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

There was no guarantee that the investigator would be informed of this through any other means; he felt he had to meet with him in person.

I'm sure the investigators will be very interested in this information.

Chapter 1339

What are these people doing?

"I don't know, maybe it's some kind of shamanic ritual... It's said that you can find the real mastermind behind this series of events through this kind of shamanic ritual, but it doesn't seem very reliable."

"It's not very reliable, why?"

"If you can find the culprit behind a series of crimes by performing shamanic rituals, then why not use the same method to find the high-ranking mole within the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department?"

"...How come I didn't think of that? Your IQ is practically 360."

Outside the room specifically for Lorenzo and the Onmyoji to use mysterious rituals to detect the whereabouts of the Black Mask.

Two close associates of the police officers in the Public Security Planning Division were whispering outside.

If it weren't for the fact that the situation that previously occurred in the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department's detention area was too bizarre.

They probably would never believe that demons, monsters, or magical artifacts existed in this world. At this point, they might even start to wonder if the investigator had lost his mind and kicked the two of them out.

However, just as the two were whispering to each other, a sound of footsteps approached from afar.

The man said calmly.

"We've already tried, but there's no specific indication, and we don't have any magical items, so we can't use this to divine who it is."

The two young Japanese police officers who had been whispering to each other immediately stood at attention upon hearing this.

Because the visitor was none other than the detective from the Public Security Planning Department.

He was only accompanied by Hakuba Saguru.

The famous detective, who had returned from studying in England, stood by the glass, watching Lorenzo inside, who seemed to be performing a shamanic ritual, and the onmyoji who was holding some unknown object and talking incoherently.

For a moment, I felt like the mysterious side of this world was truly doomed.

At this moment, he couldn't help but recall the girl he had met at Ekoda High School, Koizumi Akako, who was known as the witch.

Although Koizumi Akako never demonstrated it to him, it could be considered a witch's magical effect.

However, Hakuba Saguru always suspected that Koizumi Akako might not have mastered any high level of magic. Unfortunately, he always wanted to meet Koizumi Akako, but she always avoided him in private.

In addition, a series of events have occurred, which has prevented him from having a proper private talk with Koizumi Akako to this day.

He even asked Lorenzo for his opinion on Koizumi Akako.

Although Lorenzo did not go to see Koizumi Akako, he still told her without hesitation that there were very few great magicians in Tokyo who could compare to him, so the idea that a high school girl was a great magician was unfounded.

Do you really think that great magicians are mass-produced? Is this some kind of romance light novel worldview?

Hakuba Saguru was skeptical and postponed the matter, intending to check the situation later.

However, seeing the mysterious behavior of the Onmyoji and Lorenzo, he couldn't help but slightly raise the priority of finding Koizumi Akako to verify whether she actually had magical abilities.

If Lorenzo runs away again like before, then he will at least need to find someone who can act as a magic advisor.

Although he wasn't very close to Koizumi Akako, they were classmates for a few days at Ekoda High School.

Surely Koizumi Akako wouldn't be that heartless?

Furthermore, if Koizumi Akako is indeed a witch and a great magician, then the Red Witch who intervened in Canada and rescued him from the Spider and the Purple Witch is most likely Koizumi Akako herself.

Therefore, it can be inferred that Koizumi Akako is not a bad person at heart, and would still reluctantly lend a helping hand in such matters.

However, the investigator standing next to him had no idea what Hakuba Saguru was thinking.

He had great trust in the Onmyoji who came from the Onmyo Bureau.

Just as the Investigator absolutely trusts Hakuba Saguru and the Gold Watch Group members, he will absolutely support anyone he deems trustworthy, unless faced with unavoidable circumstances, he will not change his previous thoughts and actions.

At this moment, he simply stroked his chin and said, seemingly understanding but not quite.

"It seems you two are truly dedicated to your duties."

...?

Hakuba Saguru raised his head and glanced at the investigator, then lowered his head again.

Forget it, I won't talk to this know-it-all idiot.

Although he had only read a few introductory books on magic and had a superficial understanding of it, he was still much better than someone like Investigator Li, who couldn't understand anything at all.

However, while the investigator and Hakuba Saguru were still waiting for the people inside to finish their work...

A call from a member of the Gold Watch team quietly landed on the investigator's cell phone.

The investigator was immediately taken aback, knowing that the only person who could call him at this time was someone he had added to his special watchlist... It couldn't be Batman, since Batman used special communication devices to contact him.

He is a member of the gold watch group.

