The cross-dressing master in the world of Detective Conan

Kaoru Kazama didn't understand their tastes and aesthetics. At the very least, he couldn't understand how Yumi could be interested in Takagi when he was such a "handsome guy" on the side.

"Do you want me to go get it for you?"

Seeing that Kazama Kaoru seemed to have fallen into an odd silence, Sato assumed he was embarrassed, so he volunteered to help him get his cosmetics. Anyway, there was still some time before the patrol started, and the Traffic Division wasn't far from the First Investigation Division.

"No, no, no need, I'll go find her myself."

Although that's what he said to Sato, Kazama Kaoru didn't want to go through all that trouble and just let the system do it for her.

"System, can you help me achieve the makeup look I want? I'm sure you won't just stand by and do nothing, right?"

System: "No problem. This system is a professional crossdressing system. It will not make any mistakes in its professional field. You can rest assured, host."

Upon hearing the system's words, Kaoru Kazama didn't think twice and found a secluded spot to activate the system's makeup mode.

Makeup, especially Japanese makeup techniques, has long been known as one of the four great sorceries of Asia. The reason for this terrifying reputation is simply because some girls look so different before and after makeup.

This thing is like a cosmetic surgery effect for girls who aren't very confident about their looks. But for someone like Kazama Kaoru, who is naturally beautiful and whose appearance has been maxed out by the system, wearing a more glamorous makeup is just to highlight and amplify certain of her strengths.

"Relax, relax. Wearing makeup is nothing. In South Korea, even men wear makeup. If you don't wear makeup, you'll be considered disrespectful. I'm doing this to respect my job."

After silently repeating to himself countless times that this was to avoid dying from kidney deficiency, Kazama Kaoru finally adjusted his mindset. Actually, being forced to wear women's clothing by the system for so long had greatly strengthened his mental fortitude. At least he no longer felt any cognitive dissonance when being treated as a girl. He didn't know whether this was a good thing or a bad thing.

The system's technique is quite fast. I don't know how effective it is, but it's definitely faster than those makeup artists, so Kazama Kaoru doesn't have to wait a long time.

"System, your makeup skills are absolutely terrifying."

Kazama Kaoru looked at her face. Even though she had only applied a little makeup, she looked completely different from before. If she was a perfect combination of beauty and heroism before, then the system's makeup had perfectly concealed Kazama Kaoru's heroism, giving her delicate face a natural charm. Any normal man would definitely lose control of himself upon seeing her.

"Xiao Xun, your makeup skills are amazing! I almost didn't recognize you."

Officer Sato was taken aback, not only by Kazama Kaoru's completely changed style, but also by the short time he spent putting on his makeup. You see, Kazama Kaoru had deliberately stayed in the bathroom for an extra ten minutes before coming out.

"If I had known you could do my makeup so quickly, I would have let you do it for me. You have no idea how much my mom nags me every day about not paying attention to my makeup. Heaven knows, making me sit obediently in front of the mirror for an hour is less satisfying than just having me fight a gangster."

After all, you can't do a job you're not qualified for. If you fall in love with a wild horse but don't have a grassland at home, you can't blame anyone else for what happens on the grassland in the future.

Chapter 21: Officer Sato, the King of Standing and Fighting

"Is this alright now? I should have just asked you to do my makeup, then I wouldn't have had to go through all this trouble."

Looking at her reflection in the mirror, even Kaoru Kazama, who always hated cross-dressing, couldn't help but succumb to her own beauty. After all, such stunning beauty is not something you can see just anywhere.

Remember that beautiful youth in Greek mythology who fell in love with himself after just one glance at his reflection in the river, and died in despair because his love was unrequited? That's the ultimate form of narcissism.

Of course, Kaoru Kazama wouldn't be that exaggerated, but the current situation at the Metropolitan Police Department shows just how destructive Kaoru Kazama would be if she wore makeup.

Within just three minutes, four of the colleagues who came out of the Metropolitan Police Department bumped into the pillars at the entrance, three lost their focus on the stairs and fell, and two others simply stood there motionless.

"Tsk tsk, it seems our Inspector Kazama is incredibly charming, she's practically a femme fatale."

Officer Sato even managed to crack a lame joke, making Kazama Kaoru feel like today was truly surreal.

But if he could even encounter something like using makeup to lure kidnappers, what else wouldn't happen? Anyway, he was already calm.

No matter what, it's much better than dying unconscious in the sage mode. Those who haven't experienced it have absolutely no idea what that feeling is like. In his previous life, he was also a "battle-hardened" otaku, but he still succumbed to the tyranny of the system boss.

"Alright, Miwako, it's getting late. Don't be surprised by my makeup. After all, I'm so good-looking, you should be used to it by now."

As expected, Sato just rolled his eyes at Kazama Kaoru when he heard this; narcissism is actually a pretty good way to change the subject.

"Okay, no problem. Since you're all ready, let's go."

