Kamen Rider: I, Conan, am Faiz

Chapter 54: Kaito Kidd!

Finally, when the phone memories were almost full, Xiaolan and Sonoko reluctantly let Conan go and let him change into his original clothes again.

While changing clothes, Conan quickly looked around and saw that the jewelry museum, which originally only had an exhibition function, had been transformed into a military fortress.

Not only were there tanks and armored vehicles parked in the open space, but there were also more than a dozen helicopter gunships with missiles hovering in the sky. What was even more amazing was that there were trenches and barbed wire on the ground! If you didn't know, you would probably think that a war was about to start.

Conan: "Sonoko, isn't this a bit exaggerated? It feels like we're going to war."

Upon hearing this, Sonoko immediately put her hands on her hips and said, "I'm not exaggerating. After all, this jewelry exhibition contains our Suzuki family's lucky heirloom. If anything goes wrong, my father will commit suicide in a minute!"

Conan tilted his head in confusion, "Lucky heirloom?"

"The Dark Star is the largest black pearl gem in the world. After my great grandfather obtained the Dark Star, our Suzuki family's fortune began to rise rapidly. It took three generations to develop to the current level."

Just as Conan expressed his doubts, an elegant voice full of charm was heard. Conan turned his head and saw an elegantly dressed lady slowly walking towards him.

Seeing the lady appear, Yuanzi was a little surprised: "Mom, why are you here?"

That’s right, this noble lady was none other than Sonoko’s mother, Suzuki Tomoko.

"Of course I have to personally check the preparations. After all, our Suzuki family heirloom cannot have any mistakes.

Tomoko Suzuki took a quick look at the deployment outside the museum, then waved and pointed to an open space not far away.

"Put three anti-aircraft guns there to prevent Phantom Thief 1412 from escaping with a hang glider."

"As ordered!"

The next moment, more than a dozen armed security personnel pushed anti-aircraft guns and began to deploy.

While the anti-aircraft guns were being deployed, Suzuki Tomoko turned to look at Xiaolan and smiled elegantly: "I'm sorry, Xiaolan, I haven't had time to entertain you properly, but after all, this is about our Suzuki family's heirloom, so please forgive me."

After saying this, Suzuki Tomoko bowed slightly to Xiaolan to express her apology.

Seeing this, Xiaolan said quickly: "Aunt, you are too polite. Don't mind me. I hope my coming here will not cause you any trouble."

"Puchi~ You are still as considerate as before. No wonder our gardener has been able to maintain his friendship with you until now."

The corners of Suzuki Tomoko's mouth curved slightly, and then her gaze turned to Conan.

"You are Edogawa Conan who is now living in Xiaolan's house, right? I heard Sonoko mention you."

"Hello, aunt."

Suzuki Tomoko slowly squatted down and began to carefully look at Conan in front of her. After a moment, she suddenly said, "You do look a lot like the kid from the Kudo family. If it weren't for the age issue, I would really suspect that you are Kudo Shinichi's illegitimate child. After all, that kid has a pretty good relationship with the opposite sex."

"Hi hi~"

[Is this a compliment or an insult to me? ]

Faced with Suzuki Tomoko's words, Conan could only put on an innocent smile of a child to get away with it.

But fortunately, Suzuki Tomoko didn't hold Conan back. After she finished speaking, she stood up and made arrangements: "Okay, let Sonoko take you around here. Just remember not to cause trouble to everyone who is working."

"clear."

Conan and his companions answered obediently, then turned around and prepared to leave.

"By the way, Yuanzi, the son of the World Bank president is going to celebrate his eighteenth birthday soon and he invited us to go over. Can you spare some time..."

"Sorry mom, I'm very busy lately, you and dad can go, bye!"

Understanding what her mother meant, Sonoko found an excuse to refuse, then pulled Xiaolan and Conan and ran away! In a short while, they disappeared without a trace.

Suzuki Tomoko shook her head helplessly: "She always talks about finding her prince charming, but when the critical moment comes, she runs away faster than anyone else, and she even believes in divination... Alas~"

Tomoko Suzuki sighed helplessly like an old mother.

