Conan: Ran, I really am Shinichi, you have to believe me!

Page 147

When you're out and about, I'll give you an identity. No one meets the requirements yet, but once someone does, their name will appear on it. The way to use it is the same as when you give yourself an identity while out and about.

I spent 4 kill coins on these two skills, which is exactly the 4 kill coins I got from the two Swiftwind Thieves. The 31 kill coins I had accumulated before remained unchanged.

The only pity is that these two guys joined a criminal group with a pretty cool name, called the Gale Thieves Group, but they never killed anyone. So, they didn't get any extra transformation attempts after being arrested and taken to the police station.

After helping Kogoro Mouri, who was deeply immersed in grief, solve a case requested by Misao Nakamura, Jiang Chengbei returned to his shop to continue running it, waiting for the murderers who had asked Kogoro Mouri to provide alibis.

Because a beautiful female classmate died at his class reunion, and the murderer was another of his college classmates, Kogoro Mouri felt guilty and was depressed for a long time. It wasn't until he saw a beautiful woman in a miniskirt walking by on the street that Kogoro Mouri was revitalized. He borrowed some money from Jiang Chengbei and rushed out to have a good time and make up for the time he had wasted.

Looking at Kogoro Mouri, who had borrowed money from Jiangchengbei and dressed in a flashy manner, Conan and the Miyano sisters both showed contempt on their faces.

Compared to Kogoro Mouri, Jiang Chengbei, who is much richer, didn't go to help the poor. Instead, he obediently stayed at the fruit shop to accompany Akemi Miyano. He's really a good man.

Not long after Kogoro Mouri left the fruit shop in Jiangcheng North, Conan and Ai Haibara, who were bored and stayed home to mind the shop since it was a day off, along with Jiangcheng North and Akemi Miyano, who didn't need to work or work 996 days a week, saw Ran, dressed up and clearly wearing makeup, passing by the shop.

"Xiaolan, you're all dressed up so beautifully today, are you going on a date?"

Jiang Chengbei noticed that Xiaolan was acting differently today, so he asked her a question.

After Jiang Chengbei asked the question, Conan, who was very concerned about it, looked at Ran with a nervous expression, afraid that she would give a definite answer.

"Huh, Jiang Cheng, you could tell? Was I that obvious today?"

Upon hearing Ran's answer, Conan felt like the sky had fallen. He immediately asked anxiously, "Ran, who are you going on a date with?"

Seeing Conan's tense and focused expression, along with his furrowed brow and displeased look, Ran immediately recalled Jiang Chengbei and her father, Kogoro Mouri, saying that Conan was a pervert who didn't like people his own age, and that he was precocious and liked her, his older sister.

To make Conan give up and stop having inappropriate thoughts about her, Ran said:

"Your brother, Shinichi Kudo, and I have a date. Conan, you'd better stay in the shop and help Jiang Cheng watch the shop, okay?"

After saying that, Xiaolan hummed a little tune, picked up her bag, and happily walked away.

"Damn it! That persistent ghost is looking for Xiaolan again!"

After gritting his teeth and muttering a curse under his breath, Conan immediately chased after Ran, shouting:

"Ran, my brother... Shinichi Kudo is not a good person, he's a big bad guy. Please don't go on dates with him, stay away from him, I beg you!"

Hearing Conan start badmouthing Shinichi Kudo again, Ran, who had been quite happy, stopped and frowned as she spoke to Conan:

"Conan, you're slandering your brother again. Now that Uncle Yusaku is gone, you don't have many relatives left. Stop treating your brother like an enemy. You two brothers should get along well."

"No, he's not a good person, he's a complete villain, he's done all sorts of bad things, he's incredibly rich and inhuman. You shouldn't go on a date with him, you'll be in danger if you're with him..."

Watching Conan and Ran's conversation, the Miyano sisters had gossipy expressions on their faces. They knew that the Conan in front of them was Shinichi Kudo in his shrunken form; he was the real Shinichi Kudo.

But now, in front of his childhood sweetheart, he is ruthless in slandering his own big account, framing her, spreading rumors and defamation. He is truly a man of great ambition.

Previously, Conan had only discovered his brother's murders after the fact, and hadn't personally experienced it. But a few days ago, at the Shiraito Pharmaceutical Company and the brewery's hideout, he witnessed his brother, who looked exactly like him, slaughtering brewery employees in an armed helicopter.

Apart from a few codenamed members of the brewery who jumped off buildings to escape like him, a large number of other lower-level members of the brewery, including many researchers, were wiped out. All of this happened right under Conan's nose, and Conan saw it all clearly.

He hated his own brother for being so ruthless, not sparing a single person and causing the deaths of many innocent people!

Now that he hears that Xiaolan is going on a date with her weird brother, how could he not be anxious?

In his anxiety, he blurted out whatever came to mind, his only wish being to stop Xiaolan's date today and to stop his brother from harming her.

