The Phantom Thief of Heart! But Conan

The absent-minded Pu Siqinglan was not listening at all to the discussion of the story of the Egg of Memory by the people at the table. Whether it was Conan pointing out that the broken pages were not from the same piece of paper, or discovering the lens hidden underneath when touching it, her The reactions were all very bland, and it was obvious that the focus was not on the matter at hand.

She had been observing Tang Ze vaguely, or more precisely, observing Tang Ze's right eye.

The lens found by the police and detectives was not only shattered, but also showed a huge impact. As a professional gunman, she dared to judge with confidence that the lens had passed through the center of the lens, causing the glass to shatter and create such a huge hole. The impact definitely comes from bullets.

Those are lenses that almost stick to the face and are so close to the eyeballs.

When it shatters, even if the wearer is lucky enough to avoid the bullet's lethality, the shattered lens alone is enough for a person to drink a pot.

But Tangze's face was so smooth and smooth. Not to mention wounds, there were not even a single scratch. And no matter how you looked at it, the skin texture on his face was very natural. It didn't look like he had used any extra makeup at all. The props have modified the original wounds...

"...Oh! So, maybe your great-grandfather made not just a memory egg, but two eggs!"

She took advantage of the lights in the room to be turned off and everyone's attention to be distracted. While she was paying attention to Karasawa's movements, Mouri Kogoro knocked his palm hard and said in a sudden tone: "The design of these two eggs is actually very special." Differently, the reason why there are no gems on the Egg of Memories may be that your great-grandfather changed hands with the gems on the egg after escaping to Japan with it, thus saving enough funds to build Yokogashi Castle, and then transferred another one to it. The egg is hidden in the castle..."

It was a very reasonable inference. Even the current heir of the Kasaka family, Natsumi Kasaka, sat up straight instinctively and couldn't help but follow his guess.

"Oh, that is to say, in this one hidden in the castle, maybe the gems are still preserved?" Ganjiang Yi, who had been listening to the wall for a long time, couldn't sit still, and leaned forward to hold Natsumi Kasaka's hand. On the back of the sofa, "The Emperor's Easter egg has been stored until now and has never been seen. Moreover, it may contain more information, and the gems are all intact... Tsk, one billion, no, considering that it may be It’s the last one, 1.5 billion or even higher, it’s possible…”

"Well, after all, he is a craftsman who helped the tsar create such an exquisite mechanism. It is normal for him to design some secret passages in his castle..." Suzuki Shiro touched his chin and nodded slowly.

Conan, who was just observing the egg of memories back and forth, caught this key word and raised his head keenly.

Um? Well, secret passages, castles, noble craftsmen who fled from Russia and may be carrying expensive treasures...

Conan, who always felt that these keywords seemed a bit familiar, also became thoughtful.

"So, Kidd is eyeing the egg of memories. Could it be that he is not looking for this one, but looking for the missing one? The number of gems inlaid on this egg may be enough for him to commit crimes several times... "Hattori Heiji, who had never experienced the horror of the castle, nodded slowly.

Gan Jiang nodded excitedly and muttered keywords like "There are also bonuses from Kaitou Kidd and the story" and "Hype the market value". When he turned his head, he saw Ryuu Samkawa standing next to him. After taking pictures of the castle reflected on the wall, he held up the camera to capture a circle of enthusiastic people, then closed the lens cover without interest and leaned against the wall behind him without speaking.

This guy who appears to be a photographer is actually half an antiquities dealer who is hyping up collectibles. If others don't know, how can he not know that he has met Samchuanlong several times? Hearing so many exciting keywords, why does he have such an expression? Could it be said that the cultural relics this time are fraudulent?

No, it could also be a trick to pretend to give up to lower the price...

As Natsumi Kasaka took out the complex-shaped brass key from her bag, except for a few people who were distracted, the warm atmosphere in the entire room reached its peak in an instant.

Sensing that the next situation was serious, and wanting to try to communicate more with the Suzuki family on the road, Kasaka Natsumi had no reason to refuse, so she spoke naturally and invited Mouri Kogoro and several other detectives to accompany her. Go to the castle to put an end to this treasure hunt.

