Conan: The Heart Thief

Lin Xiao laughed secretly in his heart but was too embarrassed to speak out loud, and even more embarrassed to meet Hattori Shizuka's eyes.

After breakfast, Lin Xiao received a call from Suzuki Sonoko.

"Lin Jun, have you arrived in Osaka now?"

The lively sounds of the garden rang through the receiver.

"Yes. I didn't expect you would recommend me to Hattori Heiji."

"Hehehe... I didn't expect that Hattori Heiji already knew you." Sonoko's giggles came from the phone, "Because Kaito Kid sent out a notice, I thought it would be great if you could come to Osaka to help. Now, you have replaced Kudo Shinichi and are the high school detective in Tokyo."

"Sonoko, I made this special trip to Osaka just for you."

"I know what compensation you want. I can do whatever it is for you."

"Uh... no need for compensation..."

"Hehehe... Lin-kun, when will you and Hattori-kun come to the Suzuki Museum of Art?"

Lin Xiao glanced at Hattori Heiji, and Hattori Heiji made an OK gesture.

"Hattori-kun and I can come over now."

"Okay, I'll come and pick you up to go to the art museum. Where are you and Hattori-kun now?"

"Hattori-kun and I are at Hattori-kun's house."

"I know...I'll be here now."

After a while, Suzuki Sonoko called again and said she had arrived.

Lin Xiao and Hattori Heiji walked out of the house, and a black extended version of Rolls-Royce was parked at the door of Hattori's house.

Hattori Heiji was a worldly-wise man, so he was used to it. However, Lin Xiao was curious. He also had the opportunity to experience the extended version of Rolls-Royce.

Hattori Heiji jumped into the car first, while Lin Xiao greeted Hattori Shizuka who was seeing him off.

"Aunt Jinghua, there is still a long time to come. I will come to find you."

Lin Xiao gently stroked Hattori Shizuka's face, what a stunning beauty.

"Who asked you to look for me, kid!"

Hattori Shizuka subconsciously took a step back, looking panicked.

"I'm leaving."

"Get out of here now."

Lin Xiao curled his lips into a smile, then got into the luxury car.

The interior of the luxury car is very luxurious, with two rows of seats where people can sit face to face and communicate, just like a small teahouse.

"It's so luxurious, really exaggerated." Lin Xiao couldn't help but sigh.

"Ms. Suzuki is the daughter of the Suzuki Group. This is no big deal." After all, the Hattori family belongs to the upper class circle in Japan. Hattori Heiji and Suzuki Sonoko have known each other for a long time.

Suzuki Sonoko laughed: "The high school detectives from Kanto and the high school detectives from other places have joined forces, and Kaito Kid will have no chance of escaping."

Lin Xiao couldn't help but complain: "Yuan Zi, I remember that you seem to be a fan of Kaito Kidd. Why do you want Kaito Kidd to be caught so much?"

Suzuki Sonoko blushed inexplicably when Lin Xiao asked her this: "I'm... a fan of someone else now, is that not okay?"

Suzuki Sonoko has become a fan of other people, and Kaito Kid has naturally become her black history. She now hopes that Kaito Kid will be arrested by the police and sent to prison.

Chapter 82: Alone with Suzuki Sonoko

In the morning, the sun was soft and comfortable, illuminating the earth, and a stretched version of Rolls-Royce was driving on the streets of Osaka.

Yuanzi asked curiously, "Lin-kun, have you solved the puzzle of Kaito Kidd?"

Lin Xiao said: "Hattori-kun has been untied."

Hattori Heiji said with a smug look on his face: "I have solved the puzzle. It was just a trick played by a petty thief to deceive people."

After hearing this, Sonoko said happily: "I have always wanted to see the true face of Kaito Kidd. This time, we must catch Kaito Kidd!"

Hattori Heiji straightened his baseball cap and said confidently, "Of course, I will use Kaito Kid as a stepping stone to make my name as a Kansai high school detective famous!"

Lin Xiao said, "Yuan Zi, you have actually seen the true face of Kaito Kidd."

Yuanzi asked in confusion: "No!"

"Kaito Kid looks similar to Kudo Shinichi. Just think back to what Kudo Shinichi looks like and you'll be pretty close."

Kuroba Toichi and Kudo Yusaku are brothers, so it makes sense that Kudo Shinichi and Kuroba Kaito look alike.

"No way……"

Sonoko looked disappointed. She had imagined several different faces of Kaito Kid.

