Science: The Little Shota of the Maori Family

243. Xiaolan: Sonoko, do you like junior high school students?

Seeing Mrs. Yoshida hesitate, Watanabe Toru deliberately said, "Auntie, are you reluctant to show it to me?"

"No, it's not...it's just..." Mrs. Yoshida didn't know how to explain.

Watanabe Toru sighed slightly: "Forget it, I'd better not force Auntie."

Seeing Watanabe Toru's disappointed look, Mrs. Yoshida finally softened her heart and said, "Okay, since Xiao Toru wants to see it, then Auntie will get it for you..."

Anyway, Xiao Che didn't know the real purpose of this thing, so it wouldn't matter if I showed it to him. She thought to herself.

Mrs. Yoshida got out of bed, opened the drawer of the wardrobe, took down the clothes inside, and then took out the so-called "tools".

Good guy, he hid so well, are you afraid that Ayumi will find him?

Mrs. Yoshida handed the item to Watanabe Toru with an awkward expression: "Here, this is it."

Watanabe Toru held it in his hand, feeling the texture of it, and wondered how many times Mrs. Yoshida had used it.

"Auntie, lie down and I'll give you a massage."

"No... no need."

"Come on, come on."

At Watanabe Toru's insistence, Mrs. Yoshida lay down reluctantly.

The cold touch passed through his burning body, and as it brushed past his great shore, he suddenly heard Watanabe Toru's surprised voice: "Huh? There's a switch here."

Don't……

Before Mrs. Yoshida could finish her words, her body suddenly trembled.

……

October 28th, Friday, evening.

Maori family.

"Huh? Uncle was actually invited to attend a meeting at the Metropolitan Police Department?" Watanabe Toru looked at Xiaolan, somewhat incredulous: "Is this true, Xiaolan?"

Xiaolan nodded. "I heard from Sonoko that Kaito Kidd has sent out another warning letter, targeting their Egg of Memory. I heard it's a secret treasure of the Tsar."

Egg of memories? Scorching?

A beautiful face appeared in Watanabe Toru's mind.

This woman appears to be a researcher on the Russian Romanov dynasty, but is actually a killer. Toru Watanabe has always wanted to contact her.

Now, the opportunity has finally come.

It was not until seven o'clock in the evening that Kogoro Mouri returned home.

Watanabe Toru asked him about the situation: "Uncle, have you cracked the code of the warning letter sent by Kidd?"

(bhcj)

Maori Kogoro was full of confidence. "Of course. According to my discussions with the police, we all agree that Kaito Kidd will appear at the Osaka Castle Tower between tomorrow evening and the next morning to seize the Egg of Memories."

"Really? You're worthy of being my uncle. You cracked the code so quickly." Toru Watanabe flattered Kogoro Mori.

Maori Kogoro laughed: "This time, we will definitely catch the thief Kaito Kid."

……

The next day.

Watanabe Toru and his group arrived in Osaka by Shinkansen. Sonoko was already waiting for them at the exit. When she saw them coming out, she waved her arms and shouted loudly: "Ran, Toru, over here."

"Sorry, Yuanzi, we asked you to pick us up." Xiaolan walked over and said to her best friend embarrassedly.

"What are you talking about? You're the guests now." Yuanzi said carelessly, "The car is waiting outside, let's go."

Seeing the car sent to pick them up, Maori Kogoro sighed: "A luxury car, worthy of being from the Suzuki Group."

Yuanzi smiled and said, "You are honored guests after all. When entertaining honored guests, we should be more solemn. Oh, I forgot to introduce you."

Sonoko pointed at the driver and said, "This is my father's secretary, Mr. Masato Nishino. He has lived in many countries around the world, so he is fluent in English, French, and German."

"Huh? That's amazing." Xiaolan exclaimed.

As they were talking, the business car drove up to the Suzuki Museum of Modern Art.

At this time, this place has been surrounded by Osaka police. There is a policeman standing guard almost every five to ten meters from the outside to the inside, and the sky is filled with the roar of helicopters.

