Stay away from Conan.

"you……"

Faced with this person's sudden expression, Shiho Miyano could roughly understand what he was trying to say—

Indeed, if he himself is a cousin of Kyosuke Mitarai, then his appearance is similar to Kyosuke Mitarai, which is something that cannot be changed. Therefore, it cannot be said that when he wanted to approach me with this appearance, he was deliberately trying to make me lower my guard.

But that's not the problem right now!
Soon, Shiho Miyano snapped out of her reverie, looked at Takato in front of her, and said solemnly:
Why are you here? How did you get in?

At this moment, for Shiho Miyano, she was ultimately Sherry of the organization, and therefore, she couldn't help but realize the biggest problem in the situation before her—

How did this guy infiltrate? He has no idea. If the organization finds out, he's doomed!
Therefore, after questioning him in this way, Shiho Miyano prepared to severely reprimand him and tell him to leave immediately.

However, right after Shiho Miyano asked her question, Takato responded directly:
"You know I can disguise myself, so you should be able to figure out how I got in right away, right?"

Seeing Gao Yuan's calm and composed demeanor, completely lacking the tension one would expect after sneaking into the organization and being discovered, it was Miyano Shiho who became nervous instead.

What if someone sees you having contact with this person later and you don't leave? But you can't just call someone to take him away, can you?

Ultimately unable to bring herself to be completely ruthless, Shiho Miyano, after a moment's thought, said seriously to Takato:
"Is this the time to talk about these things? You infiltrated here and are using the organization's computers... Aren't you worried that your actions will be discovered by others in the organization?"

“That’s inevitable, Sherry…”

In response to Shiho Miyano's words, Takato remained calm, turned around, faced the computer in front of him, and began to open the document he had just found, seemingly preparing to continue reading.

Upon hearing Takato's answer, Shiho Miyano, who found it even more incomprehensible that Takato's purpose was incomprehensible, froze for a moment—

He said it was inevitable, meaning he was aware of the consequences of doing so, so...

"Or rather, it's a bit strange that you're the only one here so far. Logically speaking, the organization should have noticed something amiss by me looking through their internal database like this. They would probably have notified the organization members in the monitoring room, and they would have immediately realized that they couldn't contact them. In that case, they would be 100% certain that something was wrong here."

"So logically, they should either continue trying to contact other people here to check on the situation, or..."

At this point, Gao Yuan paused, and amidst Miyano Shiho's astonished expression, he stated his assessment of the current situation:

"To be on the safe side, they did nothing here and acted as if everything was normal, but in reality, they had secretly sent people to investigate the situation and prepare to eliminate any problems that might arise!"

After Gao Yuan bypassed permissions several times to search through the organization's internal database without encountering much resistance, he roughly guessed what the organization might be doing.

In other words, while everything appeared calm, the organization was actually waiting for an opportunity to eliminate any potential problems at once. Therefore, having guessed this, Gao Yuan felt no urgency whatsoever as he continued his actions—

Anyway, it's just a dream world. Even if we fail this time, we can just spend the bounty to come back. And with this experience, we'll be able to do this much more easily in the future, and maybe even go further.

After all, the ultimate goal is to search for the information one needs from the dream world of the past.

Thus, operating the computer, Gao Yuan first glanced at the newly opened document, the list of members of parliament the organization was trying to contact, quickly confirming their general affiliations. He then continued browsing the other documents, since he couldn't possibly memorize all the names.

"Since you know that...aren't you afraid of dying?"

Meanwhile, seeing Gao Yuan still frantically browsing information on the computer, Shiho Miyano roughly understood that Gao Yuan was purposefully retrieving some information. However, Shiho Miyano couldn't understand why, if this person had such an ability, he had to fight to the death at this moment.
If other members of the organization do appear next, regardless of their fate, how should I deal with myself?
Therefore, Shiho Miyano asked with a very serious expression.

At this point, Gao Yuan, however, remained calm and seemingly indifferent, saying:

"Since things have come to this, what's the use of being afraid?"

After responding with that, Gao Yuan suddenly seemed to ponder for a moment, then said something rather surprising, leaving Miyano Shiho momentarily stunned—

"Speaking of which... I think you've already investigated some of the clues I mentioned, right? Cointreau worked with your parents back then, and it was that lab fire that allowed him to escape with his life on the spot. While I don't know much about Cointreau's background, I'm certain there's some secret between him and your parents, and the reason he's evaded the organization for so many years must be related to Camus..."

"And thinking about it carefully, Rum poisoned Koji Haneda around that same year, which was Rum's biggest mistake..."

"Looking at it this way, Camus and Rum back then... and Rum eventually became the organization's second-in-command, while Camus gradually faded from view, this point..."

"You know, Rum is a name he inherited from his father, so we can basically guess that the organization was founded at least fifty years ago. So what is the purpose of this organization that has been around for so many years?"
"Could it be that the founder originally just wanted to create a mysterious and terrifying organization that would remain hidden underground for years?"

Thus, Gao Yuan's thoughts were quite scattered. After briefly recounting the message he had recently given to Miyano Shiho, he finally steered the conversation to a very crucial point—

What is the purpose of establishing an organization?
As Gao Yuan recounted his story, Shiho Miyano grew increasingly alarmed and fearful, wondering just how much this man knew!
Can you just say these things so casually?

Shiho Miyano couldn't help but feel an urge to cover Takato's mouth.

But, precisely at that moment, both Takato and Miyano Shiho keenly noticed—