So while Conan and Ran were trying to persuade each other, Jiang Chengbei and the Miyano sisters brought out small stools and sat at the shop entrance to watch them argue.

Ran had made an appointment with someone and didn't have time to waste on Conan, so she picked up the troublesome kid and placed him next to Jiang Chengbei, asking him to keep an eye on Conan while she went to her date.

"Jiang Chengbei, let me go! I need to find Xiaolan, I need to stop them..."

Seeing that Ran had left, Conan struggled incessantly in Jiang Chengbei's grasp.

"Conan, you said Shinichi Kudo is a big bad guy, but why exactly is he bad? Tell us in detail!"

Not having heard enough of Conan's self-criticism, Haibara asked with great interest, wanting to know where Conan's bottom line was and how bad he could portray himself.

With Ran gone, Conan had no time to badmouth his own reputation to Ai Haibara, so he could only keep begging Jiang Chengbei to let him go.

"Jiang Cheng, you know what kind of person my perverted brother is. He kills without blinking an eye, has no moral bottom line, and does all sorts of evil. Now he's starting to have ill intentions towards Xiao Lan. Please let me go and let me stop him, otherwise Xiao Lan will be in danger!"

Seeing Conan's anxious expression, Jiang Chengbei smiled noncommittally:

"Conan, even if I let you go, it won't do any good. With your brother's abilities, do you think you can stop it by letting you pass?"

Do you think you can beat your brother?

Jiang Chengbei's reminder immediately deflated Conan.

That's right, compared to Jiang Chengbei who has transformed into Shinichi Kudo, Conan without his powers of magic is no match at all.

But when Conan saw Miyano Akemi next to Jiang Chengbei, his eyes lit up. Jiang Chengbei now had a girlfriend and was sleeping with Miyano Akemi, so Jiang Chengbei was safe for Ran.

So, Conan looked at Jiang Chengbei with pleading eyes: "Jiang Cheng, don't we have you?"

"I may not be able to beat my weird brother, but you can. Come with me, and we'll stop Xiaolan from dating my brother!"

After saying this, Conan thought about how Jiang Chengbei had found Miyano Akemi so quickly, even though Azuma Mari hadn't been gone for long. The speed at which new people replaced old ones was a bit too fast, and he was a little worried about Jiang Chengbei's character. So he continued:

"Sister Rimi, you should come too. None of you have met my ruthless brother. This time he's not hiding anymore and is out on a date with Ran. It's a rare opportunity, so you should go and meet him."

"Let me tell you, the guy who strafed Baijiu Pharmaceutical Company with an armed helicopter last time, turning it into ruins and killing a lot of distillery workers, was my brother. Go meet him, remember his face, so you don't accidentally offend him later."

Then, under Conan's persuasive tongue, the Miyano sisters were convinced. After all, it would be good to meet "Shinichi Kudo," who usually hid away and was rarely seen. So, Jiang Chengbei, the Miyano sisters, and Conan chased after Ran in the direction she had left.

Conan might not be good at tracking down Gin and Vodka, who have a low-key aura, but he's quite adept at finding Ran, and he's almost always successful.

So soon after, Conan, along with Jiang Chengbei who came to watch the show, and the Miyano sisters who wanted to meet the legendary Public Security Bureau Team Leader Shinichi Kudo, accompanied Ran to the coffee shop.

Upon entering the coffee shop, Conan was immediately stunned. He saw Ran chatting happily with a handsome acquaintance!

"Mr. Amuro, what are you doing here as a waiter? Are there bad guys here? Do you need my help? I'm very strong."

Ran was surprised at first, then seemed to remember something, so she leaned over and whispered a question in Amuro Tooru's ear, and after she finished speaking, she didn't forget to show off her biceps.

Seeing them like this, Conan was instantly enraged and rushed over in a fit of anger.

"No, no, Xiaolan, you've misunderstood. I'm just working, a regular waiter. There's nothing special going on. Xiaolan, please sit down. Would you like something to drink?"

"Ran, you came alone? Where's your childhood friend, Shinichi Kudo? Why didn't he come with you?"

Just as Conan rushed to Ran and Amuro Tooru's side, he heard the even more dangerous name of Shinichi Kudo. He immediately calmed down and braked in time, thus avoiding knocking down Amuro Tooru who was standing next to Ran.

Seeing Conan suddenly appear in front of her, Ran glared at him angrily. Remembering the lie she had just told Conan, she had no choice but to continue with countless lies to appease him:

"Almost there, almost there, we should be there soon. Conan, don't stay here and disturb my date, go back now!"

Hearing Ran say that, Amuro Tooru's eyes lit up, and he continued, "Is Kudo-kun coming too? Are you on a date with him?"

"That's great! I really admire Kudo-kun. His reasoning is amazing. He's always been my idol. It's wonderful to meet him today."

