Chapter 240

Kudo Shinichi and Mao Li Ran came to the palace again, but this time Furna did not show up. Aidan said that Queen Lamia was preparing to attend a press conference in a few days.

……

"You mean, those two people were brought to the palace by Lamia?"

"Yes, according to the information sent by our people, the other party seems to have asked the detective to help find the seal that proves the king's identity."

"Ha! Does she think she can convince others with just a dead object? I didn't realize before that this Lamia is so naive..."

……

"Shinichi, what's wrong with you?" Looking at Kudo Shinichi who was standing there in a daze, Mouri Ran asked worriedly.

"Xiaolan... We seem to be involved in a huge trouble..." Kudo Shinichi said in a dry voice. Even someone like him who was used to seeing all kinds of strange cases found it tricky.

"Ok?"

Seeing that there was no one around, Kudo Shinichi pulled Mouri Ran to a corner and whispered her his discovery.

It turned out that when Kudo Shinichi was looking for something, he found a special file. He didn't take it seriously at first, thinking that something that could be shown to him must not be a particularly important document.

So Kudo Shinichi opened it without any precautions, but afterwards, he found many similar things.

There is nothing noteworthy when viewed individually, but when put together, Kudo Shinichi came to an unacceptable conclusion - Queen Lamia may not be the real Queen Lamia.

clap clap.

"As expected of Neon's famous detective."

Before Kudo Shinichi could finish his words, he was interrupted by applause, and saw Gabriel standing at the door with a group of unfamiliar people.

Kudo Shinichi's pupils dilated.

Seeing the current situation, what else does he not understand?

"You arranged all that just to make me discover this." Kudo Shinichi couldn't help but ask.

All of this... happened too coincidentally.

If it wasn't arranged by someone, how could they know such a secret?

Seeing everyone acting as if they were used to it, Kudo Shinichi felt that everything he did was guided by others.

"It's until now that we have to trouble you to come with us."

As he spoke, Gabriel motioned the person next to him to come over. Although the other person did not do anything, he was forcing him to leave with them.

Ran Mouri fearfully grabbed Kudo Shinichi's sleeve.

Seeing that Kudo Shinichi looked unwilling, Gabriel walked up to the two of them.

"You may not believe it, but I really want to be friends with you."

Although he didn't get a response, Gabriel continued to talk to himself, "I don't want to do this, but I have no choice."

"No one forced you to do this. It's obviously your ambition that's at work." Kudo Shinichi looked into the other person's eyes, as if he wanted to expose the other person's disguise without hesitation.

"Pfft, I can't help it if you think so. If 'Lamia' is really my family, I wouldn't do such a thing." Gabriel's eyes were scattered, as if he was recalling some long-lost memory.

"Perhaps, many people would suspect that my father and I were unwilling to accept that the throne was not passed on to us, so we deliberately wanted to pull Lamia down, and even her mother's death was related to us, but it is not true."

“……” Kudo Shinichi didn’t respond, but looked like he was asking, “Do you think I believe you?”

"In fact, people outside the family don't know, but many people in the royal family know that my father has been helping with government affairs, but in fact his health is not good. After all those years of hard work, although he is only in his forties now, he has lost the possibility of having other offspring. And I... I have a boyfriend I like, I can't change, and I don't want to change..."

Kudo Shinichi and Mouri Ran looked at each other in shock. They didn't expect to hear such a secret news.

"So...so..." Mao Lilan stuttered.

"Yes, if my father inherits the throne, what should I do after I take the throne?" Gabriel replied with a smile, "Although this kind of thing is very common here, if the king of a country is like this, the impact is still very big."

"Then why did you go to so much trouble to let us..."

"Didn't I say it? If 'Lamia' is Lamia, even if she really doesn't know anything, with the help of my father, me, and other ministers, it's actually not a big deal. At most, it's just gossip from some people outside."

"But..." Gabriel's eyes were sad. "What I'm worried about is that the real Lamia has met with misfortune. Perhaps you all know that our royal family has encountered many bad things in the past few years. Even my grandfather, the previous king, did not die of illness as the outside world rumored..."

