Chapter 930: Civil War Among Thieves

"Hmm, so the so-called traveling under one's own identity is just a matter of changing a conspicuous position?"

Sitting next to Karasawa, Hoshikawa Teru took advantage of the gap between Mouri Kogoro and others before they took their seats and sighed softly.

When it comes to coming to Osaka, the situation is actually not much different from the last time. It’s just that this time the seats on the train were changed from a hidden position to one of them.

Considering that something happened again on the return train, it didn't take long for this secret to be hidden before Tang Ze caught him and took him on board...

"Sitting somewhere silently by yourself is different from sitting openly and openly chatting among everyone." Karasawa corrected with a wiggle of his finger, "Although if you want to stay in the Phantom Thieves for the rest of your life, no one will reject you, but It’s still necessary to get in touch with people outside the group.”

"It's not like I haven't been in contact..." Hoshikawa Teru sighed, and only stopped talking when his eyes noticed the approaching Mouri Kogoro and others.

"It's really convenient to work for the Suzuki family." Sitting down on the seat across from him, Mouri Kogoro stretched out, "I wouldn't even consider business private rooms before when I was on a business trip."

"The conditions are not too different." Conan adjusted his seat, "It feels like there's not much difference."

"It's good not to be disturbed by others." Almost instinctively, Hoshikawa Teru immediately changed his expression and entered the mode of Akechi Goro, "If it is public transportation with too many people, sometimes it will be a little troublesome."

He said it was very true.

As the organization builds momentum and Akechi Goro himself handles more and more eye-catching cases due to various work reasons, they appear on newspaper pages and news headlines. Once he travels as Akechi Goro, let Xingchuan Hui's troubled star career began.

If possible, he really wanted to stay in the stronghold instead of standing on the street and being watched like a monkey.

"Mr. Mingzhi, don't you like this kind of life?" Mao Lilan looked at his smiling profile curiously, "If you really don't want to be watched and watched, why do you do so many variety shows?"

This was her question from the bottom of her heart.

If the frequency of appearing on TV shows is reduced, even a famous detective will not be as likely to cause congestion and sensation as an entertainer.

Just like Shinichi in the past, although he does receive fan letters from all over the country and even some overseas, including many exaggerated and excessive expressions of love, the impact on daily life is still limited.

Xingchuan Hui gave Tang Ze a vague look with a hint of death.

How do I know? You should ask the leader. This is not a good thing I did...

With this murmur in his heart, the smile on Xingchuan Hui's face showed no signs of collapse. He just followed the design that had been decided long ago and replied lightly: "I really don't like it that much, but it feels good to be able to help. In addition, Since I can do this, I definitely want to do my best.”

This sentence is an excuse for both Akechi Goro's false identity and his inherent attributes as an organizational member.

For the organization, Kumail, who has been living in the darkness for more than ten years, will of course want everyone's admiration and attention once he sees the light of day. He becomes a household name as quickly as possible with an almost vengeful attitude. , is very logical and consistent with the development of his lunatic nature.

For those who are super-powerful killers, personal popularity will be like the Phantom Thieves who need to rely on being famous in society to step into the deeper layers of the subway. Only by becoming the most famous detective, Kumail's ability Only in this way can it be displayed to the greatest extent.

By joining the Phantom Thieves in this capacity, this help will naturally radiate to the Phantom Thieves. This is why Hoshikawa Teru has always resisted, but has never refused this role-playing mode.

"Is it possible to do it instead of wanting to do it..." Mao Lilan nodded thoughtfully.

"If you don't go all out, you will be ruthlessly left behind by this world." Hoshikawa Teru skillfully bent his eyes and smiled, "Just like your... that detective, Kudo-kun. He has been missing for a little longer. At one point, not only the media, but also his classmates began to regard him as a legend that has passed."

This was not a trick that Karasawa specifically asked him to memorize, but as time went by, Hoshikawa Teru was gradually able to step into this false role and try to speak from the other person's perspective.

