After that mission, Kurokawa Saki returned to her safe house and found Scotland was already back.
"You're back so early?" Kurokawa Saki was surprised to see Scotland there.
"Well, I figured you have something to do before coming back, so I went back and prepared dinner first." Scotland knew that Kurokawa Saki had to talk with her contact before coming back, so he chose to come back directly and prepare their dinner first.
"Hmm." Kurokawa Saki nodded and entered the house. "We have reached a cooperation agreement with the National Police Agency. At least, during my time in Japan, I'll have their support."
Scotland thought about Kurokawa Saki's performance and his lips twitched. "I thought that they'll be overwhelmed by the fact that these people never actually agree to fake their death."
"It doesn't matter. Those who know them will never be able to see them and if they try to approach them, they'll lose their consciousness directly," Kurokawa Saki replied.
Her skills had been adjusted and Kurokawa Saki saw that she could arrange for these people to not be seen by the people they knew. If they try to talk with them, they will fall unconscious and fail.
In this way, they would have no other choice but to accept the witness protection plan.
Well, a bit cruel to be honest.
But considering most of them were criminals, they'll probably just spend their time in detention or jail for years. By the time they had come out, the game should be over.
Kurokawa Saki's mind roamed for a moment and then she sighed.
She had no idea how long the main story would be later when Conan came. But she could guess that it would be quite long considering he did encounter a lot of cases everyday.
"Aside from that politician… The rest of the people are all gang members who will have to stay in prison for years. When they come out, I believe the winery would have been defeated." Kurokawa Saki shrugged.
Scotland chuckled. "You have great confidence."
Kurokawa Saki scrunched her face. "I don't want to be Hikari Yuki for the rest of my life… if possible, I really want to go back and return to my ordinary life."
Unfortunately, there were still at least 3 years before the main storyline started.
And then… Kurokawa Saki didn't know how long it would take for Conan to return to being Kudo Shinichi.
"Yes. I believe you can do it." Scotland smiled and put the plates of food on the table.
He knew the entrance of Kurokawa Saki to the Winery was a bit bizarre. If she hadn't been spotted by Gin, she would have been back to her work and didn't have to participate in this mess.
Well, it's all Gin's fault.
"Pasta!" Kurokawa Saki's eyes lit up and she happily ate the food.
Seeing the other party eating heartily, Scotland laughed lightly and sat in front of her. Even though his life and death is basically in Kurokawa Saki's hand, Scotland never felt overwhelmed or anything like that.
Instead, he felt comfortable when interacting with the other party.
Perhaps this was because Kurokawa Saki had never thought about forcing him to do anything and only asked for help in terms of gathering additional information or knocking people out from time to time.
For a moment, he felt as if he was simply back to his old profession.
It was just that his superior was temporarily changed to Kurokawa Saki.
Moreover, he was also teaching some basic stuffs to Kurokawa Saki in the beginning, helping her to integrate into the work as an undercover agent much faster.
"Delicious~."
Scotland: "..." seeing the way Kurokawa Saki ate, he had the feeling that he's raising a little daughter instead of facing a superior.
"Morofushi Hiromitsu," Scotland or Morofushi Hiromitsu suddenly spoke out.
Kurokawa Saki froze for a moment and she looked at Morofushi Hiromitsu in front of her in surprise.
"Scotland had died on that rooftop, so from now, you just have to call me by my own name," Morofushi Hiromitsu explained.
