Chapter 13221330 [Competitor]

Suzuki Sonoko would never be troubled by a problem for too long - if she couldn't figure it out, she would stop thinking about it. She nodded secretly: There is no point in guessing about this kind of thing. Once she is a little more familiar with it, she can just ask Pu Siqinglan directly.

She quickly came to her senses and looked at her watch: "Let's go upstairs first."

…

A group of people walked into the building one after another.

As they walked, a perceptive high school student turned around and secretly glanced at Jiang Xia.

Hattori Heiji: "..." Why does it feel like Jiang Xia is particularly interested in this Miss Pu Si Qinglan? Could it be that Jiang Xia actually likes this type?

Gossip is human nature, and when high school boys and girls gossip together, they are equally focused.

When Hattori Heiji thought of this, he turned his head to look at Pu Si Qinglan, then at Jiang Xia, and then at Toyama Kazuha, and suddenly heaved a sigh of relief.

Yuanshan Heye looked at him in confusion: "Why are you breathing at me? Do you have any objection?"

"Can't I even breathe?" Hattori Heiji retorted instinctively, and then he felt a little confused himself.

He turned the hat on his head in confusion: What kind of person Jiang Xia likes is none of his business? If he had time to think divergently, he might as well think about how to catch the Kaito Kidd. Although he was always slower than Jiang Xia in solving murder cases, Jiang Xia seemed to have no interest in the affairs of the Kaito.

Phantom thieves and murders do sound like two completely different cases. But solving the mystery of the thieves is also a mystery, and it means winning a chance to think freely around Jiang Xia... Thinking about it, Hattori Heiji's eyes ignited with a strong fighting spirit.

…

Several people entered the Suzuki Art Museum and took the elevator to the VIP room on the top floor.

A fat, amiable middle-aged man happened to pass by, and Suzuki Sonoko waved at him: "Dad!"

Suzuki Shiro was startled and turned his head. Seeing them, he smiled and said, "Are you up? Haha, the detectives from Kansai and Kanto are finally here - I'll trouble you with the 'Egg of Memories'."

"..." Conan felt a bit complicated when he heard this: the term "Kansai detective" and "Kanto detective" had actually reached the ears of his elders? And it was as if he had assumed that "Kanto detective" was referring to Jiang Xia. Was Kudo Shinichi really a former Kanto detective who had passed away...

As he thought about it, he couldn't help but snorted: Damn Black Organization, they really should be made to taste the feeling of becoming smaller.

Chairman Suzuki was unaware of the resentment coming from the fake child and gestured to the corridor behind them: "Let's go into the reception room first."

…

There was already someone in the reception room.

Shiro Suzuki briefly introduced the high school students: "These are the guests who came for the 'Egg of Memories'."

"This is the first secretary of the Russian Embassy, ​​Siruov Chinikov." He pointed to a sturdy Russian man, and then introduced them one by one in a clockwise direction, "and the art dealer I invited, Gan Jiangyi. This is the freelance photographer who wants to take pictures of the 'Egg of Memories', Kanchuan Long. Hmm..."

Shiro Suzuki remembered something and turned to a group of high school students next to him. His eyes fell on Pu Siqinglan who was following Jiang Xia.

"By the way, there is also the Romanov dynasty researcher next to you, Pu Siqinglan."

The chairman was obviously a little confused about Pu Siqinglan's position and asked Jiang Xia: "Do you know each other?"

Jiang Xia nodded: "I accidentally fell into the river last night and happened to get on her boat."

Shiro Suzuki was stunned. Why was a scholar rowing in the river so late at night?

But mature adults wouldn't ask too many questions, and he soon figured it out himself: maybe he has some unique hobby.

Suzuki Shiro didn't bother any more and pointed to the empty seats in the reception room: "Come and sit down."

Suzuki Sonoko touched her chin cautiously, and suddenly pushed Jiang Xia to the edge of the sofa. Then, at the moment when Pu Siqinglan wanted to follow, she sat down next to Jiang Xia first.

On one side of Jiangxia is Suzuki Sonoko, and on the other side is just air, so no one can sit.

"..." Pu Siqinglan narrowed her eyes silently, feeling that she was being targeted, and a murderous intent silently rose from her body.

But soon, she noticed that the young detective looked up at her, then turned to look at the seat next to him, as if he was deeply regretful that he could not sit next to her.

Pu Siqinglan's mood instantly recovered a little.

But soon, she discovered that Jiang Xia had no dissatisfaction with Suzuki Sonoko for separating them. In fact, when Suzuki Sonoko looked at him, he nodded very kindly, as if he was encouraging something.

Pu Siqinglan: “?”

It turns out that Volkswagen Air Conditioning is a company that is considerate of women and wants to keep both sides stable.

Haha, scumbag.

Be patient and accompany Jiang Xia to act out the love at first sight for a while, and once you get the "Egg of Memories", turn him into a dead scumbag.

The thief, who had killed countless people, sat upright on the sofa, felt the poison hidden in his body, and soon calmed down.

…

Suzuki Sonoko didn't think too much about it, she just intuitively felt that something was wrong with Pu Siqinglan. She also found that Pu Siqinglan seemed to always sneak a peek at Jiang Xia, but her eyes were different from those of the wives who usually sneaked a peek at Jiang Xia, so she wanted to separate the two.

Now that they were separated successfully, Suzuki Sonoko forgot about it. Her attention was quickly drawn to the strange-looking people on the other side: "Dad, do you have other guests?"

Suzuki Shiro smiled and nodded: "These people are all very interested in the 'Egg of Memories'."

——It just so happened that Kid was coming to steal the treasure today, and the police strongly requested him not to let the guests in, so as to increase the difficulty for Kid to steal the treasure and thus increase the risk of him being exposed. Suzuki Shiro agreed.

But the exhibition hall is open after all. It's really boring to be so dry without any customers.

Since he had nothing to do anyway and these people came here because they wanted to visit him, Shiro Suzuki simply let them in.

But soon, he discovered that it was true that they all came here because of its reputation, and it was also true that they all coveted the egg.

——After chatting for a while, the topic returned to the transfer of the "Egg of Memories".

…

The art dealer twirled his beard and thought, "I'd estimate it to be around 800 million."

As he spoke, he glanced at Suzuki Shiro and found that he didn't seem to be interested at all, so he changed his words and said, "Of course, if you really want to sell it, I can offer a higher price."

The embassy staff was anxious and stood up: "This is a cultural relic of our country that has been lost abroad. Instead of selling it to this profiteer who came from nowhere, it is better to donate it to our country's art museum!"

"Swindler?" Gan Jiang snorted coldly, "People like you who try to get something for nothing are more like scammers!"

Next to them, the photographer who came to collect footage suddenly laughed, raised his camera, and started filming the two people arguing, looking like he was concentrating on enjoying the fun.

Thanks to Huan Yang for the reward~
