A Sorcerer in the Detective World

Paris, France, 12 noon local time.

In front of a cake shop.

Lupine the Third was wearing a red suit, with his hands in his pockets. He walked into the store with Daisuke Jigen and sat down next to the bar.

Elegant Western classical music was playing in the cake shop. Inside the bar, a pastry chef was sitting on a stool, looking worriedly at the things in his hands.

Lupine III and Daisuke Jigen sat lazily on the chairs, ordered two cups of coffee and then two cakes. After eating some briefly, Lupine III smiled and said to the female pastry chef at the bar: "... Every time I come to Paris recently, I want to come here and try the coffee and carefully made cakes made by you, Ms. Natsumi Kasaka, and the taste is indeed first-class..."

After Lupine III finished speaking, Kasaka Natsumi quickly stood up, bowed slightly and said: "...No, you two are really exaggerating..."

Before Kasaka Natsumi finished speaking, Daisuke Jigen also reached out and pressed his hat, giving a rare compliment:

"...Yes, Miss Kasaka's craftsmanship is indeed good, and the environment here is also very good..."

Lupine III took a sip of coffee: "Daisuke, let's come over tomorrow! By the way, call Fujiko and Goemon, and let's try Miss Kasaka's craftsmanship together..."

Natsumi Kasaka was slightly stunned when she heard Lupine's words, and then immediately said: "...I'm really sorry, if you two want me to serve you tomorrow, I'm afraid I can't do anything. I encountered something, and I plan to take leave and go back to Japan. It may take half a month before I can come back..."

Lupine III was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and asked curiously: "...Miss Kasaka, are you going back to Japan? What are you doing back in Japan?"

"This..." Kasaka Natsumi hesitated, and then said, "...about a month ago, my grandmother passed away. When I was packing up her belongings, I found some strange torn pieces of paper, notes, and... There is a key..."

"...I didn't pay attention at first, but Mr. Sawabe, the dean of my Japanese family, called me just now and said that the Suzuki Foundation found the same pattern as the one on the torn paper at the art exhibition held by the Suzuki Foundation at the Osaka Art Museum next week. The artwork has the same name, called 'Egg of Memories'..."

"Mr. Sawabe said that the 'Memory Egg' is most likely a family heirloom left by my great-grandfather and great-grandmother. My mother seemed to have been looking for it, so I have to go back and take a look..."

"'Egg of Memories'?" Lupine III was stunned when he heard this. He looked at Kasaka Natsumi carefully, as if he remembered something, and then looked at the thing in Kasaka Natsumi's hand seriously and asked, "... …Excuse me, can I see the two pieces of paper in your hand?”

"Of course." Kasaka Natsumi handed the two torn pieces of paper to Lupine III. Lupine III only glanced at it, and then said softly:

"...the Easter egg named 'Memory'...the castle in Yokosuka..."

Listening to Lupine III's words, Natsumi Kasaka was stunned for a moment: "...How do you know about Yokosuka Castle..."

Lupine III did not answer. He stared at the piece of paper for a while, then stood up, returned the piece of paper to Natsumi Kasaka, and said with a smile:

"Miss Kasaka, thank you for your hospitality and thank you for telling us this news. By the way, you are as beautiful and beautiful as your mother..."

After Lupine III finished speaking, he turned around and walked out of the cake shop. Daisuke Jigen also stood up and followed behind, leaving a confused Natsumi Kasaka.

Lupine the Third and Daisuke Jigen walked out of the cake shop. Daisuke Jigen dug into his pockets and asked casually: "...Lupine, do you have a new goal?"

"Yes, I have to go to Japan to get the 'Egg of Memory'..." Lupine III suddenly smiled, with a rare seriousness on the monkey's face:

"...To a woman who once wanted to roam the world with me..."

"Well...that's it." Jigen Daisuke suddenly realized, and then looked at Lupine III with squinting eyes, "...so is this your romantic debt again?"

Lupine the Third listened to Daisuke Jigen's words,

He staggered and almost fell, then scratched his head and squinted his eyes: "...Hahaha! You can't say that! I'm just a very close friend..."

After a pause, Lupine III whispered again as if he was nostalgic:

"...She originally said that if I could help her find the 'Memory Egg' before she was twenty-five years old, she would leave everything and go with me. Unfortunately, I didn't do it..."

"...Now, I have to send the 'Egg of Memory' there...even if she has passed away..."

Damn it! This is romantic debt, okay? !

Daisuke Jigen glanced at Lupine, stretched out his hand to press the hat on his head, and reminded: "...But, Lupine, this art exhibition belongs to the Suzuki family. Have you forgotten about the 'Soul of the Ocean' before?" ? That spiritualist is not a fuel-efficient lamp..."

"Uh..." Lupine the Third thought of a certain cheating exorcist, and the corner of his mouth twitched twice, and then said uncertainly, "...I think the reason why we were targeted by the exorcist before was entirely because of the exterminator. The spiritual master is the owner of the 'Ocean Soul'. This time, our target, the 'Egg of Memories', is the treasure of the Suzuki Consortium. The spiritual master also has a good relationship with us, so he should not take action..."

"Well..." Daisuke Jigen was silent for a while before he said:

"……maybe."

…

Nine o'clock in the evening.

Suzuki's exhibition room.

After Shu Yunwen and others had dinner, the Suzuki family's servants had already placed the artworks to be exhibited in the exhibition room for Shu Yunwen and others to appreciate.

Shu Yunwen walked around twice in front of a pile of artworks, and finally stood in front of the display stand with the "Egg of Memories".

In front of the booth, Tsukamoto Sumi and Loli Ai were listening to Sonoko introducing the "Egg of Memories"——

The shell of this "egg" is completely green, with some strange patterns on it. After opening the "egg", inside is a golden statue of the last emperor and his family reading a book together. In addition, there is a mechanism inside the "egg". After turning the key, the golden doll will appear to turn the book. The workmanship is ingenious.

Shu Yunwen stood aside and watched for a while, then nodded and said: "...This 'Egg of Memories' is quite interesting!"

After Shu Yunwen finished speaking, Suzuki Ayako walked to Shu Yunwen and said with a smile: "...Master Yunwen, if you like the 'Egg of Memory', I will give it to you..."

"Huh? Give it to me?" Shu Yunwen was stunned when he heard this, a little confused.

Suzuki Ayako whispered again: "... Mr. Robert's matter is our own decision..."

After hearing Suzuki Ayako's words, Shu Yunwen immediately understood——

have to! This is the Suzuki family's apology for what happened to Robert! Even though the person speaking was Suzuki Ayako, the people who actually made the decision were definitely Suzuki Shiro and his wife!

However, haven’t we all said it doesn’t matter and don’t care, so why do we still insist on giving things away?

Shu Yunwen complained a few words in his heart, then looked at the "Egg of Memories" again, thought for a moment, and said with a smile: "...Okay, I will accept the 'Egg of Memories', thank you..."

This thing was brought by the Suzuki family as an apology. If he didn't accept it, the Suzuki family might think that he was still caring about Robert, so it would be better to accept it! ~

Besides, this "memory egg" is indeed quite interesting. It seems like a good idea to take it home as a collection! ~
