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

Chapter 415 Chain Reaction?

Chen En has received Kusakabe Makoto's message.

He knew why Kusakabe was so suspicious. If anyone knew that Kusakabe would seek an accomplice to infiltrate an illegal organization for investigation, then anyone who wanted to use Kusakabe would definitely create an accomplice and send him to Kusakabe's side.

In this way, he could use Kusakabe Seina's reputation in Tokyo.

— Prosecutors in the Criminal Division can mobilize criminal investigators, but prosecutors in the Public Security Division cannot mobilize the Japanese Public Security Bureau. Makoto Kusakabe's sources of information heavily rely on his clients. Even though he has started participating in various social gatherings now, it will take time to cultivate his network of contacts.

Makoto Kusakabe has yet to overcome his weakness of needing clients to provide information.

Chen En reached out and rubbed his forehead.
This matter might be aimed at him, after all, when Kusakabe Makoto was set up by the Steel Association's executives, it was he who personally rescued him, and later when he dealt with the Spider, he also used Kusakabe Makoto to contact Kujo Reiko.

If someone were to suspect that Kusakabe Makoto has some kind of relationship with him, and thus try to get close to him by approaching Kusakabe Makoto,

This is not impossible. Of course, it is also possible that it has nothing to do with him. Even if Makoto Kusakabe is the top prosecutor in the Ministry of Public Security, he is still a top prosecutor and has some connections among other prosecutors.

Therefore, given that Makoto Kusakabe had already made it clear that he was willing to lower himself, it's not hard to understand why people would take this opportunity to connect with him and leave a way out for those people.

—Check back later.

He probably already has a general direction and approach for the investigation. Since Rei Furuya and Inspector Zenigata are both at the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department, apprehending Curaçao shouldn't be too difficult, but he still needs to monitor the situation closely.
Next, he will need to use that —

"What? Armed helicopters? Near the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department?"

"And a police helicopter was shot down? Is that true?"

Inspector Megure's voice carried a hint of disbelief.

However, this is understandable, because everyone in the control room except Chen En was taken aback by this sudden news, since armed helicopters are no joke.

The previous explosives were relatively minor compared to what we've seen before.

The airspace over Tokyo is controlled by military bases. Any aircraft must report to the military bases in advance, otherwise it risks being shot down. Even if it is not shot down, the military bases should at least give warnings to official organizations.

However, Chief Odagiri of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department now tells him that there has been absolutely no warning of any military bases being deployed.

The armed helicopter suddenly appeared in the air and launched a surprise attack, using its machine gun to shoot down a police helicopter equipped with a capture net and rescue the unidentified intruder who had broken into the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department.

—Have armed helicopters appeared near the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department?
A look of surprise appeared in Chen En's eyes.

As for armed helicopters, it seems that only Gin has personally piloted one in the Black Organization. In the movie, Rum explicitly ordered Gin to pilot an armed helicopter to rescue Curaçao, so it's not impossible that Gin was involved in this operation as well.

However, the reason Gin piloted the armed helicopter to rescue Curaçao in the movie was because Curaçao was handcuffed in a Ferris wheel cabin by the Japanese Public Security Bureau, and they planned to take her and the cabin away together using the hook of the armed helicopter.

The armed helicopters were deployed only after it was confirmed that Curaçao was currently unable to extricate itself.

However, Chen En was certain that the secret door he left in the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department's database could not have been discovered by Gin or Curaçao before this. Even if an armed helicopter was used to rescue people, it would have been after Curaçao was captured. The Black Organization was far less efficient in its operations.

Unless the people rescuing Curaçao suspected from the beginning that she might be arrested during the incursion into the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department, and therefore had armed helicopters ready nearby for a rescue operation—

This is no simple matter, because just transporting the armed helicopters is a difficult task.
If there was no opportunity to use the armed helicopter after Curaçao escaped from the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department, it would have been almost impossible for the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department to bring the armed helicopter out of its previous hiding area during the subsequent investigation and search.

This kind of relentless dedication to ensuring the safety of Curaçao could not possibly have come from Gin.

It's unlikely that Rum would make a special trip to the Tokyo area for this matter. His subordinate Binga was just acting as a masochist in a Pacific buoy yesterday. He's either one of Rum's subordinates who wasn't mentioned in the manga, or someone he overlooked.

—Chen En had previously noticed that the Black Organization had been helping the underworld and plotting to kill him.
The words of Takeo Miura also confirmed this. Although no information about the source of the phone call could be found, he could vaguely sense that the member of the black-clad organization had great power in Tokyo and wanted to kill him as soon as possible.

The only possible conflict between Chen En and the Black Organization that could be confirmed by the Black Organization is the attack on Pisk disguised as Gin.

The only Black Organization members who would want to kill him are either Gin or Ireland, who is close to Pisco. Gin can be basically ruled out, so the person who is rescuing Curaçao now is Ireland, a codename member of the Black Organization.

Chen En's fingers gently stroked his chin.

He wasn't sure if Ireland actually had that much authority. Perhaps it was because Pisco's situation was different that Ireland's authority differed. After all, in the normal timeline, Pisco was executed by Gin because he slipped up.

However, Pisco was directly arrested here, so in this respect, Pisco's status as a veteran was not damaged.
Tick, tick, tick.

Feetish footsteps came from outside. Shiratori Renzaburo, his face somewhat gloomy, pushed open the door to the control room.
"Inspector Megure, how's the situation? If there are enough police officers here, I'll return to the Metropolitan Police Department to participate in the large-scale investigation there, as they are short-staffed."

—Uh, even if we're short of people, we don't need you, do we?

Inspector Megure blinked, and then Shiratori Ninzaburo spoke.

“I just learned that Inspector Zenigata, along with Officer Sato and Officer Chiba, are also at the scene where the incident occurred. They are currently involved in the investigation, and I am a little worried.”

Mu Mu Police Department:?
Why don't you just say you're worried about Sato Miwako?

Hearing this, even Takagi Wataru, who was standing next to him, was taken aback. He hesitated for a moment before saying,

"Inspector Megure, then I'll also..."

"Go ahead, I'm good enough at maintaining order here."

Inspector Megure said generously,
He glanced at Chen En beside him and had a better understanding of the situation.

With Brother Chen En here, whether the Cocoon Game announcement event is chaotic or not is up to him. As long as the police force isn't so large that they can't block the entrance, what's the big deal if one or two people leave? It's no big deal!
