Kurokawa Saki ended the call and rubbed her face.
Well, the reason why she didn't kill Margaret and used her ability was to try fishing the undercover agent who exposed Scotland. Unfortunately, she failed to do that as the organization has other undercover, someone at lower rank who was basically useless.
It was frustrating.
But eh, let's just try again.
If Margaret was not enough, she'll try to use other people. In the meantime, no. 5 can try to do an internal review for his people.
"You don't have to do this, Yuki." Morofushi Hiromitsu was worried when he heard about Kurokawa Saki's plan.
If she continued to fish, the organization might even suspect her.
"It's fine. I don't want to fail just because there's a nail among us." Kurokawa Saki shrugged nonchalantly. As an undercover agent herself, she knew the importance of intelligence very well.
With her being around them and gaining their trust, she was basically ruining their business from the inside.
It's despicable indeed.
But this is work.
And Kurokawa Saki also couldn't just let them kill those innocent people without doing anything.
"Don't worry, I'll be fine." Kurokawa Saki smiled and then made her way to Mouri Kogoro place. She has an agreement to play with Mouri Ran and Suzuki Sonoko.
Since Rum was making a move on Margaret, she was also making her 'alibi' obvious.
After all, she was one of the few people who had close contact with Margaret. Even if it was just a one time defensive attack, but Kurokawa Saki didn't want to be troubled.
"Ah, Sister Yuki, you're here." Mouri Ran smiled brightly when she saw Hikari Yuki. "Come in, Sonoko has brought the game."
"Hello, sorry to intrude." Hikari Yuki gave a gentle and cute smile. She walked inside and saw Sonoko was glaring at the screen.
"Ah, Sister Yuki, have you ever played this? Can you help me?"
"I haven't played it, but I can try."
"Yes!"
So when Conan came back, he was speechless to see three girls were playing happily. This was the first time he saw Hikari Yuki visiting them, so he took a look at their game.
Oh, it's an Otome Game…
Conan: "..."
Why are they playing this kind of game, ah?
"Ran neechan, I'm hungry," Conan immediately acted coquettish and pulled Mouri Ran arm.
"Ah, Conan, wait a minute and I'll prepare dinner."
"Tsk, you're pampering that brat." Suzuki Sonoko clicked her tongue in annoyance. She couldn't understand why Ran was so tolerant of Conan.
"Conan is still a child."
Conan gave a foolish smile.
Hikari Yuki looked at him with an intrigued smile. "I see. Coincidentally, we're also hungry, so can I trouble you, Ran? I brought some ingredients and juices."
"No problem." Mouri Ran replied gently.
Hikari Yuki really felt that Mouri Ran is like an angel. Well, it is only when she's not angry about something.
After all, if she's angry, a broken table was already very light.
Mouri Kogoro returned at night, reeking in alcohol. Mouri Ran looked embarrassed, Sonoko and Conan rolled their eyes, and Hikari Yuki looked tolerant.
"Oh, right, there's a new commission, Dad." Mouri Ran said and showed a letter. "It's from Sanno Temple."
Sanno Temple?
Kyoto?
Kurokawa Saki blinked her eyes and her expression turned a bit strange. If she was not wrong, there was indeed recent news about it.
Tokyo Metropolitan Police Headquarters, the local police, supported by Inspectors Otaki from Osaka and Ayanokoji from Kyoto, hold a press conference about the ongoing investigation of the rogue samurai's bloodshed.
They all belonged to an infamous gang of robbers called Genjibotaru. The famous gang has mostly stolen Buddha statues and they have been active since 1991, mostly in Tokyo, Osaka, and Kyoto. Their members are named after servants of Yoshitsune and everyone owns a book called "Yoshitsune Chronicles", which is the book the murderer took from each of his victims. Now, all but three members have been killed. When asked about the killer, Otaki explains that currently, all they know is that the killer is skilled in archery and swordsmanship. The police have no clues to the identity of the remaining three robbers, neither their names nor their genders.
Kurokawa Saki coincidentally saw it this morning while doing her work and waiting for news from Karin.
She has been thinking that this might be the next important case and was wondering whether it would happen anytime soon. Anyway, hearing that it's in Kyoto, Kurokawa Saki's interest doubled.
Because she was still planning on getting more information on Malbec.
Ever since she cut off his influence and connection in Osaka, he has been trying to make trouble with her. If it was not because he was really busy lately, Kurokawa Saki was sure that he would definitely make trouble with her.
But if she was asked to participate in the case….
Kurokawa Saki looked at the riddles in the letter and fell into silence.
Sorry, she better not humiliate herself.
It has never been her strong point to solve riddles. Thankfully, even if the members of the organization also used riddles when speaking, it was still relatively easy to understand.
"Hmm, I… blergh…"
Seeing Mouri Kogoro's situation, Hikari Yuki shook her head and said, "Ran, take care of Mr. Mouri. I'll head back home first."
"Thank you. Sorry for the sight." Mouri Ran looked embarrassed and then dragged her father up.
It was really embarrassing.
Conan shook his head as he looked at the letter in front of him.
"I'm planning to go on a trip to Kyoto. Do you want to come along, Sister Yuki?" Sonoko asked excitedly.
"I don't really want to be involved in cases." Hikari Yuki had a helpless expression. "I have had enough when Kudo Shinichi is still around."
Conan looked away.
It seemed that he met Hikari Yuki a few times in the past… all because of cases.
Well, it was not his fault, all right!
"But it'll be fun to go to Kyoto."
"I can go with you to Kyoto." Hikari Yuki chuckled. "But I won't be going to Sanno Temple after our arrival."
"Aww, it's ok then! We can talk about other things! Sister Yuki, do you have any photos of handsome guys when you're studying?"
"Hmm, I don't really like taking photos and taking photos without permission is impolite, isn't it?" Hikari Yuki looked at Sonoko speechlessly.
She felt that this Sonoko is even more shameless than what she had seen in the comic.
But… she already has Makoto Kyogoku, right?
Hikari Yuki silently counted the timeline and felt that she was correct.
Though, Conan's timeline actually felt chaotic for her when she was reading the comic because there seems to be several valentine days in a year. But there's no unreasonable time jump after she came here.
At most…
Conan simply encountered more cases than ever.
Hikari Yuki felt that there's almost no day without Conan encountering cases. She felt some pity for the police officers on duty right now.
Because she was absolutely sure that they had to write a lot of reports.
"That's true." Sonoko nodded but still looked disappointed.
Hikari Yuki shook her head in amusement. "I'll be going first. See you later, Ran, Sonoko, and Conan."
As for Kogoro… He had fainted a long time ago.
From being drunk of course.
Hikari Yuki shook her head and made her way back. Before going to Kyoto, she had some things that she needed to prepare.
