Seeing Megumi Aiko looked troubled, Sato Miwako hugged the other party and patted her back. "It's ok, everything is fine."
Megumi Aiko had an ugly smile on her face.
She really didn't know what to say.
Conan frowned, but if Megumi Aiko really didn't want to say, it was basically impossible for him to figure it out.
How about heading to the police academy?
Not mentioning that ordinary children wouldn't be able to enter, he also guessed that it was for Megumi Aiko's protection that the case was not announced. Just looking at how the man thought Megumi Aiko had died…
Well, he still wanted to find out the truth!
…
[High School Student [2]: If you can't tell them, can you tell us, No. 4? How do you know the Clown?
Internationally Wanted Criminal [3]: Huh? Isn't that the other name that was mentioned from the comments?
Megumi Aiko [4]: It's not like I don't want to tell you… but I don't know what happened. You all know that our experience in this world is nothing more than a system log and those are what happened before I started the game!
High School Student [2]: So you don't know how you're kidnapped or why?
Internationally Wanted Criminal [3]: …In a way, it's good that you don't remember. I think you will be traumatized if you had to remember, No. 4.
University Student [6]: (hug.jpg)
Megumi Aiko [4]: Well, it's said that my friends and I accidentally got involved in their cases. Later on, we bumped on them again and they tried to kill us, but one of my other classmates saved me. The problem is, their names are not written and I don't even know who it is…
Doesn't your system log also have a lot of gaps and missing parts?
High School Student [2]: I see… and yes, there are a lot of gaps here, but I have filled some of them through investigation.
Internationally Wanted Criminal [3]: …Forget it, I don't want to explore a criminal's past.
University Student [6]: Same with no. 3, but I'm not a criminal. Just a lazy student.
Public Security Officer [5]: This case is locked by the public security and your names are erased, Megumi. But this case is also in my logs because of my involvement and I can tell you that it's for the best that you don't remember for the time being.
If Clown knows that you still remember the case, he will definitely target you and at that time, you might have to experience a life like Conan where you have to change your appearance and live under a false name.
Megumi Aiko [4]: But what if they found me…
Public Security Officer [5]: That's when the case will be restarted, but there are reasons why they didn't dare to come to Japan. It has been peaceful in the past few years and if they start to target you, I'll immediately send someone to protect you. Also, it's not that they didn't know you're still alive, but they're aiming for your classmate more than you, so they didn't pay attention to you, no. 4. As long as you don't show that you remember that case, they wouldn't come to you.
Megumi Aiko [4]: I feel somewhat relieved now. Thank you, no. 5!
Public Security Officer [5]: It's nothing much.
ICPO Undercover Agent in Winery[1]: The case is not over yet. The Snake has seen Conan and they will definitely investigate. If they confirm that he's related to Kudo Yusaku, that brat will be in even more danger.
Megumi Aiko [4]: …What?
High School Student [2]: How?
Internationally Wanted Criminal [3]: Why?
University Student [6]: Damn it! We shouldn't have dragged Conan over.
ICPO Undercover Agent in Winery[1]: I'm sorry… I forgot that the Snake has been targeting Kudo Yusaku for a long time. He was involved in a case related to them when I was still in the police academy, so it's recorded in my log. Kudo Yusaku is now in Japan because of Akai Shuichi's matter and I guessed that Snake is also here.
No. 5, I'll trouble you to inform him about the possibility of someone tracking him down and this organization. I think you should remember why they target him.
Public Security Officer [5]: Indeed, but how did they… forget it, Kudo Yusaku was not exactly good at hiding his traces except from hiding from the editor. But their timing is really not good…
Undercover Agent from Metropolitan Public Security [7]: Uh, are we going to be involved in their case?
Corrupted FBI [8]: It's an international case and I can step in if necessary.
Megumi Aiko [4]: Get out of here, FBI!
Corrupted FBI [8]: When did you hate the FBI so much?
Megumi Aiko [4]: Don't interfere with our cases….]
…
Kurokawa Saki saw their chat groups as she left the building.
The one who shot was naturally her and she shook her head in amusement when she watched their lively chat groups.
To be honest, it was good that Megumi Aiko was not afraid.
'But why did they have to come here again after all this time?'
Kurokawa Saki was thinking while she entered the car and drove away. Her driving skill was average and she didn't have much interest in raising the skills too high.
After all, there were not many car chases that she had back then.
Having it high enough to be able to speed up and drift was enough. She didn't need to be like those racers who could turn their car into gundam or something.
Kurokawa Saki tapped the steering wheel as she made her way back to her apartment.
'Huh, come to think about it…'
She took out her laptop after she came back and started to find out some news about Kudo Yusaku. It didn't take long for her to find his airplane ticket back to Japan three days ago.
Moreover, there was also news about him solving cases in the US during his vacation.
Browsing the news report, Kurokawa Saki finally found what she was looking for. A case that Kudo Yusaku solved and the culprit was not found on the spot. But it was indeed this case again.
The corner of her lips twitched.
She had the feeling that Kudo Yusaku would definitely be targeted once again.
He had been targeted by the Snake once.
'Forget it, I'll see how it is tomorrow.'
Thinking about the people from that organization, Kurokawa Saki felt a faint headache. She knew that they were not that easy to deal with.
As for Megumi Aiko…
The Clown had long known that she was still alive. Given by how frequently she entered the newspaper as the violent policewoman, it was basically impossible for them not to notice. But they didn't plan to target her because she didn't do much in that case.
In fact, her only threat was because she was strong physically.
If there was anyone whom they targeted more, it would be her…
Yes, Kurokawa Saki is Megumi Aiko's classmate.
And the Snake didn't know her real relationship with Megumi Aiko because of some reasons. Besides, she was transferred on a secondment not long after she started working, so there was no chance to contact Megumi Aiko anymore.
She didn't know how the system made the arrangement in the first place, but she had the faint feeling that some of them would have connections with each other.
For example, no. 7 and no. 9 were lovers.
No. 7 is no. 5 subordinate.
And there might be others.
As for herself, Kurokawa Saki is Megumi Aiko's classmate along with three others and some things happened during their time at the police academy. There were three girls and two boys, all of whom were also troublemakers.
*cough*
In any case, Kurokawa Saki knew about this case.
But she could be said to be luckier than the others because she never appeared in person, so her record was completely erased. That organization only knew that there was a powerful sniper targeting them, but they didn't know where she came from.
By the time they figured out that she was Megumi Aiko's classmate, her record had long been sealed off and no one remembered her.
Because she was not as eye catching as the others.
