I'm in Conan, but I'm in Ace Attorney

Chapter 476 The Disappearance of Miyano Akemi

"…Even if you say so, I did not develop APTX4869 as a poison. It is just that this drug that can cause huge changes in body tissues is used to poison others."

The shrunken Miyano Shiho was silent for a moment before answering Conan's question, but her thoughts were a little confused because she had no idea how her identity was leaked.

As the current developer of the drug APTX4869, the confidentiality level of Miyano Shiho's identity is not low, and even if there is an insider in the organization who knows her code name and real name, it is impossible to determine her identity so easily.

Because she now appears as a little girl who has taken APTX4869 to regain her youth, while Miyano Shiho, codenamed Shirley, is an -year-old woman, and the two images are completely inconsistent——————

(Could it be that because my hair color is the same as before, my identity will be confirmed immediately after I shrink?)

A thought flashed through Miyano Shiho's mind, but she quickly ruled out this possibility because it was too incredible. How could someone judge someone's identity based on the color of their hair?

People nowadays are not as conservative as they used to be. Black hair is no longer mainstream. Even though she rarely leaves the laboratory, she is well aware that people on the street already have colorful hair.

In fact, Conan had no idea what Miyano Shiho looked like before she became like this. He just chose to believe the information that Genkou told him and said it.

"Kudo Shinichi, I originally planned to use the results of my investigation on you to get ahead of the others, but I didn't expect that the plan could not keep up with the changes... In the past few months, you seem to have a deep understanding of the organization."

"In that case, you should already know where I worked and developed drugs before, right? That's right, it was the pharmaceutical company that caught fire today due to an accident."

Since concealing information would not bring about expected results, Miyano Shiho simply revealed all the information she knew. She now urgently needed an answer regarding the organization, but she had no way of knowing the answer.

"Since the 4869th, the atmosphere in the company has become tense. The peripheral members who were originally used to protect and monitor me have directly asked me to stop the research and production of ATPX."

"On the 4869st, those people seemed to be arguing about something. I heard them say that they wanted to get rid of the peripheral members in Tokyo and hide the organization as much as possible. At the same time, they took all the information about APTX from me."

"And today, I was detained directly in a room in the laboratory. Then they set a fire, intending to burn down the entire building along with me, to completely eliminate the possibility of exposure."

"But I was not burned to death. There is no body of mine in that building. The organization will hunt me down because of this... I can just leave and divert the organization's attention, or I can tell you the organization's information."

"It's just that I want to know the situation of one person. I want to know the current whereabouts of my sister Miyano Akemi. With the public security as your backing, it shouldn't be difficult for you to find information if you know her name."

...Miyano Akemi? Who?

Conan pushed his glasses and used a flash of white light to hide the surprise in his eyes, because he had no impression of the name Miyano Akemi, and the public security department was not his backing.

The one who could really mobilize the public security to conduct an investigation was his animal friend. The hedgehog was still out dealing with the retired Phantom Thief Lady, so he couldn't make a promise to Miyano Shiho on the spot.

No one is qualified to make decisions for another person, let alone that other person is his friend.

(Shiho Miyano's position in the organization should be quite high. It would be strange if she was not taken seriously, since she was able to create APTX4869, a drug that could be considered a "dream" even if it was used simply as a poison.)

(But she was abandoned by the organization... Was it because the recent crackdown on the organization was so severe that they no longer had the energy to take away this important scientist?)

(Miyano Akemi... If she had a code name, Miyano Shiho should have said it, but she didn't, which means she is a peripheral member or grassroots member of the Black Organization.)

(If I were a high-ranking member of the Black Organization, then if Miyano Shiho had already decided to abandon her, I would most likely also dispose of Miyano Akemi to avoid any uncontrollable special effects.)

(That is to say, Miyano Shiho's sister Miyano Akemi should have been killed by the organization several hours after the pharmaceutical company was burned down...)

Conan's thoughts were racing, but he suddenly stopped thinking because, as a detective, he could never assume someone's death before confirming with his own eyes whether the other person was really dead.