After briefly explaining the situation to Hakuba Saguru and the two Japanese Public Security officers beside him, he left the room, put his phone to his ear, pressed the answer button, and asked.

"What's wrong? What's the matter? Why did you have to call me at this time?"

"If I remember correctly, you should be in the secret detention area right now, right? Have you gotten any new developments from the interrogation there? If you don't have anything else to do, you should be heading straight back to the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department..."

"Is there something you can't tell me in person at the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department? Is it extremely urgent?"

When questioned by the investigators, the Gold Watch Group members simply replied earnestly.

No, it's not urgent.

"But it's important and dangerous."

"I hope we can have a proper talk in a place where absolutely no one else can overhear our conversation, otherwise, we might both end up in a very dangerous situation."

The investigator's heart slowed down slightly, and a look of undisguised surprise appeared in his eyes as he asked.

What information is so important?

The gold watch group members only spoke vaguely.

"It's related to that person."

...Is it related to vodka?

Could this be the true identity of that high-ranking mole within the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department? But if that high-ranking mole had the resources to eliminate him, an investigator, then he wouldn't be alive and kicking now.

This information shouldn't be that dangerous...

However, since the gold watch group member made this judgment, he believed his friend's opinion.

The investigator pushed the door open again and spoke to Hakuba Saguru.

"I have some things to take care of, could you please take a look at the situation here?"

Upon hearing this, Hakuba Saguru immediately turned his head to look at the undercover investigator at the door. Although his eyes also showed a hint of surprise, he didn't say much, but simply nodded slightly and then spoke.

"I understand, you can go now."

The sound of the investigator's footsteps disappeared into the audible range of the corridor.

Hakuba Saguru subconsciously rubbed his chin with his fingers, pondering what kind of reason the Investigator could have gone out... but it must be because the Gold Watch Group members had obtained some new information.

The source of the latest information that the members of the gold watch group could obtain was obviously the two mysterious shamans standing next to them.

In addition, there is Vodka, a codenamed member of the Black Organization, who is being held in a secret detention area.

What important information did the vodka reveal that could lure away two high-ranking officials from the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department and the Japanese Public Security Bureau?

Is this the headquarters of the Black Organization?

Forget it, there's no point in thinking about this...

He took out his phone and glanced at it. Finding that no anonymous messages had been sent yet, he shook his head slightly, put the phone back, and then helplessly watched the two eccentric people performing their rituals.

He was waiting for news from someone.

News of Chen En.

He was arguably the first person to discover Batman's true identity, and he knew Batman inside and out. Therefore, he was well aware that Batman had methods to deal with and detect the mystical side.

Therefore, after learning about the situation, he immediately informed Chen En, hoping that Chen En could reply. Chen En also said that if he found anything, he would reply immediately.

And now... Chen En hasn't replied yet.

Perhaps they haven't found any trace of the Black Mask even over there yet?

……

Koizumi Akako's residence.

The Scarlet Witch is one of the Seven Witches.

Koizumi Akako's skill level among magicians can be considered among the highest, and in terms of magical power, she can be regarded as one of the iconic figures with incredible strength.

And now Chen En is right next to Koizumi Akako.

He concealed himself beneath the cape of his Batman suit, his gaze fixed on the bubbling magic pool in front of Koizumi Akako, waiting for her divination magic to end.

After learning more about Black Mask, Chen En immediately contacted Koizumi Akako.

At that time, Koizumi Akako said she had other things to do, so she temporarily put the matter aside. Now that Koizumi Akako has finished her work, he naturally went to Koizumi Akako's side in person to wait for her to complete the divination.

Of course, he wasn't there to urge Koizumi Akako to complete the divination, but rather to resolve the trouble she would encounter next...

Magicians make pacts with demons and pay a price in order to gain magical power.

Koizumi Akako's divination magic was essentially a process of summoning the Demon King of Hell, asking him questions about what she wanted to know, and then sending him back to Hell.

With her magic, it shouldn't be difficult for her to do this.

They could even forcibly send the Demon King back before he even pays the price.

The problem is that Koizumi Akako has done this kind of thing far too often, and every time she takes advantage of Lucifer, the fallen demon king. Last time, Lucifer even made it clear that if Koizumi Akako does this again, he will strike hard.

Although Lucifer, without a physical body and with incomplete power, was not a formidable opponent in front of Koizumi Akako.

But if Lucifer really went mad, it wouldn't be a problem for him to destroy Koizumi Akako's mansion, even with Koizumi Akako's spell of sending him back to hell.