The extended version of the Rolls-Royce drove to the Osaka Suzuki Museum of Art, and the three got out of the car.

Suzuki Sonoko brought two high school detectives directly to the art museum's office.

Suzuki Sonoko's father, Suzuki Shiro, had already learned the news in advance and was waiting for the three to arrive.

"Dad, Detective Hayashi and Detective Hattori are here." Suzuki Sonoko greeted her father.

"Okay, okay..." Shiro Suzuki wore a pair of glasses and was white and fat like a big fat pig.

"Detective Hayashi, Detective Hattori. Welcome, welcome! With the help of two high school detectives, it seems that Kaito Kid will never come back."

Shiro Suzuki stretched out his chubby hand and shook hands with Lin Xiao and Hattori Heiji respectively.

Then, Shiro Suzuki introduced several other guests.

A foreign man with gray hair, strong shoulders and a big waist, wearing a suit.

"This is...Siloufchinnikov!"

The foreign man politely stood up from the sofa and nodded to everyone.

"The guy next to you is Mr. Qian Jiangyi, the art dealer I found."

After introducing the beast Ovchinnikov, Suzuki Shiro pointed to the next shorter old man in a light red suit. The old man nodded politely to everyone.

"This lady is Miss Pu Silianglan, a researcher on the Romanov dynasty."

Shiro Suzuki pointed at a young woman in a blue uniform.

"Hello."

Pu Silianglan also greeted everyone politely.

"The last one is Mr. Ryu Kanakawa, a freelance photographer who applied to interview and photograph the Easter eggs."

Shiro Suzuki pointed at the man holding the camera.

"Hello."

Hattori Heiji asked curiously, "So, what is the value of this egg after appraisal?"

Qian Jiangyi blurted out: "800 million yen."

"What! 800 million yen? Are you sure this thing isn't used for money laundering?"

No matter how Hattori Heiji looked at it, he didn't think that this egg-like thing was worth the price.

"Young man, you have too little experience. If Mr. Suzuki is willing to give up, I am willing to give a little more!"

Qian Jiang said with great wealth. For an art dealer like him, the better the treasure, the more he wants to get it.

"Mr. Suzuki, the Emperor's Easter Egg is a Russian thing. Instead of selling it to such an unknown merchant, please donate it to our Russian Art Museum!"

Siluofuchinnikov glanced at Qian Jiangyi with dissatisfaction.

"What did you say? You dare to say that I came from an unknown place!"

General Qian yelled at the Russian angrily.

"Yeah, yeah, maybe taking pictures of people will be more fun than taking pictures of that egg!"

Seeing the two people unhappy with each other, Hanchuan Long, who was holding the camera, smiled with amusement, then stood up and glanced at Pu Silianglan who had not spoken: "You look like you don't care about it. If you are really a researcher of the Roshchino Dynasty, you should want it more than anyone else!"

"Yes, but 800 million yen is too expensive for me."

Pu Siyulan did not hide it.

"Indeed, if I try hard, I can only come up with 2 million..."

Hanchuan Long shook his head helplessly. From this sentence, it can be heard that he is also interested in this egg.

"Anyway, let's talk about the eggs another day!"

After hearing what the president said, Xishou Ovchinnikov, Qian Jiangyi, Pu Siqinglan, and Kanchuan Long could only pick up their bags and leave first.

"Shinichi, go get that egg."

Shiro Suzuki said to his secretary Shinichi Nishino.

Looking at the eggs on the table, Hattori Heiji looked left and right with great interest.

Lin Xiao also felt it was amazing that a broken egg was so valuable.

It has an oval shape, dark green stripes, and a few small holes on it, some of which have pieces of transparent glass on them.

Then, Shiro Suzuki opened the Egg of Memories, revealing a golden sculpture of the family inside.

"Inside is a model of Emperor Nicholas' family, all made of gold. Moreover, this egg has an interesting mechanism."

As he spoke, Shiro Suzuki took a small key, inserted it into the side of the egg, and rotated it a few times.

As the golden statue slowly rose, Emperor Nicholas, who was sitting on a chair, slowly opened a book in his hand. Surrounding him were his wife and children. The whole family seemed to be looking at something. The reason why this egg was called the Egg of Memory was because of the contents inside the egg.

"Are those sparkling gems inside the egg?"

Hattori Heiji pointed puzzledly at the ones in the middle that were flashing under the light.

"No."

Suzuki Shiro smiled and said, "That's just glass."

"Hey?"

Hattori Heiji was a little surprised.
