Conan Rick's Investigator

"Yes, Harui Fuden is my grandfather, and he is also the 'Ikasama Boy' who communicated with you in the chat room before."

"Because of your conversation in the chat room, Grandpa once again proposed performing an escape magic trick, even though he's just as exhausted as before..."

"But that is..." Kuroda Naoko said in shock.

"That's right, it was Grandpa who killed himself because of his impulsive behavior. I won't take my anger out on you for this."

"But I can't forgive Mr. Nishiyama and Mr. Hamano for their sneering comments towards my grandfather in the chat room after his accidental death."

Escape King (Nishiyama Mu): Being able to die on stage must be what he wants most (laughs).

Disappearing Tiffany (Hamano Toshiya): This is the so-called only hope for an old magician, right? (^^;)

After being exposed, Kikue Tanaka looked relaxed and poured out all the resentment that had been accumulating in her heart during this period.

Everyone looked at Kikue Tanaka in the cold wind with complicated expressions, and they were speechless for a long time.

Only Qin Zhibo walked up to Tanaka Kikue firmly and said seriously: "If I say that Harui Fuden's death was not an accident, but a long-planned assassination..."

"What do you think?"

Chapter 209 Go! Ranmon!

As soon as Qin Zhibo said this, Tanaka Kikue's eyes widened.

She stood there in a daze for a long time, and the biting cold wind blew away the moisture on her face, which brought her back to her senses.

"impossible!"

"The police have already investigated and believe that it was an error in the manufacturing of the magic props that caused Grandpa to..."

Qin Zhibo had expected Tanaka Kikue's attitude. After all, it was impossible to change a person's cognition on such an important matter with just two sentences.

However, Qin Zhibo could not reveal too much about the Nine Angels, especially in front of so many magic enthusiasts around him.

Qin Zhibo approached Tanaka Kikue and said calmly, "Actually, I came here because I was commissioned to secretly investigate the cause of Harui Fuden's death."

"As far as the evidence I have found so far is concerned, it is sufficient to show that Harui Fuden's death was not a simple accident, but a carefully planned assassination."

"Now I need your cooperation in the investigation."

Qin Zhibo's tone had an unquestionable feeling, and when Qin Zhibo stated his purpose, Tanaka Kikue remembered that Qin Zhibo had directly revealed that she was the granddaughter of Harui Fuchuan after he came here.

If I hadn't investigated in advance, how could I know something that all the magic lovers in this chat room didn't know.

Could it be that Grandpa really is...

Tanaka Kikue's eyes widened, and after a few seconds, they were filled with determination again.

She decided to believe Qin Zhibo!

"How can I cooperate with you?" Tanaka Kikue wiped away the tears from her eyes, "As long as we can find out the cause of grandpa's death, I will definitely cooperate with you to the fullest!"

"Ah."

Qin Zhibo nodded in approval of Tanaka Kikue's attitude, then asked seriously, "After Mr. Harui publicly announced his intention to re-enact the escape magic, has anyone approached you or Mr. Harui?"

"This person has most likely entered your home and is very interested in Harui Fuden's escape magic."

Kikue Tanaka's body remained stiff. After thinking for a few seconds, her eyes moved slightly and she suddenly thought of something.

"correct!"

"Indeed, there was someone who came to my house more than a month ago. He was a friend I met by chance."

Qin Zhibo continued to ask: "What's that person's name? What are his characteristics?"

"Her name is Natsume Mika. She's a very beautiful woman with long hair. She should be around my age."

Qin Zhibo looked up and found out that Tanaka Kikue was 28 years old.

"Other than that?"

Kikue Tanaka continued to extract her memories and came up with some more information.

"Her child's hole is the rare gray one..."

"Also, one time while we were having dinner, I thought I saw a ticket in her bag for the Romanov Dynasty exhibition at the Suzuki Museum of Modern Art next week."

"Can you still contact her now?" Qin Zhibo asked.

Tanaka Kikue shook her head. "No, her phone number is no longer in service, and I can't contact her now."

After going through so much trouble to obtain new clues, Qin Zhibo breathed a sigh of relief.

Now that she can't be contacted, it probably means that her goal has been achieved, so there is no need to maintain this fake friendship anymore.

Judging from Tanaka Kikue's description, this person should be a long-haired beauty with a gray face, around 28 years old, and has plans to visit the Romanov Dynasty exhibition at the Suzuki Museum of Modern Art next week.

If this person is really the one who killed Chunjing Fengchuan, judging from this series of careful plans, he is very likely a professional killer.

Speaking of professional killers, Qin Zhibo thought of Tachibana Maya who had disappeared for a long time.

Tachibana Maya is a female assassin, so she should be aware of the other female assassins in this line of work. If this information is provided to her...

However, Tanaka Kikue's description cannot be fully trusted.

It’s not that she would lie, but since the other party is a professional killer, he must know how to disguise himself and conceal his identity.

