On the evening of April 4th, after four o'clock, reborn didn't show up, and Tsunayoshi Sawada suddenly became a little flustered. He was not good at dealing with such situations, especially when he was attending a cruise dinner held by a big chaebol like the Suzuki chaebol. The dinner seems to be such a grand event to celebrate the 19th anniversary of the founding of the Suzuki Zaibatsu.Sawada Tsunayoshi naturally did not dare to underestimate him.

Seeing his bewildered look, Zhong Yuanzhong was also a little helpless, and he took the initiative to take people to the cruise ship. After all, Yokohama Port, everyone has been there many times.

After checking tickets one by one and boarding the boat, Yosano Akiko asked belatedly, "Speaking of which, where are Mr. Ranpo and the president?"

"They accepted the direct entrustment of the Suzuki chaebol, and they have already gone to the ship first." Kunikida Doppo would carry his pocketbook with him wherever he went. At this time, he flipped through it a little, and replied directly with "Thank you." Ye Akiko's question.

"A commission from the Suzuki Zaibatsu?" Oda Sakunosuke asked curiously.

"It's the one from before, about Kaitou Kidd." Dazai Osamu immediately explained, "Didn't Aprilfool be written in the notice letter that day, which means April Fool's Day, that is, April 4st is not Kaitou. The day Kidd would steal."

"I see." Oda Sakunosuke nodded knowingly.

"Actually, if you think about it, you will know. If I were a member of the Suzuki Zaibatsu, I would have put away the Black Star that day. Of course, the Kaitou wouldn't be able to steal anything." Yosano Akiko quite understood what he did. "Today is the Suzuki Zaibatsu's [-]th anniversary celebration banquet, and everyone in the Suzuki Zaibatsu has to take out the black star, so it's not surprising that Kaito Kidd chose to do it today."

"That's why the president and Mr. Ranpo were called to protect the gems..." Oda Sakunosuke said softly.

"I think Xuan..." Chuya Nakahara hadn't finished speaking when they heard the voice from the boat, "Hurry up and catch that Kaitou Kidd!"

Accompanied by the sound of chickens flying and dogs jumping, the group saw a figure flashing in the front corridor, followed by a group of plainclothes policemen and men in black clothes.

Not long after, Edogawa Ranpo and Fukuzawa Yukichi were invited to their side respectfully.

"What, what's wrong?" Tsunayoshi Sawada asked cautiously.

"Well, Mrs. Tomoko sent me out because I revealed the identity of Kaitou Kidd who was disguised as Suzuki Shiro." Edogawa Ranpo didn't mind at all, after all, although he was sent out, he Not only that, but also gave a lot of vouchers for related stores under the name of the Suzuki Zaibatsu—almost all of them belonged to dessert shops, and even told him that this time to invite Detective Edogawa Ranpo to come, He also specially left a whole table of special desserts for him, using pure natural sugar substitutes, delicious and not fat.

Hearing this, Edogawa Ranpo couldn't sit still, so he dragged Fukuzawa Yukichi and ran over immediately.

But even so, Edogawa Ranpo still specially reminded Ms. Tomoko that she had better bring some trustworthy bodyguards with her, and then don't let anyone other than her personal bodyguards approach her.

Tomoko Suzuki knew almost instantly that her plan had been seen through by the famous detective in front of her. While feeling in her heart that the famous detective's reputation was well-deserved, she hesitated whether to let the famous detective be so far away from her.

However, the famous detective at this time was already thinking about going to eat a cake that would not make him fat, so he couldn't care about her.

"Mr. Suzuki Shiro is confirmed to be still in Suzuki House in Tokyo, and it is impossible to rush over here." Fukuzawa Yukichi explained in detail, "So wait for the opening speech of the anniversary, and it can only be given by Tomoko Ladies, it's on."

Tsunayoshi Sawada still doesn't quite understand, isn't it just an opening speech, it doesn't matter who attends it?

