The unscrupulous detective in Conan

Chapter 1204 This old man is fooling people again

Fujino felt that the maid that Kuroba Kaito was talking about was Mine Fujiko.

At this moment, apart from her, no one else would pretend to be a maid, and Kuroba Kaito exclaimed: "Her disguise skills are so high that she looks like a real woman."

So, it’s not that the disguise is too sophisticated, but that there is no disguise at all.

Fujino recalled that the reason why Mine Fujiko disguised herself as a maid was probably because the security was too tight and she couldn't run away, so she had to disguise herself as a maid and planned to find a chance to escape.

As for the possibility of Lupin... he felt it was completely impossible.

The Lupin in his memory should be the one who knocked out Brother Mori and pretended to be him.

Although Lupin's camouflage ability is not inferior to that of Kuroba Kaito, it is not much higher.

At least not to the extent that Kuroba Kaito said.

Of course, there was no way Lupin could escape.

This time he came here because of the murder of Queen Shakra. Stealing the crown was just an excuse.

He will not leave until Kilard is brought to justice.

Thinking of Kirad, Fujino couldn't help but mourn for Brother Zenigata.

Brother Zenigata's prediction of Lupin this time was very successful. He evacuated many people in the palace in advance to prevent Lupin from escaping.

Unfortunately, it was used by Kirad to plant a bomb.

Planning to blow everyone up into the sky.

Fujino wanted to complain: Brother, you are an excellent Interpol, how could you not see this?

But, think about it.

This old man has no eyes for anyone or anything other than Lupin.

"Leave the bomb disposal to me, you continue to monitor Killard."

Fujino edited a text message and sent the news of his bomb disposal to Kuroba Kaito.

Just like Kuroba Kaito said, it would be better for him to defuse the bomb himself.

As a thief magician, Kuroba Kaito is obviously inexperienced in bomb disposal.

If you defuse a bomb well, you will be covered in dust; if you defuse it badly, you will turn into dust.

If this isn't demolished properly, Kuroba Kaito will probably turn into ashes on the spot. All the women and children in the village are invited to the feast.

What's more, he was a little jealous of the bomb buried there.

Afterwards, Fujino used Conan's need to urinate as an excuse to go to the bathroom in the palace, and then sent Xiao Hei to the pavilion that Kuroba Kaito mentioned to defuse the bomb.

Outside the bathroom, Lupin III felt a little depressed when he saw Fujino walking into the bathroom.

He planned to stake out near the bathroom and pretend to be someone, but he didn't expect... that the person who came was this little detective.

Lupin was in a state of confusion for a moment: should he knock this guy out, or wait for others?
Lupin thought about it and finally decided to wait.

He recalled the information he had found and felt that he would not be able to defeat the opponent, or at least it would be difficult to knock him out.

After all, this was a man who could chop a van in half with one sword, just as terrifying as Goemon...

Just when Lupin was planning to change his nesting place, a middle-aged man with a mustache and a somewhat wretched look suddenly passed by from the corner of the corridor.

Lupin's eyes suddenly lit up.

…………

Fujino had just returned to the Queen's bedroom where the princess was, and Zenigata, as originally planned, called everyone in the palace to the pavilion at the back.

"Dad, why hasn't he come back from the bathroom yet?"

Xiaolan glanced at her phone and complained anxiously, "If we wait a little longer, we'll be late... Senior Fujino, did you see my dad just now?"

"I saw it."

Fujino responded, "When I came out of the bathroom just now, Maori brother just went in."

As for why he hasn't come out yet, it's probably because he was knocked unconscious by Lupin and is taking off his clothes to disguise himself.

However, he did not intend to expose the matter.

After a pause, he thought: "Maybe he is still inconvenient. After all, Brother Maori is not young anymore."

"?"

Xiaolan silently typed a question mark, not quite understanding what Fujino meant.

Kailu said at this time: "Ms. Xiaolan and Her Royal Highness the Princess, you can go first. I will wait for Mr. Maori here for a while. After all, there are still some maids and cooks in the palace who don't know the news yet."

"OK then."

Everyone responded and headed to the pavilion behind the palace.

