They were the last group, and everyone else had already boarded the ship.
After confirming the number of people, Inspector Nakamori immediately took out his walkie-talkie and gave the order to leave the shore to the cab.
It’s not yet half past seven, but in order to prevent Kaito Kidd from sneaking in, the cruise ship needs to be moved a little further out and keep a distance from the port.
Afterwards, there were police officers patrolling the deck. According to his idea, this would eliminate the possibility of the other party sneaking onto the ship.
However, considering that the other party has the ability to disguise himself and change his voice, he may be hiding among the guests. We should not let our guard down even if we are not discovered.
"Uncle Xiachuan, this is..."
Conan and Frank were not familiar with each other, and when they found that Xiachuan had a very distinctive bouffant hair when he got on the boat, their curiosity began to take over again.
Before, he thought that the man with fluffy hair was a police officer, but now it seems that he is with Xia Chuan.
"Oh, this is my friend Frank, just think of him as my assistant."
Frank?
Conan glanced at Frank several times out of the corner of his eye. This guy, who was less than 1.5 meters tall, looked a little familiar.
From what I just heard him say and the way he walked, I think I've seen him before.
But he had no idea when it happened, it just gave him a familiar yet strange feeling.
"Forget it, maybe we met when Xiaolan and I went to the United States..."
Frank looked like a foreigner, and Conan could only conclude that he had seen him a few years ago. There was nothing he could do about it, as having a good memory also had its disadvantages.
Many times, when I see someone randomly, I feel like I have seen the person somewhere before.
Toru Amuro didn't come and didn't hear Conan's mumbling, otherwise he would have felt the same way.
The two had the same memory, but also suffered from the same disease.
It can barely be considered hyperthymesia, but only a little bit, so the condition is not too serious.
At least it won’t give me a headache.
"Little Conan, just call me Uncle Frank."
Frank bent down and touched the Death Elementary School Student's head.
After all, there are not many such opportunities. Most of the time, he is the one who gets patted on the head. Now that he can extend his claws to children, Frank always has a sense of satisfaction and that life is worth it.
Moreover, he is the son of an idol.
"Please..."
Conan reluctantly escaped from the clutches of the devil, and the way the other person looked at him made him feel that he was not a good person.
Damn adults, they just like to touch his head, his hair is almost pulled out bald.
"Uncle Frank, do you have any skills?"
Conan's suspicion was hard to deal with, so he followed Natsukawa and the others all the way to the hall and did not leave. This resulted in Natsukawa having no chance to find Kaito who was pretending to be Suzuki Shiro.
"What skills?" Frank knew what the other party wanted to ask, but he played dumb.
“For example, Uncle Xia Chuan has extraordinary intelligence and martial arts skills.
Uncle Frank can be friends with Uncle Xia Chuan, so he must have some extraordinary qualities, right? "
Conan thought that if he learned more about this kind of information, he might be able to use it someday.
With Uncle Xiachuan here, there shouldn't be any problem in asking the other party to move.
He heard that Xia Chuan had a good friend, but he had never met him in person, so he thought it was Frank.
Excellent people are surrounded by excellent people, and fools are surrounded by fools. He believes that Frank is definitely outstanding in some field.
"Oh——" Frank said a long word, and under Conan's expectant gaze, he waved to the waiter next to him.
He took the drink from the other person's hand and placed a picture of Natsume Soseki on his plate.
"..."
"Did you see it?" Frank waved his hand to let the waiter leave, then touched Conan's head again and said, "This is uncle's skill, isn't it amazing?"
"What kind of skill is this?" Conan rolled his eyes.
However, Frank obviously also has a secret. It must be like this. He must have an ulterior motive like Xia Chuan.
Otherwise there is no need to fool yourself like this.
Aniya said that when she and her father came to Neon, her father's good friend also came.
Xia Chuan's whereabouts are mysterious, and there is also Frank whose identity is unknown.
Are they carrying out some mission?
Conan immediately thought of some mysterious spy organization.
Things like CIA, FBI, MI6 and so on.
That doesn't make sense. How could you carry a child with you on a mission? That's too unrealistic.
Given how much Xiachuan cares about Anya, he would definitely not take her into danger when carrying out the mission.
So, this idea is wrong.
"Uncle's skill is money. How about that? Isn't it very handsome?"
"Yes, yes."
Conan remained silent. Maybe he guessed wrong. Sometimes there are one or two stupid people around outstanding people.
Just like vodka next to gin.
According to Huibara, this guy seems to be in a daze.
And myself. Everyone around me, whether it’s Anya or the other three little ones in the Junior Detective League, are all so silly and cute.
The famous detective frantically imagined for a long time, and after praising one and criticizing the other, he wanted to say something, but he was interrupted before he could open his mouth.
"Okay, Frank, take Conan to find Xiaolan and the others. I think I saw someone I know, so I'll go over and say hello."
Xiachuan waved his hand and asked Frank to take Conan away. The other party was too much of an eyesore here and would affect his search for the zoo members.
"alright."
Frank agreed and didn't give Conan a chance to object. He took the other's hand and walked away.
Before leaving, Conan saw Natsukawa walking towards the crowd.
Among the crowd, there was a young woman chatting with the guests around her.
"An acquaintance, you must be talking about Ryūmoto Natsue, right?"