Looking at Amuro Tooru, a fan who idolizes him, Conan's eyes flashed with confusion. Why didn't he show his admiration for him before?

Never mind, the biggest enemy now is the perverted brother who looks exactly like me and is impersonating me to date Xiaolan. Now that there is a policeman present, I have an extra helper, and my chances of defeating him are much greater.

So, Conan tugged at Amuro Tooru's trouser leg, tilted his head back, and said:

"Brother Amuro, Ran-neechan is here today for a date with Shinichi Kudo. He'll be here soon, so you'd better investigate him thoroughly. He's a really bad guy!"

When Amuro Tooru heard that Shinichi Kudo was coming, his eyes lit up. He had been searching high and low, but the opportunity had come to him without any effort. It was definitely the right decision for him to come and work at the coffee shop.

I've finally found you, Shinichi Kudo!

Chapter 206 Since you are all waiting for Shinichi Kudo, then I, Shinichi Kudo, will come out and see you.

Seeing Ran chatting happily with the handsome Amuro Tooru, Conan, the king of jealousy in Asia, immediately stormed in angrily.

Meanwhile, Ai Haibara, who came with Conan, felt her internal "blacksmith radar" go off like crazy. Instinctively, she grabbed Miyano Akemi's leg, trembling as she tried to stop Jiang Chengbei and the others from entering.

"Sister, run...run! There are...there are distillery officials..."

Startled by Ai Haibara's actions, Akemi Miyano stopped in her tracks, picked up the trembling, terrified Ai Haibara, and asked:

"What's wrong, Ai?"

After asking the question, I followed Haibara's gaze and saw a familiar figure.

Thanks to Jiang Chengbei's previous creation of Amuro Tooru's human skin mask, Akemi immediately recognized that the person talking to Ran in the store was her old classmate, Furuya Rei.

After learning about Jiang Chengbei's background, Mingmei patted Haibara on the back and comforted her:

"Don't be afraid, he's an undercover police officer, not just a winery executive, he's not a bad guy."

"Sister, even if he is a police officer who infiltrated the winery, how can a police officer not be a bad person?"

That Public Security officer named Shinichi Kudo practically wiped out everyone at the White Hare base!

Ai Haibara spoke tremblingly, sweating profusely, while glancing at Jiang Chengbei beside her.

Anyway, when Amuro Tooru was asking Ran about Shinichi Kudo's whereabouts, Ai Haibara at the door also revealed her Black Organization radar. Moreover, she is usually the most stubborn, but she is the most cowardly when she encounters Black Organization members.

Seeing how terrified they were of a bottle of fake alcohol, their bodies stiffened and their behavior was particularly strange, the Miyano sisters didn't go into the cafe. Instead, they secretly turned around and left, taking their laptops to a nearby cake shop.

Jiang Chengbei, wearing a camera and an earpiece, entered the coffee shop and told the Miyano sisters to find out Amuro Tooru's purpose in working there as a waiter.

After Jiang Chengbei went inside, Xiaolan gave him a disapproving look: "Jiang Cheng, didn't I tell you to keep an eye on Conan? Why did he come along?"

"I was watching them. It's just that Conan and my sister-in-law wanted to eat cake, so I brought them here to buy cake. It just so happened that we ran into you, and then the clever little Conan ran off halfway through."

"Conan wants some cake?" Ran's eyes lit up upon hearing Jiang Chengbei's words, and she said to Conan:

"Conan, I'm going to buy you a cake. Be a good girl and take it home to eat. Don't disturb your date, okay?"

After saying that, Ran patted Conan's big head, said goodbye to Amuro Tooru, turned around and walked towards the cake shop where the Miyano sisters had gone.

After Ran left, Amuro Tooru and Conan's eyes lit up.

After searching for so long, Amuro Tooru finally found out where Shinichi Kudo was. Conan finally had an ally in Amuro Tooru, the police officer.

"Touko, what are you doing here? You've switched jobs so heartlessly. I, your former boss, miss you terribly."

You left after only a few days. Luckily, we agreed on an annual salary, otherwise I would have lost a lot of money.

Having previously learned from Conan and Ran that Shinichi Kudo was coming here, and now seeing Jiang Chengbei here, Amuro Tooru wondered if Shinichi Kudo and Jiang Chengbei were in cahoots.

He received the task from the sake brewery when he sought out Shinichi Kudo.

The reason was that Shinichi Kudo used an armed helicopter to bomb the base of Shirahato Pharmaceutical.

The base of Shirakyu Pharmaceuticals was of a rather high level; Amuro Tooru didn't even know it was a liquor company's property before it was bombed.

However, the fact that the bombing enraged the higher-ups, and that the police discovered a large amount of high-tech equipment debris during the cleanup, suggests that the place was actually a high-level secret laboratory.
