cooperate?

Judy's eyes widened slightly, feeling incredible about Qin Zhibo's proposal.

Even Shuichi Akai and James tried to persuade him to return to the FBI before, but they were rejected. Why did he suddenly talk about cooperation with him?

Qin Zhibo held the steering wheel, looked forward, and explained calmly: "Don't get me wrong, the 'cooperation' I said is not about returning to the FBI, it is just about helping you catch that fake 'new doctor'."

"After all, my life is very peaceful now and I don't want to get involved in anything too dangerous..."

In fact, if possible, Qin Zhibo does not want to have too much involvement with the FBI.

But Belmode has completely recognized Haibara Ai's identity today, and he believes that he will take action soon.

In order to protect Haiyuan Ai's safety, relying on the power of the FBI is currently the safest way.

Judy lowered her head slightly and thought for a while before replying: "Sorry, I can't make the decision on this matter. I have to ask James..."

Qin Zhibo nodded in understanding. After all, James was the head of all FBI in this operation.

...

Soon, Qin Zhibo drove the car downstairs to the high-end apartment where Judy rented.

After watching Judy leave, Qin Zhibo drove back to Dr. Ali's house and put the [Guard Totem] in the prop column.

In order to master first-hand information, you should also put in some "high technology" appropriately.

So far, Dr. Ali already has monitoring and surveillance equipment from Belmode, the FBI, and Qin Zhibo in his home.

Dr. A Li probably never dreamed that a live broadcast would be held at home.

...

Not long after returning to the office, Shuichi Akai called.

When he came to the office to discuss with Qin Zhibo about returning to the FBI, he memorized the contact number on the office window.

Akai Shuichi's answer was that cooperation was possible, but Qin Zhibo could not directly participate in the FBI's operations as an operator, but could only serve as an FBI informant behind the scenes.

The reason is that the FBI's mission this time is very dangerous. Without legal infiltration procedures, you may face arrest by the Japanese police and risk your life at any time.

If you are not confirmed to return to the FBI and become an FBI investigator, it means that you are not qualified to bear this risk, and naturally you cannot directly participate in FBI operations.

Qin Zhibo agreed with Akai Shuichi's answer, and that's what he actually thought.

He would definitely not do anything like officially join the FBI. The most important thing is to use the FBI to get through the current crisis.

"So when are you going to take action?"

"Recently..."

Akai Shuichi's answer was very general. It seems that this person is very principled and would not disclose information unless he joins the FBI.

"That's it for now, I'll let you know when something happens."

After saying that, Akai Shuichi hung up the phone.

Qin Zhibo still felt a little uneasy after putting down the phone.

The FBI doesn't seem to have any plans to take the initiative. Otherwise, if he had been lurking in Tokyo for so long, he would have caught Belmode long ago.

It seems that the only thing left to do is to take one step at a time.

Qin Zhibo turned around and looked at the time on the wall. It was 3:00 pm, and it was time to relax.

Taking out the [Glass Bottle] from the toolbar, Qin Zhibo poured out the only colored bead inside with a thought.

The colorful beads transformed into the image of a short-haired girl, hanging in the air with a big waist stretched out.

"Beautiful girl - Minase Harumu appears!"

Minase Yangmeng put on a pose full of energy, but looking around, there was no one else except Qin Zhibo.

"Why are you alone today, uncle?"

"Of course, what do you think?"

I had previously agreed with Minase Youmeng to let the wind play for an hour every day, and Youmeng also made a special request to call her out when something interesting happened, just like the last circus performance.

But for Qin Zhibo, how can he encounter what she calls "interesting" things every day, so he basically just shows off in the office.

"It's so boring~ Uncle, let's turn on the TV and watch..."

Minase Yomu in the soul state cannot affect any objects in the real world, and even small things like turning on the TV require Qin Zhibo's help.

However, Qin Zhibo also got some inspiration from "The Secret of the Worm: Ghost Chapter". Although the power of the ghost body is weak, it can possess some specific things and do simple things by controlling these things.

In order to develop Minase Youmeng's abilities in this area, Qin Zhibo bought a small teddy bear.

