Conan: Live in the Maori Detective Agency at the beginning

Maori Kogoro began his reasoning around these four words, "Let's talk about the mastermind first. Needless to say, it's Kaito Kidd."

"As for the location of the crime, it was on the stage of Romeo and Juliet's theater, the Cosmic Theater."

"As for the time, the preview letter mentioned applause. So it should be when accepting the audience's applause."

"Finally, it's his method. The letter mentions a conqueror." Maori Kogoro raised his finger confidently, saying, "This refers to Napoleon, the character that Kaito Kid intends to play."

Maori Kogoro looked at the letter on the table and continued, "As for the last playing card in the notice letter. This card was obviously torn in half, which is the V for victory."

"So Kaito Kidd should be in the stage play Josephine that you are performing when he is receiving applause from the audience."

"Disguise yourself as Napoleon and find another opportunity to steal the sapphire star."

There was a hint of surprise in Xingchen's eyes. This time, his uncle's reasoning sounded quite reasonable.

But there are still some doubts. I always feel that Kaito Kidd will take people by surprise this time.

At this time, applause broke out. Maki said while clapping, "That's amazing, Mr. Maori. You are indeed worthy of being a famous detective."

Yaguchi Masayo also reacted and stretched out her hand to applaud.

"No, it's nothing!" Kogoro Mouri touched his head and laughed.

"Hey, uncle."

Kogoro Mouri's laughter stopped abruptly, and he turned to look at Conan, who had run over and sat on the sofa at some point.

"What does it mean when it says 26 letters dancing in an interlaced pattern?" Conan asked the most crucial question, because Kogoro Mouri did not explain the meaning of this passage.

"Idiot!" Maori Kogoro said with his hands on his hips, "Just count the English letters above. Romeo, Juliet, Victor, Bravo. That adds up to 26 English letters."

"Is that so?" Conan nodded and shouted, then pretended to count the English letters on his fingers.

"By the way, Miss Juri, when will Josephine's performance end?"

"Today is the last day." Makijuri responded.

"So Kaito Kid will be in..." Kogoro Mouri was interrupted by Conan before he could finish his thoughts.

"Ah la la la."

"Brat, what's your problem!" Kogoro Mouri clenched his fists and shouted at Conan.

"It doesn't seem right. Look, there are only 22 letters on it." Conan said, pointing to the English on the letter.

"How is this possible?" Kogoro Mouri crossed his arms and looked at Conan in disbelief.

"Uncle, there are indeed only 22 letters on it." After hearing this, Xingchen came to Conan, glanced at the English letters on it, and nodded.

"I just calculated it." Mao Lilan said, holding her hands on the sofa, "Even if you add an exclamation mark, it's still three letters short."

The two little ones nodded at the same time.

"....." Maori Kogoro turned his head away and said guiltily: "This, then it must be that Kaito Kidd made a mistake."

When Xingchen heard this, he was speechless and said, Uncle, do you think a highly intelligent criminal can make mistakes in such basic arithmetic?

Conan also looked at Kogoro Mouri speechlessly.

"Well...in short, Kaito Kid will definitely steal the sapphire star tonight." Kogoro Mouri said after coughing lightly a few times.

"Okay, I understand." Mu Shuli nodded in response.

"I want to discuss one more thing with you. Although the police will come to guard later, can you please come to the theater tonight as well?" Makiri asked, "Stop Kaito Kidd from stealing this gem."

"No problem!" Kogoro Mori would definitely not refuse the invitation of a beautiful woman.

He sat down and said seriously: "I, Maori Kogoro, will never refuse a request from a beautiful woman."

Humph, an expression of dissatisfaction instantly appeared on Mao Lilan's face.

"Thank you so much." Makuri clasped her hands together and said this. She didn't even see Yaguchi Masayo react, so she nudged her agent with her elbow.

Yaguchi Masayo finally reacted and took out an envelope from her bag.

Seeing this, Makiri couldn't wait to take the envelope and handed it to Maori Kogoro and said, "Here are the tickets for tonight's show."

“You are welcome to bring your friends to enjoy it.”

"Thank you very much." Kogoro Mouri said excitedly and took the envelope with both hands.

Conan next to him felt that things were not that simple, and continued to look at the warning letter from Kaito Kid.

As for Xingchen, he suddenly became alert because he felt that there seemed to be something outside the window spying on them. He turned around and looked but didn't see anything unusual.

Then Xingchen walked step by step to the window and looked up at the building opposite.

I saw a snow-white pigeon looking around on the anti-theft net on the roof of the building opposite.

After a while, the pigeon seemed to notice his gaze and flew away in a hurry.

Xingchen was speechless. Was it necessary to stare at them?

This Kuroba Kaito, we have to give him a lesson this time.

the other side.

Inside a dessert shop.

Kuroba Kaito sat in the corner, looking at the screen in his hand with a bad look on his face.

He couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, and thought inwardly, how did this little brat find out about me?

Could it be that he has thought of some new way to punish himself this time? Last time, he asked his grandfather to dismantle the tape recorder completely.

It even caused him to eat fish dishes for two days. In Qingzi's words, after all, it was a gift from others and it would be bad to waste it.

Thinking of being bullied by someone again, Kuroba Kaito couldn't help but scratch his hair.

This is the only way to avoid someone. If Xingchen doesn't know Kuroba Kaito's home, then Kuroba Kaito has a hundred ways to avoid someone's prank.

I’m just afraid that he will do the same as last time and send the fish directly to his home or Qingzi’s home.

There is no escape in this case.

hateful.

"Kaito, what are you doing?" Nakamori Aoko looked at him with confusion.

"Ah, nothing." When Kaito Kuroba heard the voice, he quickly put away the small tablet in his hand and said with a smile.

"Really? You look like you're eating fish." Nakamori Aoko put her bag on the chair next to her and smiled.

"Is...is there?!" Kuroba Kaito said with a deflated look on his face.

"Are you really not hiding anything from me?" Nakamori Aoko raised her eyebrows and said.

"Of course not. By the way, the food at this Funinglan dessert shop is quite delicious." Kuroba Kaito changed the subject and said with a smile, "The name is like the sea, which is very suitable for the color of Aoko today."

"The color of the sea?"

Nakamori Aoko suddenly understood the meaning and said with a red face: "Kaito~!!!"

Immediately afterwards, a bag was thrown at Kuroba Kaito's face.
