The Phantom Thief of Heart! But Conan

Chapter 704 Kitagawa Yusuke: Let’s discuss our own issues

Secretary Sawaguchi, who had a business smile on his face, immediately recognized the visitor’s highly recognizable attire, and greeted him with a friendly smile: “This guest, as for the observation elevator…”

"Ah, Yusuke-kun——"

Before the secretary could finish speaking, Suzuki Sonoko's penetrating scream penetrated several people's eardrums with a strong presence, causing the elementary school students who were caught off guard to cover their ears.

But her attention obviously could no longer care about these details, and she rushed to Kitagawa Yusuke in three steps at a time.

Kitagawa Yusuke, who was much taller than her, silently lowered his gaze and looked at her tolerantly: "Hello, Ms. Suzuki, what a coincidence."

Suzuki Sonoko watched his long eyelashes cover his pupils as his gaze lowered, and the melancholy and picturesque temperament of a beautiful man could not be concealed. She felt that she was about to collapse with happiness as she was being watched like this.

"The kimono is so suitable..." In order not to ruin the good impression at this moment, Suzuki Sonoko automatically filtered out Kitagawa Yusuke's speech, "If I had known earlier, I should have sponsored you a set in advance. If you could wear this suit, If you accept the award and then give interviews to the media..."

Then this set of appearances that fully demonstrates the advantages of Kitagawa Yusuke's appearance will be preserved by photographers, and there are even many pages of news reports that can be kept as souvenirs.

Hey, what a pity. Why didn’t you think of this idea earlier?

"That's not necessary. I'm not used to dressing like this."

Karasawa shook his head and firmly rejected Suzuki Sonoko's proposal.

Doesn't he know this guy well? If he shows any signs of ambiguity, Suzuki Sonoko will probably give him a whole wardrobe of kimonos the next time they meet.

Anyway, it's not that you can't wear them, but wearing the raised footbags and clogs is a bit of acrobatics, and Karasawa doesn't want to torment himself like this if it's not necessary.

"Just treat it as formal wear. In fact, there is nothing inappropriate about wearing a kimono when going out every day..." Maori Ran, who came over and was about to pull away her best friend who was about to stick to Kitagawa Yusuke, persuaded her in turn.

It has to be said that in terms of aesthetics related to appearance, Suzuki Sonoko ranks second and no one can rank first. Kitagawa Yusuke's temperament is indeed very suitable for kimonos. After wearing elegant clothes, he has the air of a celebrity.

The elementary school students who were waiting around the machine with great interest soon gathered around Kitagawa Yusuke and began to chatter.

The attraction of looking out for the Phantom Thief is still greater than a machine that lets you see what it looks like.

"Brother Kitagawa, come and visit too!"

"Did you also receive an invitation?"

"Or if you have something to do, you have to come here..."

Several members of the Young Detective Team spoke with excitement in their tone. It was obvious that they were asking him whether he was here for normal fun, or whether he was here to watch out for the Phantom Thief and punish the bad guys.

If it's the latter, they seem to have another chance to follow the Phantom Thieves!

"Mr. Kitagawa is very popular with children." Hara Jiaming was not annoyed when holding the photo that no one liked. He just laughed and joked, "He is more attractive than a nerdy engineer like me."

Haibara Ai, who was not surprised by Kitagawa Yusuke's appearance, shook her head slightly and took the photo from Hara Jiaming's hand: "Thank you, I'll hold it for them."

She lowered her head, looked at the calculated appearance of Ayumi Yoshida in the future on the photo paper on the first page, and narrowed her eyes.

"Noah," she whispered in a small breath.

The mobile phone placed in her personal pocket vibrated, and it was obvious that Noah had received her signal.

So Haiyuan Ai took out his mobile phone with a normal expression, and while saying "You will be so beautiful in the future, Ayumi", he naturally turned on the mobile phone camera and took the first few photos.

It only took Noah, whose computing power had been greatly improved, a few seconds for the feedback message to pop up on her phone screen.

[Ark: The calculation is more accurate. This system poses a great threat to you, Ms. Shiho. 】

Sure enough.

Haihara Ai put her phone back in her pocket and handed the photos to her classmates who were attracted by her words. On the contrary, she felt much more relaxed.

Noah has already grasped the situation, so even if he and Kudo use this machine to calculate, Noah will find a way to intervene and there will be no problem.

"The building is not officially in operation yet. To facilitate the reception of everyone today, we are opening a special VIP elevator, so permission is required to open it. Mr. Kitagawa, let me take you upstairs first." Secretary Sawaguchi walked to Karasawa Around him, despite the chaotic scene, he spoke firmly and continued what he had not finished.

She is Mio Tokiwa's secretary, and she is very clear about today's reception work and schedule. This young man named Kitagawa Yusuke is also the key person Mio Tokiwa needs to entertain today, and she does not dare to neglect him.

"Are they also guests invited by Senior Sister?" Tang Ze pointed to the noisy children without answering her words.

