The unscrupulous detective in Conan

Chapter 1210: Hitt Vine's List

Gaining real power before having the corresponding strength is a disaster.

Sometimes, you can't push too far.

If he were named the Marshal of the Vespanian Army, Navy and Air Force today, in charge of Vespania's 30,000 troops, he would probably end up in an accident like Lao Da when he flew back to the capital tomorrow and travel directly to another world by plane.

As for honorary titles of nominal positions, are they useful?
All I can say is that bullying some ordinary lackeys is still useful.

You say my honorary title is useless?
This title was bestowed upon me by the Queen herself. Do you look down on the new Queen? How can you accept this title?
I think you've eaten too many red beans and are missing each other!

What's more, I am an honorary prime minister of Vespasian. Can't I let the queen call me father-in-law?

Fujino was quite satisfied with the arrangement for the little princess. He had never asked for real power, so he felt pretty good to get a nominal position.

After all, the promised money has not been paid yet, right?

"So, what about the commission?"

Seeing Fujino continue to speak, Keith couldn't help but frowned and looked at Mira beside him.

Mira felt the gaze and suddenly felt embarrassed.

She almost forgot that in addition to the empty position, she also had to pay the money.

"..."

Keith was silent for a while, then he understood and wanted to pat his forehead.

I secretly complained in my heart: "This princess... Why does the queen promise everything?"

"In addition to the honors and honors, there is also money. They really dare to give everything. I'm afraid that if we are not careful, the Queen will pay it all!"

"In the future, if there is anything, you must never let a woman make the decision alone, otherwise she will be fooled without knowing how she was fooled!"

"Oh, why didn't you tell me earlier? Wouldn't I have to pay the detective again? Why didn't the Queen tell me about this earlier?"

"No, this detective was urging me to transfer the money before. Could it be that he had planned this a long time ago?"

"As expected of you..."

Keith looked at Fujino and realized that he was being plotted against, but there was no surprise in his eyes.

All I can say is that this detective is okay, even better than him in some ways.

He was quite helpless, and finally he could only respond: "I will deposit the commission money promised by the Queen into your bank account later after the Queen ascends the throne. It is the same account as before. Is that okay?"

"No problem, go there if you have money."

"..."

Keith was silent for a moment, looking at Fujino's appearance in front of him, and complained in his heart:

"Why does it feel like this detective is acting like we'll have money transferred into his account in the future?"

Although he was reluctant, Keith decided to transfer the money, and a little more than before.

Keith is well versed in the ways of the workplace. He had transferred money once before, and this time he was transferring money on behalf of the Queen. If he transferred less money, wouldn't that be disrespectful to the Queen?

What's more, this detective is indeed a talent.

Even if you are a little greedy, you have to take the initiative to make friends with him. After all, his ability is there. Who knows if you will need to look for him again in the future? It is better to establish a good relationship in advance.

It’s okay to be a little greedy like this, but I’m afraid the other party doesn’t want anything.

That's a big problem.

and……

God knows where the detective took the bomb he had defused earlier.

…………

The princess's coronation as queen was a grand ceremony.

There was a procession from the palace to the nearby church. After being crowned by the archbishop in the church, there was another procession back to the palace. There were crowds of people everywhere on both sides of the street, as well as soldiers in formal dress maintaining order, and a guard of honor, just like the Queen of England was ascending the throne.

Fujino didn't know how to complain.

But this matter has nothing to do with him.

Mira became queen, and the first thing she did after ascending the throne was to get Fujino three certificates of honor to award him status, one Grand Cross Medal, one Medal of Bravery, and one Double Eagle Loyalty Medal First Class.

Fujino officially became the General of the Vespasian Nation, Chief Advisor to the Royal Family, and Honorary Prime Minister, and also became the holder of several Vespasian Medals.

Including the previous cross medal, he now has four medals.

The Double Eagle Medal of Loyalty is said to be a medal awarded by Vespania to particularly outstanding people, representing honor or something. The Grand Cross Medal is for promoting Vespania's international relations, and the Medal of Bravery is for heroic acts shown in dangerous incidents.

