Conan: I'm Really Not Tokyo Ghost Story

Therefore, Amuro Tooru did take it to heart.

You may care, but some things just can't be found...

Even if it could be found out, Amuro Tooru wouldn't believe it.

As for the information in the peripheral members' archive, Amuro Tooru could tell at a glance that it was fake. After checking the information, he found that it was indeed fake.

This was undoubtedly tacitly approved by Gin and Rum, so Amuro Tooru couldn't say anything.

Amuro Tooru had considered testing the waters, but he felt he didn't know where to start... If he acted rashly, he might end up revealing something.

Meanwhile, Rum would occasionally hint to Amuro Tooru that he should have more contact with Fox... without specifying his exact purpose.

It's unavoidable and causes a lot of headaches.

Or should we try to take this guy out here to prevent future trouble?

Amuro Tooru's eyes began to flicker—he wasn't sure if hypnosis was really this guy's specialty, nor was he sure if it was real or fake, but if it was, it certainly wasn't a gimmick.

This may seem like a pointless statement, but it proves Amuro Tooru's inner unease and lack of confidence.

Unstable factors.

An unpredictable time bomb is the most dreaded.

“...Shirley was there yesterday, why didn’t you report it to me?”

Suddenly, Amuro Tooru asked again.

Sano raised an eyebrow and asked, "What, Sherry?"

Toru Amuro: "..."

An outside member, an outside member who has only recently joined the organization.

It's perfectly normal not to know the meaning of the name "Sherry".

...I just don't know if this guy is pretending to be stupid on purpose to maintain his persona.

After thinking for a few seconds, Amuro Tooru continued to ask, "Then why didn't you mention in your report yesterday that when the four children were locked in the house by the murderer and almost burned to death, but were rescued, one of them was missing?"

"Because I felt that such a small matter was not worth reporting."

Sano responded lazily, and before Amuro Tooru could ask any more questions, he continued, "It's like I feel that there are many things about you that don't need to be reported to Gin, which is why he hasn't come over and pointed a gun at you yet... just like you pointing a gun at me right now."

"……what?"

Amuro Tooru was taken aback by Sano's words and was momentarily stunned.

"What, am I speaking Japanese?"

Seeing the smile on Sano's profile as he turned slightly, Amuro Tooru's eyes narrowed.

"You mean, Gin sent you to keep an eye on me?"

"uh-huh."

Sano nodded in confirmation.

...He actually admitted it so openly and frankly.

Amuro Tooru narrowed his eyes: "So you're just telling me this? Is that really okay? Aren't you afraid that Gin will find out and cause you trouble... Or are you trying to use this as a bargaining chip to get me to spare your life?"

"Tsk tsk tsk."

Sano shook his head.

"First, you can't kill me."

"Secondly, you won't kill me."

Third, you can't kill me.

Amuro Tooru frowned... He could understand the first one.

But what are the second and third ones?

"Can it speak human language?"

Amuro Tooru once again pointed his gun at the target, the threat of which was self-evident.

Sano could only sigh and say, "Because, I'm actually a good person too. Of course, a good person wouldn't kill another good person, right?"

Toru Amuro: "..."

nice guy?

Who?

Yourself?

This guy?

What is this stuff?

Just as Amuro Tooru was once again bewildered by what he said, Sano turned around completely, his chin slightly raised, the corners of his mouth curving into a wider smile, and said, "I think you probably don't want Gin to know that you are actually... Zero, right?"

"..."

In an instant, Amuro Tooru's mentality collapsed.

"...What zero?"

After taking a few seconds to steady his nearly shattered mind, Amuro Tooru forced himself to remain calm and pretended to be stupid, asking the question.

"What do you mean by zero? Anyway, it's definitely not the cunning zero."

Sano smiled and said, "Or, you can choose not to be a good guy, just kill me right here, and then pretend you don't know anything. Who knows, you might still be able to get away with it in front of Gin and Rum."

Toru Amuro: "..."

Well, they're not even giving me a chance to play dumb and be stubborn.

Amuro Tooru truly didn't expect that his own "organizations don't care about evidence" approach, which he had just started using, would now be applied to him.

But... when and how did this guy find out?

After discovering it, did you mention it to anyone?

Amidst the chaotic train of thought, one idea finally emerged.

"...I see. So that's why you said I'm a good person. And you said you're a good person too, which means you're an undercover agent infiltrating the organization?"

Amuro Tooru's question was clearly tactful.

Sano curled the corners of his lips and said, "Who knows? What, are you planning to kill me just because I'm not? Then hurry up and do it."

...His words were all a provocation, urging me to take action.

Amuro Tooru took a deep breath, but he really didn't have the urge to take action... or rather, the urge wasn't strong. Of course, the core factor that determines his actions has never been his emotions.

"I see."

After finishing speaking, Amuro Tooru finally put away his gun and said, "Rum told me that he wants me to mentor you for a while, and you can give me full command. After this period, I need to give him an evaluation and summary, which will directly determine whether you can become a member of the executive team."

"Oh?"

Sano looked slightly surprised.

...Can they really advance so hastily?

It seems Rum quite "likes" himself, but ultimately...

It's probably because of Gin's influence.

"Is this considered a transaction?"

Sano asked Amuro Tooru.

Amuro Tooru shook his head.

"No, this is not a transaction, but my reward."

...His identity was exposed not just recently, but since it hasn't been reported yet, it's highly unlikely to be reported in the future. The person in front of him is undoubtedly not an enemy.

At least, that's not the case right now.

Adhering to the principles of being kind to others and achieving win-win cooperation.

Amuro Tooru felt that he should at least repay this favor first.

As for whether we will cooperate or part ways in the future, we'll see.

"You can rest assured that I'm not just making empty promises, because the time has come."

Amuro Tooru added, "The Suzuki family's express train, you're coming with me."

Ok?

Suzuki Express?

What a coincidence!

Sano pondered for a few seconds and then agreed.

Why not accept the status of a cadre who gets something for nothing?

At least you'll have a guaranteed minimum wage, right?

But then again.

Sano snapped out of his daze and asked Amuro Tooru, "So, all this time you've been deliberately getting close to that Kogoro Mouri, is your real purpose Sherry? To get rid of her completely on this Suzuki Express?"

"That's it."

Amuro Tooru admitted it... Of course, in reality, his real target when he approached Kogoro Mouri was Shuichi Akai and Ai Haibara, the Sherry.

It was just a convenient excuse.

Because before the battle for Kiel began, during the period when she was taken away by the FBI, which was at the very beginning of the Tsuchimon Koki case, she had contact with Kogoro Mouri... and was later fitted with a bugging device.

Gin had suspected that Kogoro Mouri had been in contact with Sherry.

Then Shuichi Akai appeared, which cleared some of the suspicion, but only some, or even if you think about it the other way around.