Meanwhile in the corner

"Huff, huff, huff~ I'm so tired. I guess I can't be found hiding here, right?"

Like a stray dog ​​after running wildly, Yuanzi stuck out his tongue and couldn't stop panting. Xiaolan and Conan beside him were not so free and easy, but they also kept panting.

Xiaolan: "Huhu~ Sonoko, why are you running so fast? I almost fell down just now."

"I'm sorry, Xiaolan, but there's nothing I can do. If I don't run faster, my mom will definitely ask me to go and watch those rich young masters go on blind dates, and I don't want to go."

After a long while, the breathing of the three people finally calmed down, and then Conan suddenly spoke.

"By the way, Sister Sonoko, didn't you say that Phantom Thief 1412 left a notice? Can you let me see what it says?"

"Okay, you can take it and read it, but I don't think you can understand it because it's written like a secret code. My dad and the others don't understand what it means."

Sonoko rummaged in her pocket and found a crumpled letter and handed it to Conan.

【April fool】

[When the moon separates the two of us, I will hear the name of the stars in the dark night, and follow the invitation of the waves to claim it.]

After reading the riddle-like information on the preview letter, Conan suddenly fell into deep thought, and his brain cells began to work frantically.

Seeing Conan frowning, Xiaolan and Sonoko looked at each other, then one of them took Conan's hand and walked out tacitly.

"Hey! What is this for!"

Xiaolan: "Conan, let's walk around, maybe we can come up with something."

Sonoko: "Yes, yes, yes! I'll take you to see my Suzuki family's heirloom, the Dark Night Star Pearl! It will definitely open your eyes!"

In this way, Conan was forced to tour the entire museum, and he also saw the Suzuki family's heirloom, the Dark Night Star Pearl, which was about half the size of an adult's palm. It looked black but actually exuded a bright luster.

12:28 PM - Beihu City Hotel Rooftop

"Squeak~"

Conan gently pushed open the iron gate and walked out, his eyes scanning the surrounding scene like a radar.

"Very good. If my reasoning is correct, this is where Phantom Thief 1412 is scheduled to appear."

"Dilili~"

At this moment, Conan's Faiz cell phone suddenly rang. Conan quickly took it out of his pocket and put it to his ear to answer it.

"Hello, Doc."

"Shinichi, I found all the information about Phantom Thief 1412 as you requested. There are even records about him in your father's notes."

Conan was a little surprised when he heard this: "Even my father's notes recorded him?"

"Yes, according to your father's notes, this Phantom Thief 1412 first appeared in Paris 18 years ago, but suddenly disappeared in the tenth year. However, eight years later, he has reappeared before the world, and his activities are mainly within the country."

Conan frowned slightly, "The earliest recorded appearance was eighteen years ago, which means that Phantom Thief 1412 is also quite old."

Dr. Agasa continued, "There are many descriptions of Phantom Thief 1412, such as Lupin of the Heisei Era and the Magician in the Moonlight, but the codename your father gave him is the only one that is widely circulated."

Conan quickly asked: "What code name?"

"Your father was very interested in the Phantom Thief 1412 who played with police officers from all over the world like children, but he felt that the number 1412 was too troublesome, so he simplified the number to KID."

"KID?"

"That's right. So everyone calls this Phantom Thief 1412 by another name."

"Wow!"

Just as Conan was listening attentively to Dr. Agasa's message, he suddenly heard the sound of clothes being blown by the wind behind him. Conan quickly turned his head and his pupils shrank into needle shapes in surprise!

Wearing a white top hat and a white cloak, a man with almost perfect elegance and manners seemed to have dropped from the sky, half-kneeling and landing on the roof, just like a magician under the moonlight announcing the start of the show.

"Kaitou Kidd."

Dr. Agasa on the other end of the phone didn't know the situation on Conan's side, and directly read out Kudo Yu as the code name for Phantom Thief 1412.
