Phantom Thief of Heart!but conan

Chapter 1094: I've Got It Back
"Ah, I remember you. A fan of Detective Mori, right?"

Standing opposite Hondou Eisuke, Hoshikawa Teru had a formal smile on his face but was secretly rolling his eyes in his heart.

Just as Tang Ze said, Hondou Eisuke also came to Beido Central Hospital.

After knowing that there was a high probability that Rena Mizunashi was his sister and that there might be a reason for the loss of contact for so many years, Hondou Eisuke was bound to be unable to sit still after seeing the live video of Rena Mizunashi encountering the explosion.

Fortunately, it was Kumail who came to the hospital first, and fortunately, Tangze was well prepared for the person Gin arranged to come and gather intelligence.

"It's Detective Akechi, what a coincidence..."

Hondou Eisuke, who was wearing a hospital gown, looked back and forth between him and the man behind him, and soon revealed a normal smile without any gloom, as if he was really just expressing his feelings about the chance encounter.

"Are you coming to the hospital today because of a case?"

It might not be good to think this way about everyone, but now there was no news about Rena Mizunashi, so he had to be wary of anyone who might approach his sister with ulterior motives.

"That's about right. I'm here to visit a patient." Hoshikawa Teru said vaguely, looking down at Hondou Eisuke's bandaged foot. "Is he hospitalized because of an injury?"

"I went to Shibuya to join in the fun on Halloween, but when I was evacuating, I was accidentally squeezed into the flower bed... I've always had bad luck, there's nothing I can do." Hondou Eisuke took out the words he had prepared long ago and laughed foolishly, but in fact his eyes had subtly glanced at Hoshikawa Teru's hand that was still holding the phone.

This person said he was here to visit the patients, but when I met him, he was basically observing and walking along the wards one by one.

Rather than a targeted visit, this is more like looking for someone...

"Were you also in Shibuya at the time? No wonder. It seems that many injured citizens in Shibuya were sent here for examination."

"Well, this is a rare opportunity. I want to participate in some lively activities and feel the atmosphere of Tokyo..."

Although Hondou Eisuke was chatting awkwardly on the surface, he was already trying hard to think clearly, trying to find a reasonable way to stop this person from staying in the hospital any longer.

Rena Mizunashi's ward is not far from here. Goro Akechi is a detective with extremely strong observation skills.

If we allow this person to continue to inquire, Rena Mizunashi's whereabouts will soon be discovered.

No matter what, we can't let this matter be exposed easily...

Conan was still nervously observing the situation over there when he suddenly felt a light push on his shoulder.

He turned his head and saw that Tang Ze had left the team at some point, followed him around for half a circle, and ran to the department.

"Go ahead if you want to help him." Tang Ze shrugged. "I see that you are distracted. I guess you are not here just to see Pramya. Is it something related to the organization again?"

"Uh..." Conan, who had indeed hitchhiked a ride and was mainly looking for Akai Shuichi, grinned awkwardly.

Although what Tang Ze said was not wrong, was his expression so obvious?
"I'll go hold Mingzhi back. If you have anything to do with him or anything else you want to do, just do it yourself."

Tang Ze has always been good at reading the atmosphere. He didn't worry at all whether his direct suggestion would arouse suspicion. He walked out from the corner and greeted the two people who were awkwardly standing at the door of the ward.

Before Conan could even reach out to stop him, he saw Tang Ze joining the conversation very smoothly and naturally.

"I came here with Detective Mori. Detective Mori was also involved in and in charge of the Shibuya case." Karasawa looked at Hondou Eisuke and gestured in the direction of the reception desk. "If you want to see him, he's still over there explaining the situation to the nurse."

"Detective Mori is here too..." Knowing that Karasawa was trying to find an excuse to get away, Hondou Eisuke took over the conversation and looked hesitantly in the direction of Goro Akechi.

"Yes. I just happen to need a checkup as well." Tang Ze pulled out a checkup form from his bag like a magic trick. "Lan suggested that I go to the cardiology department to get some medicine. It just so happens that I'm on my way there today..."

Having finally found an excuse, Hoshikawa Teru didn't bother waiting for Tang Ze to finish his lie and interrupted him directly: "You came to the hospital for a checkup at the cardiology department? Why, did something irritate you and cause an attack again?"

