Chapter 177: The Strange Thief Is Really Hard to Catch

At night, Conan walked home with a small schoolbag, and when he pushed the door, he saw Xiaolan pointing out the window and said angrily, "On that street, Shinichi passed by me, and we were only a little bit away, but he didn't pay attention to me at all!" ”

Her index finger and thumb were close to each other, and the gap as small as a grain of rice was saved in the middle, obviously using an exaggerated technique, after all, it was raining today, unless the person she said collided with her umbrella, it was impossible to get so close.

"Sister Xiaolan, you must be mistaken." , Conan was convinced.

"I can see very clearly that he was only talking to the girls who were traveling with him!" , Xiaolan's face gradually became gloomy, and the cup in her hand was pinched out with a creak, "Brother Naoki also saw it!" ”

Suddenly, the white tree who was cue put down the coke and sighed, "Speaking with my conscience, I actually only saw you running a red light." ”

"......", Xiaolan, a good law-abiding boy, blushed, her momentum stagnated, and her tone unconsciously eased a lot, "I...... I was in a hurry to chase people, and I forgot to look at it. ”

"What's there to worry about, isn't that kid empathetic and don't fall in love." , Maori Kogoro burped innocently, and returned to the original topic with a face, "By the way, you just asked me to catch the monster thief or something, what is going on?" ”

"It's Kidd the Thief." Xiaolan said, "I don't know very well, I heard from Yuanzi that he is a thief who comes and goes freely in the whole world, and the treasures he targets will not escape." ”

"Thief, ......", Conan, who had just been shocked by the case, yawned and turned away without interest, "I'm going to do my homework." ”

"Go ahead, I'll call you when dinner is ready." Xiaolan said as she took out her pocket, took out a piece of paper from it, and handed it to Maori Kogoro, "This is a copy of the advance notice that the garden gave me, it should be the code left by Kidd." ”

Mori Kogoro took it curiously, and saw a few lines of obscure sentences printed on the paper:

When the moon separates the two

Under the name of the Dark Star

Invited to the waves

I will come

Kidd"

Maori Kogoro read with a sore brain, "This person's language class is taught by a physical education teacher, I don't know anything!" ”

"After all, the main purpose is to leave a code, and it is far-fetched for those key information, so I didn't pay much attention to the wording." , Shiraki got up and put the used cup into the sink, and when he came out, he found that Conan, who originally said that he was going to do his homework, had run to Mori Kogoro at some point, and was staring intently at the piece of paper.

…… Oh, detective.

……

The next day, Kogoro Mori was invited to Suzuki's house.

Bai Shu didn't go, saying that he would stay and watch the store. It had just rained, and it was damp outside, so I really didn't want to go out.

sent the protagonists out in the morning, and in the evening, how did the group of three go out, and they all came back unscathed.

Mori Kogoro was even very happy, looking up to the sky and laughing, "He must have seen me, that's why he escaped on the spot!" I have to say, he made a wise choice! ”

Xiaolan was very face-saving, "Dad is amazing!" ”

Conan laughed dryly, sat down on the couch without much energy, dragged a cup, and drank tea like a fugue

Bai Shu glanced at him, put down the potato chips and remote control in his hand, and asked meaningfully, "How is it?" Did it go well? ”

"I cracked the code and found where he was present. But he said it was just an April Fool's joke.

"Then he stood on the rooftop of the top floor at a height of nearly 100 meters, surrounded by countless policemen, and disappeared out of thin air - it only took a flashbang to take effect."

The tea was all drunk, and Conan was still pouring the cup from time to time, and there were so many question marks on his head that he could kill people, "How is this possible?" There must be something I didn't notice......"

"Don't think about it, since it's a joke today, he'll steal it a second time later." Bai Shu rescued the devastated cup and put it back on the table, "Let it go, it's not easy for people to hold tea." ”

Conan replied casually, and instead picked up the magazine that White Tree had put aside, flipping through it, "Indeed, he left another teaser letter, saying that on April 19th, he would go to the Queen Selizabeth and take the real Dark Star." ”

Speaking of this, he snapped the book and looked at Shiraki, "That ship belongs to the Suzuki family, and the garden has given four invitations, and at that time, we will compete with him again!" ”

“…… Be reasonable, it's not 'us', it's you. ”

"The bastard said before he left, saying 'The thief is a creative artist who gets his prey, and the detective can only follow in his footsteps.'" , Conan's eyes lit up a small flame, "It's nonsense!" As a detective, can you tolerate this? ”

"......", of course I can, and I'm not a serious detective.

Bai Shu swallowed this sincere sentence with great difficulty, and turned to squeeze out a little anger and energy, "You're right, him!" ”

Three days later, Shiraki got up and washed up, and stumbled upon the thick paper calendar that read, April 18.

"......", he tore off the page symbolizing yesterday's calendar, looked at the "April 19th" exposed below, and wondered for a few seconds, unable to figure out where the remaining dozen or so calendar papers had slipped.

…… It can only be said that it is a small world that has departed from the normal three thousand realms, and it has a lot of personality.

Except for Bai Shu, no one was surprised by this, Xiaolan even packed her luggage in advance, looking forward to it, "I haven't been to the sea for a long time, I hope the sunshine is good enough today!" ”

"Seriously, we're not here to play!" , Maori Kogoro lowered his chin and lowered his head, and tied his bow tie unfamiliarly, while not forgetting to say:

"Today, I, Maori Kogoro, will definitely arrest Kidd!"

……

The cruise ship was large, and there were many guests invited by the Suzuki Foundation, and Shiraki also saw several familiar faces inside, all of whom were passers-by who had met in the previous case.

The guests lined up in an orderly manner to board the ship, and were mysteriously handed out a small box by the staff.

Everyone's box contains a black pearl, some of them are bright in color, some are dull, some are large and some are small, and the shape and color are irregular.

- "I have devised an ingenious campaign for that foolish thief. ”

Tomoko Suzuki, Sonoko's mother, stood on the table of the banquet hall and smiled as she held up the box in her hand, the ivory-white jewelry box being filled with her black velvet gloves.

She confidently announced her plan:

"This is the dark star that Kidd predicted to steal, there is only one genuine product, the others are fakes, only I know who the real thing was sent to.

"Guys, pin it to your chest so Kidd can take a good look!"

Tomoko Suzuki pinched the black pearl in his hand and smiled defiantly:

"If you can find the real thing within three hours of sailing on this ship and succeed in stealing it...... Just do it! ”
