Daily Spy Life in the Detective Conan World

Chapter 943 Breakaway Plan
After nearly four years of undercover work, the final moment had finally arrived. She seemed a little excited, and her trembling hands pulled out the envelope.

"How about we take a look together?"

Her smile hadn't lasted long when she suddenly heard other people's voices nearby, which startled her so much that her eyes almost popped out of their sockets.

Jun didn't even think about who the voice belonged to before grabbing the safe and throwing it behind him.

"Clang-crack-"

The safe smashed against the wall and fell to the ground.

Looking back, there was no one there.

But you can't fake a voice.

etc.
Jun realized what was happening, cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and before he could turn around, he felt a pain in the back of his neck and lost consciousness.

When she woke up again, she didn't know how much time had passed.

Her body was bound with hemp rope and placed on a dusty stool. With the slightest movement, it creaked and groaned.

Before her, a man and a woman were peeping into the secret she had been searching for for many years.

—That letter!

"Give it back to me!" she said without any hesitation.

Xia Chuan smiled, not answering her question, but instead asking with kind concern, "Awake?"

If he hadn't been so ruthless, how could I have fainted and been tied up?
It's just a weasel paying New Year's greetings to a chicken.

"Who are you?"

"We should be the ones asking that question. You must have put a lot of drugs in the food. I bet your bandmates won't wake up until dawn."

It was still dark.

Jun Makino only received this one piece of information.

She didn't speak, but struggled harder, and the rope tightened more and more.

Continuing like this will only make you feel worse.

"I knew you were up to something a long time ago. So, you're here for the Zhenye family's secret too, aren't you?"

"Yes."

During the time the other party was unconscious, Xia Chuan had already opened the letter and obtained the information he wanted from it.

As expected, the Makino family and Karasuma Renya have some kind of relationship.

To be precise, the envelopes were not left by the deceased Makino brothers, but by their respective fathers.

The two are not actually brothers; their father is.

Their fathers are Go Makino and Retsu Makino, both of whom were once secret members of the brewery.

They are called secret members, which is different from code name members.

They didn't use the name of the wine as the serial number; they simply addressed each other by numbers.

Go Makino is known as Number Seven, and Retsu Makino is known as Number Eight. They are both individuals who operate independently from Gin's Japanese branch.

They knew the boss's real name was Karasuma Renya, what the boss's purpose was, and the scholars and the Ooka family who had cooperation with the brewery.

Judging from the contents of that letter, the two betrayed the brewery seventeen years ago and disappeared with some of the organization's secrets on the day of the Miyano couple's laboratory explosion.

Karasuma Renya continued to investigate afterward, but more than a decade later, there were no results.

In fact, the two brothers had always been under Karasuma Renya's nose, right in Tokyo.

They simply changed their identity and appearance.

Eight years ago, the Zhenye brothers died one after the other for unknown reasons.

Their children, Asahi and Akino, then learned where their company's initial funding came from.

They also obtained information about Karasuma Renya that had been passed down, which the two fathers hoped they would use for self-protection.

However, they lacked the talent to run a business. After their father's death, the company went downhill and became heavily indebted within a year. They even fell into someone else's trap.

At this moment, they remembered this once-wealthy man and planned to use what their father had left behind to extort money from Karasuma Renya.

Their ideas are indeed bold.

Or perhaps they had never had any contact with Karasuma Renya and were unaware of how terrifying he was.

Like newborn calves unafraid of tigers, they found a location of the distillery through the information and left behind the extortion details.

And then they actually got a lot of money.

However, Karasuma Renya also learned of the existence of the Makino brothers because of this, and then spent several years finding them.

The envelope did not record what happened after that.

Some of the information was also made up by Xia Chuan himself, since an envelope can't hold much content.

It's worth mentioning that a USB drive was included in the envelope, presumably containing information about Karasuma Renya.

For Karasuma Renya to take it so seriously, even spending years searching for it, there must be something extraordinary about it.

However, before that, Jun Makino needs to be interrogated.

Frank has sent a message saying that Jun Makino is actually Akino Makino's wife. They married four years ago, and after Akino Makino died three years ago, she has not appeared in the Makino family's social circle.