Before leaving, Fujino turned back and said to Kailu, "Mr. Kailu, lock up the armory in the palace so that no one can break in. Also, take out the gun that Kirad used for hunting."

"clear."

"your Highness……"

When Fujino and his group arrived, Keith was already there.

He greeted the princess, who was clearly unhappy, and then asked Fujino in a low voice, "Excuse me, how is the investigation going?"

"The evidence has been found."

Fujino looked at Keith and said, "I think I'll be able to tell it directly later, just as you expected."

"But then again, is it really okay for you to do this?"

"There doesn't seem to be much garrison in the palace, but there are a lot of soldiers. Maybe that fellow Kirad will use a hidden swordsman trick to kill us all."

Keith's expression was calm. He turned his head and looked outside the pavilion: "The power outside the palace cannot enter..."

"Don't act innocent in front of that old bitch."

Fujino glanced at him, "You want the princess to recognize Kirad, right?"

"..." Keith narrowed his eyes when he heard that.

Fujino continued: "Based on your performance, it is impossible that you have not imagined the worst case scenario. Your purpose, I have to say that you are really a loyal minister.

"A delicate flower that has never experienced danger cannot withstand the wind and rain, and cannot be ruthless enough to deal with its own uncle, as well as the remaining forces of that uncle..."

"But aren't you afraid of getting into trouble?"

"Now, I guess the royal guards are out of your hands, right?"

Keith smiled calmly: "With your ability, I think you will not expose yourself and your companions to danger, and your companions are here with you, right?"

"Tsk, people like you are really disgusting. Aren't you afraid that I will betray you and join Killad's side?"

At this time, everyone in the palace also came to the pavilion.

Kirad, along with two guards, asked Zenigata, "Is this all right, Officer Zenigata?"

"Ahem, thank you very much."

Qian Xing coughed lightly and then said, "Just now, the crown in the palace treasury was stolen, and the criminal and the crown disappeared as if they had evaporated from the face of the earth."

"And I reduced the number of people in the palace as much as possible in order to arrest the criminal."

"The criminal is among us!" He looked around and said, "One of Lupin's best abilities is disguise. He can disguise himself as anyone, whether it's an old man, a child, or a dog!"

Lupin III disguised as Maori: "..."

So what was this old man thinking? How could I disguise myself as a dog?
Zenigata continued at this time: "However, his disguise is not flawless. As long as his face is torn off, his disguise can be cracked. Therefore, as long as we check the people at the scene, we can easily find Lupin!"

So how come this operation is exactly the same as Brother Nakamori’s?

Brother Zenigata, could it be that you happen to be friends with brother Nakamori?
As Fujino listened to Zenigata's analysis of Lupin's operation, he inexplicably felt that it was a bit similar to catching Kaito Kid.

Just as Zenigata was about to investigate Lupin, Fujino coughed lightly and took two steps forward: "Brother Zenigata, there is no rush to catch Lupin, can you let me say a few words first?"

"you?"

Zenigata looked at the younger brother of his good friend Megure with some confusion: "You want to catch Lupin too?"

So you really only have Lupin in your eyes...

Why would I catch Lupin? Is there Micha?

Fujino complained silently in his heart, then shook his head slightly and said calmly:

"My target is not Lupin."

"The person I want to arrest is the real murderer of Queen Vespania and the prince."

"Forehead……"

Qian Xing was stunned for a moment, "Can't we wait a while before catching it?"

Fujino sighed, his tone sounding somewhat helpless:
"If we don't catch him now, we will all be killed by this man who wants to usurp the throne. By then, even if we want to catch Lupin, we won't have the chance."

"what?"

Zenigata's eyes were full of confusion, "Someone is trying to stop me from catching Lupin?!"

Fujino no longer had anything good to say to Uncle Zenigata.

He turned his gaze towards Kirad and said in a voice that everyone present could hear:
"I'm right, right? Duke Girard killed the queen and the prince, and wanted to assassinate the princess to seize power and usurp the throne."

Upon hearing this, everyone present turned their gazes to Killad, their eyes full of confusion.

