Conan: What's wrong with my Yan Shuangying's painting style?

"Uncle Sakaguchi, do you think I can become as powerful as my sisters when I grow up?"

The little girl turned her head to look at Sakaguchi Masayoshi and asked.

However, Masayoshi Sakaguchi smiled, touched her little head and said.

"Of course. But if you do practice these skills, you just need to protect yourself."

"Mr. Yan will choose to continuously save people and help others achieve revenge. Ultimately, his goal is to reduce the number of avengers and prevent anyone from ruining their future life for revenge."

"China, you are still young and you have a bright future."

The barrister's gentle exhortation.

"Mr. Yan said that if you still want to be with him when you grow up, he will agree."

"As for now, he hopes you can resume your studies and live the life you should be living... I think it will only take half a year at most for Mr. Yan to resolve all your problems, right?"

Chapter 279 Actions of All Parties (1/5)

At night, a car left the Maori Detective Agency and drove to the theater.

Tokyo's renowned detective, Maori Kogoro, was feeling rather unhappy at the moment. As he was driving, his gaze fell into the rearview mirror, and he saw the yellow armored car following behind him.

That's Dr. Agasa's car.

He and Dr. Agasa are old friends. If Dr. Agasa wants to come and get some free tickets, he will definitely welcome him. However, Dr. Agasa has to bring the four funny guys from the Junior Detective League with him as well.

Although he has a cooperative relationship with the big names in the troupe, isn't it a bad idea to bring eight people to evade tickets at once?

I hope that when Miss Makiri finds out, she won't just ask him to pay the difference...

Kogoro Mori felt sad and thought pessimistically.

However, his thoughts were actually unnecessary, because there was a real lady from a consortium sitting in the back seat. No matter what, the ticket price was not something Kogoro Mouri should worry about.

"Xiaolan, why is the ticket for the performance of 'Josephine' specifically marked with the symbol 'Jewel of Destiny'?"

Suzuki Sonoko raised the physical ticket in her hand with some confusion.

I saw that apart from the ticket checking receipt, most of the physical tickets contained a brief introduction to the story of "Josephine". In addition, there was an introduction to the theater troupe. In order to prevent others from noticing the gem of destiny, they specially marked it in large and bold colors.

"As for the Gem of Destiny, it's that Sapphire Star, right? I've seen it, it's nothing big."

"Could it be that the crew is planning to use the Sapphire Star as a gimmick to trick others into coming to see the show? Isn't that a bit too unsure? A truly outstanding performance doesn't need these things as gimmicks, just like Kidd-sama..."

The second daughter of the Suzuki family expressed her feelings without saying a word at this time.

Ran Mouri next to her was not surprised by her best friend's behavior. She just smiled and chatted with Suzuki Sonoko about this matter. Only the Death God Elementary School Student looked out the window boredly, complaining in his heart.

Really, Kaito Kid is just a thief, why is he so popular?

When he was still the famous detective Kudo Shinichi, he didn't seem as popular as Kaito Kid, right?

The vehicle sped towards the theater.

Behind Kogoro Mouri's car, Dr. Agasa, who was driving a rather conspicuous armored car, was paying attention to the road conditions and chatting with Haibara Ai who was sitting in the passenger seat next to him. It was not until Haibara Ai suddenly stopped talking that he noticed that they were almost at the theater.

The three members of the Junior Detective Team in the back seat were already looking forward to the upcoming drama performance.

The former Black Organization scientist turned his head to look at the trio behind him, secretly sighing at their carelessness. The last time they were kidnapped and in danger was only a week ago, but now they can play around without any scruples as if nothing happened.

Maybe this is the advantage of being a child? She was scared by the Black Organization before, and now she is afraid when she encounters the Black Organization...

Snap————

The car door opened and closed, and the car was parked accurately in the parking lot.

Kogoro Mouri walked towards the ticket gate with a large group of people, feeling a little guilty. When the ticket inspector asked him questions, he coughed twice, then took out his business card and revealed his true identity as a famous detective.

"Ahem, I'm the famous detective Maori Kogoro. I agreed with Ms. Makiri yesterday that I would come over to investigate today."

"investigation……?"

The ticket inspector glanced at the children behind him and felt a little nervous, but he nodded politely and called to confirm the situation.

At this time, Suzuki Sonoko directly pulled Mao Li Ran through the ticket gate with physical tickets, saving waiting time, and moved happily towards the snack store inside.

When they came back from buying snacks, Mu Shuli's assistant arrived at the door and led them to the dressing room.

However, on the way to the dressing room, Conan's eyes showed a hint of doubt.

Because, he saw someone inside the theater who seemed not to be there——

That was the famous high school detective Hakuba Tantei whom Hattori Heiji had once mentioned to him.

The Elementary School Student Death God couldn't really remember the names of the famous detectives he had never met, except for himself.

But Hakuba Tsutomu is an exception, because Hakuba Tsutomu's presence in Beika Town seems to be a bit too high recently. During the week when Uncle Mori was traveling, he almost completely took over Uncle Mori's fame.

Even yesterday's news headlines reported on the White Horse detective solving a murder case.

"[The Second Sherlock Holmes of the Heisei Era]..."