Therefore, no matter from which aspect, he must investigate Miyano Akemi's affairs next to obtain Miyano Shiho's help.

"What? Are you talking about Miyano Akemi? Conan, you should have seen her before."

The door was pushed open with a whoosh, and before the sharp thorns entered the room, the hedgehog's voice came in first.

"There is no such thing."

Before Xiang Yuanguang could finish speaking, Conan had already given his answer.

Suddenly, the blue hedgehog friend poked his head in with a look of confusion in his eyes.

"Are you sure? I may have remembered the name wrong, but anyway, Miyano Akemi disguised herself as a rustic girl to look for her father, uncle, or uncle... isn't there such a thing?"

"No, there has never been such a person in Maori Office, unless the Miyano Akemi you mentioned appeared during the time I left the office, but even if that's the case, what you said doesn't make sense."

Conan pushed his glasses up, insisted on his opinion, and emphasized it again.

"Because if Uncle Maori wants to conduct an investigation, he will tell Xiaolan first, and then Xiaolan will repeat the situation to me after school, so if he receives such a strange commission, I will definitely know it."

"Xiang Yuan, perhaps your universal intelligence source has finally made a mistake at this time."

...Xiang Yuanguang, the most frequently mentioned name in pharmaceutical companies these days.

Miyano Shiho raised her head and carefully observed the tall and strong stranger with a hedgehog head, but the smile on his face made it difficult for people to feel fear towards him.

(…I feel silly. Is it my imagination?)

Scientists from the Black Organization quietly gave their own evaluations.

Kuroba Kaito, who was standing next to him, had no idea what they were saying, but he still pretended to "completely understand" and tried hard to maintain his poker face.

All in all, it sounds like the search in Tokyo is very intense right now, so he should temporarily stop his gem-hunting journey, cancel this operation, and have a good rest for a few days!

Chapter 477 Father? Sister?

—————May 31, 8:30 p.m.——————

—————Tokyo area, Mori Office——————

【Remember the domain name of this site, Taiwan Novel Network → twkan.com】

The famous detective Kogoro Mouri returned triumphantly. Although the original client, Kimie Tsujimura, was in jail, the person whom Kimie Tsujimura commissioned to investigate - that is, Sachiko Katsuragi - still paid the reward.

I have to say that although Kimie Tsujimura herself is like an old shrew and a stubborn person, her daughter is sensible, beautiful and gentle. No wonder Tsujimura Takayoshi would often challenge his stepmother for Sachiko Katsuragi!

"Hey, let me see if there's any show by Ms. Yoko recently. If not, I'll go check out the latest horse races to see if there are any amazing new racehorses!"

Uncle Maori relaxed himself as usual, sat in his reclining chair, turned on the TV, took a sip of beer happily, and immediately felt refreshed.

"Sure enough, after finishing the commission, I just want to drink beer and watch TV to feel comfortable! Really, why did that brat Xiang Yuan just leave as soon as he said he would, but I still have to cooperate with the Public Security Bureau and the Metropolitan Police Department's investigation?"

Tick, tick, tick, tick.

When he heard the sound of footsteps, Kogoro Mouri didn't even need to look at the source of the sound, he knew who the person who appeared was - yes, it was his daughter Ran Mouri.

At this time, Miss Mao Lilan pushed open the door and saw the beer can in her father's hand at a glance. Her eyebrows twitched at this time, but in the end she did not give her comment.

Since Kogoro Mori was indeed very busy these days, she had no intention of blaming her father at this time, or depriving him of the right to enjoy one of his many bad habits.

Mao Lilan just sighed and then asked with some confusion.

"Dad, do you know where Conan went? He doesn't seem to be at home. I couldn't find him... It's so late. He's just a weak, pitiful and helpless elementary school student. Where would he go?"

...Hmm? Conan is missing? When did it happen?

Uncle Maori sat up suddenly, with a question mark above his head. Then he took out his mobile phone from his arms and saw an unread message when he opened the screen.

This is the message from Dr. Agasa, which means that you are cooperating with the police investigation and are not available to take Conan with you for the time being, so he will take Conan to his house to stay for one night and will send Conan back tomorrow.

