Conan Rick's Investigator

I really became a substitute!

It is not easy for normal people to accept the fact that an adult turns into a child. I should have thought of this earlier!

"I'm really Shinichi!"

"I'm Shinichi! I'm Shinichi! I'm Shinichi!"

Conan's shout x3 made Ran Mouri even angrier.

"Conan! Stop pretending to be Shinichi!"

"I won't be fooled!"

There was no other way, Conan could only bring up the story of his first meeting with Ran Mouri to prove that he was Shinichi Kudo.

This trick is very effective in revealing the secrets between two people. I used this trick to identify Dr. Agasa when I first met him after I became smaller.

"Xiaolan, do you remember the first time we met?"

"First meeting?" Mao Lilan asked in confusion.

Conan sang at the speed of light: "The first time we met was in Mika Kindergarten. You were crying in your quilt while making origami. The origami you made was the kindergarten's Sakura nameplate."

"I told you that you were a crybaby, and asked you to pick a cherry blossom for me too."

"do you remember?"

Conan looked serious and brought Ran Mouri into distant memories.

That day, because Kogoro Mouri was in a hurry when he went to work, he stepped on the Sakura nameplate of his kindergarten and broke it.

Then, Kisaki Eri folded one for herself out of colored paper...

Afterwards, during lunch break at the kindergarten, I met Shinichi for the first time.

But this kind of thing should only be known by Shinichi!

Is it...

Looking at the sudden expression on Mouri Ran's face, Conan knew that Mouri Ran also remembered that old event.

Do you remember now, Xiaolan?

I am Kudo Shinichi.

However, the next second, Ran Mouri said something that surprised Conan.

"Shinichi, why does he tell you everything?"

"You actually called me a crybaby! He's clearly a jerk who lost his name tag himself!"

Conan almost vomited blood because of Mao Lilan's slowness.

It seems that there is no way to explain it myself, so I can only take Xiaolan to Dr. Agasa's house and let Dr. Agasa explain it clearly.

Just as Conan was thinking this, Mao Lilan suddenly stared blankly at the door.

"Shinichi..."

Conan looked back and saw a replica of himself leaning against the door frame.

Chapter 236 Isn’t this a coincidence?

The rain kept falling outside the window, and the atmosphere inside was not very harmonious.

"Is it really Shinichi?"

Ran Mouri widened her eyes and looked at "Kudo Shinichi" at the door in disbelief.

Conan, who was standing next to him, also looked at the "Kudo Shinichi" behind him in surprise. Although his expression and appearance were similar to Kudo Shinichi, he was definitely not Kudo Shinichi.

Because I am Kudo Shinichi!

Seeing the shiny hair gel on the head of this "Kudo Shinichi", Conan frowned and understood the truth.

This is Kaito Kidd pretending to be himself!

At this moment, Kuroba Kaito was wearing his original leather, and said with a naturally arrogant expression, "Why are you asking me that?"

"I heard you were involved in a case, so I came to see you. You're so indifferent..."

"But..." Mao Lilan hesitated for a moment, but still said what she was thinking, "But aren't you Kaito Kidd?"

Kuroba Kaito: Indeed...

"Huh?" Kuroba Kaito asked, blowing his nose and glaring, "Why do you miss me so much?"

Mao Lilan ran forward quickly, looked at Kudo Shinichi's face carefully, and asked: "But your voice and your face look like Kaito Kid!"

"As far as I know, you don't have a twin brother, right?"

Kuroba Kaito felt a little embarrassed. He didn't expect that this young lady would misunderstand him and the famous high school detective so deeply.

"How is that possible? Hey!"

"Kaito Kidd is skilled in disguise and voice changing. What you see are all false appearances he creates to sway the people around him. Those faces and voices are not real."

"Besides, I've been working on a big case with Interpol lately and can't get away at all. How can I possibly go around stealing things like Kaito Kidd?"

In order to "repay the favor", Kuroba Kaito can only reveal his own method to resolve the misunderstanding.

"really?"

Ran Mao Li suddenly put her face close to Kuroba Kaito, and asked him a soul-searching question while their eyes met.

"Of course it's true!"

Kuroba Kaito, with a few drops of cold sweat on his forehead, quickly waved his hand and moved to the side.

If he didn't keep some distance from Ran Mouri's body, the little kid with glasses next to him would kill him with his eyes.

After staring at "Kudo Shinichi" in front of her for a few seconds, Mao Lilan also let down her guard.

"All right……"

Mao Lilan seemed to accept Kuroba Kaito's explanation. With a blush on her face, she leaned close to Kuroba Kaito's ear and said, "But why did you even tell Conan about going to kindergarten?"

"Isn't that a secret between just the two of us?"

Kuroba Kaito made the same sound as Dali Ge: "Huh?"

But then, Kuroba Kaito reacted and laughed heartily: "Haha! It was this little brat who pestered me to tell him some things about your childhood, Xiaolan, so I just satisfied the little brat's curiosity a little bit~"

Conan, who was standing aside, looked at Kaito Kid and secretly admired him in his heart: He is indeed a Kaito, and his ability to adapt to changing circumstances is indeed strong.

