Chapter 124: Where Does Conan’s Inspiration for Solving Crimes Come From?

The next day.

As expected, Qin Zhibo received an invitation from Suzuki Sonoko.

"That's Kaito Kidd! Kaitou Kidd!"

On the phone, Suzuki Sonoko's voice was very excited, sounding like she had just won a 1 billion yen lottery.

Well, even if he won 1 billion yen, Sonoko would not be as happy as he is now.

According to Sonoko's introduction, this time Kaitou Kidd is eyeing the Suzuki family's heirloom - the Black Star. The notice has been sent to the head of the Suzuki family, Suzuki Shiro.

However, Shiro Suzuki was so angry after receiving the notice letter that he tore it into pieces.

"But I put together the notice letter again!"

"Is there a fax machine?"

"No."

"Then I will ask my servant to send a copy of the assembled notice letter to your office later."

"By the way! If I can catch Kaitou Kidd, I have a small request."

"You guessed it! Just let me see the true face of the thief in advance!"

"I think he must be a handsome middle-aged guy!"

"I wonder if it's like Harrison Ford or Jon Lelouch? I'm really looking forward to it!"

"It would be better if I could be as young as Brad Peter!"

"Okay! I'll leave everything to Uncle Qin!"

After hanging up the phone, Qin Zhibo, as a native Hawaiian, couldn't help but complain about Sonoko's Japanese-English pronunciation in his heart.

Being in line with international standards is a good thing.

But they are Harrison Ford, Jean Reno, and Brad Pitt!

Secondly, from the mouth of the girlish Yuanzi, Qin Zhibo also learned the public's general view of Kaitou Kidd, and he was indeed a middle-aged uncle.

However, Qin Zhibo still insisted on his opinion. Kaitou Kidd is a young and rich second generation of a magic family.

Half an hour later, a servant of the Suzuki family delivered a copy of the notice letter as promised.

【April fool

When the moon separates two people

In the name of the dark star

I will arrive with the waves

Phantom Thief]

Putting aside the secret investigation points on the notice letter, Qin Zhibo saw the words April fool.

This refers to April 1st, International April Fools' Day.

But Qin Zhibo clearly remembered the Yueying Island case a few days ago. The old policeman said that day was June 1st.

Qin Zhibo: "."

Time in this world is still so "scientific".

The day before the preview of Kaitou Kidd, Qin Zhibo came to the Rice Krispies Museum as scheduled.

In front of the museum, the mobile team was fully armed, and Qin Zhibo was able to enter the museum only through identity verification.

As soon as he entered the hall, Qin Zhibo saw an amazing man talking to Maori Kogoro.

This man has a big belly, a friendly smile, and a pair of round-rimmed glasses. He doesn't look impressive, but Qin Zhibo has already felt his weight from the personal information hanging on his head.

——

Name: Shiro Suzuki

Sex: Male

Age: 51

Occupation: Entrepreneur

Social credit: 12700

The most that Qin Zhibo had seen before was the president of the company. Shiro Suzuki's occupation was directly that of an entrepreneur, and he was also the first person Qin Zhibo had seen to have a five-digit social credit.

Qin Zhibo's current social credit of 2,530 is equivalent to the big boss's fraction after erasing the tens of thousands figure.

At this time, Sonoko, who was following Shiro Suzuki, saw Qin Zhibo and quickly whispered to his father next to him.

"It turns out to be Mr. Qin. I have heard about your wisdom from my two little daughters."

"Today, two great detectives, Detective Maori and Mr. Qin, came to my place. They are like even more powerful than a tiger!"

After the commercial promotion, Shiro Suzuki took everyone to admire the world's largest black pearl - the Black Star.

I have to say, these pearls as big as pigeon eggs are really beautiful.

However, Qin Zhibo only glanced at the Black Star and then turned his attention to Conan next to him.

Because Conan was not tall enough, he was held in Xiaolan's arms and glanced at the dark star, then immediately returned to the ground, holding a copy of the notice letter in his hand as if thinking.

Since the last Shanni Temple incident, Qin Zhibo probably understood Kogoro Mouri's daily method of solving crimes.

The "Sleeping Mouri Kogoro" claimed in the newspaper is actually Moori Kogoro who is responsible for sleeping, and it is Conan who solves the case.

However, people in this world seem to be selectively deaf and blind when Conan is reasoning, so no one has discovered the bug in Mouri Kogoro's reasoning.

Judging from Conan's expression, he probably hasn't deciphered the riddle on the notice yet.

Not only Conan, but also the tall police officers sent by the police to handle the case - Ochagi Shintaro and Mori Kogoro clearly didn't understand the notice letter, but they twisted their hair and got two wrong answers.

Ochagi Jintaro thought that Kaitou Kid would come from Tsumuzu River, and Mouri Kogoro thought that he would come from the rice flower guild hall where the idol singer Okino Yoko performed.

Forget it, leave them alone.

Although Qin Zhibo understood Kaitou Kidd's notice letter yesterday through secret word investigation, he did not intend to tell the police and detectives at the moment.

Because his goal is not to capture Kaito Kidd, but to find the mysterious assistant beside Kaitou Kidd.

Only by being able to contact Kaitou Kidd privately can we more easily complete the tasks assigned by Nine Angels.

Then there's nothing going on here, so just evacuate first.

"Everyone, I'm a little hungry. Let's go get some food nearby."

Qin Zhibo waved his hand and turned around to leave.

Looking at Qin Zhibo's back, a thunder suddenly sounded in Conan's brain.

Click!

Wait a moment!

Have a meal

Of course, Conan was not thinking about "taking him with me to eat", but his imaginative brain got a hint of inspiration from this ordinary word.

Eat→Restaurant→Nearby hotel.

Conan: "!"

Quickly running to the window of the museum, Conan picked up his watch and looked at the buildings outside.

After a moment, Conan put his hands in his pockets, his glasses glowing with unscientific wisdom.

I see

I've unlocked it, Kaitou Kidd!

12:20 midnight, Cupido Hotel.

Originally, during the day, Qin Zhibo left the Rice Krispies Museum on the pretext of eating, hoping to visit some places in advance.

But when passing by the lobby on the first floor, Qin Zhibo saw a few people with the profession of police on their heads walking back and forth in the lobby.

So Qin Zhibo guessed that there were smart people in the police who guessed the meaning of the notice letter.

In order to avoid being caught as Kaitou Kidd when he went up to the roof, and it was quite time-consuming to go back and forth from Cupido Hotel to Mihua Town, Qin Zhibo simply checked into the hotel.

It was almost time for the announcement. Qin Zhibo closed the door of the room and walked to the roof of the Abeido Hotel with steady steps.

At the same time, a white figure was standing on Tokyo Tower, looking at the Cupido Hotel from a distance.
