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

"I thought you wouldn't need to take a helicopter for something like this."

Gold Watch Group Members: ?

You have a prejudice against the Japanese Public Security Bureau.

The members of the gold watch group couldn't help but darken their faces, but they asked again.

"Hakuba Saguru, what are you doing here?"

"If I remember correctly, the special forces should have blocked all the entrances and exits of this building."

"Only Japanese public security personnel should be able to enter with special privileges. Even if you use the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department's channels, you still can't get in, right?"

Upon hearing this, Hakuba Saguru simply shrugged and then said...

"Generally speaking, that is indeed the case."

Upon hearing this, the members of the Gold Watch Group were stunned, because they didn't know what Hakuba Saguru meant.

What do you mean by "generally speaking, that's really the case"? Isn't this the general situation now?

I have no idea what else might be going on!

Before he could finish speaking, as if drawn by Hakuba Saguru's voice, a person peeked out from the next room and looked at the Gold Watch Group members.

The man looked around for a moment, then darted out and pointed at the gold watch group members and Kazami Yuya next to him, shouting loudly.

"Ah? It's you guys!"

"Hey, aren't you the same Japanese police officers who came to the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department earlier?"

How did you get in?

Shouldn't I be asking you this question?

The gold watch group member frowned slightly, but Kazami Yuya next to him immediately recognized who the other person was.

He whispered a reminder in the ears of the gold watch group members.

"This is an inspector from the Second Investigation Division."

"If I remember correctly, it should be Nakamori Ginzo, the star police officer who specializes in dealing with Kaito Kid."

The gold watch group members, who had no prior impression of Nakamori Ginzo, nodded in realization upon hearing this, then became even more puzzled.

so what?

Regardless of whether he's from Investigation Division 1, Investigation Division 2, or Investigation Division 3, whether he's a star officer or an ordinary officer, what gives him the right to be in here?

Could it be that because he's famous, the special forces let him in directly?

Are you kidding me? If that's really the case, then he'll have to go to the special forces' superiors and report this special forces unit.

Make sure their salary assessment looks good this month!

"...Stop giving me that nonsense. I am a member of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department's Japanese Public Security Bureau. This is my identification. Please show me your identification now."

"This hotel will be where Princess Mirajuliette Vesbaland of the Kingdom of Vesbania will stay."

“We, the Japanese Public Security Bureau, are here at the hotel to ensure the personal safety of Princess Mila. If anything were to happen to Princess Mila, it would be a major issue affecting international relations between our two countries. Please explain your purpose immediately, or I will expel you.”

The long-winded speech from the gold watch group members put Nakamori Ginzo under considerable pressure.

Nakamori Ginzo coughed twice before speaking.

How can you talk like that?

"You're making it sound like we didn't come here for Princess Mira."

"To tell you the truth, we were invited by the Duke of the Kingdom of Vesbania to come to this hotel specifically to oversee the security of the Vesbania Gem."

"Because according to the Duke of the Kingdom of Vesbania, the infamous phantom thief Lupin III might be eyeing this Vesbania gem, so he specifically asked us police officers, who have experience dealing with phantom thieves, to come and help."

"Although it wasn't Phantom Thief Kid who came this time, but Phantom Thief Lupin III, it doesn't matter to me. After all, I'm a genius detective!"

At this point, Nakamori Ginzo couldn't help but burst into laughter, which made him seem a little unreliable.

Regarding this statement.

The member of the gold watch team raised an eyebrow slightly, then took out his phone and dialed the number of the investigator, asking directly.

"Investigator Li, I'd like to ask if the delegation from the Kingdom of Vesbania will be carrying any Vesbania gems this time?"

“I met Inspector Ginzo Nakamori from the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department’s Second Investigation Division at the hotel. He told us that they had been invited by the Duke of the Kingdom of Vesbania to be responsible for the security of the Vesbania Gemstone inside the hotel.”

Is this true?

The investigator's voice on the other end of the phone was somewhat muffled, as if he were moving at high speed, and his answers were indistinct.

"That's right, it really happened."

"But did the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department arrive so early? I thought they would arrive after you."

"As I predicted, they should come to the Japanese Public Security Bureau first, obtain the necessary permits, and then enter..."

