Chapter 271: Good at Guessing
"Anything else?" Bai Zhi leaned against the door with her eyes closed. If she hadn't asked this question lightly, Kudo Yusaku would have thought she was asleep.
"Kaito Kidd's fighting power is not high, but he is good at escaping and stealing. Your cooperation with him must be for these purposes." Kudo Yusaku continued: "And the organization forcibly kept you for so long and then released you. You could have stayed away from them, but you had to get close to them..."
"You're both so conflicted, so I guess you found that some of the experiments they were doing with you made some unexpected progress?"
"Kaito Kid is good at imitating theft and escape. You probably want him to sneak deep into the organization to steal or check experimental data, right?" Kudo Yusaku thought.
"Your guess is very sharp. Under normal circumstances, it should be like this. Unfortunately, you are wrong." Bai Zhi shook her head gently: "My purpose is not to steal, but to advance."
Kudo Yusaku: "What!?"
"They opened the door to hell and wanted to find out what was going on. Of course I had to give it a push... cough cough." Bai Zhi coughed twice: "But this is not what you wanted to tell me."
"I did learn about some of the situation here before I came here. I heard that there is someone who has a good relationship with Mr. Amuro. I didn't expect that person to be you." Kudo Yusaku chose his words carefully: "Actually, I was surprised before this. I thought you would just charge the price directly."
"But then I figured it out. Anything you don't take is your bargaining chip. Mr. Amuro must have encountered some danger, right?" Kudo Yusaku said casually, "I guess you have a good relationship with him."
Pretty good at guessing.
Bai Zhi still closed her eyes and said nothing.
"I didn't expect that you care about Mr. Amuro so much that you gave up collecting the price I should pay for him." Seeing that Bai Zhi didn't refute, Kudo Yusaku smiled: "I can help you."
Bai Zhi: “Ahem…”
"I don't care about him." Bai Zhi looked away unnaturally: "But if you want to help, it's not impossible."
Kudo Yusaku raised his eyebrows and looked at Bai Zhi with something strange in his eyes.
“Is that so…?” Kudo Yusaku felt as if he knew something extraordinary.
This may not be good news in some ways. From what Kudo Yusaku secretly investigated, Toru Amuro values results more than process. In other words, he may sacrifice anything to achieve a certain goal.
And Angelica dahurica.
Kudo Yusaku was sure that he was a thorough businessman and cared about results no less than Amuro Toru.
If the result is on their side, it's fine. But if it's not on their side...
"But then again, what do you need my help with?" Kudo Yusaku held up his chin, and this action was really similar to Conan: "In my opinion, you can do whatever you want with the chips, but if you ask me for help, you owe me a favor."
“I don’t think this is a wise approach.”
Unless what you want is far more than its value.
Compared to Conan, Kudo Yusaku is obviously much more cautious.
"Indeed, I was originally planning to handle this matter myself, but a few days ago, I changed my mind." Bai Zhi said calmly: "You, have a way to contact your brother."
Kudo Yusaku: “?”
"What?" Kudo Yusaku didn't react.
"I was unsure at first, but when I met Kuroba Kaito, I discovered that his blood resonated with Conan's. They are relatives." Bai Zhi said, "Moreover, they are within three generations."
"So, Mr. Yusaku, I want to know the contact information of the first generation Kaito Kid." Bai Zhi looked directly at Kudo Yusaku: "Kuroba Toichi, the first generation Kaito Kid, am I right?"
"... Well, it's really difficult to hide a magic lady." The silence lasted for a while, and Kudo Yusaku smiled softly: "Just this?"
"Zero... No, Toru Amuro will be back in half a month, and Gin will target him. I want you to take Shuichi Akai to kill Gin." Bai Zhi stood up with the help of the door.
Kudo Yusaku hesitated.
If the question is about assisting in the arrest, Kudo Yusaku would probably agree readily.
But Bai Zhi said it very clearly, it means killing.
Baizhi wanted Gin to die, and to die on the spot, without contacting the police or other FBI agents, and killed him privately, which went against Kudo Yusaku's psychological ethics.
"I think you don't need to hesitate. I will bring you something you can't imagine." Bai Zhi said calmly: "Do you know how to make the story start to develop on its own?"
"Quickly end an original story, disrupt the chessboard, and create a new chessboard."
Kudo Yusaku: "..."
Kudo Yusaku: "Then how can you be sure that this is not just another story written by another author?"
"No... No, you led me into a misunderstanding from the beginning." Suddenly, Kudo Yusaku felt cold in his heart: "Actually, I don't need to make a deal with you about these things."
"Haha." Bai Zhi raised the corner of her lips: "That's not the case. It's hard for anyone to care about a story that has ended. Maybe someone will savor your past over and over again, but your future will extend like tree roots."
"There is nothing wrong with you asking me for help. It's just that the question you asked me for help is very boring." Bai Zhi shook her head: "Sometimes, the smarter people are, the more likely they are to get stuck in a rut."
Kudo Yusaku stopped talking.
He knew that he had to help.
This is the case for everyone who makes a deal. When they put their fingerprints down to show their willingness to pay the price, they must agree to any conditions put forward. The price is real and Baizhi can choose to collect it or not at any time.
The conditions and regulations are flexible, but the price is fixed, and the premise of flexibility is Angelica dahurica.
"You are truly a businessman through and through." Kudo Yusaku commented.
"Thank you for your award." Bai Zhi smiled, turned around and pressed the door handle.
"Ms. Baizhi, one last question." Kudo Yusaku suddenly asked, "If everyone is part of a story, do you think I am a meaningful person?"
"..." Bai Zhi turned her head, her eyes were filled with dusk, and it was hard to tell whether it was silence or a sigh.
"You are real, love is real, and questions like meaning are meaningless in themselves."
The door was opened, and Conan and the others sat on the sofa, staring at the direction of the door. The moment the door was opened, the three of them didn't even have time to look away.
It was obvious that the three of them were staring at this place nervously for a long time.
"Woof!"
The little white ball suddenly pounced on Bai Zhi and she lost her balance and fell on her back.
"Σ(っ°Д°;)っWowah——"
Then, the wet tongue tried desperately to lick Baizhi's face, but Baizhi was quick to grab the dog's mouth.
"Meituan, take care of your boyfriend!"
