Hopefully, the fragments have been collected. So far, he has four fragments in his hand, and only the last one is still being purified.

In other words, during this period of time, no desperate events will occur, and Hinata Hajime can even go to various places in the remaining time without worrying about anything happening.

According to Komaeda, this is: great, it's really full of hope.

"…I hope it's not used this way, but as long as Hinata-kun is happy, that's all that matters!" said Nanami Chiaki.

There is still some time before Edogawa Conan and other students start school... Speaking of which, Hinata Hajime always feels that a long time has passed. Why hasn't Edogawa Conan started school yet? And does he stay at home all day when he goes to school? Are elementary school students so free?

Let's not talk about the above for now. Anyway, Conan Edogawa has not started school yet, and Ran Mouri has just returned home from the hospital. Although she said she was fine, her parents were very worried. Not only did they take her out for a walk, they also kept an eye on her all the time, as if to make up for the love they had lost for more than ten years.

Even Kogoro Mouri actually started to prepare to quit drinking, which surprised Conan Edogawa.

This time was the same. Kogoro Mouri was invited by a listed company, which was engaged in collections. They had a very beautiful sapphire, and he decided to exhibit the sapphire. Then, just like the routine, he immediately received a warning letter from the Kaito Kid.

When they received the letter, they invited Kogoro Mori to protect their sapphire.

Kogoro Mouri agreed because he wanted to take Xiaolan out to relax. Since he was taking Xiaolan with him, he must bring Conan along. As for Hinata Hajime, after a period of investigation, it was determined that he was not an undercover agent, so he was invited by Inspector Megure to prepare together in the name of official business.

Thinking that he had nothing to do during this period, Hinata Hajime went there and successfully merged with Edogawa Conan.

"The Thief Kidd?" Hinata Hajime sat on the chair. "I remember that this is a thief who would return the gems even if he stole them?"

"But this behavior is illegal, and it is a great shame for the person whose things were stolen." Conan Edogawa said, "So he must be punished. Now he may be looking for a target, stealing it and then sending it back. What if one day he really takes something away?"

"Or what if he got some confidential documents or heard some secrets through this method?"

Hinata Sou nodded, "Oh, it is indeed scary."

"Hinata brother, aren't you a policeman? How come you don't even know the seriousness of this?" Conan Edogawa was helpless.

"No, I didn't say anything. It was you who suddenly opened your mouth to educate me." Hinata Hajime retorted, "This is your problem, not mine."

Edogawa Conan: ...

"Anyway! We must catch him this time!" Conan Edogawa said, "The Thief Kid."

Hinata Hajime twitched his lips, "Rather than whether or not we can catch the thief Kid, I'm more worried about whether or not you'll pick up another corpse."

"ha?"

"Look here." Hinata Hajime pointed at the people here, "With so many people here, a one in ten thousand chance of something happening, plus you being the unlucky one, something is bound to go wrong."

"Absolutely impossible!" Edogawa Conan denied, "Why haven't you given up on my bad luck setting? And those murders all have reasons, they are not just random killings, some even require very careful planning, how can I know in advance?"

Hinata Hajime: "Doesn't this prove that you are a bad luck god?"

Conan Edogawa: "What about our friendship, Hinata brother?"

Before Hinata Hajime could start comforting the child, Officer Megure came over and called out to him to check on the security. Thinking that he did have a job after all, Hinata Hajime said goodbye to the child and followed Officer Megure. Well, although he had never been a policeman, since he was doing this, he had to do his best to complete it.

Guard against the Phantom Thief Kid the same way he had against the Desperate Remnants.

The moment he stepped into the backstage, his left eye turned red.

…

The guests in the front desk are having fun, the police and the banquet organizers in the back desk are discussing the gems, Kogoro Mori is also here, but Ran Mori is not here. They are looking at the gems and thinking about how to catch the Phantom Thief Kid. Since the Phantom Thief Kid has sent a notice, he will definitely come.

So Hinata Hajime heard a lot of bad ideas here.

"How about we lay in ambush around here? We can rely on common means for security, and as soon as the thief Kid shows up we will rush up and catch him directly!"

"What if the gems are really stolen?"

"Perhaps he has sneaked in disguised as one of us. I suggest searching everyone."

"Eh? Does the guest outside need it too? He may be pretending to be a guest outside."

"We should strengthen security after all."

Inspector Megure listened to the people around him talking at once. He sighed and looked at Hinata Hajime, who was frowning as he listened to the suggestions. "Mr. Hinata, do you have any ideas?"

"Me?" Hinata thought for a moment, "Should I set up some small devices?"

"well?"

"Instead of using infrared equipment, why not try something that makes a sound when the wind blows?" Hinata Hajime said, "Since you don't trust high technology, why not try a primitive method, like a bird trap? If that doesn't work, you can just make a fake one and put it here as bait."

Hinata Hajime assures with his own experience in wiping out the Desperate Remnants that these two methods are very useful for people who have a firm belief in their minds.

For example, he likes to spread rumors everywhere, using something of Enoshima Junko as bait to attract Enoshima Junko's believers, and he can always catch a nest every time, that is, he can always pick out Komaeda Nagito from that group of desperate remnants and throw him out.

Nagito Komaeda was filled with righteous indignation and was determined to destroy everything belonging to Junko Enoshima.

This guy is not stupid, he is even very smart, but he is very persistent in places like this. Every time Hinata Hajime hands him something seriously, he watches him destroy it brutally, and then moves to another place and builds a fake one to continue deceiving the desperate remnants.

