"1, 2, 3.... Yeah, Brother Kid, 8 mice have come in."
In Dr. Agasa's residence, Hongshu sat on a chair, holding a bottle of Happy Water in his left hand and a Yummy Bar in his right hand, and a bag of potato chips in his arms. The fluorescent light on the screen illuminated his slightly raised cheeks as he continued to chew.
Standing at the highest point, Kidd, with his cloak fluttering, listened to the voice coming from the headphones and looked at the huge crowd below with a somewhat depressed expression:
"Hey Hongshu, is this appropriate? Are we going a little too far?"
"Are you scared?"
"Don't talk nonsense, I have nothing to be afraid of!"
"I'm afraid that Brother Makoto Sakaki will take revenge on me later. He's a very petty person and he will never let go of his grudges."
"....You knew that and you still dared to do this with me?"
When Kidd thought about the possibility of Makoto Sakaki losing 100 million, his legs started to tremble. Last time he stole the Dark Star, nothing happened, but Makoto Sakaki came to settle accounts with him like an angry lion. If he really had to pay 100 million this time...
He must be eaten alive!
Kidd was an eyewitness to how Makoto Sakaki made all that money, so he has the most say and knows the life-and-death process clearly.
Every penny is hard-earned money!
If Hongshu hadn't been bewitching him to take this opportunity to play a trick on Sakaki Makoto and the others, Kidd would never have done this!
"I'm just bored..."
The sound of chewing potato chips came from the headphones, followed by the bubbling sound of carbonated drinks:
"Hic~ Originally I just wanted to tease Conan, but I didn't expect that big brother Makoto Sakaki would also come. Then let's play together. Games are fun only when everyone plays together!"
"But this game costs money..."
"It's only 100 million. I can pay for it. My bank card is in the hands of big brother Makoto Sakaki anyway."
Hongshu never had any feelings for money, and the money he earned was an astronomical figure:
"Don't let me win! It will be meaningless if you do!"
"Let the water go?"
Kidd laughed in silence:
"You think too highly of me. With all these people gathered together, I can't afford to let them win. Even if I go all out, I may not win!"
"Then again, why did you design such a game? First you locked up Brother Makoto Sakaki and the others, and then you let Hattori Heiji rescue them. It's like Dragon Quest!"
"It's Dragon Quest!"
Hongshu said confidently:
"I think this game that Liz just played is pretty good, so I'll use it directly. Brother Makoto Sakaki and his friends are the princesses imprisoned in the Demon King's castle! Those eight mice are the heroes. They have to defeat you, the Demon King, and take on the responsibility of saving the princess!"
"Hey, hey, hey, we are in the same group, right? It sounds like you're rooting for them to win!"
"I'm the planner, so it doesn't matter who wins!"
Kidd felt that if he continued talking to Hongshu, he would be so angry that he would die.
"Where are Hattori and the others?"
"We're almost at the monitoring room....Why are you staying on the roof instead of going to steal the gems?"
"The other gems are fake. The real gem is hanging around the neck of the dog that Suzuki Jikichiro... keeps."
"Are you afraid of dogs?"
"I'm not afraid, but the dog is in the central exhibition hall. How can I steal it?"
Pouting, Kidd changed his pose:
"Wait until Hattori and the others come out of the monitoring room. That will be the best time for me to take action."
...............................
"Brother Hattori, this door is locked and can't be opened."
Megure Juzo and his companions reached the monitoring room along the only passage and met the staff from the maintenance department. Now they only needed to open the door to unlock the exhibition hall map.
"Leave it to us."
Several staff members from the maintenance department stepped forward, took out tools, and began to dismantle the door lock. "Dismantling" actually meant opening the control panel, cutting off the connection between the door and the system, and regaining control.
This is one of the mission points. Hongshu will certainly not interfere. He is now sitting with his feet up and eating potato chips, looking at the people in the corridor through the surveillance screen, grinning slyly.
On the other side, inside the central exhibition hall.
"What should I do now?"
Suzuki Sonoko, wearing a red evening gown, paced around the room and couldn't calm down:
"We've been locked up in there for so long, the gem must have been stolen by Mr. Kidd! I want to see him!"
Click!
Kyogoku Makoto suddenly crushed the bottle in his hand.
"Well, don't worry, there's no way Kidd could steal the gem."
Although he was locked up, Suzuki Jikichiro remained calm. He picked up the dog that was laughing and sticking out its tongue at his feet and said:
"The real Emerald Emperor is on Lupin's body. Kidd can't get him!"
From the beginning, Suzuki Jikichiro had never exhibited the gemstones. Makoto Sakaki and others thought that the gemstones had been placed on the exhibition stand, but they did not expect that Suzuki Jikichiro had hidden something else....
"It seems that he never intended to let Kidd steal the gem from the beginning."
Conan whispered:
"He actually hid the gem on the dog. If he didn't tell me, who would have guessed it?"
"Brother Kidd will definitely guess it."
Sakaki glanced at him and said calmly:
"Why else would Kidd disguise himself as Kyogoku Makoto and stay with us? He was originally planning to wait for an opportunity to strike. Think about the third sentence of the notice. He will emerge from the darkness and take away the Emerald Emperor. Of course, he was referring to the lights suddenly going out, and when they came back on, the gem was gone."
