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

However, that guy was just an elementary school student after all, and Kazami Yuya didn't have any intention of specifically investigating Conan. What could an elementary school student possibly have to investigate? What special identity could he possibly have?

Kazami Yuya's thoughts raced for a moment, but in the end, he spoke firmly in a low voice.

"...I refuse to believe that Morofushi Takamine was alone at all throughout the day."

"I must find an opportunity to speak with Morofushi Takami alone!"

However, what he was completely unaware of was...

While he was tracking Morofushi Takami, the North American exorcist working for Hakuba Saguru was secretly following him.

Although North American exorcists have little to no professional ethics.

But since Hakuba Saguru paid him, he still had to do the job.

Anyway, it's just following a Japanese police officer; there's no danger involved.

The locals here are afraid of these secret police, but this noble foreigner is not. Besides, the secret police can't possibly find out his real location, can they?

"It turns out he was thinking the same thing as that kid."

The North American exorcist stroked his chin, somewhat surprised.

Previously, Hakuba Saguru noticed that Kuroda Hyōe was in contact with Morofushi Takaaki, and suspected that Morofushi Takaaki might have some connection with the Japanese Public Security Bureau. So he casually checked Morofushi Takaaki's file.

It was discovered that Morofushi Takaaki had a younger brother named Morofushi Kagemitsu.

Morofushi Kagemitsu's file was initially kept within the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department, but it was later transferred away from there until he went to the police academy for training.

In this situation, he was obviously transferred to the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department to work as a Japanese public security officer.

Given this, it's understandable that Morofushi Takaaki would have a good relationship with Kuroda Hyōe, who came from the Japanese Public Security Bureau. However, he soon noticed Kazami Yuya's situation.

After learning from his investigation that Kuroda Hyōe and Morofushi Takaaki had arranged to meet after Morofushi Takaaki arrived in Tokyo, this person specifically sought out Kuroda Hyōe to ask to meet with Morofushi Takaaki to discuss something he needed Morofushi Takaaki's help with.

And they even talked about it near the Suzuki Foundation headquarters.

He even took the time to call the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department's Traffic Division, hoping they would impound Chen En's car. It was because of this that Hakuba Saguru noticed the situation.

Otherwise, he might not have realized that Yuya Kazami, a Japanese public security officer who had once embarrassed himself in the lobby of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department, was also connected with Kagemitsu Morofushi.

Then, concluding that given the Japanese Public Security Bureau's consistent modus operandi, they would never be refused, they gave up.

Therefore, it was assumed that Kazami Yuya would most likely follow Kuroda Hyōe afterward in order to find Morofushi Takaki.

And indeed, things turned out exactly as Hakuba Saguru had predicted.

The North American exorcist used a communicator to inform Hakuba Saguru of what he was seeing.

At this very moment, inside the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department, Hakuba Saguru, who was reviewing information about Akama in the Flames, frowned slightly. He retrieved some files again, examined them, and then a look of understanding appeared in his eyes.

He already understood why.

Chapter 867 Look at that young man, he's really handsome with dark skin.

Kazami Yuya's direct superior is Furuya Rei.

Although the specifics are unknown, it seems that Inspector Furuya Rei has not been seen for a long time.

According to Hakuba Saguru's friend in the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department, Furuya Rei was transferred to Nishitama City to investigate matters related to the virus leak, but that's where the problem lies.

His friends in Nishitama City couldn't find any information about Furuya Rei.

This person is most likely not in Nishitama City, but has secretly slipped away to Tokyo sometime ago, or has simply resigned or died.

Hakuba Saguru leans towards the latter.

He really didn't care much about or know much about the Black Organization.

But he did know that Kuroda Hyōe called Furuya Rei "Bourbon Whiskey".

The fact that all the codenamed members of the Black Organization used alcohol as their codenames made him think of Rei Furuya as part of the organization. If Rei Furuya was an undercover agent of the Japanese Public Security Bureau infiltrated into the Black Organization, then the codename would make sense.

There is no practice within the Japanese Public Security Bureau of using alcoholic beverage names as code names.

But why doesn't Hakuba Saguru believe that Furuya Rei is actually on an undercover mission and can't show himself?

He only needed to ask the internal public security personnel of the squad led by Furuya Rei to find out.

Although the Japanese Public Security officers there did not tell him about Furuya Rei's current situation, they did vaguely reveal that Furuya Rei had not contacted them for a long time.

Even his direct subordinates weren't contacted, yet Kazami Yuya deliberately sought out Morofushi Takaaki, who was connected to Morofushi Kagemitsu, for help.

Hakuba Saguru believes that Rei Furuya has most likely either resigned or died.

He likely sought help from Morofushi Takaaki because he hoped Morofushi Takaaki could help him find Furuya Rei.

