Conan: Death is Watching Me

Chapter 53 Conan: It was you who complained

The next morning.

Gao Mo got up early and ran around the riverbank. After completing daily training in Yingshan's "Meat Reform Class", he added kendo practice to his plan.

Another option is to ask someone to help you find a house.

Yesterday, the Suzuki family gave him 200 million yen as commission, and with his savings, he can already make some preparations.

At least find a suitable place for the office.

It was already afternoon when I returned to the apartment.

Gao Mo was planning to catch up on his reasoning studies after a nap, but he was stopped by the administrator just as he passed the mail room.

"Is the package here?"

Without saying anything more, Gao Mo quickly went upstairs and opened the package.

Still the wax envelope and invitation letter.

The inviter this time was the director of Mihua Library, and he finally returned to his original job in his previous life - librarian.

It seems that the conditions for the promotion to actor level 3 can be gathered in advance.

Instead, the number of stars has become a constraint.

There is no good solution in this regard. Even in Beika Town, murders are not something you can easily encounter.

And it seems that not all murders can play a role.

It had to be a case that the police hadn't solved and in which he was deeply involved as a character.

Although there is no role-playing task, the actual role-playing still exists - playing yourself is also role-playing.

But Rice Flower Library...

A sinister old face appeared in Gao Mo's mind.

He was quite impressed by the "Library Murder Case", which took place in this Beika Library.

The victim was also a librarian...

"Ding dong!"

The doorbell outside interrupted Gao Mo's thoughts. He couldn't see anyone through the peephole, and only when he opened the door did he meet Conan's inquiring gaze.

He was still carrying his schoolbag, and it seemed like he had just come here after school.

"Brother Kido, I want to have a good talk with you."

"Come in." Gao Mo opened a bottle of ice cola for Conan.

"What are you planning, Kido-nii?" Conan didn't drink his Coke. "I think you're not willing to hide forever, right? That's why I see you everywhere... and Kindaichi who followed uncle yesterday..."

"I want to try to make 'Kindaichi' appear in the public eye, or at least make a relative impression."

"Kirouto! You know what I want to ask," Conan said carefully, "Escape will not solve the problem. I hope to face the Black Organization with you. I have friends on my father's side who can help."

"You misunderstood. I'm different from you," Gao Mo shook his head. "The organization has nothing to do with me, and I'm not hiding from the organization."

"But……"

"Don't be too anxious. What you are doing now is actually not wrong. As long as Kogoro continues to be active and famous, he will sooner or later be involved in cases related to the organization."

Gao Mo drank Coke himself.

"Wasting too hastily might backfire. Those people are more dangerous than you think... I believe your parents must have taught you a lesson. No matter what you do, you must think clearly about the consequences. If something goes wrong, what will happen to the Maori father and daughter?"

Conan's eyes widened: "You are the one who complained to my parents?"

"What do you mean by complaining? I'm just giving you a proper reminder."

Gao Mo touched his nose.

"By the way, how far have you investigated now?"

"I only know they're powerful, like to wear black, and often conduct secret transactions..."

"Didn't they find anything?"

"What do you mean by 'nothing'?" Conan said unconvincedly, "At least I understand their style of operation. I ran into them on the Shinkansen last time. They nearly killed the person they were dealing with, and even went so far as to cause an explosion on the Shinkansen... They're a bunch of inhumane and unscrupulous guys!"

Gao Mo: "So?"

"It will be easier to find these guys in the future," Conan said confidently, "Dad has also contacted friends abroad. This kind of rampant organization will easily attract attention... Don't you have any clues?"

Gao Mo thought quietly.

The Black Organization is actually very evil. There are still many secrets that have not been revealed in the original work. So many undercover agents have failed to bring down the organization. Obviously, there are many deep inside stories.

He'd better not mislead Conan.

"I only know they use alcoholic beverages as code names. The two people who shrunk you were Gin and Vodka. Pay special attention to Gin; he's quite perceptive. Don't treat him like an ordinary criminal. The Black Organization is no ordinary criminal group."

Gao Mo finally revealed.