Kudo Shinichi and Mao Li Ran looked horrified.

"Isn't that..."

"Yes, if the current Lamia is really related to the power behind the scenes, I can't believe how much harm she will cause to this country after she firmly sits on the throne."

"I understand. I will help you." Kudo Shinichi answered firmly.

Mao Lilan pulled the other person's arm, but Kudo Shinichi ignored it. Realizing that Gabriel's eyes were on her, Mao Lilan smiled awkwardly.

Unlike Kudo Shinichi who thinks he can save the country, Mao Li Ran thinks that they may not be that useful, right?

But no one noticed his thoughts.

Kudo Shinichi was originally forced to be taken away... but ended up joining voluntarily.

Mao Lilan was helpless. Although she felt that there were still many things she didn't understand, but Shinichi... forget it, Shinichi had confirmed that there would be no danger, so she shouldn't think too much about it.

……

"At this time, Kudo Shinichi and Gabrielle have gathered together, right?" Funina looked at the cars driving outside and spoke with some anticipation, "Then Mr. Villette, what do you think they will do next?"

"I don't know what they will do, but I know very well that Ms. Funina, you really need to worry about your own safety." Villette said helplessly.

After coming here, he originally wanted to travel to other places, see different scenery, and experience a different life.

But before he found a chance to leave, Ms. Funina was involved in this troublesome matter.

As partners who have worked together for more than 500 years, although there have been some things that happened that neither of them wants to mention again, they still have a very tacit understanding when working together.

"Oh, don't worry, it's not what you imagined. Although there are many restrictions, the power of the Eye of God is not completely unusable."

"Can... ..."

After the matter of Fontaine was over, although Fucarus destroyed the throne of the water god with his own death and returned the power that originally belonged to Villette, allowing him to forgive the sins that the people of Fontaine had carried since birth.

And Finina had been playing the role of "Water God" for more than 500 years without knowing it... But Fukalos was not so cruel to Finina. After she left, she gave Finina a gift.

It is because of the existence of this gift that Furninna, like Furkalos, is full of tolerance for human nature.

Can... ...

Although Violet is a young dragon that has only been in the world for more than 500 years, he has always lived in the human world.

Unlike Fucaros who loves everything about human beings, he has witnessed the darkness of human nature and has done some things against his will even though he knew the truth.

Although they are stronger than ordinary people, if he really underestimates these ordinary people, considering that Finina is unable to exert the full power of the Eye of God, he is really worried that Finina will be in danger where he is not looking after.

"Okay." Furninna said helplessly, "Then I'll always follow you."

Human nature! !

So noble and so despicable...

"A guest who came uninvited just to eavesdrop on our conversation outside?" Villette frowned and looked out the window.

Although it was a bit unexpected, Gin never thought from the beginning that he would completely fail to attract the other party's attention. He had experienced these people's abilities in Neon.

"Without your permission, I don't think I would have come here so easily. Am I right?"

"One of my people is in the hands of your companion." Gin spoke, seemingly not worried at all about exposing his demands and being controlled by others.

"As the Grand Inquisitor, my existence is to enforce the justice of the law, so... why do you think I will cooperate with you?" Villette just felt that the person in front of him was very strange, as if he was sure that he would be controlled by the other party.

"If that person tells it... her life in the organization will probably be very difficult in the future, right?" Gin mentioned the existence of the organization casually.

"I hope that next time we meet, we can become partners." After saying that, Gin left the way he came.

Although Gu Qiyuan has never been a weak point for these people, using Gu Qiyuan to threaten them always works.

Gin covered his chest, maybe the result would be different this time?

the other side

Norn, who had been on guard against Rum for a long time, did not reveal the news of Kudo Shinichi's existence to Rum. Seeing that his plan was progressing smoothly, Rum began to consider how he would trick Gin next time.

No, that's not right.

That gentleman will not allow Johnnie Walker, Muran Tam and other captured people to continue living. After this matter is over, there will probably be a major reshuffle in London.

If I really make this happen...

Rum gave up the idea of ​​tricking Gin and instead thought about how to make Gin contribute in this incident.
