The Phantom Thief of Heart! But Conan

Looking at the boy standing in front of her, Pu Siqinglan's face flashed with a hint of astonishment.

The people she could meet in President Suzuki's room were all people who were somewhat related to the Suzuki Foundation. Of course, she would not take it lightly. She naturally took note of everyone's appearance, so when she heard him greetings like this, it didn't mean much. Surprised.

What really surprised her was meeting the man himself.

Out of caution, she almost never chooses the type of sniper. In order to prevent people from easily stealing the weapon, she even consciously changes the type she uses regularly. As long as she can get close to the prey, she will definitely find ways to do so. Shoot at close range to avoid missing.

Anyway, as Scobin, the Romanov dynasty and the damage to the right eye are already a distinctive enough symbol that no additional work is needed to indicate the identity, and she has never had any relationship with these keywords. The connection felt elated.

Therefore, before preparing to snipe a new target, she would always get materials nearby, do some simple gun modifications or even assemble them from scratch. When she came to a city, the first thing she went to look for was a gun or model shop.

These are places where teenage boys and girls should not like to come.

Muttering in her heart, the expression on her face quickly adjusted to one of surprise and then a smile: "Hello, it is indeed a coincidence. Are you visiting Osaka Castle?"

"Well, Sonoko and the others went to the shrine. I'm not very interested in this kind of place, so I went out and walked around by myself. Although it's hard to tell, I'm half a military fan." Karasawa nodded, naturally Mentioning Sonoko Suzuki, he once again emphasized that he belonged to the category of people related to the Suzuki Group, and then changed his tone, "You are Chinese, right? This is the first time I have met a Chinese like you."

Pu Siqinglan's hand holding the fisherman's bag tightened slightly.

She knows that she is actually far from the image of a real Chinese. Certain nondescript elements in her body, such as the almost exaggerated Chinese style dress, are all for the purpose of being eye-catching in clothing and leaving people with a "Chinese girl" impression, thus making people ignore her personal physical characteristics.

In addition, although her eye color and hair color are not particularly common, her overall outline is much flatter than that of ordinary Slavs due to the intermarriage of her ancestors. It can barely be explained by mixed race or ethnic minorities, which allows her to maintain such a design. Sure, but as long as you know a little about the real Han people, it will be difficult to be easily fooled by her.

However, she was already prepared for this, so she just smoothed her hair on her temples and replied in a gentle tone: "Ah, maybe it doesn't look like it. How should I put it, China is a complicated country. , and there are many ethnic groups living there. I am not Han Chinese, so it looks a little different.”

Although the number is not very large, there are indeed Slavs, that is, Russians, in China.

This is the reason why she knows that she is not actually that "Chinese" and dares to call herself so boldly.

If someone is suspicious, she can throw out this trivial argument. If she still can't win people's trust... Anyway, she thinks she is good at learning Chinese. If she doesn't get bumped into by a real Chinese, there won't be any problems.

"Oh, I've heard about it!" Tang Ze showed a stunned expression, "That's true. After all, 'the land is vast and the resources are abundant', right?"

The four words "Tangze" were spoken in the most standard Mandarin, and of course Pu Siqinglan understood it.

Precisely because she understood, her eyebrows couldn't help but jump.

She had almost never heard Japanese people use similar adjectives to praise China.

The vast majority of Japanese people she came into contact with, especially young men, were full of the common shortcomings of island nation citizens, that is, insularity, arrogance and xenophobia. This is a commonality after geopolitical research, and it is also consistent with the differences between continental and maritime civilizations. The difference is related. In short, even if they do not show hostility, compared to being friendly and peaceful, these people also show a state of lack of passion and are too lazy to give feedback...

However, even if she was a little bit surprised, she was a well-informed international thief after all. She immediately calibrated Tangze's personality in her heart and pushed him in the direction of "a niche non-mainstream cup-wearing brother" and a "rare left-wing person" He pushed, then nodded with a smile: "Yes, there are dozens of different races there, and there are many exceptions due to geographical reasons and mixed living... Your pronunciation just now was very standard. Have you learned Chinese?"

