After that, Fang Zheng finally had a few days of leisure, and the Shimokasa sisters also reported in soon. Just as Fang Zheng expected, the Arimori Hotel would not be able to continue operating in the short term after such an incident. All the employees were laid off, and as for Miss Shinobu Shimon, she seemed to have gone to a nearby hotel to continue working as a chef.
This pair of sisters is in a very miserable situation. After all, when applying for a job, they will look at your resume. If they see that you have been a dead end everywhere, they will definitely not hire you.
So the sisters had no choice but to report to Fang Zheng.
By the way, Fang Zheng was also very curious. If Kudo Shinichi didn't shrink now, he would just be a high school student. After he graduated, which place would dare to hire him?
Do I have to follow Kogoro's example and open a Kudo Shinichi detective agency or something?
By the way, they started classes on the third day after Fang Zheng brought Huihara Ai back from the plateau.
Although it is not wrong to go back to school after the summer vacation, but what is the point of having only one week of summer vacation and then starting school... Never mind, since the person doesn't care, Fang Zheng will just pretend he didn't see it.
Anyway, it’s not him who has to do the summer homework.
However, the good times did not last long. Before Fang Zheng could enjoy a few days of comfort, troubles came knocking on his door again.
He had to go this time because the trouble this time was caused by someone sent by the Metropolitan Police Department!
Fang Zheng, the creator of the Skynet system, is also a famous micro-expression expert and special consultant of the Metropolitan Police Department. He has also solved many major cases in succession. If Fang Zheng was not a member of the system, he would have been promoted several levels by now. This time, the police have an important case and need to send all kinds of elite troops to join. As a special consultant of the Metropolitan Police Department, Fang Zheng is naturally among them.
This is——Phantom Thief Kidd!
Kaito Kidd...
Sitting in the crowd, Fang Zheng looked uninterested as he watched Inspector Nakamori, who was reading the Kaito Kid preview letter in high spirits. He had no interest in catching Kaito Kid, after all, he had not stolen anything from him, and unlike those wealthy people who showed off, Fang Zheng was not interested in collecting art or jewelry.
If you want to collect it, you might as well go to Akihabara and buy the first limited edition figurines. They are more valuable and even Kaito Kid can’t steal them…
Fang Zheng was quite familiar with the plot of this case. This was a very famous Conan movie, the one where Kaito Kid first appeared - "The Magician of the Century's End".
I have to say that Fang Zheng has rewatched this movie many times and it is quite interesting. Whether it is the treasure hunt and puzzle solving, the theft trailer of Kaito Kid, or the inside story of the international wanted criminal Scoobing, they all have the style of a blockbuster movie - to be honest, Conan's early movies are quite good.
In fact, the case is quite simple. Kaito Kidd has his eyes on an egg of remembrance, an artwork from the Tsarist era that will be exhibited by the Suzuki Group at the Osaka Museum of Art, so he sends a letter to steal it. Then, an international killer named Skoubing, who specializes in collecting relics from the Tsarist era, is involved. In the end, everyone follows the clues hidden in the egg of remembrance and successfully finds another egg... and catches the international killer Skoubing.
Well... the process is actually very simple, but Fang Zheng remembers it very clearly. This was the first time that Conan almost admitted his identity to Xiaolan in person.
Of course, since it is a theatrical version, the ending definitely cannot be that Conan admits it. After all, we also have to consider the TV audience.
But now in this real world, Fang Zheng would not think so much.
Given this good opportunity, why not just expose Conan's identity?
Fang Zheng didn't care about Inspector Nakamori's idea. Inspector Nakamori was only a policeman after all, and could only use police methods to solve problems. But for Fang Zheng, he had many other methods to solve problems...
So after the meeting, Fang Zheng took Xiao Ai and flew directly to Osaka.
But for Xiao Ai...
"Why did you bring me along?"
"If Maori Kogoro wants to take Conan with him, then I have to take you with me. This is what we call an equal relationship."
"What kind of equal relationship is this..."
Hearing Fang Zheng's answer, Xiao Ai rolled her eyes speechlessly.
"What's the problem? It's much easier to do things with an assistant, and people generally won't be on guard against children. Look, Conan is selling out his experience by being cute all day, isn't he?"
"Well... that's true..."