Well, the one that Nagito Komaeda destroyed was also fake.

After all, Kamizuru Izuru is the mastermind and a super high school level all-rounder, so a fake one will definitely look more real than the real one.

So Hyuga Hajime even thought that this was okay. Isn't the thief Kid interested in gems? They joined forces with the police and the Suzuki Group to spread a big rumor, exhibit a super beautiful gem, and then set a trap for the thief Kid to jump into it.

It doesn’t matter if you fail, the gems are fake anyway.

Of course, Hinata Hajime knows that this world is safe and normal. He can join forces with the Future Agency to spread rumors. Makoto Naegi supports him unconditionally. The Future Agency is also full of hatred for the Desperate Remnant Party. But this world is not the same. The Suzuki Group needs to consider its face and social credibility, and the police will not do such a thing.

It’s great that the world still considers whether such a plan will have an impact on its own image.

"But we don't know how the Phantom Thief Kid will steal the gems. If we don't know the method, even if we set up a trap, it will be of little use." Officer Takagi touched his chin. "Besides, we don't have time to make a fake one now. The exhibition is about to start, and we can't exhibit a fake gem."

Hyuga Creative: So why did you have to figure it out on the day of the exhibition?

Can't we discuss it together three days in advance?

Oh, yes, he was still in the hospital three days ago, and even now he has a bandage on his shoulder and it is difficult for him to move his right arm.

"Then we can only guard it well."

"It seems that this is the only way."

"Then let's split up and guard around the gem. I don't believe that the thief Kidd can drop from the sky and take the gem right in front of us!"

Everyone agreed instantly, and the organizers showed worried expressions. Hinata Hajime looked at them helplessly, then turned and left. He was now in an injured state. He came here mostly at the invitation of Inspector Megure, and Inspector Megure did not intend for him to catch the monster thief Kid. He just felt a little guilty about the previous misunderstanding that he was an undercover agent of an evil organization.

So I let him go out for a walk under the pretext of work.

The banquet outside was almost over, and everyone was looking forward to seeing the gem. Hinata Hajime refused the waiter's offer of wine, and then walked to Edogawa Conan. At this time, Edogawa Conan had already run around with his childish appearance and personality, and seemed to be planning where the Phantom Thief Kid would come in from.

"Hinata brother, you came out?" Edogawa Conan said: "How is it? What is the police's plan?"

"Yeah, strengthen your defenses or something like that."

Conan Edogawa twitched the corners of his mouth, but considering the plans he had heard after following Kogoro Mori in a few times before, this was indeed normal.

"So where would the Phantom Thief Kid come from?" Edogawa Conan looked at the floor plan here, "It seems that all directions are possible, but these locations are guarded. Could it be that he disguised himself as someone? Brother Hinata, did you notice who is not right?"

"No one is fake." Hinata Hajime said, "Is he good at disguising himself? I seem to have heard the police say that he would pretend to be someone else."

"Yes, the Phantom Thief Kidd knows how to disguise himself. His skills are very advanced. Unless he reveals his flaws, even I can't recognize him."

Conan Edogawa said as he looked at the front desk, "He should be most likely to show up at the gem exhibition, so we must keep a close eye on him."

At this moment, Hinata Hajime's cell phone rang. He glanced at the name and prepared to leave the busy venue to answer the call. Edogawa Conan blinked, "Hinata brother?"

"I'm going to go out and take a call."

"But the gems will be on display soon."

"Aren't you here?" Hinata Hajime said, "It's okay, I'll be back soon."

The call was from an unfamiliar number that Hinata Hajime didn't recognize, but he thought it would be better to answer it. He went to a quieter corridor and answered the phone.

"Hello?"

"Long time no see, Mr. Hinata."

Hinata Hajime blinked, "Mr. Takaoka?"

"It's me." Takaoka Yuliu sat on a bench in the hospital. His voice was tearful, but he couldn't hide his joy. "I'm sorry. I don't know if it's convenient for you now. I just wanted to tell you the good news. Heiyan has woken up."

"He's really awake."

As he spoke, Hinata Hajime heard the other side crying again. He kept saying while crying, "That's great."

"Hmm." Hinata Sou smiled, "That's good news. It looks like you'll be back home soon."

"Once Kuroiwa recovers, we can go back." Takaoka Yuru wiped away her tears, "Thank you, Mr. Hinata, for listening to me."

"No, I'm glad you still remember me at this time."

"How could I forget?" Takaoka Yuru said, "Mr. Hinata, thank you."

Just as Hinata Sou was about to continue speaking, the lights suddenly went out. In the darkness, Hinata Sou heard a groan coming from the hall. He blinked, "Huh?"

"Mr. Hinata?"

"It's okay, it just seems like there's a power outage."

The safe passageway where Hinata Sou was standing was right at the entrance of the stairs. Just as Hinata Sou was about to get out, the lights came on again. Hinata Sou looked around and said, "...it's back to normal."

"Anyway, I won't bother you anymore." Takaoka Yuliu said, "See you later."

"good."

Hinata Hajime hung up the phone, and just then he heard footsteps.

It was said to be the sound of footsteps, but they were very light. If it wasn't for Hinata Sou, it would have been impossible to hear it.

"I didn't expect the little detective to hide here. Did he guess that I would leave?"

A man in white walked in, and when he saw Hinata Hajime, his voice stopped abruptly, and they stared at each other for three seconds.

Hinata Hajime: Who?

Thief Kid: Huh? That's the little detective's voice. Why isn't it him?
