"Li Yue-kun, where are we going next?"

"Of course we should go find that Bleach. He has now turned into a little boy and is living in someone else's house. We can go directly to him and take a look. For my godfather's research, there is nothing more convenient than getting close to him directly."

"That's right, it's easier to just face the research directly when it comes to research."

Aizen nodded affirmatively.

"So, we can just go directly to that Bleach."

As Li Yue spoke, she raised her hand to a taxi that happened to be passing by, and the taxi stopped in front of Li Yue.

"Let's go, that place is much farther from here than where we got off Gin's car. Let's just take a car there!"

After saying that, Li Yue opened the car door and got in, and Aizen followed her into the back seat.

After Aizen the car door, Li Yue patted the driver on the shoulder.

"Please go to the Beika Town Mouri Detective Agency, 5-chome 39, Beika-cho."

427. The Black Organization comes knocking.

The Mouri Detective Agency is a private detective agency run by Mori Kogoro. However, while Mori Kogoro is quite skilled at using a gun as a police officer, his ability to solve cases is rather poor, resulting in the agency having little success and a very poor business situation.

Mori Kogoro is a guy who likes horse racing, drinking, and sleeping, so the agency's business has been getting worse and worse since it opened. The cases they usually get are things like finding lost cats, dogs, or lost children.

However, this situation changed after Professor Agasa placed Edogawa Conan in the Mori family's care. As a result, the number of requests they received increased, and the requests became more and more sophisticated.

Of course, the high-end phase begins in the middle of the story. With Conan's actions, Mori Kogoro begins to become famous and even has the nickname "Sleeping Kogoro." With the arrival of this nickname, he gradually enters the sight of high-end people and even begins to frequent various high-end occasions.

Of course, this is also related to the fact that his daughter Mori Ran's best friend is the heiress of the Suzuki Corporation. By associating with Suzuki Sonoko, he can frequently attend high-end events, and then solve a case in those events, instantly gaining popularity.

As of now, Haibara Ai has not yet appeared, so this is considered the very early stage of the early stage.

Even in this early stage, Mori Kogoro had already gained some fame.

Are you two going to see Detective Mori?

"Oh? Mr. Driver knows Detective Mouri?"

"Of course! Detective Mouri has been in the newspapers a lot lately, known as the Sleeping Kogoro! He's a famous detective in Tokyo!"

In the taxi, when Li Yue revealed that he was going to see Mori Kogoro, the taxi driver immediately became interested and started chatting with Li Yue.

"I've read several reports about him, and I have to say, Detective Mori is really good at showing off."

"He would always find a good corner and lie down to sleep. After falling asleep, he would become incredibly calm and his mind would be incredibly clear. He could easily describe all the killer's methods. He was really amazing."

"It seems the driver is a fan of Detective Mori."

"It's not that he's a fan, it's just that he's really good at showing off."

The driver smiled and shook his head, explaining to Li Yue as he drove.

"I have a friend who studies medicine. He often reads reports about Mori Kogoro, and based on his medical knowledge, he deduced that Detective Mouri has a very strong case of dissociative identity disorder. His primary personality collects clues at crime scenes, while his secondary personality categorizes the clues collected by the primary personality, thus directly analyzing the culprit's murder method!"

Goodness, it's even a case of dissociative identity disorder.

Li Yue looked at the driver speaking with such seriousness and couldn't help but want to laugh.

Why do you make this judgment?

"According to my doctor friend, the reason he fell into a deep sleep was because his alternate personality emerged, which overwhelmed the main personality, causing him to fall down. Then the main personality went into a deep sleep, while the alternate personality took the lead in analyzing cases. Therefore, he could speak and solve cases, but he was unable to move, so to others it looked like he was asleep!"

As the driver spoke, his face was full of pride, brimming with a sense of accomplishment that his knowledge surpassed that of others.

"Oh, I see."

Li Yue also cooperated by holding the driver's arm.

"Your friend is really amazing. He was able to make that diagnosis. He must be an extremely skilled doctor."

"Sigh~ He's just an ordinary doctor. He's just read some basic mystery novels, so he did some simple deductions."

Is this the Conan World? Doctors are even reading mystery novels and doing simple deductions.

However, the people in this world are really like this. In addition to the many detectives in this world, the assassins in this world are also incredibly skilled. In order to kill the enemies they want to kill, they also have to create their own alibis. These assassins are all proficient in locked-room murders, murders committed in public, and even framing people in public. If you don't know any deduction, you will really be completely confused when you see those murder cases.

Amidst laughter and conversation with the driver, the taxi arrived at the Mouri Detective Agency.