"You'd better not try to hide these props and tracking devices given by the doctor from Gin... Otherwise, next time it won't just be him getting smaller, but the entire Maori Detective Agency and even me will be wiped out."

"I know." Conan's face was slightly sad.

It seems that he was really shocked by the "surprise" of the Kudo couple. After a pause, Conan continued to ask: "So what are your plans now? Do you really want to be your uncle's assistant?"

"I don't have any idea for now. I plan to find a suitable workplace and open my own detective agency." Gao Mo flipped through the newspaper on the table.

The Maru case yesterday indeed caused a huge response.

The famous detective Kogoro Mori and his mysterious partner, Mr. Kindaichi...

The media first published a description of Kindaichi's appearance, describing him as a 40-year-old novelist, so much so that the newspaper even specifically mentioned Kudo Yusaku.

"You want to compete with your uncle?" Conan's mouth twitched.

"There are so many detective agencies out there, I don't need one anymore," Gao Mo said, looking at the iconic smiling face with a mustache on the front page of the newspaper. "Besides, I don't plan to start an extramarital affair investigation business, so I won't compete with Kogoro for business."

"In that case, would you like to borrow my house?"

Conan suddenly suggested.

"Don't you want to read too? It's a good opportunity for you to keep an eye on my house. It's also a good place for a detective agency. There shouldn't be any restrictions for small individual agencies. Just apply for the normal registration."

"your home?"

Gao Mo was quite interested.

He actually wanted to find a commercial and residential building similar to the Maori Detective Agency.

But it would be quite attractive if the Kudo family could be used as an office.

You can directly use that high-end library as an office.

"Your parents..."

"They won't have any objections," Conan said with a relaxed expression. "It's vacant anyway, and it's almost being regarded as a haunted house. It's better to have someone living there... It's best to clean it regularly and take care of the books."

"Okay, I'll pay you the market price for the rent... I'm not really short of money right now."

Gao Mo stopped Conan who wanted to speak.

Actually, I am still quite short of money.

But even though he was short of money, he didn't want to get something for free in a place like this, even though the Kudo family might not care.

"Don't charge the market price, let's say 5% off," Conan nodded silently, picked up his backpack and prepared to leave, "You can ask the doctor to help you with the application."

"Oh!"

As soon as the door opened, the three children behind screamed in pain and fell into a heap, piling up like a pyramid and tumbling into the hallway.

A little fat boy, a freckled boy, and a little girl wearing a hairband... 3 elementary school students who give you a strong sense of déjà vu.

"Why are you here?" Conan glanced at Gao Mo awkwardly.

He was actually followed here by a few little ghosts.

Wouldn't Kido think he's unreliable?
"We want to see Conan's house. Is it here?"

The mischievous little girl in the lead put her hands behind her back guiltily, and soon followed the other two into the room.

"What a huge house! It's bigger than my house!"

"Uncle, are you Conan's dad? We are Conan's classmates. We came here to see Conan because he always likes someone."

"Yeah, this guy is always a worry," the little fat boy sniffed, drooling, "Smells good, is there something delicious... Is it an eel bento?"

"Hello..."

Conan is troubled by these familiar guys.

"Didn't I tell you I'm staying at the Mori Detective Agency? You guys, come out now!"

"Ah? Isn't uncle Conan's father?"

The girl raised her head like a little adult and stood in front of Gao Mo.

"Could Uncle be a TV star? He lives in such a big house by himself, and he's so handsome..."

"No," the freckled boy reasoned, looking through the newspapers and books on the table, stroking his chin, "Uncle should be a detective, a detective who has just started or hasn't started yet."

"Call me brother, and I'm not a star or a detective."

Gao Mo's forehead twitched.

These naughty kids... I almost forgot about these guys.

In the animation, he is often seen in the young detective team suffering from high blood pressure.

Ayumi, Genta and Mitsuhiko.

"So it's the butler?" The freckled boy noticed the butler's information next to the TV cabinet.

"I'm not a housekeeper either. I'm a freelancer."

Gao Mo glanced at the unhappy Conan out of the corner of his eye.

"Well," Conan coughed and stepped out the door, "I'm going back, Kido-nii."
