Chapter 1293 Walls Have Ears, Shut Up

Conan used the excuse to help Sister Xiaolan buy things after school and did not go with everyone in the Junior Detective Team.

The children were convinced, only Asano Haihara Ai looked at him deeply.

Just when Conan was about to find an excuse to deal with it, Haihara Ai suddenly looked away and was no longer interested.

Conan breathed a sigh of relief and secretly boarded the train. His destination was the TENSE Building in the busiest district of Tokyo.

Now he is standing in front of the gate of TENSE Building. The magnificent architecture, exquisite and advanced decoration, as well as the well-dressed employees coming in and out of suits and ties all reflect the high-end quality of this place.

It is unimaginable that TENSE would be associated with that organization. But whether he believes it or not, what happened at the press conference proves it.

After the incident, Conan learned from Officer Megure that the producer's death was ultimately due to a heart attack, but the medical examiner was skeptical and could not accurately determine the cause of death. This is strange and very similar to some cases that have happened before.

Conan almost immediately thought of APTX-4869. Sure enough, the producer was killed by the organization!

Now he is determined to investigate clearly TENSE's connection with the organization and the reason why they killed the producer.

Conan relied on his small stature to easily sneak into the strictly managed TENSE building.

"Hey, little brother, don't run around!"

Well, before he could start to feel proud, a staff member at the front desk caught him and said, "Whose child is this? The company does not allow family members to be brought to work."

The commotion here quickly attracted the attention of the security team, who was patrolling and came over immediately.

Conan felt an extremely unfriendly gaze cast on him. He followed the gaze and saw a burly and fierce man standing in front of him.

The man was wearing the uniform black uniform of the security team, with a baton on his waist. Conan also found a pistol strapped to his leg.

"It's a kid." The man reported over the intercom, "I'm going to kick him out now."

After saying that, he stretched out his hand to grab Conan's collar.

The young lady at the front desk seemed to be afraid of the security team. When she saw him reaching out, she immediately handed over Conan.

The man didn't know how to pity children at all, so he grabbed Conan and threw him outside the building.

This is not possible! The purpose of his coming here today has not been achieved yet!

"Ah ah ah, help!" Conan shouted loudly, his body dangling like a loach.

The man in the security team was so noisy that he had a headache. He raised his hand and planned to knock Conan unconscious.

Just then Conan said loudly: "I'm here to find someone, I made an appointment with Brother Asano!!"

The man's knife stopped less than ten centimeters away from Conan.

He frowned and asked, "Are you here to see the president?"

Conan nodded with lingering fear.

How come he almost forgot Mr. Asano's current identity? Since he is the top leader of the TENSE Group in the Asia-Pacific region, with his permission, he should be able to easily sneak into the TENSE investigation.

The man cast his accusing gaze at the young lady at the front desk, as if blaming her for not understanding the situation.

The young lady quickly said: "All the president's meetings must be verified with the secretariat. I will call right away."

"Hey, wait..." Conan tried to stop him.

After all, he knew very well that he had no appointment with Mr. Asano at all. If the Secretariat directly denied that he had an appointment with Asano Nobushige, he might lose the opportunity to enter the building.

No, we must find a way to contact Mr. Asano!

Conan suddenly ran to the front desk and grabbed the microphone from the little sister's hand.

"Hey, little brother, you..."

The call was connected, and Conan said directly to the person: "I am Conan Edogawa, and I want to see Brother Asano."

There was silence for a second: "Mr. Edogawa, do you have an appointment?"

Conan never expected that one day he would have to make an appointment if he wanted to see Mr. Asano, so he had to say: "No, but Asano-san would definitely meet him as long as he knew it was me."

"Sorry, if you don't have an appointment..."

"Please tell Mr. Nobushige Asano that his sister is here." A voice suddenly rang in Conan's ears and into the microphone at the same time.

Conan was surprised.

Asano Haihara Ai, why is she here too?

This time, the person on the other side of the phone did not make excuses by making an appointment. Instead, he asked solemnly: "Are you Ms. Asano Haibara Ai?"

"Yes." Hui Yuan Ai admitted calmly.