"Different Judaimu." Hayato Gagoji at the side hurriedly answered him, "On large occasions, the opening of the boss and the opening of other people's agents are different in nature. If someone else acts as the agent for the opening, some People regard it as disrespectful to guests. If it is not handled properly, it will be very troublesome."

That's why Edogawa Ranpo was thanked by Tomoko Suzuki for revealing Suzuki Shiro's real body too early.It's just because Tomoko Suzuki is really good at being a man, even if he is sending off guests, the guests are satisfied, and even want to be sent off again next time (?).

"Ranpo-sama is right." Edogawa Ranpo didn't think he was wrong at all, "In the end, isn't it the fault of that phantom thief?"

There is no doubt that Edogawa Ranpo's words are very pertinent, telling the truth in one sentence.

"But Kidd is really amazing, he really escaped." Sawada Tsunayoshi couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

"It's not that we escaped, but we didn't chase after him at all." Edogawa Ranpo quickly pointed out the loopholes in Sawada Tsunayoshi's words.

"Hey? Why?" Tsunayoshi Sawada was taken aback by Edogawa Ranpo's words, and he couldn't understand why they didn't catch the thief even though they were a detective agency.

However, at this time, Edogawa Ranpo had already devoted himself to the cake over there, completely ignoring the doubts of the young man over there.

Central Plains on the side couldn't bear it, so he walked over and explained to him: "Although we are a detective agency, the commission we received was to protect the Black Star Gem, not to capture Kaitou Kidd. Although it is not impossible to do so , but if we really do this, it is equivalent to robbing the job of the Metropolitan Police Department's second investigation section, the Intelligent Criminal Search Department, and it will make the relationship between us and the Metropolitan Police Department deadlocked. Well, in short, they are some big talents Things you need to know, you are still a child, you don’t need to know that much.”

After thinking about it, he added, "I think if you really need to know about such a thing, your tutor will take time out to guide you, so don't worry."

Sawada Tsunayoshi, who was still very emotional when he heard the last sentence, wanted to say something instantly, Mr. Nakahara, you are mistaken, my tutor will not guide me well at all, he will only draw out A gun was placed on my head, telling me that if I can't learn it, I will die!

Nakahara Nakahara couldn't hear the inner roar of Sawada Tsunayoshi, he just paused and turned his head in one direction.

"What a sharp reaction." Reborn's voice came out from Nakahara Chuya's line of sight. He took off the hat on his head and bent down to salute: "ciaos——"

"ciao." Nakahara Chuya, who had learned several foreign languages ​​no matter what, nodded to him.

"As expected of the legendary Armed Detective Agency, each of them is not a simple character." Reborn put his hat back on, reached out and gently stroked his temples, and looked at the people who were eating happily around the buffet table. Dongxi's group did not know when Qiqi turned to this side. He saluted again generously, and the people over there immediately resumed their original lively and noisy.

"Reborn, where have you been!" Sawada Tsunayoshi grumbled as he greeted his tutor.

"Reborn?" Oda Sakunosuke over there had a strange look on his face, as if he was thinking about where he had heard this name before.

"That's what you think." Edogawa who was eating at the side with his bulging cheeks said vaguely, "Don't doubt it, it's just what you guessed."

Edogawa's random words immediately brought Oda Sakunosuke back to his senses, he looked at the little baby over there with some expressionless expression, turned around and walked over and asked: " Excuse me, are you the current No. [-] assassin in the world, Your Excellency?"

"Oh, you actually know me?" Reborn gave him a curious look.

"Well, I've heard of it before." Oda Sakunosuke scratched his head, and then said seriously, regardless of the baby in front of him, "You are amazing."

"Of course." Reborn faced the flustered eyes of Sawada Tsunayoshi, picked up Leon who was on the brim of his hat, and turned the Lien lizard into a green folding fan with his backhand and slammed it on the small fan. On Gangji's head, "Stupid Gang, don't show such a submissive expression!"

