"What do you mean?" Hattori asked cautiously, vaguely understanding Conan's thoughts.

Behind the reflective black-rimmed glasses, his brows were slightly furrowed, and his eyes raised, "Is the relationship between Kuroba Pirates and the organization really as simple as Kaito thought?"

The cold wind outside the house was blowing more bitterly, and it hit the window repeatedly, making a slight 'bump' sound, as if it wanted to pry out the secret hidden in the room.Although the seemingly transparent but stubborn glass constitutes a solid fortress, it still can't stop a trace of cold wind from getting in through the gap, making people shiver.

"It's really strange." Hakuba clasped his hands habitually, his blue eyes were like sea water. "First of all, Akino Amano, although I can't be sure whether what he said to Kaito is true or not, but I can confirm that he has a good opinion of Black Feather Pirates." The understanding is extraordinary. And if the sixth sense of Haibara Ai, who was once a member of the organization, is correct, this person may also have some connection with the organization... Next is the one named Belmore According to the conversation between her and the man named GIN that Hattori heard. Belmore seems to have violated the order of the leader of the organization and tried to save Kaito's life. There are two explanations for this. One is that Belmore She really couldn't bear to kill a teenager. But this seems to be inconsistent with her identity as a member of the organization. Then there is a second possibility, she is not unwilling to kill, but unwilling to kill the son of an old friend."

"I don't know exactly what's going on with Amano Akihito, but Belmode does have some connections with Kaito's father."

"Kudou, what do you know?" Hattori was a little surprised, but he also knew very well that his partner never made random guesses.

"Belmore, or more precisely the movie star Chris Wynyard, and my mother once worshiped Black Feather Pirates as a teacher to learn the skills of disguise. But in comparison, it is obvious that Belmore is darker. The true biography of Feather Robber One."

Remembering that he had personally experienced Kudo's mother's disguise technique, Hattori nodded, "I see. I'm still wondering how my aunt could change her face. If so, can it be understood that Belmore's thought of the old master-student relationship Try to keep Kaito safe. Or, Belmore is deeply loved by the boss, even if he accidentally violates his orders, it will not cause too serious consequences for him."

"Other members of the organization know about this matter. In order to maintain his authority, the boss should not condone this matter. Moreover, doing so would be too risky for Belmore and even the organization. So the second assumption should not be true. .” After Conan’s brain was running at high speed for a while, he finally came to a negative conclusion. "According to my mother, the reason why they learned disguise from Black Feather Pirate One was out of work needs. The total amount of time before and after was only a few months. I don't think Belmore's learning is for the sake of the former master and apprentice." If there is no other reason, after eight years, how could a woman like her who kills without blood would be willing to take risks for a son of a former master. So the second hypothesis is probably The possibility is also relatively small. But...... If, between Belmore and Black Feather Pirates, there is more than just a few months of master-student relationship, then it's a different matter."

"What kind of relationship would that be? And even Kudo's mother didn't notice it." Baima obviously didn't believe it.

The train of thought had to be interrupted again, and the air in the room couldn't help becoming more anxious.No one spoke, and the three young detectives lowered their heads, with a deep expression on their faces that did not belong to their peers.

"Let's change our thinking again." After a long time, Hattori chose to break the silence. "Have you noticed that there is still one biggest doubt in the whole incident that we haven't touched yet."

"It turns out that you also discovered it." Baima glanced at Conan who had been maintaining a uniform posture. "It seems that we have been talking for a long time, and we have to go back to the original point."

Conan took up the conversation again tacitly, and took a deep breath. "All doubts seem to be concentrated on one person again."

The three looked at each other, and said a name that they were reluctant to mention at this time.

"Black Feather Pirates!"

"Flopping..." The eagle, which had been quietly listening to the master's conversation, suddenly flapped its wings nervously. The movement was so large that many black feathers fell from the sky without warning.

"Who!" The white horse, who knew his 'assistant' very well, immediately became alert.

"Lan... Sister Lan!" Conan was the first to react when he saw the people outside the door clearly.

"Conan? Hattori, are you here? Why are you here?"

"Oh, that, hehe, Kudo and I...not..."