As a result, the bones that had just straightened up suddenly became loose again. He slowly lay down on his chair, and then spoke slowly.

"It's okay, it's okay. The kid went to stay at Dr. Agasa's house today and will be back tomorrow... Besides, I don't think there's any need to worry about the kid. I think he can live much longer than us."

"It was only when I was taking a statement at the police station today that I suddenly realized that this kid is really not that good at surviving. Every time he encounters a dangerous situation, he disappears, and when he reappears, the incident is over."

"Back then, there were terrorists everywhere and bombs on the Silver Star. I was almost hit by the terrorists' gunmen or blown away by the bombs. But that kid was injured everywhere and nothing happened..." Uncle Maori hadn't finished his words when the door of Maori's office was pushed open. The next moment, a rustic girl with two pigtails and a pair of black-framed glasses appeared in front of them.

Without waiting for Mouri Ran to say hello, the girl had already [locked] on Mouri Kogoro. She rushed to the desk, grabbed Mouri Kogoro's hand holding the beer can with a crying voice, and then cried.

"Mr. Detective, please help me find my dad! I heard that you are a famous detective in Tokyo, so I specifically came to find you for help!"

“Oh, oh…ah?”

Kogoro Mouri looked at Ran Mouri in a daze, and Ran Mouri's little face also showed the same confusion and helplessness. There was only one question in the minds of the father and daughter - who are you?

"My mother died when I was very young. My father is my only relative... If anything happens to my father, then I... wu... I..."

The girl's tears dripped along the curve of her lenses and fell to the ground. Seeing her crying like this, Kogoro Mouri didn't care about whether to rest or not. He immediately became serious and spoke seriously.

"I understand. Then I, the famous detective Maori Kogoro, will accept your commission. Don't worry, I will definitely find your father. So, Miss, can you tell me everything that happened?"

After getting a clear promise from Kogoro Mouri, the girl finally stopped crying. She sat on the sofa next to her, then rummaged in her cloth bag with trembling hands, and finally took out a photo.

Maori Ran took the photo for Maori Kogoro. She glanced at it and saw a fat man in a white shirt holding a black kitten. He looked familiar, but she didn't know where she had seen him.

The photo soon reached the hands of Kogoro Mouri. He glanced at it and suddenly his eyes froze. He had seen this photo before. It was on the TV program that had just been broadcast. Isn't this one of the people who died today?

Kenzo Hirota was shot dead by an unknown person!

Uncle Maori's face instantly became extremely serious. For a moment, he didn't know how to tell this result to the girl who had just stopped crying. This fact was too cruel for her.

But in the end, Kogoro Mouri sighed and decided to be the bad guy himself. He turned on the TV, tuned back to the news channel, and then seriously informed the girl.

"Your father... Kenzo Hirota has been killed in a shooting this afternoon. Sorry, miss, if you want to find your father, I can help you contact the Metropolitan Police Department so that you can see him for the last time."

The girl was struck by lightning. She stood there in a daze. The shock and sadness on her face were definitely real. Finally, she just murmured something, turned around and rushed out of Maori's office.

However, Kogoro Mouri had drunk beer and his senses were not very clear, so he did not hear clearly what the girl said, but Ran Mouri, who was closer to the girl, felt something strange.

Because the girl wasn’t talking about “father”…but “sister”?

At this time, the public security officer who was responsible for observing the Maori Office outside took out the walkie-talkie to inform his superiors that an unexpected visitor had appeared in the Maori Office, and his superiors quickly ordered an investigation into the matter.

The final result is surprising...

Chapter 478 The whereabouts of Miyano Akemi

In Xiang Yuanguang's opinion, Miyano Shiho's idea was not wrong. Without knowing Miyano Akemi's current disguised appearance and approximate location, even a famous detective would not be able to find her in a short time.

However, if the public security of this country conducted an investigation using the special mechanism of the secret police, they would be able to quickly find out the current whereabouts of Miyano Akemi.

Xiang Yuanguang touched his chin and nodded slightly, not caring about Conan's somewhat teasing words. He had already known that this world was different from the anime he knew. Now he was just carrying out certain actions according to the contents of his memory.

