The Organization of Darkness

Countless faces flashed through Conan Edogawa's mind, swiftly passing by at an astonishing speed.
Then the image stopped on one face.
A face Conan Edogawa considered familiar, although at this moment, this face was not fully visible to him. However, the man with this face, wearing a mask, was standing right beside Furuya Rei.
This Amuro Tooru and Amuro Tooru's aunt.
The little detective was startled by his own thoughts.
Aunt? Mr. Akai?
But Inspector Megure's description of the physical characteristics was truly very similar, and what lady had a height that even Inspector Megure found surprising and memorable for so long?
If only he could see a photo.
Conan Edogawa thought to himself, secretly glancing at Furuya Rei's expression.
Alright, Amuro-nii-san has always been so calm.
It's impossible to tell what he's thinking.
"Speaking of Iko, I haven't seen her in a long time either." Stilo thought pensively, then looked at Furuya Rei, "Tooru-chan, do you still have photos of Iko? If you hadn't mentioned her today, I would have forgotten the fact that your father isn't an only child."
"Oh, of course." Furuya Rei quickly picked up Stilo's words, and instantly matched his story with the Boss, "Auntie has always lived in America, and your Uncle Kashiwatani is in England every year, so their times returning to Japan just missed each other. When did Uncle Kashiwatani and Auntie meet before?"
"Hmm... ten years ago? You were still young then?" Stilo thought for a moment and gave an answer.
As the "auntie" character in their conversation, Okiya Subaru had no sense of presence at all, only standing stiffly to the side.
He could no longer stop the two from conversing, nor could he stop the little detective's vague, assessing gaze directed at him.
Then Okiya Subaru saw Furuya Rei take out his phone, seemingly wanting to show Stilo a photo of his aunt.
Wait!
In Okiya Subaru's heart, Akai Shuichi, having removed his makeup, couldn't quite suppress his internal roar.
Why do you have a photo of Amuro Iko, Amuro-kun? You didn't take this, did you, some kind of sneak shot.
"......"
Furuya Rei found a photo of Amuro Iko on his phone—
Of course, he wasn't some pervert, nor did he have the mood to secretly photograph Akai Shuichi in drag.
Photographing Hiro in drag was meaningful. When Morofushi Hiromitsu disguised himself as a woman before, he took many photos, even right in front of Morofushi Hiromitsu, all secretly stored in system 123.
He would take them all out after the undercover mission ended and slowly enjoy them.
That was the most important thing, unlike Akai Shuichi's photos, which were downloaded from the Organization's forum and kept on his phone, precisely so that one day he could naturally take them out to mock Akai Shuichi.
See, like now.
Furuya Rei handed his phone to Stilo beside him.
Ah... Indeed, it was Rye.
Even knowing Rye was an undercover agent, he hadn't been this angry.
Ha.
He, the Boss of an Organization, his adopted son in the Organization, he wasn't the first adult of Bourbon to be known outside.
Rye, truly hateful!
Okiya Subaru suddenly shivered.
That feeling of being watched by something dirty was truly unsettling.
Even thinking with his toes, the suspicious person, the Organization's Boss, standing beside him, must be the source of this malice.
Ultimately, the source of this abnormal malice was still triggered by Amuro-kun.
Stilo truly liked Amuro-kun.
Okiya Subaru calmly pushed up his glasses, narrowing his eyes at Furuya Rei. The other party smiled, hiding an inexplicable joy.
It would be good if this joy wasn't brought about by him.
The atmosphere on the scene immediately became strange.
Inspector Megure looked left and right, noticing that apart from Kogoro Mori and Ran Mori who arrived later, everyone else looked odd.
Was he the cause?
"Ahem." Inspector Megure, wearing white gloves, covered his mouth and coughed twice, his gaze flying to Furuya Rei's phone, which Stilo was holding.
He glanced at the screen and saw a tall, slender woman in the dark, her long hair and long dress fluttering in the wind.
"Oh, oh, is this a photo from that night?" Inspector Megure's eyes lit up. Amuro Iko had left such a deep impression on him.
Of course, he didn't harbor any ill intentions, he simply felt that Amuro Iko was different from other women he had seen that time.
Moreover, the other party was Amuro-kun's elder, and speaking of which, the first blood relative of Amuro-kun they knew.
Conan Edogawa jumped on his feet but couldn't see, but he felt that Amuro Tooru didn't seem to be looking for the Organization's secrets, so he boldly tugged Furuya Rei's hand.
"Amuro-nii-san, let me see!" The little detective's curious eyes sparkled brightly.
Stilo smiled and squatted down with the phone, at eye level with Conan Edogawa.
The boy's heart raced for a moment.
He had met this man many times. Although he had never known what kind of existence the person in front of him truly was, looking at Amuro-nii-san's attitude towards him, this was definitely not a simple character.
Connecting it to what Amuro-nii-san had been doing recently, the identity of this seemingly refined middle-aged man in front of him became very clear.
He was definitely from the Organization, and possibly even an important codenamed member of the Organization.
The person who claimed to be Amuro-nii-san's father that day was definitely this man in disguise.
So this was his original appearance now?
No, it should still be a disguise, but unlike Amuro Harushi's previous appearance, which was made to resemble Amuro Tooru, this face definitely found its own self.
The little detective, unfamiliar with finance, also thought so.