No wonder he suddenly blocked himself here. Maybe it wasn't because of admiration, so when he met a rare Chinese, he immediately wanted to get close to him.

Have I ever learned Chinese? That’s too learned.

The smile on Karasawa's face became more sincere: "Well, I have a little talent in language learning, so when I heard President Suzuki's introduction today, I couldn't help but be a little curious about you... I'm sorry, it's rare to meet you like this The foreigner is a little excited, does it not cause you any trouble? "

Saying this, Tang Ze's actual actions did not mean to apologize at all and retreat to a suitable social distance. Instead, he went a step further and directly lifted the heavy fisherman's bag for her.

Pu Siqinglan is said to be a notorious thief, and he is not ignorant of physical skills, but after all, he mainly relies on firearms to commit crimes. Apart from firearms skills, he has no advantages in pure fighting. He almost has no time to refuse. The bag has been forcefully pulled over by the other party.

As the long package swayed, there was the sound of some metal parts colliding, causing her forehead to sweat immediately.

How to put it, she certainly didn't think that a teenager could judge the contents of the bag just by relying on this little movement, but her most important tool was suddenly caught in the hands of a stranger, should she panic or panic? .

Tang Ze weighed the bag in his hand, raised his eyebrows and looked at her, but he didn't make any extra moves. He used more honorifics on his lips: "It's quite heavy. You can carry it by yourself." It's not easy. Is it hard? Let me help you for a while. I also want to know more about life there. "

As he spoke, he changed his hands and moved the heavy bag filled with metal parts for guns to the side away from Pu Si Qinglan.

Pu Si Qinglan's eyebrows jumped again.

Her car was parked at a corner of a street away. It was a very low-key black car that was also in line with her habits when hunting targets.

If you don't come and get in the way, I'll put it in the car in two minutes, so there's no need to worry.

She didn't know whether this person did it intentionally or unintentionally, but with such a fatal thing in someone's hand, even if she originally wanted to politely respond to him, she didn't have the attitude to speak now.

We have to get the things back properly without arousing his suspicion...

"Okay, do you want to find a place to sit?" Pu Si Qinglan caught a glimpse of Tang Ze's handsome young face with a smile on his face. His heart moved and he quickly changed his strategy and pointed to the other side of the street. On one side, "There is a cafe over there, and it happens to be tea time..."

"Oh, do you like afternoon tea? Are you from Shanghai or Chengdu?" Tang Ze said coldly at first, but before Pu Si Qinglan could react, he changed the topic and said, "I'll treat you. Since you're wearing a cheongsam, well, Just pretend you’re from Shanghai, right?”

The setting was not written in such detail at all. I just wanted to use some stereotypes or common images to fool Pu Siqinglan: "..."

What the hell is going on with this kid...

————

"Where's Daji? He's a good signer. He deserves to be Xiaolan..."

"It seems that you and Kudo are making good progress, right?"

"You two..." Zhang Zhang read the lottery carefully. Mao Lilan quickly rolled up the things and coughed covertly, "I wasn't thinking about him when I drew the lottery."

After all, the guy himself was completely distracted by Kaitou Kid's puzzle, and he ran away with Hattori Heiji...

"Really?" Suzuki Sonoko tilted her head and glanced at her love-minded bestie with disbelief, "Then what were you thinking about just now?"

"I'm thinking about other things..." Knowing that Yuanzi was misunderstanding something, she didn't explain it and just smiled, "As long as it goes smoothly."

This is the career lottery she drew for Yuanzi.

Kaitou Kid's warning letter and the appearance of Goro Akechi have indeed attracted a large number of people's attention to the newly completed art museum, but this also means more surprises and uncertainties.

If possible, she sincerely hopes that her best friend's appearance can be completed successfully.

"Let's not talk about this." After carefully putting the signature into his wallet, Mao Lilan turned to ask, "Have you invited Kitagawa-kun? You can successfully complete the work this time, thanks to him. The opening ceremony should indeed be called He came to take a look."

