Ran Mouri and Shiho Miyano / A Great Detective Must Fear Nothing

In any case, it seems unlikely that this thing will become widespread in the short term.

Conan, on the other hand, seemed quite interested.

However, he simply couldn't afford the eight-figure monthly expense, so he could only wait and ask Jiang Hang if there was a cheaper mini version.

If all else fails, he could try to ask Professor Agasa to create a similar program for him.

This shouldn't be too difficult for Professor Agasa, right?

Perhaps?

Conan thought to himself with some uncertainty.

In short, after Jiang Hang personally experienced the effects of the plugin, and also had Inspector Megure try out the low-spec mode of the plugin, he discovered that the effect of this thing was not as good as he had imagined, and there was still a lot of "room for improvement". After that, Jiang Hang asked Inspector Megure, who was slightly relieved, about the situation here.

"Since you already know about this from Wataru Takagi, I won't hide it from you anymore."

"Actually, Wataru Takagi only knows some basic information; only a few people know the real details of the case,"

Inspector Megure quickly explained the situation of the case.

According to Jiang Hang's understanding, the police have not yet determined the specific details and composition of the gang.

However, it can be confirmed that this accomplice's position in their gang was not that of a low-ranking thug.

He's at least at the level of a third-in-command.

Once his physical condition improves slightly, the police will be able to find a way to extract information about all the members of his gang from him.

"He must know a lot of the gang's secrets. We even suspect that the gang has some insiders in the bank and the police station, which is why they were able to carry out the robbery so smoothly."

Inspector Megure whispered his suspicions to Jiang Hang.

"Actually, we did this to lure out the mole and see if he would act prematurely because he was worried that his identity would be exposed by that guy."

"So, apart from a few of our old buddies from the Third Division, most of the police officers here are members who were responsible for tracking down that gang back then..."

Inspector Megure mentioned some coincidences in the case: the perpetrators escaped the bank precisely before the police arrived, and avoided the most heavily guarded areas on their escape route, as if they were aware of the police's movement.

That's why he had such doubts and made the current action plan.

It was precisely because this matter involved a mole within the police force that it could easily damage the image of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department if it were to be revealed, so Inspector Megure had previously only wanted to resolve the case discreetly.

However, since Jiang Hang had already taken the initiative to approach him, and the other party had essentially thrown it away themselves, Inspector Megure hesitated for a moment before finally telling Jiang Hang the information.

Hearing Inspector Megure's words, Jiang Hang began to look at Inspector Megure in a different light.

Although when faced with murder cases, I often can't find the right approach and can only solve the case with the help of detectives.

However, given his more than 20 years of experience and the fact that this case wasn't a murder, Inspector Megure seemed quite reliable.

If, as Inspector Megure suggests, the member arrested by the police knew the secrets of these gangs, it's hard to say whether the gang leader would be willing to take the risk to rescue him.

But those traitors definitely want the other side to die quickly.

After all, every minute the other side lives increases the threat posed by these moles.

Next, Inspector Megure only needs to find those who look the most nervous and then test them individually.

Jiang Hang nodded as he listened to Inspector Megure's plan.

"Then I'll help too. You know how observant I am, Brother Megure. If there really is a mole on your side, I think he shouldn't be able to escape my eyes."

At this point, Inspector Megure naturally wouldn't refuse Jiang Hang's kind offer.

However, he still reminded Jiang Hang to be careful.

If you discover the identity of the mole, there's no need to hesitate; after all, the mole most likely has a firearm on him.

If you have the chance, take the other party into custody to prevent them from becoming desperate and causing trouble in the hospital.

Chapter 532: Ran Mori and Miyano Shiho

As time went by, it soon became afternoon.

Without any other circumstances, finding the so-called "mole" among a group of plainclothes police officers is not so simple.

After all, these moles have been lurking in the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department for so long, their mental fortitude must be up to par.

At least under the condition that one-on-one interrogation is not possible, in order to avoid alerting the enemy, even Jiang Hang with his Eagle Eye could not so easily confirm the other party's undercover identity.

However, after a morning of patrolling, Jiang Hang still had one or two key suspects in mind.