"Please let me come along!"

"Please, I also want to witness this moment..."

"Of course, let's all come together." Natsumi Kasaka adjusted her sitting posture a little uneasily, but in the end she maintained her ladylike demeanor and nodded with a smile.

Keenly aware of the change in the atmosphere, Conan frowned and took in everyone's appearance one by one. However, he was slightly stunned when he saw Han Chuanlong who had put away the camera and walked out.

Why does it feel like this guy is in a completely different state than when I first met him...

"Isn't Mr. Hanchuan in high spirits? Oh, I probably know the reason."

"Huh?" Conan, who just mentioned it casually, got an unexpected answer and couldn't help turning his head, "How did you find out about it? Could it be that he..."

"Stop! Don't make wild guesses." Mao Lilan stopped the guess he was about to blurt out with a shudder, "I didn't ask, I heard it when he told Yuanzi. What it was, because I witnessed it in the banquet hall Such a unique night of the ceremony opened my mind. Now I want to be an objective recorder and prepare to study photography or something... It was quite sincere. Even Yuanzi was moved and agreed to accept a few questions about the egg of memories. Interview…”

"What a strange statement." Conan made a strange expression, "Except for a power outage and fireworks, nothing happened that night."

"Who knows? Maybe art workers are like this." Mao Lilan pressed her cheek, equally confused, "Didn't Kitagawa-kun also say that he had new insights and had to rush back to complete the painting? He said hello and left. ?..."

Tangze, who was walking over with a drink, heard these words and struggled to suppress his smile.

That's not true. If he didn't run away, the Zhongsen Police Department, who had been knocked unconscious by the Phantom Thieves and felt that he had lost his master, came back and the fake skin on his face would be damned if he didn't get pulled.

"It's also possible that he is an anonymous fan of Kaitou Kidd. He came to the event just to watch Kidd's live performance up close. Now because the other person's life or death is uncertain, he is not in the mood..." Karasawa made a nonsense statement without blinking. Reason, give them the glass in your hand.

"Your reason is even more unreliable than his." Conan's eyebrows twitched, "Besides, I think Kidd should be fine."

"Really? Even Baima said that he seemed to have been hit from a distance, fell suddenly or something..." Mao Lilan was not sure, with a slightly worried expression on his face, "What if something really happened?" , the Phantom Thief was not caught by detectives or police, but fell into the hands of some killer, that would be a pity. "

"What are you discussing, Kaitou Kidd? Kidd-sama will be fine!" Suzuki Sonoko's energetic voice came from far away. Suzuki Sonoko, who led several people over, sat down directly next to Mao Lilan, "Police They also took the glasses away, saying they thought if he was injured, they might be able to extract a DNA sample or something."

"So, have you extracted it?" Mao Lilan asked curiously.

"Of course not."

Hakuba Tan's voice came from the cabin below. After a while, he walked up to someone who didn't know where to study for a long time, and sat on the empty side of Karasawa's bench before Hattori Heiji.

Hattori Heiji glanced sideways at him before reluctantly sitting down next to him, making the originally very spacious dining table very crowded.

"...It is true that no extract was found." Hattori Heiji continued to explain, "The forensic department has been working hard for a long time. Not to mention tiny blood droplets, not even trace samples of skin keratin or the like were found. What is special about it? It’s difficult to successfully extract things made from materials.”

"So, it's possible that Kaitou Kidd wasn't even injured? Oh my gosh, it's incredible. He was hit directly in the glasses by a gun and it's okay... It's so legendary..."

This was what Urasi Qinglan, who looked very elegant in high heels, heard when she followed Natsumi Kasaka to the restaurant.

She pursed her lips, glanced at Tang Ze who was surrounded by young people with fear, then looked at the two detectives, and quickly looked away.

Whether intentionally or not, there are always many people around this guy. She has never been able to find a chance to contact him alone. Now, she must focus on the Egg of Memories first.

Natsumi Kasaka herself has Russian ancestry, and has a certain relationship with the craftsman who made the Egg of Memory.

She wanted to believe that this girl might have more secrets hidden in her body, and that the legacy from the Romanov dynasty might be about to blow upon her. Of course, she couldn't give up easily at this time...

