This is the end of the matter for the time being.

Shuichi Akai then also regained his identity as Okiya and returned to Kudo House.

However, even though he himself was able to skillfully disguise himself into the face of Okiya, Yukiko Kudo rushed back from the United States to check his disguise.

"Oops, awesome!" In front of the vanity mirror, Yukiko Kudo looked at Okiya Pleiasia, who had completed her cross-dressing, "Your cross-dressing is already perfect!" ”

Kaedehara, Conan, and Judy and Kamel, who had been specially called by Okiya, were all watching.

"Don't dare to be!" Okiya said modestly, "I'm just going to disguise myself like this now, and the little girl next door is already better than me after she hasn't been learning for long." ”

"Don't compare like this, Xiao Wai is really talented in this area. But that way, I won't have to come and check your cross-dressing every week! ”

"I'm sorry for your trouble."

"Oh, it's a bit of a pity that there is one less reason to come to see you!" Kudo Yukiko smiled with her face in her right hand.

Conan couldn't help but give his mother a dead fisheye.

"It's just another person." Looking at Okiya's face, Judy also sighed.

"Is this really Akai?" This is Kamal.

"Hasn't the voice changed?" Okiya said, then pressed the button of the collar-type voice changer, "However, as long as you use this collar-type voice changer worn around your neck, you can become Okiya Pleiades." ”

"Voice, voice has changed!"

"Thanks to Dr. Asasa, who made the voice changer, and Yusaku Mito, the wife of Yusaku Monodo, the head of this family, Miss Yukiko's cross-dressing."

"Hmph~" Yukiko showed a happy expression.

"I would also like to thank Shinichi Kudo, who came back to help disguise himself as Okiya, Miss Ai Ashbara, who carried out the disguise, and the two children who made this series of plans."

Okiya looked at Kaedehara and Conan again.

Kaedehara was a little embarrassed, he wasn't very good at dealing with this kind of face-to-face thanks.

And the plan that day was basically made by Conan, because both sides were actually their own people, and Kaedehara didn't think there was anything wrong with Conan's plan.

He just offered to change himself back to Kudo Shinichi.

After all, because of the duration of the drug, it was Ash Hara who needed to help disguise Kudo Shinichi.

The next few people chatted a few more words, and after a while, Yukiko Kudo rushed to the airport to catch a flight back to the United States, and Kaedehara and Conan returned to the doctor's house together.

At the doctor's house, Gray Yuan Ai is sitting on the sofa flipping through a fashion magazine, and the doctor is preparing four cups of black tea, as if he is going to play some trick with three real elementary school students.

……

The other side.

Amuro drove the Belmode in his car, exchanging information with her in this way.

He was persuaded by Shuichi Akai on the phone that day, and his true identity was revealed, so he gave up his plan to arrest Shuichi Akai and give it to the organization, and concealed the matter.

"So didn't I say that?" Belmore held his head with one hand and looked at Toru Amuro who was driving, "How can that Akai still be alive." ”

"yes, it's me who is overthinking."

"Don't do that again?"

"Good. But if anything else happens, please help me. Amuro said, "Anyway, I'm one of the few people who knows your secret. If the members of the organization found out, they would be surprised! I didn't expect you to be the boss..."

His words did not go on.

At this moment, his temple was pressed against the muzzle of the gun.

"One more word," Belmore said in a brisk tone, but this casual attitude showed that she didn't mind shooting straight away at all, "your brains are going to splash on the windshield!" ”

"Then don't do it, it's going to be a hassle to clean up."

"It's okay, it's not my car."

"Didn't I say my brain, didn't I say it before?" "If my message is interrupted, your secrets will be leaked to the organization—I've already arranged for that. ”

"yes, there's another thing." Belmore seemed to remember, put away his pistol and looked out the window.

"Don't worry, I'll keep your secret. There will be no negligence. ”

"Oh? Is it? ”

“… I thought it was a little strange last time, what the hell are you trying to say? Am I overlooking? ”

"Nothing. From now on, it's better for us not to act on our own. Belmore had to change the subject, "Your matter with Shirley has not made any progress, and another rat in the organization has mixed in, and Gin seems to be taking it seriously. Cohen's revenge hasn't been avenged..."

"He thinks it's the rat?"

"yes. Counting the man named Hondo and Akai, there are already three of them. It was the police officer who had infiltrated and was killed before he could be named. ”

“……”

"His code name seems to be called—" Belmore recalled.

"Scotch whisky."

……

Kudo house.

"Why not, Scotch whisky."

Carmel looked at the cabinet, "Akai is a whisky party, Scotch whisky and bourbon are very fond of it." ”

"I've only liked Bourbon lately."

