Detective Conan: Becoming a Zaibatsu - Starting with Joining the Winery

Beika Town, Hayashi Moku's Residence.

Lin Mo got up very early today, crawling out of bed at seven in the morning, because that guy Vodka was coming to visit unexpectedly.

He quickly washed his face, brushed his teeth, and then went to the study.

After all, it's early morning and we haven't eaten yet, so we can't entertain guests in the tea room.

As for the dining room and living room, they are not suitable places either, since what Vodka wants to talk about is definitely private and it is not appropriate for the servants in the house to hear it.

In the study.

Lin Mo sat at his desk in his pajamas when the butler, Ochiai, brought over milk and bread, and also served vodka a cup of coffee.

"Hey, vodka!"

"What are you doing so early in the morning? Why can't you come in the afternoon?"

Lin Mo yawned as he ate.

Meanwhile, on the other side...

Seeing Lin Mo living such a lazy life, Vodka's lips twitched violently, his face full of envy.

Oh well!

Although he could live Lin Mo's life if he wanted to.

But that wasn't his goal; he just wanted to be Gin's underling, so being busy was his normal routine.

no way!

As the leader of the action group, Gin has too many things to do every day.

They poached top talents from various industries for the organization and extorted money from people in various places.

Of course……

The so-called extortion is just a layman's perspective.

But in reality...

Extortion was just a side effect; the real goal was to control the channels.

If a new underground arms dealer emerges today, then Gin needs to recruit and control him. If he can't recruit him, he should just kill him and extort some money from him.

If a certain project or plan of a certain company affects the organization's industry tomorrow, then he needs to go and sabotage it, or take control of it for himself, and extort money from it along the way.

If a certain councilor's campaign slogan or an overall plan affects the organization, then Gin will need to go and find a solution.

and so.

Extortion is just a sideline to make a quick buck; the real goal is to ensure the smooth operation of the large organization!

Of course……

Don't ask why these things aren't delegated to others. If given a choice, Gin would certainly be willing, but the problem is that he simply can't find suitable people to do them.

Most of the other codenamed members have some issues!

Although these missions may appear to be nothing more than sabotage on the surface, they are actually closely related to the core of the organization. Therefore, unless you are sure that the other party is definitely not an undercover agent, and they also need to have a sense of the big picture, be competent in combat, and ensure that things don't escalate, you can only succeed.

Members of this kind of organization are really hard to find!

original……

Gin was pleased with Lin Mo's rise to prominence, after all, Lin Mo was good in every way, and it could be confirmed that he was 100% not an undercover agent.

But, unfortunately.

Before Gin could even treat Lin Mo like a beast of burden, Lin Mo had already caught the eye of the organization's boss.

The organization's boss wants to promote Lin Mo to become the leader of the third largest force within the organization, after Rum and Gin, so as to ensure that when the organization encounters major missions in the future, there will be an additional force that he can directly command.

So, there's no other way!

Lin Mo is still in his developmental stage, so he doesn't need to take on too many tasks in the short term.

Hey!

After a helpless sigh, Vodka's expression turned serious.

"I have to go on a mission later, so I only have two hours of personal time now."

"I'm here to give a final report on the mission involving the Takasugi family!"

"Although the organization mobilized all its resources, it only managed to secure 60% of the industry in the end."

"As the boss instructed, everything will be handed over to you."

"I won't go into the details that are too fragmented; I've already handed them over to Keisuke Oshima."

"The most important ones are the fishing company, the shipping company that controls the two shipping routes, and the financial investment company owned by the Takasugi family."

"That financial investment company controls the island nation, the United States, and Europe, and has invested in nearly eighty companies."

"The most valuable ones are only five or six, and there are only two in the island nation."

"A 32% stake in Mantendo Co., Ltd., and a 13.2% stake in Nichiri TV."

"Now you are the second largest shareholder of Manten. As for Nichiri TV, with the shares you got from the Seiha family, your total of 22.7% is enough to make you the fifth largest shareholder."

"As for the Iga family's businesses, the organization did not choose to take action."

"That's something other conglomerates can't afford to touch. They won't allow anyone else to get their hands on it, and the organization isn't willing to go head-to-head with those conglomerates over something like this."

"Oh, right."

"The organization also owns 12% of the TV station's shares and wants to exchange them for your 1.5% stake in Kurokawa Heavy Machinery. If you are interested, we can proceed with the exchange."

"Of course, it's not mandatory!"

"If you're interested, you can contact Rum directly from now on."

"Next, the second thing!"

"The organization will give you six months to develop. You need to complete the formation of your forces as soon as possible. When that time comes, you will have to take over at least half of the tasks that Gin and I are assigned to."

"The organization will not be giving you any tasks for the next six months!"

"The third thing is about Kiel and Bourbon."

"Based on the performance of the two individuals in this mission, the organization's think tank has now determined that there is an 80% chance that they are spies from other forces, and that they have most likely joined forces, but the organization has not yet found any evidence."

"So Gin asked me to remind you to be careful of these two people from now on."

"If we find evidence, we can take out these two people and then submit the evidence to the organization's intranet afterwards."

Fourth: Pisker!

"This organization's founding member—Kenzo Masuyama!"

"That old guy has been acting a bit unruly lately. The organization's boss gave him a car company because of his age and his significant contributions to the organization."

"That's a real industry that controls core technologies, which gives him a good social status. Even if he's not a tycoon, he still has a huge social influence. Logically speaking, the organization has treated Pisco well."

"But, unfortunately."

"This old man has been secretly contacting his adopted son, Ireland, and it seems he's made contact with the CIA in the US. However, the organization doesn't have enough evidence yet, so they're not ready to take action against him anytime soon..."

"Gin and I have been quite busy lately. Rum has also run into some trouble, getting bogged down by MI6 Europe, so we haven't had time to pay attention to that old man for the time being."

"so……"

"I hope you can find someone to keep an eye on that old man for now, Amaretto."

"After Gin and I finish dealing with what we have to do, we'll focus on taking care of that old bastard."

"Fifth, Matsumoto Kiyonaga!"

"This person officially stepped down as the superintendent of the First Investigation Division yesterday and officially took over as the head of the First Investigation Division. The power he wields deserves the organization's attention."

"so……"

"Considering your relationship with Matsumoto Sayuri, the organization hopes you can win her over as soon as possible. Even if we don't recruit Matsumoto Kiyonaga into the organization, at least if the organization encounters any unexpected events in Tokyo in the future, this person can provide some convenience to the organization in certain situations."

"Of course, this isn't a mission!"

"This is just Gin's personal suggestion; whether you listen to it or not is up to you."

"That's about it!"

"Amaretto, is there anything else you want to ask?"
