4:50 pm, Central Exhibition Hall, Sumida-ku, Tokyo.
"Pull up the blockade! No idlers are allowed to come near!"
The security personnel wearing headphones and sunglasses shouted loudly:
"There must be nothing wrong with today's art exhibition! Cheer up!"
Not far away, the Crown car that Sakaki and the five people were riding in was also stopped outside the cordon. No matter what Mouri Kogoro said, they refused to let it go and did not give the great detective any face.
"Damn it, are these people intoxicated?"
With no other choice, Mouri Kogoro had no choice but to reverse the car, planning to find a place nearby to stop first before contacting Suzuki Sonoko.
"This art exhibition seems not to be open to the general public. Those who are eligible to participate are prominent figures in society."
Conan lay on the window, looking at the luxury cars arriving one after another outside and said:
"It seems we can only wait for Yuanzi to come out to pick us up."
After parking the car, Mouri Kogoro found a place to sit down with a depressed look on his face, tugging on his neat tie, feeling a little irritable.
Being hit one after another throughout the day would make anyone unhappy!
"What are you talking about? I, Mouri Kogoro, am I a bastard?"
"Dad, please stop complaining. They are also following orders. After all, the people attending this time are all big shots."
Mao Lilan put down the phone and came over to persuade.
At this moment, Sakaki and the others saw a taxi being stopped where they were just now, and then a dark-skinned young man got out of the car, with a strong build, bright eyes, and thick eyebrows. Wearing a Band-Aid, it felt like one punch could break a concrete pillar.
"Kyogoku Makoto!"
Conan was shocked:
"Why is he here?"
"Yuanzi must have invited him!"
Mao Lilan waved to Kyogoku:
"I'm Yuanzi's boyfriend. It's not like someone who disappears all day long."
His facial muscles stiffened, and Conan silently closed his mouth, remained silent, and began to reduce his sense of presence.
He always felt that there was something in Mao Lilan's words, but maybe he was overthinking.
"Mr. Sakaki Makoto, Miss Mori."
Kyogoku, who was also stopped, came over and nodded as a greeting.
"When did you come back from the United States?"
"I came back a month ago."
"What is the strength of America's opponents?"
"Mediocre."
"oh"
Kyogoku Makoto's "fair", of course, is not a simple literal meaning, but in his opinion, the karate masters in the United States are almost the same as his previous opponents. They are all a bunch of chickens and dogs, vulnerable to a single blow.
Fair enough is a euphemism, after all.
You have to respect your opponent.
"Brother Kyogoku, why are you wearing a suit today?"
Conan suddenly noticed that Kyogoku was dressed differently today than before. He abandoned his white gi and wore a white suit and even a bow tie.
".Sonoko requested."
Kyogoku moved his shoulders, his movements were weird, and he seemed very uncomfortable:
"She asked me to wear a suit today. I don't know the specific reason."
"A blind date! It must be a blind date!"
Patting his thigh, Conan said firmly:
"Sonoko's mother has been organizing blind dates for her before. Today's visitors are all high-class people. If nothing else, this is not an ordinary exhibition, but a blind date meeting of the Suzuki family!"
The corner of his mouth twitched imperceptibly, and Kyogoku's face looked slightly unnatural, looking anxious.
"Talk about it"
Mao Lilan covered her mouth and said in surprise:
"Sonoko's mother seems to have always disagreed with Kyogoku-kun and Sonoko falling in love. If Conan is right, then today..."
The air suddenly became extremely awkward. Kyogoku really didn't expect that today would be a Hongmen Banquet. The key point was that Sonoko didn't say anything to him and didn't prepare anything in a hurry. What should he do?
"Really! Xiaolan!"
There was a call from a distance, and Sonoko, who was holding her dress in both hands, ran over carelessly without caring about other people's eyes, attracting the side glances of the surrounding guests.
"You're finally here, I thought you were in some kind of trouble!"
Sonoko's eyes were completely focused on Kyogoku Makoto, and she didn't even notice Sakaki Makoto and Miss Miyano on the side. She only saw her looking at Kyogoku Makoto from top to bottom and nodding frequently:
"You look handsome in a suit! I really have good taste! Come on, come on, come in with me!"
Under her leadership, everyone successfully passed through the cordon and entered the exhibition hall through the back door.
The exhibition hall of the University of Nuovo is splendid and magnificent. It was built by the Suzuki Consortium with huge investment. Even the paintings in the corridor are made by famous artists and are of great value.
When they arrived at the lounge, everyone saw a bald old man with a beard and beard. He was sitting in front of the fireplace reading a newspaper. There was also a brown Doberman wearing aviator glasses lying on the seat next to him. The combination was extremely weird.
"Uncle Jijiro, it turns out you are here."
Seeing the old man, Suzuki Sonoko subconsciously took a step back and introduced helplessly:
"This is the consultant of our Suzuki Foundation, my uncle, Suzuki Jikichiro."
The old man sitting on the sofa looked back at Sonoko. He didn't have any reaction at first, but when he glanced at Sakaki, he suddenly became energetic. He rushed forward and said excitedly:
"You must be Sakaki Makoto who protected the Dark Star from Kidd last time!"
Sakaki was startled by his sudden movement:
"It's me, what's your business?"
"Great! Today you and I will join forces and we will surely catch Kidd!"
Suzuki Jikichiro didn't answer Sakaki's question at all. He was immersed in his own world and talked eloquently:
"My favorite thing in my life is to travel around the world, collect famous paintings and gems, and win many gold medals and trophies, but there is only one thing that bothers me."
"ha"
Sakaki still didn't know what he was going to do.
Suzuki Sonoko on the side saw this and said with a headache:
"Uncle Jiyoshiro's current dream is to capture Kidd-sama! He funded the construction of this exhibition hall. There are many mechanisms inside. Even I have to be careful. Uncle Jiyoshiro also said that as long as Kidd-sama dares to come, , he will definitely catch him!”
Someone in the room suddenly sneered, the sound was so small that no one except Sakaki Makoto and Conan heard it.
"Didn't you protect the Dark Star Code from Lord Kidd last time?"
Suzuki Sonoko said:
"After Uncle Jiyoshi found out about this, he thought you were a talented person and planned to let you help him and fight against Kidd-sama together!"
"That's right!"
Suzuki Jikichiro held Sakaki's hands with fiery eyes and said with a trembling voice:
"I heard from Yuanzi that you not only have a strong sense of responsibility and outstanding abilities, but you also ask for a low salary! Talents like you are exactly what I need!"
