Next~~

Kidd the Strange Thief disappeared without a trace again, but unlike before, this time, he didn't know life and death......

After searching the sea all night, to no avail, and the police had no good way, they had to divide into two routes, one to continue the search for the strange thief Kidd, and the other way, in order to investigate whether the egg of memories was damaged, urgently stopped the display, and prepared to use the Suzuki family's ship to transport it back to Tokyo.

In the cabin room, listening to Conan's words in my ears, and casually looking at Xiaolan, who was carefully caring for the pigeon left by Kidd, I yawned boredly: "So, the result of your discussion just now is that the direction indicated by the egg of memories is the castle in Yokosuka, right?"

Conan accidentally touched the lens under the Egg of Memory, but unexpectedly, he accidentally discovered the secret hidden in the Egg of Memory, that is, the address that was recorded using the magic mirror technology, the castle of Yokosuka.

"Well, that's right. Conan nodded and replied casually, as if thinking of something.

"Ah...... I'm going to Yokosuka...... "I shook my head and didn't say anything more.

I already know from Conan's mouth that Uncle Maori had agreed to the request of Miss Natsumi Kasaka, the owner of the Egg of Memory, and when they arrived in Tokyo, they would go with her to Yokosuka's castle. I don't have a problem with this decision, it's certain that Kidd the Monster Thief didn't die, and if he didn't die, then he wouldn't have given up his goal this time easily. Yokosuka's castle may be the place to see him again, and I still have something to confirm with him, so I must go to Yokosuka.

But......

Yokosuka......

Thinking of this place, I frowned slightly, this place is not a good place for me...... I just hope I don't meet her......

Closing my eyes, the black-haired and black-eyed Chinese girl slowly emerged in my mind, my hands clenched subconsciously, and I whispered a familiar name in my heart: Black Cherry......

I don't know...... How's she doing......

I have to say that after what happened to Shiho, my mentality has changed a little. I kept recalling those lingering memories of the past, and what made me feel ridiculous was that I suddenly had a kind of hope, since Shiho didn't lie to me, then, what about Black Cherry?

Actually, the facts are already obvious, about what happened in the organization before, except for the medicine that made me shrink was not explained, Shiho did not explicitly participate in anything that was unfavorable to me, but, Black Cherry is different, what I heard on the day I defected from the organization, all I heard from Black Cherry's mouth, and when I was arrested by the organization, Black Cherry did participate in that operation......

But when I think of the past...... There is a kind of hope in my heart, a hope that makes my intellect laugh at it a thousand times.

If only that, Black Cherry, is really not what I thought it would be......

Heh!

"Yo Xi! so good~ The bleeding has stopped, as long as the wound heals, you should be able to fly!" In the fluttering movement, Xiaolan's energetic voice interrupted the memories of both Conan and me at the same time.

Conan recovered from his emotions and looked at the pigeon that was flapping its wings, and a heartfelt smile appeared on his face: "Really?

"Well, the pigeon should be fine......" Xiaolan carefully put the pigeon back in the basket, looking out the window at the sky with a little trouble on her face: "But ah, Kidd doesn't know if it's dead......"

"......" Conan didn't answer, but there was also a hint of concern in his lowered gaze.

Oh, this great detective is really interested in that strange thief...... Thinking of what Conan said to me last night, I looked at Conan and shrugged my shoulders, not wanting to think deeply:

"Well, Sister Xiaolan, don't worry, that strange thief doesn't look like it's going to be so easy to get into trouble. ”

"Well, I hope that's the case......" Xiaolan looked at the white dove with concern on her face and nodded.

"Knock knock knock ......" came knocking on the door.

I jumped out of my seat and opened the door......

"Well...... What, this expression, not surprised at all...... "It was the photographer Han Chuan Long who knocked on the door, and when he opened the door, he saw me looking at him expressionlessly, and Han Chuan Long, who was holding the camera, shook his head boringly, complained casually, and then turned around and left.

"Well, Xiaoye, what's wrong?Who is it?" Just as I was about to catch up with the cold river dragon, Xiaolan walked out of the guest room and leaned out to look at it suspiciously.

"Huh, it's Mr. Hankawa Ryu......" Conan looked at the distant figure and looked at me inexplicably, "What is he doing?"

