The Daily Life of a Salted Fish Assassin in Anime Crossovers

Conan, who knows more about the matter, is even more certain of this.

Because he was the one who created the sleeping Kogoro, he knew best how capable Kogoro Mouri really was.

If Jiang Hang hadn't intervened, how could Kogoro Mouri have suddenly fallen into a deep sleep?

He had even deduced why Jiang Hang had suddenly gone to the crime scene the night before last—it was because he was worried that Kogoro Mouri would be exposed after encountering a murder case, thus revealing his true identity.

Conan was quite moved when he thought that Jiang Hang was helping him by using his fame as a stepping stone for Kogoro Mouri.

But seeing Kogoro Mouri's smug and self-satisfied appearance is really a bit uncomfortable.

Since the people he chose are already in this situation, he really has no choice but to grit his teeth and continue on.

"I really have to trouble you with Uncle Mori's matter," Conan said to Jiang Hang with a bit of helplessness after Kogoro Mori went to help with the discharge procedures, and also asked about the details of the case from the night before last.

Jiang Hang accepted Conan's thanks quite readily.

"You and Ran really should thank me, otherwise when your Uncle Mori comes back, he might bring a new mistress back to the Mori Detective Agency."

Jiang Hang briefly explained the matter of Rain City Ruri to Conan.

Conan keeps his mouth shut, so there's no need to worry about him revealing these secrets.

Upon hearing that Uncle Mori had a girl who had always liked him when he was young, Conan's expression became even more peculiar.

He vaguely remembered the name Yu Cheng Liuli.

After all, his mother was an actress back in the day, and Yu Cheng Liuli was his classmate. They entered the entertainment industry together after graduating from middle school, so there was still some connection between them.

I really didn't expect that not only would an elite lawyer like Aunt Fei have a whirlwind marriage with an unreliable guy like Kogoro Mouri after graduation, but there would also be a big star who has had a crush on Uncle Mouri for so many years.

I don't know if my mom knows about these gossips.

"Cough cough, then I really have to trouble you. Otherwise, there would definitely be big trouble at home," Conan wiped his forehead.

Just thinking about the possibility of the kind of chaotic battlefield described by Jiang Hang made him sweat a little, even in the dead of winter.

Seeing Conan's somewhat guilty look, Jiang Hang realized what was going on.

When Conan was still Shinichi Kudo, he was quite the ladies' man.

There are probably a lot of people who would send love letters to Shinichi Kudo, not to mention that in the story, there are several women who take the initiative to come to him and pretend to be Shinichi Kudo's girlfriend or first love.

So Jiang Hang gently patted Conan on the shoulder.

"You don't need to put yourself in that situation. You're not like Mori, with that stubborn and unyielding personality. With your fighting ability and personality, you'll definitely be a henpecked husband in the future."

Xiaolan's ability to shatter a cement pillar with a single punch when she's enraged is no joke.

"Who, who is henpecked? Don't talk nonsense here. How could I become that kind of person?" Conan blushed and was about to argue.

Jiang Hang interrupted his argument directly.

"Then I'll just confront your Xiaolan directly now. We've maintained this tacit understanding for so long, so it's okay to break the last barrier, right?"

Upon hearing this, Conan immediately backed down.

It seems like there's no difference between the two, but he can still deceive himself and act like a child in front of others. Ran usually treats him like "Conan".

He is only treated as "Shinichi Kudo" when a case occurs.

According to Conan's guess, this was indeed a tacit understanding between Ran and him.

However, when I went to Shiho Miyano for a physical examination, she mentioned another possibility.

That is, after Xiaolan lost her memory, although she eventually recovered it, she may have had some cognitive biases regarding some of her memories, which is why she is in this situation now.

If it gets completely exposed, it would be fine if Ran accepts it calmly, but Conan doesn't want it to cause any further emotional distress to Ran.

Let's maintain the current understanding.

When Shiho Miyano develops the antidote for drug A.

After regaining his original body, he went to Jiang Hang to learn the skills of disguise and impersonation, and then told Ran everything as Shinichi Kudo.

This is the best and safest solution Conan can think of right now.

Therefore, he really doesn't dare to banter with Jiang Hang here right now.

However, Jiang Hang doesn't really know much about Xiao Lan's situation.

After learning that the other person's memory had been fully restored, he stopped having any contact with Xiaolan.

After all, he's not some kind of nymph, so why is he so hung up on their childhood sweetheart relationship?

Wouldn't it be better to play a few more games and watch a few more episodes of the new anime?

Shiho Miyano and Conan naturally wouldn't mention these things in front of him.

The only slightly strange thing about him was that the request to reveal Conan's identity to Ran hadn't ended yet, and that it was still being displayed as a 5-star request.

But he wasn't in a hurry to upgrade his firm's ranking.

If no new reward mechanisms or new content are introduced, a level 5 agency will simply double its current mission rewards.

He's not short of money right now, and he doesn't think he'll be stuck with a five-star request while he's on the Conan set.

In short, after seeing Conan back down, Jiang Hang stopped talking about the topic and instead brought up the situation at the hospital with Conan.

Chapter 531: The Mole Within the Police Force

If it were Conan, who usually likes to wander around, he would naturally be able to sense the atmosphere inside the hospital and the presence of those plainclothes police officers.

However, he has been in the hospital for more than ten days and has been carefully taken care of by Ran. Conan, who has always lived in a gentle and loving environment, has indeed become less sensitive in this regard.

