Chapter 1269: The Cat Substitutes for the Prince

"Hey, you..."

Kuroba Kaito just wanted to stand up, but his legs were so weak that he fell back on the floor of the toilet.

Conan looked at the boy who looked like him in front of him, and said coldly without any sympathy: "The effect of the anesthesia has not completely worn off, just sit here for a while..."

"During this period, let me ask some questions."

"As long as you answer truthfully, we won't embarrass you."

Conan's young face showed a serious expression, which made Kuroba Kaito immediately serious.

"First of all, the first question, is the man who bought clothes with you in the rice flower store some time ago called 'Michael'?"

Hearing this question, Kuroba Kaito frowned slightly.

Of course he still remembered that incident. The foreigner Qin Zhibo disguised himself as was called Michael. He himself was almost affected by the incident because the clerk remembered his appearance.

Fortunately, the acquaintance next door, Officer Nakamori, guaranteed that he got away with it.

But how did this kid know that the identity of Uncle Qin's disguise was called "Michael"?

"What Michael?"

"Who are you talking about? Why don't I understand?"

"Besides, I don't know you at all!"

"I just happened to enter the bathroom and heard someone talking here, so..."

Kuroba Kaito decided to play dumb and not reveal Qin Zhibo's information.

Although Qin Zhibo usually seems to be familiar with this kid, there must be a reason why he didn't tell him about this.

At this time, Conan smiled slightly.

"Stop acting..."

"If you haven't experienced this at all, shouldn't you answer that you haven't been to the rice flower store to buy clothes before?"

"And the way you looked at us just now didn't look like you had seen us for the first time."

"So just tell the truth!"

Kuroba Kaito's pupils trembled: Oh no! I forgot!

When the other party asked, he deliberately brought up the incident of "buying clothes at the rice flower store", which gave him a preconceived idea.

However, Kuroba Kaito thought about it and thought that even if the other party played a trick, he could deny it.

Besides, he also holds the secret of this elementary school student, so he doesn't need to be too timid when talking to him.

Just like that, Kuroba Kaito lowered his head against the wall and snorted coldly.

"Huh, is it a detective's trick?"

"It's a pity, Mr. Detective, I know a big secret of yours..."

Conan looked at the boy in front of him whose style suddenly changed, and felt a chill in his heart.

Did he see him when he became smaller just now?

Impossible, the anesthetic needle can't wake up so quickly without external influence...

But the next second, Kuroba Kaito said that sentence.

"You are the high school detective who disappeared some time ago, Kudo Shinichi..."

Hearing that the other party really said this secret that he couldn't touch the most, Conan was a little panicked, and waved his hands and shook his head.

"You, what are you talking about?"

"How could I be Shinichi brother..."

Because his identity was suspected by Mao Lilan many times before, Conan subconsciously said the title "Shinichi brother".

When he said it, he realized that things were getting even worse.

Because such a close name, doesn't it mean that he knows Kudo Shinichi?

Kuroba Kaito instantly gained the upper hand, raised his head again and looked at the elementary school student in front of him, with a sly smile on his lips.

Although he had known Conan was Kudo Shinichi for a long time, Conan's change of clothes was not very good in his eyes.

For example...

"Although you changed the clothes you were wearing before after you became smaller, the schoolbag you carried is exactly the same as the one Kudo Shinichi just now."

"Hmph, hmph..."

As a genius magician and a thief, although he only had a moment of vision just now, Kuroba Kaito still remembered quite a lot of details.

Now Conan was even more speechless.

Originally, he was accidentally bumped into in the toilet just now, which was a 100% accident.

But he didn't expect that this young man would be so decisive to think that he was Kudo Shinichi.

Even if ordinary people have such a guess, they won't say it out loud, right?

Because it really goes against human common sense.

Even if he tried to defend himself now, he would still be exposed if the other party suggested that the so-called "Kudo Shinichi" appear here.

Seeing the elementary school student in front of him clench his fists and bow his head in silence, Kuroba Kaito knew that he had won.

At this time, his body had almost recovered, and he slowly stood up with his hand on the wall.

"Okay, since there is nothing else, I will leave first..."

Kuroba Kaito walked forward, passed by Dr. Agasa who was standing there, and waved his hand with his handsome back.

Although it was indeed a shocking secret that Kudo Shinichi became an elementary school student, he did not expect that the secret was so well handled.

As soon as he mentioned this, Conan stopped talking immediately.