Maori Kogoro saw this scene and couldn't help but sigh: "The security is so tight, in my opinion, not even an ant can escape."

"Of course." Sonoko said with a smile, "After all, our opponent is Kaito Kidd. With the lesson from last time, Dad has put a lot of effort into security this time."

"That guy is a Gentleman Thief who can transform freely. He can miraculously break through even the most stringent security. He can even mimic the appearance and voice of others. He can be said to be a master of disguise."

The familiar voice attracted the attention of several people. Looking back, they saw Hattori Heiji driving a motorcycle with Toyama Kazuha coming to the art museum.

"Hattori? Kazuha?" Ran showed a surprised expression when she saw the two of them: "Why are you here?"

Hattori Heiji glanced at Watanabe Toru and his group and said with some disappointment, "I thought Kudo would come too, but it looks like I won't be able to see him this time."

Sonoko whispered in Ran's ear, "Ran, is he the high school detective Hattori Heiji? Besides being a little darker, he's quite handsome."

Xiaolan misunderstood what Sonoko meant and quickly reminded her, "No, Sonoko, Hattori Heiji and Kazuha are childhood sweethearts who grew up together. Although they often bicker, they have a very good relationship."

Yuanzi smiled and said, "Don't worry, I don't mean that. Besides, I prefer boys younger than me now."

"Huh?" Xiaolan was stunned, with a strange expression: "But Yuanzi, the boy who is younger than you should still be in junior high school, right? You..."

Can you do it?

Xiaolan was too embarrassed to say this.

Junior high school student? Sonoko gave a vague smile and glanced at Watanabe Toru.

Xiaolan, if you knew what I was thinking, you would be surprised.

Led by Suzuki Sonoko, the group walked towards the president's office.

……

Quite a few people were already sitting in the living room of the president's office. Seeing Sonoko leading the group in, Suzuki Shiro greeted them warmly: "Oh, it's Mr. Mori! Thank you for coming all the way from Tokyo. Thank you so much."

"President Suzuki." Kogoro Mori shook hands respectfully with Shiro Suzuki.

Suzuki Shiro looked at Watanabe Toru and Xiaolan in the back and smiled: "Xiao Toru and Xiaolan are here too."

PS: The previous chapter is still under review in the black room. I will change the title after revising the content. I am tired now, so I will destroy it.

244. Toys worth 800 million yen

"Hello, Uncle Suzuki." Toru Watanabe and Xiaolan greeted Shiro Suzuki.

Sonoko then introduced Hattori Heiji and Toyama Kazuha. Suzuki Shiro did not show any airs as a group president. After praising Hattori Heiji, he introduced the other people present.

First Secretary of the Russian Embassy, ​​Siluofu-Chitnikov.

The art dealer invited by Suzuki Shiro, Qian Masakazu.

Romanov dynasty researcher, Pu Siqinglan.

"Hello." Pu Siqinglan spoke in Chinese.

Watanabe Toru glanced at Pu Siqinglan. She was wearing a formal purple suit, her hair was neatly but gently tied behind her ears, and her expression was full of gentleness and tranquility. Who would have thought that such a woman was the famous killer Shi Kaobing.

Finally, there is Ryu Kamikawa, a freelance video writer who applied to come and film the treasure.

Obviously, these people were interested in the "Egg of Memories." When he heard that Qian Jiangyi was willing to pay 800 million yen for the "Egg of Memories," Maori Kogoro's face changed.

……

After they left, Suzuki Shiro's secretary, Masato Nishino, came in holding a wooden box and said to Suzuki Shiro, "President, I brought the egg over."

"Okay, thank you for your help." Suzuki Shiro nodded: "Just put it on the table."

Xiaolan stared at the unopened box, her eyes full of curiosity and interest: "Can we see the egg?"

"Of course you can. Actually, it doesn't look that great on the outside." Sonoko said with a smile, "I used to play with it as a toy when I was a kid."

The garden language explains what Versailles means. A toy worth 800 million yen? Ordinary people wouldn't even dream of doing that.

