DanMachi, My Members Are From Slice-of-Life Anime

Takagi chickened out. She glanced at Conan and thought, "Don't mess with me."

Miwako Sato stepped forward and handed over a statement.

"This is an important clue provided by a hostage named Shino Asada."

Seeing Inspector Megure take the documents and examine them while smoking, Officer Sato continued:

"According to the victims, one of the hostages was a high school girl who infiltrated the enemy's ranks during the robbery. I also received information that the bank employee, Masami Hirota, who was taken into the car, was actually an accomplice of the robbers!"

"What?!" Inspector Megure coughed, accidentally dropping his cigarette onto his crotch.

"Infiltrated the bandits? Sato, are you still dreaming?" Inspector Megure picked up a cigarette butt and put it in his mouth.

Conan suddenly said, "Inspector Megure, I saw it too. That lady was carrying a 1000 million yen check. She doesn't seem like someone who needs to rob a bank."

"Hiss—Holy crap!" Inspector Megure shivered as the cigarette butt burned his mouth.

He quickly drank some cold water, his eyes widening: "A high school student, ten million? And he managed to infiltrate the robbers' ranks as if nothing had happened?"

Inspector Megure punched his palm, "That guy, that person is Kaito Kid! Is his target this time a bank? Has he finally broken his own rules and become a real thief instead of a magician?!"

Conan: "..."

Sato: "..."

Takagi: "..."

Inspector Megure: "What? Why aren't you saying anything!"

What you said makes so much sense, we don't know how to refute it.

At that moment, the main door outside was pushed open again.

Yumi Miyamoto, from the traffic department, poked her head out shyly: "Um, I received a strange emergency call while I was on duty."

"It is said that concerned citizens witnessed the robber abandoning the car and fleeing. They are currently tracking her and hope that the Metropolitan Police Department can locate her cell phone signal."

Yumi Miyamoto was an officer who was urgently called in. If it were a professional detective, they would probably have thought the call was a prank.

Inspector Megure was stunned again: "A kind citizen? Which kind citizen is so careless?"

Oh, there was one before, it's fine now.

Knowing the situation might indeed be unbelievable, Inspector Megure decided to trust his instincts and shouted:

"Takagi, what are you standing there for? Quickly locate the signal source! Sato, take the men and come with me!"

At that moment, in the adjacent office building, a high school girl with short white pigtails was leaning against the door with a video camera:

"I'm curious about that helpful citizen you mentioned. Can I come along?"

"Deputy Section Chief Yuli..."

Inspector Megure hesitated for a moment, then nodded, his expression serious: "I understand!"

A line of police cars roared out, including Inspector Nakamori from the neighboring Intelligent Crime Investigation Unit. He frantically honked his horn, urging his colleagues ahead to hurry up, yelling:

"Kidd!!! I've finally caught you red-handed! This time I'm going to get you!"

……

Ekoda High School, Class 2-B.

Kaito Kuroba, who was cleaning the classroom, was startled by a gasp from his childhood friend Aoko Nakamori.

"What?! Kaito Kid was involved in a bank robbery with over 100 million yen involved? Has he finally transformed from a phantom thief into a ruthless criminal? Just as I thought, Dad was right, Kaito Kid is no good! Don't you agree, Kaito?!"

Leaning on his broom with a black line on his face, Kaito Kuroba, who looks exactly like Shinichi Kudo, responded with "yes, yes, yes."

He thought to himself, "Which bastard is spreading this rumor again? No, I need to investigate this as soon as possible. I can't let those people from the Metropolitan Police Department slander me, Phantom Thief 1412!"

Thinking it over, Kaito Kuroba dropped the broom and said, "Aoko, something's come up, so I'll leave the cleaning duty to you!"

He slipped out of the classroom in a flash.

Aoko stared at the broom lying on the ground, clenching her fists: "Kaito!!!!! You stop right there!"

……

Beika Town 2-chome, Professor Agasa.

The two scientists had been discussing academic knowledge in the laboratory for a long time.

Professor Agasa, who was once speculated by netizens to be the mastermind behind the Black Organization due to Doraemon's overwhelmingly powerful attributes, and Makise Kurisu, who is about to evolve into Doraemon, seem to be about to create scientific sparks.

As a poor student who only wanted to pursue his own great power, Xia Jia idly leaned on the sofa, pressing the TV remote.

