Daily Spy Life in the Detective Conan World

Chapter 1014 The Last Trustee
"Mother, Father hasn't been home for a long time. Shall we eat out again today?"

Because there are no classes, Anya has been having a blast these past two days, spending all her time watching TV and playing video games, and she doesn't have to do homework.

For some reason, Ai Haibara didn't pay much attention to her and spent the last two days hiding in the underground research lab researching something.

"Yes, let's go eat your favorite sukiyaki later. There's lots of Wagyu beef and pasteurized eggs!"

"But you'll have to wait a moment, I need to make a call to Attorney Fei."

Joel also applied for leave from the Metropolitan Police Department, taking care of the two children and Bond while also contacting lawyer Eri Kisaki to prepare to sue Kuroda Heibei through legal channels.

After all, Joel was very worried because he hadn't been able to contact his younger brother for so long.

Today, Eri Kisaki has gathered all the evidence and is visiting the Public Security Headquarters. If Kuroda Hyōe doesn't want to escalate the situation, he should be able to reduce Yuri's punishment.

However, this meant that Yuri would have no chance of surviving under Kuroda Hyōe's control.

But so what?
In Joel's opinion, it's best to stay away from people like Kuroda Hyōe.

If it weren't for the fact that the other party was a police officer, Joel would have really wanted to transform into the Thorn Princess and deliver a fatal blow.

After confirming by phone that Eri had not been stopped, Joel breathed a sigh of relief and took the children out to eat.

As soon as he stepped out of his house, Joel saw someone in the coffee shop across the street looking in his direction.

Joel glanced at it and then ignored it.

Only after he had taken Anya and Ai Haibara far away did he contact Frank.

Frank was packing his things, preparing to blow up the observation station.

After several attempts to contact them, Karasuma Renya finally discovered that there was something wrong with the base.

Karasuma Renya didn't know how the base had been exposed, but he had certainly alerted the enemy.

Upon receiving Joel's notification, Frank calmly replied, "He's an old actor; we've been monitoring him for a while now."

"No, I feel like their attention isn't on us today."

“The Poirot Cafe is directly facing our house. This surveillance is different from the past; they specifically chose a spot in the corner.”

"The surveillance angle is incorrect."

Frank hesitated for a few seconds, then said, "We'll investigate again after we get back here."

This is a dimly lit room.

The room was filled with the smell of old people and hospital disinfectant.

An unidentified instrument flashed red light and beeped rhythmically.

“Ha, huh—”

"Ha-hoo-hoo!"

The old voice was breathing heavily, his forehead was covered in sweat, and his eyes were full of exhaustion.

A red IV tube was connected from the blood bag to the withered arm, while blood was being drained from the other hand.

About half an hour later, the door was opened, and the outside light illuminated the room considerably.

At this moment, it was finally clear that this was a hospital room, and the old man lying on the bed was Karasuma Renya.

"Sir, is the situation any better?"

The visitor nervously sat down next to Karasuma Renya and asked worriedly, "Should I ask Gin to find a doctor to come over?"

He is Karasuma Renya's bodyguard and driver, Yu Yu Nanshen, and is trusted to a degree comparable to Rum and Gin.

Karasuma Renya shook his head in pain: "How many blood bags did you bring out?" "They should only be enough for another three days."

"Should we talk to Gin about what's going on at the base?"

“Okay.” Karasuma Renya pondered, “Have him provide the next batch of blood as well. Also, urge him to speed up the progress; it’s too slow.”

It only took two days from selecting the research institute to officially starting research, but analyzing the human body is not a project that can be completed in a short time.

Although I know that you are being a bit too hasty, it is normal to be anxious now that we have reached the final stage.

"I understand, I'll contact Gin right away."

"Remember, don't let anyone else know. I have a feeling that there's something strange about how Akai Mary got her this time. There must be some kind of scheme behind it."

Karasuma Renya wasn't stupid; he knew perfectly well that there was something fishy going on.

"You mean, someone orchestrated our capture of Mary Akai?!"

"Ah."

"Do you think it might be related to that scholar? He didn't die in the explosion two years ago."

Karasuma Renya closed his eyes, his breathing heavy.

Knowing that the gentleman did not want to discuss this topic, Ye Younan bowed and left silently.

After closing the door, Karasuma Renya reopened her eyes.

It would be very difficult if the scholar hadn't died.

I used to know where he was, but now I have absolutely no news of him.

However, he did not regret taking action against the scholars. Anyone who stood in the way of his immortality, whether it was a scholar, Ooka Toramasa, or that Natsukawa, would die!
The breathing in the room gradually calmed down, and soon Karasuma Renya fell into a deep sleep.

Ye Younan walked out of the room and into the living room, where there was another person guarding him.

To ensure his own safety, Karasuma Renya also summoned another trusted confidant.

Ueno Tsuneie, a complete assassin, was an orphan adopted by Karasuma Renya twenty years ago. His loyalty to him was comparable only to Gin's.

"How is the gentleman?"

"I asked with concern," Nagano Tsuneie asked.

Their group and the organization's structure were different; they didn't use the name of the liquor as a code name. Either they already had a name, or it was given by Karasuma Renya.

Since Nagano Tsuneie was discovered in Nagano, he was simply given the surname Nagano.

Of course, for these close confidants, the use of real names was actually not very high. Apart from calling each other by their real names, they usually used pseudonyms.

"It's nothing, he's already asleep." Ye Younan shook his head, then asked, "How's it going on your end?"

Nagano Tsuneie snorted coldly, his whole body becoming murderous. "Haga Kyosuke and Yamanashi Shinta have been torn to pieces by me. They are the only two people who know about the Hope Mansion. The exposure of the base is definitely related to them."

"Actually, they should have been brought back." Ye Younan sighed deeply. This Killer Star was too impulsive. One of them was bound to cause trouble. If both of them were dealt with, their already small team of trusted men would be reduced to just the two of them.

"There's no need. I don't think Shinta Yamanashi is very suspicious either, and he's also connected to many yakuza organizations. We should eliminate him as soon as possible."

Nagano Tsuneie picked up his glass and downed it in one gulp. He turned to look at the neon-lit Tokyo nightscape outside the window. "If it weren't for the fact that the master wouldn't let me go to Nagano, I would have killed that bastard Shiraishi. He was the one who taught me to be loyal to the master, but in the end, he just acted for the master with an outsider."

Yeyou Nanshen declined to comment on this.

He was the calmest among them, his main purpose being to protect the gentleman's safety; he didn't need to consider anything else.

"Nan Shen, you must never follow their example."