The next step is to confirm the identity of their mole.

"So if those robbers don't show up, are you planning to stay in the hospital and wait for them to appear?"

After listening to Jiang Hang's explanation, Miyano Shiho asked a question.

Her original idea was that if Jiang Hang could catch the group of robbers in the morning, then there should still be some time left in the evening.

But who knew that the group of robbers never showed up at the hospital? No matter how capable Jiang Hang was, it was impossible for them to conjure up robbers out of thin air.

Jiang Hang helplessly spread his hands towards Miyano Shiho.

"I've already identified a few suspects. Anyway, the suspect who was taken into custody by the police will be transferred by the police by tonight at the latest. This afternoon is the last chance for those robbers. I think they will make their move no later than three or four o'clock this afternoon."

It looks like today's plans have completely fallen through.

And Conan is the same.

Today is supposed to be his discharge day; he has already completed the discharge procedures.

He was originally planning to go out for a nice meal with his childhood friend and Kogoro Mouri to celebrate.

As a result of the case, he postponed the celebration to the evening, using the excuse that he wanted to wait until his friends got out of school before celebrating together. He then changed into a hospital gown and prepared to stay in the hospital for another half day.

He also had Ran and Jiang Hang covering for him, and that Kogoro Mouri was indeed a confused old man who was already happily watching Yoko Okino's idol show at home.

So it's true that these detectives think differently from normal people.

While muttering this to herself, Miyano Shiho still chose to stay at the hospital after having a tasteless lunch with Jiang Hang. She watched as Jiang Hang disguised himself as the suspect being controlled by the police, secretly took over the suspect's identity, and lay down in the suspect's ward.

As for the real suspect, Jiang Hang had already inserted a Tranquilizer Dart into him, then disguised him briefly before sending him to Conan's original private hospital room.

The people currently in charge of guarding this ward are Miyano Shiho and Ran Mori.

The two of them don't usually talk much.

However, since there were only the two of them and the suspect lying in bed who was unlikely to wake up before nightfall, they naturally found some topics to talk about.

Ran knows that Miyano Shiho is a very skilled doctor whom Jiang Hang found from abroad, and she usually performs physical examinations for Professor Agasa and Conan.

So, while Conan was away, Ran took the initiative to ask Miyano Shiho about Conan's current physical condition.

When asked this somewhat sensitive question, Miyano Shiho gave a rather cautious answer.

After all, the possibility that the other party might still have cognitive biases was something she raised with Conan, so answering this kind of question naturally requires some skill.

In short, after avoiding any mention of Shinichi Kudo, Miyano Shiho carefully answered the question, while also inquiring about Ran Mori's current health condition to confirm her current state.

Although she is not an expert in mental health, she does have some knowledge of it.

However, Ran didn't seem too keen on discussing this topic. After a brief chat, the conversation naturally turned to Jiang Hang.

When the conversation shifted from Conan to Jiang Hang, the initially awkward and tentative exchange became much more relaxed.

After all, although Ran Mori and Jiang Hang had dealt with each other quite a few times, they didn't really know much about each other.

Miyano Shiho knew that the Jiang Hang, so she didn't feel any pressure when talking about Jiang Hang.

From the cases she had seen the other party solve, to their style of doing things, and her complaints about some aspects of their personality.

"So, Haibara, you care a lot about Mr. Jiang Hang?"

Upon suddenly hearing Ran Mori say this, Miyano Shiho's expression froze.

Ran Mori usually gives people the impression of being mature for her age, or rather, like a virtuous wife and loving mother.

After all, her parents separated when she was young, and her father was unreliable, so apart from Shinichi Kudo, Ran Mori always acted normally in front of others.

Seeing the gossipy look on Ran Mori's face, Miyano Shiho realized that Ran was actually a 17-year-old girl in the middle of puberty, and it was normal for her to be interested in such things.

However, she was unwilling to reveal her true feelings to the other person.

So she coughed lightly.

"After all, he is my boss, and I am hoping that he will arrange a better laboratory for me next year so that I can devote myself more to my research work."

Looking at Miyano Shiho's appearance, Ran Mori observed her carefully but couldn't see anything wrong.