"Pfft, Your Excellency Reborn's guidance method is really interesting." Osamu Dazai held a glass of champagne and watched the interaction between the boy and the baby over there, and couldn't help laughing.

Not long after boarding the boat, he heard someone yelling "Grab that Kidd". Conan immediately looked over there, but his speed of probing out was still a bit slow, and he only saw a figure flashing After a while, the plainclothes policemen came running wildly, and some men in black were following the policemen in the distance, but the distance between them was quite subtle.

Seeing so many men in black, it is naturally impossible for Edogawa Conan to attack his winery ptsd on the spot. On this occasion, seeing so many men in black suits, no matter how you look at it, it may only be the security guards on this ship Conan could tell the difference, especially after he saw people in black suits and sunglasses around the banquet hall, he was even more convinced of this.

"Huh? Lord Kidd?" Suzuki Sonoko also heard the voice and leaned over curiously, "Where is it? Is it a handsome middle-aged uncle?"

"No one saw it at all." Mao Lilan next to her hurriedly grabbed the over-excited best friend, and couldn't help but said helplessly, "Yuanzi, after all, he is also someone who wants to steal your gems, so you can't change it." Be more vigilant?"

"Hey hey..." Suzuki Sonoko couldn't help sticking out his tongue, "This time the gem will definitely not be lost, after all, Dad invited people from Mori Club to do security work, and Mom hired people from Armed Detective Agency Come be the jewel's bodyguard."

"Hey? Armed detective agency? Isn't that the person from the detective agency that Shinichi likes so much?" Mao Lilan asked in surprise, "Could it be that Mrs. Suzuki invited the legendary famous detective Edogawa Ranpo?"

"Yeah, isn't it super powerful?" Suzuki Sonoko said proudly.

"Well, um, where is the famous detective?" Mao Lilan said nervously, "Yuanzi, I want to ask him for an autograph. Do you have a signature pad and pen?"

"Of course, hehe, I knew it would be like this." Suzuki Sonoko took out a handbag and found a signature pad and a pen, "I prepared it for you before."

"Thank you, Yuanzi!" Mao Lilan was so moved.

"Sonoko, you're here." Just when Suzuki Sonoko was about to say something, her mother had already walked over. Suzuki Tomoko was dressed in a suit of etiquette, and she was surrounded by several bodyguards. She was very imposing. , but when facing Mao Lilan and the others, he was still very gentle, "I'm really sorry, my daughter has to be taken away for a while, and she will come back later. I hope you can have a good dinner today. "

"Ah yes, that, thank you very much for inviting us to the banquet." Mao Lilan saluted very seriously.

"It's okay, he's such a good boy." Tomoko Suzuki couldn't help but said with a smile, and after a few social greetings with Mori Kogoro, he said to Xiaolan again, "Then let's go away for a while."

"Mom, why did you call me over all of a sudden?" Suzuki Sonoko followed curiously.

"Your father and Ayako are still at home now. The previous one was pretended by Kaitou Kidd. Now the ship is about to leave, and the two of them can't catch up." Suzuki Tomoko has a headache when talking about this, why is her husband so honest? , He said on the phone that the other party was the police, and he believed that the sailing time was delayed. This time, so many guests were invited for the [-]th anniversary celebration. How could it be so easy to change the time?

Tomoko Suzuki sighed helplessly, "Anyway, Dad can't get on the boat now, so you have to go with me for the next speech."

Although Suzuki Sonoko loves to play, she has received an elite education anyway, so she naturally understands what she should understand, so she nodded immediately and followed behind her mother.

Not long after, the ship officially left Yokohama Port and slowly moved towards the sea.

