Conan: When Shinjiu and Maolilan swap bodies

The candlelight shone through the crystal, casting tiny, distorted spots of light on the ground.

Koizumi Akako lowered her eyes, muttering an inaudible incantation, her red hair moving without wind.

The blue light inside the crystal ball suddenly intensified, and the originally scattered light spots quickly gathered together, gradually outlining a figure wearing a white dress.

The white-clad thief stood on the rooftop, holding a jewel and aiming it at the moon.

The next second, the scene inside the crystal ball suddenly distorted, and several dark chains suddenly emerged from the shadows, instantly wrapping around Kidd's ankles and wrists.

The crimson light covered the blue light of the crystal ball, and a panicked face appeared on the crystal ball as a hat fell off.

Even more alarming, fine cracks began to appear on the edge of the crystal ball, and the light gradually dimmed, as if the white figure would be completely swallowed by the blood-red light in the next second.

Koizumi Akako's fingers trembled, and her face turned deathly pale.

……

Ekota.

Kaito Kuroba frowned as he looked at the person who had appeared at his doorstep.

"The white phantom will be lost in the snowy night, the threads of death have already wrapped around the edge of his top hat... You mustn't go tonight!"

Koizumi Akako spoke with an unusually serious expression.

"What?" Kaito Kuroba understood, but he pretended not to.

He knew that Koizumi Akako was a witch, and he had even witnessed her magic.

The fact that the other party deliberately reminded him at this time indicates that the matter must be very serious and extremely dangerous.

However, the announcement letter from Kaito Kid has already been sent out, and the stage is ready. As the lead actor, how could he not make an appearance?

Besides, this isn't the first time something like this has involved a life-threatening situation.

Now that he had been reminded, he would naturally make thorough preparations.

Seeing that he didn't take it to heart, Koizumi Akako raised her voice:

"This is my divination; if you go there tonight, your life will be in danger!"

"I'm staying home tonight and not going anywhere, how could my life be in danger?"

Although it was guessed that he was Kaito Kid, admitting it was impossible.

Seeing that Hongzi's brows were furrowing more and more tightly, he smiled.

He snapped his fingers, and a blooming rose appeared at his fingertips. He twirled the rose in his hand and presented it to the girl in front of him.

"Beautiful roses belong to the most beautiful ladies. Relax, I'll be fine."

.........

At this moment, Aozawa is sitting in the luxurious courtyard of the Suzuki family home, enjoying exquisite desserts with Sonoko Suzuki.

Miss Suzuki had planned a packed schedule for Ran's free time, but unfortunately Ran's foot injury hadn't fully healed, so all the plans had to be canceled.

However, the thoughtful Sonoko generously invited them to her own residence to enjoy a luxurious afternoon tea for two.

There is no Sera Masumi, no Hondo Eisuke, and no Kyogoku Makoto.

This is a sweet time that belongs only to best friends.

This was also the first time that Aozawa had spent an extended period of time alone with Sonoko Suzuki.

"Hey, how's this brownie?" Sonoko asked, her eyes sparkling as she picked up a piece.

"Delicious!" Qingze exclaimed without looking up, offering the highest praise.

Which store did you buy it from?

"Witch's Cake Shop! It's selling like hotcakes!"

Sonoko immediately started talking non-stop, gesturing wildly.

"This mousse! This tiramisu! They're all from that shop! Let me tell you, the shop is super pretty too, decorated with witchy themes everywhere, mysterious and fun!"

"I originally wanted to go to the store to check it out, but now I can only take it home and eat it at home..."

She stuffed a big bite of cake into her mouth, her cheeks puffed out, her tone full of regret.

"Let's go together once my foot is healed."

"That's a deal! I want to eat my fill! I want to eat until I'm stuffed!"

Sonoko immediately waved her little fork excitedly, as if she could already see the mountain of cake beckoning to her.

"Mmm," Qingze responded softly, focusing on his work with the dessert.

As the plate gradually empties.

A subtle, awkward silence quietly filled the air.

Sonoko Suzuki blinked, looking a little confused.

Before, when I was with Xiaolan, there was a warm and tacit understanding between us even without saying a word, and the air was filled with comfort and ease. But what's with this awkward silence now?

Looking at Ran, who was resting her chin on her hand and looking at her, Sonoko felt that something was wrong, but she couldn't quite put her finger on it.

"what happened?"

Seeing that she suddenly stopped talking, Qingze tilted his head.

The girl's expression was no different from before, but there was a sense of distance between them, unlike their previous intimacy.

Suzuki Sonoko suddenly reached out and touched Aozawa's face.

Qingze instinctively dodged, avoiding her hand.

"what happened?"

Seeing her dodge, Sonoko Suzuki's eyes darkened.

"Xiao Lan, let me pinch your cheek."

A barely perceptible glint flashed in Qingze's eyes.

His performance seemed quite normal and consistent with Ran Mouri's character.