"It's Miss Mao Lilan. Nice to meet you." Baima stood up gracefully, showing a very gentlemanly smile, "I asked them to meet here. I recently took a difficult case, and the murderer seemed to intend to imitate The plot in Yusaku Kudo’s novel, so I thought of coming here to have a look, hoping to find relevant clues to solve the case.”

"......" The eyes of the other two people turned into triangles, and they stared sideways at Tan Baima. They are really liars... no, they are masters at coaxing women. '

"That's right." Xiaolan smiled slightly, "I just passed by, so I came in to take a look. Then I won't bother you. Remember to come back early, Conan."

"Ok!"

She gently closed the door, but her heart was still pounding.She knew that it was because of the scene in the room just now, and the special atmosphere of the detective thinking, which brought back the memories in her heart again.

'Conan and Shinichi really look alike, not only do they like the same posture when thinking, they even sit on the same chair.By the way, why does he have such a good relationship with so many high school detectives, isn't it? Xiao Lan quickly shook her head, trying to drive away her weird thoughts again. "Really, why are you suspicious again? Conan and Shinichi are two completely different people, didn't you know it a long time ago? After all, they have appeared at the same time many times."

Just as Xiaolan left feeling relieved, the three people who had the same concern made the atmosphere in the room gloomy again.

"Kudou, tell me how you feel! It's okay, this is just a private discussion, maybe our worries are just unnecessary."

"Actually, when Kaito described how he became Kidd at the beginning, I was a little skeptical. It's just that I didn't say anything in front of Kaito." Conan paused, as if to clarify his thoughts , After half a sound, the voice with a child's voice remembered again. "There is one thing that I can't understand after thinking about it for a long time. Since Kaito's father Kuroba Robichi was killed by the organization, why there is a tape in the secret room that shows his identity as Kidd? Can this be explained as Pirates knew early on that they might be in danger, so they prepared in advance?"

"If this is the case, then the problem is obvious." Baima continued to analyze with his usual calmness, "What is the reason why Black Feather Pirate One was killed in the end? Is it because the organization is so powerful that even if there is Even if you perceive it, you can't escape?"

"A powerful enemy that I can't even deal with, can Kaito deal with it?" Hattori shook his head with a noncommittal expression on his face, "Then he trusts Kaito too much. What if his only son also What should I do if I lost my life? Black Feather Pirate One should not think that revenge for himself is more important than Kaito's life. I don't think he is such a person! Instead of this, it is more feasible to think about how to get rid of the pursuit."

"Then there are only two possibilities. First, Black Feather Pirates made an arrangement early in the morning to ensure that Black Feather Kaito would not lose his life while avenging himself."

"Kudou, what do you mean, the reason Belmore and Amano Akihito helped Kaito are all related to Kuroba Pirates, maybe even at his behest?"

"If they really have a deep relationship with Kaito's father, then it can somewhat explain the series of contradictory behaviors we inferred just now. But the premise is that their relationship must be close enough that members of an organization like Belmore are willing to Help Kaidou at a great risk." Bai Ma's eyes lit up, his hands were not idle, and he quickly wrote a line of small characters on the notebook. "Although according to my calculation, the possibility of this is only 30%, but this is a good idea."

"There is a second possibility. Let Kaito become the second-generation Kidd not to avenge himself. Instead, he has a more important mission and must be entrusted to him." Conan's gaze slowly swept across his companions, leading Wisdom that does not match his age "And in the mind of Heiyu Pirates, the importance of this mission is enough to make him pay the price of his life, and even make his son take the same risk for it. And this mission must be closely related to the organization contact."

"What kind of mission is it? Wait a minute, Pirate One died because of Pandora. Could this mission be related to this gem?"

"..."

Time passed by in the silence, the sound of the heartbeat and the ticking of the second hand seemed a bit harsh at this time.It wasn't until the sudden roar that this situation was broken.

"I can't do it!" Hattori scratched his head desperately, "If I think about it any more, my head will explode......"

"I think that's it for today. Everything now is just an inference without evidence. It's like an oasis in the desert. Only when you get close to it can you tell whether it's a mirage." The white horse also stretched its stiff body. . "Maybe the truth is simpler or more complicated than we think."

"Maybe soon, when Kuaidou wakes up, everything may turn around again." Conan didn't have too much fear on his face, but there was obvious excitement, just like every time he encountered a difficult puzzle The kind of eagerness to try. "I have a hunch that the organization will take action."