You can just make up a name, and if you have long hair, you can just wear a wig. If you have a gray boy, you just need to wear a beautiful boy...

The only thing where there was no need to pretend was the admission ticket to the Suzuki Museum of Modern Art that Kikue Tanaka accidentally saw.

Looks like I have to trouble an old acquaintance again...

……

On the balcony, Kuroba Kaito looked at the conversation between Qin Zhibo and Tanaka Kikue on the snow with an anxious look in his eyes.

Although the crossbow as evidence was found in Tanaka Kikue's backpack at Qin Zhibo's instruction, Kuroba Kaito was not happy.

There are two reasons for being unhappy.

one.

He had known for a long time that Harui Fuden was the "Ikasama Douji" in the chat room, and that Tanaka Kikue was a direct descendant of Harui Fuden, but he was unable to stop her from killing people.

It's so embarrassing...

Second.

There is something strange about Harui Fuden's death, which is exactly the same as his father's. This makes Kuroba Kaito eager to solve this mystery.

Qin Zhibo is now talking with Tanaka Kikue, and the content of the conversation may involve the hidden truth, but he cannot fly down to listen immediately.

unhappy……

At this moment, Kuroba Kaito was startled and keenly felt a cold light behind him.

This feeling of being on edge made Kuroba Kaito's agility max out instantly. He used his fat disguise to perform an extremely agile side turn.

whoosh-

A flash of cold light flew past Kuroba Kaito's human skin mask.

Kuroba Kaito calmed himself down and looked at the person who launched the "cold light", the child in blue standing at the door of the room.

"Doi Takeshu is actually just the word spelled backwards."

"Just rearrange the seven hiragana characters and you get Kaito Kid."

I don't know who he was talking to, but Conan reasoned like this, even if he had a cold or a fever, he was determined to deduce.

Kuroba Kaito smiled slightly, waved his hand, and the transformation was completed in an instant.

Swish!

The image of a bloated fat man faded away, and the handsome and charming Moon Thief stood on the balcony railing.

The gorgeous white cloak fluttered in the wind like a unique flag, attracting the attention of others on the snow.

"Ah——" Suzuki Sonoko screamed excitedly when she saw her idol, "Lord Kidd!"

"Kaito Kidd!" The others were also surprised, "How could it be..."

Only Qin Zhibo looked calmly at Kaito Kidd, who was standing on the railing with both feet and showing off his balancing skills.

Kaito Kid and Conan are the same, they are both aliens who will die if they don’t pretend.

……

On the balcony, Conan pretended to be calm on his face, but he was still very anxious inside.

Now Kaito Kidd is right in front of him, but he can't catch him.

Even the watch-shaped anesthetic needle couldn't hit him from behind. This guy is really agile...

But he was wearing slippers now, and without the shoes to enhance his strength, he couldn't kick Kaito Kidd unconscious.

How to do it?

Just then, Ran Mouri's voice came from the corridor behind him.

"Conan!"

"Really? You're running around everywhere when I can't see you anymore..."

When Conan saw Ran Mouri coming, he immediately had an idea in his mind.

"Sister Xiaolan!" Conan pointed at Kaito Kidd on the balcony and shouted urgently, "He is Kaito Kidd! Catch him!"

When she heard the name of Kaito Kid, murderous intent suddenly appeared on Mouri Ran's face, and her pretty eyebrows almost twisted.

The reason why Mao Lilan was angry was the same as the last time in the "Dark Star" incident, when Kaito Kidd knocked her out and disguised himself as her to steal in the venue.

Although Kaito Kidd was still a gentleman and did not see himself naked, this kind of humiliation is intolerable.

"Conan! Get out of the way!"

"Yes!"

Conan slid out of the way and prepared to hand the stage over to Ran Mouri.

Go on!

Xiaolanmon!

Ran Mouri performed a standard energy-gathering movement, then suddenly pushed off the ground with her feet and rushed towards Kaito Kid with unstoppable force.

Its speed was so fast that even the extremely agile Kuroba Kaito was shocked.

This lady...

However, when Mao Lilan rushed to Kaito Kid at an extremely fast speed, the reflection on the monocular lens became much weaker, and a familiar face appeared in the pupil.

new……

Shinichi!

Chapter 210 A Beautiful Transition

"Shinichi?"

"Shinichi? Is that you?"

With the beloved person she had been thinking about standing right in front of her, Mao Lilan's murderous intent instantly disappeared, leaving only disappointment and sadness.

Ran Mouri has deep feelings for herself, and as the real person, Conan should be happy, but Conan can't smile at all at this time.

Hey! I'm Kudo Shinichi!

I'm here!

Conan gritted his teeth and could only shout in his heart, but at this moment, all that was in Ran Mouri's eyes was the "Kudo Shinichi" in front of her.

Kuroba Kaito was also quite surprised at the 180-degree change in attitude of Ran Mouri.

Shinichi?

Which Shinichi?