"You need to take a special elevator to get to the president's office. I'll come down to pick you up. Please wait." The secretary's attitude has almost changed dramatically.

Conan was speechless: "I thought Mr. Asano didn't recognize you as my sister."

Haihara Ai returned the phone to the front desk and said in a calm tone: "If you hadn't barged in so rashly, I wouldn't have gone to TENSE Group to look for my brother."

It is true that she is sensible and does not want to cause trouble to her brother, but if she has the opportunity to meet Nobushige, she will still do so. Just like now, when Edogawa Conan broke into TENSE rashly, she not only did not stop him, but followed him all the way.

They didn't wait long at the front desk when a professional woman in a suit walked over to them.

The man simply ignored Conan and knelt down in front of Haibara Ai: "Little sister, are you Ms. Asano Haibara Ai? Please follow me."

"I……"

Before Conan could speak, Haihara Ai pointed at him and said, "This is my classmate, can you come up too?"

"Of course." The female secretary smiled gently. She stood up and glanced at the security guard next to her. The ferocious-looking man quietly left.

Conan and Haihara Ai followed the female secretary and turned left and right, entering a spacious elevator. This elevator is in a different room than the others and is more ornately decorated.

After the secretary swiped his card, he pressed the 79th floor of the elevator.

"Is my brother in the company?" Hui Yuan Ai asked.

"The president is free now, but he has a video conference with the headquarters in the evening, so he doesn't have much time left for you."

"Brother Asano is so busy now?"

"After all, the president has to manage such a large company, so it's normal for him to be busy."

The elevator stopped at the 79th floor. The secretary reached out and held the door, asking Haihara Ai and Conan to go first.

Even though Conan had seen many big scenes, he was still shocked after seeing such an elegant and gorgeous office.

It's terrible. Is this the strength of a consortium that is richer than the Suzuki family?

Nobushige had just finished a work call, and the door to his office was open, so he quickly saw Conan and Haibara Ai.

He was not surprised to see Conan at all, but the arrival of Haihara Ai surprised him.

"You go out first." Nobushige said to the secretary.

The secretary placed the juice and candies on the table and then left respectfully.

"Mr. Asano." Conan planned to ask straight to the point, "Group..."

A note was placed on Conan's mouth, successfully blocking his unspoken words.

Conan tore it off and looked at it. It said: [Walls have ears, shut up]

Conan: "..."

Well, it seems he can't ask anything today.

"Brother Asano, have you changed your contact information?" Conan used a different method to make insinuations.

"No." Xinfan replied calmly.

"Then why can't we contact you?"

"I'm too busy at work now to answer unimportant calls."

Conan: "..."

Do walls really have ears? Wasn't Mr. Asano too lazy to see him?

Seeing Conan hit a wall, Haiyuan Ai laughed out loud in shame, and then asked: "Brother, what if I come to you for something?"

"Yeah, it's not me that's mainly looking for you." Considering that the walls have ears, Conan picked himself out. "Our school sometimes holds activities such as parent open days. As Asano's only relative, if you don't go , the teacher will deduct points from her final grade."

Of course, these words were nonsense. Conan just wanted to find an excuse to have a good chat with Asano Nobushige in an environment where no one else would eavesdrop.

"I didn't stop Xiao Ai from coming to me." Xinfan glanced at Conan coolly, "Did the front desk stop you?"

Conan choked.

Of course the front desk stopped him, but it wasn't Haibara Ai who stopped him, but him, the unwelcome visitor.

"Then do you really not care about the detective agency? After losing you as an agent, Mr. Mori has made a mess of the agency."

Nobushige laughed: "No, I know Mr. Mori, he can handle his work well. Besides, Miss Xiaolan will also help him."

Miss Xiaolan...

It's been a long time since Conan heard this title from Asano Nobushige. It seemed that it was because he was jealous at first.

"Mr. Mori, are they all okay?" Nobushige suddenly asked.

"You said it yourself just now, he can handle it..."

