Conan: Begins to collaborate with Miss Bayonetta and become famous

The first year of the Meiji era (1868)

From the end of the Tokugawa shogunate to the Meiji era——

The old shogunate army, which was defeated by the new government army in the Battle of Toba and Fushimi, fled Edo and continued to fight in various parts of Tohoku.

Hijikata Toshizo, the deputy leader of the Shinsengumi, was also a member of the old shogunate army. Hijikata Toshizo landed in Ezo (Hokkaido) with the old shogunate army and entered Goryo Castle in Hakodate.

The snow fell heavier that night.

Hijikata Toshizo paid a visit to Machida Masanori, who was a seafood wholesaler in Hakodate, in a room with an alcove, in the dim candlelight.

The two men sat facing each other, and behind Hijikata Toshizo was a folding screen with paintings of pine trees and deer.

Hijikata, wearing a French military uniform, placed his beloved sword, Izumi no Kami Kanesada, beside him.

Zhengde, overwhelmed by the opponent's imposing manner, swallowed his saliva and asked: "Is this the Star Edge Knife?"

Masanori took out a long sword from the box and handed it to Hijikata.

Hijikata silently raised the long sword, turned his wrist, and stared at the long sword, which corresponded to the star-edged sword made by Goryokaku Castle.

There is a star-shaped pattern like the five-ryokaku on the blade.

Hijikata put down his sword and was about to stand up and say goodbye when he suddenly noticed someone behind the sliding door.

at the same time.

"Bang!"

Several men with guns and muskets suddenly kicked down the sliding door. "Bang!" They rushed in and pointed at the earthly party: "Don't move!!"

“It’s the government army…”

Hijikata immediately pressed the blade of the star-edged knife with his thumb.

"Hichikata! Die!"

A government soldier raised the long sword in his hand, but was overwhelmed by the devil-like momentum of the Hijikata and stopped.

"What happened? Why did you stop? Don't waste such a good opportunity!"

Hijikata took a step forward, quickly pulled out the star-edged knife, and cut off the candle with one stroke. Suddenly, the whole room was dark.

“Aaaaaa——!”

Government soldiers were killed one after another, and the Turkish side chopped down from the left shoulder of a soldier, cutting off the soldier's body.

One of them took a step back, drew his sword quickly, and pulled out the blade at a speed that was barely visible to the naked eye. The heads of the two soldiers fell to the ground.

Then he killed another soldier from bottom to top.

The partition behind the screen opened a gap, and other government soldiers were lurking inside the partition.

Hearing the sound of the partition opening, Hijikata turned his hand and grasped the knife, stabbing it into the screen behind him.

"what!"

The government soldiers behind the screen screamed, with ferocious expressions on their faces, and fell down one after another.

Hijikata pulled out a long sword from the screen and wiped the blood off the blade with the screen.

Hakodate, Hokkaido.

In the collection warehouse of the Fujiang Group, a large number of mobile team members were busy, and Baijiu was standing in front of the screen next to the stairs on the second floor.

"…….star?"

In the center of the screen, there is a star-shaped red and black scar, and in the center of the scar, there is a long and thin hole.

Baijiu turned his head to look at the busy mobile team members. Conan walked beside him, wandering around and observing this huge collection vault.

"How is it? Kudo, have you noticed any unusual behavior recently, like someone is secretly monitoring you or something?"

"No." Conan silently raised the frame: "It's as if nothing happened. Nothing has changed from the past."

"It was so quiet that it was a little scary. I always felt like there were countless eyes staring at me in the dark."

"By the way," Conan asked, "Since you are lurking in the Black Organization, have you received any news about the investigation of me?"

"Including whether Gin has any abnormal behavior?"

"Nothing happened." Baijiu hid Rum's request to investigate Kudo in his heart: "You are lucky."

"Gin was operating in Australia during those days, and even if he was really in Tokyo."

"He won't make any moves. From what I know about him, he basically doesn't remember the dead."

"Because he killed so many people."

Conan shrugged. "I hope so. I hope it's really as it seems. There's nothing going on. I can spend this period of time peacefully."

"But." Conan smiled calmly: "In a sense, I have to thank Kidd for covering up the storm for me."

“It’s like people have forgotten this memory.”

In front of the large safe on the first floor, the head of the family, Takuzo Axe, stared at them anxiously.

He was a little thin, with a long beard, a very high hairline, and a carp-shaped hairstyle, with his head tilted long to the left and right.

"Nothing unusual here."

"Have you checked that side?"

"Don't forget it."

Beside him, Inspector Ginzo Nakamori of the Metropolitan Police Department's Second Investigation Division puffed out his chest and said, "Don't worry!"

"It has been confirmed that the dagger is in the safe. It is now ten o'clock at night. In two hours, the safe will definitely not be opened."

Inspector Nakamori said in a decisive tone.

"Officer! We found a Kidd notice here!"

"Can you show me the preview?"

Takuzo leaned next to Nakamori and looked at Kid's preview book together.

"It's midnight today."

"I'm here to take away the two short swords of Tokugawa Eiryu from Afue Takuzo's collection - Kaito Kid."

At the end of the trailer, there is a mark exclusive to Kidd.

"Ah! Damn it!! This damn Kidd!!!"

Inspector Nakamori glared at the notice fiercely, his fists clenched tightly, and his mood for arresting Kid was the same as usual.

Takusan turned his head and stared in the direction of the entrance.

In front of the entrance, there was a metal detector in the shape of a gate.

Nakamori said slowly: "You can continue to use the metal detectors exported. You should be on high alert at ordinary times, but..."

"After all, the other party is Kidd, so it's better to be safe than sorry."

Takuzo looked at the artworks in the library and sighed, "It took me a long time to decide to sell my grandfather's collection of artworks..."

At this moment, the phone in Takusan's pocket rang: "Excuse me, there's a call..."

Takuzo took out his cell phone and left from everyone's sight.

Inspector Nakamori shouted to the mobile team members on the second floor, "Kid is a famous cross-dresser! Anyone who walks out of the building, even if they are police officers, must be carefully checked!"

"yes!

Two police officers stood in front of the gate of Fujiang Residence.

Then, a truck drove up and a police officer stopped the truck and walked to the driver's seat: "No entry tonight."

The police officer said, and the driver, who was shielding his eyes with his hat, took out the documents and said, “I’m here to pick up the scroll for restoration.

"please wait for a moment."

The officer shone a flashlight at the driver.

The driver hurriedly blocked the flashlight with his hand, but immediately looked at the police officer and raised the brim of his hat.

He smiled mysteriously and said, "Officer, you have worked hard."

After confirming that the photo on the document matched the person himself, the police officer left with peace of mind and signaled to another police officer.

The gate opened and the truck drove off in the direction of the collection vault.
