"What will you do with Vodka and the others next?"

Upon hearing this, Batman answered without turning his head.

"They will be detained for now. Once this matter is resolved, I will transfer them to the Japanese Public Security Bureau."

"Afterwards, the Japanese Public Security Bureau will most likely complete its investigation and send him to the Tokyo Metropolitan Court for trial. Although according to the country's sentencing standards, the death penalty will certainly not be approved, but at least a sentence of several decades will be imposed."

"I will send him to Arkham Prison after that, and I will personally oversee him then."

Arkham Prison?

Ireland nodded slightly upon hearing this.

The buildings in the Arkham complex were all funded and constructed by the Suzuki Foundation.

However, for the various organizations in Tokyo, the relationship between Batman and the Suzuki Foundation is quite close, so no one would doubt it. They would probably all assume that the people Batman catches are sent to Arkham Prison.

This country allows private prisons to exist.

Therefore, the Suzuki Foundation was willing to provide funds to help the authorities improve the prison situation and alleviate the already strained prison space, so the authorities naturally had no reason to refuse and would most likely give them face in this regard.

After all, it's hard to say what would happen if these vicious criminals were sent to other prisons.

It's either a prison break or being silenced. At least the Suzuki Group has Batman keeping an eye on things, so at least they can save face.

After the operation concludes, Ireland will be transferred by the Japanese Public Security Bureau to the Tokyo Trial Court for trial, and then transferred to Arkham Prison to care for Piske at the adjacent Arkham Sanatorium under the guise of a caregiver.

Now that Batman has said this, Ireland can rest assured.

He immediately said seriously.

"Batman, there's something I need to tell you."

Upon hearing this, Chen En slowly turned his head to look at Ireland and asked in a hoarse and low voice.

What do you want to tell me?

Upon hearing this, Ireland affirmed.

"I've already made contact with rum."

"Next, I will head to the Black Organization's base outside Tokyo tonight. I will use the power of rum to take back the position of the head of the Black Organization in Tokyo."

"...Originally, I wanted to hide this from you, but I guess you probably already figured it out."

"So I don't intend to hide these things from you."

...Is this the Black Organization's base outside Tokyo?

Upon hearing this, Chen En's eyes narrowed slightly.

When it comes to bases outside the city, Chen En's first impression is of the armed helicopter that Ireland once used.

The armed helicopter in question was not the same one used by Gin to straf the Tokyo Tower, indicating that there were at least multiple armed helicopters at the base outside the city. Considering the Raven Society's situation, there would also be a large amount of weaponry.

The various types of weapons that keep appearing in Tokyo despite repeated bans likely originate from bases outside the city.

Chen En simply said in a low voice.

"So, you're planning to tell me the location of the base outside the city?"

He felt that Ireland's meaning was probably not that simple.

And just as Chen En had thought, Ireland continued.

"...Rum has ultimately been kind to me, just as Pisco has been to me."

“If Rum hasn’t betrayed me, I won’t betray Rum either. Therefore, I won’t tell you the location of the base outside the city… However, I will leave a message for Death God.”

Ireland spoke seriously at this point.

"Although I don't think rum will give up its influence in the Tokyo area."

"My exposure here is only because Gin installed surveillance cameras here, not because Rum leaked my location. However, I still can't help but wonder what would happen if Rum really betrayed me."

"If that's really the case, then going to the base outside the city to meet up with the people sent by Rum will be a dead end... So if I go to meet up with Rum tonight and don't come back."

"Then Death God will tell you the location of the base outside the city, as well as the information I know about rum..."

Upon hearing this, Chen En frowned slightly.

He has never been one to easily trust others.

Not to mention the high-ranking members of the Black Organization, such as Rum.

If he were in this situation, he would most likely take double precautions to ensure that rum cannot and will not be able to kill him, rather than entrusting his life to rum's mercy.

That's incredibly stupid.

If he didn't go with them, and Ireland were indeed ambushed by the Rummen at the base outside the city, he would be doomed and there would be no way he could escape...

But perhaps Ireland is just like that.

If Ireland had made any other choice, then he probably wouldn't have used Pisco as bait to lure Ireland out in the first place; success or failure is all fate.

Hearing this, Chen En nodded slightly and finally spoke.

"...I will wait for the message from the God of Death."

He never lies.

Hearing this, Ireland finally breathed a sigh of relief and left, exhausted.

He still needed to deal with the Raven Society's affairs, remove the bullet, perform some simple treatment, and then prepare for his solo meeting that evening.

However, as Ireland disappeared from Chen En's sight, Chen En only murmured a sentence to himself.

