I'm in Detective Conan, and the system has appointed Batman.

While Judy and Andre were preparing for the upcoming visit of the Queen of the Kingdom of Vesbania to Tokyo, James sat in his executive chair, thoughtfully stroking his chin.

Come to think of it, it's been a while since he last contacted Shuichi Akai.

I wonder how well Shuichi Akai is doing with his covert identity.

Should we call and contact them?

……

At this very moment, at a military base of the United States near Tokyo.

Officer Kuvatrobagina frowned subconsciously, sensing something was amiss, as if someone was talking badly about him behind his back. But no matter how hard he thought about it, he couldn't imagine who would be talking about him at this time.

In most people's eyes, he should be dead by now.

Could it be that cheapskate mom again?

At the card table, the other high-ranking officers from the garrison who were playing cards looked up at Captain Cuvatro with some doubt in their eyes, while the high-ranking officer from the garrison who was on good terms with him subconsciously teased him.

"So, you got nagged by that little girl again?"

Kuvatrobagina: ?

Kuvatro's face darkened, and he immediately said...

"I've told you this many times before."

"I'm not a lolicon."

"I just felt the warmth of motherhood from that little girl."

"That's the woman who could be my mother!"

The other high-ranking officers from the military bases at the card table immediately burst into laughter.

They were just saying it; they didn't take it seriously.

The reason why there are rumors that Kuvatro is a lolicon in the military base is because when the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department contacted the military base last time to inform them of the details of Kuvatro's assistance.

Because Takagi Wataru, who was in charge of liaison at the time, casually mentioned it, the garrison soldier in charge of the call took it to heart.

Because it was so amusing, it was brought up as a casual conversation over tea.

As a result, the news spread like wildfire, eventually reaching the ears of the high command at the military base. Consequently, Kuvatro inexplicably rose from a mid-level position to become part of the high-ranking officers.

Although he himself didn't know what was going on, he figured he might as well give it a try since it was useful.

After all, he has always been a pragmatist.

Besides, even if he can't use this identity anymore, he can still be Officer Char Aznabry of the International Criminal Court.

He had no worries about a false identity that could be discarded at any time.

Kuvatrobagina took a sip of coffee, his gaze inadvertently sweeping over the people at the card table.

He was already certain in his mind which of the people at the card table was an insider of that mysterious criminal organization connected to the Black Organization.

Next, all that's needed is for that guy to contact the other members of that mysterious criminal organization again.

He could then catch them red-handed.

Chapter 1315 The Shadow Cabinet

The actions of the Japanese Public Security Bureau remain as disgraceful as ever.

Illegal detention and torture.

Using one's own colleagues as shields and bait.

Even setting aside his particular prejudice against the Japanese Public Security Bureau, he still felt that the Japanese Public Security Bureau was being incredibly shameless at this moment, but now was not the time to turn against them.

Tokyo District Public Prosecutor's Office.

He is currently the chief prosecutor of the Public Security Department of the Procuratorate.

Makoto Kusakabe, through his friend in the Japanese Public Security Bureau, has learned the full details of what happened last night, including information about Pisco.

He also knew that another member of the criminal organization, who had been used as bait to lure others, had been taken back to the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department.

As for whether the next step will be another transfer or a secret trial, he doesn't have access to that level of information yet.

If the Japanese Public Security Bureau continues operating this way, sooner or later Tokyo will be turned into a complete mess by them.

The only thing that gave Makoto Kusakabe a little comfort was that Batman had returned to Tokyo.

As Batman's partner, Makoto Kusakabe naturally knew Batman's true identity and was also aware that Chen En's previous departure from Tokyo was mostly to avoid suspicion and prevent others from obtaining evidence that he was Batman.

Now that Chen En has returned to Tokyo, it's likely he won't be leaving Tokyo for quite some time.

Unless someone finds another opportunity to uncover concrete evidence that could prove his true identity.

"...It's really easy to get things done with the backing of the Suzuki Group."

Thinking of this, Makoto Kusakabe couldn't help but sigh.

As the most powerful conglomerate in the Kanto region in terms of public image.

It is one of the most powerful forces in all of Japan.

With the Suzuki Group as his backing, Chen En will hardly encounter any obstacles, whether he is developing his Chen En Enterprises or acting as Batman, in addition to his own outstanding abilities.

This led to the situation where Kusakabe Makoto originally thought he could complement Chen En.

Now he has to admit that during the time he was focusing on his own development, Chen En had surpassed him, his partner, in every way, and he could hardly help Chen En anymore.

