"Squeak~"
"Bang!"
Like the smoke bombs that children play with, the small pearls emitted smoke, and then exploded like a small gift package, splashing out countless colored paper.
"Huh?"
"What's that noise!?"
"Pearls!! It's pearls!! The pearls exploded!!"
Everyone was in a panic as a man shouted, and immediately afterwards, several pearls rolled to the ground, attracting everyone's attention.
“Bang, bang, bang!!!”
The falling pearls exploded one after another. Although only smoke and even shredded paper and colorful streamers burst out, panic is contagious once it appears.
“Stop joking!!”
"How can you wear something like this?!"
Everyone took off the pearls on their bodies and threw them on the ground. The black pearls bounced on the ground and landed at other people's feet. From time to time, explosions continued to explode from under their feet, causing even greater panic.
"Hey! Stop pushing over there!!"
"It's a bomb!!"
"Run away! Get out of my way!"
Faced with this chaotic situation, even though the police officers on the scene tried their best to maintain order, no one listened to them. They were even unable to resist in the crowded crowd and were taken hostage to an unknown place.
At this moment, Tomoko Suzuki was knocked to the ground by the crowd, but just when Sonoko was panicked and worried, Xiaolan rushed over and protected Tomoko Suzuki.
"Are you okay?"
"Ah, it's okay. Thank you very much, Xiaolan."
With the support of Xiaolan, Suzuki Tomoko stood up, and Sonoko beside her also quickly rushed over, but Sonoko soon noticed a problem.
"Mom, your black pearl is gone too."
"ah?"
After being reminded by her daughter, Suzuki Tomoko hurriedly looked at the place on her chest where she wore the black pearl, but found that there was nothing there.
“Ugh…Ahhhhh!!!”
The screams swept across the entire venue, causing people around to stop in their tracks unconsciously.
"The Phantom Thief stole the Dark Star!!" Suzuki Tomoko screamed in panic.
"What!!?"
Nakamori Ginzo was shocked when he heard this. "So the one Mrs. Suzuki is wearing is the real one?"
At this moment, Tang Ze and Conan were whispering something, and then the two quickly came to Xiaolan and others.
At this moment, the crowded crowd on the side directly broke open the door of the venue, and the swarm of people all ran outside.
"Don't let anyone out!! There's a Phantom Thief among those escaping now!!"
"Sister Xiaolan! Let's go catch him too!!" Conan immediately grabbed Xiaolan's arm and said, "I already know who the Phantom Thief is!!"
"What!?"
In this crowded crowd, the two of them came directly to the computer room.
"Conan? This looks like a computer room, right?" Xiaolan looked around and hesitated, "Are there really thieves here?"
"Sister Xiaolan, do you know the meaning of gems?" Conan had a football in his hand and was playing with it.
"What does the gem mean?"
"Sister Sonoko's mother left a clue a long time ago. The real black pearl is placed on the person who best fits the meaning."
Conan explained while juggling the ball with a smile: "Pearls represent the moon and women.
And on the cruise ship, the only person whose name contains "月" is "Suzuki Tomoko", which means she is the one wearing it.
"Oh..." Xiaolan said at a loss: "But how can we know who the Phantom Thief is?"
"Yeah, yeah, you're still pretending." Tang Ze came out from the side and shook his head, "Mr. Kaito, you were exposed the moment you showed up. You look completely different now."
"smell?"
"The shampoo Lansang used today is a different brand than yours." Tang Ze shrugged and said, "Sorry, my sense of smell is very sensitive. I wouldn't be unaware of someone smelling different just because they're around me."
"I understand. Since you two suspect me, I'll call the police." Xiaolan said as she touched the landline phone hanging on the wall next to her.
“Bang!!”
The next moment, the football with terrifying force hit the phone next to the opponent's ear, and the terrifying power made his face change.
"Hmph, trying to pull that same trick of disappearing on the rooftop again?"
Conan sneered, "You called the police over that day not to mock me, but to disguise yourself as a police officer and blend into the crowd during the flash bomb.
I planned this meeting with Detective Tang Ze specifically to express my respect for you, the criminal artist."
Having said that, Conan stepped on the bouncing football, and his foot-strengthening shoes flashed a dazzling and terrifying light.
"There's something I agree with." Conan looked at Ran, who had a serious expression, and said, "Excellent artists almost always become famous after their death... So I decided to help you!
Send you to the graveyard of prison and the peak of your career!"
"I know, I know! Surrender!" Kaito Kidd wrapped the "Dark Star" in a handkerchief and threw it to Tang Ze beside him.
"Oh, and tell the lady I'm sorry for ruining her party."
"Stop talking nonsense!"
Conan snorted coldly, and before he could say anything, the thief who looked like Xiaolan tugged at the murder weapon's dress and said, "Oh, that girl who lent me her clothes is still lying on the lifeboat. If you don't go quickly, she'll catch a cold~"
As he spoke, he pulled out the "Omen" from his clothes and said with a wicked smile: "I can't help it, who made me a perfectionist~~"
"What!!"
Thinking of Xiaolan's appearance at the moment, Conan immediately lost his composure and blushed.
“Flash bomb!!”
The next moment, Kaito Kidd seized this moment and threw out a flash bomb. For a moment, the entire space was covered by white light.
“Da da da!!”
The sound of hurried footsteps continued to be heard, and in a panic, Conan immediately picked up the clothes that fell on the ground and ran towards the lifeboat.
But Conan didn't notice in his panic that Tang Ze beside him had also disappeared.
"Are you a dog?! I forgot you have a good nose. You can keep chasing me. Are you really tracking me by smell?!"
Kaito Kidd, who was constantly running away, couldn't help but complain when he saw Tang Ze chasing him relentlessly.
"Haha, I can't pretend I didn't hear that. Even though I have a keen sense of smell, I don't like people calling me that."
Tang Ze sneered upon hearing this and said, "And this isn't based on my sense of smell. I just saw through your little trick. After all, when dealing with a cunning thief like you, you have to be wary of any implications in every move."
As he spoke, Tang Ze burst out with his feet and caught up with Kaito Kidd, and his arm burst out like a bow and blasted straight forward!
