His gaze swept over the tourists, and when he saw a young boy and girl, his heart skipped a beat.

He couldn't help but rub his eyes. The boy looked almost exactly like him, or more accurately, like Shinichi Kudo.

The girl next to her wearing a hat looks somewhat like Ran!

Seeing the two chatting and laughing as they were about to leave the first exhibition hall, he quickly ran over and called them back.

"Little boy," Nakamori Aoko looked at Conan, who was all alone, bent down and asked softly, "Are you lost from your mom and dad?"

Kaito Kuroba secretly suppressed a laugh. The famous detective must feel really uncomfortable being treated like a little kid, right?

Seeing that Nakamori Aoko had misunderstood, Conan simply went along with it, nodded, and feigned a pitiful expression, saying, "Sister, can you take me to find my father?"

“No problem.” Nakamori Aoko, unsuspecting, patted Conan’s head.

"Kid, what's your name?"

Kaito Kuroba, suddenly seized by a playful impulse, gave Conan's head a good tug.

Nakamori Aoko slapped away Kuroba Kaito's hand and said with displeasure, "Hey, Kaito, what are you doing?"

Conan silently tidied his hair. He recalled his previous experience of being impersonated by Kaito Kid and became increasingly suspicious that the person in front of him was indeed Kaito Kid.

"My name is Conan Edogawa. Brother, sister, what are your names?" Conan is a master of being cute.

As expected, Nakamori Aoko felt a bit more favorably disposed towards the child, who was not angry at all and was even so well-behaved. She said, "My name is Nakamori Aoko, and this is Kuroba Kaito. You can just call me Aoko-neechan."

Nakamori?

No way?

Conan immediately thought of Inspector Nakamori, the "Kaito Kid specialist".

Seeing Conan acting cute, Kaito Kuroba felt a chill run down his spine. He couldn't help but imagine himself as Shinichi Kudo, and then he thought of himself.

Nakamori Aoko, not forgetting the important matter, asked, "Little brother, where was the last place you saw your mom and dad?"

Each individual exhibition hall is quite large, and in addition to a sunflower painting, there is related information and so on.

Conan pointed at the elevator and said in a child's voice, "I saw them go down."

Nakamori Aoko continued, "Do you know which exhibition hall they're going to?"

Conan shook his head blankly, but in his mind he was thinking about how to verify his guess.

Nakamori Aoko said, "Then let's look for them one by one."

"Qingzi, why bother? Just hand him over to the staff."

Kaito Kuroba knew that Conan must have come over to pretend to be him because he saw his face.

He also knew that he couldn't hide his true identity from Conan for long, since the two of them looked so alike.

However, he just didn't want Conan to have a smooth journey.

Although Nakamori Aoko also felt that what Kuroba Kaito said made some sense, his way of speaking was indeed somewhat inhumane.

Nakamori Aoko frowned, about to say something, when she was interrupted by Kuroba Kaito.

"Qingzi, think about it, it's so slow to lead him to find it floor by floor. It would be so much easier to just have the staff make an announcement over the loudspeaker!"

Seeing that he was about to be handed over to the staff, Conan's mind raced, and he cried out in pain.

Just as Nakamori Aoko was about to agree, she heard Conan's voice and hurriedly asked with concern, "Little brother, what's wrong?"

"My feet hurt..." Conan feigned a pitiful look, "Aoko-neechan, can you carry me?"

I rely on!

This detective is incredibly shameless!

Kaito Kuroba quickly interrupted.

Nakamori Aoko looked at Kuroba Kaito with a puzzled expression.

Kaito Kuroba chuckled sheepishly, "Aoko, don't move, I'll carry him! I'll do it!"

Conan feigned disappointment.

Kaito Kuroba didn't care at all, and simply picked up Conan, thinking about how to teach this brat a lesson.

Conan smirked and pinched Kaito Kuroba's cheek hard.

The texture is so realistic, it's definitely a real face!

Kaito Kuroba let out a strange cry, about to lash out, but then remembered that Aoko Nakamori, who knew nothing about Conan and treated him like a child, suppressed her anger.

Conan must have confirmed his identity just now, so he's not going to pretend anymore!

Kaito Kuroba warned in a low voice, "Detective, if you dare to make a move, I'll expose your secrets to Ran Mouri!"

After saying that, he reached out and pinched Conan's face hard to avenge the arrow he had just shot.

Conan gasped, but dared not utter a sound, and said fiercely, "Kid, it really was you, you bastard! What exactly do you want?"

Kaito Kuroba grinned smugly: "I'm looking at the paintings, didn't you see?"

Conan retorted, annoyed, "You know what I mean!"

“That’s a fake Kid.” Kaito Kuroba’s eyes darted around, and he continued, “That guy must be from the brewery.”

"What?" Conan exclaimed in a low voice.