In addition to the factors of exhibition design, Suzuki Sonoko's main reputation in the art world is related to Kitagawa Yusuke. In the eyes of most people, their personal connections are bound to each other, which also gave Suzuki Sonoko the opportunity to borrow Kisaragimine. Water east wind opportunity.

The Museum of Modern Art, in addition to the abundant collections from the Suzuki family treasure house, still needs many modern and contemporary works of art to fill the collection inventory.

In the entire construction process of the exhibition hall, it seems that he has nothing to do with Kitagawa Yusuke, but his actual contribution is quite significant.

"Of course I'm invited! Thanks to him, I also borrowed an autumn view of Fuji from Mr. Kisaragi's inventory." Suzuki Sonoko put her hands on her hips, a little proudly, "He said that he has been busy with new works recently. , I don’t have much time, but I will make time to show up.”

"That's great..." Mao Lilan sighed.

This is what it means to accept her love, even if you are busy, you still have to take time to stand up for her and express your attitude.

Suzuki Sonoko's funding is indeed a step up for him, but in fact everyone - including Kitagawa Yusuke himself - should know that Sonoko doesn't really fancy his ability, but just casually because of his eyesight. Throwing away some resources that were nothing to her.

Kitagawa Yusuke, who was well aware of this, never felt offended because of this reason. Instead, he sincerely thanked Suzuki Sonoko in various public occasions, saying that without her recommendation, he might not be able to participate in the Grand Prize. Therefore, I lost an important opportunity, so I am very grateful to her for taking a fancy to Yunyun.

Kitagawa Yusuke seems to be a weirdo who is ignorant and sophisticated to a certain extent, but he never disappoints people on such important matters.

"Hehe, I'm just lucky and met a good guy." Suzuki Sonoko raised her head, "I do meet kind-hearted handsome guys, right?"

Toyama and Ye touched their chins: "You are talking as if Tang Ze is not a handsome guy..."

"That's different..." Suzuki Sonoko waved her hand, "He is a classmate and a very good friend. Well, I always look at my friends very well."

"Then the way you look at the handsome guy can't do it?"

"What are you talking about? Ah Zhen is still very good..."

Ran Mao Li was about to make some jokes when she suddenly noticed a familiar shadow from the corner of her eyes and turned her head to look.

She saw Tang Ze, whom they had just mentioned, sitting with a woman under the parasol across the street, with a usual smile on his face, drinking tea and chatting about something.

When she turned her head, Suzuki Sonoko and Toyama Kazuha, who were traveling with her, also turned their heads to observe, and then frowned.

"This is the woman I met this morning. Oh, she said she was a researcher from China..." Toyama Kazuha pinched her chin, with a strange expression, "Why would a Chinese study the Romanov dynasty?"

She wanted to ask this question when she heard the name of Pu Siqinglan in the morning, but she was embarrassed to ask because of the atmosphere.

Tsarist Russia, how should I put it, anyone who knows a little about world history should know a little bit.

Those with high EQ say that it is very romantic and has a unique historical flavor, while those with low EQ would say...

In short, it is hard to imagine who would be interested in studying this kind of thing all day long, except for the descendants themselves.

"Well, I can't say, maybe because of interest..." Mao Lilan smiled awkwardly, not wanting to answer.

Suzuki Sonoko narrowed her eyes vigilantly and rolled up her sleeves: "She can't be, unable to buy the egg of memory from my father, now she is thinking about others and plans to try a different route?"

"Change route? Try from Tang Ze, then isn't this route a bit too tortuous?" Yuanshan Heye frowned strangely.

"Of course, Tang Ze can't intercede for her. But if she can get some information from Tang Ze, such as information related to Mingzhi's work or cooperation with the police, then she may find some breakthroughs. My father actually doesn't plan to sell it. After all, this thing has good historical value, and it's good to put it in the exhibition hall here. I heard him say that among these people, the one who is most obsessed with it is this woman with a weird name..." Suzuki Sonoko said, and she couldn't stand it anymore, "No, we can't let her cause trouble for Tang Ze."

