoro, Ran, Conan, and three other men got into the car and left along the road.

Raise your head again and look at the gloomy sky.

"It doesn't look good, but on the day of camping, it won't be a problem, right?"

She was a little worried.

Finally, Qingming agreed to go together, if the camping plan is shelved because of the weather, it will really cry.

"Don't worry, there won't be a problem."

Qingming walked out of the store.

Standing next to the little girl, he smiled and rubbed her head, messing up the soft strands of hair.

He seemed to enjoy doing so.

Maybe I think it's a more intimate act to touch your head.

Let's not talk about that.

looked in the direction where Conan and the others had left, and thought silently for a while.

Ayumi looked up at him.

"Is it really okay?"

"yes, really."

Qingming nodded affirmatively.

As a Taoist priest, what you can do is not just ask for rain.

In the final analysis, the act of "asking for rain" is essentially changing the weather, and preventing rain and snow is also changing the weather.

If you can ask for rain, other nature can do it.

So it's hard to say anything else, if you want a good weather, Qingming can still be guaranteed.

And Ayumi, who received an accurate answer, immediately smiled.

"That's great!"

“……”

Qingming looked at her.

Smiled again and touched the little girl's head again.

Therefore, it is really easy for children to be satisfied, so it seems that they are happy and carefree every day.

"The shopkeeper."

Azusa Enomoto came out of the store.

The maid's costume has been changed out and put back on normal clothes.

It's time to get off work.

"I'll leave first if there's nothing else to do."

"Hmm...... Help bring the little girl home. ”

"Hey!"

"Well, Ernie Sauce, Ernie Sauce, goodbye."

Ayumi waved towards Qingming.

After Qingming also smiled and waved his hand, he left with Enomoto Azusa.

In the coffee shop, Qingming was the only one left.

Gray Hara's mourning isn't there.,Although I usually come to the coffee shop with Ayumi after school.,But today it's not.,It seems that it's because there was a problem in the experiment.,So I went to Dr. Agasa.。

Dr. Asa is also very talented and can help a lot in this area of research.

Study this kind of thing......

"Whatever, it has nothing to do with me anyway."

Stretch your waist.

I walked back to the store, sat at the counter, and looked through what Kobayashi-kun had written.

"As always...... Kobayashi-kun really doesn't have any talent! ”

……

Night.

It was snowing.

The lights are on, the neon is flickering, and the snowflakes are constantly falling, which seems to give the world a dreamlike artistic conception.

But perhaps this is just an illusion.

Conan and Orchid, walking on their way home.

They came out with Mori Kogoro and a few other clients, and came to the hotel to find a software engineer called Itakura or something.

It doesn't matter.

At least for Conan now, he doesn't have much energy to care about who the deceased is, because there are things that he cares about more than this case.

That is, an organization.

This software engineer called Itakura seems to have some kind of deal with that organization, which Conan deduced through some clues.

Therefore, taking the opportunity to solve the case, I made a copy of the diary left by the other party on the disk.

Mori Kogoro and the Twilight Police Department went to the Metropolitan Police Department.

He and Xiaolan walked back to the detective agency, and it wasn't too far away anyway, and it wasn't too late.

Let's not talk about that.

When I was halfway there, I met a man.

A、I've met a man several times before for various reasons.。

Shuichi Akai.

I had encountered a lot of things before, and I had made a record, so I learned this man's name from the police.

At this time, I learned another thing here at Xiaolan.

"I met Shinichi when I went to New York, and asked me if I had ever seen a neon man with silver hair and a stubble on his face, but he wasn't a suspicious person, because the guy he came with at the time was wearing a jacket with the words FBI printed on it."

That's what Xiaolan said.

This makes Conan very concerned, if he is with someone from the FBI, then the other party is also likely to be a member of the FBI.

However, there is no way to confirm this at this time.

Even if he is, but as a member of the FBI, why would he appear on Neon's side?

You must know that the FBI, that is, the FBI, is mainly responsible for the affairs of Eagle Sauce's house, and the outside affairs are generally handled by the CIA, that is, the CIA.

The FBI ran to Neon's side......

Is it a vacation?

Or is it investigating?

I don't understand.

There isn't much information, and with this alone, there's no way to figure out the identity of the other party.

So Conan didn't think much about it for the time being.

Go back to the detective agency with Xiaolan.

But while Xiaolan was not paying attention, she left a note and left directly.

Went downstairs.

I wanted to go straight to Dr. Asasa's side, but when I looked at it, I saw that the lights were still on, so I pushed open the door and walked in.

"Qingming."

Because he has cooperated with Qingming, in the absence of outsiders, he did not pretend to be tender and called "Brother Qingming", but called him by his name.

Generally speaking, it is more appropriate to call Hattori by his surname, and when he is called Hattori Heiji, he is also called "Hattori".

But he didn't know Qingming's surname.

Let's not talk about that.

Although it is a cooperative relationship, Qingming only promised to help, and he will not help with anything, so there are some things that do not need to be said to Qingming.

Just say what Qingming is helping you with.

"There's a man named Shuichi Akai who can help me find out his identity, okay?"

Conan looked at Qingming sitting at the counter with a look of anticipation.

It is precisely because Qingming's identity is a mystery, he has unknown skills, and there may be a powerful force behind him, so he will ask Qingming for help.

Now, it is the time to count on clarity.

Qingming is in.

Suddenly hearing Conan's words, it seemed that he couldn't react a little.

Raised his head to look at him, staring at each other for a long time.

"Oh!"

It seemed that he had finally come to his senses and nodded directly.

"Yes."

"Then thank you, tell me the result as soon as possible, I'll go first......"

“FBI。”

“…… Huh? ”

Conan, who was just about to leave, couldn't help but be stunned when he heard Qingming's words.

"What?"

"Akai Shuichi, FBI investigator, good at marksmanship, sniping, has strong reasoning skills, intelligence gathering, analysis skills, left-handed, once successfully infiltrated an undercover agent in an organization, codenamed Rye, after his identity was revealed, he escaped from the organization, and returned to Neon not long ago, and is currently trying to contact the organization, and it is obvious that the mission to return to Neon is to deal with the organization."

“……”

Conan looked at Qingming dumbfounded.

Qingming is calm.

After saying this in one breath, he lowered his head again and continued to look at what he was holding.

Compared with those messy things, Xiaolinjun's is more attractive, anyway, Qingming was attracted.

How to say that......

Maybe it's "tasteless food, it's a pity to throw it away"? Or maybe "there is a true meaning in this, and I have forgotten to distinguish it"?

Well, it doesn't matter.

It took a long time for Conan to come back from his astonishment and look at Qingming in disbelief.

"You...... How do you know? ”

It's weird.

As soon as he opened his mouth to ask, Qingming told the other party's basic information, as if he had prepared it a long time ago.

Don't you need to look into it?

Or does Qingming actually know a lot of information? Is it the legendary intelligence monger?

So how do you know?

Investigate it yourself? Or is there really a huge force behind him?

“……”

Qingming's face was expressionless.

Just looked up and glanced at him.

Then he lowered his head and continued the flip move.

Conan scratched his head.

Seeing that Qingming didn't plan to say anything, he originally wanted to continue to ask, but finally gave up.

"Thank you, this has been very useful to me."

Thank you.

He then left the café and headed in the direction of Dr. Asasa's house.

He had more important things to do.
