That way, he would neither have to worry that telling Jiang Xia about the Black Organization would make Jiang Xia follow in "Kudo Shinichi's" footsteps, nor worry that the Black Organization would offer Jiang Xia a treacherous olive branch while he knew nothing about society's darker side.
Still, speaking of which...
Conan recalled the call he had just made to Kudo Yusaku, his eyes narrowing into crescents. His dad's connections were way too powerful. He had actually managed to find out Vodka's objective?
"..." Damn it, I really want someone to lean on. Maybe then, destroying the Organization, obtaining the Antidote, and turning back into Kudo Shinichi would all go much faster.
But if he did that, his parents might bring up the old matter again and urge him to leave this place for the safer United States...
Thinking of Jiang Xia when he solved cases, Conan somewhat wanted to leave.
But when he thought of Mouri Ran, he felt that staying would be better after all.
After agonizing over it for 0.5 seconds, Conan reaffirmed his resolve.
—Stay in Japan and pursue the investigation himself.
Leaning on someone might be easy, but with his current child-sized body, he might not be able to help with the things his dad could do.
In other words, if he attached himself to Kudo Yusaku, then he, "Kudo Shinichi," as an excellent source of clues, would be completely wasted.
"..." Sure enough, father and son should each handle one side, then pool their clues at the end.
Maybe when the time came, his side would actually be further ahead.
Before destroying the email, Conan read it over one last time.
Then he felt that Kudo Yusaku had been unusually talkative today. He had actually typed such a long message.
Conan: "..."
