Chapter 415 It’s a pity that I can’t change it
"How's the situation? Is it done?"
"Yes, the arrangements have been made according to your instructions."
In the office, Count Kilard asked his subordinates, and when he got a positive answer, he smiled and nodded.
Because many guests came to the palace today, he specially arranged a sumptuous dinner in the pavilion in the palace garden.
The food is carefully prepared and tastes delicious, ensuring that every diner will die on the way to the hospital.
Among them is the thorn in Kirad's side, the last stumbling block that prevents him from ascending to the throne - Princess Mira.
As for the guests who came all the way from Neon, they died unexpectedly. Kilad could only express deep regret. The country was suffering from internal and external troubles under the governance of his sister Queen Shakra, which led to the sensational poisoning and murder in the palace.
But it doesn't matter. Even though Mira is dead, her legacy is still there. If he takes over as king, he will definitely regain the support of the people in the shortest possible time and lead the Kingdom of Vespania on the road to becoming a powerful nation.
In this way, the spirits of several unfortunate members of the royal family will rest in peace.
It doesn't matter if he doesn't want to eat. There is a remote-controlled bomb on the pillar of the pavilion. As long as he presses the button, the large fireworks will spread the rain and dew to everyone, even saving steps on the way to the hospital.
The plan was a little rough, but Kilard didn't care, and it didn't matter if it failed.
Everyone in the palace belongs to him, and the commander of the Royal Guards next to Princess Mira is just a decoration. As long as he gives an order, hundreds of guards will come out with guns and sweep away Mira and the restless people on the spot.
"It's finally over!"
Kirad put his hands behind his back and looked at the entire palace. Whether it was a conspiracy or a conspiracy, he could kill that little girl Mira.
Can you lose this one?
Impossible, not even in your dreams.
Bang bang bang!
There was a knock on the door, and the subordinate stepped forward to open it. When he saw Liao Wenjie in military uniform, he was immediately stunned.
Liao Wenjie nodded, and without waiting for his subordinates to say anything, he strode into the room: "Earl, there is a small situation over there in the mining area. I made a special trip..."
"etc."
Kilard raised his hand to interrupt and waved his subordinates to go out and guard the door. After the door was closed, he frowned and said: "What's going on? How many times have I told you not to report to me casually about matters in the mining area? How can you... Hey, who are you?"
Looking at the handsome face in front of him, Kilard seemed to see himself in his youth. If he had been so handsome back then, the throne would definitely be his, instead of being passed down by Yan Gou's old father to his younger sister who did not seek to improve.
"My name is Kudo Shinichi, I am a detective..."
Liao Wenjie threw down his hat and looked at Kilard with a smile, the red light in his eyes flashing away.
Skip the foreplay and go straight to the Q\u0026A session.
"Where is the key to the altar?"
"lost."
"???"
Liao Wenjie froze on the spot, took two steps forward and waved his hand in front of Kilard, confirming that the other party had indeed fallen into his inner demon spell. He asked again, but still got the reply that the two keys were missing.
Fortunately, Kirad didn't have any clues. He knew the identity of the thief and the approximate location of the key.
Half a year ago, Kirad sacrificed cannon fodder in exchange for a crustal movement, which gave the Kingdom of Vespania an extremely powerful military potential.
Queen Shakra became suspicious and secretly launched an investigation. She confirmed the connection between the Altar of the Cult of Everything in the Cave Castle and the Vespagna ore. She sent people to steal the two keys to open the altar from Count Kilad's house, limiting his access to the altar. Ambition expands further.
The queen's resourcefulness and methods are not bad, but her heart is not ruthless enough. She wants to use this to put pressure on Kirad to abide by his duty and calm down to be an honest earl.
Unexpectedly, this move only added fuel to the fire, making Kirad, who was already murderous, more determined and shot Queen Shakra and Prince Gil with his own hands.