So why could he make his body bigger or smaller?

Although Kuroba Kaito was also very curious about the reason, he was not a detective after all, and it was not his job to dig out the truth.

Moreover, even his father, Kuroba Toichi, can be "resurrected". There must be other incredible things in this world...

At this moment, Conan behind Kuroba Kaito suddenly spoke again.

"Did you just leave like that?"

"Don't you want to see what's missing from you?"

Kuroba Kaito looked back and saw Conan raising his hand and patting Dr. Agasa's trouser pocket with a smirk on his face.

His eyes were stunned and he quickly touched his inner pocket.

The wallet inside is still there, but the passport is missing!

This guy took my passport!

Conan put his hands back into his trouser pockets and smiled: "If you don't have something like that, I'm afraid you won't be able to return to Japan, right?"

"So you want to talk more?"

Kuroba Kaito: "..."

Although he wanted to just throw away his hands and leave, it was really a headache without a passport.

As long as the other party takes the passport back to Japan and checks it through special channels, they can know their detailed identity information, including their home address.

Kuroba Kaito gritted his teeth slightly, forcing a forced smile on his handsome face.

"How do you talk?"

…

On the other side, at the exit channel of Heathrow Airport.

Mouri Kogoro looked at the watch on his wrist with an impatient expression.

"Half an hour has passed, why haven't they come out yet?"

Mao Lilan next to him wondered, "Could it be that the toy Conan usually wears was made by Dr. A Li and was stopped by customs?"

Mao Lilan knew that Conan had some mysterious inventions, such as a glowing flashlight, a detective medal, etc.

These gadgets are nothing in daily life, but if they are seen by customs, they will inevitably feel like spy equipment and can easily cause unnecessary misunderstandings.

Just when Mao Lilan was about to take out the phone and ask, a childish voice came from his feet.

"Sister Xiaolan!"

The Maori father and daughter turned around and saw Dr. A Li and Conan standing nearby.

"When did you come out?" Mouri Kogoro asked, pinching his waist.

Dr. A Li: "Just now..."

"But Xiaolan and I have been here at the exit, why didn't we see you?"

"Um...well..."

Dr. A Li had cold sweat on his temples. He had rarely lied in front of acquaintances in his old age.

But since I have Conan around me, I often tell little lies.

Seeing that the doctor was not very good at dealing with this aspect, Conan quickly interrupted: "Well...Sister Xiaolan, guess who we met!"

Mao Lilan looked down at Conan curiously, "Who is it?"

Just as she asked this question, a familiar voice sounded behind her.

"Xiaolan."

Mao Lilan's delicate body shook, and her eyes showed a very shocked expression.

When she slowly turned around, there was the familiar childhood sweetheart standing behind her, wearing a handsome denim suit, waving to her.

"Shinichi?!"

Mao Lilan nervously grabbed her palm, a blush appearing on her delicate cheeks.

"Shinichi, why are you here?"

"Um, well..."

"Kudo Shinichi" was a little speechless, because the script discussed in the toilet just now did not include this paragraph.

Conan on the other side could only quickly pick up the conversation, squinted his eyes and explained with a smile: "During our previous chat, I accidentally revealed to Shinichi-san that we were coming to London!"

Hearing this, Mao Lilan pinched her waist angrily and sulked symbolically, "Really, Conan, you ruined my plan!"

Mao Lilan's original plan was to suddenly come to London and scare Kudo Shinichi.

As a result, the other party suddenly appeared and gave me an unexpected surprise.

But to her, it was still sweet.

Because she was also prepared that Kudo Shinichi would not be able to meet him even if he and she were in the same country because he was busy with a commission.

At this moment, Kudo Shinichi took the initiative to walk up to Mao Lilan, took Mao Lilan's slender right hand, and kissed the back of the white hand gently.

Immediately, he raised his head and revealed a romantic and profound smile.

"Even if this kid doesn't tell me, I will use my own ability to deduce it..."

"After all, I am...a famous detective~"

Mao Lilan looked at Kudo Shinichi with such a gentlemanly demeanor in front of him, his heart trembled suddenly, and his cheeks became even more rosy.

Conan, who was lower down, saw this and was anxious in his heart.

This guy actually took advantage of this moment!

The key is that there is nothing you can do against him!

But before Conan could think of a way to separate the two people who had an awkward atmosphere, Mouri Kogoro stretched out a pair of strong palms and pushed Kudo Shinichi away.