After confirming that Xiachuan did not deliberately send him away, Conan stopped thinking about it and had no intention of continuing to entangle with Frank.
Today's target is Kaito Kidd.
Kaito Kidd is at least 1.7 meters tall and very young, while Frank in front of him is only 1.5 meters tall, so it is definitely not him.
Very good, one more person has been eliminated, and there are 498 left!
Comforting himself in this way, Conan had unknowingly returned to Xiaolan's side.
Chapter 226 The Zoo and the Winery Have a Feud (More Updates, Please Subscribe)
After this time-wasting operation, it was time for the cruise ship to set sail and the party was about to begin.
On the deck, participants in the cabin lounge gradually appeared in the banquet hall.
This cruise ship is at least several times larger than the Silent Cruise Ship of the Ryomoto Group. The banquet hall can accommodate 500 people without being crowded. This is also a way for the Suzuki family to demonstrate their strength.
Natsukawa and Ryūmoto Natsue chatted for a few words, and naturally saw Baileys following them.
Baileys has won the trust of Ryoumoto Natsue. Even when Ryoumoto Natsue is about to be sidelined, the other party remains unaware and trusts him extremely.
This is a typical case of helping to count money after being sold.
In response, Xia Chuan could only respond with a sympathetic smile.
This is not his business.
In addition, Baileys is worthy of being Vermouth's apprentice, and she is dressed just as sexy.
The low-cut tube top and high-cut dress reveal her white chest muscles and long legs, which are eye-catching.
Some of the business elites in disguise came just to watch the game up close.
During this time, he also saw Pisk.
Pisk is indeed a celebrity in the business world, and there are many business elites gathered around him. I think they are exchanging experiences or discussing some cooperation matters.
In addition to normal conversations, some people also regarded this party as a good place to discuss cooperation.
After all, each of them is a top chaebol in Japan, and if we can negotiate a collaboration, the gains will be huge.
After making a quick note of the two people's positions, he walked to the vicinity of "Suzuki Shiro", winked at him, and went to the corner to wait.
Soon, "Shiro Suzuki" appeared in front of him.
"I say, you found out even this? Your eyes are too sharp."
Kaito didn't know what to say.
He had studied Suzuki Shiro's habits and personality thoroughly in advance, so his disguise this time was completely professional. What went wrong? Natsukawa still recognized him at a glance.
He didn't even notice that the other person was observing him, as if he recognized him the first time he saw him.
Even Suzuki Tomoko, the woman who was Suzuki Shiro's bedmate, didn't notice it, but Natsukawa discovered it. Could it be that his disguise skills were really seen through?
It's really off the mark.
Of course, Xia Chuan would not tell the other party that he had an observant perspective. He could only shake his head and said in a sophisticated manner: "An imitator can never become the imitated. You may pretend to be very similar, but there will always be some flaws."
"So where did the flaw come from?"
Xia Chuan smiled and said, "President Suzuki should still be reading the newspaper at home at this time, right? You are really brave enough to pretend to be the other party. Aren't you afraid that he will hire someone to kill you later?"
With the strength of the Suzuki Group, if they just casually paid for the purchase of this cruise ship, there would definitely be countless assassins in the dark world who would target Kaito Kid.
Maybe even the zoo will be tempted.
The zoo knows that Kuroba Toichi is Kaito Kid. Based on this, if they investigate carefully, it is possible to find out that the second Kaito Kid is Kuroba Kaito.
Even if they can't find out, they can choose to kidnap Kuroba Kaito and threaten Kuroba Toichi with his life.
When the chaebols get serious, sometimes even the government trembles in fear. You can refer to our neighboring country, South Korea.
“I see, you installed nails in Suzuki’s house in advance.
I said, my disguise is so perfect, how could I be discovered? "
Kaito chuckled and said, "Hehe, President Suzuki has such a big family, he will definitely not argue with me. Besides, I showed up this time to help them keep the Black Star. They can't thank me enough."
"They don't know." Xia Chuan shook his head, then got straight to the point and asked, "Did you find anyone from the zoo?"
Speaking of the zoo, Kaito's expression immediately became serious. He looked around and confirmed that there was no one around. Then he said, "I found Snake. This guy disguised himself as a local tycoon in Tokyo."
As he spoke, he looked in one direction obscurely.
Xia Chuan looked in the direction the other person was heading, and his smiling face froze for a moment.
"Who is that person you are talking about?" Xia Chuan asked again in disbelief.
"Look, that's the guy." Kaito pointed him out carefully again.
"You said he pretended to be Kenzo Masuyama?"
Xia Chuan frowned and stopped smiling. Things seemed to have taken a strange turn inexplicably. Snake pretended to be Kenzo Masuyama. Wasn't this a bit too serious?
Kenzo Masuyama is nearly 80 years old, and he was impersonated by the other party. So what is the situation now? Could he be killed by Snake?
If so, that would be fun.
The winery is not easy to deal with. If Gin knew about this, even if he doesn't like Pisco, he would still take revenge on him, right?
However, the possibility of this happening is relatively small. After all, Pisker is the boss of a car company. It is highly unlikely that Snake will kill him. At most, he will knock him out and hide him.
"Any questions?"
Kaito scratched his head, clearly confused by Natsukawa's expression.
Could it be that Natsukawa knows Kenzo Masuyama?