Therefore, she is most likely related to Karasuma Renya.

"Who is this 'sir' you're talking about?" Xia Chuan went straight to the point without any hesitation.

“That gentleman is a dark cloud hanging over the neon-lit world. You never know what kind of methods he has. I advise you to let me go and give the envelope back to me.”

"If you choose to call the police, the only outcome will be that you will be assassinated."

Jun Seino said maliciously, "There's no doubt that you've inquired about what happened three years ago. Akino was killed because he didn't cooperate."

"???"

Xia Chuan then realized that the other party seemed to know nothing about him.

They had no idea about the conflict between Xia Chuan and the winery.

Therefore, it seems that Karasuma Renya's secret subordinates are somewhat disconnected from Gin and his group; at least, they do not share information.

However, she was clearly aware of the existence of the distillery.

This is roughly similar to the private army of ancient emperors, which was used to handle things they didn't want others to know.

Even Gin couldn't know that Natsukawa was becoming increasingly interested in the data on the USB drive.

"If all of you disappear, who will know we were here?"

"Furthermore," Xia Chuan smiled mysteriously, "do you think the name I told you is real, or even this face, isn't it fake?"

Jun Seino remained outwardly calm, but inwardly he had sunk to the bottom.

Yes, I never expected something like this to happen, and contacting my husband is very troublesome; I haven't even reported what happened today yet.

Amazing.

Joel thought to himself.

It's like going out to dinner with your partner, who can arrange everything for you—eating, drinking, and having fun—so you don't have to do anything. You just have to follow along, and you don't have to put in any effort at all.

"Ms. Jun Makino, please make a decision quickly."

After a day of observation, he confirmed that Jun Makino did not seem to have much fighting ability and was probably the kind of spy who used her beauty to seduce her targets, and was not worried at all about escaping from his hands.

Jun Seino's heart skipped a beat; perhaps the other party wasn't there to investigate the deaths of the Seino brothers.

They might be here for you, sir! "I can say that, but I know so much I could talk for three days and three nights. Are you suggesting I tell you all this right here?"

She glanced at Xia Chuan's watch, her meaning crystal clear.

indeed.

Xia Chuan said nothing, and struck again, knocking him unconscious once more.

"Strange, it seems that Karasuma Renya has quite a few people working behind the scenes."

Joel pouted, "Numbers seven and eight, which means there are numbers one through six ahead of us, and who knows how many more people are behind us."

Yoel had thought that the brewery was everything to Karasuma Renya, but now a force that was completely devoted to the other party had emerged, which made him somewhat unhappy.

After all, the unknown represents danger.

“It should be alright.” Xia Chuan shrugged. “Zhenye Jun should also be one of them. Judging from her relationship with Liangzi who died three years ago, she should be more like a pure spy, and she may be a little weak in combat.”

Natsukawa had anticipated this, after all, Karasuma Renya was already 150 years old, and it would be unrealistic for him not to have some people serving him.

This actually put him at ease.

The next morning, the three members of the orchestra woke up in their rooms.

They went downstairs in a daze and saw farewell letters left by Xia Chuan and Yue Er on the table.

"Speaking of which, these two are quite interesting."

Jun Tendo chuckled and picked up the check from under the ashtray. It was a bearer check for one million yen, which could be cashed directly without any paperwork.

“One million isn’t a lot, but it’s exactly what we need. And they only provided one day’s meals. If there were more people like this, that would be great.”

Yoji Aomoto also smiled.

However, Morinaka Rinko wasn't particularly interested in the money; he frowned and looked around for something.

"What are you looking for?"

"Didn't you guys notice? Makino is gone."

“It seems so,” Tiantang Chun said with a hint of surprise, then quickly explained, “Maybe they went out to buy groceries. Our car isn’t here.”

"Ah."

The three of them didn't pay any attention to this and waited anxiously in the villa until evening, when they realized that perhaps Jun Makino hadn't gone to buy groceries, and the so-called one million yen check wasn't for food and lodging expenses, but rather that Natsukawa and the others might have driven the car away.

The cost of buying a car.
Tokyo, Miwa Town.

When Jun Makino woke up for the second time, he was already sitting in the interrogation room of the Frank family's house.

