Keith raised his hand to indicate to the guards that they did not need to salute.
In the face of the captain of the Royal Guards, Qin Zhibo and others were able to bypass the beeping metal detector and enter the auditorium from the side passage.
"this way please……"
After following Qisi for a while, he walked into the auditorium. Along the way, he met either dignitaries in suits or luxuriously dressed celebrities.
In addition to the celebrities outside the auditorium who were getting to know each other and chatting, there were also many people who had taken their seats inside the auditorium where the ceremony was held.
The aisle paved with long black and white stone tiles in the center of the auditorium is the path that the new king needs to walk during the coronation ceremony, and is called the "King's Path" by the outside world.
In the area paved with diamond-shaped stone tiles on both sides of the "King's Road", hundreds of chairs are neatly placed, extending in rows to the front of the coronation chair.
The closer the seat is to the coronation chair, the more valued it is by the king and the king is a guest of the entire country.
"The positions of several of you are in front..."
Qisi led Qin Zhibo and his party straight forward, through the long royal road, until they reached the front row. The nearest chair was only a few steps away from the coronation chair.
Qin Zhibo counted exactly eleven empty chairs.
"Please allocate the specific positions by yourself. I'll go check on Princess Mila's condition first. We'll see you later."
Keith turned and left, leaving everyone confused.
Although these people are all prominent figures in their respective fields, this is the first time they have participated in such a solemn coronation ceremony.
Especially since there were already some guests sitting on the surrounding seats. They were looking at Qin Zhibo and others with confusion and confusion in their eyes.
Who are these people?
In the eyes of outsiders, these people dress casually and have different styles. Some wear yellow windbreakers, jeans, white kimonos, and casual clothes.
There were also children, some wearing masks, and even more frighteningly, some clearly holding a samurai sword in their arms.
Can these strange people sit in the most important position in the coronation ceremony?
In fact, if he didn't have to serve as a guard for the parade later, Qin Zhibo would also like to wear a decent and polite suit to attend such an important occasion.
However, they settled in for what they had come. Qin Zhibo and others ignored the gazes around them and began to assign seats.
"There are 11 seats in total, but only 10 of us came."
Kudo Yusaku discovered this problem and mentioned.
Mao Lilan also looked around and found that "he" was not here.
"Fujiko didn't come..."
Lupine III waved his hands indifferently and said with a smile: "Maybe she just doesn't want to see her 'old customers' in this place..."
"Don't worry about her~"
With that said, Lupine the Third sat on the seat closest to him.
At this time, everyone saw that Lupine III's face had somehow gained two glimpses of a mustache, and a pair of elegant round-framed glasses on the bridge of his nose.
Not to mention, this cross-dressing makes the whole person look less arrogant.
In fact, this disguise is understandable. After all, he is an internationally wanted thief. News media will arrive one after another to take photos. Once Lupine III is photographed at the coronation ceremony, it will definitely arouse a lot of international public opinion.
As Lupine III took his seat, Zenigata Police Department and Jigen Daisuke also immediately took their seats, sitting on his left and right respectively, quite like protecting the law.
But Koichi Zenagata’s main purpose is to keep Lupine the Third from causing trouble.
Ishikawa Goemon sat next to Daisuke Jigen, also among the eleven seats, the farthest away from the coronation chair.
The four seats were divided instantly, and the remaining six people were divided between the mother's family and the husband's family.
When Qin Zhibo and others were about to continue assigning seats, a short-haired girl wearing a white tube top dress suddenly ran over from somewhere else.
"Uncle Maori!"
The two turned around and saw that it was Sonoko Suzuki.
Yuanzi ran over with anxious eyes, "Uncle Maori, where is Xiaolan?"
"Xiaolan? She..."
Mouri Kogoro was confused for a moment, and just as he was about to say, "It's right here," he was grabbed by Kudo Yusaku next to him.
"Xiaolan is feeling a little unwell and is resting in the hotel..." Kudo Yusaku blocked Mouri Kogoro, who was sometimes too simple-minded, and asked: "By the way, Sonoko, why are you here?"
Sonoko turned around and saw Kudo Yusaku. He was stunned for a moment, then suddenly remembered that this was Kudo Shinichi's father whom he hadn't seen for many years, and bowed slightly.
