Conan: Ran, I really am Shinichi, you have to believe me!

"That's all. Once we inherit the family legacy, all we need to do is sing 'Twinkle Twinkle Little Star' to the moon."

Hearing Jiang Chengbei's words, Kuroba Kaito had a bad feeling and said with an unfriendly expression, "What if he didn't get the family inheritance?"

"Then you definitely can't cultivate. Singing Twinkle Twinkle Little Star to the moon is useless."

Hearing Jiang Chengbei say this, Kaito Kuroba's bad premonition grew even stronger:

"Are there any restrictions on this inheritance? Are there any requirements regarding a person's talent? Do you think I have any talent? My father didn't pass it on to me. Could you pass it on to me in place of my father?"

Facing the expectant look on Kaito Kuroba's face, Jiang Chengbei shrugged regretfully:

"No, it can only be passed down from father to son, and it's a one-way transfer. After the father passes it on to the son, the son can absorb chakra by singing 'Twinkle Twinkle Little Star' to the moon, but the father loses this ability."

"What? You mean my dad can't cultivate chakra anymore even if he sings 'Twinkle Twinkle Little Star' to the moon?"

"If he passed on his ability to sing Twinkle Twinkle Little Star to the moon to Conan, then Conan would no longer be able to sense the power of chakra, nor would he be able to cultivate and use the ability of chakra."

At most, he would look at the gemstones under the moon and absorb tiny amounts of chakra energy—energy he himself couldn't even feel—through the principle of free diffusion to improve his body.

"Is it really only possible to pass it on to one child? And will I lose this ability after passing it on?"

"Yes."

After receiving Jiang Chengbei's affirmative answer, Kuroba Kaito jumped up in a fit of rage:

"Baka! Bastard! I am the eldest son! I am the legitimate son! I am the first child! Baka, baka..."

Seeing the furious Kuroba Kaito, Jiang Chengbei sat down on the sofa and watched the show.

After Kuroba Kaito vented his frustrations, Jiang Chengbei comforted him and coaxed him into learning how to change his voice from Kuroba Kaito. He then improved his chakra voice-changing ability, resulting in a significant improvement.

After learning from Kaito Kuroba's experience piloting the hang glider, Jiang Chengbei was able to defy the laws of physics and glide freely in the sky using the hang glider he conjured with chakra.

By learning the principles behind Kaito Kuroba's creation of tear gas, tranquilizer gas, flashbangs, and other gadgets, Jiang Chengbei was able to perfectly replicate the gas bombs used by Kaito Kid using Conan's chakra.

Then, the most incredible thing happened. After learning about the materials and process by which Kuroba Kaito created his Stand puppet, Jiang Chengbei's Stand puppet, which he created using chakra, could actually move and perform simple actions. However, maintaining its existence was quite taxing for him when he performed the actions.

Upon seeing Jiang Chengbei split into an identical clone, only this one was a bit dim-witted, incapable of thinking, and only capable of following orders, Kuroba Kaito became completely withdrawn.

After that, Kaito Kuroba ignored Jiang Chengbei completely, muttering resentfully to himself the whole time:

"I'm the eldest son, I'm the firstborn son of the original wife, why can't I cultivate chakra! Why..."

Seeing that Kaito Kuroba was showing signs of being possessed, Jiang Chengbei quickly bought a fish from the system shop and threw it at Kaito Kuroba, which finally brought him out of his daze.

After being awakened by Jiang Chengbei, Kuroba Kaito hugged Jiang Chengbei and burst into tears:

"Brother, why did Dad have two sons? Why wasn't I the one who inherited the chakra...?"

After crying for a while, Kaito Kuroba finally accepted reality, and then his curiosity resurfaced:

"Brother, besides the new chakra abilities you just developed with my inspiration, what else could you originally do?"

"Would you like me to demonstrate for you?"

"Perform a show, I want to see."

"it is good."

Having learned so many new chakra abilities from Phantom Thief Kid, Jiang Chengbei will certainly grant his small wish to see a performance.

So Jiang Chengbei demonstrated to him one after another the chakra soccer ball, chakra skateboard, chakra sunglasses, chakra anesthetic needles, and so on.

However, these things were nothing compared to Jiang Chengbei's chakra clones, and Kuroba Kaito wasn't very interested in them.

So Jiang Chengbei had no choice but to secretly use his skills to fake chakra abilities. He used the Mist Tengu Wall-Breaking Palm to chisel several large holes in the wall of Kuroba Kaito's house, and then instantly hung Kuroba Kaito upside down on the roof to satisfy his curiosity.

