Conan: Rice Flower Spring

Chapter 12. Born evil little devil

"That's a good point, but this is not within our scope of work. Let those who should worry about it worry about it."

Lin Longma took the remote control and pressed the play button. The last part of the video slowly began to play.

When Tequila said that the company he was dealing with might be a criminal group, Maori Kogoro did not react at all;
When the trading partner mentioned the organization's base located in the Daikoku Building, called the "Cocktail" bar, Maori Kogoro still had no reaction;
Even when the confused Officer Mumu came to Kogoro Mouri and shook him hard, he didn't react at all.

It was as if he had really fallen asleep.

Lin Longma naturally also noticed the flash of Edogawa Conan in the picture and who was hurriedly running out.

Perhaps the photographer felt it necessary to record the only injured person in the explosion at this time?

Anyway, the last shot follows Conan until he runs out of the hotel and disappears into the crowd outside.

You know what, the last scene of this video is really beautiful.

Lin Longma and Doi naturally saw this scene, but neither of them mentioned it specifically.

Is Conan important? Not at all to Lin Longma. The investigation on Tequila has gradually turned into a hot potato.

Lin Longmako had no intention of cleaning up the mess for this dead guy.

Although Lin Longma's reputation in the organization is largely due to his altruism, his altruism is directed towards the living members of the organization.

Senior officials like Tequila who still cause trouble to others even after their death will be severely criticized by other members in private.

"Okay, Doi. Go process the video, and then have Kaneda prepare to withdraw. We can go report to Gin now."

"Okay brother, I'll go now."

After leaving Lin Longma's office, Doi first went to find Kaneda and asked him to help Lin Longma prepare the car, then took the video back to his office to start editing.

This video is for Lin Longma to watch, so it will naturally not be edited or shortchanged.

But if you are showing it to other people, then just keep the last part.

It's just that Kogoro Mouri asks about the identity of the victim he traded with, and that guy admits that he heard the part about their criminal group from Tequila.

Sometimes we need to do more of the work assigned by our superiors so that our leaders can see our efforts and responsibility.

But sometimes, we just need to complete what we are told to do and not do anything else, otherwise the leader will think that we are being taken advantage of and are easy to bully.

We need to analyze each situation specifically. To put it bluntly, we need to see what kind of person the leader above us is.

If partners like Gin, leaders like Rum, and even organizations like this working environment don’t want to become wanted criminals with no future, it’s better not to be too proactive.

Doi and other "ordinary people" actually understand that there are only two types of people who are particularly proactive in the organization.

One type is a spy sent by the police or somewhere else, and the other type is someone who really intends to follow the organization to the end regardless of the consequences.

For the former, please refer to rye whiskey, and for the latter, please refer to gin.

Doi was editing the video, while Kaneda was preparing the car and contacting Gin. Hayashi Ryoma took a cigarette out of the cigarette box, lit it, and then walked to the French window with the ashtray.

Putting the ashtray on the shelf beside him, Lin Longma looked at the busy city below and began to think.

The only things he was thinking about were Tequila, Maori Kogoro, and Edogawa Conan. Tequila was a hot potato for him, and so was it for others.

Who would be willing to take over this mess for no reason?

Gin?

Forget it, what Gin likes to do is to hunt down traitors of the organization and find undercover agents inside the organization. Gin has always refused this kind of clean-up work.

Rum?

Rum is not the kind of person who would help others clean up their messes. Of course, if this person is valuable, Rum would still be willing to help. But Tequila is dead now, with his body torn into pieces. How much value can he have?
As for the rest, Vodka is Gin's driver, and Cohen and Chianti just play sniping all day long.

Vermouth and Bourbon are always being mysterious, and no matter how you look at it, Lin Ryoma finds that he is the best candidate to clean up the mess.

Although Lin Longma was resisting, he also understood that there were some tasks in the organization that he could not refuse.

Although he couldn't refuse the mission directly, Lin Longma was not unwilling to negotiate the conditions.

If you want the horse to run, you have to let it eat grass. The Black Organization has never been a place for dedication.

In fact, those people who seem to have no desires and are dedicated to the organization with black hearts are basically undercover agents from outside.

Isn't that right, Akai Shuichi?

Lin Longma thought that if he had to accept Tequila's mess, then it would not be impossible to slightly shake up the power structure of the organization.

It is somewhat difficult to obtain the code name directly, but what about making some voices of their own through Gin?
There is also the famous detective Maori Kogoro, who is somewhere between muddleheaded and shrewd. He seems to be a greasy middle-aged drunkard, but it is hard to say how much real ability he actually has.

It doesn't matter whether he is asleep or not, but he should not be curious about the organization.

That's good.

As far as Hayashi Ryoma knows, Gin has to deal with countless detectives who are curious about the organization for some reason throughout the year, especially young detectives.

Some of these detectives are quite capable and can find out a little bit about the organization through various clues.

Then they were served a gin + vodka deluxe double meal, and one by one they died quietly and cleanly.

Kogoro Mouri doesn't seem to be very curious, which means that this new detective does not need to be marked as alert for the time being.

But that kid named Edogawa Conan is very weird. Looking at what he does, Lin Ryoma always feels that this kid knows something about the organization.

I didn't know it through Agave, but I probably knew something about it before I saw Agave.

The kid's behavior was not at all a child's curiosity or exploration, but an exploration of the unknown.

That's right, it's exploration. If exploration can't accurately describe Conan's behavior, Lin Longma has another description -

survey.

Just like the detectives that Gin had killed in the past, those detectives were also investigating the organization.
