Detective Conan: The Ultimate Growth Space

therefore.

He quickly grabbed Princess Mira's hand that was holding the glass and took the red wine from her.

at this time.

A man walked in through the door; he was only wearing a short-sleeved shirt and shorts.

He pointed at the waiter and said, "He just knocked me unconscious and took off my clothes."

The incident caused the banquet attendees to panic and rush out.

The waiter already knew he had been exposed earlier, and now this man in the short-sleeved shirt has appeared.

This can be considered confirmed.

therefore.

He kicked the cart away and tried to escape.

But how could he be allowed to escape when faced with wisdom and courage?

Zhi Yong stepped in front of him and blocked his way.

Before the other party could react.

Zhi Yong raised his leg and kicked at the other person.

Because Zhiyong was too fast, his opponent didn't even have time to react before being kicked away.

Just then, security personnel rushed over, pinned the man to the ground, and handcuffed him.

There were police officers nearby.

therefore.

I received a phone call.

Inspector Megure brought Takagi to the banquet.

Although the assassination attempt failed, it caused chaos, and the banquet has now been suspended.

However, the guests at the banquet have not yet been allowed to leave.

After all, they will all need to be questioned by the police.

Among these people.

Actually, Mori was the most unhappy person.

The detective agency is doing quite well right now.

But Xiaolan is there.

Every time a commission was received, Xiaolan would take a large portion of it, leaving only a small portion as pocket money for the gross profit.

This meant that Mori didn't have enough money left for drinking, making it even more impossible for him to drink to his heart's content.

After all, drinking requires sufficient financial support.

therefore.

When there are various banquets, it's a time for Mori to drink freely, and he can drink to his heart's content without any limits.

In the past few days.

Because there were no banquets, he had been holding back, but he hadn't had a proper drink yet.

therefore.

I received an invitation.

This made Mori very happy.

Maori has been waiting for this day.

however.

The day had finally arrived, and Mori had thought he could finally have a good drink.

But it was only for the time it takes him to go to the toilet.

They haven't returned yet.

Everything is over now.

This made Mori very resentful.

In Mori's heart, however, he harbored resentment towards the guy who ruined his plans.

He cursed her countless times in his heart.

Now the group has entered the meeting room.

As someone skilled at capturing assassins, Zhi Yong was also invited here.

Now inside the meeting room.

There were only four people: Inspector Megure, Takagi, Tomoyuki, and Count Keith.

After all, this was not an ordinary case, so Mori wasn't invited, and Conan was even less likely to be.

Who would recognize a primary school student like him?

The police have already investigated the red wine that Princess Mira was going to drink after they arrived.

Takagi explained, "After our investigation, we found poison in the red wine. So, it can be proven that the man wanted to poison Princess Mira. Fortunately, Zhiyong discovered it, which is a blessing in disguise, and it prevented a tragedy."

……

Chapter 640 Contact

After Takagi finished his introduction.

Inspector Megure stared at Count Keith.

Despite this incident, the Kingdom of Vesbania did not agree to call the police, nor did it allow the island nation's police to participate in protecting Princess Mira.

therefore.

Now this has happened.

This greatly displeased Inspector Megure.

But even if they were dissatisfied, they had no way to express it.

Although Earl Keith did not allow the island nation's police to participate in protecting Princess Mira, this has now happened.

He still needs to explain.

After all, they came to the island nation without intending to strain relations with it.

"Because we judged that the royal family's security forces were already sufficient, we did not involve you."

Takagi protested, "Enough? Then why aren't there any security personnel in the kitchen?"

"Takagi."

Inspector Megure noticed Takagi's tone and worried that he might be angry, so he quickly intervened.

Earl Keith explained, "We had already spoken with Princess Mira beforehand and agreed not to touch any of the food or drinks at the banquet. However, we still want to thank this friend."

After hearing this explanation.

Inspector Megure was also at a loss.

He turned to Sato and said, "Brother Sato, I really have to thank you this time. How did you know that the sommelier was problematic?"

Zhiyong replied, “It’s very simple. This is the best hotel, and that’s a top-notch sommelier. If that’s the case, then it’s very strange that I smelled smoke when he passed by me. Even if he smokes, it should be in private. He shouldn’t let people smell smoke while he’s working. But he smoked when he was serving wine to Princess Mira.”

Inspector Megure nodded and said, "That's true. Sommeliers don't smoke, especially when serving wine to Princess Mira. But conversely, many criminals smoke a cigarette before committing a crime to calm themselves down. Thank you this time."

Regarding what Inspector Megure said.

Zhiyong didn't care anymore.

Because Zhiyong had already sent out his clone earlier.

His main focus right now is on his clone.

at this time.

The clone is in Princess Mira's room.

Princess Mira was terrified by what had just happened.

After all, she was just a nineteen-year-old girl.

He had always been spoiled by his family, just like the Happy Prince, and had never encountered anything like this before.

therefore.

This left her sitting on the sofa, still not fully recovered.

Princess Mira.