Hakuba had some guesses about Furuya Rei's current identity.

Previously, the demolition experts and the red-hatted individuals had a showdown in the warehouse.

Just moments before the explosion engulfed Red Hood and the explosives expert, Red Hood pushed Kazami Yuya out of the warehouse. This was witnessed by Inspector Megure, Officer Shiratori, and others, and recorded in their report.

This incident has led many to suspect that there might be some connection between Kazami Yuya and the Red Hood.

However, a subsequent investigation led by members of the gold watch group was conducted.

It has been determined that there is absolutely no connection between Kazami Yuya and the Red Hood; this whole thing is completely fabricated.

The reason Red Hood wanted Kazami Yuya to leave the scene of the explosion was most likely simply because he didn't want to kill a member of the Japanese Public Security Bureau, since Red Hood has never harmed any public officials so far.

It makes sense that they didn't harm any innocent citizens.

But Hakuba Saguru had an even bolder idea.

Is it possible that the person wearing the red hood is actually Rei Furuya?

Kazami Yuya's real purpose in seeking help from Morofushi Takaki was actually to get Furuya Rei, who had been turned into a red-hooded figure, back into the Japanese Public Security Bureau? Magicians certainly don't lack magical tools that can control other people's minds.

Not to mention anything far away, Inspector Nakamori Ginzo of the Second Investigation Division alone has been caught in the trap once.

If Rei Furuya were to contract this disease, it wouldn't be surprising...

"But how should we use this information?"

Hakuba Saguru tapped his fingers lightly on the table as he pondered.

While Hakuba Saguru was still pondering...

While having dinner at the hotel, Chen En glanced over the direction where Kazami Yuya and the North American exorcists were, before finally focusing his gaze on the cars stopped on the street waiting for the green light.

Perhaps ordinary people don't attract that much attention.

But there was one person in that car who attracted a lot of attention.

Having just finished their meal, Morofushi Takaaki and Kuroda Hei followed Chen En's gaze to the car. Their eyes then fell on the person chatting with someone else through the rear window, and a look of surprise appeared in their eyes.

Zhu Fu Gaoming couldn't help but sigh.

"Look at that young man, he's really handsome with dark skin."

They don't seem to be locals.

Kuroda Hyōe nodded in deep agreement.

The person in the back seat of the car that the three of them were looking at was none other than Hattori Heiji.

People who are not familiar with or do not know Heiji Hattori might immediately think of him as a tourist from another country, or simply speculate in their minds whether he is of mixed race or something like his mother has eaten too much soy sauce.

"Perhaps you haven't heard of him."

"But he is a representative detective in the Kansai region, known as a detective on par with Shinichi Kudo in the Kansai region, and his name is Heiji Hattori."

Chen En casually introduced himself, tapping his earphone lightly with his finger.

At that moment, Kogoro Mouri's car immediately drove Heiji Hattori to the next intersection, while Noah's Ark informed Chen En through the earpiece about the destination of Kogoro Mouri and the others.

"Mr. Chen En, if nothing unexpected happens..."

"Kogoro Mori is moving towards Beikacho 4-chome, which could be the arsonist's next target."

As he spoke, he casually added something.

"By the way, you may not know this, but I should remind you. Beika Town 5-chome is the Mouri Detective Agency, so the arsonist's next target could be Kogoro Mouri's Mouri Detective Agency."

Even if my house burned down, the Mori Detective Agency couldn't possibly have burned down.

Chen En thought to himself.

If it wasn't confirmed before, now that Kogoro Mori has gone to Beikacho 4-chome, it means that Beikacho 4-chome is the arsonist's next target.

Others might say he's just guessing.

But Chen Enhui said he was making reasonable use of Kogoro Mouri's relevant laws.

"That direction seems to be Beika Town, right?"

"The Genda Takatoku that Detective Chen En just mentioned lives in Beika Town. Perhaps Detective Mori and Detective Hattori went to Beika Town to solve a case. If I weren't so busy with official duties, I would definitely have gone with you."

Kuroda Hyōe remarked with such emotion.

He didn't even need to ask; he knew that Morofushi Takaaki would most likely go with Chen En to Beihu Town to find Genda Ryūtoku to inquire about the situation, and then solve the case related to the Red Horse in the Flames.

Upon hearing this, Zhu Fu Gaoming nodded slightly and smiled.

As the ancients said, "Speed ​​is of the essence in war."

“Mr. Chen En, since that Detective Hattori has already set off first.”

“We should catch up soon. I don’t have the habit of leaving all the case solving to detectives. The police have the ability to solve cases themselves, they just haven’t put it to use.”

Chen En: ?

Am I a detective?

Why are you making it sound like I've been categorized as part of the police force?
