"I think this ability is very useful. Anyway, thank you, Brother Bai."

Conan smiled and felt more relaxed than ever before.

From now on, please call me the Master of Lie Detection!

In addition, sensing the other person's mood and likes and dislikes is also a very useful ability.

I'll try this out with more people later. This ability should have many different uses.

Chapter 172 Conan: I Want to Join the Organization

As more and more toy bombs were found, carefully stacked together, and their wires cut by professionals, Conan couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Although Teiji Moritani was silenced by the organization, fortunately, this incident should be resolved smoothly and casualties will be minimized.

"Brother Bai, tell me, who helped make Moriya Teiji's bomb? He alone couldn't have made so many doll-shaped bombs in just a few days."

"Probably other peripheral members of the organization. Even though they are peripheral members, their status actually varies a lot.

For example, many underworld forces are also vassals of the organization, and even the team leaders may not necessarily be given code names.

Without code names, everyone from the team leader to the ordinary thugs are actually considered peripheral members of the organization.

What is important is not the difference in status but the relationship of trust.

As a member of the organization, you can hire other members to help you do things in a very simple way by spending money.

In other words, we can ask for assistance from the organization by issuing tasks.”

"This structure is ridiculous, isn't it? How many people are there in this organization?"

"I don't know." Bai Mu shook his head slightly.

In the original work, the organization only has a few codenamed members, two or three big cats and small cats, most of whom are undercover agents.

"Twenty-two years ago, I was chatting with Sharon about the stupidity of many organizations."

"If I were the leader of an organization, I would set up an adventurer's guild similar to those in light novels and recruit people openly."

"Outsiders can issue tasks to the organization, and members of the organization can also issue tasks..."

"At that time, I spent the whole day traveling with Sharon, looking for treasures everywhere, and talked so much that I almost forgot what I said specifically."

"But she obviously took my words to heart."

"As far as I know, the organization today has about six or seven hundred codenamed members under Chris, about a hundred under Rum, and dozens under Gin."

"But the vast majority of codename members actually play their respective roles in their daily lives, such as legislators, police officers, school principals, entrepreneurs, etc."

"In the eyes of many people, I'm not doing anything bad, and I'm not joining an illegal organization; it's just a loose guild."

"For promotions and salary increases, for a stable life, for making more money, for cleaning out corrupt officials, for punishing evildoers, for secretly maintaining world peace, and so on."

"Each code member has a different identity and different ideas. The peripheral members they are responsible for naturally have different goals as well."

"If you're unemployed in middle age and facing the pressure of paying a mortgage and supporting a family, someone from this organization will come to you and tell you they can give you a high-paying job without the risk of being fired."

"If you fail in stock trading, become penniless, and owe a lot of money, the organization will tell you that they can take over your loan and give you ways to make money."

"If you have no hope of getting a promotion, are being bullied by your boss all day, and your wife is secretly having an affair with him, someone in the organization will tell you that they can give you a promotion and allow you to surpass your original boss."

"And the price of all this is that you'll have to obey the organization's orders from time to time and do things that go against your conscience. Do you agree?"

"Well... maybe you'll be scared and want to refuse, but when you find out what you're asked to do is just to make things difficult for your enemy, maybe even send him to jail or kill him directly, and there's no price to pay."

"I think few people would refuse, right?"

“For some things, once you take the first step and the bottom line is broken, there’s no turning back.”

Conan remained silent. Who doesn't have some hardships living in this world?

If an organization specifically seeks out those who are on the brink of a cliff and extends an olive branch to them, even if they know it is a thorny vine, I think few people would be able to refuse.

After all, most people in this world cannot resist temptation.

The reason why I was not tempted was simply because the chips were not right.

"I want to join the organization!"

"you sure?"

"Yes, I'm sure! I won't do anything bad, and with a child's body like this, I can't do anything bad. But I want to see with my own eyes what the organization is like."

Conan took a deep breath and said again:

"It's all just hearsay. I heard some from Amuro, some from my dad, and some from you."

“But at the end of the day, I still don’t understand the organization.”

"So, I want to join the organization. Only after I actually understand it can I make more judgments."

Looking at the little boy in front of her, Miyano Akemi couldn't help but sigh.

Kudo Shinichi, ah Kudo Shinichi, I want to escape from the organization but I can't. You can obviously stay out of it, why do you want to join the organization?

After hesitating for a long time, he couldn't help but speak up to dissuade her:

"Conan, you'd better think about it again. What Mr. Bai said is actually only part of the story. It's very one-sided."

"As a peripheral member of the organization, I can tell you my personal experience."

"In the past few years, I have basically received a mission every month. If the mission is completed, I will receive a certain amount of money, but if the mission fails, I will owe money to the organization."

"There are all sorts of missions, some involve framing someone, some involve blackmailing a company, some involve stealing business information, and so on..."

Before Miyano Akemi finished speaking, Miyano Shiho couldn't help but interrupt:

"Sister, have you always been doing these tasks?"

"Yes."

"You probably haven't asked your supervisor?"

"??? Who's in charge?"

"Each codenamed member is responsible for a large number of peripheral members and is also in charge of task allocation.