Full of a sense of justice, Officer Sato was always enthusiastic about this kind of work that other seasoned veterans would avoid at all costs, and always hoped to run into a couple of petty thieves on the street.

In reality, despite the term "patrol," under such strict management, there are almost no people who dare to commit crimes on the street. Although the crime rate in this world is very high, most of the crimes are committed by highly intelligent individuals. This can be described as the high level of security allowing criminals to evolve, eliminating the few idiots who dare to commit crimes on the street.

Aside from this reason, Kaoru Kazama can't find any other way to explain why criminals in the Conan world are so fond of locked-room murders, a crime that is clearly a display of intelligence.

"Hey, isn't that Conan? Why is he out? I remember today is a school day, right?"

During their two patrols, they unsurprisingly encountered Conan, who was lurking suspiciously outside Ayumi's house. The reason it was unsurprising was that Kazama Kaoru had been searching for Conan directly using the mini-map.

To help Kazama Kaoru complete this crossdressing task, the system activated a new auxiliary function for him, which is probably a series of assistance for Kazama Kaoru's terrible sense of direction. This crossdressing system is actually not that easy.

Imitating the quest tracker and minimap in typical online games, a personal GPS was created for Kazama Kaoru. It can be said that now, as long as the target can be locked, there is basically no one that Kazama Kaoru cannot find.

"Hey, Officer Sato, Officer Kazama, what are you doing here? Has there been a murder here?"

When Conan saw Kazama Kaoru, he was visibly surprised. In his memory, this "female" police officer had always been cool and dressed in all black; why was she so... intimidating today?

There's no way around it; this is the most fitting description for Conan, this low-EQ deduction maniac. Should we mourn for Ran? His inability to understand romance is a fatal flaw, the kind that can't be cured. Hoping this deduction maniac will suddenly become enlightened is less reliable than asking him to sing in tune.

"What, does our presence mean there will be murders wherever we go?"

It was rare for Sato to take a child's words so seriously, but Kazama Kaoru's expression turned strange. This was clearly a description of the Grim Reaper elementary school student in front of him.

"Stop trying to be clever, Conan. If you didn't skip class to come here, something must have happened. If you don't tell me, I'm calling your principal!"

Conan is good at everything, except he loves to show off. He always rushes into dangerous situations and always thinks he's doing others a favor by stopping them. But he's just a kid.

"Um, maybe we shouldn't do that. I already told Ms. Kobayashi that I came to visit Ayumi because she's sick."

He was worried that the sudden appearance of the police would endanger the kidnappers he had just managed to appease with lies. He had just used a voice changer to impersonate the doctor, saying he was coming to return the money, which tempted the kidnappers who had already ransacked Ayumi Yoshida's house but were still not satisfied.

Sometimes it is this kind of thinking, this greedy desire to have more, that leads people step by step into an abyss.

However, the arrival of Kazama Kaoru and Sato obviously disrupted the kid's plan. Fortunately, they were not patrolling in police cars, otherwise, if a police siren had sounded downstairs, it would have been easy to imagine what the kidnapper would have done.

"I heard there was a burglar roaming around Mihua Street. Judging from your expression and actions, your classmate must have been kidnapped. Which one? The little girl or the two little boys?"

Kazama Kaoru's words immediately changed Conan's expression. He had originally planned to fool him, but he was seen through. The thought that Kazama Kaoru was an undercover agent of the Black Organization resurfaced in his mind.

"Yes, that's right, it's Ayumi. Ayumi took the day off today because of a cold, and as a result, she was robbed in her home. Fortunately, Ayumi is hiding in the closet, so the robbers didn't find her."

"So you're planning to go rescue her alone? You're really reckless."

Unsurprisingly, Conan's behavior infuriated Officer Sato, who was full of a sense of justice. In her opinion, it was very dangerous for a seven-year-old child like Conan to think about fighting the criminals himself and not even tell the police.

However, it seems that when Inspector Sato first met Shinichi Kudo, he wasn't too happy about the boy getting involved in the case. After all, who wants to be lectured by a teenager in their field of expertise?

"Alright then, I'll take you up now. I had Professor Agasa make a phone call earlier, pretending to be here to return the money, and then stall the robber and take the opportunity to beat him up. Ayumi said that the robber seemed to only have a baseball bat with him."

Upon hearing that the assailant only carried a baseball bat, Officer Sato immediately put away the revolver he had drawn. This showed his absolute confidence in his own fighting ability. Without using firearms, Officer Sato was confident that he could fight anyone to the bitter end.

Meanwhile, Kaoru Kazama was still worrying about how to complete the cross-dressing mission issued by the system while preserving her integrity. That gun modification seemed pretty good; as a police officer, her marksmanship had to be decent.

Chapter 22 Big sister, why are you just like Ayumi?

And so, under the coercion and enticement of Sato and Kazama Kaoru, Conan had no choice but to reluctantly lead them upstairs with a deadpan expression.

However, Conan was a little worried because he hadn't asked Professor Agasa to make the call before; he had disguised himself using a voice changer. Now, in front of the police, especially in front of Kazama Kaoru, whom he suspected was an undercover agent for the Black Organization, how could he possibly pull out a voice changer?

