Chapter 48 - Trust (2)

Furuya Rei asked, his voice slightly tense, "You believe what I said?"

Why?

Wouldn't most people think he was just making excuses when they heard him say that?

Moreover, even if they believed him, they would immediately press him for his reasons, right?

If he chose not to answer, they would assume his concealment was malicious. Just like… Kazami and his subordinates always found him terrifying. And the people in the organization didn't need to be said as they always view Bourbon in a negative light. 

Only Hiromitsu, Matsuda, Hagiwara, and the squad leader trusted him without a doubt or question.

But it was because they trusted each other for a long time.

And the confusion within Amamiya Yuki that she quickly covered up…

What is she actually thinking?

Amamiya Yuki looked at Furuya Rei in front of her and then smiled. It's dangerous to be so close to Furuya Rei and she knew that he's suspicious of her, especially because he suspected her to be a member of the organization. 

But…

Even if she's a member of the organization and Amamiya Yuki did want Bourbon to know later, but right now, she didn't feel any malice from Furuya Rei. 

And as an adult whose life experience was… rather ordinary but had experienced enough outside, Amamiya Yuki knew that the absence of malice was already the best result.

There were too many people who were evil in this world.

Especially in Conan's world where criminals were rampant and their reason for doing crimes can be very absurd. 

So much that Amamiya often wonders whether the prison will be full with so many people being captured each day.

Eh, probably the prison has been expanded.

She didn't know for sure.

Even though Furuya Rei did use deception and lies to obtain his goal, he's now being more honest. 

Well… he might do it to test her too.

But Amamiya Yuki didn't want to think too much. 

Amuro Toru was still treating someone he suspected well. Perhaps before he obtained the evidence, he will continue to remain this way.

He's really a good policeman.

"I don't sense any malice, Mr. Amuro. And it's enough." Amamiya Yuki smiled. "I can see that you really want to learn, so shall we continue?"

Amamiya Yuki's smile was gentle and tolerant, as if she was giving a special treatment for Furuya Rei.

However, this unreserved, extremely frank, and tolerant attitude towards people and things slowly relaxed Furuya Rei's slightly tense heart.

He still has suspicions for Amamiya Yuki.

But he had to admit that she truly taught him well.

Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to make these masks in the first place.

"Thank you for your understanding, Ms. Amamiya." Amuro Toru gave a warm smile and there's a hint of gratitude in his voice. "How about if we eat first? I'll treat you and this restaurant is known for its delicious food."

Delicious food?

Amamiya Yuki's eyes lit up and then she smiled brightly.

"Okay!"

Seeing Amamiya Yuki cheered up like a child, Amuro Toru lowered his eyes slightly. If Amamiya Yuki is really Sake, then he will treat her gentler when he catches her in the future as repayment for this teaching.

[Ahhh, Yuki is too gentle!]

[I won, give me the snacks!]

[Tsk, Yuki, don't be fooled by this man's sweet talk and handsome face. He still wants to catch you, you know!]

[When Yuki is confirmed black, Amuro Toru will definitely become Bourbon and treat her harshly.]

[AHH, poor Yuki]

[Nooo, I don't want Yuki to be black!]

[Yuki will definitely be black!]

[No, she has to be red!]

[Yuki treats Toru so gently ah, I'm jealous now]

[Pfft, seeing what Amuro Toru is thinking, he just want to catch Amamiya Yuki if she's confirmed to be a member of the Black Organization]

[Ei, it couldn't be helped. He's a public security officer.]

[True]

[So… prison play?]

[Pfft upstairs, your mind is dirty!]

Amamiya Yuki ignored the rest of the barrage or it might have ended up as restricted content. 

As for Furuya Rei wanting to catch her.

Pfft.

She didn't mind.

It's his righteous nature that made him more attractive. Even though he still broke the laws because of his mission as an undercover agent, he's also very gentle and righteous.

Aikawa Saki had long known about this.

Even before entering this game.

So she was not surprised when she saw the barrage and instead felt that it was natural.

Even if she's a real criminal, she had no intention of using this matter to get any preferential treatment. Not to mention, she herself is also an undercover agent.

So she understood his mindset.

After all, even if a criminal were to show her some favor… she will still handcuff them. :)

Though, daily catching criminals is not her job.

In any case, the food was served and Amamiya Yuki enjoyed it. She also added a small cake as dessert, which she likes very much.

It's just that she needed more exercise later. QAQ

Her sweet intake has exceeded the usual limit she sets.

After eating, Amamiya Yuki started her disguise class and this time, she started from the very basics. Thankfully, Furuya Rei still had the foundation from their police academy back then. Otherwise, Amamiya Yuki will feel at loss.

And Furuya Rei is definitely a fast learner.

She noticed the barrage had already changed to other locations and knew that Conan encountered another case and Lucas was still trailing him.

Amamiya Yuki: "..." As expected of Conan.

Once the lesson ended, the two of them chatted and Amamiya Yuki ordered another juice. It's delicious and sweet hehe.

Anyway, it was rare for her to be paid by others.

It was not like Amamiya Yuki is not rich, but most of the money is from the organization for Sake. She herself had the salary from the public security but the account was temporarily unusable.

After all, it was under her real name….

"The disguise of Kaito Kid is indeed similar." Amamiya Yuki blinked her eyes. "At least, that's what I have heard since I haven't seen him face to face."

"Do you think you can recognize him if he appeared in front of you, Ms. Amamiya?" Amuro Toru asked in a joking tone.

"Hmm… I don't know." Amamiya Yuki felt distressed and then thought of something. "Maybe I can try to find him to discuss disguise in the future?"

She definitely wouldn't go and look for Vermouth.

But if it's Kaito Kid… 

Hmm, it's feasible.

And she could also rub the camera from his side. After all, Kaito Kid is also a protagonist in a sense and he's quite popular.

In her opinion, he's just a pretentious kid, though.

*cough*

Better not let his fans hear her thoughts.

Amamiya Yuki sipped her drink and then asked, "When will he appear?"

Furuya Rei tilted his head and thought for a moment, then said, "Judging from his pattern of actions, it shouldn't be far off. Don't worry, I'll send you a message about his destination after he sends out the notice."

"Okay." Amamiya Yuki agreed directly.

And then she remembered that Kaito Kid always appeared with riddles…

Ugh, she was not good at guessing those things.

"I'll probably need your help to decipher the code too." Amamiya Yuki sighed.

Furuya Rei chuckled and then said, "Don't worry, I'll help you."

"Then that's a deal." Amamiya Yuki laughed happily.