"We agreed on three days and three nights. I've already set up the stage. Shouldn't we start the performance now?"

A cold voice came from the front. Despite feeling the icy temperature of the metal interrogation chair, Jun Seino showed no fear whatsoever; in fact, a disdainful smile appeared on his lips.

"Hmph, there's no way I'll reveal anything about you regarding the gentleman."

Jun's expression was very firm, and from his tone, Natsukawa could sense the resistance from the bottom of his heart.

This feeling is similar to some cult members I've encountered before. Mr. is like Jun's faith, and her unwavering faith prevents her from uttering a single word.

Xia Chuan didn't say anything, and immediately resorted to his methods.

In this technologically advanced age, interrogation methods have evolved so much that keeping you conscious while suffering pain is all too easy.

Half an hour later, the interrogation room was filled with a foul and pungent odor.

Normally, the other party should have already spoken by now, but Jun Makino still refused to reveal anything.

"A hateful form of brainwashing."

Xia Chuan felt a chill in his heart, yet he was helpless.

"It seems there's no way out, right?" Joel was waiting outside when he saw Xia Chuan come out and quickly asked, "If we continue interrogating her like this, she might lose consciousness and become a vegetable."

"Ah."

Xia Chuan nodded slightly and poured himself a glass of water to drink.

"Perhaps we should use the Curaçao method."

"Huh?" Joel was confused.

"First, make her lose her memory, then reintroduce her values, and then try to restore her memory by creating a conflict between her values. Maybe that will work."

“That’s true.” Frank walked over. “But that might not work. If her faith is strong enough, it will only lead to a mental breakdown and she’ll go insane.”

"Furthermore, doing this requires a long period of value indoctrination, at least six months."

"Try it."

Nobody knows when this year will end. Frank said six months, but Xia Chuan has absolutely no sense of time.

We can only say we'll have to make do.

"Let's go, the USB drive is cracked, there's some data you want inside."

"it is good."

Jun Seino was just an extra; the USB drive was the real key. He was quite curious about what information Number Seven and Number Eight had obtained that made Karasuma Renya take it so seriously, even sending his spies to lie low for so long.

Upon entering the living room, the USB drive was already plugged into the computer.

Shinide Tomoaki and Shinmei Kaori were not present; they were presumably sent to check on the situation outside.

It seems that this information is indeed extraordinary, and Frank takes it very seriously.

"let's start."

Turn on the white screen projector, and the contents of the USB drive will be projected onto it in the form of an image, making it clear to everyone.

The information above was quite extensive, even surprising Xia Chuan.

The cause of death of the Miyano couple was explained first.

They did indeed deliberately cause the mistake.

However, at that time, Karasuma Renya was very attentive to the research on the two, and the research was very safe.

At that time, apart from Vermouth, the two brothers, Makino and his brother, were the main people in charge of the surveillance research lab.

The Miyano couple approached the two men and forced them to cooperate, threatening to tell Karasuma Renya about their extramarital affairs if they refused.

The Zhenye brothers did not want their children to become members of the organization like themselves, and they also wanted to get out, so they hit it off immediately.

Then, one night seventeen years later, a fire broke out in the laboratory, burning almost all the research data to ashes, and the Miyano couple also died in the fire.

The Zhenye brothers risked their lives to "rescue" some documents and a so-called successful longevity drug—the Silver Bullet.

The fire enraged Karasuma Renya, who also suspected the Miyano couple of having problems, but since they were already dead, he didn't think much of it.

Although the Makino brothers were punished, they at least survived because of the "silver bullet".

At that time, Karasuma Renya's life was almost over, and he had no time to care about the Zhenye brothers.

This gave the two a chance to break away.

Using the address provided by Atsushi Miyano, they contacted a plastic surgeon to alter their appearance, copied some tissue materials for self-defense, and then completely disappeared from the world.

Actually, in their agreement with the Miyano couple, Miyano Akemi and Miyano Shiho were also to be taken away.

However, Zhenye Go and Zhenye Retsu were afraid, worried that making too much of a move would attract the attention of Karasuma Renya, so they ran away on their own.

"Poor Haibara!"