Chapter 182 Conan felt like the sky had fallen: the news said his parents were divorced, and Yusaku Kudo had died in a car accident.

After learning that his brother might be Kaito Kuroba, Conan was about to start investigating him when he saw a big news story on TV, which made him lose all interest in doing anything else.

Especially when Conan was dumbfounded, Jiang Chengbei came over and patted his big head:

"Congratulations, Conan! Your dad and his first wife have divorced, and your mom has a chance to take over. Now you'll have a complete family."

It turns out that the news that Yusaku Kudo and Yukiko Kudo had secretly divorced a few days earlier was being broadcast on TV, and now it had been exposed by an unknown paparazzi.

It turns out that a dozen days ago, after finding clues about the mistress, Yukiko went to the United States and then met with Yusaku Kudo in person.

After several attempts to arrange a meeting, and several times being stood up by Yusaku Kudo, Yukiko, her patience exhausted, finally met with Yusaku.

However, when she saw his injured arm, which was bandaged and slinged around his neck, Yukiko was stunned. She stared at him for a long time, thinking for a long time. Torn between her anger towards the mistress and her long-standing feelings for Yusaku Kudo, and her desire to know the reason for his injury, Yukiko finally asked, "Is it Sharon?"

Seeing Yukiko staring at his injured arm and suddenly asking the question he was most worried about, Yusaku Kudo's expression changed drastically, and he subconsciously asked in return, "How did you know?"

"It really was her!" Yukiko gave a bitter laugh, then angrily questioned, "Why her?"

"I don't know either, but the situation is too complicated and too dangerous. It's better for you not to know. Yukiko, it's too dangerous for you to stay in the United States. Why don't you go back to Japan and hide for a while?"

Seeing Yusaku Kudo's anxious expression, Yukiko scoffed, "Are you afraid I'll go to her?"

"Yukiko, now that you know, don't be silly. The situation is so dangerous, why are you going to see her?"

We've been married for almost 20 years, and Xin Yi is 17 now. Things are different now; it's not the peaceful life we ​​used to have. You can't act like a little kid anymore, being willful and playful, running away from home at the drop of a hat. It's time for you to grow up!

"Yes, she is a mysterious high-ranking leader of a terrorist organization. Going to her would be suicide for me, but Kudo Yusaku, you have disappointed me greatly!"

Looking at the angry Yukiko, Yusaku Kudo sighed helplessly:

"A scholar is useless. After encountering this situation, I realized that my shooting skills and fancy martial arts are no match for a true master. I have no ability to defend myself."

Yukiko, take my advice, don't go looking for Sharon. The further away you are from her, the better. Even if you used to be her best friend, she won't let you off the hook because of your years of friendship.

"Best friend? I'm the only one foolish enough to consider her my best friend. She's probably laughing at me behind my back!"

Now that her true colors have been exposed, if I go to find her again, wouldn't I be courting death?

Don't worry, I want to live a few more years; I won't go looking for her.

Seeing that Yukiko didn't act impulsively this time, Yusaku Kudo was finally relieved.

"Yukiko, I'm glad you understand. I'm relieved that you're safe and sound and not throwing a tantrum like a child."

"Yusaku Kudo, stop pretending to care about me. I don't need it."

And you can rest assured about one thing: not only will I not go looking for Sharon, I will also keep my distance from you, who has connections with Sharon.

"Yusaku Kudo, let's get a divorce. Let's never see each other again."

Upon hearing Yukiko's decisive statement about divorce, Yusaku Kudo was initially stunned. After pondering for a while, he nodded seriously.

"Alright, it's fine if we separate for now. Let's remarry after I find out the reason and resolve this matter."

You'd better change your appearance first, find a place to hide, and wait for me to take care of things.

If you hear bad news about me later, don't be sad. Believe me, I won't die until I've dealt with them!

Yukiko gritted her teeth after hearing what Yusaku Kudo said:

"Unfortunate news? Even if the worst news comes, I'll just pretend you're dead. That way, the bad news won't affect me, right?"

"Let's go, let's get a divorce."

And so, Yusaku Kudo and Yukiko secretly returned to Japan and got a divorce.

After the divorce, Yukiko stayed in Japan, while Yusaku Kudo secretly returned to the United States.