I did say I would wait for Luo Cheng's message.

But it didn't say that I wouldn't go to the base outside the city with you that night.

Upon initial contact, Ireland was already equipped with several locators and listening devices, ensuring that Chengen could obtain the location of the base outside the city and understand their conversations immediately.

Batman never trusts anyone easily.

Always prepare for both possibilities.

Chen En lingered there briefly before disappearing into the shadows. A short while later, the member of the Japanese Public Security Bureau's gold watch group, the Onmyoji Ashiya, appeared in the corridor along with Hakuba Saguru and the others.

The Onmyoji was slightly taken aback by the current situation.

He couldn't understand who could take down everyone in the corridor in such a short time, especially with such dangerous weapons as submachine guns lying around them, and who were clearly well-trained.

If the investigators hadn't notified them to come and clean up the area, they wouldn't even have known a battle had taken place there.

Because the surrounding residents didn't hear a single gunshot, and there were no bullet marks on the corridor, either the battle ended in a very short time and these people didn't have time to fire, or the gunfire was so few that it was negligible.

However, the Gold Watch Group members and Hakuba Saguru, who had previously dealt with Batman, immediately understood the situation.

These are clearly traces left by Batman.

Hakuba Saguru crouched down, his gaze falling on Vodka, whose body was still twitching as if he had just been electrocuted. He narrowed his eyes slightly and then spoke.

"This looks like a codenamed member of the Black Organization, doesn't it?"

Hearing this, the members of the Gold Watch Group were somewhat surprised, then turned to look at Hakuba Saguru and asked.

How did you figure that out?

The famous detective, who had returned from studying in England, simply stood up slowly and answered mysteriously.

"I naturally have my own sources of intelligence."

Actually, it was just that Conan told him about the codenamed members he knew during their last interaction.

The somewhat large-looking codenamed member in front of us is undoubtedly the Vodka that Conan described.

As members of the Gold Watch Group, who were brought to Tokyo from elsewhere by Rei Furuya, were naturally very familiar with it, since vodka's characteristics were so distinctive that it was hard not to recognize it.

Especially knowing that Gin has returned to Tokyo.

Although the relationship between Investigator and Batman is not exactly equal.

However, Batman would also occasionally reveal some information about Tokyo to Inspector Li, so Inspector Li knew that Gin was currently in charge of the Black Organization in Tokyo.

However, the investigator withheld the information from others in the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department, only telling those he was close to.

Members of the Gold Watch Group and Onmyoji Ashiya were prominently featured.

The same applies to Hakuba Saguru.

Although at first the investigators were only curious about Hakuba Saguru, the famous detective who had returned from studying in England, and were surprised by his abilities, they did not think that Hakuba Saguru was someone who could reveal such information.

After all, he's just a high school student. If word gets out, things could get really bad.

However, after Hakuba Saguru suddenly claimed that he could find a great magician, the investigator's impression of Hakuba Saguru changed again.

All I can say is that there's an incredibly powerful high school student who managed to summon a great magician to my office as an investigative officer in the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department! This is no ordinary high school student!

The investigators naturally had no intention of hiding information from Hakuba Saguru.

However, he didn't tell Hakuba Saguru all the information, including the matter of vodka, which is why the Gold Watch Group members were surprised when they heard Hakuba Saguru recognize vodka at a glance.

The member of the gold watch group took out a cigarette from his pocket, lit it, and then spoke.

"Get everyone in the car and take them to the usual spot."

However, the other Japanese police officers who came with him, from the Public Security Planning Department, immediately got to work.

This old location could not possibly be a detention area of ​​the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department.

As it turns out, the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department, despite being the core headquarters of the Japanese Public Security Bureau, is treated like a public toilet by members of the Black Organization and those with secret methods—they can come and go as they please.

Moreover, if the man were brought back to the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department, then the higher-ups in the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department would know that Vodka had been arrested by the Japanese Public Security Bureau. If that mole within the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department leaked this information, things would get very bad.

They can't cause trouble for Batman.

Therefore, following the investigator's advice, they decided to send the person directly to the secret detention area.

They will not contact anyone else at the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department headquarters. After the incident here is over, they will transport the person back to the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department, open a case for investigation, and then transfer them to Makoto Kusakabe for trial.

Sometimes, in order to uphold justice, it is unavoidable to resort to some illegal means.

Japanese public security officers have the right to conduct illegal operations.

At this point, the gold watch group member glanced at Hakuba Saguru.

He just realized that it wasn't really appropriate for Hakuba Saguru, the son of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department, to say this in front of him. What if he turned out to be a righteous person like the other high school detectives?