The Mouri Detective Agency has three floors. The first floor is a coffee shop, the second floor is the agency, and the third floor is where the Mouri family, including Conan, lives.

Wishing you a wonderful life!

After saying goodbye to Li Yue, the taxi driver drove away. Li Yue and Aizen turned to look at the three-story building in front of them. In Japan, this kind of detached building is very common. The sign was also very classic, pasted on the second-floor window, highlighting simplicity and straightforwardness.

So, should we go up now?

Aizen looked up at the Mouri Detective Agency and asked Li Yue, having already activated his Reiatsu perception, that there were three Reiatsu above, meaning there were three people there.

"Yes, we're going up, but before we do, we need to make a small change."

As Li Yue spoke, she snapped her fingers at Aizen. Aizen's white trench coat, which was originally the standard at Las Noches, instantly transformed into a black trench coat similar to Gin's. Li Yue's clothes also turned into a black trench coat. Like Gin, she not only wore a black trench coat, but also black pants, black leather shoes, and even a black hat. She looked exactly like a member of the Black Organization.

"Okay, that's all."

Aizen looked at his clothes and remembered what Li Yue had said before: Kudo Shinichi was drugged by Gin and turned into a child. Was he deliberately dressing like this to find Kudo Shinichi, just to scare him to death?

However, Aizen did not refuse and accompanied Li Yue upstairs.

The entrance to the Mori office is on the second floor. You can go directly up the stairs next to the coffee shop to the second floor and knock on the door.

When Li Yue and Aizen reached the second-floor entrance, he gave them a special reminder.

Yan: "Father, when you open the door later, if you see a little boy with a big head wearing glasses, remember to look at him with the same look you gave the Bleach in Soul Society, like: You're too Pride, I'm going to stand above the heavens, you know?"

"..."

Aizen was speechless, but he still silently followed behind Li Yue, preparing to cooperate after the door opened on the other side.

After giving Aizen, Li Yue went up and knocked on the door. A voice immediately came from inside; it was Mori Kogoro.

"Kid! Go open the door!"

Why me?

"You just go because I tell you to? You want to get beaten up, don't you?!"

Hmm, that fits my stereotype of Mori Kogoro. Since Conan always injects Mori Kogoro in the neck, then Kogoro can also punch Conan's head in the head every time. Conan's head has been punched by Kogoro countless times, just like Kogoro's neck has countless needle marks.

"Seriously, I'll go."

Conan's voice came through, followed by a series of light footsteps, and then the door to the agency opened.

The moment the door was opened, Aizen's gentle gaze, which he had shown when he was with Li Yue, instantly transformed into that of the aloof and superior Lord Aizen of Las Noches, who looked down at Conan, who had opened the door, taking advantage of his height.

As soon as Conan opened the door, he immediately felt a gaze that sent chills down his spine! He even felt his body become heavy, as if something was pressing down on his chest, making it incredibly difficult to breathe. In a short moment, sweat began to pour from his forehead.

It's Reiatsu! Aizen has added Reiatsu!

To accommodate Li Yue's request, Aizen deliberately added a tiny bit of Reiatsu that an ordinary person could withstand. Sure enough, the combination of this Reiatsu and his gaze had a tremendous effect.

Conan, sweating profusely, was stunned when he opened the door. When he looked up at the unsettling gaze, he was terrified, his expression contorting into a grimace. What had he seen?!

Two men dressed in black trench coats, black trousers, black leather shoes, black socks, black top hats, and black gloves stood at the entrance of the firm, emanating an aura that filled him with fear!

No mistake, absolutely no mistake. These two people gave him the exact same feeling as the two people he met at the amusement park that night. No, that's not right! These two people gave him an even more terrifying feeling than those two! These two people were definitely in cahoots with those two people. This was completely different from when his parents pretended to be members of the Black Organization to fool him. They were real killers. These two people had really killed people!

Conan's body stiffened instantly. He stood at the doorway, looking up with wide eyes and a face full of terror at the two men in front of him.

Especially the brown-haired man staring at him—that gaze was that of someone eyeing prey! Although he hadn't encountered many professional assassins, his intuition as a detective told him that the other man recognized him! And had already confirmed it was him!

What the other man in black said next further confirmed his guess.

After opening the door, Li Yue, who had been keeping her head down and letting the brim of her hat cover her face, slightly raised her head and looked at Conan.

The new perspective made Conan shift his gaze and meet Li Yue's eyes.

After making eye contact with Conan, Li Yue's lips gradually turned up, her mouth stretched wide, revealing a terrifying and sinister smile that could make the neighbor's child cry all night.

