Thinking about what had just happened, Hattori Heiji was still a little shaken; chasing after Kaito Kid almost cost him his life.
"Who knows? But that guy was a very accurate shot. His shot probably hit Kidd's monocle, but it was blocked."
Conan rubbed the lens in his hand.
Hattori Heiji realized the problem: "Could it be that the fake Memory Egg was stolen by that person?! Then it seems that his goal was also the Memory Egg!"
Conan hummed in agreement and said, "Luckily, it's still in our hands."
"That fortune slip was pretty accurate, wasn't it?" Hattori Heiji suddenly remembered the bad fortune slip Conan drew that day.
Conan's lips twitched; he hadn't expected Heiji Hattori to bring this up so suddenly.
It must be a coincidence!
Chapter 126 The Second Egg of Memories
That night, the police searched desperately in the waters of Osaka Bay, but still could not find any trace of Kaito Kid, and could not know whether he was alive or dead.
Heiji Hattori suffered a shoulder contusion and was hospitalized, while Conan only sustained minor injuries.
However, Conan was severely scolded by Kogoro Mouri and Ran together.
According to the two, the mysterious person who took down Kaito Kid last night even used a grenade.
President's Office.
Everyone else was there except for Heiji Hattori and Kazuha Toyama.
This includes Pu Siqinglan, Qian Jiangyi, and others whom I met that day.
These people came after hearing about what happened last night.
Kitagawa Taki took out the real Egg of Memory and placed it on the table.
Upon learning that the Egg of Memories had not been stolen, the group displayed various expressions.
"Is Kaito Kid dead?" Sonoko said.
Kitagawa Taki said confidently, "No, that won't happen."
Kaito Kuroba isn't so easy to kill, but this time that mysterious person really gave him a hard time.
Falling into the sea is practically the same as killing him.
The fish in the sea must have given Kaito Kuroba a good beating, right?
Conan didn't dare to say a word and sat obediently on the sofa.
At that moment, Secretary Nishino Masato came in and reported, "President, a woman says she has something very important to discuss with you, regarding the Egg of Memories!"
After a moment's thought, Shiro Suzuki said, "Please invite her up!"
Before long, Masato Nishino returned to the chairman's office with the woman and an old man.
According to the woman, her name is Natsumi Kosaka, and the old man is her housekeeper.
She then recounted the origins of her family's connection to the Egg of Memories—
Her great-grandfather, Kiichi, worked in a workshop in Faberuge and married a Russian woman there. After they returned to Japan, her great-grandmother was born, and then passed away.
Nine years later, my great-grandfather also passed away. Just last month, my grandmother also passed away. While sorting through her belongings, she found a drawing made by my great-grandfather.
Natsumi Kosaka took out one, or rather two, pieces of paper from her handbag and laid them out on the table.
“Memories.” Suzuki Shiro leaned closer to take a look. The word “Memories” was written in English at the bottom of the drawing. When the two pieces of paper were put together, they did indeed look like the Egg of Memories.
Kitagawa Taki glanced at them and said, "These should be two 'eggs.' Look closely; the patterns on the bottom and top don't match."
Kogoro Mouri stared wide-eyed, examined it closely, and murmured, "That's true."
While everyone was looking at the pictures, Conan quietly started playing with the Egg of Memories.
He picked up the egg of memories and saw that there was a small mirror at the bottom, so he poked it with his hand.
To everyone's surprise, the mirror fell down with a crisp sound.
Kogoro Mori yelled, "What are you doing, you brat?!"
Eight hundred million worth of eggs—even if he sold them, he couldn't afford to lose that much!
Sonoko waved her hand dismissively, saying, "It's alright, that mirror is easy to disassemble!"
Conan quickly picked up the mirror and tried to put it back.
"Wait!" Ai Haibara called out to Conan, "That mirror seems to be reflecting something."
From her perspective, she could vaguely see something reflected in the mirror.
Upon hearing this, Conan picked up the mirror and held it up to his hand. Through the light, he could also see a blurry pattern.
"Mr. Nishino, could you please turn off the light?" Conan called out to Masato Nishino as he turned around.
Masato Nishino hesitated for a moment, then turned off the light.
Conan shone the flashlight from his watch onto the mirror, and the light reflected off the wall, revealing a castle image.
Sonoko exclaimed, "How amazing!"
