"Or do you think they have blood on their hands...... Are all necessary sacrifices? ”

I liked Conan's tangled and painful expression very much, and Yoko Okino smiled and said her long-brewing words.

Don't you like justice? Aren't you protecting the innocent?

Are the people who were killed by your good brothers to gain the trust of the Order?

And you, the good brothers who killed the innocent, can they still represent justice?

If not, if not, then should they be damned?

If not, then your justice and kindness are a little too much of an American imperialism?

Those who are close to you, even if they have blood on their hands, are justice, and those who have nothing to do with you, even if they are innocently killed, are necessary sacrifices......

This kind of American imperialist standard is really far ahead.

"No, it's not! I didn't say that! ”

As if he had suffered a blow to the chest, Conan immediately shouted and denied:

"It's just Mr. Amuro, and Mr. Akai...... They ......"

"Do they deserve to die?" Yoko Okino asked with a smile as she propped her chin up.

"I, they ......"

Thinking was a little confused, Conan really wanted to say no-shouldn't at the moment, but he couldn't say anything.

Yes, in his eyes, whether it is Toru Amuro, who is still undercover in the organization, or Shuichi Akai, who has left the organization, they undoubtedly represent the righteous forces that confront the organization, and they are nameless heroes of justice, who are not damned.

But where he couldn't see, in order to gain the trust of the organization, in order to climb to the top of the organization, their hands were stained with the blood of many innocent people......

Although it was forced, it was ...... Whether they are active or forced, the fact that their hands are not clean cannot be changed......

"If you can't answer it, then let's ask the other way around."

Looking at Conan, Yoko Okino once again threw out a heart-wrenching question.

"Little detective, do you think I deserve to die?"

"You, you ......"

This question made Conan's chest feel like he had been hit hard again.

"Well, before you answer, I need to say it first."

Appreciating Conan's painful expression, Yoko Okino said with a smile:

"Because of my special relationship with the old man, I naturally gained absolute trust, so I didn't need to do things that deliberately dirty my hands to show my loyalty to the organization.

I've been a codename member of the organization since the beginning...... By the way, I also chose the code name plum wine myself, mainly because my mother, who died early, liked to drink this kind of wine very much during her lifetime, so I used it by the way.

Because of this relationship, my hands are much cleaner than those good brothers of yours, and I really haven't killed the innocent people you think, of course, this is also because they are not qualified, and they don't feel the feeling of killing.

I have killed a lot of traitors and undercover agents in the organization over the years, but as I said before, they are not clean people in the first place, and there is no reason why they can't be killed.

Little detective, you say, if I kill them, is it a way to do it? Am I doing good deeds and accumulating virtue, should I live a long life? ”

"I ......"

Yoko Okino's question was extremely striking.

Conan wanted to say no, but if he did, where should Toru Amuro and Shuichi Akai be placed?

They also have human lives on their hands, except for the identity of undercover agents, the things they do in the organization are actually not fundamentally different from plum wine, and even in some aspects, they may indeed not be as clean as plum wine......

As Yoko Okino said, she is responsible for dealing with undercover agents and traitors in the organization.

And with Regel's trust and respect for her, ordinary little minions are not worthy of letting her do it.

What she needs to deal with must have a certain weight in the organization.

In this way, we go back to square one.

Those members who can have a certain status in the organization, whether they are traitors or undercover agents, they can't have clean hands.

The only substantive difference between the traitors and undercover agents who have climbed to this position is probably only the difference in the forces they really serve......

Then, Yoko Okino killed these people, should it be regarded as evil? Or do good?

If she deserves to die for evil, what about the undercover agents who are not cleaner than her?

Is it possible to regard the lives of the truly innocent people who are used to win the trust of the organization as a necessary sacrifice without any qualms, without any guilt, and even as a matter of course, under the guise of "I am here to eradicate the organization"?

So, what's the difference between them and the organization?

In this way, isn't the justice that Conan has always insisted on really becoming the standard of American imperialism, as Yoko Okino said?

Conan felt like he was messed up, his mind was messed up.

It was as if he had been led into a quagmire that could not be broken through by plum wine, and the only answer that could take him out of this quagmire was something he himself could not accept......

Yes, it is enough to tell Yoko Okino that the innocent people who were sacrificed for the sake of the trust organization were all necessary sacrifices.

As long as you say that, Mr. Amuro, Mr. Akai, and the other agents who are undercover in the organization, they are "innocent", they have no innocent blood on their hands, and they can still be those unsung heroes who deserve to be praised......

However, Conan couldn't live his heart.

He couldn't say anything like that.

"Confused, huh?"

Yoko Okino stretched out her finger and poked his face, which had become tangled and twisted, and happily comforted:

"Actually, little detective, you don't need to be so entangled, there are countless big truths in this world, instead of caring about these rules and regulations, you should live your life well.

Like I joined the organization, do you think it's for what? Justice? Evil? The thrill of killing?

No, no, no, these are not, the real purpose of joining the organization is actually only one from beginning to end, and that is to do things for the old man. ”

Speaking of this, Yoko Okino sighed softly.

"It's a pity, the old man's health has not been very good, and it seems to have continued to deteriorate in the past few years, although I don't know the specific reason, but presumably Shirley's research should be his last attempt......

Now that Shirley has found it, the research is about to be restarted, and whether it fails or succeeds in the end, the old man probably won't spend any more effort on this organization.

You know? When I was given the task of dealing with Bourbon and Kiel, the old man also hoped that I would quit the organization as soon as possible.

Although he didn't say it at the time, I guessed a little, and he was probably not very confident in the results of the study, so he was already preparing for the retreat for those of us.

The old man has been very good to me since he was a child, and at this time, I should naturally do something for him...... So, Kiel. ”

Picking up the pistol, Yoko Okino aimed at the back of Mizu's head.

"Although the old man didn't care, and even allowed me to save you, but I thought about it, but I still felt that it was inappropriate.

After all, you are the one who has had many direct contacts with the old man, and you actually have no loyalty to the old man, what you care about is always your lovely brother, let you live, I really don't worry.

Of course, that's not to say there's anything wrong with you, you just made the best choice for you, and so did I.

Don't worry, your brother will be fine, after all, the old man is a man who keeps his promises, and unlike you, that kid really doesn't know anything about you and the organization, and if you let it go, it's not a big deal. ”

Hearing Yoko Okino's words, Mizumi Wupi, who originally had the intention of resisting, suddenly quieted down at this time.

She felt the cold touch on the back of her head, smiled bitterly, and slowly closed her eyes.

"I hope you do what you say ......"

"Don't worry, I assure you."

Looking at his former good friend, Yoko Okino's eyes also flashed a trace of gloom.

"I'm sorry, Rena......"

"Phew!"

It is recommended that book friends who skip chapters and have not read the previous chapter can take a look, because the content of these two chapters is more coherent.

Finally, I'm curious to see what you think of this set of fallacies about plum wine.