"This, doesn't really count..."

"Your parents are both doctors, but you are always reluctant to see a doctor." Xingchuan Hui complained half-heartedly, "Or do you still insist that you are fully recovered and have no sequelae, so you don't need to see a doctor?"

He could more or less understand Tang Ze, who had many secrets in his heart and found it difficult to confess his true thoughts to the psychologist, but he still wanted to complain about this guy's overly strong mentality that never wanted to show weakness.

It's fine if you don't find a psychologist or don't trust others, there are people in the group who can do this. What if you find Miss Shiho?
He has had unexplained attacks more than once, but he still doesn't want to admit that he needs help, as if he has already lost...

"I really don't need to see a doctor. I've stopped taking the medicine for such a long time." Tang Ze glanced at him, "Don't just blame me, you are the same. Are you willing to accept psychological treatment?"

"Because I have recovered well and am now living a satisfactory life, I do not need this kind of intervention."

"You don't have the final say on this matter. It depends on what the doctor thinks."

"Hehe, before you talk about others, look at yourself first."

"What's the problem with what I said? Don't you suffer from insomnia?"

After the two of them made a few sarcastic remarks to each other with double entendres, they quickly changed the topic to "We can find out who is sick by checking", and then left the door of Hondou Eisuke's ward in a gesture of pushing each other away.

Seeing their argument getting more intense, Hondou Eisuke, who couldn't get a word in, said: "..."

After watching Tang Ze, who acted as a lightning rod, dragging Akechi Goro and disappearing at the end of the corridor, Conan walked to Hondou Eisuke and smacked his lips.

How should I put it? No wonder Tang Ze insisted that although Akechi Goro was not likable, he could be trusted to some extent.

Although they seem to be speaking rudely, they are actually really friends...

"Conan-kun..." Hondou Eisuke, not knowing whether he should breathe a sigh of relief, looked blankly at the elementary school student who appeared.

"Are you here to see Miss Mizuno?" Seizing the window of opportunity that Tang Ze had won, Conan didn't beat around the bush and said directly, "I know which ward her is in. Come on, she also needs to talk to you about something."

If he doesn't cooperate, Rena Mizunoshi won't be able to get her brother out of this vortex, right?

----

Tang Ze didn't let go of his hand until he was completely out of sight.

He originally needed a reason to leave the sight of Conan and others. Rather than saying that Hoshikawa Teru was dragged there because he bumped into Hondou Eisuke, it would be more accurate to say that Hoshikawa Teru found an excuse to speed up his get off work time.

After all, there are other spies from the organization in the hospital, and it is not appropriate for the two of them to appear in the same frame. Walking into the stairwell, Tang Ze asked Xingchuan Hui about the progress of his work: "Have you taken Matsuda to check the point?"

"Yeah. We've come full circle. The ward for Kusuda Rikumichi has been confirmed." Hoshikawa Teru pointed to his phone, indicating that he had sent a message to Karasawa. "Because of the accident in Shibuya, it's still very busy and chaotic here. We can't give him a chance to ask around."

It is of course impossible to directly record the special identities of Rena Mizunashi and Curacao in the patient list. No conclusion can be drawn just by asking the nurse or checking the list.

However, there are many people in Beido Central Hospital now, and no one knows whether Kusuda Rikumichi will be able to discover it in advance.

Tang Ze fully trusts Shuichi Akai, but he also fully believes that people can cause unimaginable troubles.

"There's basically no problem here, just leave it to me. You and Matsuda go to the next hospital, and then just go to two or three more."

You are all slacking off. Just showing your appreciation is enough. Can you really work seriously for Gin?
It's already very respectful to you that I tell you the correct answer after 72 hours. That's enough.

"Okay." Xingchuan Hui nodded without objection. When he saw Tang Ze turned around and prepared to leave, he suddenly asked, "Is it so obvious that I have insomnia?"

In the Phantom Thieves' villa, each person has his or her own room and fixed living area.

Although Noah can easily monitor everyone's movements and understand everyone's living habits, it is obvious that Tang Ze is not such an idle person. He almost never takes the initiative to inquire about these things. Everyone respects each other.