"Everything is fine." Haiyuan Ai knew what his brother really wanted to ask, so he spoke one by one like a treasure trove, "Uncle Maori helped the Metropolitan Police solve another case, and Sister Xiaolan also won the championship in karate. Xiaozi My sister has found a new job. It is said that she is working as a waiter in a cafe. Brother Amuro is very busy at work, but he comes to see us occasionally. The doctor is too old and has a bad memory, and he always likes to invent some weird things. Something. Dr. Aso just gave a physical examination to the Junior Detective Team. Officer Kanagawa Yokomori visited Uncle Mori when he came to Japan for a meeting. I heard that they have a very beautiful sister there. The three police officers in Nagano Prefecture remain excellent The detection rate of the case is very high, and the help of detectives is basically not needed. The villa of Yuanzi’s sister’s house is on fire again..."

She really explained everyone's situation, and for a while the only sound in the office was her nagging voice.

Conan wanted to complain that Haibara Ai had turned into a verbose old woman at a young age, but when he saw Asano Nobushige's expression, he swallowed all these words.

Mr. Asano's expression seemed a little melancholy. He looked at Haibara Ai, but it seemed like there was nothingness ahead. And he was trapped in a black vortex, looking at the entire void alone, and no one could pull him out.

Since you care about everyone so much, why can't you come back and see us?

Is it the moment of decisive battle between the organization and the righteous side?

After several minutes, Huihara Ai finally stopped: "Anyway, everyone is fine. Brother, you should always stay positive and don't think too much."

"Of course." Xinfan laughed, "You have seen me, everything is fine with me, right?"

Hearing that Jiang Guling was safe and sound, his empty heart finally settled.

Adhering to the style of burning bridges across rivers, Nobuhiro began to issue eviction orders: "It's getting late, you have to go to class tomorrow, go back and do your homework quickly."

Most employees of TENSE Group do not know the organization or even its existence, but some members of the organization are still embedded in it. Rum had expressed interest in Haibara Ai last time, and Nobuhiro wasn't sure if anyone would notice Xiao Ai because of what happened today.

He had to let Conan protect Xiao Ai personally, and at least send Xiao Ai back to Dr. A Li's house. As long as she returns to the doctor's house, the police lurking around will provide her with shelter.

So Nobuhiro asked Conan: "It's not safe for a little girl to go home at night, Xiao Ai. Please send her back along the way."

Conan corrected: "It's not the way to go."

"By the way." Nobushige handed Haibara Ai to Conan without any explanation.

"..."

Conan understood that Mr. Asano had no intention of asking for his opinion from the beginning. Is it because of this reason that the secretary allowed him to come up with him?

Before leaving, Conan couldn't help but ask: "Brother Asano, did you really voluntarily close the music classroom and jump to TENSE?"

Nobuhiro was slightly surprised: "It can't be considered a job change, because I have been an employee of TENSE Group from the beginning."

He twitched his lips towards Conan and showed a smile.

Sure enough, TENSE is an organized industry. But aren't they a criminal group? Why are they coming to the forefront now?

With unsolved doubts, Conan and Haihara Ai walked down the elevator.

They were guided by a secretary when they came, and when they returned, perhaps because they had obtained permission, they did not encounter any resistance.

As the elevator was about to reach the first floor, Conan suddenly had an idea.

"What are you doing?" Hui Yuarai asked coldly.

Conan tried pressing the button on the second floor and succeeded: "It's hard to come to TENSE. Don't you want to see what secrets this company has?"

"It will bring trouble to my brother." Huihara Ai emphasized.

"I checked. The surveillance in the elevator can only capture the scene in the car. Due to the angle limit, the buttons and the situation at the door cannot be seen." Conan analyzed calmly, "People in the control room can only see When we get off the elevator, they won't know which floor it is. Even if we calculate the time, there is almost no difference between the second floor and the first floor."

"What if there is surveillance outside?"

"It depends."

At this point, the elevator just arrived at the second floor and the door opened.

Outside is a large and orderly office, with people working in every cubicle.

Conan quickly looked around the surrounding environment and said firmly: "There is only a surveillance camera in the corner. We can pass through the blind spot on the left. Hurry!!"

Haibara Ai knew that any further hesitation at this time would only increase the risk of Conan being discovered, so she had no choice but to follow his footsteps and get off the elevator.

This company is different from all the companies Conan has visited before. Their management is too strict. There is no smile on every employee's face. They seem to be always busy.
