Conan Moslin

The result of Li An's casual request was that she kidnapped the precious daughter of two fathers and took away a Conan.

Because the announced time had not yet arrived, the few people left quickly and smoothly.

Outside the museum is a relatively open space with dozens of police cars and armored vehicles parked neatly.

Several helicopters patrolled the air.

All this trouble, just for one person.

Seeing someone coming out of the exhibition hall, several police officers who were investigating subconsciously went to look, but were interrupted by a voice coming from the walkie-talkie.

"Don't worry, the few people who just left the museum are all distinguished guests of the Suzuki family."

"Continue patrolling."

That was Officer Chaki's voice.

Apparently, Shiro Suzuki and Officer Chaki got in touch and reached a consensus to let them go and find out about the surrounding situation.

Standing next to the dark star, looking at the backs of several young people through the window, Shiro Suzuki was thinking silently.

I heard from Chamu's subordinates that the kid also fought with No. 1412... Maybe he will give him a surprise?

And... there are other things after that...

When stepping out of the museum's fenced gate, Li An looked back.

Reflected in the huge floor-to-ceiling window was a tall figure in police uniform, who was slightly raising the brim of his hat to salute.

The smile on his lips couldn't be seen clearly because of the distance and the reflection of the sunlight.

Li An smiled faintly, ignoring the guy who had so brazenly entered the house, and turned back to Mao Lilan and Yuan Zi and said, "How about we go to the Rice Flower Public Hall that Mr. Mao Li just mentioned?"

Conan, who was running at the end, stumbled.

He thought back to what Mr. Maori had said.

"Waves refer to the ocean, and when we mention the ocean, we think of the wilderness. Stars mean celebrities, and they refer to the idol star Okino Yoko who will be holding a concert at the nearby Beika Public Hall starting tomorrow..."

"…That means tomorrow night at 9pm after the last song of Ms. Yoko's concert, "Moon Girl", you will appear near the Beika Public Hall!"

Thinking of this, Conan's gaze towards Li An changed from surprise to horror.

Hey, hey! You didn't believe Uncle Maori's lies, did you?

When asking Xiaolan and Sonoko if they had anywhere they wanted to go, Li An naturally caught his gaze.

She looked at Conan with an unchanged smile: "Conan, where else do you think we can go?"

"I...I also want to go to the Tsutsu River."

Li An nodded: "Then let's go."

Li An's specialty is only in finding people and finding the magic props he arranged in advance. So sometimes, she can't understand Kaito's train of thought when writing secret codes.

Kaito's code words were sometimes too tricky, and she felt helpless.

Such as this time.

If you want to find the secret code, you have to visit several possible locations.

The only thing she could be sure of was that the two locations mentioned by Officer Chaki and Detective Maori must be ruled out.

Nothing happened on the way to the Rice Flower Public Hall.

"Sister Li An, are you also thinking about the solution to the code?" Mao Lilan was a little curious, "I thought you were not interested in these..."

Li An nodded: "Well, I wasn't interested at first, but..."

Seeing that Mao Lilan was still confused, she blinked and smiled.

"Xiaolan, haven't you remembered yet?"

"On the day Mr. Maori encountered the case in the hospital, there were some other police officers catching him..."

"Isn't it number 1412?"

Conan was stunned.

Mao Lilan suddenly realized: "Ah, now that you mention it... it seems that there were several police officers I didn't know patrolling around at that time..."

“When I came here today, I saw a lot of the same officers I’d seen before.”

Facing Xiaolan's question, Li An listed them all, "The police officer standing guard by the stairs on the second floor, the police officer standing guard by the wall behind the ruby ​​Rubile sent by the Gutian family, and the one on the first floor..."

"Since I entered the museum, I have seen a total of 23 police officers who were not from Megure's command at the hospital."

Uncle Nakamori's five subordinates are also on duty here.

"They are not local police officers from Beihua. They are affiliated with the Intelligent Criminal Investigation Division 2. This is what Officer Chaki said when I came in."

Of course, Kidd isn't the only intelligent criminal, so this argument isn't enough.

"The most important thing is... I saw him at the art museum in Jianggutian." Li An recalled the scene of that day, with some admiration in his tone, "His magic tricks are very interesting."

CONAN: So... is that the point?

And, wait, Sister Li An has met him?!

"Sister Li An, I see you don't seem to be interested in that guy in the museum..."

Li An glanced at him and didn't answer.

Nonsense, there's a fake item in the display cabinet, it would be strange if she was interested in it.

However, thinking of this, Li An's eyes flashed.

Although Officer Chaki is Officer Nakamori's superior, Uncle Nakamori should also come.

There are fifteen more of his subordinate officers who are not here.

So...he and those people were sent to protect the real dark night stars?

"Sister Li An, you are so awesome!" Mao Li Ran was not very clear about the situation of the other group of police officers at that time. She was wholeheartedly focused on her father Mao Li Kogoro, so she had no impression of the people Li An mentioned.

But even so, being able to remember these people and match them up...

Li An came back to his senses and shook his head: "When you can't talk, you can only observe more."

"That's amazing!" Seeing that no one was talking, Sonoko couldn't help herself. Her eyes had been shining since Li An said that Kid had entered the hospital. "And, Li An, you mean... the night Xiaolan and I went to the hospital... Phantom Thief 1412 also went to the hospital?"

After receiving Li An's affirmative reply, she beat her chest and stamped her feet: "I didn't even see the heroic figure of No. 1412... What a pity!"

Conan thought more.

Because before this, he had never connected No. 1412 and Kidd.

Thinking of this, he ran a few steps and caught up with Li An: "But I remember... the police officers said at that time that the person they were arresting was Kaito Kid..."

Li An was perfunctorily surprised.

"You don't know? I thought you knew all about these things that are easy to find out..."

"The simplified symbol for No. 1412 is KID."

……

"Yes, the real Dark Night Star is already well protected."

In the glass cabinet of the booth, spread with soft and clean red silk, a round black pearl embedded in silver ornaments was lying there quietly.

Although the surface of pearls is smooth, it has become dull due to the polishing of time and years.

Officer Nakamori looked at this plain black pearl and felt that it seemed a bit shabby compared to its imitation.

After all, no matter how well preserved it is, this pearl has existed for more than fifty years or even longer.

It's impossible to be as eye-catching as a replica.

The complaint only took a moment. Officer Nakamori looked at the people standing guard in a circle and assured Officer Chaki very confidently.

"Chamu Manager, with me, Nakamori Ginzo, here, no one will ever find this place!"