Then, just a few days later, news broke in the American entertainment industry that Kudo Yu had been having affairs for years, had several children outside of marriage, and that his relationship with his wife had long since broken down and they were now divorced, among other negative news.

Just when everyone was skeptical that it was true, a scene appeared on TV that followed the same pattern as Conan's confession video: a drunken Yusaku Kudo personally admitted to the negative news that had been circulating.

Then, just as Conan was shocked to discover that his father was indeed a scumbag who had been cheating on his wife for over a decade and had hidden it flawlessly, something happened that brought the whole incident to a close:

According to reliable sources, Yusaku Kudo, who was in a bad mood and drunk late at night, had a car accident on Highway 1 in Big Sur, California. He drove off a cliff and plunged into the Pacific Ocean, where his body was never recovered.

Of course, that's what the news reports say, but according to the FBI's investigation files, Yusaku Kudo was attacked, killed, and then pushed into the sea along with his car. In the end, his body was never found.

However, under pressure from various parties, the case was eventually closed as a drunk driving accident, citing the desire to avoid making a big fuss.

While Conan was heartbroken after seeing the news report about Yusaku Kudo's death, Yukiko, who had stayed behind in Japan to hide, instantly understood what Yusaku Kudo had said before his divorce. She then threw a coffee cup and said indignantly:

"To be with that terrorist, you even gave up being a world-renowned novelist and went so far as to fake your death and become a rat that can't see the light of day!"

"Great, very good!"

On the other side, Gin, leaning on his cane after dealing with Yusaku Kudo in the United States, finally revealed a sinister smile:

"Shinichi Kudo, this is my way of repaying you for letting me go last time. What I'm going to teach you is:"

Mercy towards enemies is cruelty towards loved ones.

I hope you learn from this experience. Next time we meet, it will be a matter of life and death.

Vermouth was also a little surprised to see Gin's ferocious appearance.

The reason she helped Gin in the less-than-successful assassination attempt on Yusaku Kudo was because she wanted to hear about how Gin was severely injured and almost died.

Gin and Vodka have kept their injuries a secret. No one knows who ambushed them, why they were so badly injured, or how they managed to escape with their lives despite such severe injuries.

Unfortunately, Gin and Vodka refused to say anything, only instructing their American counterparts to assassinate Yusaku Kudo.

Even after several failed assassination attempts, Gin refused to give up. He continued to search for people and resources to assassinate Yusaku Kudo, exchanging a considerable amount of resources for this purpose.

After all, Yusaku Kudo is the biological father of Vermouth's beloved son, Shinichi Kudo, so Vermouth is very curious about why Gin has always wanted to kill Yusaku Kudo.

So, under the pretext of asking who had seriously injured him that day, she subtly inquired about why Gin wanted to kill Yusaku Kudo.

When confronted by Vermouth, Gin discovered that sending his underlings to kill the highly intelligent Yusaku Kudo had repeatedly failed, as Kudo had managed to escape.

So he made a deal with Vermouth: if she killed Yusaku Kudo, he would tell her everything that happened on the day he was injured.

Bourbon had basically figured out why Gin was so badly injured that day: he was ambushed by a tank. The only things that weren't clear were who ambushed Gin and why Gin managed to survive at the last moment.

Since everyone knows that he was seriously injured by a tank ambush, and since he and Vodka are both made of flesh and blood, there is nothing shameful about being beaten up by a tank like this, Gin decides to make use of his injuries by exchanging the news of his injury for Vermouth's help in assassinating Yusaku Kudo.

As for Sister Bei, she's a master of slacking off. No matter what task comes her way, she can slack off beautifully and make it look like no one can tell she's slacking off. They'll just think she tried her best, but her teammates weren't up to par and dragged her down, which is why things failed.

So, in order to find out who attacked Gin, why he was so badly injured, and how he managed to escape with his life, Vermouth agreed to help, which led to the scene where she went to assassinate Yusaku Kudo.

Perhaps he had been slacking off for too long during the assassination attempt, and his skills had become a bit rusty, or perhaps Yusaku Kudo was simply too clever.

So despite her disguise and all her skills, and without slacking off this time, the assassination attempt ultimately failed, only managing to injure Kudo Yusaku's arm.

To make matters worse, he discovered that the person who assassinated him was Sharon Vineyard, Yukiko's best friend.

So, when Yukiko came to the United States to find him, after experiencing multiple assassination attempts and discovering that a huge organization was targeting him, but only him and not Yukiko, Yusaku Kudo finally found an opportunity to meet with Yukiko.
