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

Chapter 393 Makoto Kusakabe: Rei Furuya, born evil...

Conan's gaze was fixed on Chen En, who was crouching down, listening to Ai Haibara's whispers.
A sense of sadness inexplicably welled up in my heart.
Damn it, I was here first! Whether it's solving a case or deducing a mystery, why... Hey, I'm not Robin, why am I feeling sad? It's none of my business, I'm just curious what Ai Haibara said.

Chen En stood up and saw Inspector Shiratori looking at him suspiciously. Inspector Shiratori then asked,
"I want to know why? How was this result arrived at?"

"Just because the mail truck didn't arrive on time, you think the person who planted the bomb was a bomber disguised as a mailman? What proof do you have? The mail truck might have been delayed because of the protesters, right?"

Shiratori Ninzaburo had just asked the question

The next moment, Miyamoto Yumi, who had followed, put her hands on her hips and said in an annoyed tone,

"Inspector Shiratori, what are you talking about?"

"That's impossible. These kinds of marches need to be reported to the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department in advance. So our transportation department will explain the situation to public departments such as the post office in advance and activate the contingency plan for the movement route. So it's impossible for it to be delayed because of this."

"Are you questioning the competence of our Ministry of Transport?"

Miyamoto Yumi's words made Shiratori Ninzaburo somewhat embarrassed.
As a veteran officer of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department, he couldn't possibly be unaware of this matter; he just hadn't thought of it at the moment and asked instinctively. However, he coughed twice before continuing, "..."

"Isn't that enough evidence?"

In response, Mitsuhiko from the Junior Detective Club immediately jumped in and said,

"No, that's not true. We've been filming the other side with cameras, so our videotapes should have captured traces of the bomber."

Shiratori Renzaburo nodded slightly and asked.

"What about the camera?"

Mitsuhiko was silent for a moment, then said,

"It was taken by someone else."

Shiratori Renzaburo:?

No way, what is Chiba doing? He didn't even notice the camera being snatched from a kid right there? There's going to be a good show when we get back and Chiba's salary evaluation is about to begin!

"But we left behind the camera's recording card!"

Conan then said that he also wanted to know why Chen En would propose this theory.

Immediately, the group moved in a large procession toward the nearest electronics store that could play the contents of the recording card. After showing his police ID, Shiratori Ninzaburo commanded the store's computer to play the contents of the recording card.

Not long after the filming began, Inspector Megure saw a very familiar-looking person approach Sato and strike up a conversation, only to be slapped by Sato. He immediately asked, puzzled,

"Who is this?"

Takagi Wataru coughed twice and said,
"Inspector Megure, this is me."

Mu Mu Police Department:?
Didn't you say you didn't need to disguise yourself? You disguised yourself and still went to flirt with Sato. You deserved to get slapped by Sato. At most, I'll say a few words to Sato afterward, but don't expect me to punish you.

The video ended quickly, and just as Chen En had said, no mail trucks passed by.

—So, the question is, why did the criminal steal the video camera? Inspector Megure was just about to ask when the phone rang.
He picked it up, held it to his ear, and said...
"This is Megure... Ah? Oh, you found the license plate number, right? Okay, I'm listening. Tell me the license plate number, the route, and which post office the final stop is. I'll handle the rest."

He pulled a notepad from the pocket of Takagi Wataru's shirt next to him, along with a pen, and quickly wrote down the relevant information.

Conan also realized the problem. He leaned against Professor Agasa and analyzed the situation using the professor's voice, finally concluding that the criminal stole the camera not because it had captured anything, but because it hadn't.

—Normally, the cameras here should be able to capture the mail truck.
However, Mitsuhiko didn't film it, and they also noticed that the Junior Detective Club had a good relationship with the police officers, knowing that the officers would most likely choose to review the contents of Mitsuhiko's video camera afterward. That's why they chose to steal Mitsuhiko's camera.

However, they did not know that Mitsuhiko had switched to a different recording card because his card was full, and the card that was stolen was empty.

"That's my entire reasoning."

"Therefore, Mr. Chen En's conclusion is correct. We only need to follow Mr. Chen En's instructions and use the mail truck that should have arrived at the mailbox at that time to deduce the mail truck's final destination in order to complete the arrest."

Inspector Megure was immediately startled.
He clapped his hands and said...
"Yeah, Shiratori, I knew Chen En's reasoning wouldn't be wrong, right?"

"Brother Chen En, what do you think about us posing as government officials at that old post office and lying in wait to catch all the bank robbers in one fell swoop... Hmm? Brother Chen En?"

Inspector Megure turned to look at Chen En, who had been standing behind him, but Chen En had vanished without a trace.

He paused for a moment, then said,

"Let's just go to the post office and wait for Brother Chen En."

"Jianggu Ling..."

Makoto Kusakabe, a top prosecutor in the Tokyo Public Prosecutors Office's Public Security Department, harbors nothing but malice towards Rei Furuya.

Even though Chen En had revealed the truth about the incident during their first meeting, when Chen En became his assistant, Makoto Kusakabe's impression of Rei Furuya only improved slightly.

At least he no longer has such extreme thoughts about making the Japanese public security forces pay the price.

However, Furuya Rei's current behavior still made him frown.

As a prosecutor, even one within the Ministry of Public Security, Makoto Kusakabe wields considerable power within certain limits. If he were willing to employ underhanded tactics, obtaining the information he desires wouldn't be difficult.
Therefore, he noticed that Kazami Yuya, who was working under Furuya Rei, was acting strangely.

This person wouldn't have gone to find Takeo Miura for no reason. To put it bluntly, even Yuya Kazami's authority wasn't enough to make the Japanese Public Security officers guarding him give way. Therefore, Yuya Kazami couldn't possibly have been a member of the Japanese Public Security who actually entered Takeo Miura's hospital room at that time.

Those who can do this are most likely to achieve a zero return.

—He had already been transferred to Nishitama City but returned without authorization, participated in the operation without permission, and even indirectly caused the deaths of several colleagues and injuries to one colleague. He also used the authority of the Japanese Public Security Bureau to conceal his presence there.

This guy is completely devoid of any sense of justice or responsibility to protect public safety; he deceives his superiors and subordinates.

Makoto Kusakabe's face darkened as he noticed that Rei Furuya was even interfering in the recent bombing case.

They immediately started monitoring the situation to see what this guy was up to!
