That Thursday morning, as I Edogawa Conan, was watching the local news, the segment came up about the hotel murder.
"The student suspect remains at large..."
I still didn't believe that it was a straight forward case. How does a student come across a neurotoxin and what motivated him.
"In other news, the mass jailbreak has police and JSDF stumped as to the location of almost two hundred recent inmates."
This was a another problem. How could that many prisoners be missing. The Narabhima followers had effectively out maneuvered the JSDF.
Chapter 10b.
I, Wright Yasogami, was furious at my inability to cope with the situation. Almost a fourth of the inmates had escaped on my watch.
"Falcon, contact HQ to gather up the usual crew."
"Yes sir."
We had to make a decisive action to quell the city's unrest.
...
I, Lelouche Lamparought believe I had enough manpower now to stand up against part of my father's conglomerate, mainly that of my elder step-sister Cornelia Debriten. I had the second objective to get information out of her regarding the truth behind mother's death.
I had gathered, with the help of Micheal, the inmates from the prison break. To him now, "I expect you have doubts as to whether I can control all these people."
"I'm not one to make any baseless assumptions."
"Then watch."
I went to the foreground and used my emperor's eye, "I order you to follow my commands until the downfall of Charles Debritten."
"Yes! We understand," came the unanimous reply from the crowd.
Micheal looked skeptical and wide-eyed.
"I believe you must have guessed at it, seeing how you seem to be keen in observing others. I, more or less, hypnotized them using a technique I learned from a sorceress or rather it was given to me. No need to over analyze it past that. And, you're not getting any further clues as how I did it. Take it at face value or leave it aside for some further contemplation."
"I don't take things at face value lightly."
"Keep it that way, you'll survive longer."
...
"Seeing that the recapture of the criminals is not under our sections priorities, I want to push a further investigation into the Narabhima supporters." I, Light Yagami, dictated my intention.
Buzz!
"Yes, Falcon."
"We have an Akamatsu sighting."
"Send us the location."
