The establishment of the Time Travelers Alliance began in the first year of Conan

Chapter 61 Heiji! Get ready to go!

For these forces that joined together to investigate the "Gray Side", the clues they found disappeared when they reached Tokyo.

The alliance will not let them easily find out what happens next.

……

"So, Dad, this matter involves the disappearance of many scholars?"

After receiving an invitation from the military, Heiji was finally able to sit down and have a good talk with his father about this matter.

Hattori Heizo pressed the cigarette in his hand hard into the ashtray.

This was the first time the ashtray in my house was actually put to use.

Mars made a slight hissing sound in the remaining tea.

In fact, Hattori Heizo doesn't like smoking, but it makes him feel better now.

He patted the seat next to him, "Come sit here, Heiji, and I'll tell you everything I know."

——It has been a long time since Heiji heard his father speak in such a "gentle" tone.

To be honest, he was not used to his father being like this.

But he still sat down next to his father obediently.

Hattori Heizo patted his son's shoulder and said, "The situation is already very serious. In fact, I don't know much."

“But Dad, you’re the Metropolitan Police Inspector!”

Heiji leaned forward, letting his father's hand fall back onto the armrest of the sofa.

He still knew what kind of position his father held.

"They can't possibly—"

"As I said, the police only played a supporting role in this incident. They rarely revealed any useful information."

"But," the man whom Heiji secretly called "fox-eyed stinky dad" squeezed out a familiar cunning look from the corners of his narrowed eyes.

"Fortunately, I've been a police inspector for so many years and I still have a few friends, so I know a few things."

"We are facing a war, and the enemy's goal is to destroy all our weapons and equipment!"

In fact, this is exactly the backup plan of the CYZ Alliance——

Human Civilization Protection Plan.

The purpose of this plan is to destroy all lethal weapons of all organizations and forces except the CYZ Alliance.

One of the most extreme executive-level councilors even proposed establishing a "human protection, resettlement and development system" with the ZC-01 as its core.

"Hmm, sounds a bit like a runaway servitor."

——This is Lin Sheng’s evaluation of this plan.

Of course, this plan was rejected by Lin Sheng.

He didn't really want to be the emperor, and to be honest, just dealing with the affairs of the entire alliance during this period was enough for him.

"And the alliance can't pin its hopes on me."

He rarely participated in the next executive-level meeting, of course, via video.

"I know that at the moment, the only way the Alliance can directly counter Him is through the Transmigrator Effect."

"But the research on APTX-4869 has proven that if the alliance truly develops on the right track, it can fight against Him on its own."

In short, Lin Sheng did not want the alliance to regard him as some kind of savior.

He admitted that he had a bit of a savior or hero complex. Who doesn't want to be the one who turns the tide?

But if I really do that, then what is the difference between me and Conan.

"Planning one's own life and the fate of humanity in the hands of one person is absolutely unacceptable. We must be extremely cautious in utilizing the Transmigrator Effect. We still have almost no understanding of it."

Of course, in the end, Lin Sheng partially agreed to the plan -

The section on the destruction of weapons of mass destruction.

"Weapons of mass destruction like nuclear weapons are still too dangerous. Now the [Real Timeline] and [Story Timeline] are rewriting a main plot based on the addition of the Gray Side."

"Considering the subsequent plans regarding the [Absolute Time Node], we cannot take the risk of subsequent cases involving nuclear weapons!"

"If that happens, Conan's stimulation threshold will be raised to an extremely high level in an instant!"

……

So this is the plan of the "Gray Party" that several countries came up with after careful investigation and exchange of information and opinions with each other -

This organization is trying to eliminate "nuclear weapons"!
"Whether it's kidnapping or killing scholars studying theoretical physics and nuclear physics, or sneaking into a military base to steal a nuclear bomb..." "This is just the beginning."

On the phone, the admiral was telling the president the seriousness of the matter, "I believe their ultimate goal is to become the only organization in the world capable of manufacturing and using nuclear weapons!"

Hattori Heizo recalled several conversations he had with his friends.

The implications contained in those words even made him feel a little creepy, and his face became even more serious.

This matter involves too much and covers too wide a scope.

"If you do go to the afternoon meeting, remember, Heiji, don't trust anyone for the time being!"

"Dad, you mean—"

"They have an undercover agent inside the police!"

Hattori Heizo was pleased that his son had thought of this so quickly, and he nodded and continued.

To be honest, this incident was beyond the expectations of the "Gray Party", because as their organization developed, many government officials and even military personnel who believed that the Gray Party was the righteous side also joined in.

"We believe this is the potential impact of Kudo Shinichi on the [real timeline]," said Shigenobu Hitomi. "Regardless, for a detective, the pursuit of justice is clearly a principle."

This kind of behavior, which originated from a certain detective's subconscious, created a number of murder cases with ridiculous reasons and created a group of "incompetent" police officers.

"Naturally, there will also be a group of people who pursue a sense of justice, such as some detectives, or those who discover traces of the Gray Party and secretly help them."

Such acts of "betrayal" cannot even be traced back.

Because "Science Frontiers" did not invite or contact them, they completed the work purely out of a pursuit of justice and conscience.

"Not even just the police, but the military, the political world, even all of Japan!"

As a man who is recognized in the comics as having extremely strong reasoning ability, comparable to Kudo Yusaku, Hattori Heizo was very keen to observe several unnatural behaviors even of his own boss.

If even the Superintendent of Police was...

Thinking of this, Hattori Heizo's heart sank quickly again.

"However, no matter what, these people can't openly oppose this action. This action is the unanimous decision of several major powers!"

Hattori Heizo placed a hand on his son's shoulder.

“Listen more, watch more, and think more.”

Having said that, Hattori Heizo's expression became a little unnatural, and he put on a commanding tone.

"Remember to tell me everything you saw when you come back!"

Hattori Heizo was very suspicious of his boss.

Why did that old fox agree to my leave application at this very moment? Does he really want me to deviate from the center of the incident?

Fortunately, I recommended my son.

Thinking of his son's good achievements in the detective profession, the father, who usually has a serious expression and is unsmiling, smiled at Heiji.

"Anyway, just be a good detective!" His tone was somewhat relaxed and relieved.

Heiji suddenly jumped up from the sofa. "Huh? Dad, do you agree that I can become a detective in the future?"

"I didn't agree with you in the future!"

Hattori Heizo rapped the coffee table with his knuckles, but the hint of a smile in his narrowed eyes betrayed him, "Remember to use your detective instincts in the meeting!"

Deliberately dragging out the ending tone, Heiji felt that he had regained the familiar feeling.

"Eh? Dad, be careful! I won't tell you what I saw when I get back, okay?"

"You little brat!" It was a rare opportunity for him to have a quarrel with his son, so Hattori Heizo couldn't help but say a few more words.

"Heiji," he said, looking closely into his son's eyes, "Anyway, you must be careful. Do you understand?"

……

Finally, it was time to say goodbye.

Standing at the entrance, Hattori Shizuka had never felt that a noon was so short.

Her fingers unconsciously pinched the corner of her clothes, and the midday sun shone through the traditional wooden sliding door.

Finally, she stuffed an amulet into her son's pocket.

"Anyway," the usually strong woman couldn't help wiping away tears, "be careful about everything."

“It’s just a meeting!”

Heiji smiled and ran towards the military vehicle that was already parked on the side of the road waiting for him, "Don't worry, Mom!"