"Double Eagle Loyalty Medal..."

Fujino felt that the name of this medal had a kind of beauty of "Swallow Double Eagle" plus "Seoul Spring", and combined with his own title of general...

Fujino felt that he alone could directly represent the North and South factions on a small island bordering the mainland on a certain small globe.

The medal style is the two-headed eagle with the Vespasian national emblem, similar to Russia, and the nature of the emblem is similar to Ingram's Cross...

"In short, it's useless. At most, you can carry a lot of them on your chest when you go to a formal banquet in a foreign country."

"Well, at least it's better than that crappy letter of appreciation from Japan or nothing at all. At least the medal or something like that has commemorative value and can be taken out to show off."

Fujino thought of the official rewards and brought up a certain county in Japan to be punished.

Mira, who ascended the throne to become the queen, was no different from before, except that her demeanor had changed a little to become closer to that of the queen - probably because she felt a little proud after the coronation ceremony.

This is what Fujino thinks.

As a distinguished guest, Her Majesty Queen Mira will naturally receive him before he leaves.

The time was afternoon and the location was the restaurant of the palace.

Queen Mira raised her glass and said, "Thank you all for your contribution to Vespania. I have a lot to do now that I have just become queen, so I can't go and see you off. This private banquet will serve as a practice for you!"

"cheers!"

Those Fujino who had reached adulthood in Vespania raised their wine glasses, while those like Xiaolan who had not yet reached adulthood in Vespania could only drink beverages instead of wine.

There aren't a lot of food options in Vespaña, just European style, bread, steak, soup and so on.

Made by the royal chef, the taste retains its original flavor.

It can't be said that the food is tasteless, but it can be said that apart from the steak which has some flavor, it would be a pity to throw away everything else. Fujino feels that it is a bit of a waste of ingredients.

Haibara Ai felt the same way. During the few days she came to Vespania, she almost felt sick from eating all these things.

Although these are Vespania specialties, they are also very healthy and I even lost a lot of weight.

But she still misses the Chinese food she had at home.

Although the weight gain is a bit fast, but it is really delicious.

Mira ended the practice banquet with a smile on her face.

Although there were some minor setbacks, it was thanks to this group of people that he was able to successfully capture his uncle who killed his mother and brother, and then safely ascend the throne.

But what she remembers most is the carefree day she spent in Japan.

It can be said that it is impressive.

There are too many murders and robberies, but it's still quite exciting.

But now that I'm the queen, I guess those days will become more and more distant in the future.

Having just become the queen, Mira now has a lot of things to deal with. When she thinks about the documents that Keith pushed over to her, she feels a headache.

"Oh, I guess I'll have to work overtime from now on."

Mira reluctantly finished her meal and planned to go back to work overtime.

"Why, does Her Majesty feel the pressure has doubled since taking office?"

"Huh? Why did you follow me out?"

"I just gave you the throne, and you're already acting like a queen, right?"

Fujino complained speechlessly, and then said: "We are just chatting privately, so don't be so arrogant."

"Want a cigarette?"

Mira looked at the red box that Fujino took out, hesitated for a moment, then took the cigarette and started smoking: "Before you were so stingy when giving me cigarettes, why are you just throwing a box at me now?"

"Because you are the queen, of course."

Fujino said seriously, "If I give cigarettes to the princess, I have to consider whether it is worth it. But if the queen gives cigarettes to me, I don't have to think about it. How can she not reward me?"

"You really put profit above all else..."

Mira's eyes were dim, "So this is what they call a profit-making relationship, right?"

"Yeah, you can say that." Fujino nodded, "But you just take someone's cigarette so casually, aren't you afraid that it might be poisonous?"

"what?"

Mira's eyebrows twitched, and then she sighed helplessly: "Don't scold me, you have pushed me to the position of queen, if you poison me, how can I refuse?"

"Just kill me with a sword and I won't be able to resist."

"What you said is true."

Fujino thought for a moment and responded, "But I want to remind you of something else."

"Something else?"

