Chapter 14 6. Detective Boy's Worry

"President, Mr. Mitsuki." Recently, as soon as Miko Chaijin saw President Ikegami or Mitsuki Shunsuke, he kept begging them. The Arabian Prince—His Highness Ali is going to hold a banquet in Japan, and I heard that the president and Mr. Mitsuki were invited. "Detective boy, do you want me to take you to the banquet again?" President Ikegami teased him. But Shunsuke Mitsuki on the side showed a serious expression and said: "Detective boy, why do you want to attend His Highness Ali's banquet? Is there any reason?" "No, no! I just want to go and see."

"Look? What do you want to see?" "Hmm... By the way, isn't our newspaper also published? There is a ruby ​​inlaid on His Highness Ali's turban, which is said to be worth tens of millions of yen, so I want to take a look at that expensive ruby." Hearing Miko Shibasumi's words, President Ikegami and Mitsuki Shunsuke looked at each other in surprise. "Hello, detective boy." As he said that, the expression on President Ikegami's face became serious and he said: "What do you mean? Do you think that Phantom will steal His Royal Highness Ali's ruby?"

"Yes, I think it's very likely." "But... Detective Boy." At this moment, Mitsuki Shunsuke, who was standing beside him, said in a soft voice: "The banquet to welcome His Royal Highness Ali will be held tomorrow night, and the phantom monster has just escaped from prison. No matter how elusive he is, it is impossible for him to prepare for such a big case within two or three days!" "Mr. Mitsuki..." Miko Shibajin's eyes suddenly became sharper looking at Mitsutsu Shunsuke. "Phantom Monster has many subordinates, maybe they have planned everything. His subordinates are not ordinary characters, so they will use that weird method to help Phantom Monster escape."

Yuzi Chaijin said lightly, he was afraid that if he continued to speak, he would inadvertently reveal that he was an accomplice in the Phantom Man's escape from prison. Since he couldn't say it, he couldn't even say that he found a newspaper clipping in the room of the building in Ginza Alley. In fact, Arab princes have been visiting Japan recently, all for the following things: The country of His Royal Highness Ali is rich in oil, and countries that want to obtain oil exploration rights have tried their best to make friends with Ali. However, His Highness Ali has always had a good impression of Japan in the past. This time he came to Japan in person to negotiate with the Minister of Foreign Affairs and others, hoping to use Japan's advanced technology to exploit oil.

So if His Royal Highness Ali made any mistakes here, it would be quite detrimental to Japan. Although Miko Shibajin is just a kid working in a newspaper office, he is also worried about this matter. "President, maybe Detective Boy is right to worry, we'd better arrange it." "But we can't take people who haven't been invited!" President Ikegami said rather embarrassingly. "President, I have a way to solve this problem." Miko Chaijin said with a confident smile. "His Royal Highness Ali is staying at a Japanese hotel. Don't you have a good time with the hotel operator, Mr. Kawaguchi? You can ask Mr. Kawaguchi to let me be a waiter in the hotel for a day. In this way, I can stay with His Highness Ali as much as possible. , I think this can somewhat prevent accidents from happening.”

"Well! This is indeed a good way." "By the way, I want to take Cupid with me. Cupid knows Phantom Freak." President Ikegami looked at him and thought for a while, then nodded in approval. Mizushi Chaijin had already let Cupid smell the administrator's uniform and hat. He thought that the uniform should have the body odor of Phantom Monster. If he really appeared, Cupid's sense of smell would be able to help.
