Conan: Starting out by living with a divorced older sister

"What's so great about him? No matter how great he is, he's still a thief. It's him who makes my father always work overtime, and he's also in a state of madness. It seems like he's at war with Kaito Kid and he must catch him. I hate him so much!" said Nakamori Aoko beside Xiaolan.

"Ah..." After hearing what Nakamori Aoko said, Xiaolan was speechless.

But he still said, "But don't you think Kaito Kidd is handsome? Especially his snow-white suit and magic-like skills."

"I say, Xiaolan, listen to what you are saying. You are now the vice president of the Xiadao Lanyue Fans Club! You are actually praising Kidd there," said Sonoko with some dissatisfaction.

"Oh, yes, sorry, I accidentally told the truth." Xiaolan said, not looking embarrassed at all.

Officer Chamu on the stage continued, "He is a highly skilled criminal who cannot be judged by common sense. The police suspect that this guy may have already infiltrated among you and passed himself off as a fake.

Under normal circumstances, our police should conduct a thorough investigation of everyone one by one.

But this time, in order not to spoil everyone's fun, we will give up.

Everyone can use a secret code, and each person can form a group with the people around them and decide on a secret code that only the two of you know. "

"I see. This way, there's no way that guy can change from one person to another. The police can also more easily identify suspicious individuals."

Kogoro Mori in the audience was flattering him. After all, the rank of Officer Chaki was not low and he was his superior before.

"What code do you want to choose, Conan?" asked Xiaolan.

Conan thought for a moment, "Well, if I were to say Sherlock Holmes."

Xiaolan then said: "Then I'll say Lupin!"

As soon as he finished speaking, all the lights in the banquet hall went out.

At the same time, there was a smug laugh: "Hahaha, hahaha~"

A spotlight was turned on, shining on a corner of the banquet hall.

Kaito Kidd suddenly appeared there!

He threatened: "So what if you designed the secret code, I have already got the Dark Night Star." As he said this, he shook the Dark Night Star in his hand, as if he was showing off his power to everyone!

"Ah!" x, everyone exclaimed!

Chapter 277 Nothing more than that

"This thief is really a headache! If Kaito Kid is so bold, we really need to deal with him quickly," said Tomoko Suzuki. She then took out a pistol from her handbag, pointed it at Kaito Kid in the corner, and pulled the trigger.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!", three shots, all hit Kaito Kidd, causing him to fall down.

Tomoko Suzuki also blew away the smoke from the muzzle of the gun in a cool manner.

"Mom!" Sonoko asked with some blame, because even if she didn't like Kid, she had never thought of killing him.

At this time, the lights that had been extinguished lit up again, and Kidd was seen lying on a dining table!

Officer Nakamori stepped forward and asked, "What on earth are you doing!" The meaning was obvious: even if you were the wife of a Suzuki family tycoon, you couldn't shoot and kill people in public.

"Officer Nakamori, why are you so nervous? Kidd is not dead yet. He has just been captured by my guards. You can enjoy your meal now."

"Also, this is the talented magician I hired at a high price, Mr. Sanada Kazuzo. The performance just now was an entertainment program we brought to you all."

"Dear guests, to thank Mr. Sanada for interpreting the final fate of Kaito Kid for us, please give a round of applause to Mr. Sanada."

Everyone had to give face to Mrs. Suzuki, and warm applause broke out in the banquet hall.

Among them, Hatamoto Shoji said: "Kaito Kid is a master of magic himself, so it is most appropriate to let a master of magic perform a master of magic."

"That's right," said Sanada Kazuzo as he changed back into his own clothes. "Whether it's him or me, we are both artists who deceive people! I am a complete magician and will never lose to him, a guy who is a thief as a full-time job.

Dear guests, please move to the stage and enjoy the magic show I will bring to you."

Everyone followed Kazuzo Sanada to the edge of the stage.

After hearing what Sanada Kazuzo had just said, Conan couldn't help but think of what Kaito Kid had said to him before:

If the thief is an artist who is skilled in stealing treasures and is creative, then the detective is a person who only follows the thief and nitpicks, and is at best a critic.