Conan muttered quietly to himself the title given to Hakuba Tan in the newspaper headlines.

The title given to him was the Sherlock Holmes of the Heisei era, and now Hakuba Detective also uses this title. Although the label "Second" is added in front of it, it is enough to make him impressed by this Hakuba Detective whom he has never really met.

But Hakuba Tan didn't notice Conan's gaze.

He stood next to Ginzo Nakamori, holding the blueprints, and instructed the police officer to check the previously installed equipment again.

It was not until Conan was called by Mouri Ran and quickened his pace to catch up with her that he noticed the familiar name and finally noticed Conan's presence inside the theater.

Ginzo Nakamori was feeling a little sleepy due to Hakuba Tan's repeated requests and couldn't help yawning.

After noticing where Bai Ma Tan was looking, he also looked over there. Then, his eyes widened, because there appeared an unusually troublesome guy there——

The famous detective known as "Sleeping Kogoro", Mouri Kogoro!

The plan to capture Kaito Kid failed last time, and Kogoro Mouri was at least 50% to blame! This guy actually showed up at the scene of the theft of the Kaito Kid trailer again. Is he deliberately trying to boost his strength?!

"Inspector Nakamori, how about we go over and take a look?"

Bai Ma Tan asked softly.

Hearing this, Nakamori Ginzo immediately became energetic. Without saying anything, he rolled up his sleeves and spoke directly.

"I understand. Come on, doesn't he like to sleep? I'll help him [sleep] for a while!"

You seem a bit irritable.

Hakuba Tan shook his head slightly, but still followed Nakamori Ginzo towards the dressing room.

And after Hakuba Tan and Nakamori Ginzo left the hall.

Günter von Goldberg II, disguised as a staff member, also appeared in the lobby.

The famous illusionist Spider moved calmly towards the stage theater where "Josephine" was to be performed.

In order to set up a perfect illusion, one must have a perfect illusion device, which requires preparation time. Now, he has just the preparation time to perfect the illusion he is going to perform next.

The world's number one illusionist chuckled.

"Kaito Kidd, let's see if any monsters will come to save you this time!"

Chapter 280 The sudden appearance of the famous detective (2/5)

Papapapapa————

Foundation was patted on the face continuously.

As a star actress, Makuri naturally knows how to maintain her appearance. However, she did not do it herself, but handed it all over to her exclusive makeup artist, Natsuki Sakai.

Well, if you have already hired a skilled makeup artist, and you still do your own makeup, wouldn’t that be a waste of money?

Natsuki Sakai quietly gave Makiri the final make-up. After everything was done, she turned and walked to another part of the dressing table and began to pack up the many cosmetics that would be used for this performance.

crunch.

The door of the dressing room was pushed open directly. This abrupt and impolite behavior immediately made Mu Shuli frown.

If the person who came was just an ordinary staff member, she would definitely get angry. Even if it was Isao Shinkura or her assistant, she would have criticized them. But the person who came was Kogoro Mouri.

The energy in Mu Shu disappeared in an instant.

Because other people depend on her for their livelihood, and Kogoro Mouri was hired by her, she knows who she should show disapproval to and who she shouldn't, as an actress who is doing well in this industry.

"Eh? Are you guys...are you still putting on makeup? Excuse me, I'll come in later?"

Maori Kogoro placed his hand on the door handle and pushed the door of the dressing room open most of the way, but not completely. Looking at the situation inside, an awkward smile appeared on his face.

Although he doesn't know much about this, based on the information he got from chatting with his idol Yoko Nakano.

Whether they are stars or actors, if they are disturbed while putting on makeup, it will greatly affect their subsequent performance. Such impolite behavior is likely to make them angry.

However, Maki Shuli shook his head slightly and spoke directly.

"Please come in, Detective Maori, and your assistants."

After getting permission, Kogoro Mouri breathed a sigh of relief and pushed the door open.

The five members of the Junior Detective League also entered the dressing room, surprising Fumijiro Narisawa, who was also in the dressing room and would play Napoleon Bonaparte in the performance of "Josephine".

Is such a young child also the assistant of the great detective Maori Kogoro? Does this count as child labor?

"Haha, sorry, I accidentally brought a few extra people..."

Kogoro Mouri felt a little embarrassed and wanted to explain to Makuri, but the wealthy Makuri didn't care at all. She once again showed the sapphire star on her finger and then said.

"Detective Maori, none of that matters. What matters is that the Sapphire Star cannot be stolen by Kaito Kid."

"I believe that the famous detective Maori Kogoro will have no problem dealing with Kaito Kid. This time, the protection of the Sapphire Star will be handed over to you, Mr. Maori!"

Makiri's flattery immediately made Kogoro Maori feel elated, and he boasted loudly.

"Of course, I'm the famous detective Maori Kogoro! Leave this to me, it's absolutely no problem!"

However, the members of the Junior Detective League are not interested in the boring flattery game among adults.

Ayumi, Mitsuhiko, and Genta were all lying on the dressing table, looking at the extremely beautiful cosmetics that had not been covered yet. They were about to reach out and take some to play with, but were stopped directly by Natsuki Sakai.

The professional makeup artist warned with a smile as she closed the makeup box.

"You're not old enough to play with makeup yet? Kids should act like kids!"