"The chairman invited Mr. Detective Maori, and they are Mr. Maori's family members." Sawaguchi answered with a smile.

"Oh, it seems that this senior sister wants to get to know a lot of people." Karasawa, who is in Kitagawa Yusuke's state, is very outspoken, and when he opens his mouth, he makes a blunt complaint.

Zeguchi, who relied on his professionalism to maintain his smile, could not answer the question. He just stayed in place and continued to smile awkwardly but politely.

What could she say? Regardless of whether she was familiar with him or not, Kitagawa Yusuke was Mio Tokiwa's fellow junior, and his relationship was much closer than hers to the chairman. Kitagawa Yusuke spoke inappropriately, and it was not a topic she could participate in.

"Since they are also senior sister's guests, let's take them up with us. The teacher's conversation should have ended." Tangze nodded, directly cutting off the engineer's opportunity to invite Conan and Haibara Ai to test the machine again.

This engineer has some subtle connections with the organization. He allows the faces of two unlucky children who took medicine to be scanned by the machine, and maybe the data will be stored in the database.

It’s better not to let such an accident happen.

"Oh, oh, okay..." Sawaguchi quickly glanced at the time, calculated that it seemed to be about the same, and then reluctantly responded.

This young man was so skillful and natural in teaching others how to do things that Secretary Zeguchi was stunned for a moment, unable to realize who was in charge.

Obviously he is just a student who has a connection with the chairman in art...

Secretary Zeguchi, who secretly cursed in his heart, could only follow the instructions and lead a group of people to bid farewell to Yuan Jiaming and walk into the elevator. It was not until the last person stepped into the spacious and bright elevator car that he quietly breathed a sigh of relief when he did not hear the overload alarm.

Including Kitagawa Yusuke and herself, there are 10 people here. The VIP viewing elevator with such a splendid decoration is obviously not designed to carry such a large number of passengers.

It would be nice to be able to pull it up...

"Just take the elevator straight to the 75th floor..." Suzuki Sonoko stretched out her hand and tentatively touched the outer wall that was so transparent that it seemed to be empty because it was wiped too clean. As the elevator rose, she couldn't help but feel amazed.

Looking directly at the building in front of her, she slowly disappeared under her feet. The visual impact of this straight rise was so intuitive that she couldn't help but be surprised.

The steel jungle of the city slowly turned into a shrub-like decoration. Farther away, the hazy Mount Fuji in the background unfolded on the skyline. Several people took out their mobile phones in unison and began to take photos and even record videos.

Is this the advantage of building super high-rise buildings? The view is so beautiful.

"Yes, this is a VIP-only elevator. Except for the concert hall on the 66th floor, there is no other external location where you can use it." Secretary Sawaguchi nodded and introduced them to them.

"The scenery is so beautiful. It looks like this when viewed from a high place..." Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya couldn't help but "wow" several times and leaned on the glass with great interest.

"Yeah, it's like we're getting closer to heaven step by step." Yoshida Ayumi thought of the unstinting praise for this building in recent advertising slogans and news. All these descriptions changed after seeing the real scene. For heartfelt recognition.

Karasawa, who stood thoughtfully in the middle of the elevator, slightly blocking his view of Mouri Kogoro who was about to slide to the ground because of his fear of heights, heard this and couldn't help but take a closer look at her.

They are worthy of being one of the Death God groups, and they are quick to speak and insert flags.

The fast-moving elevator quickly reached the 75th floor. Secretary Sawaguchi took the lead and walked out of the elevator and walked into the venue with huge windows in all directions.

"We are preparing for the banquet later. It may be a bit chaotic and funny."

"No, no..." Mori Kogoro, who couldn't wait to rush out of the elevator, breathed a sigh of relief, and then quickly became polite, "The preparations are so solemn, which shows that Senior Sister Tokiwa pays enough attention to the guests."

"That's great of you to think so."

At the first sight of Mio Tokiwa, who was wearing business clothes that highlighted her figure and looked completely capable and elite, Secretary Sawaguchi breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly walked over with a group of people.

"Junior Tokiwa, long time no see!" Mouri Kogoro immediately spotted Mio Tokiwa who was too beautiful to be in her late forties, and actively reached out to shake her hand.

Although I won’t have any inappropriate thoughts, it is human nature to want to get close to a beautiful woman when I see her!

"Senior, thank you for coming all the way." Mio Tokiwa shook Mouri Kogoro's hand enthusiastically.

Mao Lilan, who was following behind, saw that the two people were holding hands together and shaking them around for more than ten seconds without letting go. She immediately stepped over and said, "Hello, I am Mao Lilan. I want to say hello to you on behalf of my mother."

Many relatives and friends, let alone outsiders, didn't know much about the official divorce of Mouri Kogoro and Fei Yingli. At this time, Mao Lilan was even less likely to mention it, and she came over calmly.

"Let me introduce to you, this is Suzuki Sonoko, this is Edogawa Conan, Dr. Agasa, Haibara Ai..."