At the same time, Conan's keen sixth sense detected that Kidd was among the crowd.

"Now, I will show you the most basic and common card magic!"

"Wait!" A man with long hair, Mr. Mifune, said in the crowd, "The magician has always been the one cutting the cards. How about I cut the cards instead?"

"No problem." Sanada Kazuzo agreed readily, and said, "Everyone can cut the cards, it's okay."

Just like that, Mr. Mifune cut it first, then Mr. Hatamoto cut it, and then the son of the Tozawa family, who was Suzuki Ayako's fiancé, also cut it, but they accidentally scattered the cards all over the floor.

Suzuki Ayako, who was standing by, looked at her somewhat unreliable fiancé and sighed inwardly, thinking: Hey, he's actually a good guy, he doesn't have the airs of a rich boy, nor is he a playboy, but I always feel like something is missing. We've been together for a long time, but I just don't see any spark. Should I really marry him?

She stood there indifferently, thinking about something. Instead, Sonoko and Xiaolan stepped forward to help pick up the cards scattered on the ground, and finally returned them to Sanada Kazuzo.

In this way, Xiaolan and Sonoko were also called by Sanada Kazuzo and invited to be guests.

"Thank you both ladies for your help. I will give you a card." Kazuzo Sanada spread the cards out in a fan shape and asked the two to draw a card.

Just when Xiaolan reached out to draw a card, she was stopped by Kazuzo Sanada.

"Beautiful lady, please wait a moment. Before you draw the cards, let me use my X-ray eyes to see what cards you will draw." After saying that, he pretended to perform some actions, as if he was performing some magic.

Suddenly, a white dove appeared above the shoulder, and everyone's attention was attracted by the sudden appearance of the living pigeon.

"Pigeon? Actually, I am the one who uses this pigeon to adjust the atmosphere. I have just seen the card that this lady is going to draw. It is an Ace of Hearts. Come on, please let this lady draw the card first." After saying this, Kazuzo Sanada handed the cards to Xiaolan.

Xiaolan unconsciously revealed a meaningful smile at the corner of her mouth, but now everyone's attention was on the cards, so no one noticed.

Xiaolan turned her hand up and quickly drew a card. When she opened it, she and Sonoko beside her showed shocked expressions.

Because the card was not the Ace of Hearts. No, to be precise, it was not any card in the deck. Instead, it was written with Kidd's signature.

"I have come to your side like Xisha who was bewitched by the Queen of Egypt. Respectfully presented by Kaito Kid," Sonoko read aloud.

"Kid, Kidd appears!" These words caused quite a commotion among the guests at the scene.

Officers Chaki and Nakamori appeared quickly and loudly maintained order, asking everyone to calm down and keep quiet. They also confirmed the secret code that had just been agreed upon with their colleagues.

"Kaito Kidd, nothing special!" Just as everyone confirmed the code, a loud and charming voice came from outside.

The door of the banquet hall was also opened, and a dark purple figure flew in and landed among the crowd.

"Is this the Thief Lanyue? So cool, especially the clothes, so special, exuding nobility and mystery. And his voice is so nice, so charming." The crowd began to discuss in low voices, and the panic caused by Kidd just now had disappeared.

Suzuki Tomoko and the thief looked at each other from a distance. They saw the affection and expectation in each other's eyes.

However, Suzuki Tomoko did not show it, but wanted to see his subsequent performance.

The thief did not disappoint him and said loudly: "There is actually no mistake in the performance of this magician Mr. Sanada."

As he spoke, he walked forward and lifted up the top card in Sanada Kazuzo's hand, showing it to everyone. Yes, it was the Ace of Hearts.

At this time, Kazuzo Sanada also felt a little grateful to this chivalrous thief.

After all, it is very embarrassing to fail in a performance in front of so many people, especially when those present are all well-known figures.