Then I saw Kirad put on an innocent look and said, "Sir, you are really going too far. Her Majesty the Queen and the Prince are my beloved relatives and friends. How could I possibly harm them?"

"Even if you say that I killed my sister and nephew, you should produce evidence, right?"

"If you don't provide evidence, this is considered libel in Vespania."

Fujino sighed slightly: "I really don't understand what you are pretending. You are about to send us to heaven together, but you can't let us die with understanding?"

Then he said to Kailu who was standing beside him: "Kailu, give me the gun."

"Yes."

Kailu took out a shotgun and handed it to Fujino.

Fujino pointed the muzzle of the gun directly at Girard: "Mr. Girard, this hunting rifle is the one you used when you went hunting that day."

"If you don't do it, I'm going to kill you first."

Kirad's face turned pale, and he quickly took two steps back, brought a guard in front of him, and stretched out his hand to make a secret signal.

However, the scene he expected did not happen.

This made him stunned, and his whole face was full of confusion.

Everyone present looked at Fujino and Kirad with surprise in their eyes.

Fujino scoffed at this. "Are you curious as to why those guards with assault rifles that you ambushed didn't show up?"

"Because they have all been dealt with."

Fujino walked slowly towards Killard, pointing the gun at his head: "Now, it seems that you don't have any bargaining chips to use, right?"

"hateful!"

Kirad cursed and reached into his pocket: "Don't move, I have buried bombs in the pillars behind you. If you dare to move, I will detonate them!"

"Then everyone will hold hands and go to see our dear queen!"

"So you want to die with us?"

Fujino still pointed his gun at him, and narrowed his eyes: "If I use the gun to smash your brain stem first, making you unable to move, I'm afraid the bomb won't explode, right?"

Kirad gritted his teeth and said, "It depends on who moves faster. However, at this distance, I might get sucked in and injured, but those people behind you will definitely die!"

"You don't want your friends to be killed, do you?"

Fujino looked back at the big pillar behind him.

If there is a bomb inside the pillar, then this distance is exactly as he said.

Ai, Momiji, Ran Sonoko and Conan will all be killed in the explosion, and although Killad may be affected by the shock wave, he still has a certain chance of survival.

The plan was a good one, but unfortunately he had already dismantled the bombs and stored them in his personal space.

But it would be a shame not to blackmail this guy.

Fujino lowered the muzzle of the gun slightly, his expression suddenly turned fearful, and he looked 'scared' and 'shocked':

"I didn't expect you to do this!"

"Humph……"

Kirad snorted complacently: "Since you have said that I am plotting to usurp the throne, how could I not make some preparations?"

Fujino's expression turned helpless: "So, we are definitely going to die today?"

"Can't talk?"

Kirad's face darkened when he heard this: "What are you talking about?"

"I was only commissioned by the princess to investigate this case." Fujino explained, "The princess promised me that after she ascended the throne, she would pay me 1 billion commission money, as well as the position of Vespania's Protector General..."

Then he looked at Kirad and said, "As long as you can let me and my friends leave and give me the same benefits, I think we can cooperate."

Kirad moved his eyes around and took a look at Fujino in front of him.

To be honest, he was a little afraid of this guy in front of him...

Who wouldn’t be afraid if the black muzzle of a gun is pointed at you?
But since we can negotiate, things become much simpler. Wouldn't it be better to offer a higher price than the princess?

Anyway, whether it comes out in the end or not is up to him.

Kirad thought for a moment and said, "I offer 2 billion yen, plus the title of Duke of Vespania, and compared to that princess, I can give it to you now!"

"That's it!"

Fujino tilted his mouth slightly when he heard that, and turned to Mira, with a guilty look on his face, and said embarrassedly: "Little Princess, I'm sorry, the other party's offer is higher, and it's real, not a blank check, I can only betray you."

"You bastard!"

Mira was stunned for a moment, her face turned pale, she didn't expect the other party to turn against her.

She gritted her teeth, her eyes reddened: "You obviously... this is nothing..."

Haibara Ai and Conan looked at the scene in front of them, looked at each other, and nodded tacitly.

This guy Fujino (Lao Deng) is fooling people again.
