"...Have you thought too well of the people who can be undercovers?"
Katsuki Uehara, who was turning on the turn signal, immediately became happy when he heard this: "Don't mention you as a high school student. Even if the person lying on the ground at that time was one of their own FBI personnel, believe it or not, the other person would have taken out a gun and fired a bullet without changing his expression. Collapse?"
Conan on the other end of the phone wanted to say something, but after opening his mouth, he still fell into silence.
"Undercover is one of the most challenging professions in the world, especially when faced with a large transnational criminal organization like a winery. Have you ever considered that relevant agencies including the FBI, CIA, and even the Japanese Public Security Bureau, MI6, etc. What a heavy price the undercover paid for being sent in?
"Although it is somewhat unfair to them, it is a pity that as undercover agents, their hands are stained with the blood of their companions. Whether it is helpless passiveness or treacherous activeness.
"This is the tragedy of being an undercover agent, great detective."
As a member of the police force, Katsumi Uehara respects those undercover agents who are willing to give up all anonymity and bear shame and blood just to realize their ideals of justice.
They are the only light in a dark world.
At least he can't save others by himself, if he wants to attack innocent people or even his companions.
Even if it's for a mission.
At this point in time, Conan obviously still has some of the unique, immature, trust and imagination of the world that is unique to high school students. In other words, his nature is that of a light chaser who is always willing to believe in the light no matter what he experiences.
Banish the darkness and embrace the light.
Always a charming and treasured property.
"……Feel sorry."
After a moment of instinctive impulse, Conan was poured cold water on him by Katsuki Uehara. Thinking of the black organization's previous arrogant behavior of daring to exchange fire with Japanese police on the street, Conan suddenly calmed down a lot: "I was too impulsive. "
If you want to insert an undercover agent into this kind of crime, and you can get one in, you can imagine the price of sacrifice. Naturally, you won't be exposed easily by a stranger and innocent person.
"But why did the other party do this..."
In Dr. Agasa's house, Conan jumped on the chair and rubbed his chin with one hand, lost in thought: "Uehara, besides vodka, did the other party do anything else?"
"We released a bait named Miyano Shiho to test whether we can bite the hook."
"Miyano Shiho? Who is it? Is it important?"
"Well... you may not understand who she is just by introducing her. Let's put it this way, the shrinking pill you took was developed by her team."
——? !
Hearing this, Conan's pupils shrank suddenly: "What did you say?!"
The main person in charge of research and development of the smaller drug? !
What a joke!
This is no longer an ordinary member of the organization. Conan believes that anyone within the black organization who decides this would not have enough brains to use such an important existence as bait.
but……
Conan's mind suddenly turned into a mess and he frowned, a feeling of irritability faintly welling up in his heart.
"You don't need to worry about this. I'll handle the vodka and Miyano Shiho. I just want to inform you so that you won't be too surprised and say I'm hiding it from you, which will affect our cooperative relationship.
"I will verify their true identity. The reason why they are looking for you is for something else."
After braking, the dragon swung its tail, and the red Mazda parked directly in front of Dr. Ali's house. After getting out of the car, Katsuki Uehara held his mobile phone tightly in one hand, closed the car door and turned to look at the brightly lit building behind him.
"whats the matter?"
"Borrow some transmitters and a pair of tracking glasses."
Without knocking, he opened the door of Dr. A Li's house. Conan slowly put down his cell phone and subconsciously turned around to look. A slender shadow was stretched infinitely in the moonlight.
"And you, of course."
Under the night sky full of stars, Uehara Katsumi smiled and raised the
Shang's hand, still holding the phone tightly, pointed at Conan, who looked stunned.

"Me? Are you sure?"
The next day, Mihua Central Hospital, Orthopedics Clinic.
Aso, who came to work early in the morning, didn't wait for the patient's knock on the door, but was the first to receive a call from the police——
"Although I don't quite say that, yes. According to the information investigated by my colleagues, Miyano Shiho used your prescription to purchase related drugs at a drugstore in Mikka Town."
Metropolitan Police Department, in the office area of Section 1 and Department 3.
