Detective Conan: Starting with Yukiko covered in black stockings!

Gin glanced up, and the bar owner quickly placed a glass of wine in front of Cao Yu.

As for Cao Yu's unauthorized bombing of the shrine, he decided to turn a blind eye and pretend nothing had happened.

"Dry!"

Cao Yu picked up his wine cup and drank it all in one gulp.

"Bourbon, you can come out now!"

As Gin finished speaking, Amuro Tooru, dressed in casual clothes and sporting light blond hair, came to the bar.

"This is Du Kang, a new member of the organization. His bomb-making skills are unparalleled. From now on, you two will be partners. Recently, a lot of rats have infiltrated the outer ranks, and we need you to clean them out."

After Gin finished speaking, he lit a cigarette.

"Is this a new mission? How much funding is provided? Is the bonus calculated per person?"

Cao Yu asked three questions in quick succession.

The idea of ​​pairing Amuro Tooru with him to clean up the rats that had infiltrated the outer circle was purely for comedic effect.

An undercover agent sent by the island nation's public security bureau to the brewery, a man who considers the island nation his life—it would be strange if he didn't secretly cause trouble.

Nevertheless, Cao Yu did not intend to expose Amuro Tooru's identity, keeping a trump card in case it came in handy later.

"Money, money, money, are you obsessed with money?"

Vodka was very dissatisfied.

"I'm risking my life, working on the edge of a knife, just for a pittance. I'm not doing charity work for free. Your greatness is your business, don't impose it on me."

Cao Yu rolled his eyes and retorted without holding back.

Don't even think about working like a slave for the distillery.

I absolutely will not accept a task unless the money is right.

"you……"

"Vodka, say less."

Gin glared at him, which made Vodka shrink back in fear.

"The mission will require a lot of funding. We'll allocate $5,000 to each of you for now. If that's not enough, we can apply for more. As for the bonus... there's no time limit for this mission, and we can't be sure if the rats have been completely eradicated, so it's a bit of a hassle."

"The bonus will be calculated per person; $50,000 for each rat cleared."

After a moment's thought, Gin offered a solution.

"Okay, I have no objection!"

Cao Yu counted on his fingers for a moment and immediately expressed his opinion.

$50,000 per head, there are plenty of undercover agents infiltrating the distillery, and cleaning them all out would be incredibly lucrative.

"I don't have any objection either!"

Amuro Tooru was an undercover agent, so naturally he didn't care how much the reward was.

"Bourbon, it's been a pleasure working with you. Give me a call if you need anything."

Cao Yu left a message, got up, and left gracefully.

After finishing our business, staying any longer would be a waste of time. We might as well go home and spar with Vermouth.

……

Parking lot outside the bar!

Amuro Tooru sat in the car for a moment, then took out his phone and made a call.

"Kaze, the Black Organization is about to launch a new round of purges against its peripheral members. Notify all public security undercover agents to be on their safety and terminate their undercover missions if necessary."

"A new member has joined the Black Organization. His exact identity is currently unknown, but I suspect that he is very likely Cao Yu, who has been causing chaos in Tokyo recently. I will send you his photo later. You must find out his background."

"That's all for now. I'll call you back if there are any new developments."

Snapped!

After sending out the secretly taken photos, Amuro Tooru took out his SIM card, broke it in half, wrapped it in a tissue, and threw it into the trash can outside the car window.

Chapter 60 Petty Thief, Trying to Rob Someone?

In the blink of an eye, three days have passed since the last mission was completed.

Vermouth investigated through the brewery's intelligence network and completely dispelled her doubts about Miyano Akemi's identity.

There's no other reason than that we can't find any flaws, which is actually quite normal.

They don't even know who Hua Lao is. He's a legendary tycoon who can carve out a whole street in Okinawa and act as a local emperor. He may not be as wealthy as the distillery, but he's definitely not much worse in terms of connections.

Getting someone's identity sorted out is a piece of cake.

When Cao Yu woke up in the morning, Vermouth was staring intently at him.

"Why are you looking at me? Do you want to do morning exercises?"

"You'd never think of that. I'm wondering if your cousin should be sent to school. She's almost eight years old; she should be in first grade. Do you want her to stay at home forever?"

Snapped!

Upon hearing this, Cao Yu couldn't help but slap his forehead.

If Vermouth hadn't reminded him, he would have completely forgotten about it.

Although the shrunken Akemi Miyano doesn't need to go to school, she still has to go to school to complete the role she's supposed to play.

"Yes, Madam is very thoughtful..."

"Stop! I'm not your wife!"

Vermouth adhered to her principles, and her relationship with Cao Yu was mutually beneficial.

Working at the distillery meant taking on dangerous missions, where one could die any day or night, and Vermouth didn't want to be tied down by family.

"Whether it is or not, I'm afraid it's not up to you."

