Detective Conan: Becoming a Zaibatsu - Starting with Joining the Winery

Amuro Tooru looked completely bewildered.

After hearing Lin Mo's words, he felt as if his entire worldview had been shattered.

What?

Gin, that loyal dog of the organization, actually embezzled every mission?

Considering the terrifying workload Gin carries every day, how much money must he be embezzling!

Wait, something's not right!

This is not just a matter of money; it involves countless industries.

Considering Lin Mo, who has only been in the organization for about six months, judging from the information the police have gathered, he can now be directly called a tycoon.

Compared to these people, my own expense reimbursement is nothing!

If Lin Mo has been like this for half a year, what about Gin, Rum, and the others?

Thinking about the mission he received tonight, Pisco is a member of the organization just like him, but on the surface he is a big figure in the financial world, and his businesses are no less than those of second-rate conglomerates.

Damn it!

He instantly understood why he had been exposed.

Compared to Lin Mo, Gin, Rum and their ilk, my actions over the past few years have indeed been very problematic.

No wonder Rum only makes empty promises but never gets promoted.

This moment.

Bourbon was in a state of confusion and subconsciously asked, "Why are you telling me all this? Aren't you afraid I'll risk not going undercover and just arrest all of you who have been exposed?"

Yes!

He really couldn't understand why Lin Mo would say those things.

After all, strictly speaking, he and I are enemies!

And, in response to this.

Lin Mo shrugged, his tone perfectly calm.

"Rei Furuya, why don't you give it a try?"

"Call your superior now. If I remember correctly, your superior is Kuroda Heibei, right?"

"Formerly the head of the First Investigation Division of Nagano Prefecture, now the superintendent of the First Investigation Division of the Metropolitan Police Department, and in reality the head of the Security Planning Division of the Security Bureau of the National Police Agency."

"Don't be a coward!"

"Hit me right now!"

"If Kuroda Hyōe is willing to arrest me, I guarantee I will not use my strength and will fully cooperate with your arrest."

"If you can take me to the Zero Group interrogation room, I guarantee I will cooperate 100% with your questioning, and I will tell you anything you want to know unconditionally."

"but……"

"I can tell you right now that, in response to your request to be arrested, Kuroda Hyōe will only tell you that the time is not right and that you have not yet made contact with the organization's core."

"If you reveal your undercover identity and it is exposed, Kuroda Hyoue will only send you back to the police department."

"If you try to arrest me by force, you will be immediately dismissed from the police department, and Kuroda Heibei will come to apologize to me in person."

"And it's not just me, it's the same for Gin and Rum."

"Are you kidding me!"

"Why don't you use your brain to think about it? Gin wears a black trench coat every day, drives an old car around Tokyo, and never leaves his hand with him."

"His identity is public knowledge, so why doesn't the Metropolitan Police Department arrest him?"

"evidence?"

"Perhaps the Metropolitan Police Department needs evidence, but does your Zero Division need it to make arrests?"

"Use your brain, stop lying to yourself, okay?"

"Arrest me?"

"I'd give you ten times the courage!"

Lin Mo acted extremely arrogantly when he said these words.

Reality isn't like anime; it's not black and white!

If you can't even understand this point, then you're destined to be a pawn for life.

Meanwhile, on the other side...

Upon hearing these words, Amuro Tooru couldn't help but shudder, subconsciously feeling that Lin Mo wasn't bluffing him.

His forehead was instantly covered in cold sweat, but after swallowing hard, he gritted his teeth and took out his personal cell phone.

He wants to verify...

If what Lin Mo said is true, then his worldview will truly be shattered!

Beep!

The call was quickly answered, and Kuroda Hyoue's voice came through: "Rei, what's the emergency?"

Yes.

According to their agreement, Amuro Tooru would never make a phone call unless it was an extremely urgent matter.

And, in response to this.

Amuro Tooru took a deep breath and immediately turned on the speakerphone: "Sir, I've found out Amaretto's true identity."

"His name is Lin Mo..."

"He's a rising star in Tokyo right now, and according to the Zero Group's investigation, he's even started making contact with Chief Odagiri of the Metropolitan Police Department recently."

"Lin Mo is a high-ranking member of the organization. He must have a lot of intelligence about the organization. If we let him stay in Tokyo, he will definitely establish himself in the upper echelons of the island nation over time, and then it will be even more difficult to catch him."

"so……"

"I request the immediate arrest of Lin Mo!"

"If we can capture Lin Mo, we can get the organization's true inner workings from him."

Amuro Tooru was extremely nervous at that moment.

He was genuinely afraid, afraid that Kuroda Heibei would refuse.

Unfortunately, it's a pity.

After a moment's hesitation, Kuroda Hyoue on the other end of the phone finally spoke: "Furuya, the time is not yet ripe."

"We still know too little about the organization. If we hastily arrest the organization's senior officers now, the organization will definitely destroy all the intelligence that Lin Mo knows in the first place."

"A high-ranking official in an organization who is out in the open is far more valuable than someone who is hidden in the shadows."

"Therefore, we must pay close attention and avoid alerting them!"

Amuro Tooru shuddered.

He felt as if a string in his head had gently snapped.

Lin Mo was telling the truth; Kuroda Hyōe was unwilling to be arrested.

This moment.

He couldn't help but think of his previous arrest requests for Gin, Vermouth, and others, which were all blocked by the same rhetoric, just like what he was doing now.

but.

He used to genuinely believe the timing wasn't right, but now it seems that was just an excuse.

He's not stupid!

As a top undercover agent, I've come to understand the dark side of the island nation over the years within the organization.

He simply lacked the ability to change things, so he kept everything bottled up inside, hoping that he could work on it gradually in the future.

As for now...

It's better to focus on doing your own tasks well first, and then you can take advantage of the situation to gain credit and advance your career later.

But what about now?

He sneered inwardly, but instead of having a mental breakdown, he calmly spoke.

"I see, I understand."

"I will continue to keep an eye on Lin Mo and report back to you as soon as I have any information."

After saying that.

Amuro Tooru hung up the phone and then slammed his fist on the tea table.

Lin Mo was startled: "Are you out of your mind? Why are you so angry that you're smashing my table?"

"Sorry, I got a little excited." Amuro Tooru took a deep breath, and a faint smile appeared on his lips again.

Seeing this, Lin Mo couldn't help but admire Amuro Tooru; he was indeed no ordinary man!

If other people encountered this situation, they would most likely either give up entirely or have their faith crumble and become despondent.

What about Amuro Tooru?

This guy was actually able to keep his emotions in check, and a faint smile was still on his face.