"Speaking of Bourbon," Judy asked, "does Amuro really plan to hand Shuichi over to the Order?" What if you tell me how you were caught? ”

"If you're taken hostage, he'll expect me to be silent." Okiya replied.

That night, a group of Japanese police tried to catch Judy and Kamal, who were heading to Laihayama Road, and he helped solve the matter by hiding in their car, and conveyed his thoughts to Amuro through the phone calls of the police officers.

"And then?" Judy then asked, "Why would you rather have us constantly check if someone is following us, and call us here?" Isn't it just for us to see your amazing disguise? ”

Okiya pressed the collar-type voice changer and changed back to Akai Shuichi's voice, "This morning, Mizuno sent me an email. ”

"What!?"

"So, the fact that Akai is still alive hasn't been exposed."

"Probably so. But the email that said it was only three letters in English. Okiya pulled out his phone from his arms.

"Three letters?"

"What is the abbreviation?"

"No, it's the name of the wine you're all very familiar with." Okiya showed the email to Judy and Kamal, "RUM. ”

……

"Rum?"

Ai took his eyes off the fashion magazine and looked at Kaedehara, who was sitting next to him.

At the table in the other corner of the living room, the doctor said that he had lemon juice in one of the four cups of black tea and vinegar in three cups, and claimed that he had superpowers, and he could tell which one was lemon juice without smelling it.

In fact, the four cups of black tea were all vinegar, and the doctor was just going to pretend to be delicious, forcibly drinking the black tea and insisting that the cup he was holding was lemon juice.

This kind of trick Kaedehara and Conan can see at a glance, so the two are asked by the doctor not to participate.

So Conan watched the play on the sidelines, and Kaede came over to tell Gray Yuan about the news he had just learned from Okiya Pleiades, that is, Rum's dispatch.

"Hmm." Kaedehara nodded.

"As I told you before, I don't know much about wine." Gray Plains said softly, "But if you're talking about the code name of the second-in-command of the Black-Clad Organization, called Rum, I know. ”

"Second-in-command..."

"At least that's what I heard about when I was in the organization, although I haven't seen it. What do you need to know about him? ”

"yes."

"Then I'm afraid I won't be able to help much, and the rumors I heard about him when I was in the organization were all sorted. Some say he's a strong man, others say he's a woman, some say he's an old man, and some say he's all a stand-in. ”

Gray Yuan pointed his chin with his index finger and frowned slightly, as if he was trying hard to recall, "Hmm... He seems to have a distinct trait, but I can't remember it for a while..."

"It's okay, there's no hurry."

"And then?" Gray Yuan then asked, "Could it be that rum also went out to find me?" ”

"I don't think I'm here for you," Kaedehara replied, "According to Mizuno Rei, Amuro Toru, or Bourbon, is here to find you, so there's no reason why another rum would be dispatched." ”

"Ah, are you saying I'm not that important?"

“… Do you wish you were so important to the organization? ”

"Hmph, Mr. Detective is really comforting, I'm in a much better mood," Gray Yuan snorted softly, "So what is he for?" ”

"Hmm... Up in the air. ”

"Not sure?" Gray Plains was stunned for a moment.

She didn't think Kudo would know about such a thing, so she just asked casually, but his answer obviously meant something else.

"You've got a guess?" Gray Plains asked.

"It's just a very basic guess, and it's not valuable. I think it may have something to do with that Shiliang Zhenchun, after all, she chased her from England and has been inquiring about news..."

Gray Yuan thought for a moment.

"Speaking of Shiliang Zhenchun," Kaedehara hesitated slightly, "There's one more thing..."

"What's wrong?"

"That's... She just sent a message asking Conan and me to go to her hotel next week..."

……

A few days later.

The time soon came to the agreed time.

"Is it really okay?"

In the hotel room, Mary Akai pulled a few photos on her phone, "You haven't even figured out who Shinichi Kudo is now, have you?" ”

"But there's got to be one of them, Shinichi Kudo!"

"Huh?"

"And I really can't help it!" Sera Shinsumi went on to talk about his difficulties, "I think it's all Shinichi Kudo!" But how is this possible..."

"What if it's not?" Mary Akai was a little dissatisfied, "In that case, I can't tell them about it..."

"That's why I want you to help you take a look!"

“… What about this? Marie Akai pulled her phone and switched the photo to Kaedehara's, "You also said, you haven't seen him a few times, have you?" Why do you think he's also Shinichi Kudo? ”

"He doesn't have glasses."

"Huh?" Mary Akai looked at her daughter with some unhappiness.