"Hello, Uncle Kudo."
"I heard on the news that Vespaña announced that they had captured a Japanese female spy, and my family said that this female spy looked very similar to Princess Mila..."
"In addition, Xiaolan has not come to school recently, and there is no one in the office. I am worried about Xiaolan's safety, so I specially wanted to come and have a look with the quota of people at home..."
"Xiaolan, is she really okay?"
Looking at Yuanzi's eager eyes, Mao Lilan, who was standing aside, felt a warm current surge in her heart.
Good bestie!
If Conan hadn't pulled her just now, Mao Lilan would have raised her hand to say hello as soon as she saw Yuanzi.
But now that she is using Fujiko Mine's body, if she greets Sonoko, people will definitely be shocked.
Moreover, the reason for body swapping was also a secret, and there was no way to explain it to Sonoko.
"Xiaolan is a very nice person now, right? Conan?"
"Um."
With a look from Kudo Yusaku, Conan handed over the assist with a smile, dispelling Sonoko's concerns.
"Huh..." Yuanzi breathed a sigh of relief, then pinched his waist angrily, and said angrily: "Really, you didn't even call me to say you were safe when everything was fine, which made me worry for several days..."
"I must have just called that detective boy!"
Conan: I'm the detective boy?
Facing Yuanzi's complaints, Mao Lilan was a little helpless. Her brain had experienced many things recently and she had indeed forgotten this matter.
"By the way Sonoko, we have one more seat here, how about you sit with us?"
Facing Kudo Yusaku's invitation, Sonoko glanced at this position, which was much further forward than her own.
Moreover, this coronation ceremony was very important, and the internationally renowned Suzuki Foundation only had one quota to attend the ceremony. The place where she sat was surrounded by strange foreigners, which was very boring.
"Okay! It just so happens that my position is pretty boring, and it's nice to be with Conan and the uncles~"
With the participation of Yuanzi, the seats were quickly assigned.
Kudo Yusaku sat closest to the front of the coronation chair. After all, he is an internationally famous best-selling author, so it is not surprising that he was photographed by the media.
Next is Mouri Kogoro. Moori Kogoro is wearing a suit and his attire is relatively normal.
Next is Sonoko, who is also well-dressed. She is also the second daughter of the Suzuki Foundation, and is rumored to be the future heir to the Suzuki Foundation.
Further outside the garden are Conan, Maori Ran, Qin Zhibo, Conan, Sengata Police Department, Lupine the Third, Daisuke Jigen, and Goemon Ishikawa.
Eleven seats are lined up and all are occupied.
Yuanzi sat on the seat and looked out curiously.
On his right were Uncle Kudo and Uncle Mori, both of whom were relatively familiar; but the group of people on the left were unfamiliar to them.
"Conan..."
Sonoko bent down and asked Conan's ear.
"Do you know the woman sitting next to you?"
Conan glanced to the side, feeling a little helpless. This person was Mao Lilan!
But now Mao Lilan is using the body of Mine Fujiko, how can Sonoko recognize it?
So Conan could only shake his head helplessly, "It's not too familiar..."
This specious answer made Yuanzi confused.
But she stretched her head and looked to the side again, and a father and son wearing golden masks came into view.
Do you still wear a mask in this situation?
Yuanzi was a little confused in her heart, but what made her even more confused was that the child wearing the mask gave her exactly the same feeling as Conan.
Sonoko immediately teased Conan in a half-joking tone.
"Conan, look at the kid sitting over there. Does the tugging look like you?"
Conan grinned helplessly.
I laughed...
Conan, who was separated by two people, also went by the pseudonym "Kebei", driven by curiosity, quietly observed Sonoko's every move to see what was different from the Suzuki Sonoko in his own world.
But after observing for a while, he found that there was no difference.
Still the same old lady...
At this moment, the solemn and soothing music sounded in the auditorium, announcing that the ceremony was about to begin.
Guests from all over the world took their seats one after another. After a while, hundreds of seats were filled, but the original seat in the garden was empty.
When the music gradually stopped, two rows of guards entered from the side of the auditorium, marking a passage leading to the coronation chair through a straight queue.
After the air was silent for a minute, Princess Mila slowly walked out of the dark corridor under the gaze of everyone.