"Really..."

Xiaolan glanced at Conan behind her with resentment, then turned around and noticed that "Kudo Shinichi"'s shoulders were wet by the rain.

"Wait a moment, I'll go upstairs and get you a towel."

After saying that, Mao Lilan ran upstairs in two steps.

Kuroba Kaito also breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that it was time to retire.

stop--

Kuroba Kaito whistled lightly, and the pigeon on the desk flew to Kuroba Kaito's shoulder as if it heard the call.

Kuroba Kaito walked down the stairs, and Conan followed behind him.

"This time... thanks to you, the misunderstanding was resolved..."

Conan was still a little uncomfortable with thanking a thief.

"Nothing..." Kuroba Kaito smiled slightly and called out another pigeon in his hand, "You saved me in the castle, and this pigeon is my return gift to you."

"So we're even?" Conan asked.

"Yes, it's even."

Kuroba Kaito and Conan were talking from a distance of several meters, and at this time, a Ford UN46 happened to pass by on the street.

The person sitting in the driver's seat of the car was Matsumoto Ryohei, and the person sitting in the passenger seat was Qin Zhibo, who had just finished recording his statement.

In the Metropolitan Police Department, Qin Zhibo originally wanted to leave with the child, but Officer Megure insisted on finding out some things, so Qin Zhibo had to stay a little longer.

After investigation, the police initially determined that the bald man seen by the hook-nosed butler was a thief who sneaked into the castle.

The thief was stealing when he was blocked by people who came to the castle to look for treasure. So he finally took desperate measures and attacked Natsumi Kosaka and ran away.

Pu Siqinglan's identity is the famous international criminal Shi Kaobing, and the murderer behind the whole case is Shi Kaobing.

As for the use of sickles and pistols, it was actually a double tactic used by Scott to evade Interpol's pursuit.

In addition, a charred Walther PPKS was found in the ruins of the castle, which indicated that Pu Siqinglan had abandoned the pistol in the castle during the ignition process, intending to directly dispose of the black gun that had killed people.

The only doubt is, since Natsumi Kosaka has escaped danger, why hasn't she shown up yet?

However, Natsumi Kosaka is not a criminal, so the police cannot issue a wanted warrant for an innocent person. They can only search the mountains around the castle and issue a missing person notice.

If nothing is found, it seems that we can only give up.

On the surface, this case seems to be heading in an extremely mediocre direction.

But in fact, this was all thanks to Qin Zhibo throwing the Walther pistol that Kosaka Natsumi abandoned at the exit of another tunnel into the burning castle.

If this is not done, the police will definitely conclude that the shooter is someone else based on the presence of the pistol in another place where it should not be.

As for why he did this, it was mainly because Qin Zhibo did not want to be suspected by the police.

Because during the time they were trapped underground, everyone except himself, Xia Mei, and the butler acted together.

If the police seriously investigate what happened at the other tunnel exit, he would inevitably be suspected and be caught in a dilemma of choosing one of three options.

Back to the present, Qin Zhibo was boredly looking at the rainy street scene outside the car window, when he suddenly saw a familiar figure across the street.

Judging from the names on their heads, one is Conan and the other is Kuroba Kaito.

Among them, Kuroba Kaito stood in the front and Conan stood in the back. The two seemed to be having a passionate confession or something like that. Even their positions were like the male and female protagonists who were about to separate in a youth idol drama.

Although he didn't know what the two were talking about, he did have something to talk to Kuroba Kaito about.

Isn't this a coincidence? It saves us from further trouble.

"Stop the car, I'll get off here."

Ryohei Matsumoto hesitated for a moment, but without asking any questions, he turned the steering wheel and parked the car on the side of the road.

Qin Zhibo hurriedly got out of the car and just saw Kuroba Kaito performing the "pigeon disappearing technique".

Kaito Kuroba released dozens of pigeons on his body into the sky in one breath. The flying pigeons attracted the attention of Conan and Ran Mouri.

He crouched down and slipped into a blue car parked at the end of the alley in the dark like a dirty thief.

Although Kuroba Kaito's movements were quick enough, Qin Zhibo was able to accurately lock onto his movements thanks to the name appearing above his head, so there was no such thing as "not being able to see him in person".

While the car was still not starting, Qin Zhibo walked up quickly and knocked on the car window.

Chapter 237 Kuroba Kaito is a goody-goody

"Father Terai, everything is done. You can leave now."

In the car, Kuroba Kaito rubbed his hair vigorously with a towel to restore it to its original state.

"okay."

Terai Huang Zhisuke turned the car key and started the car, but suddenly heard a knocking sound on the car window.

Bang, Bang, Bang...

The two people in the car looked outside and saw a large face looking inside through the rain-soaked glass.

"what!"

Kuroba Kaito was startled, but then regained his composure and saw who was knocking on the window outside the car.

Qin Zhibo!

"Why is it him?" Kuroba Kaito's voice was filled with shock and fear.
