I'm in Detective Conan, and the system has appointed Batman.

Chapter 816 Hey, I have a plan!
"Brother Chen En, you're here!"

I saw Chen En appear at the door of the conference room.

Genta and Mitsuhiko immediately became happy.

Because Shiratori Ninzaburo only asked Kobayashi Sumiko a question in the conference room.

They completely ignored the members of the Junior Detective League.

It's hard not to make Genta and Mitsuhiko unhappy.

And then Chen En, an unofficial member who wouldn't treat the Junior Detective Club like it was invisible, appeared.

Their minds immediately became active.

However, the members of the Junior Detective League were happy.

Chen En simply took out his coffee cup and took a sip.

Then he sighed.

"How wonderful it would be if Conan were here too."

When I'm with the Junior Detective Club kids.

It's still more convenient to use Conan, which has already been integrated into the segmented system.

Ai Haibara, who hadn't fully integrated into the segmented atmosphere, seemed a bit unable to liven things up.

It was as if he knew Chen En was talking badly about him in his heart.

Ai Haibara glanced at Chen En.

He gave a disapproving look.

Then he pulled Kobayashi Sumiko and Ayumi and left the conference room together.

After telling Shiratori Ninzaburo to be careful, Inspector Megure said he had something to take care of and then left.

Shiratori Renzaburo immediately sat down in the conference chair, cold sweat pouring down his face.

Although he felt he knew what was going on.

However, it's inevitable to feel a little uneasy.

Especially after Inspector Megure casually revealed that important information when he returned last night.

When the criminal investigation department staff heard that he had used Sato Miwako as a substitute meal, they were shocked.

Their eyes immediately turned fierce.

This caused him to plummet from his position as the highest-ranking person in charge of the Miwako defense line.

It's hard to say whether his colleagues will beat him up if he messes up this case.

If it's not necessary, it's best to avoid any illegal operations.

"Mr. Shiratori".

"Have you made any progress in this case?"

Chen En casually pulled out a chair and sat down.

Genta and Mitsuhiko sat on either side of him.

He looked like a lackey next to a big boss.

This left Shiratori Ninzaburo, who was reading this, somewhat speechless, both amused and exasperated.

He's not even fully grown yet, and he's already acting as someone else's lackey.

However, he was facing Chen En, a detective who was indeed very capable.

Shiratori Ninzaburo's eyes turned serious.

"Well, to put it simply, there's no lead in this case."

None of the three suspects have an alibi.

"At the same time, they all have reasons to take revenge on the deceased, and the evidence left at the scene cannot point to any of the people present, so the only way to solve this case is..."

He hasn't finished speaking yet.

Chen En interrupted him directly.

"Do you need me to remind you?"

"A recording that is not disclosed to the parties involved has no legal effect."

Upon hearing this, Shiratori Ninzaburo was startled.

Then he shook his head and said in a low voice.

"Of course the police know about this."

"However, things should be done quickly."

"These three suspects simply lack alibis. We cannot detain them for an extended period. If one of them is the murderer, then we already know Ms. Kobayashi's true identity and where she attends school."

"If we don't use extraordinary measures to release them and then confirm their identities, Ms. Kobayashi might get hurt."

"So I thought of first identifying the suspect, and then slowly finding evidence that could prove that the suspect was the murderer, which is the presumption of guilt method of solving crimes..."

"Mr. Chen En is also a detective, so he should be very familiar with this kind of reasoning, right?" However, presumption of guilt is illegal.

However, Chen En did not investigate further.

Presumption of guilt may be illegal, but it is unlikely that it is illegal.

In this world, from police officers to detectives, everyone solves cases using the presumption of guilt.

We can't just condemn them all, can we?
Our country has its own unique circumstances regarding the science of science.

"Ms. Kobayashi told you that none of the three audio recordings were the same voice she originally heard, is that right?"

Chen En placed his coffee cup on the conference table and asked directly.

Upon hearing this, Shiratori Ninzaburo shook his head slightly and then said.

"To be precise, it's the first two paragraphs."

"Two of the three suspects are women and one is a man."

"The voices of the first two women were different from the voice of the murderer that Ms. Kobayashi heard last night, and Ms. Kobayashi left before she could even listen to the last recording of the man."

"I plan to ask her to listen to it in detail when she comes back."

Chen En raised his eyebrows slightly.

Since we've already come this far, and it's only a few seconds, wouldn't it be the same to let her listen to the whole thing before she leaves?
He yawned.

Then he said.

"Let's not worry about that for now."

"I have a plan to solve the case."

“We don’t need to use any of the evidence we have now, Officer Shiratori. If you want to hear my plan, please come out with me. This plan is not convenient to discuss with the children.”

Gentai, Mitsuhiko:?

What plan is it that we can't hear about?
Love can fade, right?
The two remaining members of the Junior Detective League looked at Chen En and Shiratori Renzaburo with resentful eyes.

That look made Shiratori Ninzaburo feel a little uneasy.

But he still nodded and said.

"Okay, okay, of course it's good."

"Take a step to speak."

He knew that the plan Chen En was about to propose was probably not a good one.

Otherwise, they shouldn't have avoided the members of the Junior Detective League.

Even if it's not a great plan, it's still worth listening to.

Because it's almost certain that the murderer hasn't been found.

Neither of the two women was the murderer.

The remaining man was obviously not one of them either.

Because the two people arguing that Kobayashi Sumiko saw were both women.

Could she possibly not distinguish between men and women?

It doesn't matter if a cat is black or white, as long as it catches mice, it's a good cat.

Whatever the plan, it's worth listening to it.

Chen En and Shiratori Renzaburo walked out of the conference room.

Genta and Mitsuhiko exchanged a glance.

Each of them realized what the other was thinking.

Damn it, you told me not to follow you, so I won't?

Where do you put the reputation of our Junior Detective League?
You don't want me to come along, but I'm going to come anyway!

Our Junior Detective Club's biggest characteristic is our opposition to authority!
We won't listen to whoever is in authority!
A corner outside the conference room.

"...You mean this plan?"

"If Inspector Megure were to tell this, he would really kill me."

Shiratori Ninzaburo's face turned bitter.

He finally understood why Chen En was unwilling to tell the members of the Junior Detective Club about this plan.

This is a typical decoy plan.

But it is indeed possible to catch the murderer without relying on any existing evidence.

The murderer already knew Kobayashi Sumiko's identity, appearance, and name.

Then all we need to do is wait for the murderer to make a move, and then catch the murderer directly.

However, it is well known that Inspector Megure hates decoy plans the most.

Inspector Megure's wife, Midori Megure, almost died during the decoy operation.

Now they're using an ordinary civilian as bait, isn't that like dancing in Inspector Megure's minefield?
