Chapter 93: Ambassador of the Bridge
Chapter 93: Ambassador of the Bridge (Part )
Hiroki Sawada took out a tablet from under his pillow, and after a few operations, he opened a mini mailbox interface.
This tablet is a high-tech product based on the prototype of the smartphone that Gin mentioned by chance when he first chatted with Hiroki.
Although I can’t access the Internet, it’s limited to the outside world.
Hiroki Sawada can connect to the Internet at home by using his computer as a network base station...
Yes, that's right!
Hiroki also developed wireless networks, but he didn't realize it yet.
After opening the email, Hiroki read the content carefully, and his expression was somewhat happy at first: Uncle Ren actually asked him to move to Tokyo!
I heard there is the largest amusement park in Japan!
The excitement lasted less than five seconds in Hiroki Sawada's heart, and then his expression fell.
Noah captured Hiroki's emotional changes through the camera and asked worriedly: "Hiroki, what's wrong? Is there any bad news?"
"Well, it's not bad..."
There was a hint of melancholy on Hiroki's still young face.
"Uncle Ren asked me to go to elementary school, preferably starting from the first grade..."
But to be fair, Hiroki was not very willing to go to school because of his early experience studying in Japan.
Noah's program was running slightly, and he peeked at the content of the email, "Teitan Elementary School... Hiroki, I found information about Teitan Elementary School on the Internet. It has a good reputation and is considered a semi-aristocratic school. Most of the students are intellectuals, and there are very few descendants of high-ranking officials studying there..."
Sawada Hiroki blinked and said, "Now that you mention it, it seems okay."
"And it seems to be different from the previous school you mentioned, Hiroki." Noah continued to search the Internet with its intelligent brain, "It seems to have a lot of club activities..."
"Really?" Hiroki Sawada looked at the information Noah shared with him, and his eyes lit up slightly.
It seems that this school does look good.
"Besides, Hiroki, you don't go to school just for studying."
Noah's CPU was very flexible. "Didn't Master Blade tell you to pay special attention to the child named Conan?"
"Right……"
Hiroki Sawada smiled. He was indeed thinking too much just now.
But he suddenly slapped his forehead and said, "Oh, right! I need to talk to Uncle Ying and contact the moving company."
"Don't worry, I've already contacted the moving company, and our order will be among the earliest batch tomorrow." Noah was neither arrogant nor impatient.
"As expected of Noah!" Hiroki Sawada gave a thumbs up.
-
Next door to Hiroki.
A high school boy is packing his makeup box.
"Well, I'll be leaving now! I have to go to class tomorrow."
"Kaito-kun, are you leaving now?" A man with light pink hair came out of the room holding a can of milk. "Want to drink some?"
"…Then let's have a drink, thank you Mr. Ying."
The pink-haired man is Ying, one of the leaders of the Five Star Team, Gin's partner, and in a sense even less reliable than Rei...
The high school student who appeared in his house was Kuroba Kaito, also known as the Kaito Kid.
And there was another person in the room...
"Kaito-kun's disguise technique is really exquisite... I have studied it for so many days and still can't figure out how he did it."
An ordinary man stood in front of the mirror, poking his face gently, feeling a little emotional.
Ying also poured a glass of milk and handed it to him with a smile, "That is to say, if it weren't for Kaito-kun, Jingguang you would have to stay here forever without seeing the sun!" The plain-looking man turned around, took the milk, and said helplessly: "What can I do? After all, I'm already a dead man..."
At this time, Kuroba Kaito showed a serious expression.
He was really curious...
"Um, Brother Zhufu, I've actually wanted to ask you before... who are you?"
There's even a plot about faking one's own death and living in seclusion. This organization must really be a secret service, right?
Kuroba Kaito thought secretly in his heart.
After discussing it with Grandpa Terai at home that day, he decided to join the Five Star Team... But he didn't expect that after he officially joined, the introducer actually gave him an extra piece of information:
His father might not be dead.
Here we have to mention Kuroba Kaito's father, Kuroba Toichi, a world-famous magician, but he died in an accident eight years ago...
At least everyone, including Kuroba Kaito, thinks so.
In order to know the information about his father, Kuroba Kaito was remotely ordered by Gin to do a task that was very easy for him - to help someone disguise themselves.
The target of the disguise is Zhu Fu Jingguang who lives with Ying.
Kuroba Kaito has become familiar with all of them... including Retsu who didn't come back today, and Hiroki who lives next door.
But every time he came, Kuroba Kaito would always hear some topics that he didn't quite understand or guess:
For example, Mr. Ying would sometimes jokingly say to Brother Morobushi, "Kagemitsu! Give me a Scotch!"
And every time, Brother Zhufu would helplessly reply with words like "Stop making trouble, it will be bad if others hear it" and so on.
A plain-looking man...
Or rather, it was Zhu Fu Jingguang who, after his disguise, looked at Ying inquiringly, "Ying, my business..."
Ying blinked and shrugged nonchalantly, "Oh, your past! Just say whatever you want. Anyway, you are nominally at the same level, and you are both under Brother Ren's command. It's okay."
"Huh... that's good." Zhu Fushiki breathed a sigh of relief, turned to look at Kuroba Kaito, whose face was full of 'I'm curious', and said solemnly, "In fact... I was originally a member of the Japanese Public Security Bureau."
"Public security?!"
Kuroba Kaito's eyes widened.
He suddenly felt like he was walking into a wolf's den, and the corners of his mouth twitched, "Um, Brother Zhu Fu, you won't arrest me, will you?"
"...Eh? No, even though you're a Phantom Thief, if you haven't hurt anyone, the public security won't really care about that."
Zhu Fujing's eyes widened, and then he explained with a wry smile.
Hearing Kuroba Kaito sighing, he immediately asked curiously, "Then, why did Brother Zhufu fake his death?"
"This one……"
Zhu Fu Jingguang pondered for a long time, probably thinking about where to start.
After thinking for a while, he cleared his throat and looked at Kuroba Kaito seriously and said:
“Well, let me make it short…it happened five years ago.
Five years ago, I was assigned by my superiors to go undercover in a mysterious criminal group... It was a very large, dark, transnational criminal organization. Even now, when I think back, I still can't get a glimpse of its true face."
Zhu Fu Jingguang drank the remaining milk and continued, "In that organization, capable people can get a code name, and each code name is named after a wine... Of course, the prerequisite is to gain the trust of the superiors.
My code name in the organization was...
—'Scotch'.
