The Detective Conan's Luck-Changer: Ran Begs for Mercy at the Start

The situation at the venue has been basically investigated, including the identities of the three assassins.

When asked who ordered it, they all shook their heads and said they didn't know; the assassination mission was issued anonymously.

Fearing that there might be accomplices of the assassin in the hotel, the police wanted to conduct a thorough search, but were blocked by Earl Keith.

Reluctantly, the police had to let most of the innocent guests leave first, and then negotiate with Earl Keith in the hotel's conference room.

"A deadly poison was found in the princess's wine glass."

"Mr. Keith, please accept our assistance."

"Avoid causing unnecessary diplomatic incidents."

Inspector Megure tried to persuade him again.

Conan and Kogoro Mouri, who were also interested in the case, were in the meeting room.

"The Royal Guard is sufficient."

Earl Keith stood before the floor-to-ceiling windows of the conference room, looking calmly at the brightly lit, bustling streets below.

"Is that enough?"

Miwako Sato couldn't help but retort, "With a security force that can't even take care of the kitchen?"

It's incredibly unprofessional to not even be able to do the most basic food inspection work properly.

Do the people of these kingdoms really want to protect the princess?

"That's because the plan is that the princess won't touch any drinks or food at the party."

Earl Keith explained briefly, then added, "Currently, our country does not need the assistance of the Sakura Police."

The negotiations immediately stalled.

The top floor of the Sakura Hotel

Suddenly, a fire alarm sounded in Princess Mira's heavily guarded room.

The guards rushed into the room to protect the princess.

However, the room's automatic fire suppression system had already been triggered, and countless water mists filled the room, obscuring visibility.

A figure dressed in an elegant long dress stood by the door, lifted the hem of her dress, and slipped out of the room, descending the emergency staircase.

However, upon arriving at the first floor, they found that all exits were heavily guarded.

"I really don't know what Keith is doing."

"I managed to escape so easily."

"If another assassin breaks in tonight, am I doomed?"

Princess Mira was grateful for her good fortune, but also complained that her family's defenses were far too weak.

We need to find a way to locate that Itake Karuta.

"If it's him, he can definitely guarantee my safety..."

Princess Mira murmured to herself, her gaze sweeping across the venue, but she couldn't find Izuki Qingtian.

Meanwhile, the guests had already begun to leave.

Once everyone has left, the hotel will be closed again.

Then there will be even less chance to leave...

Chapter 266 Mira: Why did I do this?

Fortunately, at that moment, Princess Mira spotted a somewhat familiar figure.

A woman dressed in different evening gowns is walking into the women's restroom next to the stairs.

"That's the only way..."

Princess Mira couldn't think of any other way to leave, so she went into the bathroom.

Only one stall door in the women's restroom was closed, and Princess Mila stood guard at the door.

Waiting for the other her to open the door,

Without saying a word, Princess Mira rushed forward, blocked the other woman back into the bathroom, and slammed the door shut.

"You are... Princess Mira?"

Xiao Lan was slightly taken aback, but quickly recognized him.

However, she was somewhat different from the princess in my memory.

Princess Mira pulled out a fruit knife and threatened fiercely, "I don't want to hurt you."

"Be a good girl and give me your clothes!"

Xiaolan tilted her head in confusion.

I glanced at the fruit knife that could be bent with a flick of the wrist.

And the obvious feigned ferocity on Princess Mira's face,

He asked with concern, "Princess, what's wrong?"

"If you need any help, you can tell me."

Looking at Princess Mira, who looked exactly like her, Xiao Lan felt a strange sensation arise in her heart.

Then she noticed a hint of panic in Princess Mira's eyes.

Was it because you were afraid after being assassinated?

"If you really want to help me, give me the clothes!"

Princess Mira reiterated that

At the same time, she avoided Xiaolan's concerned gaze, which made her feel like she was doing something wrong.

"..."

Xiao Lan stared at Princess Mira for a few seconds.

He then nodded and actually took off his evening gown.

Seeing this, Princess Mira put the fruit knife aside and began to undress.

Before long, the two girls, who looked exactly alike, switched clothes.

After changing her clothes, Princess Mira turned to leave.

But Xiaolan grabbed him.

"Um... how should I wear this princess dress?"

Xiaolan held the gorgeous, elaborate princess dress, looking at it from left to right, unsure of what to do.

"What a clumsy fellow, he can't even dress himself..."

Princess Mira made a comment and began helping Xiao Lan put on the princess dress from the Kingdom of Vespania.

However, the princess dress was a bit too narrow at the top, and it took Xiaolan a lot of effort to put it on successfully.

"With a figure like yours, what do you usually eat..."

Princess Mira, seeing Xiao Lan's figure, which was clearly more prominent than her own, couldn't help but feel a competitive urge to compare.

"And your skin is so good..."

"She also smells nice..."

Princess Mira suddenly felt that, judging by appearance alone, Xiao Lan seemed to fit the word "princess" better.

Xiaolan said shyly, "I'm sorry, I can't tell you these things..."

After all, a large part of these changes are due to Itake Karuda.

"Fine, don't tell me then, I don't care anyway."

Princess Mira spoke haughtily as she continued to help adjust the princess dress.

Then, coming to her senses, she suddenly frowned: "Why should I do this kind of thing?"

She usually gets dressed by a maid.

Princess Mira suddenly felt like a maid.

"If a princess can't even dress properly, she'll easily attract attention."

Xiao Lan explained, "Besides, the later I'm discovered, the further you can go, Princess, right?"

Princess Mira was stunned. "You... how could you..."

Why would she help someone whose name I don't even know?

"It's alright, Princess."

"I will buy you some time."

"so……"