"Don't make a sound. When that robber comes out, just knock him unconscious."

Kaoru Kazama instructed Conan, knowing that this kid was extraordinary, but he should at least show some respect, since he didn't know that Conan was Shinichi Kudo.

He had been thinking about when to reveal his true colors to Conan, otherwise he might accidentally call out Shinichi Kudo one day and cause trouble.

Ayumi and her family lived in a building in the western part of Mihua Street. It looked quite nice from the outside. At least the design was considered very trendy for that era, and at that time, there weren't many residential buildings with elevators.

Although it's just renting instead of buying, it's still quite a lot of money. After all, buying a house isn't very popular here; in comparison, there are actually more people renting, like Kaoru Kazama herself.

"Tuk Tuk Tuk"

Ayumi Yoshida's home is located on the 32nd floor of this building, which is quite high. Even taking the elevator took quite a while. After arriving at their destination, Officer Sato knocked on the door, while Kaoru Kazama waited on the side, ready to pounce.

There was no other way; to complete the system's mission, the only option was to deliver a flying kick before the thug was violently taken down by Sato, thus fulfilling the mission of subtly revealing the underwear.

However, Kaoru Kazama believes that the likely outcome of doing so would be that the criminals would realize their identity as a cute girl with a large penis, and then faint from excessive fear.

After Sato knocked on the door, there was no sound from inside, which made Conan a little nervous. He was worried that the culprit had discovered Ayumi and that was why he hadn't noticed the knocking.

However, Kaoru Kazama, with his exceptional hearing, noticed that the unfortunate thug was slowly approaching the door. Perhaps out of guilt, he remained silent, fearing that the person coming to return the money would notice something amiss. Thus, the two groups, each with their own agendas, were about to make their formal encounter.

"Click"

With a soft sound, the security door was turned open. The instant he saw the door open a crack, Kaoru Kazama swiftly wedged the baton he had taken from the car into the middle of the door and then gave it a hard yank.

Because the thief was so vigilant, even though he couldn't see who was coming through the peephole, he didn't carelessly open the door. Sure enough, when he pried it open, a "crackling" sound came from inside.

Kazama Kaoru was right; the cunning thief had indeed hung a security chain on the inside of the door.

How ironic that the thief had put up a security chain, blocking the two police officers outside who were there to catch him.

"Sato, shoot and break the security chain!"

Almost as soon as he finished speaking, Sato's revolver was already aimed at the silver chain. In the horrified gaze of the thief, the anti-theft chain snapped instantly and fell to the ground with a clatter.

"That damn bastard, he's got quite a few tricks up his sleeve."

Kaoru Kazama kicked the door open hard, causing Conan's lips to twitch violently. He was probably surprised that the female police officers in the Metropolitan Police Department were all so fierce.

Although the series of actions sounded slow, they were actually completed in the blink of an eye, leaving the man at the door standing there dumbfounded.

"Using beauty to subdue the thugs, mission progress is 50% complete."

"Just one more step."

When he heard that the mission was 50% complete, Kazama Kaoru already knew what was going on. All that was left was the perverted request for his underwear to be partially exposed. Although he felt very awkward, he wouldn't have been unable to accept the system's suggestion to beat the thug to death with its big penis. However, the method made him feel strangely violated.

Shaking off the jumbled thoughts in her mind, Kazama Kaoru leaped into the air and delivered a powerful knee strike, aiming for the assailant's chin. However, because Kazama Kaoru was wearing an office lady dress, the assailant, who was slowly falling to the ground after the knee strike, should have been able to see it slightly.

Suppressing the nausea rising in his chest, he used all his strength to slam his head hard into the thug's chin.

The system only said it was "seemingly revealed," so if he revealed himself but the thugs were unconscious and didn't see it, then it's not his fault.

The worst off was actually the thug. He only felt the whooshing sound of the wind in his ears, followed by a sweet fragrance, like the scent of a young girl. Before he could even enjoy it, a force as strong as a small truck hit him. He rolled his eyes back and fell to the ground unconscious. He had no chance to admire the panties.

"System: Host, this constitutes cheating."

Kazama Kaoru: But he could clearly see that spot, it's just that he failed him and fainted, so it's not my fault.

"system:......"

Kaoru Kazama, preoccupied with arguing with the system, didn't notice the strange looks Conan and Sato were giving him.

"Xiao Xun, did something happen to you? Why were you so violent today? Did someone offend you?"

Sato was also a bit dumbfounded. She, who was known for her violence, was actually frightened by Kazama Kaoru's actions. It was easy to imagine how fierce he had been just now.

Not to mention Conan, he's become incredibly cowardly, trying his best to minimize his presence and be ignored. He vaguely senses that this violent policewoman seems to dislike him, and he doesn't want to be hit like that.

"Oh, it's nothing. I was just worried about the little girl's safety, so I went a little overboard."
