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

See here.

Having finally finished eating her fill of gossip, Judith Sterling quietly took a step back, pretending nothing had happened, and walked towards the entrance of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department.

She had originally planned to leave with Tomoaki Shinide, since there weren't many statements to be taken this time.

Calvados has been gone for quite some time now, as has Shinichiro, and normally she would be the same.

However, the sight of Japanese public security officers and Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department officers arguing in public is still quite rare, so she decided to stay and finish her business before leaving.

Anyway, today's plan to meet with Shinichiro and the others has already failed.

We don't need to waste a little time.

Judy walked out of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department as if nothing had happened.

The eyes of many Japanese public security officers were fixed on her back as they followed her toward the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department.

Judy felt a chill run down her spine.

But she was too embarrassed to turn around, so she had no choice but to walk towards the entrance of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department, as if she had made up her mind.

However, just as Judy arrived at the door...

Just then, Inspector Megure, who was finishing up his shift, appeared at the entrance of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department with a large number of officers and relevant witnesses, looking at Jodie with surprise.

"Master Saint Timilion, you haven't left yet?"

Judy Sterling's pseudonym in Japan is Judy Saint-Temilion.

She used this alias when she gave her statement at the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department, so Inspector Megure blurted out the question the moment he saw Jodie.

Because Judy's statement was actually taken by their group.

After finishing taking statements here, they went to meet with Officer Chiba to deal with the serious kidnapping incident.

Logically speaking, Judy should have left the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department long ago, so why has she been staying until now?

Is there anything else you want to say?

Faced with the questioning gazes of many First Investigative Division officers, Judy felt slightly embarrassed and didn't know what to say for a moment.

We can't say she stayed until now just to watch the excitement, can we?

What embarrassed her even more was that James Black appeared behind Inspector Megure.

The senior FBI investigator looked at Judy with disbelief, completely unexpected that she was there...

He pointed to the location of the phone.

Upon seeing this, Judy was immediately taken aback.

Then she took her phone out of her pocket, secretly admiring James's wisdom.

Why didn't she think of suddenly taking out her phone and pretending to receive a new call, so she could naturally walk out of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department?

However, the moment she took out her phone...

She was stunned.

the reason is simple.

Previously, the phone's messaging interface, which had been muted when the hijacking occurred, contained numerous unread messages.

All of these unread messages were from James; her attention had been completely focused on the online confrontation taking place inside the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department.

She didn't even notice that James had sent her a message.

For a moment, Judy looked up at James, unsure of what to say.

Fortunately, the awkward atmosphere didn't last long, because Genta's stomach started growling.

It's already 1:30, almost 2:00.

According to normal mealtimes, Genta would have finished eating by 12 o'clock. The fact that he hasn't eaten yet is already a test of his willpower.

Inspector Megure immediately led the Junior Detective Club and several people involved in the case into the office area to take statements and quickly resolve the matter.

They didn't ask Judy why she hadn't left the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department yet.

See here.

Judy sat down on a nearby bench with some trepidation, waiting for James and the others to come out of the interrogation room of the Criminal Investigation Department.

She never expected that James would appear at the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department at this time.

Moreover, the mysterious blond man in sunglasses whom she had seen on the bus earlier, who seemed somewhat familiar to her, was also traveling with them.

This is truly astonishing...

The questioning phase did not last long.

James quickly emerged from the questioning supervisor's room and sat down next to Judy. He looked at Judy and sighed for no apparent reason.

Judy: ?

What does it mean?

Why do you seem to feel sorry for me? I was just eating some melon seeds around the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department, is it really that big of a deal?

Judy became even more restless.

Just as she couldn't hold back any longer and was about to be the first to admit her mistake to James.

James, however, said it directly.

"Judy, you've missed your chance."

Judy: ?

What... what does this mean?

Are you trying to fire me?

I don't want that kind of thing!

Wait at least ten years, until I capture Vermouth and get my revenge, then fire me!

Judy looked somewhat shocked.

Seeing her appearance.

James realized that Judy must have misheard something and quickly explained.

"I'm talking about what happened between you and Akai."

"Judy, even if Akai were still alive, you wouldn't have a chance."

I thought it was about my being fired from the FBI, but it turns out it's about Shuichi's relationship. Oh, how big of a deal is that...?

Judy had just breathed a sigh of relief.

Then he suddenly looked up, a look of doubt appearing in his eyes, and asked in bewilderment.

"What do you mean by that?"

"If it were when you and I first met, I think there would still be a chance."

James said meaningfully.

"But now that you've passed your expiration date, you probably don't have any chance anymore."

Judy: ?

When we first met...

I think I'm only eight years old?

Chapter 734 It's not that lolis have maternal instincts, but rather that lolis happen to have maternal instincts.

"Randy Hawke, the host of the famous animal show 'Paul & Anne Animal Show,' visited Nichiri TV's special interview program today..."

A voice came from the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department's internal television, saying that the three hostage-takers who had previously been convinced they couldn't catch Randy Hawke were simply losing their composure because of his lack of martial spirit and the fact that he had hired bodyguards.

They could previously comfort themselves.

They were just one step away from capturing the oil tycoon, but failed because his bodyguards intervened.

But now this consolation has crumbled.

They didn't actually encounter Randy Hawke; they just met a foreigner who looked a lot like Randy.

Then he was taken down by a passerby's bodyguard.

They were not just one step away from success; in fact, they hadn't even embarked on the road to success.

I fell for it out of nowhere.

“I’ll tell you everything.”

In the interrogation room, the kidnapper, who had mistakenly kidnapped the wrong person and was now being held captive, suddenly lost all his strength and could only sigh.

"Why do all foreigners look exactly the same? I can't tell them apart at all!"

The Junior Detective Club and others who came to the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department with the three hostage-takers have already left.

Inside a nearby eel restaurant.

Genta, who possesses the legendary power of a huge stomach, is devouring the eel rice in front of him at an extremely fast speed, with the plates stacked high.

So much so that many diners around him couldn't help but give him a thumbs up when they saw his appearance.

This son of a bitch, he eats like a fucking bastard!

The speed at which Genta cooked rice was remarkable.

The other members of the Junior Detective Club were already used to it, and simply ate their own eel rice while keeping an eye on Chen En out of the corner of their eyes.

Unlike others.

Everyone else in the eel restaurant was drinking the strong tea provided by the restaurant.

This one person, however, insisted on drinking coffee in the eel shop, becoming a unique and remarkable sight.