The only consolation is that Chen En doesn't seem to look down on him as a friend.

Although the frequency of contact has gradually decreased.

However, Chen En continued to provide Kusakabe Makoto with all the help he needed, to the point that Kusakabe Makoto has now developed considerable influence in high-level circles in Tokyo and within the Japanese Public Security Bureau.

If he were in Chen En's shoes, he might not have been able to do as well as Chen En.

However, while Prosecutor Kusakabe was still pondering how to further gather concrete evidence of the existence of the Shadow Cabinet, and thoroughly expose this large and mysterious criminal organization to the public, thus bringing the entire Shadow Cabinet to trial.

A familiar voice sounded from the side.

"Prosecutor Kusakabe, have there been any problems with the Ministry of Public Security lately?"

Makoto Kusakabe subconsciously raised his head to look at the newcomer.

At this moment, standing before him was none other than Nakamori Aoiko, another renowned prosecutor within the Tokyo District Public Prosecutors Office, with whom he had previously established a cooperative relationship.

Unlike her muddle-headed husband.

Nakamori Aoko's career in the Criminal Investigation Department is thriving, and she could very well succeed the aging Prosecutor General as the new Prosecutor General.

Whether in terms of ability or experience, they are truly far beyond the average person.

Even the prosecutor with overseas study experience, the Madonna of the world, Reiko Kujo, cannot compare to her.

However, as far as he knew, Nakamori Aoiko did not seem to pay much attention to matters concerning the Japanese Public Security Bureau, and her cooperation with him was only to ensure that some case information could be shared between the Criminal Investigation Department and the Public Security Department to facilitate case handling.

Why are you only now inquiring about matters concerning the Ministry of Public Security?

As if noticing the confusion in Makoto Kusakabe's eyes, Aoko Nakamori quickly offered an explanation.

"Prosecutor Kusakabe, you may not have noticed yet..."

“Yesterday’s operation involved all the criminal investigation officers, including the Second Investigation Division, which is my husband Ginzo Nakamori’s team, so I was a little worried.”

"I'd like to ask the Japanese Public Security Bureau if there will be any further actions requiring the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department."

Upon hearing this, Kusakabe Makoto immediately came to his senses.

That's not entirely untrue.

Last night, all the officers in the Criminal Investigation Department were mobilized.

The Second Investigation Division, where Nakamori Ginzo worked, was naturally included.

However, since this was not a small-scale operation like capturing Kaito Kid, Inspector Nakamori had no say and did not perform well, so Kusakabe Makoto subconsciously ignored him.

When Nakamori Aoko mentioned it, he suddenly remembered that Nakamori Ginzo had also participated in this operation.

Kusakabe Makoto immediately said.

"If nothing unexpected happens, it should happen within the next week, or even within three to five days."

"The Japanese Public Security Bureau will definitely mobilize the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department's forces again to deal with some troublesome criminals. If I'm not mistaken, it should be related to the yakuza group known as the Ravens and the criminal organization behind the Ravens."

"Of course, please don't mention this matter to outsiders, Prosecutor Nakamori."

The top prosecutor from the Ministry of Public Security subconsciously fiddled with the coin in his pocket before speaking.

"Although this matter is an open secret among prosecutors in our Ministry of Public Security and members of the Japanese Public Security Bureau, it has not yet been made public to the Criminal Investigation Department and the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department."

"Therefore, you'd better just give Inspector Nakamori a heads-up and tell him not to mention it to outsiders."

...Is the Japanese Public Security Bureau really going to mobilize the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department for another operation so soon?

A hint of surprise appeared in Nakamori Aoko's eyes.

Isn't this frequency a bit too much...?

She was different from Inspector Nakamori, who had previously left Tokyo to spend a day or two in Hakodate.

I only visited Inspector Nakamori once, when he was seriously injured, and then rushed back to Tokyo to continue my official duties. Therefore, I am quite familiar with the situation in Tokyo.

Although Tokyo had indeed been plagued by a series of problems before.

However, situations like this, where the Japanese Public Security Bureau and the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department are dispatched simultaneously, usually only occur once a week, or even once every two weeks. The fact that it is happening two or three times a week is extremely frequent.

It's unimaginable what Tokyo would be like if Batman weren't there.

Nakamori Aoko sighed and finally said.

“I know about this matter. I’m sorry to trouble Prosecutor Kusakabe this time.”

After asking the question, she turned and left.

It was as if they didn't want others to suspect that the information had leaked from Kusakabe.