It wasn't until Jiang Hang reminded him that he realized there seemed to be some doctors and caregivers in the hospital corridors that he hadn't seen in the past few days, but who looked somewhat familiar upon closer inspection.

Looking back now, wasn't this just plainclothes police officers in disguise?

"We're trying to use this place to lure out the suspects' accomplices. What if something unexpected happens?" Conan said, sounding slightly worried.

After all, those were robbers who had recently robbed a bank and even had access to firearms.

For their own safety, these people probably wouldn't care about the safety of their accomplices, and they certainly wouldn't care about the safety of the hospital staff.

If the other side really does something big, the Metropolitan Police Department will also be under a lot of pressure.

Jiang Hang continued, "So I came to check it out. After all, I went out for a long time last night to warm up and brought over twenty thieves and troublemakers to the Metropolitan Police Department. They sent quite a few people out to the Metropolitan Police Department to interrogate those guys."

Conan rolled his eyes at Jiang Hang upon hearing this.

Through some simple reasoning, he naturally knew that Jiang Hang sometimes liked to wear those strange clothes to go out and play the role of a vigilante in Tokyo, punishing evil and promoting good.

However, if the punishment of evil and promotion of good is taken too far, it may occasionally lead to the Metropolitan Police Department not being able to spare enough manpower for some missions.

"Have you figured anything out yet?" Conan asked. He knew he was no match for Jiang Hang in terms of observation skills. He had only just recovered and couldn't run around like before, so he decided to ask Jiang Hang instead.

Jiang Hang shrugged.

“We can definitely tell something from the evidence, but it’s mostly police planning. Even without questioning Inspector Megure and the others, we should be able to pinpoint which hospital room the suspect arrested by the police is in. However, we haven’t seen anyone connected to those robbers yet, and we don’t know when they will arrive.”

Jiang Hang stroked his chin: "I don't know if those robbers have already decided to abandon their accomplice and find a chance to escape abroad, or if they have already scouted the place but haven't found a way to break in yet."

"I'm planning to go see Inspector Megure to ask him about the details. Do you want to come with me?"

There was no need to ask such a question; Conan immediately made a "no problem" gesture.

After lying in bed for almost half a month, it's about time I started to get back into detective mode.

Jiang Hang left Miyano Shi here so that he could help explain if Ran or Mori asked him about it later. Then, Jiang Hang easily found Inspector Megure, whom he thought was well disguised, in the hospital's surveillance room.

When Jiang Hang suddenly pushed open the door to the monitoring room, Inspector Megure, who was sitting in the monitoring room discussing the arrest plan with his subordinates, was startled.

He only breathed a slight sigh of relief after seeing that it was Jiang Hang.

"Brother Jiang Hang, what brings you here all of a sudden?"

"Wait, how did you get here?"

He didn't tell Jiang Hang about this, because although some of the manpower here had been transferred away, there were still quite a few plainclothes police officers left in the hospital.

Furthermore, the injured suspect has passed the critical period, and basically, as long as he stays in the hospital for another day, he can be transferred for questioning.

With just one day and the advantage of numbers on his side, Inspector Megure felt confident he could solve the case.

In fact, they knew that Conan was hospitalized here through a list provided by the hospital, and they could also find through surveillance that the famous detective Kogoro Mouri was also in the hospital. However, Inspector Megure felt that it was better not to ask Kogoro Mouri for help with this matter.

What surprised Inspector Megure even more was that he hadn't seen Jiang Hang on the surveillance footage at all, and his plainclothes officers hadn't reported finding him either.

So how did Jiang Hang manage to sneak into the monitoring room?

Conan, who was standing nearby, also felt somewhat puzzled after hearing Inspector Megure's question.

After all, they didn't see Jiang Hang deliberately avoiding the hospital's cameras as he moved along the way.

Judging from what Inspector Megure said, it seems like they hadn't seen Jiang Hang on the surveillance footage at all before?

Is Jiang Hang's ability to evade camera capture really that abnormal?

In Conan's mind, he even imagined that Jiang Hang might already know the operation of all the cameras in and around the hospital.

It seemed that Jiang Hang had no intention of avoiding the cameras at all, but in reality, he had already made calculations in his mind, which is why he was able to move so easily when the cameras were avoiding his position.

However, Jiang Hang's answer was even more outrageous than they had imagined.

"Oh, you mean surveillance? When I was learning hacking techniques, I got a small program from my hometown that can block most surveillance systems that run on the internet. As long as the surveillance system is connected to the network, I can make myself disappear from the surveillance footage or change my appearance to that of another person."

As Jiang Hang said this, he walked over to the monitor in front of Inspector Megure and casually adjusted the footage from the previous ten minutes.

Then he pointed to a person in the surveillance footage who looked and dressed completely differently from him and said to Inspector Megure, "That person is actually me. Because the internet speed isn't very fast, you can actually see some flaws if you look closely."

Jiang Hang pointed to the slight distortion around the person in the surveillance footage and explained this to Inspector Megure.

This explanation made Inspector Megure feel like he was listening to gibberish.

Is this still the 21st century he knows?

Is this technology really something that can be available right now?

It feels like technology suddenly jumped forward by forty or fifty years.

Due to Japanese traditions and aversion to surveillance equipment, the coverage of surveillance networks in Japan is extremely limited, except for hospitals and some public facilities.

With great difficulty, the surveillance rate has gradually increased over the years, and the number of cases that can be solved by surveillance is also constantly increasing.

As a result, Jianghang suddenly came up with something that could directly block surveillance equipment?

Inspector Megure felt like the sky was about to fall.