On the other side, Kilard was eager to clear the obstacles to the summit. On the one hand, he could not stand the Queen's big breasts and lack of ambition, and on the other hand, he was out of strategic considerations of the general environment.
The Visbanian ore is gradually becoming known to the outside world. The small country and its people cannot keep this treasure. If they want to protect themselves before the storm comes, they must mine it as soon as possible and transform it into a mature military armed force.
In addition, he suspected that Queen Shakra had hidden the two keys in the palace. He asked many questions and searched secretly to no avail. He could only wait until he became the master of the palace before digging further.
Liao Wenjie was quite disappointed when he failed to obtain the key, so he chatted with Kirad about the altar and the evil god.
"I admit, I was gambling at that time!"
Kirad said slowly that when he first found the altar, he was at a low point in his life. He had no real power in his hands, and his ambitions could only be written down on paper. He thought, 'Idleness is idle, what if it is true?' mentality, sending people everywhere to search for the two keys.
As luck would have it, finding a needle in a haystack allowed him to succeed.
At that time, the altar was the least reliable of Kirad's several choices. If he could exchange the altar for the throne, he would be 100% happy.
It's a pity that it can't be replaced.
It wasn't until the sacrifice was successful half a year ago and the movement of the earth's crust brought the Vespagna ore that he truly paid attention to the omnipotent Lord of All Things.
It’s funny to say that God’s name is the Lord of All Things, and he came up with this name.
After that, he studied the legendary stories about the battle between good and evil thousands of years ago, and he changed from being suspicious to being wary, fearing that one day a passerby would stand up, dressed in the armor of God, and the screen would be filled with golden light, and he would hack the altar that could grant any wish. .
Out of fear, Kirad spent a lot of manpower and material resources to collect four pieces of weapons in only half a year.
…
Here, the two were chatting in the office. Liao Wenjie was sitting on the boss's chair, while Kilard stood up straight and respectfully, like an employee reporting work meticulously.
Over there, Lupine the Third extended his evil hand towards the target, the Queen's Crown. As expected, he was caught first.
The palace vault doors were opened, the guards were unconscious, and the Queen's crown was missing.
"Ha, ha, ha, so strange, who did it?"
Lupine III scratched his head and found the Q-version doll left by Fujiko Mine in the corner. As the red dots on the toy beat faster and faster, the doll exploded on the spot, and the airwaves caused Lupine III to fly away. to the vault.
Gravity sensor, trigger;
Infrared sensor, trigger;
Thermal sensor, trigger.
After striking out, the anti-theft mechanism of the vault was activated, and Lupine III took the blame and was sealed in an airtight steel cage.
The alarm bells sounded loudly and spread throughout the palace, and he became Fujiko Mine's scapegoat as always.
"Ah ah ah, we are in big trouble now!"
Lupine III leaned against the wall, took out the communicator he carried with him, contacted his two partners, and requested tactical support.
"I'm locked up, can you come pick me up?"
"Ah, this familiar rhythm, don't tell me that the crown has been stolen by Fujiko in advance." Opposite the communicator, Daisuke Jigen, a former professional assassin and current professional gunman, complained speechlessly.
"As expected of you, you guessed it right at once."
Lupine III said solemnly: "Fujiko used the generator made from Vespagna ore to suspend the working time of all the electronic equipment in the vault for 30 seconds, and stole the crown before me."
"Lupine, how come you know so well?"
"Because I made the generator myself, and I also adjusted the 30-second cycle!" Lupine III was full of pride. He was so awesome that Daisuke Jigen couldn't even praise him.
"Dududu————"
"Hey! Hey! Are you still listening?"
…
At high altitude, Daisuke Jigen was gliding past in a fighter plane. Ishikawa Goemon, holding a Zantetsu sword, was sitting cross-legged on the wing of the plane. When the fighter plane approached the palace, he jumped off and faced the wall that was not sure whether it was the ceiling or the ground. Swing the knife.
