Gin doesn't want to work hard

Adhering to the principle of saying less and making fewer mistakes, Kurosawa just shook his head to indicate that he didn't pay attention.

Conan did not doubt what Kurosawa said.

After getting the answer, he started thinking again.

Conan still tends to believe that someone took Akai Shuichi's things.

Is it gin?

Or is he an accomplice of Shuichi Akai?

In fact, Conan already has a rough guess about Shuichi Akai's identity.

Judging from the friction he had with both Bourbon and Gin, he must be an enemy of the organization.

He is willing to save Kurosawa, so he must not be a bad person.

He carries a gun and is quite skilled, looking like he has received professional training.

Moreover, he always seemed to act alone.

At least so far, no one he knows has come to see him.

But at first, he seemed to want to borrow a mobile phone?

Do you want to contact your companions?

Conan thought about it and took the initiative to hand over the earring phone in his hand.

"Mr. Akai, you wanted to borrow a mobile phone just now, right?"

"No, this is for you."

Shuichi Akai looked at what Conan handed over.

He knew that Conan was trying to test him.

Judging from Conan’s reaction just now, they probably didn’t find their pistols.

So, Conan wanted to start from other places.

Although Shuichi Akai was also a little curious about where his things had gone.

But that's not the most important thing.

The most important thing now is to ensure Judy's safety.

Although making a phone call in front of Conan would reveal some things.

But Shuichi Akai still raised his hand to take the phone and dialed a number without hesitation.

Conan stared closely at Akai Shuichi's actions.

He moved quickly, but Conan still wrote down the number.

However, I always feel that this number is familiar?

Conan frowned and thought, but before he could figure it out, the call was connected.

"Hello? Who are you?"

A female voice came from the other side.

The moment they heard this voice, Conan and the others were stunned at the same time.

This voice is... Teacher Judy!

Teacher Judy is Shuichi Akai's companion, and the member of that organization is Doctor Shinichi!

Things were taking a turn for the worst.

Conan felt heavy in his heart when he thought that the real Dr. Shinde might have been killed.

Although his relationship with Judy was exposed, Shuichi Akai breathed a sigh of relief when he heard Judy's calm voice and knew that she was fine.

"it's me."

Akai Shuichi spoke.

“…Shuichi?”

Judy said uncertainly, her voice turning serious.

"What happened?"

I can let Shuichi Akai contact me temporarily with an unfamiliar number...

Judy quickly realized that he might be in some trouble.

Due to the presence of other people, Shuichi Akai did not elaborate, but only vaguely reminded Judy to be careful.

There was silence for a while on the other end of the phone, then he spoke.

"Oh, Shuichi."

"Do you remember when we came to Japan?"

This was a code word they had agreed upon beforehand to confirm each other's situation.

Shuichi Akai knew that Judy suspected that he was being controlled.

"February 11th."

"We arrived in Japan on the afternoon of February 11th."

Akai Shuichi replied.

Judy breathed a sigh of relief when she heard Shuichi Akai's answer.

This date means it's safe and indicates we'll be in touch again next time.

"OKOK, Shuichi, your memory is still so good."

"It's getting late. I need to rest. We'll talk next time."

Judy hung up the phone.

Akai Shuichi returned the phone to Conan.

Conan asked, pursing his lips.

"Is Teacher Judy one of yours?"

"What about the new doctor?"

Chapter 217 Akai Shuichi's Speculation

New doctor?

Shuichi Akai didn't know whether Conan wanted to ask about Vermouth or the original Tomoaki Akai.

Maybe both.

But he didn't want to answer.

Knowing too much is not a good thing for Conan.

And judging from what happened today, Gin might have noticed them.

This is not good news.

Akai Shuichi spoke again and said the name he had not finished saying just now.

"Kudo Shinichi."

Conan's pupils shrank suddenly and his fingers curled slightly.

Although he knew that the person in front of him had no ill intentions, Conan was still a little panicked when his identity was pointed out so bluntly.

But soon, he calmed down.

He didn't try to play dumb.

Shuichi Akai was the first person he met who clearly regarded the organization as his target.

And judging from the fact that he knows both Bourbon and Gin, he also has a certain understanding of the organization.

Shuichi Akai has the same goal as him.

It's not that the two can't work together.

When Akai Shuichi saw Conan's calm look, a hint of praise flashed in his eyes.

From this point of view, Conan's psychological quality is still very good.

"Mr. Akai, we can work together."

Conan extended an invitation.

Akai Shuichi remained noncommittal, neither agreeing nor refusing.

He means something.

"Are you so confident facing someone like me whose identity is unknown?"

"To save someone, I put myself in this state..."

Conan looked at Akai Shuichi and continued.

“Most people can’t do this.”

"Besides, I have some guesses about your identity."

"If I'm guessing correctly, you should be an agent from the United States!"

After saying that, Conan stared at Akai Shuichi's face, trying to see something from it.

But Shuichi Akai is obviously not someone who would reveal his flaws so easily.

He just said "Oh?" and his expression remained indifferent.

"In that case, why not make a deal?"

Akai Shuichi spoke.

"…What deal?"

"If you can formally confirm my identity, I will agree to the cooperation you just mentioned."

"But before that, you have to make sure your identity is no longer discovered."

Shuichi Akai tried to get Conan to play the role of a child well.

It is safest to raise this point in the name of a transaction.

Although I don't have much contact with Conan.

But this child is sharp and suspicious, and likes to get to the bottom of things.

If he continues like this, he will be exposed to Gin sooner or later.

Conan didn't know what Akai Shuichi was thinking.

But the request made by Shuichi Akai was not demanding and it did not do him any good.

In a way, this isn't really a deal.

This seemed to be just to give Conan a chance.

Conan naturally would not refuse this.

"Then it's settled!"

Conan and Shuichi Akai reached a consensus.

After dealing with Conan, Shuichi Akai closed his eyes and indicated that he wanted to rest.

Seeing Akai Shuichi's reaction, Conan's mouth twitched.

However, due to Shuichi Akai's physical condition, he will not be able to leave the hospital in a short period of time.

As for Kurosawa and Gin...

Conan turned and looked at Kurosawa.

Seeing this, Kurosawa also lay down on the bed, closed his eyes, and looked like he refused to communicate.
