Conan: Science Cartoonist Kudo Yuji

"This...she..." Suzuya struggled for a long time, but still whispered: "Identity information is easy, only past experience..."

There is a tacit understanding among the consortia that the other party's people cannot be easily checked. Moreover, considering Miyano Shiho's current situation, there will definitely be a response from the organization.

"It's a consortium..." Suzuki Jirokichi noticed Suzuya nodded and then shook his head: "That's it, then just check the identity and forget about the rest."

"it is good."

"That's right." Suzuki Jirokichi turned around and found Kudo Yuji standing in front of a counter stupidly: "Get ready, you want to open a security company at home."

"Is it from the consortium, or..."

"Of course it's from a consortium. Please communicate with the chairman in advance."

After three steps and two steps, Suzuki Jirokichi rushed to Kudo Yuji's side and rubbed his hands excitedly: "Son, which one do you want?"

"Old man, I haven't picked anything yet, and your son is calling me."

Yuji grinned awkwardly, unable to smile: "What does your daughter look like? I have no idea."

"Oh yes, look, I forgot about it. You can't remember it for the moment."

Suzuki Jirokichi pulled out a necklace from his neck and opened a silver pendant hanging on the necklace, revealing two photos inside.

"The one on the left is Yuko's mother. Let me tell you, she used to be very beautiful."

"Beautiful, yes, but I can't appreciate the blond hair, blue eyes, and mixed race."

Before he finished speaking, Yuji turned back to Miyano Shiho and smiled: "You are different."

Pretending not to hear the last sentence, Consultant Suzuki sighed when he saw that Yuji also agreed: "It's a pity that I was young at the time and didn't notice that she looked at my junior sister wrongly."

"Can orientation be hereditary?" Yuji squinted and compared the photos of mother and daughter: "But you can't even tell the orientation. How young do you have to be?"

"I found that when you were six years old, although you were polite, your words were thorny."

Suzuki Jirokichi patted his chest: "It hurts my heart."

"It was ten years later that my edges were smoothed by life."

Rolling his eyes, Yu Er pointed his head with an arrogant expression: "I look down on him."

"Did you know that you are now a world-famous cartoonist with a lot of money in your hands?"

Taking the comic book thrown by Suzuki Jirokichi, Yuji flipped through it and said meaningfully: "As expected of me."

[How come he looks so much like the first time he met me? 】

Suzuki Jirokichi remembered the conversation he had with him on the plane, and the boy's fearful expression when he heard that he had thoroughly investigated Mouri Kogoro, and he suddenly realized.

[Oh, it turns out this kid took me for a fool again. 】

"Then Yuko..."

"Eh?!" He raised his palms to express his rejection. The young man looked proud and said, "I don't want to eat soft food."

"Forget it, tell me, what do you like?"

"No need, I never ask for things from others." Yuji crossed his chest and said, "I'm just curious about these things from you."

"You can't understand it from the introduction alone." Suzuki Jirokichi touched his eyebrows with his index finger and introduced the collection to Yuji one by one.

"This first item is a red gemstone I bought from an old gentleman when I was traveling in Japan on a budget when I was young." Jiroyoshi Suzuki looked reminiscing, as if he remembered the past when he traveled all over Japan in one package.

"That night, I was making a bonfire alone by Longsen Lake and eating the freshly caught fish. Not long after, a little man smoking came up to me and sat down next to me, and told me a story."

Suzuki Jirokichi opened the first display cabinet and held the red stone sandwiched between the iron tools in his hand: "A romantic and imaginative story, and he also made a fake stone for it."

"In other words, this one..." Miyano Shiho glanced at the sign in front of the counter and translated into Japanese: "The Super Star is actually not a gem."

"But that story turned it into a bright gem. It was also because of it that I knew what I could do for the Suzuki Foundation and myself, even though it had nothing to do with it."

Seeing that the old man was about to say something with increased interest, Yuji hurriedly stopped him: "No, please put the stone back."

He probably guessed what the story was about.

"This second green gem was bought in Smallville, Kansas when I was traveling with Yuko's mother. I was forty-seven years old that year, and it was the time when I made up my mind to have a family."

In other words, the so-called treasures here are just items bought by the old man in front of him at a moment of great significance in his life.

Walking slowly along the display cabinet, there are orange gem pacifiers, jade balls with animal sculptures embedded inside, strange fruits in the shape of unknown stones, and treasures that resemble sacred crystals, etc.

Yuji listened to him talk about one thing after another, and finally stopped in front of a cabinet covered with black cloth.

"This is the gem from last night. It was originally to commemorate... commemorate the important events in my daughter's life." Suzuki Jirokichi held his bald head in frustration: "It was a miscalculation."

"Gem..."

He casually opened the black cloth on it, and looked at the contents inside with wide eyes. He also glanced at the name Pandora on the label. His expression was rich, and he seemed to have a lot to say.

"Did you see it? There is an irregular stone vaguely visible inside the blue cube. The people who salvaged it called it Pandora. This name is very worthy of it."

"Old man, don't you think this thing is man-made?" With his hands spread out, Yuji was about to open the counter when he was caught by Suzuki Jirokichi.

"This thing is not simple. The first time I got it, I accidentally opened the protective box outside. As a result, all the buildings in the entire block lost power."

Suzuki Jiroyoshi looked at the blue cube with vigilance: "And the researchers from the Suzuki Consortium said that this thing is sending a special signal to the outside world. It cannot be read at all after being cracked. It is not any language on earth."

(Hiroki: Because it was just randomly made up from the beginning.)

"If I'm not mistaken, this thing is part of a meteorite."

Consultant Suzuki adjusted his clothes: "Of course, it doesn't matter if you guess wrong. It's the bait used to catch Kidd anyway. I don't believe it. I can't win even once."

"Then have you applied for official intervention?"

There should be some involvement from the police, otherwise how could we possibly have the manpower?

"To tell you the truth, I have invited the most famous FBI agent in the United States to come here."

At that time, as long as he rents all the shops on site and sells some snacks, drinks and other miscellaneous things, the 400 million can be recovered immediately. This is what he has done before.

And this is Las Vegas, one of the largest gambling cities in the United States.

He can also open a bet, just like the World Cup, with different odds based on the position, time, and method of Kidd's theft. As long as he puts in a few more bets, he won't have to worry about no one playing.

"Money is really meaningless."

Instructing his servants to take the newlyweds to the guest room to rest, Suzuki Jirokichi passed all his ideas to the consortium's staff manager and waited patiently for the application to be sent to him for signature.

"Then let me take the remaining time to see what the relationship between this girl who looks so similar to Sonoko is and our Suzuki Consortium."

[Could it be that Shirou made a mistake? 】(End of this chapter)