Shiratori Rensaburo, who asked Aso about the results of his hard work, said loudly: "Can you please come to the Metropolitan Police Department, Doctor Aso?"
Shiratori was still impressed by Aso.
In the previous Biblical Ten Plagues case, this man temporarily acted as a forensic doctor to help with the autopsy.
"OK, I understand."
Aso Minoru looked solemn, this is a major event related to his future career: "I probably——"
"No, you don't need to come, Chengshi."
Aso Minoru, who was about to take off his white coat and go out, was startled when the voice coming from the phone was the voice of his friend Katsumi Uehara——
"you sure?"
"Of course. Is it possible that I still can't trust you?"
In the office area of the third department, Katsuki Uehara took the landline phone from Shiratori and said with a smile: "It's okay. You can just send me a copy of the appointment and medical records on the computer later."
"... Nothing happened, Uehara?" Aso Minoru vaguely smelled something wrong.
"It should be fine. Hang up now. I will notify you in advance if something happens."
"okay."
Aso nodded confusedly, hung up the phone, stood there and put on the white coat that had been half taken off.
"Uehara, what are you doing?"
"It's okay. We can't be distracted now. A doctor has to treat so many people a day. If he investigates them one by one, the police force will be involved."
Katsuki Uehara waved his hand: "Our top priority now is to secretly protect Miyano Akemi. The public security side is unreliable."
"But Miyano Akemi isn't here—"
Shiratori frowned, and in the next second, a figure walked into the third department office area and came into sight of Shiratori Rensaburo.
"Officer Uehara, Officer Shiratori."
Miyano Akemi, who looked obviously haggard, put her hand on her chest, bowed slightly to the two of them, and said hello: "Is it true that my sister escaped from the organization?"
"You-what's wrong with her?"
Shiratori Rensaburo looked at her, then turned to look at Uehara Katsumi.
"It can't be stopped, there's no way. The condition for her to accept the witness protection program is her sister." Uehara Katsumi shrugged: "It's better to block it than to block it. Rather than stopping her and making her fearful that she may escape from the villa at any time, it's better to let her participate. "
"What are you going to do? We don't even know where her sister is now, and we haven't even found a single hair."
"There is no need to investigate. Change the police's thinking and don't be led by the nose. Otherwise, the initiative will always be in the hands of the other party."
Uehara Katsuki raised the corners of his mouth, turned to Miyano Akemi and said, "Remember what I told you, Miss Miyano."
Miyano Akemi, who was named, took a deep breath and nodded: "I understand."
"Okay, let's start getting ready. Let's start with makeup. Sato will take you to the dressing room later."
"???"
Shiratori Rensaburo was confused, but soon he understood what Katsumi Uehara said about not needing to investigate...
"Viewers, here is an urgent news break. The person sitting next to me now is Hirota Masami, the mastermind behind the billion-dollar robbery that shocked Japan some time ago. Now, she..."
Within the organization's stronghold.
When the emergency news broadcast in the news broadcast room of the TV station appeared that day, everyone in the living room was stunned.
"Shiho, I know that you have escaped from that dark criminal organization. My sister is proud of you. I also know that you must be suffering from hiding in XZ now. My sister understands what this feels like..."
On the TV screen, under the dumbfounded gaze of Vodka, Miyano Akemi, who was in high spirits after putting on makeup, sat on the anchor desk and issued a missing person notice in an emotional voice.
"Shiho, sister is waiting for you at the place we have agreed upon. Don't worry, they will never know about that place, because sister and I have never revealed this news to them from beginning to end."
"..."
"..."
"Brother, do you know where the place that Shirley and Miyano Akemi agreed to be?" After being stunned, Vodka came back to his senses, turned around and stuttered.
"..."
Gin narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at Miyano Akemi on the TV screen who was holding back tears and talking to her sister from a distance in front of the camera, but did not answer.
"Brother?"
"Inform Belmod that the plan has changed." After thinking for a moment, Gin with gloomy eyes said, "Let Team B hunt her down. Also, you should go to the Metropolitan Police Department again."
"I, I'm still going?" Vodka was stunned, a little unsure.
