Conan: The Magician of the End of the Century

173 Bloodline

Kaito hesitated for a moment, but still spoke out about his grievances with the zoo organization: "My father, the previous generation Kaitou Kidd, was killed by the organization you belonged to eight years ago, so I took over My father's work became the current Kaitou Kid."

"It turned out to be like this, but the organization seems to think that the Kaitou Kidd came out of the mountain again after escaping a catastrophe, and didn't expect someone to inherit this title." Qing Lan suddenly said, "Then you want me to help you?" Are you taking revenge?"

"No, now I know too little information about the organization, and it's not time to take revenge." Kaito shook his head and said, "I want to ask for your help, but if you hear about the organization's actions, just tell me the news." I'll do it."

Hearing the other party's request, Qinglan agreed after thinking for a while, and at the same time put forward her own idea: "If it's just like this, I can help you, but you also know that I am only a member of the peripheral staff in the organization. It’s just a higher-level operator, unless there is a task assigned to me, I will not be informed of other actions.”

"But it's not impossible to change this situation. You just need you to cooperate with my actions and let me earn more credits in the mission. Maybe it can improve my status and importance in the organization, so that I can master more So much information."

Speaking of this, Qinglan's eyes showed a hint of cruelty, staring at Kaidou's eyes and said: "After all, I, like you, have a blood feud with that organization. On this point, our goals should be the same. You Say?"

Sensing the killing intent emanating from the opponent, Kaidou couldn't help shivering, feeling a little awe of the femme fatale sister in front of him, and quickly nodded in response: "Ah, that's right, I'm best at acting. Yes, please let me know if you have any news, the contact information is on the previous card."

After finishing speaking, Kaito quickly got up and left the table, nodded to Qinglan to say goodbye, then turned and left the room, while closing the door behind him, he let out a long sigh.

When he thought that he was the one who offered to ask the other party for help, but was intimidated by the other party's arrogance, Kaidou couldn't help but want to complain about how all his brothers and sisters are monsters. ?
Not to mention my brother-in-law Ishino, not only did I never beat him, but I couldn't even see through the opponent's hole cards; this sister Qinglan easily unlocked the secret code she had carefully designed, and almost let her Received a box of lunch; even Miss Xia Mei, who seemed harmless to humans and animals, seemed to be unable to beat her...

"Is it possible that this ten-year age gap is really an insurmountable gap?" Thinking of this, Kaito felt that he seemed to have grasped the key to the problem, rekindling his fighting spirit, "If I will be better than them ten years later It's still good now, so doesn't that mean I won?!"

Not to mention Kaito who was inspired by his inexplicable competitive spirit, Qinglan in the room also found it funny after seeing Kaito running out of the room as if fleeing, and took out the card that he had put in his pocket before with a smile. After remembering the phone number on the card, he lit it with a match in the room and threw it into the ashtray.

Returning to the coffee table, Qinglan took a look at the handbag Kaito sent, took out a box inside, weighed it in her hands, and then opened the box.

Seeing that the necklace Han Chuanlong used to frame Masato Nishino the day before yesterday was lying in the box like this, Qinglan quickly picked up the ring and checked it under the light. After confirming that it was indeed the ring of Princess Maria, Qinglan understood Ishino's intention.

After putting the ring back into the box and repacking it, Qinglan left the hotel with her suitcase and took a taxi to Ishino's home in Mihua Town.

Half an hour later, Xia Mei who heard the doorbell opened the door, saw Qing Lan standing at the door and said in surprise, "Qing Lan, why are you here?"

"Miss Xia Mei, I'm really sorry for the sudden visit." Qing Lan said with some embarrassment, "I asked President Suzuki about your home address, and I came here specifically to confirm something with you, and I brought you a Gift."

"It's okay, it's okay, it's too late for me to welcome you, come in quickly!" Seeing the heavy suitcase behind the other party, Xia Mei hurriedly invited the other party into the room, "It's just a holiday today, my husband and daughters They're all at home."

Seeing that Xia Mei was about to come over to help her leave, Qing Lan immediately wanted to reach out to stop her, but the next second when she saw that the other party was like carrying a vegetable basket, she picked up the suitcase that she was struggling to carry and went to the house. When he left, he had no choice but to swallow back the words that just came to his lips, and followed behind into the house without saying a word.

At this moment, Shi Ye, who heard the conversation between the two at the door, also brought his daughters to the living room. After greeting Qing Lan, everyone sat down on the sofa and chatted about each other's intentions.

"Miss Xia Mei, I'm here today because I actually want to confirm some questions about the memory egg left by Mr. Xiyi." After taking her seat, Qing Lan sorted out her mood and got straight to the point.

Hearing the egg of memories mentioned by the other party, Xiao Ai and Xiao Saki's faces turned cold, and they looked at Qing Lan with wary eyes, but Xia Mei didn't find anything strange, and said with a smile: "I've already got that egg from President Suzuki." I bought it there, and I am going to send it to the Mihua Art Museum for exhibition, if you want to see it now, I can go and get it for you.”

"Don't be so troublesome." Qing Lan waved her hand with a smile, and then asked seriously, "I want to confirm that Miss Xia Mei's great-grandmother is the third daughter of Emperor Nicholas II, Princess Maria?"

Hearing the other party's direct question, Xiao Ai and Xiao Saki were startled, and Xia Mei was also stunned for a second, looking at the other party's eyes without any malice, she nodded and said: "That's right, it seems that Qinglan you Very keen, did you find out through the photos in those eggs?"

"Yes, not exactly." Qing Lan nodded, then shook her head and said, "Miss Xia Mei, do you remember what we talked about on the boat before? When I saw the photo of Mr. Kiichi and Princess Maria, I finally confirmed that we are indeed sisters who are related by blood."

"In fact, my great-grandfather was the Rasputin who had a close relationship with Emperor Nicholas, and my great-grandmother was Princess Irina, the niece of Emperor Nicholas, and I was among the people who helped Princess Maria escape from Russia. great-grandmother, and followers of great-grandfather Rasputin."
