Chapter 19: The Competition
"Alright, you two don't have any more pointless arguments." Seeing that the quarrel between Aichi and Kogoro was intensifying, Zero had no choice but to speak, "Since you don't like each other, let's just compete with Saibei and see who can catch the monster thief Kidd first this time, how about it?" β
"Okay, since Miss Zero has spoken, then I'll sell him this face, and by the way, let you, the head of the chicken nest, teach me the skills of Detective Mori Kogoro!" In the face of Zero's proposal, Kogoro agreed to it, and at the same time showed a confident look.
Ah Yi was naturally not to be outdone: "Hmph, the person who caught the monster thief Kidd first must be me, and I bet on my grandfather's ......."
However, before Ah Yi finished speaking, Zero interrupted him by slapping him on the head: "What kind of bet, if grandpa knows that you have nothing to do all day long to mention his name, you will be angry with you." β
In other words, Zero thinks that Ah Yi's habit of betting on his grandfather is a bit bad, and now you can bet on your grandfather at the age of seventeen, but in the comic "Kanedaichi 37-year-old incident book", 37-year-old Kanedaichi still has to bet on his grandfather every time he encounters a case. Please, Kaneda Ichikosuke became the number one detective in Japan when he was 37 years old, okay, but when you meet your grandson, you have to bet on your grandfather when you are 37 years old, and I'm afraid you won't be able to sleep underground. Besides, you still gambled on your grandfather when you were 37 years old, so in the future, when you are 57 or 77 years old, do you want to continue to gamble on your grandfather? In order to prevent this from happening, Zero felt that it was necessary to change his habit of betting on his grandfather when he was a high school student.
In fact, Kaneda Ichikosuke is Aichi's grandfather and not grandpa, but the daily nicknames of grandfather and grandfather in Japanese are pronounced as "Yoshi-chan", so it was mistranslated as grandpa when the manga was translated. However, considering that Ah Yi's father was in the Kaneda family, there is no problem for Ah Yi to call Kaneda Ichikosuke his grandfather.
Ah Yi, who was slapped in the face, looked at Zero very aggrievedly, while Kogoro was very happy, thinking that Zero slapped his cousin This slap showed that she was on her side.

The group boarded the Shinkansen and drove to Osaka Station, where Sonoko was already waiting at the entrance.
After Zero introduces Aichi and Miyuki to Sonoko, the group gets into a Suzuki Group luxury car and drives to the museum that exhibits Easter Eggs.
The Suzuki Group is worthy of the Suzuki Group, and the interior of the luxury car arranged has a total of three rows of seats, and the space is very spacious, even if there are two more people temporarily, Aichi and Miyuki, there is no crowding at all.
During the drive, Sonoko introduced the driver to everyone: "Let me introduce to you, the driver is my father's secretary, Mr. Nishino. Mr. Nishino is proficient in English, French, and Chinese German, and is quite proficient. β
Secretary Nishino was driving the car, and he couldn't respond much, but just said: "Miss Yuanzi has won the award." β
Soon the group arrived at their destination, the Suzuki Museum of Modern Art. After getting out of the car, Zero found that there were police standing outside the museum, which could be described as three steps and one post, five steps and one sentry, and even helicopters patrolling back and forth in the air.
"It's really heavily guarded...... Xiaolan sighed.
Yuanzi said: "That's natural, after all, the opponent is the strange thief Lord Kidd who has caused the police to be constantly deflated, you must know that he is ......"
However, before the garden could finish speaking, it was interrupted by an abrupt male voice: "Kidd, the strange thief, originally known as the strange thief No. 1412, gender and age are mysteries, and he is a mysterious strange thief with unpredictable whereabouts. For the appearance and voice of others, Kidd can imitate vividly, and the level of cross-dressing can be called perfect. The most important thing is that no matter how tightly guarded and how strong the vault is, it is like an unguarded baby in front of him. In short, Kidd the Strange Thief is a tricky enemy for us detectives. β
A boy on a motorcycle carrying a girl appeared at the entrance of the art museum, and the boy took off his helmet, revealing his dark skin, which was a Kansai high school detective, Hattori Heiji. And the girl he carried was naturally his childhood sweetheart, Yuanshan and Ye.
It was Heiji who spoke just now, and I saw him take off his helmet and wave his hand to Conan: "Long time no see, Kudo." β
Conan was taken aback by Heiji's sudden voice, but before he could say anything, Xiaolan was the first to speak: "Really, Hattori-kun, why do you call Conan Kudo every time?" β
Heiji was stunned for a moment, then scratched the back of his head and apologized: "I'm sorry, this little guy's eyes are too similar to Kudo, so I call him that every time." β
At this time, Kazuye also took off his helmet and said with a disdainful face: "Pingji, you are too stupid, you have been muttering since the morning, 'Kudo is coming, Kudo is coming', I think you are going to the hospital to check your mental problems?" β
"I said you......" can you bear to be told that you have mental problems? Heiji then got into an argument with Kazuha.