The white and blue dress is decorated with a few gems, the gorgeous princess crown shines under the bright lights, and the beautiful face is a rare appearance in the world.
She is incredibly beautiful today.
"So beautiful~~"
Yuanzi looked at Princess Mira who was slowly walking towards the front desk, her eyes shining brightly.
Although Mao Lilan next to her didn't say anything, her brain was thinking that if she and Xinyi entered the wedding hall one day, she might be as beautiful as this.
Of course, the premise is to change the body back...
Qin Zhibo also looked at Mira, feeling inexplicably emotional in his heart.
Compared to the exchange reception held when Princess Mila visited Japan not long ago, Mila today has a more noble, dignified and majestic temperament.
This kind of temperament cannot be changed in a short period of time through etiquette learning, but must go through some things before it can grow.
She is no longer the willful princess, but the queen who is about to assume the future destiny of a country.
Princess Mila walked to the coronation chair, followed by four guards including Keith.
At this time, Chiss also put on the knight's uniform that matched the ceremony, with a thin sword around his waist and a sky blue cloak behind him.
"Please all stand up!"
There was an empty sound in the auditorium, and hundreds of people stood up at the same time, forming a short but grand "wow".
Everyone stood up, shifted their bodies at a certain angle, and faced Princess Mila on the coronation chair.
Under the gaze of everyone, Keith stood next to Mira and announced loudly.
"I declare that Mira Giulietta Vespaña is crowned Mira Vespaña III, queen of all the people of Vespaña!"
In the solemn and silent atmosphere, Keith turned around, slowly took off the princess crown from Mira's head, and placed it on the tray.
He carefully picked up the Queen's Crown on another tray and gently put it on Mira's head.
At this moment, Mira's title suffix changed from "princess" to "queen".
Suddenly, the audience burst into thunderous applause.
The applause lasted for dozens of seconds before the auditorium gradually returned to calm.
Mira stood up from the coronation chair and solemnly announced.
"I will strive to become a great queen like my mother and do my best for the prosperity of the Kingdom of Vespania."
"But I know very well that individual wisdom and ability are limited, and the fate of a country should not be highly bound to individual wisdom..."
"Therefore, I declare that the Kingdom of Vespania will implement a constitutional monarchy from now on!"
As soon as these words came out, the scene was in an uproar.
The Kingdom of Vespania has historically been a highly centralized monarchy.
Although it appears to be extremely backward in today's world, fortunately, Queen Sakura of the previous generation worked hard to govern, and Vespania still maintains its level of development.
But now that Queen Sakura has passed away, and the newly appointed Mira is a 19-year-old girl, there are inevitable concerns from the outside world.
What does a 19-year-old girl know about governing a country?
However, a constitutional monarchy can transfer the power of the monarch to the National Assembly, and the fate of the country will no longer be highly tied to the personal destiny of the monarch.
From a rational analysis perspective, this is certainly a wise choice.
But no one could have guessed that a newly crowned queen would make such a major decision.
After all, switching from a monarchy to a constitutional monarchy is actually a kind of decentralization.
And almost no one in the world can resist the temptation of power.
When Qin Zhibo heard Mira's announcement just now, his expression under the mask was a little stunned.
Could it be that Mira listened to her previous words and chose to adopt a constitutional monarchy?
Qin Zhibo had a small talk with Mira in Japan for a while. He found that the girl did not have political wisdom, so he suggested that she adopt a parliamentary constitutional monarchy.
In the end, she actually listened to her own advice?
Although I have been very restrained, various things in this world are indeed developing in strange directions...
Just when Qin Zhibo was stunned on the spot, Conan tugged on his left sleeve.
Qin Zhibo suddenly saw that Mira had left and all the guests had sat down.
Next is the parade ceremony after the coronation, the purpose is to announce to all the people who has become their new queen.
At this time, it's time for the Queen's Guards to appear.
Qin Zhibo and others stood up from their seats and quietly left from one side of the auditorium.
Everyone was talking among themselves about what Queen Mira had just announced, and did not notice the departure of this group of people.
Only Yuanzi turned around and looked around, very puzzled as to why there was suddenly no one around.
Of course, not everyone disappears.
Next to her was "Conan" and the unknown sexy big sister.