Hearing Fang Zheng's words, Xiao Ai couldn't help but smile. It was not the first time she saw Conan pretending to be cute and asking others things like "Uncle, uncle, what happened that day?" Of course, there was no problem on the surface, but when she thought that there was a high school detective in this little kid's body, Xiao Ai felt like laughing.
"You won't let me learn from him, will you?"
Thinking of this, Xiao Ai glared at Fang Zheng coldly again. It was fun to watch others do this kind of thing, but it would be stupid to do it yourself.
"Of course not."
Fang Zheng shook his head.
"Conan is an idiot, but you are not. You can just debut as a genius girl. You are smart anyway, right? People are always very tolerant of geniuses - so it is only right that Conan gets killed by himself."
“That’s right.”
Hearing that she didn't have to act cute like Conan, Xiao Ai calmed down immediately. After analyzing it, she found that it was indeed interesting. After all, Conan played an innocent child in front of others, so it was embarrassing every time he made trouble. But she was a genius girl, and speaking out about her discoveries would not destroy her character, but would increase others' trust in her character, right?
Hmm... Thinking of this, Xiao Ai suddenly wanted to see if Conan would get so depressed that he would bang his head against the wall after discovering this...
This is much more interesting.
"So, do you have a way to catch that Kaito Kidd?"
Thinking of this, Xiao Ai also withdrew her thoughts and looked at Fang Zheng. She had seen Conan gritting his teeth in hatred towards Kaito Kid at school, wishing to catch him immediately. But Fang Zheng seemed to have little interest in this matter. On the contrary, on the plane to Osaka, he was most interested in where to go and where to eat good food...
"No, I'm not interested."
Fang Zheng shook his head decisively.
"I'm a special consultant, but I'm not a police officer, nor am I a reasoning geek like Conan. Kaito Kid didn't steal my things, so I don't care about his life or death. This time I'm here mainly for sightseeing, and at the same time, I just want to protect Kaito Kid's egg of memories."
"But Kaito Kid is determined to get that egg."
"Of course, so I have my own way."
As they were talking, an amiable-looking old man walked into the room with a smile on his face.
"Oh, Mr. Fang Zheng, welcome, welcome."
"Hello, President Suzuki."
Seeing the old man in front of him, Fang Zheng stood up and nodded.
"I'm sorry to bother you during your busy schedule."
"No, no, it's about that matter."
"That's right."
"I see."
Hearing Fang Zheng's answer, President Suzuki nodded, then looked at Ai curiously.
"This is..."
"Her name is Huiyuan Ai, and she's my cute little assistant."
As he spoke, Fang Zheng reached out and patted Xiao Ai on the head.
"Please don't underestimate her. She is a talented girl who has already completed a doctorate degree at the University of Edinburgh."
"Oh, really? This is really surprising. It seems that you have got a very good assistant, Mr. Fang Zheng."
Hearing Fang Zheng's answer, President Suzuki also laughed and made a gesture. Fang Zheng then took Xiao Ai to the study room. Then, Fang Zheng placed the paper bag in his hand on the desk and took out a well-wrapped gift box from it.
"Oh, is this it?"
"Yes, it will definitely be enough for your use."
"Hehe, thank you in advance then."
President Suzuki took the box handed over by Fang Zheng, opened it and took a look inside. He showed a slightly surprised expression, but quickly nodded.
"I really didn't expect that... Well, I'll trouble you, Fang Zheng-jun."
As he spoke, President Suzuki took out a wooden box that was about the same size as the gift box Fang Zheng had given him and handed it to Fang Zheng.
"Okay, leave it to me, no problem."
Fang Zheng casually took the wooden box and stuffed it into the paper bag without even looking at it, then nodded to President Suzuki.
"Then I'll take my leave."
"Aren't you going to stay? My daughter and Mr. Maori should be here soon."
"I'm not interested in this kind of occasion. I'd better take Ai to visit Osaka first. I heard there are a lot of delicious and fun places here. Maybe we can find something interesting here."
"Yes, you young people should go out more often."
Hearing Fang Zheng's answer, President Suzuki also laughed.
"Then I wish you all a happy time."
"Thank you for your good words."
Fang Zheng nodded slightly, then turned and left the Suzuki Group building. He then took Xiao Ai into the car, started the car, and stepped on the accelerator and drove... onto the street.
