Chapter 274: Go offline as soon as Kidd appears?
They returned to the banquet hall at midnight. Not long after, Conan and Ling Cheng ran back and told them that Kidd had disguised himself as Sonoko's father and the police had begun investigating.
However, Ran Mouri, who went out to look for them, had not returned yet. Kogoro Mouri complained that she might have been captured by Phantom Thief No. 1412.
Midnight: Hahaha, you must have peeked, and it turns out that Kaito Kidd covered his mouth.
"He is not number 1412."
Maori Kogoro turned around and saw Officer Nakamori suddenly appear.
"His name is Kaito Kidd. Please don't make the mistake again."
Officer Nakamori lowered his body and approached Kogoro Mouri. Under the oppressive feeling, Kogoro Mouri was startled and then responded.
Kogoro Mouri leaned close to Suzuki Sonoko's mother, Tomoko Suzuki, and asked her about her identity, only then he learned the identity of Officer Nakamori.
Midnight: Why hasn’t that kid come back yet? Where did he hide Xiaolan for so long?
Kogoro Mouri tried to get Suzuki Tomoko to tell him who the real pearl was, but Suzuki Tomoko had no intention of telling him. Instead, she gave Kogoro Mouri a riddle-like hint.
After eavesdropping, Conan thought hard, who would be the most suitable woman?
Two more people gathered around, one was from the Hatamoto family last time, and the other was someone that Mori and the others had met at the previous banquet.
Because he didn't know them and had no interest in listening to what they said, Ling Cheng next to him thought that only the mother and daughter came to the Suzuki family at this banquet, and such an important thing could only be in the hands of one of them.
He was not the only one who had this idea. Reitoki's eyes had inadvertently fallen on the pearl on Suzuki Tomoko's chest.
Zero Hour: How could such an important thing be handed over to an outsider? In my opinion, it must be from one of our own people, maybe even her own body.
Maori Kogoro started to move around impatiently, probably wanting to go out and look for Maori Ran. Sonoko thought about it and said with a smile:
"I think she must have gotten lost somewhere. She's such a sucker for directions."
"Who are you calling a direction idiot?"
Mao Lilan suddenly appeared, and Sonoko turned around and said:
"Xiaolan, so you are here."
Before they could continue chatting, the police finally came out and announced that Kaito Kidd had already boarded the ship, and suggested using it as a secret signal.
Zero Hour: No, you're just signaling now. Do you police have to be one step slower than Kaito Kidd? This guy has already sneaked in!
Ling Shi looked at Kaito Kidd in front of him, appearing calm on the surface, but just laughing awkwardly in his heart.
Mao Lilan directly pulled Sonoko to exchange secret signals, while Conan and Ling Cheng took a look and thought about it and gave up. It seemed unnecessary for the two kids.
Ling Shi looked at Keigo Atobe and said that it was not necessary and was too childish. If it had been so long since President Suzuki's speech, Kaito Kid might have sneaked in long ago. What was the point?
System: In some ways, he is telling the truth.
Zero Hour: Yes.
Suddenly the lights in the hall went out, and the whispers of the crowd were heard around, followed by loud laughter.
A corner was illuminated by two beams of light, and several pigeons flew out. The person standing on them was dressed as Kaito Kidd. The Kaito Kidd above said:
"It's useless even if you use a secret code, because the Dark Star has already been obtained by me."
There was another commotion, but Atobe had a disdainful expression. Look at what he said. It seems that the security of the Suzuki family is not very good, but he actually got it.
Suzuki Tomoko was distressed at this time. She reached into her bag, took out a pistol, and fired several shots at Kaito Kidd. Kaito Kidd was shot dead.
Ling Shi: "...Wow, this is the fun of your consortium?"
Atobe Keigo:……
"It's a pretty good performance. I hope I can really protect the Dark Star from Kaito Kidd."
Zero Time was deliberately making fun of it. After all, if it was Keigo Atobe, it might be even more exaggerated than this, but it was easy for Zero Time to make fun of it.
Conan was originally frightened, but when Kidd fell on the table, Ling Cheng saw several bodyguards in the dark holding tablecloths to catch him.
He also realized that this was a play, a performance by Suzuki Tomoko to provoke Kaito Kid. Ling Cheng woke Conan up and told him about it, and Conan's expression became speechless.
Sure enough, just when Officer Nakamori turned around and asked Suzuki Tomoko stumblingly, Suzuki Tomoko slowly told him that the man was not dead at all.
"Kaito Kidd" who was lying on the table also sat up from the table and walked over following Suzuki Tomoko's introduction.
"This is Mr. Sanada Ichizo, the talented magician I hired especially for this side show."
"Ladies and gentlemen, please give him a round of applause to thank him for performing the final act for the legendary Kaito Kidd."
Lingshi applauded along and glanced at the real Kaito Kid. Although the guy's expression was normal, one could see that he was full of malice towards Sanada Kazuzo.
Zero Hour: "Looks like someone doesn't like this show."
Atobe Keigo continued:
"Kaitou Kidd?"
Lingshi smiled but said nothing. Anyway, he could feel the dissatisfaction from Kidd, and he would probably take a small revenge on him later.
As for Tomoko Suzuki, successfully stealing the pearl was the best slap in her face. Oh, she is really a thief with a strong sense of revenge.
The onlookers said:
"I see. Kaito Kid is a master of magic himself. He plays the role well."
Kazuzo Sanada: "Yes, both he and I are artists of deception."
These words suddenly touched Conan, reminding him of what Kaito Kid had said to him before.
"I'm a complete magician, and I definitely won't lose to a thief like him."
Kaito Kid: Haha, sorry, this is a side job, my main job is a student.
"Dear guests, please come to the side of the stage and enjoy the magic show I will bring to you."
Conan was thinking, and Kid just glanced at him, and Conan immediately noticed it. Kid had to look away and leave with the crowd.
Zero Hour: Kidd's human flesh detector appears.
System: Zundu fakedu.
Ling Cheng noticed Conan was acting strangely and went to ask him, but Conan could only say:
"It's Kaito Kidd. He's already sneaked in. Damn it! If only I knew who that person is referring to."
Ling Cheng: "It should be with someone from the Suzuki family. How could such a thing be given to anyone else?"
Before they could discuss further, the crowd was thrown into chaos by the sudden appearance of a notice from Kaito Kidd that was supposed to be at Sanada Kazuzo's magic show.
It appeared on the poker card drawn by Ran Mouri, causing the crowd to make noise again. Everyone was still wondering how Kaito Kid did it.
Zero Hour: Is it because I’ve read the script that I’ve lost the fun of participating?
System: You are the one who takes advantage of others and acts ungratefully.
