Subaru Okiya had previously suspected that Jiang Xia might be inseparable from this series of cases.
But now, after he succumbed to Usa's horrific scripts one after another and learned the important news from Usa that "someone is deliberately leading Jiang Xia to the crime scene", looking back, Okiya Subaru
Then he suddenly realized that almost every time he met Jiang Xia, and when Jiang Xia encountered a case, the first-grade primary school student wearing glasses was always there.
"..."
Once the fog was seen through, the low sense of presence belonging to a child was quickly brushed away. The Conan in Subaru Okiya's memory suddenly seemed to have an extremely eye-catching halo filter added to it, outlining the various aspects of this child's presence at the scene.
Abnormal performance.
Okiya Subaru even clearly remembered that there were several times when it was obvious that Conan encountered the case first and then attracted Jiang Xia.
And to put it this way, as a child, Conan has a unique advantage in this task - he can sneak into various locations without being held accountable by the law, and then force Jiang Xia to find him for his safety.
He didn't think much about it before, only thinking that this child was as unlucky as Jiang Xia, but now...
As expected, this child has been influenced by Uzo, and the influence is profound.
Subaru Okiya silently looked at Conan on the street, scrutinizing the child's expression. The more he thought about it, the more he thought, "Sure enough,": No matter how you look at it, this doesn't look like the expression of an innocent child - why is Conan staring like that?
Jiang Xia, why are you full of doubts? Could it be that he is already preparing for the next mission and is thinking about how to bring Jiang Xia to the scene quietly, just like he has been doing before?
Okiya Subaru: "..." Horrible, this child is really terrible.
However, the most terrifying thing is of course his boss.
——He actually didn’t even let go of such a young child, and he really succeeded in training a child who was just 7 years old into a terrifying existence that makes the members of the organization break out in cold sweats when they see him.
Could it be that in the future, I will be brainwashed into looking like Conan without knowing it?
Subaru Okiya couldn't help but think of his future, and even a picture appeared in his mind uncontrollably: when the agreed two-year period came, Usa let him leave as promised, but he no longer wanted to leave.
Instead, like Miss Misa or Conan, he willingly continues to work for Uzo. Uzo sat behind the desk, holding his chin and looking at this loyal new brother, showing a smile that said "Sure enough"...
As he thought about it, Okiya Subaru shivered and his whole body became cold. He silently wrapped his coat tightly: No, you can't compromise. You must stick to your heart and survive these two years!
While thinking about it, Subaru Okiya took out his mobile phone, opened his mailbox, silently wrote the general situation of the case and the follow-up into the mail, and sent it to Uzo.
...Keep your heart, keep your heart. Before that, he must first pretend to be a loyal subordinate and ensure that he can survive until two years later.
…
On the street in the distance.
Conan always felt like he was being watched quietly by something.
He roughly observed the surroundings and found nothing unusual, so he paid no more attention to it - in Conan's view, this "feeling of being spied on" was probably just an illusion.
"After all, anyone who suddenly knows the existence of that mysterious cadre will probably become suspicious in a short period of time, doubting that all his actions and even his thoughts are being observed, just like me now."
Conan pressed his forehead and mentally reminded himself not to distract himself: "The most important thing now is to find the guy lurking around Jiang Xia...if there is such a person."
After thinking carefully about "around Jiangxia" and "suspicious", after a moment, a face popped up in Conan's mind.
——The owner of the detective agency with blond hair, dark skin, mysterious whereabouts, and who doesn't look like a good person at all.
"Boss Amuro? Could it be him? So, he does often appear near the crime scene, and he fully meets the criteria of 'suspicious' - even when Haibara occasionally sees him, she looks better than usual
Cautious, is this because she feels the so-called 'organizational atmosphere' from Boss Amuro?"
After briefly locking the most suspicious target, Conan touched his chin again, feeling that he should be more cautious:
"However, Haibara's radar is sometimes not accurate enough, and she is too suspicious in this regard, and she has made misjudgments in the past. But because of this, we cannot conclude that Boss Amuro is a member of that dark organization.
"The most important thing is that although Boss Amuro often gives me a sense of danger, his terrifying level is still far behind that mysterious cadre.
"This may be because in daily life, Mr. Amuro deliberately disguises himself, thereby reducing the sense of danger he brings to people. Or maybe it is because he is really not 'that adult'."
In the absence of sufficient evidence, all speculation can only be speculation in the end.
This feeling of being difficult to finalize made Conan a little irritable.
While following Jiang Xia, he was preparing to visit the Metropolitan Police Department and take notes while taking off his glasses and pinching the bridge of his nose, reminding himself not to get into trouble:
"However, looking at the bright side, it cannot be assumed that the mysterious cadre came to me for the purpose of being bored and looking for a detective for entertainment.
"Perhaps he contacted me for other reasons - after all, apart from me, the only person he explicitly sent someone to contact was actually not another detective, but Hui Yuan.
"The biggest thing that Haiyuan and I have in common is that he didn't die after taking APTX4869, but turned into a child. I myself have experienced 'shrinking', so I gradually don't think there is anything strange about it.
, but in the eyes of others, this is obviously something that subverts the three views. There may even be a life code of "rejuvenation" hidden in it.
"And if that mysterious cadre can really control the case like this, then he is undoubtedly at the top of criminals and detectives. This kind of person may not care at all what other detectives think, but is pursuing something more difficult.
Things you get.
"In this way, Jiang Xia, a person who has never taken APTX4869, will not be targeted by him... It would be great if this is really the case."
Although some intuition told Conan that the mysterious cadre was not interested in APTX4869 at all.
But this possibility still made him feel relieved - he was already trapped in the quagmire of the black organization, and he could not escape and would not escape. But for such a terrible organization, the best friends and associates around him
Just run as far as you can, but don't get caught.
"arrive."
When the police car stopped, Conan came to his senses and followed several other people out of the car, preparing to take notes and bring this case to a close.