Tomoko Suzuki took the place of her husband to deliver a speech, followed by her second daughter. Tomoko Suzuki herself is also a high-level executive of the Suzuki Group. When she spoke, she was full of momentum. Although the guests were puzzled as to why Mr. With Tomoko's aggressive appearance, no one dared to ask questions.After all, the Suzuki chaebol is not a small chaebol. To put it bluntly, about half of the guests who came to the banquet this time depended on the Suzuki chaebol to survive.

After the speech, Tomoko Suzuki also showed everyone the small gift she gave to each uploaded guest, a black pearl of the same style as the Black Star, and bluntly said that all guests can make this black pearl in the style of a brooch afterwards. Pearls to take home.

Tomoko Suzuki's boldness and generosity also attracted the favor of many tourists, and the subsequent magic show made countless tourists hooked after being surprised.

"Phew, I thought a murder case was going to happen in front of me." Tsunayoshi Sawada looked at the magician in front of him who was packing his white clothes, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"It's impossible for something to happen. If someone really poked, no, if someone died on the ship of the security guard of the Mori Club, Mr. Mori's face would be really dragged to the ground and stepped on." Osamu Dazai on the side was very He commented leisurely.

"Mr. Mori is..." Sawada Tsunayoshi felt that something was wrong, but he asked in a slightly evasive manner.

"It's Portafia's boss, otherwise, why do you think Portafia is called "Mori Club"? " Dazai said with a smile.

"That magician boy shouldn't let it go, right?" Nakahara Chuya said vaguely while eating the strawberry snack in his hand, "After all, his disguise didn't last a round in front of Mr. Ranpo."

"Well, that guy is different from his father. He unexpectedly refuses to admit defeat. He really is a young man." Edogawa Ranpo continued to eat and talk, "But it doesn't matter, anyway, he will probably disguise himself as a Anyone can guess it, as long as we ask the president to pay more attention to Mrs. Tomoko Suzuki."

"Ah..." Fukuzawa Yukichi nodded seriously.

Tomoko Suzuki on the stage let her daughter go to play after giving her speech. She brought her bodyguards alone and socialized with people with a smile on her face.

Conan on the other end sneaked out when he heard the start of the speech. He understood why it was Suzuki Tomoko and Suzuki Sonoko who gave the speech. It is estimated that Kaito Kidd pretended to be the Suzuki chaebol. Mr. Shiro Suzuki.

However, the flaw was exposed so quickly. It seems that either Kaitou Kidd's disguise technique is not good enough, or the detective who saw Kaitou Kidd is too keen in observation.

After hearing the few familiar terms just now, Edogawa Conan was [-]% sure that it was definitely pointed out by his idol, Mr. Edogawa Ranpo!Mr. Ranpo is too powerful!But in this way, it's really not good for me to approach the Armed Detective Agency casually, and I will be exposed, right?It will definitely be exposed!Conan Edogawa felt a little pain in his teeth.

Forget it, I don’t think about it so much now, the primary goal now is to catch the Kaitou Kidd, that guy dared to say something like "If the Kaitou is an artist, then the detective is a critic", just think about it. People feel angry, heh, Kidd, do you dare to say these words to Mr. Ranpo?

However, after Conan turned around and asked many crew members, not only did he not see the trace of the Kaitou Kidd, but he also did not find any clues that could be used. Goro and their side.

"That's why I told you not to run around!" Mori Kogoro hit Conan's head with an iron fist, "It's all because of you running around, and Xiaolan went out to find you!"

"That is to say, I took Xiaolan to the table of the Armed Detective Agency just now." Suzuki Sonoko also shook her head helplessly. She put the signature pad and pen in her hand bag into her carry-on bag, and then showed her face again. The nympho said, "Wow, there are so many handsome guys over there, I think it doesn't matter if I don't see Kidd."

As she said that, she looked at the uncle next to her with some disgust. They were also detectives, and there were handsome men and beautiful women over there, while she was a lecherous middle-aged uncle on her side. The gap between people is really huge.