"Hey! Boy! What are you doing?"

Kudo Shinichi smiled slightly, nodded politely to Kogoro Mori, and explained: "This is just a hand-kissing ceremony popular in Europe..."

"What kiss on the hand?" Mouri Kogoro roared angrily, "Don't learn bad things in foreign countries and lead Xiaolan to bad things again!"

Conan's inner os: Uncle, well done!

Seeing Mouri Kogoro's strong objection, Kudo Shinichi could only shrink his shoulders helplessly and shook his head, "Since uncle doesn't like it, then forget it..."

Seeing that the Kudo Shinichi in front of him was gradually becoming OOC, Conan had no choice but to quickly walk to the side and use the bow-tie voice changer to explain in a low voice.

"Hey, don't do unnecessary things! Act like a normal person..."

"If you are exposed, you will never get your passport back."

Conan whispered into the bow-tie voice changer, and "Kudo Shinichi" over there heard this voice, and his expression was slightly startled.

At this time, "Kudo Shinichi" had a Bluetooth headset plugged into one of his ears.

The Bluetooth headset is connected to a bowtie voice changer, so you can hear Conan's voice.

And that was Conan's deal with him.

Just now in the airport toilet, Conan came up with this "tanuki cat for prince" method in order to "take" Kuroba Kaito with him reasonably.

It just so happened that this guy's face was exactly like his own, and he was worried about how to refuse to meet Mao Lilan in the UK.

His original idea was to use a bow-tie voice changer and a loudspeaker to simulate his own speaking voice, just like how he usually controls Dr. Ali to reason in front of the police.

But after Kuroba Kaito woke up, he discovered that not only did this boy look exactly like him, he even spoke with a similar voice.

This is convenient, I don’t even need to dub the voice myself, I can just let him watch and speak for himself.

But Conan didn't expect that this guy's character was more "naughty" than he thought, and he actually dared to kiss his hand in front of his parents.

hateful!

Even I have never kissed Xiaolan’s hand!

"Whatever I say next, you will learn what to say..."

"Well, since everyone has come from afar, I will show my friendship as a landlord..."

Under the guidance of Conan in a low voice, Kaito Kuroba on the other side made the body movements that Kudo Shinichi should have, while reciting every word with emotion.

This kind of thing is not difficult for him as a phantom thief, and it is even relatively smooth and silky.

Only Dr. Ali, who understood everything, felt helpless and couldn't help but wonder, is this okay? His own invention was really played with by Shinichi...

"I heard from Conan that there is still some time before you have dinner with the rich woman who sponsored you, so why not do some sightseeing first..."

"Now that we've arrived in London, the first place we must go to is..."

"Baker Street!"

Kuroba Kaito's sudden roar startled Maori, the others, and the surrounding passers-by.

"What are you shouting all of a sudden?" Mao Lilan asked confused.

"Ah~" Kuroba Kaito quickly scratched his head, "I thought I could finally go to Baker Street, and I felt very happy..."

"Ah? Shinichi, haven't you been to Baker Street for so long since you came to England?" Mao Lilan asked.

"Yes." Kuroba Kaito smiled and nodded, "I am usually busy with commissions and have no time to travel. I finally asked for leave today..."

These lines were improvised by Kuroba Kaito without any guidance from Conan, but the effect was pretty good.

Hearing that Kudo Shinichi was working so hard abroad that he didn't even have the chance to go to the most famous Sherlock Holmes destination, Mao Lilan's eyes showed concern and reluctance.

I remember that I used to complain on the phone why the other party never showed up, but now it seems that I am too willful.

Although Shinichi worked so hard, I failed to understand him well...

What kind of childhood sweetheart are you?

Thinking of this, Mao Lilan's nose felt a little sour.

But in such a rare moment of vacation, she also knew that she must not cry and disrupt everyone's happy atmosphere.

Immediately, she raised her head, with a bright smile on her face, and took the initiative to take "Kudo Shinichi's" arm.

"Then let's take this opportunity to relax~"

"Shinichi!"

Under Mao Lilan's careless pull, Kuroba Kaito was like a kite pulled by a string, easily pulled towards the airport exit.

Hello!

Is this girl so strong?

Kuroba Kaito ran along, looking askance at the crowd next to him.

Uncle...

Did you hear what I was trying to convey?

At the same time, among the crowd on the other side of the exit passage, Qin Zhibo was hiding sideways behind a billboard.

Next stop is Baker Street?