He thought that he still suffered from insomnia occasionally, and used overtime to cover up his poor sleep, and that he would not be discovered...

"Of course." Tang Ze waved his hand. "It is the commander's duty to understand everyone's status. Okay, stop thinking about these trivial things, finish your work quickly and take a rest."

Before Xingchuan Teru could speak again, Tang Ze quickly left on tiptoe.

He knew what Xingchuan Hui was asking, and he realized that he was so concerned about the status of everyone in the group. This kid might even be a little touched.

I know you are touched, but don’t be moved yet. This is a skill.

I don't know if it was to mock Tang Ze's mental collapse at that time, or just to show the benefits after further discovering the truth, but Leon's Judgment Rank 5 skill gave a passive skill that is both useful and useless.

The name of this skill is "Concern", and its effect is that he can observe all the detailed buffs and debuffs of his teammates who join the formation.

This "detailed" is really detailed, to the extent of increasing the critical hit rate by 1% due to a good mood. This is true if you open the battle log.

Even if Tang Ze didn't want to know that Xingchuan Hui had insomnia, the debuff seemed to be right in front of him when the fight started, and he had no choice but to know it.

"They are a bunch of very thoughtful guys." Thinking of the large and small buff and debuff labels he had seen recently, Tang Ze had a subtle expression.

He has brought back enough people one after another, so many that it is difficult for him to distract himself and understand the specific conditions of each person in detail. Except for Xingchuan Hui, the adults in the group do not need much care and can take good care of themselves.

Therefore, when Tang Ze found out that Asai Narumi was often troubled by nightmares and Miyano Akemi's "anxiety" was almost a permanent feature in the status bar, he was still a little surprised.

When things here are over, he still has to take time out to solve everyone's problems.

"Save the person to the end, send the Buddha to the west, and since we have found him, we can't just kill him and not bury him..."

----

"I have found them all."

Facing the stunned Conan, Akai Shuichi gave this brief answer.

He never mentioned that when Tang Ze handed such a big living person to him, his expression was almost the same as Conan's now. He just shrugged his shoulders, as if the matter was done and there was nothing he could do.

It must be admitted that without Tang Ze's explanation, even if he knew in advance that Curacao was Rum's closest subordinate, Akai Shuichi would not have realized that Curacao was so important to Rum.

Of course, there is no need to say these words to Conan.

"Her code name is 'Curacao'. I don't know much about her, but I know that she has a special ability." Akai Shuichi explained, "She has an extraordinary memory ability, and can use some methods to forcibly record the content of the videos she has read."

"You are so convinced that Gin will come here in person for her..." Realizing something, Conan frowned.

If a code member's most famous ability is her memory, then this person's valuable aspect is probably...

"She is the most capable subordinate of the guy codenamed Rum. She is almost his secretary and assistant." Akai Shuichi's answer was still concise. "In other words, she is a 'database' who has been in the organization for more than ten years."

Conan, who had anticipated this, held his forehead.

Why did he feel as if something similar had already happened?
Whether it's Noah's Ark, Miyano Shiho, or even Curacao now...

Others delete the database and run away, why does the organization always have such important running databases running away? Should this be attributed to the organization's poor treatment or bad luck?

There was silence behind the bed curtains, and in the silence, Hondou Eisuke, who was talking excitedly next door, seemed to be even noisier.

"…So, what you mean is that as long as she wakes up and we can convince her, we can know a lot of important organization intelligence information." Conan concluded.

"That's not true."

"Hmm? I remember you just said that Rum has a high position in the organization and is a veteran. Although I don't know his specific personal information, he has control over many important resources? His secretary, not to mention knowing a lot of secrets, should know more about the code-named members, right?"

"It's not a matter of status. Curacao must know a lot of important things. Maybe her mind contains all the bases or forces of the entire organization in Tokyo."

"It sounds like there's a 'but' at the end..."

"'But', she has lost her memory now. Because of the trauma caused by the explosion, and, um, some psychological reasons. Anyway, she can't even remember her own name now."

"?"

"We can't let the organization find out about this. If that happens, Gin will really choose to blow this place up directly."

"???"