"Was Superintendent White Horse's son also present?"

After receiving an affirmative answer, the investigator continued.

"It must have been Superintendent General Hakuba who used his connections."

"...In short, it's not possible to expel the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department personnel for the time being. I'm afraid you'll have to cooperate with them to protect Princess Mira and the Vesbania Gem."

That would be very troublesome.

The member of the gold watch group rubbed his forehead, finally accepting the somewhat irritating fact, before speaking.

"Alright, since that's the case, I won't interfere with your efforts to protect the Vespania Gem."

"However, if the Tokyo Grand Hotel were to be attacked by unidentified terrorists, I would require the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department officers to follow my orders and take action immediately."

"Otherwise, if the actions of your Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department officers result in unnecessary casualties or losses in this operation, then I will hold you accountable to the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department."

Do you understand?

That statement sounds a little dangerous... It gives the impression that if this operation fails, the blame will fall on the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department.

Nakamori Ginzo thought to himself, "What do you mean?"

You wicked, out-of-town Japanese police brat, I'll personally...

Although Nakamori Ginzo harbored resentment in his heart, he didn't say it out loud. He just glanced at Hakuba Saguru beside him, and when he saw Hakuba Saguru nod, he spoke.

"Then let's leave it at that."

"However, the reverse is also true. If your people interfere with our efforts to protect the Vesbania Gem, then we will also raise objections with the Duke of the Kingdom of Vesbania!"

After both parties reached an agreement.

The Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department and the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department have established a rare cooperative relationship once again.

White Horse then glanced at the people pushing carts past, before turning his gaze back to the special room next to Princess Mira's room, the one used to protect the Vespania gem.

It looks like tonight will be quite lively.

Chapter 1366

"Hey, hey, hey, what's going on? Is this guy here too? I feel like something bad is going to happen tonight."

The ordinary hotel staff member who was pushing the cart past thought to himself.

He subconsciously lowered the brim of his hat.

Make sure your handsome face isn't visible due to the angle of the hat's shadow.

This seemingly ordinary hotel staff member is none other than the famous Phantom Thief Kid.

Kaito Kuroba received Chen En's request earlier in the Bat Cave.

A simple investigation into the information about Visbania ore was enough to determine its dangerous nature.

This kind of thing must absolutely not fall into the hands of criminals.

Otherwise, if it were used for terrorist attacks, it would cause a great deal of casualties.

If we had to choose someone in Tokyo to have the Vesbania ore fall into their hands, then Kaito Kuroba would undoubtedly think Batman is the best candidate.

Therefore, Kaito Kuroba is prepared to help Batman obtain the Vispania Gem.

They have just finished scouting inside the Tokyo Grand Hotel and sent the route map to Conan and Ai Haibara.

Now they plan to disguise themselves as ordinary hotel staff and wait until Princess Mila arrives at the hotel before easily taking the gem.

After all, who would pay attention to an ordinary hotel staff member?

Kaito Kuroba knew very well that this theft was different from his usual thefts as the Phantom Thief Kid.

He doesn't need to send out any phantom thief announcements like he did with his previous heists as Phantom Thief Kid, before making a grand entrance and a grand exit.

That was done in the first place to attract the attention of the mysterious organization, thereby drawing them out to investigate the truth about the father and the Pandora Gem.

But this time, it was only to obtain the Visbania Gem.

Kaito Kuroba is not the kind of vulgar phantom thief who would do anything to increase his fame.

Since he wanted to ensure everything went perfectly, he would naturally take the Vespania gem without making a sound.

But now that he saw Hakuba Saguru in the corridor inside the Tokyo Grand Hotel, Kaito Kuroba couldn't help but feel a little uneasy.

He and Hakuba Saguru have faced off head-on more than once or twice.

This famous detective, who returned from studying in England, is no less perceptive or threatening than a primary school student in a blue suit.

Even though Kaito Kuroba is indeed wearing a disguise mask and has changed into a disguise outfit.

He also had some doubts about whether Hakuba Saguru could discern his identity from the subtle clues and expose him.

"...Honestly, why don't I just find a chance to tell him why I'm here and why I took this Vespania gem?"

Kaito Kuroba muttered to himself.

He believed that Hakuba Saguru was not such a rigid and inflexible detective.