"Who knows......" I shrugged, expressing the same puzzlement.

However, one thing is known, and that is that I may need to look for the cold river dragon in a moment......

Did you take a picture of me...... It's not a good choice to stream your own images......

"HI!Xiaolan, we're here to play with you~~" Just as I was thinking like this, another familiar loud voice came from behind.

turned around, and sure enough, it was the daughter of Suzuki Sonoko.

"It's the garden...... Xiaolan greeted Suzuki Sonoko with a smile, then looked at the two people behind Suzuki Sonoko, and smiled politely: "Ah, Miss Natsumi and Mr. Nishino are also here, please come in!"

As he spoke, he turned sideways and invited a few people in......

"Sorry, excuse me!" Natsumi and Nishino smiled embarrassedly at the same time, but contrary to his words and deeds, in the next second, Nishino's face changed, and he said in a panic: "Ahh......h I'd better forget it!"

As he spoke, the man departed as if he had fled......

"Huh?" Suzuki Sonoko looked at Nishino's panicked back suspiciously, puzzled, "Ah! That's right, is it because there are too many beautiful women, he's shy?" Suzuki Sonoko looked narrow: "Ha! it's so cute~~~"

Scold...... I'm sorry, Miss Suzuki, but I think you're wrong...... I glanced blankly at the fluttering pigeon in the room, but said nothing.

"Na, Sister Xiaolan, I suddenly remembered that I still have something to do, so let's go out first......" Still thinking about Hanchuan Long, he gently dragged Xiaolan, and I said.

"Well, where are you going, little ghost?" Before Xiaolan could answer, Suzuki Sonoko grabbed me with a threatening face, "Every time you run blindly, you disappear, go! We have forgotten a beautiful woman, come with me to call her!"

"Yes, and Miss Qinglan!" Xiao Lan reminded the garden, and also thought of the rest of the person.

Pu Si Qinglan...... I listened to Xiaolan's words silently, that strange woman called herself Chinese......

"Let's go, little ghost!" On the other side, while I was still thinking about it, Sonoko Suzuki had already picked up Conan with the other hand and was ready to leave.

"Eh, will I go too?" While Conan was still hesitating, the person had already been taken away by Sonoko Suzuki......

"Kid, hurry up!" Suzuki Sonoko beckoned to me impatiently.

“……”

Well...... Forget it, anyway, the direction in which the woman named Pu Si Qinglan lives is the same as the direction in which Hanchuan Long left, even if it is by the way......

Qinglan's room~

"Well, is that so?" Pu Si Qinglan listened to the garden's explanation, hesitated for a moment, and then responded with a smile: "Well, okay, thank you, I'll be fine right away, please wait a moment." ”

So saying, the man turned and walked into the house......

"Gulicoli?" Suzuki Sonoko, who was politely standing at the door and waiting, looked at the photo on the table suspiciously, thought about it, and the next second, suddenly realized: "Ah! That can't be a picture of your boyfriend, right?"

"Huh?" Hearing Suzuki Sonoko's words, Pu Si Qinglan, who was packing up her things, stiffened not very obviously, and naturally walked over and buttoned the photo, Pu Si Qinglan had a little shyness on her face: "Well, yes...... I'm sorry......"

"Ah...... It's so good, everyone has a husband~" Suzuki Sonoko decisively couldn't notice Pu Si Qinglan's pause, and when she heard Qinglan's affirmative answer, Suzuki Sonoko looked frustrated......

"Sure enough, I'm going to step up my pursuit of Kidd Sama!

"Hehehe......" Conan sneered with half-moon eyes.

"What are you laughing at, little ghost!" Suzuki Sonoko snorted coldly as his fist collided with his head.

“……”

"Hey, little ghost, where are you going?" and then the frustrated Suzuki Sonoko shifted his target, and grabbed me again as he was about to leave, with a look of horror......

“……”

After thinking about it, I felt that it would be good to delete the photo before the boat docked, and I didn't resist too much, and after following Suzuki Sonoko, who was exuding low air pressure, back to Xiaolan's room, several people sat down separately......

"Na Na~~ Did Miss Natsumi live in Paris at the age of 20?" Xiaolan asked curiously.

