Conan: I don't do anything? If I really do it, you won't be happy.

Chapter 111 Exile is already the greatest mercy!

After hearing Sonoko's words, Suzuki Shiro looked at Ai thoughtfully, nodded to her, and gave her a kind smile.

While Shiro Suzuki was getting to know everyone present, Teruyuki was also observing the Suzuki Group's chairman, who was kind and easy-going.

Hattori Heiji, ever the friendly type, waved his hand and confidently told Suzuki Shiro, "Leave it to us, old man!"

Before Suzuki Shiro could react, Kogoro Mouri said to Hattori Heiji with some anxiety, "You brat, how dare you call Chairman Suzuki an old man!"

"It's alright, Mr. Mori, let me introduce the other guests to them!" Suzuki Shiro waved his hand, not really caring about Hattori Heiji's form of address.

As a semi-detective enthusiast, Shiro Suzuki holds detectives in high regard, just as he admires Kogoro Mouri.

Even if it's a child like Conan, as long as he demonstrates extraordinary detective abilities, he will still be respected and trusted.

What's more, this was a friend introduced by my own daughter.

As he spoke, he directed everyone's attention to the guests on the sofa.

The Russian Embassy Secretary Siryuv Chinnikov, jewelry and art dealer Inui Shoichi, Romanov dynasty researcher Pusi Qinglan, professional photographer Kankawa Ryu, and others.

After a brief introduction, Suzuki Shiro said to Urashi Seiran and the others, "Everyone, my daughter has brought a friend over. Let's talk about the egg another day!"

After saying that, she invited the detective team and the newly arrived Nakamori Ginzo to analyze the Phantom Thief Kid's code together, while the others were entertained by Sonoko and allowed to visit the Emperor's Easter Egg.

Huijie naturally followed Ai to the visiting group.

……

Recalling Pu Siqinglan's "Hello" that sounded like she was at a "level 10 in Chinese," Huijie found it increasingly amusing and almost burst out laughing.

Ai, who was standing next to Keisuke, noticed his actions and looked at him with some surprise. After thinking for a moment, she leaned close to Keisuke's ear and whispered:

"Miss Pu Siqinglan seemed to be speaking Chinese, but unfortunately, Chinese is not one of the foreign languages ​​I am proficient in."

When Huijie heard Ai's words, he came to his senses, looked at Ai who was almost close to his ear, and subconsciously kissed her. Then he said in a somewhat amazed tone, "As expected of my Ai, she knows so much!"

Ai blushed slightly upon hearing Keisuke's compliment. She looked around, then adjusted her hat and chuckled at Keisuke, saying, "Want to learn? I'll teach you!"

"Help me, Ai-sensei! Please become my foreign language teacher and cramming foreign language knowledge into me!" Upon hearing this, Keisuke immediately satisfied Ai-sensei's desire to teach and readily agreed.

"Foreign language teacher...indoctrination..." Ai blushed slightly, seemingly lost in thought, and gently punched Keisuke, saying, "What are you talking about? You hentai~"

"Huh??" Hui Jie looked at Ai in surprise. He admitted that he was indeed teasing Ai, but he didn't expect that Ai could understand him!
Ai realized from Keisuke's eyes what terrible thing she had just said, so she pretended to be calm, turned Keisuke's head toward the Easter Egg, and pretended that nothing had happened.

Just as Huijie was about to continue teasing Ai, Sonoko, who had noticed their little actions long ago and was already jealous and biting her handkerchief, grabbed the back of her clothes and lifted her up.

"You brat, I've put up with you for far too long!"

"Hehehe!" Sonoko glanced at Keisuke, then at Ai, and let out a villainous laugh before speaking righteously:

"You have violated the Galaxy's unforgivable anti-PDA law. From now on, you and Ai will be separated and will not be allowed to see each other!"

Then Sonoko led Keisuke to Suzuki Shiro's side, lifted Keisuke in her hand, and said:
"By the way, Dad, when Uncle Jiroji challenged Kid last time, it was Huijie who guessed Kid's idea. Although he didn't succeed in the end, I think this child can provide you with some ideas, so I'll lend him to you for now."

Upon hearing Sonoko's words, Nakamori Ginzo recalled the scene when he last met Keisuke. He suddenly slapped his palm and exclaimed in realization, "I remember now, you were the temporary head of the Suzuki Museum appointed by this young lady back then!"

"We worked together with that little girl to find Kidd's trail, but unfortunately we were one step behind and he still managed to escape!"

At this point, Suzuki Shiro thought for a moment and said, "Oh right, I heard about this from my cousin Jirokichi. Back then, Conan found the jewel and it was on the front page of the newspaper."

"The second piece of information is that the head of the Suzuki Museum cooperated with the police to find Kid's whereabouts; the third piece of information is about him, and he was quite upset about it for a while!"

"No wonder when I gave the museum director the bonus later, he said he felt unworthy of it!"

Seeing everyone's attention focused on Keisuke, Sonoko chuckled. After looking around, she chose to place Keisuke between Conan and Heiji Hattori. Looking at the speechless Keisuke, Sonoko crossed her arms and revealed a smug smile: "Exile is already the greatest mercy!"

After saying that, Sonoko, satisfied, turned and returned to her group of visitors, leaving Keisuke and the others to analyze the Phantom Thief Kid's pre-announcement letter.

Conan and Heiji Hattori exchanged a glance, then pressed Keisuke down onto the sofa. Heiji Hattori smiled and said, "Alright, focus on the notice and don't worry about that anymore."

Conan nodded in agreement. Knowing Keisuke's personality, he decided to use a bribe, saying, "Since Sonoko-neechan won't let you go back anyway, why don't we crack the code together first, and then go together? That way, she won't have anything to say."

Hui Jie looked helplessly at the two young guys who didn't know the joy of love, rolled his eyes and said, "How could you two mystery fanatics know the beauty of love? Well, I guess you'll only understand this kind of thing when you reach my age."

"Do you want to hear what you're saying?" Hattori Heiji's lips twitched as he looked at Keisuke speechlessly.

"I know! It's 3 a.m. tomorrow!" Kogoro Mouri said confidently, and then shared his analysis with everyone.

Listening to Kogoro Mouri's analysis, everyone present suddenly realized the truth, and even Heiji Hattori felt that Kogoro Mouri's words made sense.

Only Conan frowned, then glanced at the expressionless Keisuke, and saw that he had gotten up to find Ai after seeing that Kogoro Mouri had given an answer.
