[Conan] I just want to be a magician quietly

Vespania Kingdom, hunting area, under the cherry tree

Fujiko Mine and Lupin III stood by the car, watching Princess Mira walk step by step to the cherry tree where the Queen of Vespania died.

Fujiko Mine leaned against the car door and turned to look in the direction of Lupin.

"The place I want to go to before I go back is here, where two relatives died. But is it really okay to let her go alone?"

Lupin put his hands in his pockets and looked at Princess Mira's back.

"If we were here, the child wouldn't cry."

At the other end, Princess Mira was not surprised to see the tuxedo man she had met once in Tokyo, standing under the cherry tree, smiling and waving at her.

Mira hesitated and stopped, turned her head and looked in the direction of Lupin III and Fujiko Mine, only to see encouraging smiles on the faces of these two people.

Princess Mira, who had never considered the possibility that the two people by the car could not see a certain old sixth magician, nodded silently in her heart.

Sure enough, these two people are the subordinates sent by the professor.

So Princess Mira walked to Wakaki Ryo and leaned against the trunk of the cherry tree.

"Good day, Princess."

"What have you been thinking about these two days?"

Mira raised her head firmly and looked in the direction of the professor.

"I am very grateful for your arrangement, which allowed me to experience the freedom and happiness that a princess could not experience. I used to think that this kind of life is what I have always longed for.

However, if such freedom is based on the blood of my mother and brother, I will never be able to truly enjoy happiness.

So I decided to take on the responsibility of a princess, and I will be the next queen of Vesbania!"

You are all really good at thinking.

It is clear that Fujiko Mine was hired by Count Giss to let the princess, who had suddenly changed, experience the free time of ordinary people, so he took the runaway princess to play all over the streets and alleys of Tokyo.

However, for Princess Mira, who had a preconceived notion, everything became the professor's order.

Miserable, Gis is really miserable!

Wakagi Ryo moved his fingers and cast a small magic on the princess (synesthesia: an active skill that can amplify/reduce the target's sensory or emotional values).

Looking at the silver-white light ball representing trust on Princess Mira's head, he raised his mouth with satisfaction.

"Professor, you will help me, right!"

"Of course, Princess."

Wakagi Ryo stretched out his right hand wearing a pure black glove and gently touched the princess's hair. From his expression to his body movements, he looked a bit like a bad uncle who abducted ignorant children.

"I will fulfill all your wishes."

Vesbania, Royal Palace

Lupin smiled and took his usual sleeping spray, and quietly poked his head outside the safe where the "Queen's Crown" was stored.

"Hey~ Uncle Thief is coming in~ Hey?"

Lupin III looked at the guards sleeping on the ground, the door was open and the vault was empty. He touched his pocket as if it was normal. The small bomb made of Vesbania ore... Well, it was replaced with a baseball of the same size as expected.

On the monitor screen dedicated to the guards, there was a small, cute version of Fujiko Mine shaking head ornament, and the ornament said in a cute tone, "Sorry, Lupin~" coldly and ruthlessly

Then, a burst of smoke erupted, and the small ornament exploded directly. The huge impact force blew Lupin III to the wall of the vault, directly triggering the vault's protection mechanism.

Countless thick metal fences surrounded the entire vault tightly.

That's right, Fujiko Mine's daily betrayal*1

Thinking this way, it seems that the source of Bayonetta's daily backstabbing of the winery has been found.

Lupin: "Ahahaha, I've fallen into a trap."

Trapped in the vault, Lupin III could only make a miserable phone call to Jigen Daisuke, asking him to bring Goemon (who can cut the moon with a sword), the strongest representative of the surface of the earth, to rescue him.

Mine Fujiko, who had already walked to the gate of the palace with the stolen Queen's Crown, looked at the police cars that had surrounded the palace three layers and three layers of water. She couldn't help but sigh.

"Uncle Zenigata, it's too fast~"

Ignoring the happy daily theft of Lupin's team, in the conference hall inside the palace, Princess Mira and Xiaolan, who had returned safely, changed their clothes again, sat on the sofa, and looked at Count Guise.

"Guise, since Officer Zenigata has asked the police to surround the entire palace,, then it's just right, please invite the guests from Tokyo and Duke Girard to the central garden of the palace. "

Count Guise frowned slightly: "Your Highness, Duke Girard..."

"Before inheriting my mother's throne, I must clean up all the remaining termites in the kingdom. You are on my side, right, Count Guise? "

You can only stand on my side, right?

Mira looked at the blond man in front of her expressionlessly, and the royal majesty naturally emanated from her.

According to the laws of Vesbania, only the king is qualified to judge members of the royal family.

Even though Count Guise also has the right to inherit the throne, Girard is ranked before Guise. It goes without saying that if Girard is allowed to kill the princess, the first thing he will do after taking office is to get rid of Guise.

Compared to a naive princess who has never been trained as an heir, Count Guise, who has real power, is the real thorn in Girard's side.

Count Guise stared at Princess Mira, who was familiar but unfamiliar, in front of him. Why, after only one day and two nights of separation, the princess has undergone such a drastic change?

"Your Highness, the number of people in the country who support Duke Girard is ten times that of you. "

"I have obtained the definite evidence that Duke Girard murdered my mother and brother, the former Queen and Prince of Vesbania."

Mira returned Gis's scrutiny without showing any weakness, and the deep hatred in her eyes could not be faked.

After a long time, Gis bent down and saluted with one hand on his chest.

"Yes, Your Highness."

The blond Earl left the meeting room to carry out the order issued by the princess.

And the imposing Princess Mira suddenly seemed to be deflated at this time, and the whole person collapsed on the sofa, picked up the red tea cup on the coffee table, and then drank it all.

"I didn't realize that Gis's aura was so strong before, and I almost couldn't hold it."

After drinking the black tea and calming down a little, Princess Mira turned her head curiously and looked at Ruomu Liang who had been standing in the shadow by the window.

"So, why did Gis seem to... not see you just now? "

Ruo Muliang turned his head, raised his index finger to his lips, and made a gesture of silence.

"Shh."