Then she put on a curious look again.

"Then, may I ask how far Jiang Hang's relationship with Ms. Yuno and Ms. Shizuka has progressed?"

"I've noticed that Jiang Hang always takes one of the two women with him when he goes out to solve cases. I've been wondering about this for a long time, but I've always been too embarrassed to ask him about it."

At this point, Ran Mori also became quite gossipy.

"I heard that when Jiang Hang acquired Eito Studios, he had some kind of connection with the daughter of a Mafia behind that studio?"

"It seems there's another girl who was rescued by Jiang Hang. She's now working at a bakery not far from his office and often brings Jiang Hang pastries and bread?"

"I heard all this from Conan and my dad, so, is Jiang Hang still in contact with those girls?"

Hearing Ran Mori casually name several girls who had connections with Jiang Hang, Miyano Shiho subconsciously clenched her fists.

"I usually stay in the lab and don't pay much attention to these things. I'll let you know if there's any progress between them," she said through gritted teeth.

Chapter 533: A Great Detective Must Be Fearless

Jiang Hang, who had disguised himself as a suspect, was patiently waiting for the mole on the robbers' side to become restless first.

But after receiving various rewards, his already exceptionally sharp sixth sense suddenly made him realize that someone was talking badly about him behind his back.

He turned his head in confusion to look at Conan lying on another hospital bed not far away, and then muttered to himself, "Who would talk badly about him behind his back?"

It's probably not Conan.

He's been so gentle with Conan lately, and hasn't bothered him much in the last few months, so he figured Conan wouldn't dare to show any dissatisfaction towards him.

The police officers, including Inspector Megure, always treated him like a god and worshipped him, so such a thing was impossible.

So, it was the mole who found out about him and is now getting anxious, secretly cursing him behind his back?

It couldn't possibly be Miyano Shiho and Ran Mori, those two girls, secretly gossiping about him behind his back.

Having inadvertently guessed the truth, Jiang Hang changed his position and continued lying on the hospital bed. At the same time, he used his mind to control Altair to look down from the sky and confirm the situation around the hospital.

From noon until 2 p. m., the entire area around the hospital was calm and peaceful, as if there were no accomplices of the robbers at all.

However, Jiang Hang was not in a hurry at all, because in order to create an opportunity for the mole, Inspector Megure did not intend to arrange a private room for his current accomplice in the robbery. The door to the room was open, and there were two or three other patients in the room besides Conan.

Of course, Inspector Megure only mentioned this to a few of his trusted confidants; the ordinary patrolmen obviously had no idea about it.

Around 2 p. m., a few more people started passing by the ward.

Several family members who came to visit the patients were also chatting with the patients on other hospital beds.

In contrast, the hospital bed of the burn suspect that Jiang Hang is now pretending to be is completely empty.

Only an elderly man, around seventy or eighty years old and presumably having just undergone some kind of surgery, would occasionally ask him questions about how he got these burns and how serious they were.

Jiang Hang, true to his character, didn't answer. After asking a few more questions and getting no response, the old man lay back down on his hospital bed.

A while later, a middle-aged man, covered in sweat and looking like he had rushed over, arrived at the ward.

It seems he must be that old man's son.

After arriving, the middle-aged man began to inquire about his father's health.

Jiang Hang casually glanced at the other person and then noticed something interesting.

He looked away and then suddenly coughed lightly, attracting the attention of Conan was lying on another hospital bed.

Conan paused for a moment, then turned his gaze to the middle-aged man who had just walked in.

From the moment I arrived until now, it seems that only this middle-aged man has come into the ward.

Jiang Hang suddenly spoke up to remind him. Did he notice something wrong with the middle-aged man?

Conan carefully examined the seemingly ordinary-looking middle-aged man who was covered in sweat; he appeared to be perfectly normal.

He seemed to be carrying a bag of cream puffs in his arms, which was probably a gift to comfort his father.

It might seem a bit strange to send cream puffs instead of fruit, but perhaps the old man just likes them?

At that moment, the old man seemed to make a gesture as if he wanted to take the cream puff cake from his son's arms, but the middle-aged man refused.
