Part 2 of this arc is now underway as Kyuji and Shiho are going to help retrieve Rosemarie's baby, and Ankh is persuaded to help, so expect some detective elements to come in to play as they are about to discover a human trafficking ring being behind what they soon find out, a spate of babies being sold "under the counter"...

Kyuji, Ai and Ankh decided to take Rosemarie to the Detective Agency office where they were able to catch up with Kogoro Mori, who is with his daughter Ran, and are about to close the office and there Kyuji told the two not to close the office yet as Ai told them what they encountered several minutes ago (minus the Ankh scaring scene), and after hearing the details, Kogoro is starting to smoke his cigar, as this is the first time he has encountered a case where foreign babies are being smuggled in to Japan and sold to childless couples who are willing to pay a high price just to have an "easy adoption", and both he and Ran agreed to look after Rosemarie, with Ran using a Japanese-Spanish dictionary to help her in "talking" to the woman.

"...and that's what happened..."

"Right now Rosemarie is waiting outside...it' best that you look after her for now."

"Hmm...this is the first time I encountered something like this..."

"Daddy...I say we look after the woman."

"Okay...but what would you two do?"

"We'll dig further in to this matter."

"We'll call you when we come up with more info."

"Okay."

120:Imin, Akachan, Umi no Konbo part 2

The next day, Ran invited Rosemarie to her apartment and there she made her feel at home while assuring to her that her baby son would be found (in fluent Spanish as Ran is able to translate some sentences and with a help from a Google translator on the internet), which gives Rosemarie the will to face the odds stacked against her. She is becoming grateful and told Ran that it was all thanks to Ankh, who scared off the hoodlums who tried to stole the money took.

"Here...feel at home...sorry it's not this big..."

"I'm grateful to you..."

"Don't mention it...I'm glad that Kyuji and the others found you first. Don't worry...your son will be found soon..."

"Yes, I will..."

"For now, stay strong...face the challenges that come in your way...I'm sure you can overcome them..."

"I see...I will follow your advice."

"That's good to hear."

"Thank you, Miss Ran..."

Ran decided to skip classes for now so that Rosemarie would have a "guardian" since she is aware that the woman came to Japan illegally and had to keep her hidden until the baby is found. She wondered how Kyuji and Ankh would fit in since the case they are now following doesn't involve either the Black Organization or the Greed and their Yummies, but she hoped that things would go smoothly without attracting attention.

"I Hope Kyuji keeps ankh in line...even though Shinichi is still in a coma...I'm sure he would be aware that Ankh is possessing his body..."

-x-

At the Agasa house, Kyuji and Shiho are facing the computer and are logged in on the internet, and had just summoned Gotoh, asking him if he has any police records he could recall about illegal baby trafficking and any known adoption agencies that are involved, which Gotoh admitted that he hasn't encountered a case like this, but he is willing to ask some of his "connections" to supply him with information once the questions are asked.

"...so you want my help in this case...?"

"Yes..."

"Have you ever encounter something like this before...?"

"No...this is the first time I encountered this..."

"I see..."

"But I will you you guys on this."

"Really...?"

"Yes. I have some informers I know...I'll ask them if they can provide some info..."

"Thanks!"

As Gotoh leaves to call some of his "informers" who might have some leads, Kyuji and Shiho are joined by Ankh, who tells them that he is going to help after getting in to a bickering with Shinichi's consciousness and the trio are now getting ahead in their investigation, as they surfed the internet to check on orphanages and social welfare agencies where childless couples would frequented and chooses an infant orphan to adopt.

But after several minutes of searching, the results showed that the agencies and establishments they checked are "clean" and thus they are back to square one, realizing that this is not going to be easy. However, Ankh told the two that he secretly scanned Rosemarie's memories and told them that among the memories he scanned are two Japanese-Latin persons who talked to Rosemarie in to selling her baby. He then sketched the two persons in questions while Shiho gets a call from Gotoh as he told her that he asked some couples who adopted a baby, and there he told them that he is able to trace the source to a certain doctor named "Raiyoh".

"A Doctor Raiyoh you say...?"

"Yes...he's is said to be a popular doctor who checks on women who are expecting a baby and stuff...but he also acts as an unofficial counselor when it comes to adoption..."

"Then he might be connected in some way..."

"We might consider investigating him..."

"Shiho's right...Kyuji...I'll be needing your help on this one..."

"Count me in!"

"Me too!"

"Good..."

-x-

While Kyuji and the gang are busy getting leads, the scene shifts to a two-story house somewhere at the end of Tokyo, nearing Shibuya border, where a van is parked after it just arrived and two persons emerged from the van who appeared to be of Japanese-Latin origins, and they opened the compartment where several babies are stored after taking them from the wharf where the babies arrived from other countries, and the two transporters are revealed to be named Reone and Steruvia, who were a part-time ambulance driver and nurse respectively.

"Ah...finally arrived..."

"Yeah...after a long hours of traveling..."

"The doc's going to be pleased..."

"With more incentives to receive..."

"And a FAT bonus too..."