Before the greetings were over, Mio Tokiwa, who was suddenly forced to stand there and listen to her name the dishes, was also embarrassed. Seeing this group of men, women and children, bringing their whole family to the spring outing, she couldn't help but feel embarrassed for a while. Know how to express.

Just bring your daughter with you, why are there still an old man and so many children? Is this an amusement park...

Mio Tokiwa, who was silent in her heart, politely listened to this series of unflattering introductions, looked at the person behind her, and started to introduce them politely.

It's okay to show the level of guests you entertain. When negotiating with Mouri Kogoro later, it can be used as a bargaining chip to prove your status.

"This is my painting teacher, Mr. Kisaragi Hosui." Mio Tokiwa looked at the three people behind him and gave priority to introducing the serious-faced Kisaragi Hosui.

Seniority and age are here. Although the weight of Kisaragi Honsui may not be as important as that of Councilor Ohgi, even if it is to show respect for her teacher, she must start with Kisaragi Honsui.

"Yusuke, come here." Kisaragi Hosui glanced at Mio Tokiwa's carefully decorated makeup, nodded lightly, and looked directly at Kitagawa Yusuke behind them, who was walking a few steps behind them, and stretched out his hand to wave. Down.

"Teacher, I'm here." Karasawa stood still in front of Kisaragi Hosui, looked at Mio Tokiwa, who suddenly turned his attention, and bent down slightly, "Hello, Senior Sister Tokiwa, I am Yusuke Kitagawa."

"Ah, junior brother..." Tokiwa Mio let go of Mouri Kogoro's hand and walked over with a smile, about to have a few words with Kitagawa Yusuke.

"You're so slow. Have you never worn a kimono before?" Ruyue Fengshui ignored the thoughts of this incompetent disciple and scolded him lightly at first.

"Well, I'm sorry, teacher, I'm not used to wearing clogs." Tangze, who was carrying a heavy load, told the truth.

"You need to get used to it. Kimono is a very suitable formal attire for you. It is best to wear it when attending important occasions in the future."

"Huh? Is it because I didn't feel comfortable wearing school uniform when I received the award before?"

"You've made me look like that. If you don't know, you might think I'm abusing you. Come on, lower your head."

Several people nearby looked at each other in awe as they watched the tall Kitagawa Yusuke meekly bend his knees and back, allowing Kisaragi Hosui to put a square hat on his head.

Look at the serious look on Kisaragi Hosui's nonchalant attitude towards Mio Tokiwa, and then look at him and Kitagawa Yusuke who seem to be equally serious in speech, but no matter how they sound, they sound like the attitude of an elder talking to a junior. It is clear at a glance how distant and distant they are.

Although this is a very normal situation, and I know that Kitagawa Yusuke, who has won the grand prize at this age, should be the teacher's preferred disciple everywhere, but in front of so many guests, this is completely unfavorable to Tokiwa Mio kept her face.

The master and disciple were completely unconcerned with the gazes around them and remained calm. Ruyue Fengshui even stretched out her hand to straighten the apprentice's coat, which had slipped while walking, and motioned for him to stand next to her.

Tokiwa Mio's smile froze a bit on her face, but Kitagawa Yusuke had already stood silently behind Kisaragi Hosui. It was no longer realistic to go around the teacher and talk to this young child.

She suddenly realized that Kisaragi Hosui agreed to bring Kitagawa Yusuke to see her, most likely not to support her as a disciple, but to show different treatment and draw a clear line with herself.

This stubborn old guy...

"Oh, yes, this young man who has become famous recently is also a disciple of Mr. Kisaragi Hosui. I haven't even seen you introduce it to us, Mio." Oki Iwamatsu, whose face was drunk and flushed, suddenly laughed. stand up.

"Resident Ohgi..." Mio Tokiwa couldn't help but feel embarrassed.

"And you, you are that sleepy Mouri Kogoro, right?" Oki Iwamatsu opened his tongue slightly, obviously drunk, and pointed at Moori Kogoro, "That's interesting. You are her senior, This is her junior, so you can be considered senior brothers now, right? "

Not only was he suddenly given a strange nickname, but he was also inexplicably demoted a generation: "..."

"Ah? What Kitagawa-kun said..." Hearing what he said, Mao Lilan, who was a generation behind her peers for no reason, was startled.

After this, at least in this venue, should I call myself Kitagawa Yusuke... uh...

"It's okay, Miss Lan, we can discuss our own matters." But at this moment, Kitagawa Yusuke nodded to Mao Lilan calmly.

What do you mean? You mean you really want to be considered a peer with me, right? !

"Just kidding, just kidding, this is Representative Ohgi from Nishitama City. He also put in a lot of hard work for the completion of the building..." Mio Tokiwa quickly interrupted the weird atmosphere, and couldn't help but regret a little today. The teacher was called.

Whether it's Teacher Kisaragi or this cheap junior brother, they are really embarrassing...