After Cao Yu finished speaking, he grabbed Vermouth and started doing morning exercises.

"I'm talking to you about serious matters, can you stop being so frivolous?"

Vermouth was completely uninterested and forcefully pushed Cao Yu aside.

"Okay, let's get down to business!"

"My cousin's schooling problem urgently needs to be solved, but my status in this island nation is special, and I lack connections. I wonder if you, a big star, would be willing to help?"

The island nation's police withdrawing the arrest warrant does not mean they have given up the investigation; Kudo Yusaku's previous visit to the police station is the best proof of this.

Cao Yu knew that if he stepped in to find a school for Miyano Akemi, he would most likely be rejected.

"Here's a set of radio calisthenics for you as a reward."

"Pah, that's not a reward, that's a punishment."

"..."

At noon, Cao Yu and Vermouth led Shiho Miyano out.

Since it's time to go to school, essential supplies such as school bags and stationery need to be properly prepared.

The three of them walking together looked just like a warm and loving family of three.

In fact, Akemi Miyano was very reluctant to go to school, especially to start first grade, but she had no choice but to compromise for the sake of the bigger picture.

The shopping mall was bustling with people!

Cao Yu never expected to run into Eri and Yukiko.

The two were bored, so they took Ran and Conan shopping to pass the time.

"What an adorable girl, Mr. Cao Yu, could she be your daughter?"

When Eri saw the miniature version of Akemi Miyano, she couldn't help but ask a question.

When Yukiko and Ran Mouri saw Cao Yu and Vermouth together, they were shocked and a hint of unease flashed across their faces as their previous encounters came flooding back to them.

However, since they were in a public place, they couldn't show it.

Conan, on the other hand, held his head in his hands, his mind filled with doubt.

Good grief, so you're not even pretending anymore?

He really couldn't understand why Cao Yu, who had committed many serious crimes, would still dare to appear in public places. Was he really not afraid of being arrested?

"Attorney Fei, please don't misunderstand. Her name is Murong Qing, and she is my cousin. She will be living in the island nation from now on. I came today to buy her the stationery she needs for school. I plan to contact a school in the next couple of days to enroll her in the first grade of elementary school."

Cao Yu waved his hand and revealed Miyano Akemi's new identity.

"Is that so? I'm an old friend of the principal of Teitan Elementary School. Why don't we put her in Conan's class? She won't be unable to find a playmate when she first arrives."

"May I?"

"Of course, it's just a phone call away."

Eri Kisaki always valued efficiency, and after speaking, she immediately took out her phone and made a call.

Ran Mouri noticed that her elderly mother and Cao Yu seemed to know each other very well, and she immediately became flustered. She tugged at Eri Kisaki's sleeve and pulled her aside.

"Mom, are you friends with Cao Yu?"

"We're friends, I guess!"

"You'd better stay away from him, he's awful."

"Bad? Xiaolan, are you influenced by the news and have some misunderstanding about Mr. Cao Yu?"

Cao Yu gave Fei Yingli's first impression of being a chivalrous knight-errant who stood up for justice.

Furthermore, the arrest warrant has long been withdrawn, and the island nation's police have ceased their pursuit, which is sufficient proof that he is not a bad person.

"It's not a misunderstanding. I don't know how to explain it either. Just listen to me."

Ran Mouri found it difficult to speak, so she told Eri Kisaki about her ordeal.

"Okay, I'll make the call now!"

Eri was completely baffled and could only nod in response.

After a while, the call was connected.

After discussing Shiho Miyano's schooling, she hung up the phone.

After all, she's the undefeated queen of the legal profession; she still has face to save.

"Mr. Cao Yu, the principal of Teitan Elementary School has agreed to admit Murong Qing and will arrange for her to be in the same class as Conan. Remember to take her to complete the enrollment procedures on Monday."

Eri put away her phone and brushed her bangs aside.

"You've helped me a lot, I don't know how to thank you enough."

Solving Miyano Akemi's enrollment problem is of great importance to Cao Yu.

This is the best way to conceal Akemi Miyano's true identity.

"No need to be polite. Didn't you help me before? By the way, we agreed to have a drink together last time, but I haven't been able to find the time these past few days. How about today?"

Fei Yingli brought up the old matter again, asking Cao Yu for his opinion.

"Great, it'll be lively with 417 people."

Cao Yu had no reason to refuse.

The group strolled around for a while longer, bought what they needed, and then went to the counter to pay.

boom!

Just as Cao Yu was taking out his money, a gunshot rang out, which immediately frightened many customers into scattering and fleeing.

Looking back, several men dressed in black, wearing black stockings and carrying rifles and pistols, stormed into the mall.

In the blink of an eye, the mall was completely taken over by the men in black.

"Don't move! Anyone who moves will be killed!"

"We brothers are only here to make money and have no intention of taking lives. We hope everyone will cooperate."

It was a robbery!