"This is a magic mirror!"
Kitagawa Taki knew about this thing; it was called the Light-Transmitting Mirror, also known as the Magic Mirror.
Pu Siqinglan said, "I've heard that there are magical mirrors in China. These mirrors are specially crafted and can reflect patterns."
Pu Siqinglan wore a red cheongsam today with a very high slit, which looked quite sexy.
Natsumi Kosaka looked at the castle in the picture and found it very familiar. She asked the butler beside her, "Sawabe, what is this castle?"
The butler said, "That's right, it's the castle in Yokosuka."
"Is it that castle that always appears in the advertisements?" Xiaolan had heard of this castle before.
Natsumi Kosaka nodded: "Yes, that castle was built by my great-grandfather."
Kogoro Mouri clapped his hands excitedly and interjected, "Miss Kosaka, according to my deduction, the second Egg of Memory should be inside that castle!"
“Actually, besides the blueprints, there’s also a key.” As she spoke, Natsumi Kosaka took out a huge key from her handbag.
Kogoro Mori said decisively, "In my opinion, this is the key to where the second Egg of Memory is hidden!"
Upon hearing these words, Qian Jiang and the others revealed greedy eyes.
"Mr. Mori, Mr. Kitagawa, would you be willing to accompany me back to the castle?"
Natsumi Kosaka had heard of the names "Sleeping Kogoro" and Taki Kitagawa, so she invited the two of them.
"I'd be happy to!"
When a beautiful woman invites him to her invitation, Kogoro Mouri has no reason to refuse.
"I'm fine with it too."
Kitagawa Taki still wanted to figure out Kuroba Kaito's purpose in stealing the "egg"! He failed yesterday, so he'll definitely come back for more.
With the addition of that mysterious person who also wants the Egg of Memories, it's not safe for this "egg" to stay at Sonoko's house.
Sileo looked at Natsumi Kosaka with eager eyes: "Please let me come along!"
Qian Jiangyi: "Me too!"
Pu Siqinglan and Han Chuanlong both really wanted to go.
Natsumi Kosaka was very generous and said with a smile, "No problem, let's all go together!"
After receiving Natsumi Kosaka's permission, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Conan's gaze swept across the faces of the group, and he saw greed.
The group seemed very eager for the second Egg of Memory, appearing determined to obtain it.
This made him wonder if Kidd had also stolen the Egg of Memories because of its high value.
But then he rejected the idea, which was not in line with Kidd's usual style.
At this moment, Sonoko excitedly said, "Then let's go on my family's boat!"
The idea of treasure hunting in an ancient castle sounds very interesting.
Because of the large number of people, taking a ferry from Osaka to Yokosuka is a good option.
……
After everyone left the chairman's office, Kitagawa Taki, who was left behind, looked at Suzuki Shiro and said, "Chairman Suzuki, could I keep this Egg of Memories for now?"
Kitagawa Taki explained, "Kid and that mysterious person definitely won't let this go."
Shiro Suzuki was quite decisive and agreed to Taki Kitagawa's request without hesitation.
"Kitagawa, I have complete confidence in entrusting the Egg of Memories to you!" Suzuki Shiro said with a smile.
Chapter 127 You didn't want to either...
in the afternoon.
Under Shiro Suzuki's arrangement, everyone boarded the "boat" that Sonoko had mentioned.
Looking at the luxurious cruise ship in front of him, and then at the group of about a dozen people, he realized that...
Kitagawa Taki felt that Sonoko probably had some misunderstanding about boats.
Apart from Hanchuan Long, the group gathered on the deck to chat after boarding the ship. In particular, Qian Jiangyi and the others were extremely eager to hear about Xiangshang Natsumi, and couldn't wait to get information about the second Memory Egg from her.
"So Miss Kosaka has been living in Paris since she was twenty!"
Natsumi Kosaka just shared some of her experiences.
“Yes, that’s why my Japanese is a bit strange,” Natsumi Kosaka laughed, then seemed to remember something and her face showed a look of reminiscence. “Speaking of strange Japanese, I remember a sentence from when I was a child that left a deep impression on me.”
Sonoko, holding a small pastry, asked curiously, "Eh, what's that saying?"
"Baru Xue Ni Ku Ka Da Mei".
I could understand every single word Natsumi Kosaka said, but when they were put together, they were meaningless.