In Karasawa's words, this version of Akechi Goro is, after all, a person who incorporates some of Hoshikawa Teru's own characteristics. As long as he overcomes the embarrassing acting obstacle, try to guess how Akechi Goro would speak and speak in a similar background. , some things will come out naturally without careful design and thinking.

For example, as a rising star and an invader who used the effect of public opinion and the media to slowly fade Kudo Shinichi's name in one fell swoop, how would Akechi Goro, standing in this position, view Kudo Shinichi? The answer is obvious.

"Hey..." Conan's mouth twitched after he had just adjusted the seat.

What kind of adjective is this? How can I say it as if the others are almost gone?

And he is only temporarily missing. How does this guy talk about losing dogs in such a calm and calm tone...

"Well, it makes sense..." Mao Lilan seemed to be convinced by him and nodded slowly, "Thinking about it this way, you really worked hard to be a detective. Handle each one properly among so many sights. Commissioning is definitely very difficult.”

Hoshikawa Teru tilted his head: "If you don't go all out, you will definitely feel regret and remorse once you are left behind. In contrast, it's not a big problem to work harder."

"No wonder Dad said that you are the most clear-minded and successful high school detective." Mao Lilan laughed.

"I didn't say that." Mao Li Kogoro, who had just picked up the newspaper, immediately denied it, "I just think this is the healthy private detective model. It's also good to be a public welfare detective without asking for anything in return, but it's too childish. And Mingzhi, you kid is too cunning to just think of yourself as a detective now."

"Dad..."

Hoshikawa Teru kept his elbows on the armrest and smiled as he watched them talk.

Although he was still in a very energy-consuming role-playing mode, his tense nerves were slowly relaxing.

These people were good people that Tang Ze recognized as trustworthy, and Tang Ze had been their neighbors and classmates for a long time.

Even if he was not surrounded by his teammates in the Phantom Thieves Team, it seemed that there was really nothing to worry about.

His smile only lasted until the JR arrived at the station.

"Here, here, Xiaolan, Akechi-kun!"

Hearing Suzuki Sonoko's suddenly rising tone, Hoshikawa Teru secretly said something bad, but before he could dodge, she had already hugged his arm and came up to him.

"Don't be like this, Miss Sonoko." Hoshikawa Teru first instinctively observed the surroundings and confirmed that there were no dark-skinned men, then he breathed a sigh of relief, "It's not good to let your boyfriend misunderstand."

"Boyfriend, what's that..." Suzuki Sonoko coughed, and finally retracted a little, and loosened his elbow with reserve, "If you are talking about Azhen, don't worry, I didn't hide anything from him, he won't mind."

Whether he minds or wants to open up is none of my business. I'm afraid that he will be upset and make me open up.

Hoshikawa Teru, who has witnessed how Kyogoku Makoto pierced through an armed helicopter with a steel bar, said that it's better to forget it.

Maori Kogoro, who had been watching them coldly for a while, came over slowly after seeing him get away: "What's next, shall we go to the art museum first?"

"Of course. The police here have assisted our security in taking protective measures, but we must let the detectives take a look." Suzuki Sonoko smiled brightly, "The car is outside, let's go!"

Suzuki Sonoko was originally a passionate person, somewhat self-acquainted and carefree, but anyone could see that she was more enthusiastic today than before. It seemed that she was very happy to successfully take over the exhibition layout of an art museum.

"...The specifications are so high." Looking at the stretched sedan and the dazzling car logo in front of him, Maori Kogoro's mouth twitched.

After spending a long time with Suzuki Sonoko, sometimes I really forget that she is the descendant of a wealthy family.

"Of course, this is an important moment to meet with Mr. Kidd, and there will be an epic meeting between Akechi-kun and Kidd, so it has to be grand!" Suzuki Sonoko said, clasping her hands together and imagining, "If, in the exhibition hall that I helped to set up, a competition between detectives and thieves could take place, this scene would be too..."

