Gin doesn't want to work hard

After confirming that he had no recollection of it, Amuro Tooru was also somewhat puzzled.

Are kids these days so daring?

Most kids would probably have run away crying by now.

Unable to understand it, Amuro Tooru could only attribute it to his excessive curiosity.

After all, they're just kids; it's not surprising that they do anything driven by curiosity.

If you just ignore him, he'll probably get bored and leave on his own after a while.

With that thought in mind, Amuro Tooru stopped paying attention to Conan.

He pretended not to hear anything Conan said.

However, before he could wait for Conan to get bored and leave on his own, he heard Shiho Miyano say that she was leaving.

Amuro Tooru turned his head and saw the two sisters who had already stood up.

Miyano Akemi said apologetically, "I'm sorry, Mr. Kurosawa, for bothering you for so long."

Kurosawa shook his head to indicate that it was alright.

Miyano and the other two then prepared to leave.

Seeing this, Amuro Tooru also stood up, ready to follow.

Conan, who hadn't found out anything, immediately became anxious and said...

"No! You can't leave!"

Amuro Tooru paused, turned around, and looked back with a hint of real killing intent in his eyes.

Amuro Tooru was getting impatient with the child who kept bothering him.

Although he didn't really intend to do anything to him, he certainly showed a lot of murderous intent on the surface.

Conan was startled.

His body froze completely, and he couldn't even speak.

"Bourbon, you scared him!"

Fortunately, Akemi Miyano spoke up in time to save Conan.

Amuro Tooru looked away, ignoring Conan, and turned to walk out first.

Akemi Miyano smiled apologetically at Conan, then turned and left with Shiho Miyano.

Conan was pale and wanted to chase after them, but he couldn't move his body at all. He could only watch helplessly as they got into a car and drove away.

"hateful!"

Conan ran to the window and peered at the car getting further and further away, only managing to memorize its license plate number.

"Shinjuku 330 73-10".

Chapter 24 The Sophisticated Egoist

Kurosawa, who had been silently watching the show from the sidelines, swallowed the sandwich in his mouth and slowly got up when he saw that everything was over.

Seeing that Conan was still staring intently in the direction where Amuro and the others had left, Kurosawa asked a waiter for a cup of hot milk and walked towards Conan.

"Stop looking, they've already gone far away."

Kurosawa handed the milk to Conan.

Conan instinctively took it, and feeling the warmth from his hand, his initially anxious heart gradually calmed down.

Kurosawa sat down opposite Conan. "Tell me, what happened?"

Upon hearing this, Conan's expression turned serious, and he immediately revealed his discovery.

Kurosawa rested his chin on his hand and looked at him. Seeing that he had really told him all his discoveries and guesses in detail, Kurosawa couldn't help but smile.

That's it.

Gin has become the sharpest knife in the boss's hand;

Then Kurosawa Jin should also become Conan's most trusted partner.

Only in this way can Kurosawa have the freest choice in the final outcome, no matter what.

Whether it's Boss or Conan; whether it's the black team or the red team.

Ultimately, it's all about profit.

Everything Kurosawa did was naturally for his own benefit.

From beginning to end, he was a sophisticated egoist.

Conan's story had come to an end. He let out a long sigh of relief and took two big gulps of milk.

"Kurosawa-kun, what do you think?"

Kurosawa frowned, pretending to think for a moment, before finally speaking.

"Regarding that man you just mentioned, named 'Bourbon,' I feel like I've seen him somewhere before..."

"What did you say?" Conan asked excitedly, slamming his cup down on the table. "Kurosawa-kun, think carefully, where have you seen him before?"

At this moment, Conan felt as if a new path had opened up before him, and the clues that had almost been severed seemed to be about to be reconnected.

If we could find out where Bourbon usually went, and then stake out the place, we might be able to find evidence of his crimes!

Then we can hand over the evidence to the police and catch Bourbon!

Finally, if he gets the medicine from him and the doctor develops the antidote, he can turn back into Shinichi Kudo!

Once he returns to Shinichi Kudo, he will have greater freedom to investigate the organization, follow the clues, and eventually bring the organization to its knees!

Conan was ambitious, his eyes blazing with fury, eager to find evidence of Bourbon's crimes right now.

Kurosawa's lips twitched, and he poured cold water on him without any mercy.

"Stop thinking about it. Have you forgotten how you looked when you faced that man?"

“According to what you’ve said, they are all heinous murderers. If you just rush in like that, the most likely outcome is that you’ll be killed.”

"If we end up losing our lives instead of finding evidence, that's not something a smart person would do."

Conan gradually calmed down after hearing this.

hateful!

He gritted his teeth secretly.

Kurosawa is right.

Just by looking into Bourbon's eyes, he knew that he was a villain who didn't care about human life!

If I'm completely unprepared like I was today, I might really get killed if I meet him again!

Conan's face paled as he recalled the murderous look Bourbon had given him before leaving.

Although he was reckless, he wasn't stupid. Now that he had calmed down and thought about it, he realized that he had indeed been too impulsive.

but……

Conan's eyes flashed as he looked at Kurosawa.

"Kurosawa-kun, you said you saw that person before, where was it?"

Well this...

Kurosawa tilted his head and spoke under Conan's expectant gaze.

"I forgot."

Conan: ...?!

"Haha, Kurosawa-kun, are you kidding me?"

Kurosawa looked innocent.

"I really can't remember. Besides, I'm not even sure if I've ever met him."

"They just look familiar, maybe we met once a long time ago?"

"That's it..."

Conan was feeling a bit dejected.

Kurosawa was unable to help.

Conan's performance just now has definitely left a deep impression on Amuro Tooru.

If Conan were to run up to him and start dancing, and accidentally stumble upon something that no one could possibly notice, then Conan would be in real danger.

Amuro Tooru might not kill anyone, but Bourbon definitely will!

So for Conan's sake, it's best for him to behave himself for a while.

Kurosawa doesn't want Conan to be killed off, and then some Conan 2.0 to suddenly appear out of nowhere.

Compared to other uncontrollable factors, Conan, who is well-known and trusted, is much easier to control.

As for why I mentioned it to Conan...

He did indeed meet Amuro Tooru, even just recently.

This point will definitely be exposed once Amuro Tooru is exonerated and he and Conan discuss it.

Therefore, Kurosawa needs to apply a patch in advance.

When Conan asks him about this later, he can confidently answer.

Yes, he did meet Amuro Tooru, but how did he know that Amuro Tooru was Bourbon?

After all, Amuro Tooru as Bourbon has a very different temperament compared to his normal state.

It's understandable that he can't connect the two people right away, isn't it?

Conan had no idea what Kurosawa was thinking; at that moment, he was still immersed in the sadness of losing the clue about Bourbon.

After a while, Conan came to his senses and thought of another question.