Kaito Kuroba added, "It's very likely that this was done to lure me out."

Conan pondered to himself that what Kid said made a lot of sense and that it was entirely possible.

Do you know that person's exact identity?

Now that people from the distillery have finally reappeared, are Gin and vodka also nearby?

Thinking of this, Conan couldn't help but feel a little excited and nervous, because of Gin's ruthless killing persona.

Kaito Kuroba shook his head: "I don't know. I came here to find out."

Nakamori Aoko noticed that the two were far behind them, so she said, "Kaito, why are you walking so slowly?"

"Oh, here it comes!"

Kaito Kuroba responded and then whispered a reminder: "Detective, be careful, it's best not to get involved!"

Chapter 375 Madwoman

Time passed second by second.

Most visitors had already left the second exhibition hall and gone to the lower exhibition hall.

Miyatai Natsumi finally made a move; she quietly walked into the blind spot of the corridor's surveillance cameras.

There wasn't a soul in sight.

She pulled a lighter from among the fake sunflowers, a ruthless look appearing on her face.

"I advise you not to get yourself into trouble."

The sudden sound startled Miyako Natsumi. The next second, her hand was tightly grabbed by a large hand.

Looking back, it was Kitagawa Taki.

Her eyes widened in shock; there was clearly no one there.

At that moment, Kogoro Mouri's voice came through the earpiece: "Brother Kitagawa, what do you mean by 'playing with fire'? What's going on?"

Kitagawa Taki didn't turn off all communications, so the others naturally heard what he just said.

"Miss Natsumi is going to set us all on fire with a lighter!" Kitagawa Taki said, forcefully snatching the lighter from Miyadai Natsumi's hand.

"Mr. Kitagawa, what nonsense are you talking about?" Miyatai Natsumi's expression returned to normal.

"I've caught you red-handed, there's no need to keep pretending, right?"

Kitagawa Taki twisted hard, and Miyadai Natsumi cried out in pain.

Then he let go of Miyatai Natsumi, who lost her balance and collapsed to the ground.

"You think everything's fine just because there are no surveillance cameras here? To tell you the truth, I just moved the surveillance camera hidden in the sunflower to a different direction."

Kitagawa Taki glanced at the hidden surveillance camera behind him and continued, "Grandpa, you should be able to access it in the monitoring room."

Jirokichi Suzuki's voice came through the earphones: "Okay, Goto, you investigate!"

In less than two minutes, Suzuki Jirokichi had witnessed everything that had just happened. He asked in a deep voice, "Ms. Miyadai, why did you do this?"

Once Kogoro Mori realized the facts were confirmed, he quickly asked, "Could she be Kid in disguise?"

Kitagawa Taki said, "She's not Kaito Kid. If I'm not mistaken, her goal is the second Ashiya Sunflower!"

Although the sunflower has a retrieval device, it's likely that Natsumi Miyadai has already prepared a way to prevent the sunflower from being retrieved.

Miyatai Natsumi's expression shifted between anger and uncertainty. She raised her head, staring intently at Kitagawa Taki, her gaze seemingly intent on devouring him whole. She said viciously:

"Kitagawa Taki! Why do you keep ruining my plans?"

If it weren't for Kitagawa Taki, her plan would definitely have gone smoothly!

"Natsumi Miyatai, are you out of your mind?" Taki Kitagawa said, no longer holding back. "You planted bombs on the plane, filled the furrows of the fake sunflowers with turpentine, and tried to burn down the entire art museum. And you ask me why I stopped you?"

Miyatai Natsumi remained silent, only staring at Kitagawa Taki with hateful eyes.

Kitagawa Taki frowned. He had originally intended to hand Miyatai Natsumi over to the police and be done with it, but now it seemed he couldn't let her live!

Although he didn't think this woman could cause any trouble.

Suzuki Jirokichi then asked, "So, Ms. Miyadai, you joined my team just to ruin Ashiya Himawari?"

Miyadai Natsumi gave a cold laugh and said disdainfully, "The Ashiya Sunflower was destroyed in the Ashiya War long ago, so where did the Ashiya Sunflower come from? Besides, my target is not just that one, but also that fifth sunflower!"

Jirokichi Suzuki retorted, "The Ashiya Himawari has been authenticated by numerous experts and certified by many museums, including the Van Gogh Museum!"

Kogoro Mouri asked, puzzled, "And what does this have to do with the fifth sunflower?"

Miyatai Natsumi roared, "What's the use of expert appraisals? It's all about profit! The fifth sunflower painting is also a forgery!"

Jirokichi Suzuki: "The fifth sunflower painting was indeed identified as a forgery in history, but later the Art Institute of Chicago and the Van Gogh Museum published papers proving it to be genuine."

As an appraiser, Miss Miyatai, you should know this very well!
