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

Koizumi Akako saw Curaçao's fate as Ai Haibara did, seeing a crow that could shake the world's destiny. Could Curaçao also be connected to the panacea aptx-4869?

(For details, please see Chapter 838)

"...I need you to come to the Bat Cave."

"I have something I need you to verify; it's a magical prophecy."

Before Chen En could finish speaking, Koizumi Akako interrupted him with some surprise.

"A magical prophecy? You could have just told me right here."

"I am the Scarlet Witch, one of the world's top magicians."

"For me, if it's just about dealing with magical prophecies, there's no need to go to the site at all; it can be done right here in the manor..."

"This magical prophecy is directly related to the Pandora Gem."

Chen En's words immediately silenced Koizumi Akako's side.

After a while, Koizumi Akako said with some displeasure.

"Okay, okay, I'm coming right now."

"If you're trying to fool me, just wait to be blasted to smithereens by my magical beam attack!"

The call has ended.

Having just finished speaking, Chen En turned to look at Ai Haibara.

He said in a low voice.

"Koizumi Akako will be here in a little while."

"Ai, could you please call Curaçao down? We'll need her help out later."

...Should we use other codenamed members of the Black Organization to control the variables?

Ai Haibara nodded slightly.

She turned around and took the elevator upstairs.

As the elevator moved upwards, Chen En began to ponder.

How can he further define his specific goals...?

Chapter 1015: One of Six Options - The Whereabouts of the Pandora Gem

Within a short time, accompanied by the sound of something cutting through the air.

The main gate of the Batcave suddenly opened, and the magical girl who arrived on a broom landed on the ground of the Batcave with some displeasure. She held her broom in one hand, turned her head to look at Ai Haibara and Curaçao, and then looked at Chen En.

"Tell me, what magical prophecy do you think is related to the Pandora Gem?"

Despite saying that, Koizumi Akako didn't really believe that Chen En had any prophecies related to the Pandora Gem.

She is one of the world's top magicians.

He can use any kind of magic with ease, including prophetic magic.

Her previous prophecies had come true, either entirely or partially, which demonstrates the high accuracy of her magical prophecies.

But she didn't predict anything about the Pandora Gem. How could a random magician's prophecy possibly predict the whereabouts of the Pandora Gem? It's unbelievable.

"Kuroba Toichi asked Kudo Yusaku to relay to me a prophecy from a fortune teller in the United States."

"The fortune teller said that this gem is directly related to Batman."

"It could even be said that Batman has already dealt with the owner of this gem, and may even directly cause the power hidden inside the Pandora Gem that can grant immortality to be unleashed in the future, bringing the Pandora Gem into existence."

"And that Batman is obviously me standing in front of you."

Chen En said calmly.

"And I need you to help me with a verification."

"Help me narrow down the number of people who might possess the Pandora Gem to a very small range so that I can verify them one by one later... I need you to connect this prophecy with the fate of Ai Haibara and Curaçao, and perform another divination."

"Yes, you probably already guessed it."

"I believe the Pandora Gem is on one of the codenamed members of the Black Organization."

Upon hearing this, a hint of surprise appeared in Koizumi Akako's eyes.

Is the Pandora Gem on a codenamed member of the Black Organization?

Doesn't that sound a little too strange?

A criminal organization that possesses the Pandora's Gem, which grants immortality, is actually seeking the technological panacea aptx4869, capable of reversing aging? Are they looking for something better while already having something to lose?

Although Koizumi Akako felt that the possibility was not high.

However, when she thought of the eerie, enormous raven behind Ai Haibara and Curaçao that had changed the course of the entire world's destiny, she felt that this possibility was not entirely out of the question.

In that case, let's give it a try.

Koizumi Akako's gaze then fell on Curaçao and Haibara Ai.

Those two crows that changed the fate of the world still fly before him, shuttling through the long river of history.

The Scarlet Witch took out the corresponding magical materials from her magic pouch and began to draw a magic circle on the ground.

Under Curaçao's curious gaze, light shone on the patterns of the magic circle.

Finally, Koizumi Akako placed her magic crystal ball in the center of the magic circle.

The light inside the magic crystal ball immediately began to flicker.

The prophecy, which only the Scarlet Witch herself could decipher, flowed out like water.

Prophecy magic is based on things that already exist.

In other words, the more you know, the more and more accurate the divination can be.

Given that Koizumi Akako had already assumed that the Black Organization behind Curaçao and Ai Haibara was related to the Pandora Gem, he contacted Chen En to perform a divination based on the magical prophecy he had received.

The magical prophecies that had flowed forth like water finally became clear.

She finally identified the final variable.

That's right, just as Chen En deduced.

If the Pandora Gem truly falls into the hands of the Black Organization, then the raven could indeed use it to change the fate of the entire world. Moreover, the Pandora Gem should never have fallen into the hands of the Black Organization in the first place…

In other words, if we take this as a premise, we can predict the source of changes in the world's destiny.

The final answer we can get is the moment the Black Organization picked up the Pandora Gem.

"...Yes, that's right, it's correct."

Koizumi Akako let out a somewhat displeased sound.

"Although I did consider the possibility that it might be due to the panacea aptx4869, considering the situation of the little girl next to you, this possibility can be ruled out."

"Because the connection between Curaçao and the thing that made the crows change the fate of the world is deeper than that between Ai Haibara and Curaçao."

Who is Curaçao?

Curaçao was just a minor member of the Black Organization who appeared in a movie and then died suddenly.

Her only connection to aptx4869 was that she recognized Ai Haibara as Shiho Miyano at the amusement park and concluded that Ai Haibara had taken aptx4869, which could make people young again. That was all.

Ai Haibara, on the other hand, is a pure second-generation black heiress.

Not only were her parents the original developers of aptx4869, but Ai herself further promoted the development of aptx4869 on the original basis, and also developed the antidote for aptx4869.

If that key node is aptx4869, Ai Haibara's connection to Curaçao couldn't possibly be shallower than that of Curaçao.

The answer is then obvious.

That crucial point is the Pandora Gem.

Ai Haibara has now defected from the Black Organization and joined the main characters of Detective Conan, while Curaçao is currently suffering from amnesia. Theoretically, she has not defected from the Black Organization, she has simply not returned.

The Pandora Gem is located within the Black Organization, thus linking it more deeply to Curaçao, who is closer to the Black Organization.

But having said that, we still need to test one more person.

Chen En then had Noah's Ark retrieve the identity information of Hondou Yinghai and Chris Vineyard.

Then he spoke to Koizumi Akako.

"What if we add these two people? These two are also codenamed members of the Black Organization."

Koizumi Akako: ?

How much do you actually know about people connected to the Black Organization?

Koizumi Akako was somewhat surprised.

However, the magic circle had already been drawn and the crystal ball had been set up, so it didn't matter if there were one or two more, since it was all the same divination anyway. She was also very curious about what was going on.

With that in mind, Koizumi Akako immediately took action.

In the blink of an eye, the crystal ball divination yielded a new result.

Hondo Hidemi, who is currently a codenamed member of the Black Organization, and Vermouth's connections are indeed more significant than Curaçao's.

The situation is then quite clear: Chen En only needs to select from the codenamed members of the Black Organization whom these four people know and have dealt with to determine the final range that cannot be narrowed down by speculation.

"Gin, vodka, rum, Vermouth, Ireland, Calvados..."

Chen En frowned slightly.

Whether it's Kiel, bourbon, or rye whiskey.

And neither Curaçao nor Sherry, who are standing nearby, could possibly have Pandora's Gems on them.

That leaves only these six people.

Is the Pandora Gem... possibly among these six people?