"That's it," but Sera doesn't think there's anything wrong with it, "When you see that face, you think of it ten years ago." And this kid seems to be very powerful. ”

"Amazing? Is it very capable of fighting? ”

"It's not. He's very keen, it's hard to take a secret picture of him, and in the end, I barely managed to get such a photo by taking it directly! "The most important thing is—"

"What is it?"

"He immediately recognized me as a girl!"

"......" Marie Akai was silent for a moment, "After coming to Japan this time, the first time you saw him was wearing a school uniform and skirt, right?" ”

"That's right. But even my classmates were shocked when they saw me for the first time! I was wearing the same dress at the time, and they all knew in advance that I was a girl! ”

“……”

But the guy didn't look surprised at all! And we met him when we were in London! Even if someone tells him that I'm a girl after that, he'll look at me a few times, right? Maybe he'll know I'm a girl when he's in London - if he doesn't remember me, he must be magical! ”

Mary Akai was a little distressed.

"Also, his friends call him by his last name..."

"What's going on?"

"Sherlock Holmes and Watson are both surnames! He must have let others call him that because of this... Kudo Shinichi also said that he was a disciple of Sherlock Holmes. ”

"I see, so even though I haven't seen him much, you still think he's Shinichi Kudo too," Marie Akai decided to bypass the topic for now, "but can you really believe it?" ”

She glanced at the photos of Kaedehara and Conan a few more times, "In addition to being very sharp, he just looks smarter like this boy named Conan Edogawa." ”

Even if one of these two people did be Shinichi Kudo, it would also mean that they would have to tell the two about it.

"No problem!" Shira Zhenjun patted his chest and made a guarantee.

"And then? When are they coming? ”

"It's almost time to make an appointment."

"Did you tell them that just the two of them would come?"

"yes, I told them not to bring those kids!" Shiliang Zhenjun said, looking at the hotel door, and just at this moment, there was a knock on the door, "Ah! It's coming, it's coming! ”

"Be careful!"

Akai Marie then advised, "If they don't meet our expectations, or if none of them are Shinichi Kudo, ask them to leave." Because we need to explore new areas! ”

"Okay, I got it! Before you figure it out, you'll hide in the bathroom! ”

They installed cameras in their rooms, and Marie Akai could use the computer to spy on the two in the bathroom.

When Akai Marie hid in the bathroom, Shira Masumi rushed over to open the door.

"I'm waiting for you! Conan! Kaedehara! ”

Then her face froze.

Because not only Kaedehara and Conan were in front of her, but also-

"Hello!" The garden waved his hand.

"We're here too!" Xiaolan said with a smile.

- Although it is true that they did not bring the children, they did bring two people who were not children.

Thinking in his heart, Shiliang Zhenchun couldn't help but say to Kaede Yuan and Conan, "Yuan, didn't it turn out that it was just the two of you who came?" ”

Kaedehara turned to look at Conan.

Conan, who was a little embarrassed, pretended not to see it, "Ahhh I said that I was going to come with Kaedehara to find Sister Shiliang, and after Sister Shiliang stayed in a hotel with a swimming pool, Sister Xiaolan said that they also wanted to come..."

"Ah, did it bother you?" Xiaolan asked.

yes, it's bothered.

"No, no," although he thought so in his heart, Shira Zhenchun still said so, "I just didn't know in advance, and I was just shocked." ”

"Oh..."

"Then you guys go to the pool first! I'll clean up and go over. ”

"Good!"

Ran and Sonoko turned around and walked towards the pool, while Sera Masumi quickly walked back to the room and closed the door, and then made an apology gesture with her hands folded in Akai Mari, who quietly opened the bathroom door and looked over.

"Idiot!" Mary Akai scolded, then coughed twice.

Shira Zhenjun was a little embarrassed and hurriedly went to pack his swimsuit.

Outside the door, Conan, who was slightly two steps behind and still standing outside the door, looked at Kaedehara and cast an inquiring look.

Kaede Yuan nodded slightly, and then gestured to Xiaolan's side. If they don't follow, Xiaolan will turn around and call them.

Slightly away from the room, Kaedehara whispered to Conan what he had just heard: "There are indeed other people inside. ”

"Did you say anything?" Conan beamed. It's like another self, and it's much better than a bugging device on some occasions.

"It's a woman, she shouldn't be very old. The soundproofing of the hotel room was not bad, but she was also close to the door, probably just out of the bathroom... I heard an 'idiot' and two coughs. ”

"Just came out of the bathroom," Conan pondered, "could it be that he was going to hide in the bathroom and watch us with a surveillance camera or something... Cut, you know there must be some conspiracy..."

Fortunately, Shira Masumi still doesn't know what Kaedehara is so powerful...

"They also had a few words of conversation after knocking on the door before."

Kaedehara went on to repeat the two words he had heard.

"If it's not Shinichi Kudo..."
