Conan: Another Famous Detective

Chapter 538 The Last Supper

"Good news?" Everyone looked at the person who spoke in confusion.

Yu Gongming rested his elbows on the table and crossed his hands in front of his nose. Seeing everyone's eyes turned to him, he smiled and said: "I asked a friend before I came here. If I don't call him before noon tomorrow, , he would immediately call the police, and directly contact a police officer whom I know.”

"The police will naturally send people to pick us up by then, so you don't have to worry about not being able to leave here."

Motegi Harushi's eyes lit up: "Oh? I didn't expect you to be so thoughtful?"

Yu Gongming snapped his fingers: "After all, that kind of invitation makes people uncomfortable, and it is in such a remote place. In addition, there are rumors about the tragedy at Dusk Annex many years ago, so it is always right to be more careful. Isn’t it?”

"Oops! It seems that the plan of some hidden guy is about to go to waste!" Gunda Ikumi looked at the purple-robed figure on the main seat with a joking look on his face.

The figure still sat motionless, showing no intention of replying.

Motegi Harushi stood up suddenly, came to the purple-robed man, and sneered: "What? Your plan has been beaten, and you have nothing to say all of a sudden? Let me see who you are!"

As he spoke, he lifted up the purple robe on the figure.

The purple robe faded away, and the figure's appearance was revealed to everyone.

Everyone's expressions have changed more or less.

Under the purple robe, there was actually a dummy. A loudspeaker was installed above the dummy's mouth, where the nose and eyes were originally.

Motegi Harushi said "cut": "It turns out to be just a dummy with a loudspeaker installed!"

"Who on earth made such an outrageous prank!?" Mouri Kogoro said with a dissatisfied look on his face.

"Dad..." Xiaolan looked at Mouri Kogoro with some doubts. Didn't she already speculate that this invitation might be from Kaitou Kidd?

Conan, who was sitting next to him, moved his eyes slightly, and then took Xiaolan's hand.

Xiaolan turned her head and saw Conan shaking his head slightly towards her.

Xiaolan blinked, then seemed to think of something, and said nothing more.

"Oh? I didn't expect that the famous Mouri Kogoro didn't know about it?" Gunda Ikumi looked at Moori Kogoro with some fun.

"What?" Mouri Kogoro looked confused.

"Isn't it clearly written in the signature?" Motegi Harushi smiled.

Afterwards, a group of detectives began to analyze the signature of the invitation letter. After the analysis of the last few people was combined, they got the final answer - Kaitou Kidd!

"So, it's Kaitou Kid who invited us here?" Mouri Kogoro confirmed.

"It should be right." Zhu Shan, the superior, said in a deep voice: "He called us seven famous detectives here. I'm afraid he wants to test our wisdom with us and bet his life on the treasure he stole before."

Gunda Ikumi looked around and smiled with an unclear meaning: "Perhaps he is observing our every move somewhere in this annex now? Otherwise, there wouldn't be strict installations in every corner. Surveillance cameras.”

After hearing this, everyone looked around and above their heads, and sure enough they found a lot of surveillance equipment.

At this time, there was a knock on the door of the restaurant, and then the maid Aki Ishihara came in pushing the dining cart: "Now serve appetizers for everyone."

"It looks like the last supper is about to begin!" Gunda Ikumi smiled.

While talking, Aki Ishihara was already pushing the dining cart towards the dining table.

However, she did not start serving the food from Gunda Ikumi, who was sitting at the outermost edge of the table, but continued walking to the inside.

As they passed by Qian Jian, the old detective suddenly asked: "Miss Aki, has the order of serving the dishes been arranged by your master in advance?"

Aki Ishihara nodded: "Yes, the master asked me to serve the dishes clockwise starting from Mr. Hakuba."

Hearing this, Qianjian Jiedai narrowed his eyes: "Really, this game has just begun, and we have to eat this last supper. I really don't understand what he means."

"Haha! If you are worried about being poisoned, don't worry. I made these things myself." Dashang Zhushan said with a smile.

"It's not just the ingredients." Bai Ma Tan said calmly: "These cutlery, forks, spoons and other tableware, as well as wine glasses and coffee cups are all placed on the table in advance, and all of us are seated according to the name tags."

He held his cheek with his right hand and frowned slightly: "Although I don't think Kaitou Kidd will commit murder, but if we want to test our abilities and make some jokes that are not funny, it is still entirely possible."

"I think it would be better if we use our own handkerchiefs to wipe all these tableware."

Motegi Harushi suddenly smiled: "That makes sense. I don't want to follow his pace all the time. How about we make fists to decide the seats?"

"But what if you are unlucky and happen to encounter poisonous tableware?" Mouri Kogoro asked.

Motegi Harushi shrugged: "Then I can only blame myself for my bad luck. I will lament my luck on the road to hell."

Maori Xiaowu's face darkened.

"If that's the case, then let's change places. This is actually harmless, right? The master has bad intentions, so why should we follow the rules?" Yu Gongming said with a smile.

"Haha! I like this, so let's do some boxing!" Motegi Harushi laughed.

Afterwards, a group of people started punching each other, and the winning party had priority in choosing a seat. If there was another dispute about the same seat, then punching would continue to determine the ownership.

In this way, several people rearranged their seats, and the order was completely disrupted.

However, Conan and Xiaolan, Yu Gongming and Mengyu sat together without any hesitation, and the other detectives did not have the wisdom to insist on [taking care of] Conan's Xiaolan, as well as Yugongming and Mengyu, who were obviously lovers. Separate words.

After sitting down again, several people wiped all the tableware in front of them, and Aki Ishihara continued to serve the dishes.

Although the seats had been messed up, Ishihara Aki still served the dishes starting from Hakuba Tan according to the original owner's instructions.

The dishes were served one after another. A few people were a little cautious at first, but after discovering that there was no emergency, the atmosphere gradually relaxed.

"Hey! I didn't expect Mr. Ogami's cooking skills to be so superb! He really deserves his reputation as a gourmet detective!" Mouri Kogoro swallowed a piece of cutlet with a satisfied look on his face and couldn't help but admired.

Upon hearing this, Zhu Shan's face was filled with contentment: "Well, if you want to satisfy my tongue, which is not easy to please, I have to put more effort into cooking."

Gunda Ikumi wiped the corners of her mouth elegantly with a napkin and chuckled: "It seems that we were a little too worried before."

"No, you are wrong." Motegi Harushi smiled and shook his head.

"Have you all eaten?" The figure at the main seat suddenly spoke again.

Motegi Harushi looked at Gunda Ikumi and shrugged: "Look, didn't the protagonist speak?"