If it were someone else, such as Maori Kogoro, Suzuki Sonoko probably wouldn't care.

Even if Pu Siqinglan used the beauty trap to get some important information from Maori Kogoro, as long as it didn't interfere with the police's arrangement, with Maori Kogoro's reputation and relationship with the police, no one would care about him.

But Tang Ze is different. Tang Ze's identity is the most sensitive among their group, and it is the one that cannot be left in doubt.

Tang Ze is indeed still a minor, so he still has the opportunity to be protected and observed when facing criminal punishment, but he is 18 years old, not 13 years old, and this probation period is not so light. Once he gets into trouble, the case may really turn into a real sentence...

"Let's go and take a look."

Pu Siqinglan, who was sitting opposite Tang Ze with a smile, did not notice that a few girls had changed direction and approached stealthily.

She now focused all her attention on the bag under their feet.

In addition to firearms, it also contained things that were very important for this operation, such as the map she had marked and the prepared retreat route, etc.

There were still two or three days before the opening day, and it was also the day when Kaito Kid announced that he would steal the egg of memories. She must take advantage of this opportunity to make full preparations.

Osaka is not a city she is familiar with. Even though she has come to Japan for several operations, most of the time she only moved around Tokyo, so these preparations are necessary.

Although she is not a completely single-handed thief, in general, she is still a lone ranger, and no one will do this kind of work for her.

And this guy who inexplicably stopped her and kept talking would waste an extra afternoon...

Thinking of this, she became more and more anxious.

Her expression was not obvious, but that kind of subtle body language naturally could not fool professionals like Tang Ze.

He glanced at the other person's index finger that was unconsciously tapping the edge of the cup repeatedly, but the speed of his mouth became slower: "...Speaking of which, you just said that you were born in southern China, so you like cheongsams and have been wearing them when you are abroad, because you want people to contact you to be aware of your nationality at the first time, and there will be no impolite misunderstandings. Then your accent is quite rare. Didn't you speak Mandarin enough before?"

This sentence is somewhat sarcastic, and it is a bit of a sarcasm.

You speak Chinese so that Chinese people don't think you are Chinese. You said that you dress like this because you hope that foreigners will find you Chinese at the first time... It's a bit funny, sister.

Why do I feel that this sentence is vague and strange.

Pu Siqinglan frowned, looked at Tang Ze uncertainly, and didn't see any other meaning from his smiling face, so she looked away suspiciously.

She didn't realize that she was attacked by the double buff of Kyoto and China. She quickly adjusted her expression and lowered her head with a smile: "I didn't expect that you are quite knowledgeable about these. You are right, I speak more dialect. Because of the living environment when I was a child, I learned Mandarin later. What's wrong, does it sound bad?"

"Dialect..." Tang Ze nodded slowly, "Then I can understand. The teacher I learned Chinese from is from Sichuan and Chongqing, so I do know a little dialect. However, if you are Russian, you should speak more Russian, right?"

Pu Siqinglan's eyebrows jumped again.

In order not to arouse suspicion, she would fabricate such an identity of an expert scholar, just to avoid contact with Russia as much as possible, so as to alert people in advance.

Now mentioning the Russian language...

"Oh, they can speak a little, I don't speak much." Pu Siqinglan's smile was really a little stiff this time, "The accent may be affected by something."

"No wonder you sound a little like rolling your tongue." Tang Ze's face was full of satisfaction after his curiosity was satisfied, "If I didn't know, I would really think you were Russian."

Pu Siqinglan spent some effort to stop her eyelids from jumping.

You are the only one who knows Chinese, you are the only one who understands China, right? What are you showing off here, this kid...

It's really unpleasant to talk so much.

After thinking about it, she decided to use the ultimate move.

"Your Chinese seems to be pretty good, why don't you say a few words for me? If there's any pronunciation that's wrong, I can help you correct it. It's rare to find a foreigner who knows us as well as you do."

Tang Ze raised an eyebrow: "I'm telling you? Don't make me laugh."

Pu Siqinglan's expression was truly confused.