"For example, don't bite your fingers. Wear gloves during diplomatic visits, or else you'll be drugged with cyanide. You can't move alone at any time. You have to be accompanied by two or three bodyguards, even when you're taking a shower."

"..."

Mira was speechless for a while: "So why do you seem to have paranoid delusions?"

Then, she said helplessly: "Except for fingers and so on, Keith has told me all these. As for the personal bodyguard, it is not possible."

"Some important positions in the Royal Guard are hereditary, and women rarely get them, and few are qualified. Now the Royal Guard is almost all men, and Keith plans to select some women with clean backgrounds from the army."

"I'm just reminding you."

Fujino glanced at her and continued, "Don't let your guard down even if you become the queen. There are many people who want to kill you. I asked someone to investigate these past two days. There are still many anti-princess and anti-feudal groups in Vespania."

"There's nothing we can do about it."

Mira sighed, "If it was before, I would definitely say that if we make the country better and the people's lives better, no one would think this way, but now I understand that as long as there are still people coveting power, there is nothing we can do about it."

"It seems that you have taken what I said before to heart."

"But I want to remind you that you also have to be on guard against Keith."

"Keith?"

Mira was stunned when she heard this. "Keith, he shouldn't be in any trouble, after all, even when my uncle tried to instigate him to rebel, he didn't..."

Fujino's face became serious for a moment: "People can't be completely trusted. If you can do it now, can you guarantee it for the future or his descendants?"

"Keith is a man with too deep thoughts. It's probably impossible to see through him with your intelligence."

Mira drooped her eyelids: "So I'm just a fool in your eyes?"

"Hard to say……"

Fujino groaned for a moment, then continued, "I can only say that it is hard to say whether such a person is a loyal minister or a traitor. If used well, he is like a sharp sword, but if used poorly, he is like the sword of Damocles hanging over your head."

"Now he is second only to the emperor in the royal family. Especially after your uncle's incident, he has gained the highest trust in you."

"Does it feel familiar to you?"

Mira was stunned when she heard this, and immediately realized that Keith's scenario was too similar to her uncle's. She frowned and said, "You mean, Keith will follow my uncle's old path one day?"

"That's not the case."

Fujino touched his chin and said, "He can't justify his rebellion. If he really dares to rebel, it will be like the 18 princes attacking Dong Zhuo. He should understand this."

"As for what he will do, I can't predict the future, and I don't understand it."

"But it's not impossible for him to stay by your side, conquer you, and then make his child the king."

"After all, this way, it's legitimate and no one can say anything."

Mira listened and exclaimed in surprise: "Isn't this what you wanted to do before?"

"Don't change the subject!"

Fujino complained speechlessly: "I was just talking before, at least I couldn't do it to you, why did you take it so seriously?"

"Am I that kind of person?"

"Hard to say……"

Mira said suspiciously.

She thought about it and felt that Fujino was quite close to Momiji from the Ooka family.

"Thinking about it, that woman mentioned earlier that she had a fiancé or something, maybe it was this guy?"

"You have already attempted to usurp the Ooka family, so how can it be impossible for you to usurp my country?"

Mira thought so in her heart.

Fujino took a deep breath and calmed himself down. He wanted to take out his wooden sword and hit the princess's head with it. "Whether he is persecuted or reused, you should be on guard against him. At least at this stage, he is still a good sword."

Fujino didn't say much, and that was all he could say to Keith.

Then, he took out a USB drive and handed it to Mira: "As for the anti-princess and anti-monarchy groups, it's actually quite simple. I have a list here of the leaders of the anti-monarchy groups. You can catch them according to the list."

"what?"

Mira was stunned for a moment: "You are, are you asking me to catch them all and put them all in a concentration camp?"

"...?"

Fujino's mouth twitched, and he couldn't help but complain in his heart: "Ha, what are you thinking about as a princess?"

"You still want to imitate your uncle and have a grand European server S3 season?"

Fujino looked at Mira in front of him and inexplicably felt that a mustache had grown at the corner of her mouth. A red band appeared on her right arm, causing his right hand to involuntarily bend slightly at a 45-degree angle.