When Shiro Suzuki opened the green egg, the golden statues of the king and his family inside came to life, shimmering in the air.

“This is incredible…”

"It's simply too beautiful to be true."

"..."

The crowd watching exclaimed in amazement.

Suzuki Shiro used the key to unlock the egg, took out a book, opened it, and placed it on the table. "There's a record of this egg in the imperial documents. Look... it's translated as the Egg of Memories."

"It will be called the Egg of Memory..." Xiaolan asked, "Is it translated from Russian into English?"

"Yes." Suzuki Shiro said, "Translated into Japanese, it means memories."

"Um...is that sparkling thing in the egg a gem?" Xiaolan asked again.

Suzuki Shiro shook his head: "No, no, no, it's just glass."

"Huh?" Xiaolan looked puzzled. "Isn't this a gift from the Emperor to the Empress? Wouldn't it be strange if it had glass embedded in it?"

Suzuki Shiro thought for a moment. "It is said that when the 51st egg was being made, Russia was in financial trouble."

"Even stranger than this is Kidd's warning letter." Hattori Heiji suddenly interrupted, stroking his chin: "The glowing sky loft... Why does Osaka Castle glow?"

"Idiot!" Toyama Kazuha seized the opportunity to mock Hattori Heiji: "Mr. Taiko, who built Osaka Castle, believed that Osaka's development would be like the Osaka Light. Don't you understand that?"

"Yes."

A strong voice came from the door of the president's office, and Chaki Shintaro and Nakamori Ginzo were walking towards them.

As they walked, Chaki Shintaro said, "It's absolutely true that Kaito Kid will appear in the Osaka Castle tower. However, we still haven't figured out the phrase 'a clock without a second hand reaches the twelfth number'."

Yuanshan Heye thought for a moment and guessed, "Could it be the twelfth character in the Japanese 50-character syllable?"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone present seemed to suddenly understand and began to count on their fingers.

"Yeah, is that four o'clock?"

Nakamori Ginzo shook his head and said in a deep voice: "Kid's code is not that simple."

Maori Kogoro suddenly showed an expression that said "I've seen through everything" and raised the corner of his mouth. "No, it's not the Japanese 50-kana, but the English alphabet. The second letter of the English alphabet is L, which means three dots."

Suzuki Shiro looked at Maori Kogoro in amazement: "As expected of a famous detective, he is truly amazing."

Kogoro Mouri stuck out his tongue and laughed triumphantly.

Chaki Shintaro also agreed with Maori Kogoro's opinion: "That's right, three in the morning is still before dawn, which is consistent with the "Dawn Girl". We must make corresponding preparations immediately. This time, we must catch that guy Kidd."

……

The rest of the matter was left to the police, while Toru Watanabe and others went to the nearby Namba Hotei Shrine.

· ········Request flowers·· ·········

At the shrine's lottery area, three girls and Watanabe Toru gathered together, while Hattori Heiji stood alone aside, stroking his chin, thinking about something.

"Hey, I won the lucky number." Yuanzi said suddenly, joy blooming on her bright and generous face.

"Really?" Xiaolan and Toyama Kazuha came over.

"Waiting lovers, may all your wishes come true." Xiaolan read the fortune and said with a smile: "Yuanzi, you asked for a love fortune, right? Congratulations."

Yuanshan and Ye said, "I heard that the fortune telling here is very accurate, Sonoko, your love is coming soon."

"Really?" Sonoko happily collected the lottery ticket, glanced at Watanabe Toru who was looking up at her, and asked, "Tetsu, what lottery ticket did you draw?"

..... .... ...

"I'm lucky too." Watanabe Toru said. He was too lazy to draw lots, but couldn't resist the persuasion of several sisters, so he drew a lot reluctantly.

"Purple Qi comes from the east, and all your dreams will come true." Yuanzi read the words on the fortune stick: "Xiao Che, you are praying for academic success, right?"

"Uh-huh."

Watanabe Toru nodded and thought to himself, No, what I want is love.