"Glad we met him..."

"Well...time to deliver these little tykes..."

"Okay..."

Reone and Steruvia are secretly receiving the babies from two South American smugglers who brought the babies and Reone and Steruvia in turn delivers the babies to the two-story house where the owner came out, who turn out to be Dr. Raiyoh, who is a doctor who specializes in OB Gynecology as well as telling couples on whether there is a chance that they could conceive a baby or not. It is also revealed that Raiyoh, Reone and Steruvia are the "trafficking ring" and has profited so much in selling babies to wealthy childless couples at a high price and have gotten away with it.

"Hello, you two..."

"Hello, Dr. Raiyoh..."

"Hi, doc...looking good today..."

"Yes...and it looks like you brought the delivery on time..."

"Yeah...a dozen dime to boot..."

"And it worked wonders too..."

"Well then...time to get to work...if you want the bonus to come to you..."

"Then off to work we go!"

"Yeah!"

The trio then went inside and brought the babies with them as they are now going to find potential customers who are willing to accept the price range of babies they intend to sell.

-x-

Another two days have passed, Kyuji and Shiho persevered and their patience have paid off as they managed to track down the whereabouts of Dr. Raiyoh, as well as his clinic, and there, Gotoh and Akira arrived as they have been working together in this case and there at Gotoh's suggestion, and at Akira's urging, Kyuji and Shiho went to Raiyoh's clinic to pose as walk-in patients so as to meet with the doctor himself to see how he deals with his patients and to see if he and his clinic is involved in the underground adoption that Rosemarie had just told them.

"Eh?"

"You want Kyuji and me to...?"

"You heard us..."

"You two are going undercover as patients...and making it appear that you plan to have a baby and stuff..."

"Really...?"

"This is the first time I'm posing like this..."

"According to our sources...Raiyoh was the one who suggested the adoption thing..."

"And using the candroids I borrowed...the babies whom the couple adopted were mostly foreign...so it's likely that the doctor is the ringleader..."

"...and we need proof that he's behind this...and you two are all we need..."

"So play along...for Rosemarie to be reunited with her baby..."

"Okay..."

"We'll go then..."

An hour later, Kyuji and Shiho arrived at Raiyoh's clinic, and are bracing themselves for this kind of situation. As Kyuji and Shiho went inside to pretend to have a check-up, Ankh is at the parking lot as he is holding a Batta Candroid attached to his I-Phone while Kyuji and Shiho went inside the clinic, and now he is to monitor the activities and to see what Raiyoh can do, mentally wondering why he allowed Shinichi's consciousness to coax him in doing a detective work, and had to patiently put up with it.

"Really...why did i let that blasted human talk me in to doing this...?!"

A brief flashback scene shows that last night Ankh stood outside of Raiyoh's clinic and sends a Taka Candroid inside to hide a Batta Candroid and place it within Raiyoh's office so that he can monitor and record the conversation that is due to happen the next day. He hoped that the "case" he is to investigate would at least be "entertaining" enough to kill time since he would prefer going after Yummies for their Cell Medals.

By then, Raiyoh's voice is heard via the speakers as the conversation is about to begin as Kyuji and Shiho's voices are heard, and Ankh gets ready as he is ready to eavesdrop on the conversation.

"Finally...this better be worth the time I spent in to..!"

Inside Raiyoh's clinic, the doctor is talking with Shiho and Kyuji as the "couple" inquired if adopting a baby is practical than conceiving one, and what are the advantages and disadvantages, as well as asking for the best options available if ever conceiving a baby through natural means would be impossible. Ankh is watching the footage and can see Raiyoh smirking deviously as he is about to give his reply. He braces himself to listen and see how the conversation would turn out.

"Ah...hello...please sit down..."

"Hello, doctor..."

"We heard a lot about you..."

"Really...?"

"Yes..."

"Actually...we want to ask you something..."

"Yes...what is sit...?"

"It's abut babies..."

"About adopting a baby...we were thinking about it in case we...couldn't make one..."

"Glad you asked...here are the results...are you ready to listen?"

"Yes..."

"Okay...here it's like this..."

Raiyoh tells them that while it is okay to conceive a baby on their own, he tries to convince them that adopting one would be the best practical way as he brought out a chart of the x-ray of Shiho's womb, claiming that her ovary has been infected and that she won't be able to give birth forever, and when adoption became a discussion, he tells them the complication that it would be impossible if either one of both of them possesses a single, even the least law violation.

Kyuji and Shiho can already sense the deception but played along by pretending to be dejected, but the Raiyoh suggested that there is an alternative way to adopt, which she said that the discussion would take place somewhere else and both the "couple" and Ankh deduced where this conversation would take place, yet Shiho willingly accepted it and the stage is set.

"Oh...this is not good...I can't have a baby..."

"Don't cry..."

"But...but..."

"It's okay..."

"I want to hang myself!"

"Um...Mr. and Mrs. Hino...you don't have to be like that...I know of a way to give you access to an easier adoption..."

"Huh?"

"Really...?"
