Chapter 165: Richard Ravel and his assistant Hertz
On January 27, at 17 o'clock in the evening, the luxury cruise ship docked at the port of Yokohama departed on time, and the destination was the port of Tokyo, with a total travel time of three hours.
Today is the 60th anniversary of the Suzuki Foundation, and the Sally Beth was built for this purpose.
Conan Edogawa, who was wearing a dark blue suit, yawned with his hands in his pockets, and finally saw the figure of Shiro Suzuki after standing here for ten minutes, and he looked around and found that there were some high-class people, worthy of being a big consortium, and it was not easy to invite guests.
Speaking of which, others will hold a party to cut an anniversary cake on their anniversary, and the Suzuki Foundation has directly built a luxury cruise ship that he never expected, and rich people really have money and nowhere to spend it.
"Today is the 60th anniversary of the Suzuki Foundation, and I would like to express my sincere gratitude to all of you for your support and encouragement. Tonight, I hope that everyone will forget about that strange thief, and hope that the more than 500 guests invited to the event can enjoy this elegant and magnificent event here! β
Conan glared at the half-moon eye, how could he forget that guy who blamed the thief Kidd, he deliberately boarded the ship to catch the thief who made him deflated.
"Before I do that, I'm going to tell you what I have in mind." Tomoko Suzuki, who is the wife of the president, wore a dark purple dress and a lilac tulle shawl, and she walked unhurriedly to her husband's side.
She raised her right hand behind her back, showed the small pink box in her hand, and said with a smile: "I gave this little box to every guest present when I got on the boat, and now please open it, to be honest, this is my own little challenge to that stupid thief." β
In fact, Suzuki Tomoko has no bottom in her heart, she is not worried about the thief Kidd, but Yasen Robin, who has always only been interested in sapphires, and his appearance is unexpected... I don't know if he blended in with the crowd.
Conan, who was treated differently, tried to stand on tiptoe to try to see the things in Xiaolan's hand, Maolilan also noticed Conan's curiosity, and gently squatted down to open the pink box, and after seeing the contents she exclaimed, "Huh? It's..."
"That's right! This is my family's heirloom, and it's Kidd the Monster Thief's goal tonightβthe Dark Star. Tomoko Suzuki was very satisfied with the reaction of the guests, explaining, "Of course, there is only one genuine product, and I am the only one who knows the real thing, and everyone else has textiles." β
Conan noticed that Xiaolan was about to pick it up with his bare hands, and hurriedly said: "Sister Xiaolan, it would be better to use a handkerchief, after all, I don't know if this is the real thing!" β
"Conan didn't expect you to know anything about jewelry, huh? That's smart! β
"Hey, hey, no~ It's all seen on the TV!"
Mao Lilan stood up and wrapped the dark star in a handkerchief, carefully wore it on the back of his chest, looked at his best friend Suzuki Sonoko next to him, and praised: "Garden, your mother really has a set, I think this... Well? What's wrong with you, is it because you're not feeling well? β
Hearing Xiaolan's concern, Suzuki Sonoko waved her hand and said, "No, I just didn't see my sister's figure anywhere, shouldn't she stay at home at this time?" β
"Hahaha, how is it possible, now the ships have left the port!"
However, when Suzuki Sonoko dialed her sister's phone, she was sure that her sister did not board the ship, and more importantly, her father did not board the ship, etc.? Who is the dad who just spoke?!
Conan, who heard the news, reacted extremely quickly, and he immediately ran in the direction of the toilet, but because he was in too much of a hurry to notice the oncoming man, he hit his knee directly and fell to the ground.
"Hmm!"
"Little brother, are you alright?"
Conan grinned and rubbed his ass, noticing that the hand outstretched towards him was still wearing white gloves, and couldn't help but look up, only to notice that it was a young man in a black suit with dazzling red medium hair.
He is estimated to be 1.9 meters tall, with a lean body, delicate facial features, and gold glasses with chains attached. The dark golden eyes did not have any emotional fluctuations, and the polite smile on his face gave people a feeling of rejection.
"I'm fine!"
Conan took the other party's hand and got up, noticing that he was holding a cane in his right hand, and the shape of the crutches was very peculiar, and the top armrest was actually in the shape of a crow, and the workmanship was fine, and it was ordered at a large price.
"Big brother, are you inconvenient to walk on crutches?"
Mao Lilan trotted over and heard Conan's childish words, and hurriedly apologized: "Sorry sir, you don't have to take what the child says, Conan, you can't ask others about their privacy so bluntly." β
The red-haired youth smiled and said, "I don't have a leg or foot problem, I just think it's more like a collector with a cane." β
His eyes fell on Maori Kogoro, who was dressed in a white suit, and in his Japanese with a foreign accent, he stepped forward and said, "Mr. Maori, I have long admired your name, and please allow me to introduce myself, I am Richard Ravel, an antiques collector, and this is my assistant Hertz." β
With beautiful long light blonde hair and beautiful gray-blue eyes with upturned eyes, she was wearing a black-and-white professional suit, folded her hands and abdomen and said politely, "Hello, I'm Hertz." β
These two people are Ritsu Sasashima and Akemi Miyano after the disguise, they have long been observing Mori Kogoro and others not far away, as for the strange thief Kidd who disguised himself as Shiro Suzuki and boarded the ship, Ritsu Sasashima said that he didn't need to care at all.
Because... The button he sent last night was a bet on whether he was willing to believe himself, but it was equipped with a locator, and any of his actions could not escape the tracking of the button locator.
Suzuki Sonoko was just a little excited to find out that it was a handsome guy, first, knowing the identity of the other party to maintain the upbringing that the eldest lady should have, and secondly, noticing the shape of the ring that bulged under the glove of Richard's left ring finger.
Wearing a ring on the ring finger of her left hand means that she is engaged or married, and she is never obsessed with a man who has a partner.
"Hello Mr. Richard, I'm Sonoko Suzuki, I guess you're here to talk to your father, right?" Suzuki Sonoko frowned and said regretfully, "I'm really sorry, Dad, he's not on the ship right now." β
Knowing that Shiro Suzuki was pretending to be Kidd, Ritsu Sasashima was not too surprised, but just asked, "Mr. Suzuki is not on the boat?" Are you referring to Mr. Suzuki, who just spoke, in the guise of Kidd? β
"Yes, I'm sorry... This time we didn't have a good reception. β
Ritsu Sasashima fiddled with the fake Dark Star on his chest, and said in a gentle tone, "It's okay, there will be two strange thieves here tonight, and I'm quite looking forward to who will take the genuine Dark Star first." β
Conan raised his head and said curiously, "Brother Richard, do you already know that you are a fake?" β
"Yes, I am an antique collector and a connoisseur, and a fake can be easily identified in my eyes, just as this one on Miss Garden's body is also a fake." Ritsu Sasashima explained with a smile.
This is not a lie, he did study antique appraisal in order to create a good persona, and learning this craft is also beneficial for the investigation of Pandora gemstones.
"The garden." Moriran leaned into Suzuki's ear and whispered, "Do you know where the toilet is?" β
In order not to embarrass Xiaolan, Suzuki Sonoko gestured with his hand twice and instructed, "Don't get lost, this cruise ship is quite big." β
"Got it~"
Conan watched Xiaolan leave, and then remembered that he should investigate the strange thief Kidd, he narrowed his eyes and looked a little helpless, there is no need to investigate now, that guy is definitely disguised as someone else.
Speaking of which, the morning news of the daily sales TV station said that Arsin Robin is also eyeing this dark star, right?
He rolled his eyes, could he be another guy who was good at changing his voice... Are thieves so good now?
