Few people probably know that Karasuma Renya is the boss of the brewery and an immortal monster.
To the average person, a deceased person who is nearly 100 years old would not be plotting anything or pursuing any career.
If he could live, he would do everything in his power to live as long as possible.
However, that doesn't seem to be wrong...
The drug that the distillery is researching, isn't it...?
While he was deep in thought, Akechi and Kaito Kuroba reached a consensus.
"Let's put the speculation about Karasuma Renya aside for now. It seems that the person who sent you, the 'famous detective,' in the name of Kaito Kid is most likely the current owner of the Twilight Mansion, Oogami Shuzen."
Yoruichi Toyama's eyebrows twitched.
"Have you considered that the other party might be inviting more than just me?"
"What? What does this mean?" Kaito Kuroba was clearly a little angry.
For him, the signature on the invitation was not a sophisticated word game; any detective with a modicum of skill could decipher it.
Wouldn't that be like throwing mud at him in front of so many detectives?
Mingzhi nodded.
"That's possible."
"If there are still unsolved mysteries in that Twilight Pavilion, or if that Grand Master of Ceremonies is plotting against some of the guests he invited..."
He stared intently at Yoruichi Toyama and Kaito Kuroba.
"It's hard to say what dangers you might encounter... In those remote mountains, there's probably no cell phone signal..."
"You need someone to provide backup outside."
...
Yoruichi Toyama readily accepted Akechi's advice, and Akechi himself drove her to the Twilight Mansion with Kaito Kuroba.
only……
"Can you please stop laughing! Focus on driving!"
A furious roar came from the cobalt blue BMW 750iL speeding along the mountain road.
"Watch your tone." Despite being reprimanded, Mingzhi didn't back down at all, his smiling gaze passing through his glasses as he looked at the rearview mirror.
"That was not the kind of thing a lady should say."
"You're ruining Akemi's image, aren't you, Kotaro-kun?"
The black cat, sitting in the passenger seat, meowed in agreement.
[Host, you should also be careful; you're currently impersonating Akemi...]
"You two, shut up!"
Yoruichi Toyama huffed and puffed, then leaned back in his chair with his arms crossed.
The silicone padding in front of my chest made me feel even more embarrassed.
And the unfortunate kid next to him, sporting his own face, only added fuel to the fire.
"Logically speaking, this is the best solution," Kaito Kuroba advised him gently.
"See, you won't let me show my true self, so I have to pretend to be someone else, right?"
"Then you asked me to impersonate Miss Mingmei, but I don't know her. What if I give myself away?"
"Your own disguise skills are top-notch, and we're all disguised as familiar people now, helping each other out, so there definitely won't be any problems!"
Well, thank you so much!
Yoruichi Toyama muttered to himself, but said nothing more.
Kaito Kuroba has gotten too familiar with me lately, and he's clearly taking advantage of my kindness.
At first, he actually suggested that he dress up as himself and go with his "younger brother".
They claimed, "I think we have great chemistry."
Of course, this proposal would not have been approved by Mingzhi.
You two are partners, one a former thief and the other a former murderer. The one in danger is Da Shang Zhu Shancai, right?
However, Akechi was very cautious this time. Not only did he agree to bring the Seven Sword Masters and others to meet him outside, but he also assigned dedicated phone lines to both Yoruichi and Toyama.
It is said that he himself had experience exploring ancient castles, so he thought about it a lot.
Yoruichi Toyama knew what he was referring to.
The "Wax Doll Castle" in the mountains of Nagano Prefecture, or Baldo Castle, once hosted an event that brought together many mystery enthusiasts.
In the end, it turned into a murder show.
The organizer, a mystery writer hidden among the invited guests, orchestrated this event to take revenge on an accomplice who robbed a bank with him years ago but later murdered him and his boyfriend.
Mingzhi attended the event because both the murderer and the victim were suspects in the robbery case his father had investigated years ago.
This is the infamous "300 million yen robbery" in Japanese history.
Because the criminal investigation capabilities and organizational level were quite backward at the time, coupled with Japan's bizarre legal regulations, this high-profile criminal case was ultimately left unresolved because the statute of limitations had expired.
The wise father felt his career was tarnished as a result, resigned in despair, and later died in depression.
Therefore, the idea of "summoning famous detectives for a castle adventure" inevitably evokes the image of wax figures, and the wax figure city conjures up images of a father caught between criminals and a backward police system, which is quite fitting for Akechi.
It's just that this guy who's always so flashy won't mention it.
Yoruichi Toyama didn't want to offer empty words of comfort, so she assured him that she would protect herself and the boy Kuroba who was traveling with her.
"Where's Conan? Will he go this time?"
Yoruichi Toyama thought to himself, "You've been involved with the Conan world a lot, so you've figured out who the real Grim Reaper is."
But...
"Neither Conan nor Ran are going."
"On the one hand, because the invitation was sent to Kogoro-san, and on the other hand..."
