(Sighs) "I guess you got me, as for the unaging part Pandora was found by me and made me basically immortal in regards to ageing and most wounds, shoot me in the heart, the head or decapitate me and I will die, any other shot that would normally be fatal is no longer fatal, I was sent back to a couple years before my original debut after finding out about dad and how he actually died"

"Why and how were you sent back?"

"To keep my younger self from becoming immortal, as for how, well during a stage performance there was an accident and I was severely burned, I couldn't tell anyone that I would heal within weeks instead of months or years with no scarring but that wasn't the main issue, the main issue is that while I was sedated for surgery someone asked me if I wanted to go back to change the past and I accepted, I was then told that since I was immortal the way I would be sent back was going to be different from what the original plan was, instead of just my mind being sent back to the past I was physically sent back with the knowledge that no one would remember what happened when we caught up with the timeline"

"Okay, now that we know it's you, we want you to also coordinate with us from time to time"

"Understood, the old meeting place?"

"No the Kudo house is more secure, besides no one but the four of us currently know about that place and know that it's safe to meet without crows hearing us"

"Got it"

"By the way, the four of us need a unique challenge/response code until the time is right, after all, who knows what trouble you guys will get into"

"Back at you KID"

"I'm not KID anymore, at least not until we get caught up if even then, as such call me by my new name"

"Very well..Asakura"

"In the meantime we should split up, being seen together too frequently..."

"No kidding, I'm watched extremely carefully as it is"

"Bourbon..."

"Hey don't blame me Akai, they know we met on the roof when Scotch was killed and since Scotch and I joined at the same time..."

"Oh they'll think you don't believe my death, plus your mission means..."

"Exactly"

"Understood, just remember what I said about Jodie and to a certain extent Camel as well"

"I'll remember"

"Also, here's my number just in case, but of course..."

"Yeah, limited contact for safety reasons, there's a reason once Rye here was busted we had barely if any contact with each other, though we made sure that we knew the other was okay, I did that primarily through newspapers"

"Oh?"

"I set my computer to have a keyword so that whenever the FBI was mentioned I got news about that, I also discreetly checked your bank account occaisonally when the FBI hadn't been in the news recently"

"I see, as for me I always had to wait for your messages to me"

"Yeah...sorry it wasn't more even in regards to knowing how I was, but I did ensure after we came back to the past that if anything happened to me that you personally would be notified"

"And how did you cover that Furuya?"

"There are a couple of people who know that I'm undercover, I let them know that I met you during your time in the Black Organization undercover and that we each knew the other was a NOC and watched out for each other as best we could after Scotch's death"

"Oh, basically saying you wanted a fellow former NOC to know that one of their own has fallen but to keep up the fight"

"Exactly"

"That would do it, the FBI would have still come you know"

"Oh I know, but I had secret orders sealed in the case of my death that would have allowed you guys to act on your own and yet still be able to coordinate with the PSB at the same time"

"When did you manage that?"

"Hey guys, take it to the house"

The two look around and realize that they were still very much in the open, even if they were keeping their voices down and it was unlikely they would be overheard it was still pretty risky and as such they go back to the Kudo house

"So, again, when did you manage to make those secret orders?"

"Remember when I was ordered back to Japan shortly after Scotch's death?"

"Wait...you have those orders for that long now?"

"Yep, I even updated them the day you called to let me know you were alive"

"Using my Okiya identity and address?"

"Yes, don't worry they don't know you're actually Akai Shuichi presumed dead FBI agent"

"How did you cover my Okiya identity?"

"Don't ask"

"Someone knows don't they?"

"Not...not exactly Akai"

"What did you do?"

"I may have said that if they ever meet someone calling themselves Okiya Subaru, are around Edogawa Conan and seem to have good deduction skills then they should be told that Amuro Toru says, and I am qouting myself who will qoute me 'the crows have found a rat, but they don't know about a silver bullet hiding from them awaiting the moment to strike back' that will be your que that I have died but have left the remaining part of the mission to you and anyone else that's fighting against the Organization either from within or from without"

"Okay...I don't like it, but okay, however I will know a lot easier since you'll likely show up in the newspapers as your Amuro identity since your Furuya identity can't be known at the moment by anyone, in time though they'll let the world know that Furuya Rei is dead though they may or may not reveal you were part of the PSB"

"I know that full well" (thinks) "especially since unlike last time I'm going to be leaving them soon and will either be killed for real or will have to be thought dead by everyone here and at the PSB, the crows are getting too suspicious of me this time around since I'm not going after you as aggressively as last time, even though I have the mission to ascertain if you're alive or not by judging the reactions of your FBI agents"

Three weeks later, shortly after the mall incident Kudo and Akai would receive news that Furuya Rei was dead, the two of them were together with the rest of the kids just going out to eat on Agasa's treat when they came across a case that the PSB was (secretly) involved in. Akai and Kudo would figure out the criminal working together and when that was done Kazami went over to Akai

"You said your name is Okiya Subaru correct?"

"Yes, what is it?"

"I have a message from Amuro Toru he said to tell you and I am qouting him here 'the crows have found a rat, but they don't know about a silver bullet hiding from them awaiting the moment to strike back' now then I don't know what that means but..."

"I do, thank you...for telling me this"

"I'll be coming by later to give you more information"

Kazami then leaves the scene leaving Kudo and Akai alone to process what they had just been told as he walks away Kazami has a thought

(Thinks) "I hope you knew what you were doing regarding Okiya Subaru Furuya, your request regarding the FBI agent was strange enough, but at least with your explanation of him also being undercover in the Organization you were investigating it was understandable, but Okiya...what's his connection to you? Why do you trust their deduction abilities and what was that strange message about that he tried to hide his reaction to?"

Meanwhile Akai and Kudo go back to Kudo's house after being shaken from their shock by the Detective Boys and finishing the meal

"Furuya..."

"He didn't even get onto Bell Tree and see if your sister knew if you were alive or not"

"Kudo...they could have killed him for a number of reasons, either that or because he's undercover if he was doing illegal activities to gain more evidence against the Black Organization and had to shoot at police officers they would have shot back"

"But..."

"Until we have further details we don't know how exactly he was killed"

Late that night Kazami arrived at the Kudo house, he was a little curious as to why Okiya would be at the house of a famous author but as soon as he rang the door bell Okiya was the person who answered the door meaning that it was indeed the right house

"Yes?"

"There's more to what I said earlier today, as promised I am here to give you answers"

"Okay"

Kazami is led to the living room where the three of them sit down

(Sighs) "I think that first of all you should know that Amuro Toru's real name was Furuya Rei and he was a member of the PSB. I'm not here about that though, instead I need to tell you how Furuya was killed, and by the way I don't expect you to give me answers to the cryptic message he left behind for you Okiya"

What he didn't know was that Kudo and Akai had talked and had decided to let Kazami in on the whole secret, including what the message meant if he did indeed know about the Black Organization and Furuya's role in it, which it was seeming likely since he knew Furuya's Amuro identity, but since he hadn't mentioned his Organization code name that wasn't completely a positive form of saying he knew Furuya was undercover in the Organization
