Detective Conan: The Ultimate Growth Space

Is there a problem with this?

"Please look at the powder here."

Princess Mira dipped her finger in the substance, examined it closely, and even tasted it, but she couldn't discern what it was.

"what is this?"

Zhiyong replied, "This is gunpowder, and there's also a bullet under the table. This all indicates one thing."

"what?"

"Queen Sacramento loved nature and did not want the prince to hunt animals, so the bullets she gave the prince were problematic."

Princess Mira asked doubtfully, "Is there something wrong with the bullet?"

Zhiyong then pointed to the photo on the table and said, "When Queen Sacramento was young, she won the pentathlon championship in equestrianism, swimming, running, fencing, and shooting. This means that Queen Sacramento was also very proficient in shooting. Therefore, she must have removed the gunpowder from the bullet and turned it into a blank. So here's the question: how could such a bullet possibly kill Queen Sacramento?"

Are you sure?

Zhiyong smiled and said, "So, I think that someone else killed Queen Sacra or Prince Gil at the time, and that the hunting rifle that killed Queen Sacra was switched with his own. The hunting rifle that Prince Gil is actually using now is that person's hunting rifle, and the bullets inside are blanks. This can be proven by checking."

Upon hearing this, Princess Mira immediately sent for Earl Keith and instructed Garrier, the chief of the palace guards, to retrieve the hunting rifle that Duke Girard had used.

Not long afterward.

Count Keith arrived.

Garil, the chief of the palace guards, also brought over a hunting rifle.

In this regard.

Count Keith and Garril were unaware of what had happened.

After showing the two people the evidence in the Queen's room, Zhiyong explained his reasoning.

The two then understood the reason.

Garrier immediately picked up the shotgun and tested it.

"Sure enough, the bullets in this shotgun were blanks, which means that it was impossible for Prince Gil to have hit Her Majesty the Queen with this gun."

The two had already suspected something was wrong regarding the deaths of Queen Sacramento and Prince Gil.

Now that such evidence has emerged, they are even more convinced.

The deaths of Queen Sacramento and Prince Gil were not simple accidents or suicides, but rather a planned murder.

then.

They tried another shotgun, and sure enough, the bullets inside were real.

Next.

The fact that Prince Gilles is left-handed was also revealed.

Even in normal times.

Prince Giles was taught to use his right hand when writing or eating.

however.

At other times.

Prince Giles still prefers to use his left hand.

That's all.

Apart from the Queen and Princess Mila, no one else knew about this.

That is precisely the reason.

Duke Girard was unaware of this, which is why this mistake occurred.

But now it's been discovered.

In this case.

There's something amiss about the circumstances surrounding Prince Gilles' death.

After all, if you're going to die...

When Prince Gilles was so heartbroken, he would have instinctively used his left hand, which he was more comfortable with.

However, the revolver used for suicide was placed in Prince Gil's right hand.

After another round of operations.

As for Duke Girard, there is even more evidence that he killed Queen Sacramento and Prince Gil.

In order to obtain more accurate evidence.

Zhiyong then obtained the surveillance footage from Earl Keith.

After all, this is a kingdom, not some Western country like the United States.

For secretly filmed videos.

These cannot be considered evidence.

Zhiyong has the ability to become invisible.

therefore.

In a short period of time, a large amount of evidence was recorded.

After all, for Duke Girard...

Victory is now in sight, and given that it's his private residence, he simply doesn't believe that someone could have recorded it.

Among them was Duke Girard, who was involved in bribery and incited the people to oppose Princess Mira's ascension to the throne.

Now we can say that the evidence is quite sufficient.

therefore.

After passing through Count Keith's market, before Princess Mira ascended the throne, the matter was exposed and even broadcast on the Vesbania Kingdom's television station.

Those videos were played.

This caused quite a stir.

Especially the person who opposed Princess Mira's ascension to the throne.

Although some people were bribed by Duke Girard, a large portion of the population was simply incited.

Now we see these videos.

No one feels comfortable being used as a tool.

therefore.

The crowd that was originally against Princess Mira changed their slogans and began to oppose Duke Girard.

……

Chapter 644 Space Upgrade

This sudden change...

This was a great blow to Duke Girard.

This caught him completely off guard.

Although Duke Girard had learned beforehand that Princess Mira had hired a detective in the island nation.

He just saw it.

Since Zhiyong was still so young and no one had ever heard of him, Duke Girard didn't take him seriously.

But in less than two days...

That's when everything changed.

Duke Girard didn't pay much attention to it when it was just a rumor, but when the video was broadcast on television...

This made Duke Girard realize that all his plans had come to an end.

If none of these conditions apply.

The arrangement of the palace by Duke Girard.

This would allow him to easily take over the control of the state.

however.

It's impossible now.

After all, the Kingdom of Vesbania is an independent nation with not only administrative power but also an army.

Previously.

He can seize power before the army can react.

The army obeys only the king of the country.

Who is the king?

They listen to whoever they want.

Duke Girard had also considered bribing high-ranking officers within the army.

But if he did that...

The assassination attempts on Queen Sacramento and Prince Gil will be exposed.

Queen Sacramento and Prince Gil, in particular, enjoy great prestige within the country.

therefore.

If the military finds out...

He killed Queen Sacra and Prince Gil, and the consequences were unimaginable to him.

However, the palace guards were relatively simple.

Because in normal times.
