The Black Detective of the Detective Conan World

Damn it!

This can't be fake, right?!

If I were alone, I might be fooled, but surely the three of them wouldn't all be fooled?

Especially Aunt Mariko, whose own son was arrested as a murderer, and she still gave money to Naoto Hayashi?!

Clearly, there is only one possibility!

That means they paid for a murderer; the old man was killed by a famous detective, but in the end, the blame fell on Ichiro.

That money was for hiring a murderer!

No matter how unwilling Aunt Mariko was, she dared not offend a criminal gang with such ruthless and terrifying methods!

So not only did she have to obediently hand over the check, but she also had to continue spending money to ask the famous detective's wife and famous lawyer to intervene and reduce Ichiro's guilt!

How could he, a mere young son-in-law who had just married into a hatamoto family, dare to offend such a terrifying criminal force?

You'd better just pay up.

Just consider it a purchase for peace of mind.

So even though Naoto Hayashi spoke so bluntly and clearly, he only took it as an act and became even more respectful: "Please don't be so polite, this is my sincere gratitude."

Naoto Hayashi clicked his tongue: "Alright then, as long as you don't regret it."

Xiao Wu felt relieved and immediately stood up, saying, "Thank you very much. I'll take my leave now."

He didn't dare to stay with this kind of person for long, always feeling a chill emanating from him that made him uneasy.

Xiao Wu also left in a hurry.

Lin Zhiren pointed his finger at the check, then suddenly had a thought. He turned to look across the street from the coffee shop, trying to find the familiar figure of that kid.

Huh? Not this time?

Naoto Hayashi was somewhat surprised.

Logically, you should encounter Conan every time you collect money, so why didn't you see him this time?

Is it because of the check instead of cash?

Just then, I saw several small heads pop out through the large floor-to-ceiling windows of the coffee shop.

It was Conan and the three children from the Junior Detective League!

Though late, it has arrived!

Conan stared intently at Naoto Hayashi; he had just arrived and only caught a glimpse of Takeshi's departing figure.

Although I couldn't hear what they were talking about, I did see that Naoto Hayashi was pointing at a check!

What kind of transactions require the use of checks?

Could this be another shady deal with the suspect?!

But wait, that Xiao Wu was clearly wronged. Uncle Mori cleared his name on the cruise ship yesterday.

Or is there some other deal that I'm unaware of?

How awful!

When exactly did that bastard Naoto Hayashi... right, it was before the incident, when he chatted with each member of the Hatamoto family. Could it have been around that time?

But...

Why is that?!

It's beyond repair!

We really should have secretly planted a listening device on him!

Naoto Hayashi put away the check, came out of the coffee shop, and walked up to the group of kids.

"Conan, what are you doing here? Are these all your classmates?"

The little girl, Yoshida Ayumi, wearing a headband, looked at Hayashi Naoto, her face slightly flushed, and couldn't help but say, "Big brother, you're so handsome! My name is Yoshida Ayumi."

The tall and burly Genta Kojima said in a deep voice, "My name is Genta Kojima, and I'm the leader of the 'Junior Detective Club'!"

With a face full of pockmarks, Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya asked curiously, "My name is Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya. Big brother, are you Conan's older brother?"

Conan said with a dark face, "I didn't do that... He's not my brother."

He looked up at Naoto Hayashi and said, "Hey, what are you doing here? Are you up to something bad again...?"

Boom!

Naoto Hayashi tapped him on the head and smiled at the three elementary school students, saying, "My name is Naoto Hayashi. I work as an assistant to Mr. Mori at the Mori Detective Agency. Hello, everyone."

Conan grimaced and covered his head, finally remembering his identity. He could only say, feeling aggrieved, "Naoto-nii, we're waiting for Professor Agasa here. He's planning to take us camping and treasure hunting today."

The other three cheered in unison, "We have a treasure map! We're going to find the treasure!"

Lin Zhiren's heart stirred, and he wanted to go too!

With Conan around, they're bound to encounter cases!

However, he is completely unfamiliar with Professor Agasa, so what reason could he possibly have to be together?

Seeing Naoto Hayashi's thoughtful expression, Conan's heart skipped a beat.

What's that bastard thinking? What's with that expression? Does he want to go too?

I always feel like nothing good ever happens when I'm with him!

No! We can't let him go!

Just then, a yellow Beetle sedan drove up and stopped beside them.

The driver was none other than Professor Agasa, a round-figured man wearing black-rimmed glasses.

Although he is a genius inventor, his inventions are not very reliable. He always has a childlike quality, which makes him very popular with children.

"Conan, I've come to pick you up... Ah, who is this?"

Naoto Hayashi smiled slightly and said, "I'm Naoto Hayashi, Professor Mori's assistant. You must be Professor Agasa?"