"Don't rush to watch TV yet, let's see what I bought you?"

Qin Zhibo placed the teddy bear on his desk, which immediately attracted the girl's attention.

"What a cute little bear!"

Minase Youmeng went up to hug the teddy bear, but the moment he touched it, his palm went right through it, just like touching an ordinary object.

The same goes for the white lion pendant that Qin Zhibo bought for her last time. Because she couldn't control it, Qin Zhibo had to carry it himself.

"Try to see if you can get into the teddy bear's body. Maybe you can control it to do something."

Minase Youmeng glanced at the teddy bear, followed the gestures, and found that it was less than half the size of his own arm. He immediately stamped his feet in anger.

"You can't get in! You can't get in no matter how big it is!"

"Is it a matter of size? I thought ghosts didn't need to calculate their size..."

"What are you talking about? Ghosts also have dignity, okay?"

Qin Zhibo looked around, and there was no object that could perfectly accommodate Minase Harumo, unless...

Qin Zhibo took out the [Bait Doll] from the props bar, and another "Qin Zhibo" suddenly appeared, surprising Minase Yomu.

"Why is it an uncle again?!"

Qin Zhibo explained seriously, "This is a dummy I made to prevent my enemies from plotting. You can try and see if you can get in."

Minase Yomeng didn't ask too much, and tentatively put his hand into "Qin Zhibo"'s body, then his shoulders, head, butt, and legs.

Until her whole body disappeared into "Qin Zhibo"'s body, a brand new "human being" was born.

"It's amazing! It's like I'm controlling my own body!"

"Qin Zhibo", under the control of Minase Youmeng, opened his eyes in disbelief and observed the body of the doll.

Even Qin Zhibo himself was impressed by the omnipotent bait doll. This thing can really control everything.

"You can try some movements, walking, running..."

Under Qin Zhibo's command, Minase Yomeng controlled another "Qin Zhibo" to perform various actions in the room.

Run, jump, reach out, punch...

Basically, it can be done as long as the movements allowed by the human limbs are possible, even the cross-crossing that Qin Zhibo himself cannot do. The two are very consistent.

Although the [Stand-in Messenger] could also control the decoy puppet before, the disadvantage was that the Stand-in User could not leave the ten-meter radius around Qin Zhibo, so the decoy puppet had to move within Qin Zhibo's sight.

In addition, the stand-in user relies on the skill of art and craftsmanship (puppet) to operate, and the accuracy of the operation needs to be improved.

But Minase Youmeng is a soul with independent thoughts. As long as Qin Zhibo's magic power is enough, she can support her to move freely.

It seems that I can open a trumpet remotely in the future...

Qin Zhibo was thinking about how to use this ability, and Minase Yomeng beside him had already begun to explore the male body.

"What's that raised thing down here?"

"Don't touch that! That's... the zipper of the doll. If you pull it open, the stuffing inside will fall out!"

"What!"

Being frightened by Qin Zhibo, Minase Youmeng quickly retracted her hand. If she broke the doll, she would not be able to play with it in the future.

Qin Zhibo rubbed his forehead with a headache. Although he found a suitable Gundam pilot, he felt that the pilot's brain was not working well.

Forget it, just make do with it.

...

The next day, Qin Zhibo used [Guard Totem] to observe the situation at Dr. A Li's house.

Aso Minoru went to Dr. Ari's house early in the morning and brought him preserved egg and lean meat porridge.

What surprised Qin Zhibo was that Conan seemed to have arrived earlier.

After a night's rest, Haiyuan Ai's condition improved, she also regained some appetite and drank a lot of porridge.

After Narumi left, Dr. Agasa and Conan began to discuss, planning to wait for Haibara Ai to get better and then go find Dr. Miyano's friends.

Qin Zhibo remembered that Haiyuan Ai's real name was Miyano, and this Dr. Miyano should be Haiyuan Ai's father.

"Dr. Miyano has a friend who he grew up with and is now a designer. I heard that Dr. Miyano once asked this friend to publish a book at his own expense, so he asked his friend to help bind it."

"Although the book did not sell well, the binding was novel and several doctors spoke highly of it."