"Sonoko..." Ran Mouri reached out and pulled her before her saliva flowed down from her fantasy

"Well, anyway, in addition to all kinds of security specifications, I also hired some photographers." Suzuki Sonoko pressed the corner of her mouth to cover up, "It will definitely be possible to take epic and wonderful pictures, right, Mr. Nishino?"

"Miss, the camera equipment in the exhibition hall is ready, but since it's the thief Kidd, it may not be of much use." The man who had been driving silently in front heard her call and responded immediately.

"It doesn't matter if they are useless. If they can capture the moment of destruction, their mission is accomplished." Suzuki Sonoko waved her hand, "As long as we can capture the scene of the dream of Mr. Kidd appearing, everything will be fine! Anyway, I don't want to catch him."

Dream of Kidd or something...

The corners of Maori Kogoro's mouth have been twitching since she opened her mouth.

If Officer Nakamori heard this, he would be so angry that he would die...

"Oh, by the way, this is Mr. Masato Nishino, my father's secretary. This time, because I am responsible for the exhibition, my father sent him to help me." Suzuki Sonoko pointed to the tall figure in front of her, "He has been traveling all over the world, so he is proficient in many languages. English, French and German are all professional. I need to trouble him for this reception."

"Please give me more advice." Masato Nishino tilted his head, "Because this involves the 51st Easter egg that accidentally appeared in the world, many scholars from all over the world who study related content have come here specially. I just help a little in this regard."

"It's amazing..." Ran Maoli was stunned by what she heard, and finally felt that her bestie was doing business seriously this time.

As they talked, the car drove smoothly all the way through the river of Osaka Castle, passed the Osaka Prefecture Police Headquarters, and finally slowly stopped in front of the unique and eye-catching art museum.

"Did you supervise the construction of this place?" After opening the car door and getting out, Maori Kogoro looked up at the building in front of him and suddenly felt a strong sense of unreality. "It's really exaggerated..."

He always thought that Suzuki Sonoko's so-called collector's claim was simply because she fell in love with Kitagawa Yusuke because of his face, but she accidentally met a good horse, so she accidentally planted willows and willows became shades. But when he saw the large-scale building complex in front of him, he had a little sense that even if it was just some marginal industries of the Suzuki family in the art field, Suzuki Sonoko had indeed embarked on her own path.

"Ah, not completely." Looking at the unique building in front of her, Suzuki Sonoko shrugged, "The building is responsible for special design and review personnel. I just looked at the renderings a few times in the middle, and then asked Kitagawa to give some opinions on the exhibition..."

"...So this exhibition also involves Kitagawa brother?" Conan, who knew Kitagawa Yusuke's true identity, thought of the other party's last obsessive-compulsive painting exhibition and those exaggerated anti-theft measures for exhibits, and his eyebrows jumped hard.

How should I put it? Let this person participate in the design exhibition, and finally use it to fight against Kaito Kidd...

Isn't their boss Joker on good terms with Kidd? Are they aware of this operation of one's own people fighting against one's own people? Or is it because they are in the same industry that they are more likely to do something dirty?

So on the surface, this wave is the detectives VS Kaito Kidd, but in fact, it is the heart thief VS Kaito Kidd, a war between the thieves?

Conan, who didn't know that he was the truth in every sense, thought so and felt that this title was really weird.

Hoshikawa Teru and Karasawa, who were also enjoying this scene, raised their hands at the same time and pressed their itchy noses.

"With such strict security, it feels like even an ant can't fly in, right?" Maori Kogoro looked around the security guards of the entire art museum with a critical eye and said from the bottom of his heart.

"Of course. The opponent is Kaito Kid." Suzuki Sonoko puffed out her chest, "He is..."

"... a gentleman thief who appears and disappears at will and changes freely. No matter how strict the security is or how solid the vault is, he will crack it miraculously. It is said that he is a master of disguise who can imitate and change his appearance and voice at will..."

A familiar voice came from behind, and several people turned their heads.

Then they saw Hattori Heiji taking off his motorcycle helmet and looking at the group of people standing there with a somewhat provocative expression.

"Is this really a problem, detectives?"