Professor Agasa chuckled good-naturedly: "Oh, so you're Detective Mouri's assistant? What a spirited young man!"

Conan, worried that Naoto Hayashi would find an excuse to get in the car, quickly opened the car door, rummaged through the car and found a few books, which he handed to Naoto Hayashi, saying, "Naoto-nii, these are books that Professor Agasa borrowed from the library, but he forgot to return them. Could you please return them for me? Otherwise, it will be a hassle if they expire."

Professor Agasa paused for a moment, then said in surprise, "Huh? I haven't even..."

Conan quickly covered his mouth, and Naoto Hayashi gave a dry laugh.

Lin Zhiren glanced at him and said regretfully, "Alright then, I'll return these books to you."

"Thank you so much! Let's play together next time!" Conan said, pushing all the children into the car and slamming the door shut.

The beetles have gone.

Chapter 47 The Infiltrated Beauty Assassin

Maya Tachibana feels like she's been having a run of bad luck lately.

Since arriving in Tokyo, I haven't encountered a single good thing.

First, the investigation into the special magnetic field yielded no results.

Then, after accepting an assassination commission, he somehow managed to lose his memory!

The commission failed, and he was knocked unconscious, captured, and handed over to the police.

Fortunately, she was skilled at picking locks and managed to escape while the police were distracted.

She intended to continue her investigation of Moonshadow Island, but after arriving on the island, several members of the organization were killed one after another, and she was implicated as a shark killer.

A large number of police officers conducted a near-net-like search, chasing her around like a rabbit.

Fortunately, she was strong enough to evade the police search by hiding underwater and other means, and finally escaped Moonshadow Island.

After overcoming numerous hardships, Maya Tachibana finally returned to Beika Town in Tokyo and began awaiting the organization's new mission.

Suddenly my phone vibrated; it was a new mission instruction from the organization.

The mission is actually related to the Moonshadow Island incident.

The drug dealers who died at the time were actually peripheral members who raised funds for the organization, and their deaths led to the exposure of a drug trafficking route within the organization.

To avoid uncovering more organizational secrets, Tachibana Maya needs to silence several of her subordinates.

Tsugawa, the director of the Beika Library, and Tamada, a staff member, are these two peripheral members.

Maya licked her lips, replied "Received," and then deleted the message.

She did simple makeup in the safe house, disguising herself as a female college student with glasses, long black hair, and simple attire.

Then he took out a pistol, checked its condition, and loaded a bullet.

She hid the pistol inside a plush toy and then took it to the Mika Library.

……

Naoto Hayashi hugged the books Conan had given him.

Judging from the titles, they are all medical books with profound content that I can't understand at all.

It's estimated that Professor Agasa wanted to see if he could solve Conan's physical problems.

However, this time Conan threw them all over the place in order to get Naoto Hayashi away.

Naoto Hayashi didn't seem to care much. One less case was one less, there would be plenty more in the future anyway.

First, go along with Conan's lead and make him feel that he won this time, and that he can get it back next time.

He went to the Mihua Library, found the lending counter, and returned all the books.

Just as he was about to leave, he brushed past a female college student wearing glasses at the door and was suddenly startled!

The girl was surrounded by a murderous aura that seemed almost tangible!

What's even more frightening is that the sins she committed were as numerous as mud!

Naoto Hayashi has only met one person like this so far!

Female assassin Tachibana Maya!

Lin Zhiren's expression remained unchanged as he walked straight out.

However, a ring on his finger transformed into a little bee and buzzed back into the library.

Disguised as a female college student, Tachibana Maya glanced back; she had just sensed that someone was watching her.

Is this an illusion?

And that person who just left, he looks kind of familiar?

Never mind, finishing the task first is more important.

Maya Tachibana continued her search for her target within the library.

She quickly found two targets: the curator Tsugawa and the staff member Tamada.

The former toured the children's book area on the third floor.

The latter was moving books from the warehouse.

Maya Tachibana sneaked into the storeroom, pulled out a pistol, and used a doll to hold the muzzle. She then approached the employee, Tamada, from behind and fired a shot.

boom!

A muffled gunshot rang out, but the sound was muffled by the doll and went unnoticed.

The employee, Yutian, collapsed to the ground, and a pool of blood quickly flowed from beneath him.

Maya Tachibana dragged the body to the corner of the wall, covered it up briefly, and then found Tamada's phone number and sent a text message to the curator, Tsugawa.

[The goods have arrived at the warehouse; there's a problem with them.]

A moment later, the curator, Tsugawa, hurriedly arrived at the storeroom and closed the door behind him.

Just as he was searching for Tamada, Tachibana Maya suddenly appeared behind him and smashed a pistol into the back of his head.

Boom!
