[Conan] I just want to be a magician quietly

The two of them were very happy.

Ryoko put on the dress he had prepared in advance and passed the time flipping through the gossip tabloids in his hand.

There was still some time before the Suzuki family's special car came to pick him up.

The news about Daitengu was indeed very popular in the days without Kaito Kid, and the number of tourists in Shanni Temple saw an epic growth.

Ryoko also earned a lot of emotional points because of this.

However, the public's views on this matter were quite consistent.

The murder was true, but the monster killing was definitely fake. It must be a means for the tabloids to attract attention, or there happened to be a crew shooting nearby.

The gossip tabloids reported these, just looking at the pictures for fun, who can really believe what they said above?

No way, no way, no one really takes the gossip tabloid reports as the golden rule.

This is the world of science that believes in science.

Sally Beth

Xiaolan and the people around her opened the exquisite velvet box in their hands and exclaimed at the unique black pearl brooch inside.

This is exactly the same as the dark star she saw in the exhibition hall more than ten days ago.

There are at least more than 500 guests present, and each of them has such a brooch that is so real that it can be mistaken for a fake. Conan can't help but be impressed by Suzuki Tomoko's generous style.

Money really can do whatever you want.

This is the counterattack of Suzuki Tomoko, the wife of the head of the Suzuki family, against Kaito Kid.

The voyage of Sally Beth from Yokohama to Tokyo will only last three hours, and Kaito Kid must find the only authentic one among more than 500 dark stars within three hours.

"Dad, which one do you think is true?"

Mouri Kogoro frowned at the brooch in his hand, but he couldn't figure it out for a long time.

Conan pulled the corner of Wakaki Ryo's clothes and asked in a low voice: "Wakaki brother, do you have any clues?"

Wakaki Ryo squatted down, and did not answer Conan's question immediately, but asked a question that was not related to the current situation.

"Do you know the difference between Hercule Poirot and Sherlock Holmes?"

"Huh?"

"Compared to going to the scene to search for various clues in person, Poirot prefers to take the route of psychological analysis. So now that there are no more clues, it is better to try to analyze Mrs. Suzuki's psychology.

First of all, the body of the dark star is black pearl, and the main component of pearl is calcium carbonate, which is very easy to be eroded, especially when it touches the grease of fingers, it will cause the surface of the pearl to acidify and completely lose its luster."

Conan, who was awakened, reacted immediately and continued the second half of the sentence.

"That's right. Not every one of the more than 500 guests present is aware of the taboos of pearl preservation, and they are very likely to touch the pearls directly."

Before he finished speaking, Conan saw Maori Kogoro carelessly holding a pearl brooch and pinning it to his lapel, and the corners of his mouth twitched.

"And if it is some careless guests, it is also possible that the pearls will be lost or worn. So Mrs. Suzuki is unlikely to take such a risk and hand over their heirloom to a stranger."

In other words, the real dark star is most likely the one on Mrs. Suzuki.

After Conan figured out this link, he looked at Wakaki Ryo with a sense of recognition.

Sure enough, Brother Wakaki is much more reliable than the uncle.

Wakaki Ryo: "So have you noticed that your Xiaolan is missing?"

Conan:? !

Wasn't she still here five minutes ago?

"Um, where is Sister Xiaolan?"

Conan pulled the hem of Sonoko's skirt with a baby voice.

"Ah, Xiaolan just went to the bathroom, but it's true that she hasn't come back yet. Did she get lost somewhere? Hey, Xiaolan is a person with poor directions. I'll go find her."

"I'm a person with poor directions and it really troubles everyone!"

"Mouri Ran" stood behind Sonoko and complained expressionlessly.

Of course, the real Xiaolan might be sleeping soundly in a lifeboat now. The one who appeared in front of everyone was the cross-dressing boss Kuroba Kaito.

------------------------------------

Under the black pearl smoke bomb of Kaito Kid, the order of the venue was unexpectedly chaotic. Most of the guests screamed and ran away. Kid, who was pretending to be Xiaolan, also successfully stole the real dark star from Suzuki Tomoko in the chaos.

Wakagi Ryo

Also, under the cover of the chaotic crowd, he disappeared from Conan's sight.

As for our famous detective, now he only has Kidd, whose identity has been exposed, in his eyes, of course he will not pay attention to this little detail.

"Sister Xiaolan, I already know who Kidd is."

Conan brought Kidd disguised as Mao Lilan to a machine room at the bottom of the cabin. The light here is dim, and few people come here usually. It can be said to be a perfect place to kill people... ahem, reveal the identity.

"If the thief is a skilled and creative artist who steals treasures, then the detective is a critic who only follows the thief and nitpicks? Humph."

Conan kicked the football that came out of nowhere, and the reflection on the lens made it unclear. The specific expression, but the villain's aura was instantly full.

"He disguised himself secretly while Xiaolan was out, created chaos by exploding the fake black pearl, and then approached Mrs. Suzuki in the chaos and stole the black pearl she was wearing. He was quite good at it. Based on this, I admit your part about the artist."

Kid said in Xiaolan's voice with a fake smile: "Conan suspects that I am Kaito Kid. In this case, let's call the police to come and find out."

Kaito Kid used the skill "Old Tricks".

Edogawa Conan was immune to this effect and used the skill "See Through."

Conan saw at a glance that Kid was going to escape by disguise as he did on the rooftop that day, so he kicked the football and accurately blew up the landline phone embedded in the wall.

Kuroba Kaito: !!!

What kind of killer football is this!

"Is it still the same trick? Calling people over and taking advantage of the chaos to escape, this doesn't fit your artist's rhetoric at all. I tried my best for the 1V1 duel tonight. After all, I need to let you know that real artists usually become famous after death!"

Wakagi Ryo, who was hiding in the dark, held his forehead helplessly. You are relying on the fact that there is no one around now and you don't act at all, right, Conan?

What the hell is a trick of self-destruction every day?

With this look, everyone knows that you can't be an ordinary elementary school student, right?

Also, did you really not hear that the thief pretending to be Xiaolan on the opposite side has the same voice as your big account?

Kid showed a helpless expression, wrapped the dark star with a handkerchief, and threw it back to Conan.

"Oh, I suddenly remembered that I borrowed clothes from that girl and left her alone in the lifeboat. I wonder if she will catch a cold."

Kuroba Kaito said green tea-filled words in his own voice, and pulled out a corner of pink underwear from the dress.

Conan: !!!

The next second, Kidd smirked and used a flash bomb to successfully affect Conan's sight, and disappeared on the deck.

When the strong light faded, Conan could only see the red dress scattered on the ground, and a pink panty with residual warmth floated on the dress.

Conan's mind was confused, and he picked up the dress and other accessories and rushed to the deck.

Damn Kaito Kidd, you remember this!

Wait for me, Lan!

Not to mention the little detective running all the way on the deck holding the fiery red dress, on the dark sea, Wakaki Ryo, who switched to a professor vest, carried Kidd who had attempted to jump into the sea, floating in the shadow of the edge of the hull.

"Good night, Kaito, do you think this scene is a little familiar?"

Kuroba Kaito: ...

"Your curse has come true."