There was a thick steel wall in the center, which was neatly cut open like tofu under the Zantetsu Sword. Ishikawa Goemon opened five walls in a row and landed accurately in front of Lupine III.
Sheathing the sword, Ishikawa Goemon had a stinking look on his face. Besides chopping a bunch of unnecessary things, he was still worried about not daring to unsheath the sword on Liao Wenjie.
The grudge has become a shadow.
Goemon Ishikawa boarded the plane expressionlessly and left. Lupine III sneaked to a corner of the palace. His goal was never to win the queen's crown, but to find out the truth behind his death.
As for being willing to be locked up in the vault, it can only be said that he was happy with Fujiko Mine and allowed him to successfully steal the crown.
However, Fujiko Mine could not leave the palace. The moment the alarm bell rang, the entire palace was surrounded by police cars. No one was allowed to enter or exit without permission until the crown was found.
By the way, Lupine III knew very well about the security level of the palace and the multiple layers of mechanisms in the vault, and the information about Fujiko Mine was also obtained from him, but...
Lupine III missed one piece of information. He did not mention the speed of dispatching the police after the alarm bell sounded. As a result, Fujiko Mine was able to steal the crown, but was unable to take it out of the palace.
…
In the count's office, Liao Wenjie stood in front of the window, watching the fighter planes roar away, thinking about the exact location of Queen Shakra's hidden two keys and the possibility that the heir to the throne, Princess Mila, knew about it.
The possibility is very high, so I decided to test it with the beauty trick. It doesn't matter if I'm wrong, no one will lose to him anyway.
But when I thought that the other person had the same face as Mao Lilan, I suddenly felt very prickly... It was so difficult to start. If something happened, I would meet Mao Lilan and Conan in the future. It would be embarrassing just thinking about it.
What, star catching?
No need. He used his clever little brain and found that finding the key was very interesting. Only when he really couldn't find it did he consider looking at the stars.
Bang!
The door was violently pushed open, and a man in a khaki trench coat walked into the office, flanked by helpless subordinates.
Interpol's Lupine full-time investigator Yukiichi Zenegata, wherever there is Lupine III, there must be him.
"Count Kilard, Lupine III showed up and the crown was stolen by him. However, he did not board the plane when it left. He is still in the palace. I hope you can do your best to cooperate and help me catch him. Arrested and brought to justice.”
"No problem. Finding the crown is the top priority. I am willing to cooperate with your actions."
Kirad nodded: "If the princess has no objections, Officer Zenegata can check every corner of the palace, but please do not cause damage. In addition, I have asked someone to arrange a dinner, just in an hour. If Officer Zenegata is then If you haven’t caught Lupine III yet, you might as well come to the banquet and have a little gathering, maybe Lupine III will be among them.”
"Thanks, I'll catch him within the hour."
Seeing Kirad's unexpected cooperation, Siangata Koichi breathed a sigh of relief, opened the door and left quickly, taking out the palace map in his arms, which marked several places where Lupine III might be hiding.
Bathroom, bathroom, bathroom…
"You, take off your coat."
Liao Wenjie closed the door, took the suit jacket from Kilard, and thought about having some fun at the dinner party in an hour.
I wasn't interested at first, but when I saw Conan, I couldn't help but want to scare him.
If he guessed correctly, Conan should have deduced the truth about the death of Queen Shakra and Prince Gil. If this is the case, then at today's banquet, he is Count Kilad.
Putting on his suit jacket, Liao Wenjie's body shape and face changed. He was exactly the same as Kilard in front of him, and even his voice was lifelike.
Touching the bomb remote control in his arms, Liao Wenjie couldn't help but smile, opened the door and left...
He put his feet back, closed the door, punched Kilard in the face, and said angrily: "Before I came here, I was sure that you would be beaten up by someone today. If you weren't beaten up by someone, wouldn't I be very shameless?" face."