"This is actually all Kaito Kid's tricks. As a magician, he uses another magician's performance to achieve his own goals. This is why what I just said is just that. Coincidentally, I am also a magician. Now I will reveal Kaito Kid's tricks to you."

As he spoke, he stretched out his hand with the back of his hand facing upwards towards Yuanzi who was standing beside him. Yuanzi didn't understand why he stretched out his hand and just stood there.

Until his hand reached Yuanzi, the thief flipped his palm and a rose appeared in his hand!

"I heard that Ms. Sonoko is the president of my fan club. Thank you for your support! This is for you."

Yuanzi took the rose with a blushing face.

Chapter 278 Walking on Water

The chivalrous thief did the same thing again and gave a flower to each of the people present, Kazuha, Aoko, and Ayako.

“No matter how precious the jewelry is, it is just a thing outside of one’s body. The pure sincerity of a girl is more worthy of possession and care!”

The thief's behavior and words aroused strong dissatisfaction from Kyogoku Makoto, Hattori Heiji, the son of the Tozawa family, and Xiaolan who were present!

The thief looked at Xiaolan and continued, "It is not a gentleman's behavior to knock out a pure and beautiful girl and hide her in a lifeboat!"

Fortunately, when he found Xiaolan, her clothes were intact, with no signs of having been touched or lifted, otherwise, he would not have spoken to Kaito Kid so calmly.

Xiaolan pretended not to understand and said, "I'm the vice president of your fan club, and you actually doubt me! I'm so sad. I've stopped being a fan of you a long time ago. In comparison, Kaito Kidd might be a better choice. Eh? Why is the Dark Night Star on me gone? Oh, it's over there, can that gentleman please help me pick it up?"

The person who was called bent down to pick it up, but before he touched it, the Dark Night Star on the ground exploded and thick smoke came out.

This caused quite a panic among the crowd. "What? This thing will explode, and I don't want to wear it!"

The guests took off the Dark Night Stars they were wearing, and some of them fell to the ground and exploded, emitting thick smoke.

Everyone began to flee outside the banquet hall in panic.

In the smoke and the crowd, Suzuki Tomoko was caught off guard and was almost knocked down. When she fell, she fell into a familiar and warm embrace.

And whispered in her ear: "I'm here! Sorry to have kept you waiting!"

Even though I trusted him very much before, I still felt uneasy when he didn't show up, especially as a four-month pregnant woman, I was more likely to have some wild thoughts.

At this moment, the stone in her heart finally fell to the ground. At the same time, she felt a sense of joy and grievance.

Amid mixed emotions, in the warm embrace of her lover, this business woman finally showed her true self.

In the smoke, the thief kissed Suzuki Tomoko's charming lavender lips.

Driven by her long-standing longing, Suzuki Tomoko did not care about the current situation and tried hard to respond.

The Kaito Kidd, who transformed into Xiaolan, also took advantage of the chaos to escape. He knew that he could not steal the Dark Night Stars, so he gave up temporarily.

Conan was chasing after him.

Kyogoku Makoto, Hattori Heiji, and Okita Souji protected several girls including Kazuha Sonoko and Ayako behind them. On the other hand, the young master of the Tozawa family was knocked down and hid under a table.

Soon, the smoke cleared!

The people who were still in the banquet hall naturally saw the thief and Suzuki Tomoko kissing each other.

All the onlookers present were shocked.

Because they clearly saw that the thief's hands were gently caressing Suzuki Tomoko's waist, while Suzuki Tomoko put her arms around the thief's neck, raised her head slightly, and closed her eyes.

It is easy to tell whether Suzuki Tomoko was forced or took the initiative!

It was because she took the initiative that she was so shocked! You know, she is the wife of the Suzuki Group.

"Mom!" Sonoko was also a little unbelievable and tried to wake up her mother who was immersed in it.

My own mother and my idol kissed in public, how could this be possible?

Although the thief was curious about why Suzuki Tomoko, who was a virgin at the beginning, became Mrs. Suzuki, it was just curiosity and it did not affect Suzuki Tomoko's image and status in his heart at all.