"We've finally found it!"

!!!!!!!

Sure enough, they discovered they weren't dead, and they came looking for them!

Conan took a step back, then was horrified to see Li Yue raising her right hand and reaching into the inside pocket of her trench coat, slowly pulling something out—it was long and thin.

Oh no! They're going to pull out their guns! They're going to kill people right here!

Uncle Mori and Ran are here too!

"Xiao Lan, hurry..."

However, before Conan could finish his warning, Li Yue had already handed it to him.

"Little friend, would you like some candy?"

In his hand was a lollipop.

Huh?

428. His name is Aizen, and he is nearsighted.

"Please have some tea, gentlemen."

"Thanks."

Inside the Mouri Detective Agency, Li Yue and Aizen sat on the sofa, and Mori Ran placed two cups of tea in front of them.

Normally, Aizen would come in his spirit form, but this time he specially put on a Gigai so that others could see him. Therefore, Aizen Mori Ran and Conan could see him, as could the taxi driver from before. Of course, if it's for convenience, he can take off the Gigai again and exist as a spirit.

As Mori Ran served tea to the two of them, Mori Kogoro sat opposite them, looking at them with a fawning smile.

"So, you two are here to commission something?"

"That's right, we're here to make a request."

Li Yue answered with a big smile.

"We've heard so much about Detective Mori that we came all the way from out of town. That's why I was so excited when I saw him at the door and exclaimed, 'We've finally found him!'"

"Hahaha, really? My name is already that famous now?"

Upon hearing Li Yue's words, Mori Kogoro immediately became smug, his entire appearance becoming more cartoonish, with his eyes curving upwards and a comical expression on his face.

"That's right, who doesn't know about the Sleeping Kogoro now? Legend has it that no matter how difficult the case is, Mori Kogoro can easily solve it. As long as he falls asleep, the criminal will meet his demise under his accurate reasoning!"

"Haha, no, no, that's too much of an exaggeration. Hahahaha."

Mori Kogoro put his hands on his hips, tilted his head back, and laughed loudly.

"I only did a little reasoning, but the prisoners were impressed by my brilliant reasoning."

"Dad!"

Mori Ran, watching Kogoro's arrogant demeanor, couldn't stand it. Conan, standing next to Mori Ran, simply gave her his signature speechless half-moon look.

Here we go again. This guy gets all cocky as soon as he gets a little flattery.

Incidentally, he was still holding the lollipop that Li Yue had given him earlier.

Just when he thought Li Yue was going to pull out a gun and kill him, which would also implicate Mori Ran and Mori Kogoro, Li Yue pulled a lollipop out of the trench coat and handed it to Conan, leaving Conan, who was already halfway through his call, completely dumbfounded.

Urged by Li Yue, he accepted the lollipop, only to be pulled away by Mori Ran ran over, saying he shouldn't stand at the door blocking guests from coming in.

Even now, Conan is still bewildered. He glances at Kogoro, who is still smugly standing there, then looks down at the lollipop in his hand and falls into deep thought.

What's going on? Why is it a lollipop? Shouldn't it be a gun?

He looked up again at Aizen and Li Yue sitting on the sofa. He wasn't mistaken; they were wearing black hats, black trench coats, black trousers, and black shoes, and even black gloves. They looked exactly like the two people from before, without any difference. Moreover, when the door opened, he did feel a chilling aura. It was definitely an assassin!

Seemingly sensing Conan's gaze, Aizen turned to look at him again, this time with a contemptuous look. In an instant, Conan was reminded of the fear of being controlled by the Black Organization, and a cold sweat broke out on his back.

That's right, this guy is definitely a member of the Black Organization. This feeling, this chilling feeling that makes people's hearts pound just by looking at him, he is definitely a terrifying assassin!

Conan really wanted to warn Kogoro, who was chatting with Li Yue, but considering the current situation, he decided against it. If he told Kogoro, Kogoro would only make one of two choices. Although Kogoro seemed useless and incompetent, he was actually a former police officer with excellent marksmanship and a strong sense of justice. Once he learned that they were assassins, he would definitely act out of his sense of justice and choose to take action against them.

Another possibility is that Kogoro treats Conan like a fart, does nothing, just thinks Conan is talking nonsense, and then punches Conan, adding another record to Conan's head.

Moreover, given Conan's understanding of Kogoro, the second possibility is more likely, so let's not discuss it further.

Moreover, Kogoro wasn't the only one here; Ran was also there. If Ran got hurt, he would never forgive himself, because he couldn't let his own problems drag Ran down with him. So for now, he could only remain silent.