No matter whether the cat is black or white, a cat you catch is a good cat. It is a skill for a blind cat to catch a dead mouse. If it catches a dead mouse, it is luck; if it doesn’t, it is normal.

"Got it. I'll call the police now to ask. Wait for me."

The blue hedgehog took out his cell phone from his pocket. He looked at the phone case and briefly thought about why the phone had not been upgraded yet, then he called Toru Amuro.

This public security officer who is undercover in the organization has been quite busy recently. He has not seen Toru Amuro since the murder case at the diplomatic embassy. The only contact since then was this morning when he called to ask who was in the laboratory.

Didi————Didi————

At this time, Toru Amuro was standing in front of a black luxury car. He looked at the bag full of cash inside with some confusion, his heart full of doubts.

So why was the robber of the 1 billion yen robbery assassinated by an unknown gunman? Was it because the organization had sent him to do this? Then why was the money still there after the man died?

Could it be that the member of the organization responsible for this incident had a hole in his brain, robbing 1 billion yen, killing the robber's accomplice and running away, but forgetting to take the 1 billion yen he had robbed back?

(I always feel like there is something wrong with this matter. A member of the organization would show up at such a critical moment, and do something so nonsensical...)

Toru Amuro subconsciously supported his chin with his fingers. Starting from June 1st, Rum had issued a new order, asking all members of the organization to hide and not take any other actions.

Especially the members of this country's organization were required to eliminate all those who might leak the organization's secrets or politicians who had been contacted but were not stable enough, although he did not receive such an order...

But other members of the organization he knew had received this order, and now they had been hit by a club by him, and were urgently asking if they could catch a new fish.

"Well, according to the description of the only criminal arrested in the 1 billion yen robbery, it seems that there is another woman involved, and yesterday an unidentified woman suddenly approached the Mori Office..."

"It seems that she is the last one that escaped the net?"

Toru Amuro was still thinking about where to go to catch the last criminal, then his cell phone vibrated at an inopportune time. He frowned slightly and took out his phone.

The caller information above is Xiang Yuanguang. This defense lawyer with an unknown source of intelligence and superb martial arts skills has left a deep impression on him more than once. Now he is calling him. Does he already know the truth of what happened this morning?

Snap——————

After the call was connected, Amuro Toru put the phone to his ear and gestured to the police officer next to him. The other police officers immediately lowered their voices to avoid disturbing Amuro Toru's conversation. "This is Zero, Mr. Xiang Yuan. Are you calling me at this time because you already know the whole story of the pharmaceutical company being burned down this morning? Is it convenient to tell me on the phone?"

Although Xiang Yuanguang did not turn on the hands-free function of the call, everyone at the scene, except Miyano Shiho, had sharp senses, so they could actually hear Amuro Toru's voice very clearly.

It was for this reason that Kuroba Kaito and Conan looked at each other and didn't know what to say for a moment.

Just now, Miyano Shiho said that she was locked in the laboratory of a pharmaceutical company and was almost burned to death along with the entire pharmaceutical company building. As a result, the people from the public security department directly asked about the whole story.

In response, Xiang Yuanguang just turned his head to glance at Miyano Shiho, who couldn't hear the call clearly, and then avoided the topic and talked about Miyano Akemi.

"That matter is not convenient to talk about over the phone. No, it is not convenient for me to talk about it. Mr. Amuro, I would like to ask you to help me investigate the people involved in a case - the 10 billion yen robbery that happened recently."

"Among the criminals, there is a woman named Miyano Akemi. Her whereabouts are currently unknown. Does the public security department have any information about Miyano Akemi? Yes, she may be using the alias Hirota Masami now."

Just like the reactions of Kuroba Kaito and Conan, Amuro Toru also raised his eyebrows, realizing that things were not simple. He covered his phone with his hand, turned around and glanced at the police present.

However, he couldn't see any of them leaking the information of this operation in advance to Xiang Yuanguang. This was really strange. He took over this mission after the pharmaceutical company was burned down.