The tasks here are all experimental, but when I heard code members chatting in the group before, they all divided the task allocation among a few peripheral members they trusted.

As an external member, you can actively ask the person in charge and check the task list every month, and you must accept at least one task every month.

If someone does not accept any tasks that month, they will be forced to take on the tasks that have been left over.

Sister, you should be assigned the remaining tasks every month, right?"

"ah……??"

Miyano Akemi's face is in a mess. Can I choose my own mission? If I can, what on earth have I been doing all these years?

"I...I thought the missions were all assigned by the higher-ups."

"If that's the case, then doesn't it all depend on the person in charge's mood and their relationship with the other party?"

"Isn't it always like this?"

"That organization can't develop to this extent."

Miyano Shiho stole a glance at the white curtain and spoke again:

"Because my phone has no signal, I can't show you my Shirley chat room, but there are so many things to do every month, plus payroll and work progress reports, I really don't have the energy to assign tasks one by one."

"I'm responsible for over 200 researchers and eight projects in total. If I had to assign tasks to everyone and then check on them one by one, I wouldn't have anything else to do every month."

"Sister, if I'm not mistaken, you should have been singled out by that woman Vermouth and excluded from the organization's system."

"Although I don't need to take on any more missions, I don't have any source of income, and there's no room for advancement."

At this moment, Miyano Akemi felt a tingling sensation on her scalp. She thought she had gotten the upper hand, but now it sounded like she had suffered a great loss.

"I work for a pharmaceutical company and receive a regular salary."

"That's deducted from my share."

"Uh……"

Why do I feel like I've unknowingly become a scumbag who's hiding behind my sister and sucking her blood?

Hearing this, Conan gradually understood the structure of the organization and couldn't help asking:

"If I join the organization, which codename will I be subordinate to? Can I meet Gin, the one who drugged me?"

"Unfortunately, although you are a genius, you look like an elementary school student. The organization probably doesn't think highly of you. Maori Kogoro is about the same." Bai Mu shook his head slightly.

Although Chris could accept Conan, this was obviously not what he wanted.

"I am willing!"

Kogoro Mori didn't hesitate at all.

Bai Mu did not deliberately hide anything when he spoke, and by hearing this, he had roughly understood it.

This is the best way to find intelligence about the organization.

"Gin is directly in charge of the action team. Their main job is to kill people. Externally, they kill those who are enemies of the organization, and internally, they kill those who betray the organization. This kind of work is obviously not suitable for you."

"In addition, as one of the organization's top leaders, Gin is also responsible for managing the dozens of codenamed members. Some are responsible for intelligence gathering, some are responsible for technology, some are responsible for combat training, and some are responsible for collecting funds."

"The organization has also recruited a number of detectives, most of whom are affiliated with the intelligence team."

"I heard from Chris that the main reason those detectives joined the organization was to use their connections to better gather intelligence. Of course, some also joined for the money."

"If you want to join Gin's intelligence team, maybe you can ask Miyano Akemi. She used to be a peripheral member of an intelligence team under Gin."

"Ms. Akemi, please!" Kogoro Mouri lowered his head slightly.

Miyano Akemi was filled with anguish. Why did she have to step into this quagmi? Wouldn't it be better to stay away from the organization?

"I'm just a peripheral member, a marginal person with no status. It doesn't make any sense for me to recommend you to join the organization."

"If you really want to join the organization, why not try finding another detective?"

"As for which detectives are members of the organization, I don't know, but those who can join the organization must be famous detectives. They have no shortage of cases or money."

"Thank you, that's enough to know." Conan smiled slightly.

Chapter 173: Kudo Shinichi's younger brother Edogawa Conan

It seems that we need to investigate famous detectives from all over the country next.

There is no shortage of money, this is an important information.

As long as you screen out the right target, go to their door, and use your superpowers to identify lies to test them, it will be easy to find out whether they are true or false.

While pondering, Conan suddenly found that Ran Mouri was holding a mobile phone and looking around in the distance.

"Sister Xiaolan!"

Hearing Conan's shout, Xiaolan ran over quickly.

"Conan, what happened to your head?"

"I accidentally fell. Sister Xiaolan, why are you here?"

Hearing this, a trace of loss flashed across Xiaolan's face, but it disappeared in a flash.

"Nothing, I made an appointment with your Shinichi brother to meet here, but he must have been too busy and forgot."

Conan's heart tightened and he instantly remembered the previous phone call.

At that time, Xiaolan asked me to meet her at the Beihua Municipal Building today to watch a movie together.

But this morning I received a call from Moritani Teiji in disguise, and I have been running around, completely forgetting about this matter.

Although Xiaolan was just talking to herself on the phone at the time, I did not explicitly refuse.

Feeling Xiaolan's sadness and disappointment at the moment, Conan lowered his head silently.

sorry……

I wish the superpower I just gained wasn’t the ability to identify lies or moods, but the ability to grow bigger or smaller.

Before this, he had actually thought about asking his cousin Kuroba Kaito, who looked almost exactly like him, to come and help.

But after much hesitation, I finally did not seek his help.
