Chapter 480 Who is the newly appointed second-in-command? It's so hard to guess.
"It's so late at night, isn't it a bit inappropriate to call everyone here... And what the hell is this speech you prepared for me?"
Outside Base 1, Shiho Miyano took a deep breath, unable to calm herself down.
She originally thought Qi Ming was just joking when he asked her to show up at the base, but she didn't expect him to actually do it.
If that's the case, then so be it.
The key point is that a draft had been prepared for her beforehand!
The content of the manuscript... was utter nonsense!
"What's wrong with me? I'm the boss. If I give the order, anyone who doesn't come to the base is disrespecting me."
Qi Ming rolled his eyes at Shiho Miyano, raised his head, and snorted softly.
Despite saying that, Vermouth did not follow, since she already knew about Shiho Miyano.
After the meal, everyone parted ways, and Vermouth had no idea where the woman had taken Ran Mouri shopping.
Shiho Miyano looked at the base gate with a slightly uneasy expression.
Therefore, she no longer has any fear of the organization or the people inside.
After all, even if everyone in the organization were combined, they wouldn't be a match for her now.
But thinking about what she was going to say later made me feel inexplicably ashamed.
"Should I change you into a classic suit and put your white coat on?"
"...No, hurry up and finish this so we can leave."
Just as the two were about to enter the gate, a voice came from inside.
"Ah, it's finally over."
As the footsteps inside drew closer, accompanied by a sigh of relief, Shiho Miyano and Qi Ming finally saw the appearance of the newcomer...
It was Kuroba Kaito, who was personally recruited by Qi Ming.
No, it was Shinichi Kudo who was shrunk by Qi Ming personally feeding him medicine.
"..."
Shinichi Kudo's highly tense heart finally relaxed after leaving the base, but when he saw the two people in front of him, his heart jumped again.
Their eyes met, and the atmosphere became somewhat awkward for a moment.
"No way, Detective, didn't you say on the airship that you were going to enjoy life? And then you ended up at our organization's base... even though our organization has a lot of entertainment options."
Qi Ming squinted at Shinichi Kudo and asked.
Even so, he had already learned from Megan on the way that Shinichi Kudo had appeared in the organization.
Gin probably didn't realize that he had inexplicably become a traitor, leading a detective to the organization's base.
Moreover, this detective still harbors feelings for the organization.
Upon hearing Qi Ming's words, Shinichi Kudo's lips twitched.
"Unexpected, unexpected. They mistook me for Kaito Kuroba. I couldn't argue with them, so I had no choice but to obediently come back with them."
Are you sure you can't go against them, and that you're not just afraid of them?
"……hey-hey."
Shinichi Kudo gave a somewhat awkward smile.
Although it was all by accident, he was quite excited to have come to the organization's base.
Even with Qi Ming present, he couldn't possibly report it to the police.
If he actually does it, he'll definitely be in deep trouble.
However, he could disguise himself as Kaito Kuroba and visit the base from time to time to look for information and see if he could find any relevant intelligence about the organization.
Of course, especially intelligence about the organization's boss!
Due to the tight schedule today, and the fact that he had been following Gin and Vodka the whole time, he couldn't really relax and had to postpone it until next time.
Strangely enough, just as he came out, quite a few people seemed to come in one after another.
Is there some kind of operation going on?
Although he really wanted to stay and watch, he was afraid that Kaito Kuroba would also come, and then his identity would be ruined.
"Then I won't bother you any longer."
Shinichi Kudo waved his hand and said.
He felt as if he had already said this once before.
It was at this moment that Shinichi Kudo noticed that the outside world was completely empty.
I don't have a car, how am I supposed to get back?
Forget it, I'll just ask Professor Agasa for help.
They all think of themselves as Kaito Kuroba now, so calling Professor Agasa over shouldn't be a problem.
Looking back now, the organization's base seems somewhat different from what I remembered.
Unlike the classic villainous base characters often seen in movies and TV series that evoke a sense of depression, this one is quite psychedelic.
"...How come there's no signal?"
Shinichi Kudo took out his phone and stared blankly at the signal strength.
I remember when he first came here, his phone clearly had a signal.
"Why are you still standing there? What, are you trying to stay and eavesdrop on our organization's secrets?"
"If I don't hit you now, you'll really think we're friends?"
Hearing Qi Ming's urging voice, Shinichi Kudo had no choice but to bow apologetically to Qi Ming and brace himself as he walked forward.
It's probably just a temporary signal problem; maybe if we walk a little further, we'll be able to make calls.
For a moment, Shinichi Kudo forgot to think that Qi Ming was responsible for the phone malfunction.
It wasn't until he walked several kilometers into the bustling city center that he realized he had been tricked.
He even said he'd take Xiaolan out for dinner, what a joke!
……
The base's conference room.
The team members had gotten used to their boss frequently summoning all members together.
However, they didn't harbor any resentment.
After all, we have more free time now, we earn more money, and we don't even need to think about anything when we're working, we can just go for it.
Tread-
Just as everyone was wondering why Qi Ming had gathered them together this time, speculating whether he was planning something big again that night.
Footsteps sounded, and the sounds of conversation faded away.
Once Qi Ming was standing on the podium, he coughed twice and got straight to the point, addressing the audience.
"I called everyone here today mainly to announce something."
"As you all know, Rum has left us, so the highest-ranking member of our organization now is only Gin."
"Therefore, I have decided to promote someone to be the second-in-command of our organization."
All eyes turned to Gin, their expressions strange.
In the past, Gin's position seemed to be useful; he could use a chicken feather as a token.
But now it probably doesn't matter whether you're a cadre or not, right?
There's no need to purge the traitors anymore; the organization's operations have become quite vertical again, so it seems like it doesn't matter whether there's a management team or not.
Seeing the expressions on the faces of the people below the stage, Qi Ming could vaguely guess what they were thinking.
That seems to make sense. There doesn't seem to be much difference between members and elites. Perhaps the organization's hierarchy should be further subdivided.
For example, there are rules like "you can only exchange for certain items after you reach a certain level".
Forget it, I'm too lazy to think about it. I'll just leave these things to the second-in-command.
"The classification of ranks will be reformed soon, so please don't take it lightly."
Upon hearing Qi Ming's words, everyone's expressions calmed down again, and they all began to speculate about who this second-in-command was.
"Big brother..."
Vodka whispered in Gin's ear, and everyone else turned to look at Gin again.
Perhaps there's no need to guess; among everyone present, Gin is the most qualified.
