We are, yes. He definitely won't like it but no one can do everything on their own, no matter how smart they are. [Conan thinks that if no one knows his secret that he'll be safe and that he'll be able to keep all of them safe too. Maybe it would, maybe being in the dark is the only option left but that doesn't mean they won't exhaust every available idea first.]

Fugazi. [Italian for fake or phony but also slang from the Vietnam War for a messed up situation. Might as well stick with their old military terms while not staying within the boundaries of just one war.]

Fugazi. [ Sherlock tests the word out and gives a brief nod, committing it to memory. ]

Then of course there's the problem of learning how to identify these people-if it is an organisation there is, no doubt, a large number of them.

[They're going to end up with a million codewords someday.]

As far as I know they wear black suits and they've no special powers. The one main difference between what we're used to and about Conan's world is the drug that they forced on him. Their skills and abilities are things that we're used to dealing with. It will help that they aren't likely to be the sort to put themself on the network so casually and there don't seem to be many here who they could ally themselves with.

[Most of the people here seemed to be the kind who wouldn't get involved with shady individuals.]

[ They will be able to talk in their own secret code. Sherlock is okay with this. ]

It's more of a problem if they don't make themselves known. And if they come across the cultist that could turn into a much worse situation.

[consultantsdoctor]

[A bit surprising they don't have their own secret code already. It could be like when they took on the Chinese smuggling ring.]

That's the part that concerns me too. If they decide to ditch their black suit after arrival, we won't be able to pick them out of a crowd. Even Conan doesn't know who all might be a member of the organization.

We'll just have to remain vigilant and keep an eye out. For the moment that's about all we can do.