"Thank you, Uncle Kashiwatani!" Conan Edogawa drew out his words, the sweet child smiling, which also brought a benevolent smile to Stilo's face.
What a pity, when he raised Bourbon before... Bourbon was still too old. If he were just a little older than this child in front of him, or a little younger, raising him would definitely feel a bit more fulfilling.
Speaking of which, from their interactions during this period, this boy Edogawa was also very intelligent. Although not as intelligent as Bourbon, he was still an outstanding genius.
Compared to his peers, no, even teenagers much older than him, none were as astute as this child of only seven or eight.
If he were to raise one...
Stilo's eyes showed a dangerous glint.
Conan Edogawa immediately got goosebumps.
But the little detective didn't dare to look up. He could feel whose gaze was falling on him.
He could only pretend to carefully observe the photo on Furuya Rei's phone.
Originally, he was just pretending, but a moment later, it turned into—(*???)!!
It really was Mr. Akai.
Although there were some differences, it could be completely confirmed that it was Mr. Akai himself.
Whether it was the height or that long black hair—although he saw Akai Shuichi again later with short hair, when he was Moroboshi Dai, Akai Shuichi's hair was indeed that long.
And those clear green eyes with eyeliner.
Ah... This similar, are they really the same person? He wouldn't even believe it if they said it was Mr. Akai's twin sister.
Who disguised him? It truly looks like something done to harm Mr. Akai Shuichi.
Hmm...
Conan Edogawa looked back and forth between the photo and Furuya Rei: "It's completely different from Amuro-nii-san."
Just as Inspector Megure said, apart from both being mixed-race, no similarities could be found.
Stilo heard this and suddenly laughed: "Right, Iko and Tooru-chan are completely unlike aunt and nephew."
The little detective strangely understood what the man in front of him was thinking.
"Yes, yes, before I met Amuro-nii-san and Amuro-nii-san's father, they looked very alike. One glance and you knew they were family~"
This child... truly knows how to talk.
Stilo looked at Conan Edogawa with satisfaction. The more he looked at this boy, the more he liked him.
"Uncle~" Just as Stilo stared fixedly at Conan Edogawa, staring at the little detective until the boy was at a loss, thinking he had said something wrong, even breaking into a light sweat, Furuya Rei beside him suddenly grabbed Stilo's arm.
His face was full of smiles.
Conan Edogawa was startled, feeling the surrounding atmosphere immediately become oppressive.
Amuro-nii-san's smile on his face was truly terrifying.
Stilo looked up, meeting Furuya Rei's half-shadowed face.
......
A little scary, Bourbon.
"Could it be... Uncle also thinks Conan-kun is very intelligent?" Furuya Rei smiled. He was a bit taller than this Boss vessel, Stilo, and Stilo was squatting at eye level with Conan Edogawa.
Furuya Rei bent down, his hand on Stilo's arm.
The sense of oppression was immense.
As the Boss vessel, Stilo had never felt this way before.
"Tooru-chan..." Very strange. Stilo stood up, moving out of Conan Edogawa's line of sight.
Then he suddenly burst out laughing: "You're not jealous, are you?"
Liar.
With no eyes on him, Conan Edogawa's courage grew, and he silently retorted in an instant.
He didn't expect Stilo to be so narcissistic, but Amuro-kun's expression was also very similar.
Okiya Subaru slightly raised the corner of his mouth, looking at Furuya Rei, who, after being questioned by Stilo, awkwardly turned his head away.
Good acting skills.
"Don't talk so much." Furuya Rei turned, pulled Stilo, and walked into the hall, "We're here for a banquet, aren't we? Didn't you want to greet Mr. Soui first?"
It sounded like a helpless excuse, but Stilo was still happily pulled forward by Furuya Rei.
"I didn't expect Amuro-kun... to still have such a personality." Inspector Megure looked at Furuya Rei, who rarely showed embarrassment, happily, with an expression as if watching a good play.
However, the parties involved had left. After a joke, the police officer also wanted to get to work. Kogoro Mori had been entrusted by the police and the Soui family, pulling Inspector Megure aside to mumble about the case.
The little detective looked left and right, holding onto Okiya Subaru, who was about to leave.
"Hey, Mr. Okiya, what was that photo all about?" Conan Edogawa whispered, probing.
Okiya Subaru lowered his head, his face completely expressionless as if saying, 'What are you talking about? He has no idea.'
Hey, hey, you don't need to pretend you're not Akai Shuichi now, do you?
That's not how you act!
Seeing the little detective's dissatisfied expression, although he didn't know what Amuro-kun had said to the little detective, at this critical moment, if he couldn't make the little detective stay away, he could only give the little detective some hints.
"You should also restrain yourself a bit." Okiya Subaru also looked left and right at the surrounding situation. Seeing no one paying attention to them, he continued, "Don't show off too much. Weren't you noticed by that man just now?"
"Was... was I?" Conan Edogawa was startled, recalling what he had done to attract the attention of the man named Kashiwatani Nukuta.
Okiya Subaru nodded: "If Amuro-kun hadn't helped you divert his attention, you might have trouble later."
"Please be a normal child. That guy is especially interested in intelligent children."
"I know!" Conan Edogawa replied. So that's why Amuro-nii-san was acting strange.
Having to protect him at a time like this, it must be tough, Amuro-nii-san.
Thanks from the little detective +1.