A heinous bank robbery occurred at Mitsubishi Bank in Beika Town this afternoon. The robbers shot and killed security guards and then opened fire with submachine guns in the street. Thanks to the prompt and cooperative efforts of the local police, the 19 hostages held by the robbers have been freed.

[One hostage remains, suspected to be Phantom Thief Kid in disguise. Physical characteristics include: female, high school student, bob haircut. Anyone who recognizes this character is requested to contact the Metropolitan Police Department immediately.]

The suspects have been identified as: former bank employee XX, former armed police officer XX, and former teller XX, Guangtian XX. The perpetrators are still at large. The public is warned that the perpetrators are dangerous and armed; if you encounter them, please stay away and call the police immediately.

Xia Jia looked at the girl whose eyes were covered by black barcodes and who looked just like a two-dimensional version of Kato Megumi, and couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of salt soda.

"Cough cough cough, what, what are all these things?!"

"Ms. Kato, you've really made something of yourself! You're used to being an undercover agent, aren't you? You've actually managed to infiltrate the ranks of the robbers."

"And Hirota Masami? Isn't that Ai Haibara's older sister, Miyano Akemi?"

"I remember they robbed a bank and nothing serious happened. They just drove off, abandoned the car, and ran away. They even went back to work as if nothing had happened. How did it escalate like this now?"

Xia Jia was completely bewildered.

But his first reaction now is...

Call to confirm whether the 'anime/manga/internet celebrity visa' provided by the police is actually Kato Megumi.

Chapter 250 Coffee Shop vs. Winery

beep-

The line went dead. Xia Jia clicked her tongue and hung up.

He was certain that Kato must have been involved in the strange incident.

The mastermind behind this bank robbery, planned by Masami Hirota, was actually Gin. Xia Jia wasn't worried about what Gin would do to Ms. Kato; he was more concerned about whether Ms. Kato might inexplicably infiltrate the liquor company as an undercover agent.

However, given Ms. Kato's strange abilities, I should be fine if there's no contact.

So now, all Xia Jia has to do is wait for Ms. Kato's call for help?

While thinking...

Makise Kurisu moved closer to Shaka: "What's wrong? You look so gloomy. Did your wife die?"

Xia Jia raised an eyebrow: "Isn't she talking to me right now?"

Makise Kurisu blushed slightly, glared, and crossed her arms over her chest with her black stockings folded: "You little brat, don't get too cocky."

"Okay. Actually, my wife's sister is dying."

Xia Jia pointed to the news being broadcast.

Professor Agasa chimed in, "What?! New... Conan's been kidnapped! No, this is terrible, this is terrible!"

After reading the report, he hurriedly got dressed, looked for his keys, and prepared to leave.

"Don't be nervous, Doctor. This is a report from noon. The hostages have all been rescued."

"Same here, Shin. That brat Conan always rushes to the front whenever he sees a case like this. He's probably chasing after the robbers again right now. I'm going to stop him."

Xia Jia chuckled and rolled his dead fish eyes... You really know him well.

Shaga shrugged: "There's really nothing we can do. Let's go, Doctor. Bring your tools, I'll take you to find that brat."

……

The container warehouse is located at the west end of Sakura City, near the horse head.

Hirota Masami lit a cigarette and absentmindedly gazed at the coastal scenery.

The other two employees and the armed police officer were happily counting the gold—worth hundreds of millions, filling several boxes, gleaming brilliantly. (Mora?)

It's obvious that 100 million yen in banknotes would weigh at least 1.5 tons, and the police vehicle definitely couldn't carry it all. Even Iwakuni's banknotes are useless if they want to flee the country to avoid trouble.

Only gold, which is traded globally, is the sole equivalent. Although gold is now mostly used to make jewelry and ornaments, it is not commonly seen in the hands of ordinary people.

"Boss, we're rich!"

"Ha, once we hire a ship and cross the border, we'll have plenty of women and enjoy a life like a general!"

The armed police officer winked at the staff, as if to say: So much money... if you divide it among three people, each person will only have 30 million. Why not get rid of that useless woman? Then each person will have 50 million, which is more than enough to spend.

The employee's eyes grew even more greedy. "If I kill you all, then you're all mine!"

A strong greed gleamed in their eyes.

Just as they were fantasizing about how to proceed...

stab-

A loud screech of brakes echoed outside the container.

A Porsche 356A suddenly appeared in front of them.
