In Conan, people have a brain option system

"Eh-?!"

The broadcast that the necklace "Moon Flower" was stolen directly caused a sensation in the entire Tokyo International Showcase venue.

"Yuehua was stolen? Didn't Kaitou Kid come here for the Scarlet Shadow's Heart?"

"Did someone take the opportunity to commit another crime and want to blame Kaitou Kidd?!"

Hearing the announcement in the venue, the police officers from the Second Investigation Division who were gathering in the B-2 area instantly became a mess.

"Wait a minute, think about it carefully, it seems that Kaito Kidd's notice didn't clearly state what he wanted to steal at all!"

"He never said from the beginning to the end that he wanted to steal Feiying's heart!"

Suddenly a policeman realized this.

Everyone also recalled it.

The content of Kaitou Kidd's notice at the time was "I will go to the Tokyo International Exhibition Center and take away your most precious treasures", but he did not specify his goal.

"Could it be that Kaitou Kidd is not here for Scarlet Shadow's Heart at all? His goal has always been Yuehua?"

"It's just that we mistook Kaitou Kidd's target as Scarlet Shadow's Heart?!"

The female police officer who was previously responsible for confirming the identity of Sera Masumi and Conan said loudly.

After hearing her words, the criminal policemen of the Second Investigation Section on the scene also fell into panic.

The three most important exhibits in this exhibition——

The collection rooms of Ruby Scarlet Heart, Pearl Necklace Moonlight, and the performance costume "Dream Weaver" of a well-known singer in the Showa era are in areas B-2, C-2, and D-2 respectively.

B, C, and D represent different venues respectively, and the following numbers represent the areas inside the corresponding venues.

Most of the police officers who searched Section 2 and the security personnel arranged in advance by Tsukino Takashi were arranged in Hall B.

Although the remaining two venues have also deployed additional security personnel, it is obvious that the security strength and intensity are far less than that of Venue B.

"Wait, there's something I don't understand."

"No matter how you think about it, the Heart of Scarlet Shadow is the most valuable among these three exhibits, right?"

"Even Mr. Tsukino Masayuki is coveting this gem."

"Besides, how can the value of pearls be compared with gems? Even if this thing is expensive, it's not much more expensive, right?"

A policeman said with some confusion.

"This police officer is talking about cultured pearls."

Conan suddenly raised his head and said to the policeman who raised the question.

"What's the difference?"

the policeman asked in confusion.

"Cultured pearls are pearls formed in shellfish through human intervention."

"Cultured pearls are very common now and the output is high, so the price of cultured pearls is not expensive."

"But, I heard that the pearls on the Yuehua Necklace on display this time are all 'natural pearls'."

"Pearls that form naturally without human intervention are extremely rare and therefore very expensive."

Conan explained.

However, he found that

Even after hearing his explanation, the policemen in front of him still looked unconvinced.

Conan once again lamented in his heart the inconvenience of his child's size.

Then he turned his attention to Sera Masumi for help.

Sera Zhenzhen understood, looked at the policemen in front of him and nodded.

"You're right, the price of natural pearls is very expensive."

"I remember that there was a necklace made of natural pearls before, which was sold at auction for US$36 million, which is equivalent to about 5.2 billion yen."

(Pearls owned by Marie Antoinette, wife of Louis XVI)

"5.2 billion?!"

The police officers at the scene all showed shocked expressions after hearing Sera Masumi's words.

Many people have never thought that pearls, which are now ground into powder and made into facial masks, have such terrifying value.

"In short, it is not uncommon for natural pearls to be auctioned for millions of dollars."

"Although this Yuehua is not worth billions of yen, it is a necklace made of a row of natural pearls, so its value will definitely not be low."

Sera Masumi's words also completely solved the confusion of the police officers present.

The moment the broadcast rang, several police officers rushed to the C-2 area.

The police officers who were here at this time all left one after another and went to Hall C after receiving instructions from Nakamori Ginzo.

Just after the police in the room left, Sera Masumi was about to follow him out.

However, she was stopped by Conan.

"Miss Sera, wait a moment."

"What's wrong?"

Sera Masumi turned around and looked at Conan.

"Although necklaces made of natural pearls are also expensive, they are not 'gems'."

Conan said in a deep voice.

"Of course I know that."

Only mineral crystals can be called "gems", and pearls are mainly composed of calcium carbonate secreted by shellfish, so strictly speaking they are "jewelry" rather than "gems".

"Everyone knows that Kaito Kid likes to steal gems, but he doesn't just steal gems, right?"

"I remember, didn't he steal paintings and other things before?"

Sera Masumi asked rhetorically.

"That's true, but in most cases Kaitou Kidd comes after the gems."

"There is a valuable gem in this exhibition, so it stands to reason that Kaito Kidd should be here for the gem."

"I think that the lost pearl necklace is just a trick by Kaito Kidd to lure the tiger away from the mountain. If everyone goes to the C-2 Hall, it may give Kaito Kidd an opportunity to take advantage of it."

Conan, who has fought against Kaito Kidd several times, is already very familiar with his tactics.

So even if the lost pearl necklace is valuable this time, he still believes that Kaito Kidd's real target is the Scarlet Shadow Heart.

Anyway, after the pearl necklace falls into Kaito Kidd's hands, it will most likely be returned.

So Conan thinks that the most urgent task at the moment should be to continue to guard the Scarlet Shadow Heart collection room.

"In that case, why didn't you tell Officer Nakamori just now?"

Sera Masumi asked.

"Because I'm not sure if it was Kid who stole the pearl necklace."

"Besides, Officer Nakamori and Kaito Kid are old rivals. If this is really Kaito Kid's plan, he will feel at ease to implement his real plan after seeing Officer Nakamori leading a large group of police officers from the Second Investigation Division to the C-2 area!"

"So I think Kaito Kid is likely to take advantage of the weakest security in the B-2 area and come to attack his real target, Scarlet Heart!"

After Conan finished speaking, he ran in the opposite direction of the detectives from the Second Investigation Division who had just left.

Sera Masumi followed behind and understood what Conan meant.

He wanted to use the police as bait to lure out Kaito Kid and fight against Kaito Kid alone.