"Hey? Sister Xiaolan helped Brother Shinichi get his autograph? I want to see it too!" Conan noticed something else at the first time, and he hurriedly wanted to see what Sonoko Suzuki had put away. signature pad.

"I said it was for Kudo Shinichi's reasoning house, what are you looking at?" Sonoko Suzuki said this, but he reached for his bag and took out the signature board, "Here, Just watch it if you want to, but don't get dirty, you know?"

"Okay..." Conan nodded pretending to be cute, and then looked at Edogawa Ranpo's signature in front of him, his whole body was about to bubble with joy.

"Tch, why do both of them like the detective over there so much?" Kogoro Mori muttered a little sourly.

"Dad, have you seen Conan-kun... Ah, Conan-kun!" Mao Lilan walked over from the other side, still looking for Conan Edogawa, when he saw Conan standing beside his father, Mao Lilan Lang suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, and hurried over, "Conan-kun, where have you been?"

Just when Conan was about to pretend to be a fool, a boy's voice came from the other side, "Miss Sonoko, is this your thing?"

Several people followed the sound and saw a young man with brown fluffy hair standing not far from them, holding a small ornament with a unique shape in his hand.And behind the boy were two silver-haired and black-haired boys who had been picked up near the table over there before.

When Suzuki Sonoko saw it, she subconsciously touched her clothes. Sure enough, the previous item was gone. She immediately extended her hand generously, "Thank you, this item is indeed mine. Thank you for sending it back."

"Hmm..." Sawada Tsunayoshi also heaved a sigh of relief. After returning the jewelry in his hand, he looked at Xiaolan who was standing aside with some doubts, "Well...how should I put it, Miss Xiaolan, It's like a different person..."

"What did you say?" Several people on the side heard his words, and Mao Lilan looked over with some doubts, "What do you mean, I seem to be a different person?"

In fact, the Kaito Kidd under Mao Lilan's skin is already sweating profusely. What's the matter? It's okay that the detective named Edogawa Ranpo could see through his disguise at a glance. Why is this brown hedgehog? The little devil in the head can also see the flaw at a glance. Could it be that his disguise ability has really dropped so much?

"Ah, no, that..." Tsunayoshi Sawada waved his hands weakly to explain, but Hayato Gokudera behind him stepped forward and said loudly: "Judaime said you changed, you must have changed! You You’re wearing a costume, so you’re Kaitou Kid, right?”

When Hayato spoke, he was very angry and his voice was very loud. For a while, most people in the banquet hall focused their eyes on them.

"That, Prisoner-kun!" Tsunayoshi Sawada had never experienced such a feeling of attention, so he waved his hands again and again in fright.

"How could Mr. Kidd pretend to be Xiaolan? It's impossible." Suzuki Sonoko just smiled and waved his hands, thinking how could the handsome guy in his mind do such a thing.

Takeshi Yamamoto, who came with Tsunayoshi Sawada, laughed and smoothed things over, "Didn't Kidd be very good at disguise? If that's the case, just turn Miss Xiaolan's face to know whether she is Kidd or not." Are you okay?"

Done!

Kaitou Kidd wailed in his heart, why on earth did he come to this ship today, and as soon as he came, he encountered people who easily dismantled him.

"How is it possible?" Suzuki Sonoko still didn't believe it, but the three teenagers in front of him were all handsome, so even if what they said slightly offended her, she didn't care, she just smiled and stretched out her hand towards the cheek of her best friend, "Xiaolan, don't move!" Ah, let me pinch and show those teenagers."

Oh open!

Kaitou Kidd quickly grabbed the opponent's hand, and then fled away in an extremely fast manner!

"Huh?" Seeing her best friend running away suddenly, Suzuki Sonoko also realized that something was wrong, and she quickly chased after her, "Wait a minute!"

Conan's reaction speed is amazing. After the Kaitou Kidd ran away, he quickly chased after him, "Kidd, stop!" You disguised as Xiaolan, what about Xiaolan!