How did I become a suspect?

"Pinch my cheek?" The girl looked helpless and leaned her head forward. "Sonoko, you don't suspect I'm Kid, do you?"

"Hmph, who knows if Qingze will impersonate you! He's impersonated you so many times already."

Sonoko Suzuki leaned closer to her face, pinching and touching it here and there, to make sure that the person in front of her was the real Ran and not someone in disguise.

Qingze rubbed his sore face, hissing as he said in a joking tone:

"Actually, I am Aozawa, and Ran Mouri is an imposter."

Whether it was disappointment or something else, Sonoko snorted and forcefully took Ran's arm to close the distance.

"You promised to spend the whole day with me today!"

"I'm keeping you company, aren't I?" Qingze tried to relax as he looked at the person who was leaning closer.

Playing a role in front of Sonoko Suzuki is even harder than playing one in front of Eri Kisaki.

The thought of having to spend another seven or eight hours with Sonoko Suzuki made Aozawa feel a little hopeless.

He changed the subject, diverting Sonoko Suzuki's attention, "How's it going at the art museum?"

Sonoko Suzuki took out her phone and her attention was immediately diverted.

"It's only afternoon! The art museum is already packed with people!"

Qingze leaned over and glanced at the screen. The art museum, which had received a notice from Kaito Kid, was now packed with people, a sea of ​​black.

Chapter 317 He's such a smooth talker!

"So many people? The museum tickets are going to sell out like crazy!"

This whole spectacle is 99% for the magician under the moonlight. For any exhibition, "Kaito Kid" is a walking traffic magnet.

Sonoko put her phone away, glanced at Ran with a mischievous smile, and said, "These people are all here for Kaito Kid, you know~ Don't you feel threatened?"

"well enough."

Qingze rested her chin on her hand, her face unusually composed.

“They’re chasing after Kidd,” he paused, a gentle smile playing on his lips, “but I like Qingze.”

Sonoko was taken aback at first, then as if she had discovered a new continent, her teasing smile instantly widened to the extreme.

She exaggeratedly clutched her chest, mimicking her previous tone, and repeated in a sickeningly sweet voice, "Oh my~ I~ like~ Qing~ Ze~ ...

She dragged out the last syllable of her sentence and deliberately twisted her shoulders.

Qingze suppressed the urge to roll his eyes and retaliated with an elbow.

Seeing that Xiaolan showed no shyness at all, Sonoko suddenly leaned closer and looked her up and down in surprise.

"How did you become so shameless? You used to blush when we talked about these things!"

She narrowed her eyes suspiciously. "Tell me! Did something happen?"

Faced with Sonoko Suzuki, her "best friend radar," Aozawa had no choice but to unleash his full acting skills.

The girl's face showed shyness, pride, sweetness, and an irrepressible urge to share.

“Um… he came to my house for dinner last night,” the girl lowered her head slightly, her voice carrying just the right amount of sweetness and shyness…

"What?!"

Sonoko's eyes instantly flashed with a light comparable to searchlights, her gossip spirit burning fiercely.

"He came to your house for dinner last night?! And then?!"

She held her breath, leaned forward, and pricked up her ears like antennas.

Qingze continued his performance, his voice even softer, with a touch of dreaminess: "Then... in front of my parents, he said... that he liked me and wanted to be with me..."

"Oh my god!!!"

Sonoko jumped up from her chair, slamming her hands excitedly on the table, her voice suddenly rising eight octaves, making Aozawa's ears ring.

"Is this a confession?! Are you two finally! Finally! Going to be together?! Waaaaaah!!"

She jumped up and down excitedly, as if she were the one being confessed to.

Seeing that Sonoko Suzuki's attention had completely shifted to this matter, Aozawa breathed a sigh of relief.

When chatting with Sonoko Suzuki, you have to talk about love to keep the conversation from going cold.

"I guess... I guess so."

Ran Mouri was a little embarrassed by her reaction, and her cheeks flushed at the right moment.

"However... he still has to get past my dad first."

"Just like my mother set tests for Azhen, could it be that Uncle has also set tests for Qingze?"

"He asked for it himself... That's what he said last night..."

Qingze repeated what Mori Ran had said last night.

Sonoko Suzuki listened while excitedly pounding the table.

"My goodness! He's such a smooth talker..."

She felt she was being persuaded and was willing to hand Xiaolan over to him!

"Yes, he's so good at talking..."

Qingze was also deeply moved.

When Ran Mouri uses the "Sincerity" move, its destructive power is absolutely 100%.

Those words boosted her parents' favorability towards her by at least 60%.

"After all, he's Kid. If he couldn't speak, he wouldn't be the Magician Under the Moonlight..."

Sonoko Suzuki rested her chin on her hands, completely captivated by her friend's beautiful love.

Aozawa stayed at the Suzuki house until 11 p.m., having snacks, watching a movie, and chatting with Sonoko Suzuki...