"Well, yes, that's why my Japanese is weird. Natsumi said embarrassedly: "Ah, by the way, when it comes to weird Japanese, I have a sentence that I remember very well when I was a child." ”

"Na Na~ What are you talking about?" Sonoko Suzuki, who was filled with curiosity, instantly forgot about her previous depression.

"Well...... It seems to be ......" Natsumi put a finger to her chin and tried to recall, "Ah...... It seems to be, Barucheni dry katame ......"

"Baruxue...... What?" Xiaolan looked dazed......

"Well, I think it should be \" Baruxue, did you buy the meat?" Natsumi said uncertainly, "But I don't have any impression of this name." ”

I was sitting on the sidelines and absent-mindedly I was stunned for a moment when I heard this......

Repeating it silently in a low voice, I frowned......

"Hey, what's wrong? Do you think of anything?" Conan, who was sitting next to me, frowned at me and asked in a low voice.

"No...... Nothing ......" I shook my head after thinking fruitlessly.

"That's it......" Hearing my negative answer, Conan no longer cared about my reaction, and turned his gaze, Conan's gaze suddenly fixed on Natsumi's eyes: "Huh, the color of Miss Natsumi's eyes ......"

"Well, yes, it's gray. "Probably it's often discovered, before Conan's words were finished, Natsumi nodded with a smile and explained, "My mother and grandmother's are the same color, I think it should be inherited by my great-grandmother." ”

"Oh, I see. Xiaolan nodded understandingly, and then looked at Pu Si Qinglan in surprise: "Huh, Miss Qinglan's eyes are also gray." ”

"Eh, really! Are the Chinese all gray eyes?"

Who told you Chinese have gray pupils...... Looking at Suzuki Sonoko, the eldest lady of the Suzuki chaebol with a thirsty face, I was speechless, did this eldest lady never come here and didn't care about her own business dealings? I clearly remember that the Suzuki chaebol had Chinese customers......

Not to mention this, though...... Indeed, Pu Si Qinglan, who claims to be a Chinese, has gray pupils, which I have noticed a long time ago, but I didn't pay much attention to it, and it is understandable that the Chinese and Russian are mixed......

Well, Chinese-Russian mixed race, Russian?

Thinking of Russia, I paused and frowned again, Barucheni Kukatame ......

Wait a minute...... COULD IT BE THAT IT IS ВОЛШЕБНИК-КОНЦА-ВЕКА (BARU SHEPNIKOKAN ZHIMEI)?

A magician at the end of the century?

Oh, that's interesting......

Kidd, the thief, what is your purpose?

After figuring out the meaning of 'Barucheni Kukatame' in Natsumi's mouth, I suddenly became a little curious, the purpose of this strange thief Kidd doesn't seem to be as simple as stealing the egg of memory......

Did it turn out that it was known from the beginning that the Egg of Memories was related to the magician at the end of the century?

Thinking of the strange payment on the notice letter from Kidd the Strange Thief, I suddenly had a guess in my mind......

If it's true, it's really a well-intentioned thief...... It's like...... The kind-hearted thief Kidd I remember is the same......

"Na~ Qinglan's age should be about the same age as me, right?" Figured out some things and came back to his senses the friendship between girls is often established very quickly at this time several girls present have become familiar with each other xia mei happened to ask pusi qinglan s age.

"Well, yes, I'm 27 years old. Pu Siqinglan replied with a smile.

"Eh, it's the same! When did you give birth?" Finding her peers, Natsumi seemed excited.

"May, May 5th. Pu Si Qinglan replied.

"Hey, I'm May 3rd, we're only two days away!" Natsumi exclaimed in surprise.

May 3, May 5...... As I listened to these two dates, I suddenly realized something, and hurriedly turned my head to look at Conan......

"Hey, Conan......"

"Ah~ that's amazing! Then both of you are only one day away from me!"

However, my words were still too late......

This idiot!

Looking at Conan, who unconsciously said his birthday, I scolded secretly, turned my head to look at Xiaolan, and sure enough, I saw Xiaolan's trance-like expression.

May 4th is not Conan's birthday in Edogawa, but the birthday of Shinichi Kudo, a childhood friend who belongs to Xiaolan.

Looking at Conan, who was still chatting happily with Xia Meiqinglan unconsciously, I rolled my eyes helplessly, this guy, did he really answer that sentence? People with high IQ have low EQ......