Xiao Ai looked at the paper bag that Fang Zheng placed next to him, hesitated for a moment, and finally looked forward.
"So, where do we go next?"
"Anyway, let's find a place to buy some local specialties for Mingmei."
Fang Zheng took a look at the map and then gave a direction.
“免得到时候回去她埋怨我们出去玩都不给她带好东西。”
于是接下来,方正就带着小哀彻底进入了旅游模式,一路吃一路买一路玩,小哀也是无比尽兴,毕竟和方正出来花钱根本不需要上限,看到什么就买什么。买了就往车上塞,什么化妆品什么衣服什么特产统统拿下,除了宫野明美的那一份礼物之外,下笠姐妹自然也有,于是两人就这么边走边买,很快就把整辆车给塞的满满当当。
当方正驾车带着小哀来到重兵把守的铃木近代美术馆时,已经是晚上七点。按照中森警部那不靠谱的推理,怪盗基德会在今天到明天的凌晨三点出现盗取回忆之卵,因此眼下的铃木美术馆也是重兵把守,不但有防暴警察,还有直升机在空中巡逻活动。
看起来简直比国家领导人来访的安保还要严密。
而当方正驾车来到美术馆大门口时,却发现一个穿着职业装的女子正在和一个穿蓝西装的男人在那里说着些什么。
那个穿蓝西装的男人,方正没记错的话应该是铃木会长的秘书西野真人……
“西野先生,你在这里干什么?”
看到这一幕,方正也是停下车,降下车窗望向两人。而看见方正出现,西野真人也是松了口气。
“啊,方正先生,是这样的,这位小姐想要见铃木会长,但是铃木会长目前不在……”
“你好,我叫香阪夏美。”
眼前的女子也是恭敬的向着方正行了一礼,这是一个相当有气质的美丽女性,有着棕色的微卷发,以及美丽的灰色眼眸,整个人看起来相当文静贤淑的样子。
“那么香阪小姐,是有什么事呢?”
“是这样的。”
一面说着,香阪夏美一面拿出了手中关于铃木近代美术馆的介绍册。
“关于这份简介,我有些事情想要和铃木会长进行说明。”
“真是抱歉,会长目前不在。”
西野秘书也是无奈的苦笑起来。
“如果可以的话,能够和我说说吗?”
“是的,我想说的是,这份手册上关于回忆之卵的说明不对,和我曾祖父所留下来的画完全不同……”
“这……”
“西野先生,交给我来处理吧。”
看见西野秘书露出了为难的表情,方正也是很快接手,接着他转过头来,望向香阪夏美。
“香阪小姐,不介意的话,请上车谈吧。”
“啊……好的。”
听到方正的邀请,香阪夏美也是点了点头,接着坐上了方正的车。而方正则驾着车驶入了美术馆,然后在停车场的一角停了下来。
“抱歉,香阪小姐,今天你来的时机不太对,不知道你有没有从媒体上听说,怪盗基德打算今天晚上盗取那枚回忆之卵。”
“哎?还有这种事吗?”
听到这里,香阪夏美则是吃了一惊。
“非常抱歉,我不太了解情况,我只是看到那份册子,才匆匆忙忙的赶回国的……事实上在这之前,我一直在巴黎做糕点师。”
“原来如此。”
听到这里,方正点了点头,当然,其实他自然也知道香阪夏美这个人物,但是从动画里看到和现实之中接触是完全不同的两种概念,怎么说呢……不愧是被称为柯南剧场版颜值巅峰的角色,举手投足间都流露出那种王室的高贵气质,而且她本人也非常善良热情,给人的感觉就好像是童话里的公主具现化在现实里一样。
说实话,光是看外表,完全看不出来这位香阪夏美小姐居然已经27岁了。
“所以就是这样,今天你是不可能和会长见面了,但是如果你有时间的话,明天我可以安排铃木会长与你见面。”
“那就多谢您了,请问……”
“方正,我的身份是安布雷拉公司的社长兼警视厅特别顾问。”
没错,方正在柯南世界里收购的警备公司之后就改名叫安布雷拉,而且标志也完全是和生化危机一样的红白小雨伞,当然,他也没有忘记在外面加一圈“安布雷拉,庇护您的家庭”。
看,多相称啊!
黑衣组织牛逼是吧,老子就拿保护伞怼死你!