But now she was avoiding Tang Ze, but Tang Ze wanted to take the initiative to touch her.

So Karasawa pretended to notice the two of them and said hello. Almost immediately, the lively Suzuki Sonoko waved her hand and called them over.

"No wonder Miss Kasaka's Japanese sounds a bit accented. You have stayed in Paris for so many years."

"Ah, yes, after speaking French for too long, not only Japanese, but sometimes my English accent is off track." Natsumi Kasaka smiled and nodded, "I went to France in college and started learning baking, and I basically stayed there after that. I'm in Paris. Language is easily affected by the environment, there's no way..."

"I see. However, since your great-grandmother is Russian, you should also be of mixed race, haven't you learned Russian?" Bai Ma Tan asked, looking at her face.

"After all, our family has been settling in Japan since my great-grandfather returned to China, and I have never been exposed to Russian. My grandmother does speak some Russian, but she only heard it at home when she was very young, and she can barely speak some daily conversations." Kasaka Natsumi shook her head slightly, "Except for the color of my eyes and hair, I basically look Asian."

Suzuki Sonoko leaned closer and said, "Yes, you have gray eyes. Speaking of which, Miss Pu Si Qinglan's eyes are also gray..."

"Because I also have a bit of Slavic blood." Pu Siqinglan, whose mentality was a bit broken after being tested back and forth by Tangze, seemed to be fixing the combo, and reflexively began to answer, "China is a multi-ethnic country, and I am not The Han people, the largest group, are somewhat special..."

"Speaking of Chinese..."

Tang Ze put down the cup and just raised his head, Pu Siqinglan immediately raised his palm and spoke much faster.

"Karazawa-kun, your Chinese level has improved, almost to the level of a native speaker. I think you really don't need to ask me more. Just like Miss Kasaka, I have lived abroad for too long, and my mother tongue has deteriorated a lot. ”

Ignoring the fact that Karasawa is Kaitou Kidd and may have special abilities, before discovering this problem, she was already so annoyed by Karasawa's yin and yang combos that her mouth moved faster than her brain.

She shuddered when she recalled the experience of being harassed back and forth by Tang Ze when visiting the spot.

She should have realized that there was definitely something wrong with Tangze's identity.

Under normal circumstances, how could someone stay here all day "let me test you" just because they meet a foreigner who is using the second foreign language they are studying at? Divine gold!

But how could Tangze, who was determined to mess with her, give up just because his prey struggled?

Faced with her protest, Tang Ze first showed a classic blank and innocent expression, and then smiled in a friendly manner.

"You misunderstood. I didn't mean to ask you a question about Chinese. Sorry, maybe I haven't met many people who can ask for help in foreign languages. I really troubled you the past few days. I just want to thank you."

Seeing that he was not asking questions, Pu Siqinglan breathed a sigh of relief, quickly returned to her elegant state, and picked up the tea cup again.

"You are too polite. There are some minor language issues, and in fact, it is difficult for native speakers to give accurate answers to professional grammar questions. I can't help you..."

That's true, that's true.

Karasawa glanced at her and put his hand into his commuting bag.

Conan and Hattori Heiji, who knew Karasawa's strange abilities, instinctively followed his hand with their eyes.

Tang Ze dug slowly for a while, and under everyone's confused gaze, he pulled out a thick, square stack of red paper.

"This is, 'Couplet'." Facing their gazes, Tang Ze said with a smile, "In Chinese culture, this is a way of writing a gift to express blessing, so that the recipient can decorate it at home. , usually written on red paper, to express joy and wishes..."

Under Pu Siqinglan's inexplicably fearful gaze, Tang Ze slowly unfolded it.

On the red paper decorated with gold foil, a few flying calligraphy characters are powerful and strong. There is a strong emotion and momentum in the movement of the brush. Even people who don't know calligraphy at all can feel the beauty that penetrates the back of the paper.

Pu Siqinglan squinted her eyes for a while, and then she could barely understand the eight words above.

I saw it, the first line is "Biyang evening mood", the second line is "rising east light"...
