The Phantom Thief of Heart! But Conan

Karasawa was standing not far behind Tonkou Shigehiko. Hoshikawa Teru, who had just been persuaded to leave, adjusted his expression. He was holding a tray with drinks in his hand and was rubbing it around several tables not far from him. Foreign workers.

The police officers who were searching the first section were surrounding on the other side, looking around all the time, fully alert.

Although the guests at the reception were briefly attracted by the commotion here, they quickly looked away when they saw that the conflict ended quickly and continued their conversations and greetings.

Here are the so-called upper-class people... You can guess some dirty things just by looking at them.

But everyone must maintain etiquette and decency, and naturally they will not reveal anything. At most, they will exchange a few meaningful looks during chat.

For a time, the atmosphere in the venue became harmonious, and everything seemed to have returned to calm.

Tang Ze patiently waited for the process to progress, and would use his peripheral vision to pay attention to the situation in the field from time to time, guarding against Haibara Ai who might appear at any time.

He saw Kenzo Masayama's face from an almost diagonal position.

Since he had visited his palace twice in the past two days, Tang Ze was already very familiar with him. After observing his mental state for a moment, he looked away.

On the other side, Conan's nerves were tense, and he clicked the dial, preparing to use an anesthetic needle to control the killer once the attack started.

"...This time, the daughter of Director Sakenomaki also brought a very precious collection. Distinguished guests," the emcee, who was standing in front of him with a microphone in his hand, had a decent ceremonial smile, turned around, and looked at the slowly descending sky behind him. The white screen said, "Let's take a good look at these slides that Director Sakemaki collected during his lifetime."

At his wave, a projector was pushed to the front of the stage. As soon as the machine was in place, the lights in the entire banquet hall were turned off.

What, slides...?

Conan's eyes widened and he quickly reacted. When his eyes adapted to the darkness, he looked in the direction of Tonguchi Shigehiko, and there was no one in sight.

Oops! The murderer may want to take advantage of this opportunity!

Conan gritted his teeth and watched the policemen who also discovered that the target was missing were whispering to each other. They also began to check among the guests, and hurriedly ran into the crowd, trying hard to distinguish people between their legs.

With his height, he would be easily obscured among this group of adults, but he turned off the lights...

Ah, is that wise?

Conan, who was looking around like a headless fly, suddenly saw a figure with a familiar hair color in the darkness.

Goro Akechi, who was dressed in pitch black, was looking for Shigehiko Tonguchi as well, and was walking slowly through the crowd towards the opposite corner of the venue.

Akechi is also a very observant detective... Thinking this, Conan stared at the chestnut-haired head, tried his best to squeeze through the crowd, and walked in the direction of Akechi.

Tangze blinked his red eyes, glanced at the direction of the Death Tarot, sighed secretly, and stopped with some pity.

If you get closer, you should be able to see it more clearly.

But if he gets closer and Conan sees his movements clearly, he will become suspicious, right?

Now, it's not time to let him know that Goro Akechi has a problem.

Thinking like this, he naturally stopped and stretched out his hand, just in time to support Zhongyan, who was staggering while pushing through the crowd in a hurry.

"This is a scene from "Rainbow Handkerchief," director Sakemaki's masterpiece that has won multiple world-class awards. Since at that time, the crew did not have the habit of retaining interludes, we could only find the narrations of many staff members. This picture is a very precious image material. Moreover, this is a very important recording shot before Director Shimonaki's hair was thinning!" The energetic emcee stood beside the projector and narrated humorously to the audience, which attracted everyone's attention. There was a burst of chuckles and applause from the audience.

"Watch your steps." At this noisy moment, Karasawa supported Shigehiko Tonguchi, walked past him, and whispered in his ear, "'Kumail' says hello and farewell to you...Father. "

Before Yankou Shigehiko could react, Tangze let go of his hand and gently pushed him forward who had already stood firm.

Because of the organization's instructions, the eager-to-action Tonkou Zhongyan used this power to rush forward a few times and stood at the designated position. Only then did he slowly realize that the words he just heard in his ears were probably meant for him.

"Kumail"...that's...

After swallowing, Zhongyan felt a chill down his spine, and couldn't help but turn his head and look at the person who had just supported him.

——Then he saw the smiling face of his illegitimate son.

His face suddenly became twisted and frightened.

Before he could react, he saw Goro Akechi move slightly to the side, revealing the person who had been standing behind him.

Xingchuan Hui, who was dressed as a waiter, stood there with an indifferent expression. After thinking about it, he simply stretched out his hand, took off the glasses that covered the upper half of his face, smoothed back his slightly long bangs, and smoothed his smooth face. Revealed in the pale light reflected by the slide.

He twitched the corner of his mouth, brought the same face close to Tang Ze, and smiled sinisterly at Shigehiko Tonkou.

"You, you..." Tunkou Zhongyan's weak voice came out of his throat, and he raised his arms tremblingly.

However, before he could react, a bright light flashed.

The flashlight that determines fate lights up at this moment.

"Huh?" "Yeah!"

In the darkness, a sudden dazzling light illuminated many people who turned their heads away and let out small screams.

The emcee who saw this scene was only panicked for a moment, and then calmly smoothed things over: "I don't know who is taking the photo... Is it a journalist friend at the scene? Don't be impatient, this photo is indeed very precious, you can wait. Then you can directly take a photocopy and use a flash, but you can’t take a slide, right?”

Among the sparse laughter from the guests, Conan's ears caught a slight sound.

What is that, the sound that pierces the air quickly...

Where did it come from? What is it?

With his nerves high, he turned his head desperately to find the source of the sky-piercing sound effect.

...above?

"Crack——"

"Dang Cang——"

The crisp and fine cracking sound, together with the sound of metal objects falling to the ground, seemed like countless crystals falling to the ground and shattering, and the crisp clanging sounds formed a short and gorgeous symphony.

The entire audience was shocked, and the host's words were completely interrupted.

"What's wrong?!"

"What's the movement...Did something fall?"

"Turn on the lights, turn on the lights quickly!"

The last voice came from the Megure Police Department and Takagi Wataru who shouted loudly.

They pushed aside the guests on both sides and tried to get closer to the source of the sound. This sound was too ominous when it was clear that someone was going to be attacked.

Conan ran two steps towards that position, and suddenly his face was covered by a soft cloth hood, and his vision went dark.

He was so nervous that he trembled with fright. He raised his hand and grabbed the thing that flew into his face.

Is this... a handkerchief?

"Pah, pah, pah", there was a continuous sound of switches, and the lights in the venue turned on again with this series of sounds, softly illuminating the luxuriously decorated banquet again.

It’s just that the brightest one can no longer shine.

"Ah ah--"

As the guests turned to look at the audience, several shrill female voices pierced everyone's eardrums.

The huge crystal lamp has fallen from the sky. The small glass products are crystal clear, reflecting the fire like diamonds, like a rain of petals made of crystal, tightly covering the lower part of the eyes. The eyes are wide open, and the expression is extremely frightened. Swallowing Shigehiko's corpse.