看看谁的反派光环更厉害。
就在这时候,方正也看见不远处大门口的柯南与服部正急匆匆的离开美术馆,显然和剧情发展一样,他们也发现了怪盗基德预告函上所说的时间不是中森警部以为的凌晨三点,而是晚上七点二十分。
“嗖——!!”
然而就在这个时候,忽然,伴随着彩色的光辉,烟花冲天而起,爆发出了一朵朵耀眼的色彩。
“这是……?”
看到这美丽的烟花,走下车的香阪夏美和小哀都惊讶的抬起头望向天空,但是还没有等她们回过神来,忽然,整个城市迅速变得一片漆黑。
啊……终于开始了啊。
看着漆黑的城市,方正打了个哈欠,在动画里,为了防止基德去美术馆盗取回忆之卵,中森警部把回忆之卵带到了一个只有他和两个部下才知道的地方。却未曾想到基德早就窃取了这一情报,通过断掉整个大阪的电力供应,他成功找到了目标——毕竟虽然说是要藏起来,可是一旦失去了电力的话,那么在漆黑之中是无法保护好回忆之卵的。
因此中森警部也是急忙启动了紧急发电机来发电,然而这反过来却让基德找到了他们的位置……
然而偷了回忆之卵的基德也没落个好,直接被史考兵一枪击中右眼……话说那镜片一定是防弹的吧,普通人对着右眼来一枪早死了!
不过……算了,终究只是剧情嘛。
方正伸了个懒腰,然后闭上眼睛。
接下来,就是等结果的时候了。
事实上,在一个小时之后,所有人都重新回到了电力已经恢复的美术馆里,而中森警部面对铃木会长,也是垂头丧气。
“真是非常抱歉,铃木会长,没有能够守护住回忆之卵。”
“哈哈哈,中森警部,不要在意……”
看着整个人阴沉无比的中森警部,铃木会长也是无语苦笑,而就在这个时候,只见房门打开,随后方正带着小哀走了进来。
“哟,铃木会长,我们回来了。”
“啊,方正先生,你回来啦,玩的可好?”
“当然,大阪还真是个热闹的地方,我也给会长你带了礼物。”
一面说着,方正一面从纸袋里拿出木盒子递给了铃木会长。
而看见这一幕,中森警部则是气不打一处来,一把冲过去抓住了方正。
“你小子,来这里究竟是干什么的!大家都在忙着逮捕怪盗基德,你居然还有闲情逸致跑出去玩?”
“好啦好啦,中森警部,不要生气了,而且我也得到了方正先生给我的礼物呢。”
“可是铃木会长……”
听到铃木会长的说话,中森警部转过头就要说点儿什么,但是下一刻他却惊讶的睁大了眼睛。
只见此刻的铃木会长已经拆开了包装盒,然后从里面拿出了一颗美丽的,翠绿色的椭圆形状物,那正是……
“这不是回忆之卵吗?!”
看到这里,中森警部顿时惊呆了。
“这东西怎么会在你手上?”
“因为今天一天,这东西都是由我来保管的,中森警部。”
看着眼前的中森警部,方正微微一笑,伸出手去一把按下了他的手。
“交给你保护的那个,其实不过只是我闲着无聊造出来的赝品罢了。”
“你,你说是赝品?!你居然把赝品交给我?!”
听到这里,中森警部更是怒发冲冠,方正则呵呵一笑。
“没错,因为我认为中森警部你不是怪盗基德的对手嘛。”
“你……你……!”
中森警部气的指着方正,然而却说不出话来,事实胜于雄辩,毕竟他这次“精心布置”的计划彻底失败了。
“中森警部你一直在追查怪盗基德吧,但是一直没有任何进展不是吗?说实话,我怀疑怪盗基德可能都把你从里到外研究透了,说不定你屁股一撅他连你放什么屁都能够猜到,因此为了以防万一,我决定自己亲手保管回忆之卵。”
一面说着,方正一面望向中森警部。
“现在看来,我的决定是正确的嘛。”
“哼,你说的倒好听,但是万一你失败了可怎么办?”
“呵呵。”
面对中森警部的询问,方正耸耸肩膀。
“区区八亿日元,我又不是赔不起。”
爷有钱,任性,你能把我怎么的?
“……”
听到这里,中森警部彻底跪了。