Sonoko saw Hattori Heiji for the first time, and asked Xiaolan, "Is that the Kansai high school student detective you mentioned?" It's a little darker, but it's unexpectedly handsome, maybe it's very suitable for me as a boyfriend. β
"No, Garden." Xiaolan hurriedly dissuaded, "Hattori-kun and Miss Yuanshan and Miss Ye beside him are childhood sweethearts, although they often quarrel, but they have a good relationship." β
Sonoko looked at Heiji and Kazuha who were arguing, and then said quietly, "Indeed, the two of them look exactly the same when they quarrel as you and Shinichi...... Ah, it's really enviable, I also want a boyfriend who is a childhood sweetheart. β
Hearing Yuanzi's words, Xiaolan blushed slightly, and then looked at Heiji and Kazuha, recalling the scene when she was arguing with Shinichi, she couldn't help but be a little stupid.
At this time, Heiji also noticed that in addition to Conan, Xiaolan and Kogoro, there were several faces that he had not seen, and his eyes swept over one by one.
A big lady who looks like she should be rich but looks a little silly (Sonoko), a high school boy who dresses up messily (Aichi), a high school girl who looks and has a good temperament (Miyuki), and ......
When he saw Zero, Heiji was stunned as if he had suddenly turned into a stone sculpture.
When Kazuha saw Pingji's expression, he couldn't be angry. However, when she looked at Zero with Pingji's gaze, she was also directly stunned, and even felt ashamed of herself in her heart.
How can there be a woman in the world who is so beautiful, this is really too beautiful.
Yuanzi looked at Pingji's reaction after seeing Zero, and suddenly his heart moved, and he said to Xiaolan: "Xiaolan, you said that if Shinichi sees Zero after returning to school, will he be as stupid as that Kansai detective." β
"Garden, don't talk nonsense, Shinichi won't ......" Xiaolan said and suddenly lost his confidence, the lethality of Zero is too great, if you want to say that Shinichi will not be fascinated by his beauty, he really can't beat this guarantee.
Conan, who was on the side, heard that Yuanzi had introduced the topic to himself, and he was also inexplicably a little weak-hearted, but he still had to defend himself, so he said cutely as usual: "I don't think Brother Shinichi will definitely not be confused by other people's appearances." β
Zero introduced himself and Aichi to Heiji, and when Heiji knew that Zero and Aichi were the granddaughter and grandson of Kaneda Ichikosuke respectively, there was a look of surprise on his face.
While introducing himself, Zero also checked the attributes of Xia Heiji and Kazuha.
Heiji Hattori β Force: C+, Intelligence: A+, Intimacy: E+.
Distant Mountains and Leaves - Force: A-, Intelligence: C-, Intimacy: E.
Needless to say, Pingji's intelligence value is slightly inferior to Conan and Ah Yi, but after all, it also belongs to the level of a young genius. In terms of force value, the evaluation of C+ does not represent the true level of equality. Heiji is a kendo master, and if he holds a wooden knife in his hand, it is estimated that Xiaolan will be able to beat him. But he can only observe the force value in the bare hand state, and he doesn't know any other martial arts in the same time, relying on the physical fitness, footwork and some combat qualities that he usually exercises when practicing kendo, he finally got such a C+ force value evaluation.
Kazuha is a master of Aikido, and his Aikido level is also among the top among high school girls, so the martial arts evaluation is naturally very high.
After Heiji came back to his senses, he also introduced himself to Kazuha, and then everyone entered the museum together.

Sonoko took everyone directly to the president's room on the top floor of the museum, where Sonoko's father, Shiro Suzuki, chairman of the Suzuki Group, was waiting for everyone.
After entering the president's room, Zero took a look at the environment, which was an extremely spacious room, which should be between ninety and one hundred square meters. On the wall next to the door hangs a watercolor painting that is worth a lot of money at first glance, and on the wall in front of it is a large window through which the sunlight shines into the room. On the left side of the room is a desk and chair and a goldfish cabinet, and on the right side is a piano, but Shiro Suzuki obviously can't play the piano, and the piano is just a decoration for viewing like a fish tank.
In the center of the room is a large U-shaped sofa with a rectangular table in the middle.
Shiro Suzuki was sitting on the couch, and there were several other people sitting on the couch, and President Suzuki was communicating something with them. Seeing Sonoko and Kogoro come in, Chairman Suzuki hurriedly got up to greet him, "Detective Maori, welcome." Oh, Ran and Conan are here too...... Also, these are ......"
Although Shiro Suzuki invited Kogoro Maori to come and help him deal with Kidd, it was expected that Conan and Xiaolan would follow, but he didn't expect them to be accompanied by a large group of people. This made him want to complain, could it be that the Maori detective used my museum as a place for high school students to go on an outing, and brought a group of high school students over to play?
