Gulp gulp.....
At 9:30 in the morning, hot water was bubbling in the coffee machine, and the aroma of burnt coffee filled the entire room.
Sakaki Makoto poured the brewed coffee into a white porcelain cup and brought it to the living room along with the heated pork cutlet sandwich.
"Is this what you're eating in the morning?"
Kidd looked at the sandwich that filled up half of the plate with a little disdain:
"It's nothing compared to the feast we had last night!"
"There are some bones left by Conan in the garbage bag at the door. Can I heat them up for you?"
"....No thanks, the sandwich is good, it's a combination of meat and vegetables, and it's nutritionally balanced."
Kidd flatly refused, took a bite of the sandwich, and said vaguely:
"Don't you guys watch the news in the morning?"
Miss Miyano glanced at him, grabbed the remote control and pressed the power button.
Beep one——
Suddenly, the electric current flowed through the diode behind the screen, and the black screen flickered, covered with a thin layer of static electricity. Soon the picture lit up, and a female host held the microphone and talked.
[Morning news, a poisoning case occurred in Beika Town last night. The criminal poisoned the wine glass with great skill, but was caught on the spot by the late detective Maori Kogoro. Now let's hand over the footage to the frontline reporters.]
The scene changed and the big face of Kogoro Mouri appeared. The other policemen who were working on the case all night looked listless, but he was the only one who looked energetic, as if he had a good sleep.
[Eh... Well, actually I have always known my own strengths. Solving cases is a piece of cake for me. Unfortunately, I was late and failed to prevent the case from happening...]
Sakaki Makoto and the other two stared at the TV in a daze, forgetting even to eat.
"This kid is really poisonous!"
After a while, Kidd pointed at the TV and shouted:
"Look at his harmless face! Damn! If this were in a crime drama, he would definitely be the protagonist!"
"That's right, and you, the great thief, should be his lifelong enemy."
Miss Miyano blew the steam off her coffee and said with a smile:
"I've already thought of the title for the show, Detective Conan vs. Kaito Kid. It has a lot of selling points and will definitely last for several seasons."
"Come on, with his two moves, he is definitely no match for me!"
Kidd curled his lips in disdain.
"That's hard to say. Don't underestimate the power of the protagonist. The author can use his pen to make Conan use EVA's Absolute Domain or Star Platinum. Can you take it?"
"Absolute Domain seems to be a defensive move. Instead of using this big move that shouldn't appear in a detective drama, it would be more effective to let a beautiful girl wearing black maid stockings lift her skirt in front of me with a look of disgust... I promise not to run away, and I will watch it to the end even if I die."
"Wow, you have a lot of dreams, young man!"
Sakaki Makoto agrees with Kidd's statement:
"You are so excited... ahem, you young people really have impure thoughts. Why are you still playing with maids wearing black stockings... can't you wear white stockings?"
"Sure!"
Kidd, who didn't notice the coldness in Miss Miyano's gaze, said excitedly:
"Black silk, white silk, flesh silk, no matter what kind of silk, I will accept it all!"
"Then why don't you rent a girlfriend for a day."
Miss Miyano put the coffee cup heavily on the table and smiled contemptuously:
"It won't be a problem to have them wear maid costumes and accompany you to visit tourist attractions."
“That’s so shameful….”
After imagining the scene that was bound to attract everyone's attention, Kidd licked his lips and said regretfully:
"My wallet can only support me renting an old man."
"Hello, old man!"
Sakaki Makoto's eyes lit up:
"Old men have many resources and a broad vision! Just think about it, how much does it cost to rent an old man? 10,000 yen at most! A maid for one day costs at least 100,000+! And the old men have granddaughters. If you make the old men happy, they will match you up with them. Not only will you be happy, but you will also get a beautiful granddaughter, and solve the problem of old-age care at the same time. It's really killing three birds with one stone. You must be one of the next Top Ten Outstanding Young People in Tokyo!"
"Hiss... Mainly because the old man in a maid outfit is a bit eye-catching, I can't stand it."
Kidd was vaguely moved.
"puff!"
Hearing that he was going to let the old man wear a maid outfit, Miss Miyano couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of coffee and said angrily:
"You rented the old man so he could wear a maid outfit?"
"What else? Ordinary clothes have no soul! And wasn't it you who suggested wearing maid costumes?"
"I....."
Miss Miyano's eyes widened, she stammered and couldn't speak, she was in a mess.
This was the first time she was left speechless. Kidd's rebuttal was too sharp. Moreover, she had not expected that the topic could be diverted from a beautiful 18-year-old maid to an old man in his twilight years!
It was so sudden, I was totally unprepared!
This does seem to be a business opportunity...
"Why hasn't Brother Hattori come yet?"
After finishing the last bite of sandwich and drinking the last sip of coffee, it was already 10 o'clock in the morning. Sakaki Cheng looked at the remaining sandwich and the completely cold coffee on the plate and took out his phone:
"I'll give him a call and ask."
He pulled up the address book, found Hattori Heiji's number, and dialed it.
beep...
beep...
"Brother Hattori? Where are you now?"
After the call was connected, Sakaki Makoto asked directly:
