Chapter 6464
Kuroba Kaito's eyes widened, his clever brain froze for once.
He opened his mouth and said, "...How is it possible? If you were a child...how could you grow up overnight?"
Chaori Xiqiu: "Then can't you also become smaller overnight?"
Hei Yu Kaidou wanted to fight back a few more times: "I'm not, I didn't--"
"It's because I've grown bigger and you've grown smaller that we changed into the wrong clothes and cut the wrong size. Do you understand, brother?" Chao Ri Xi Qiu patted the other's shoulder, "Since we stole the number face to face, there's no need to hide it from each other anymore."
Kuroba Kaito didn't answer, he looked a little stiff.
"Okay, let me explain one more thing. I became smaller after taking medicine, and I became bigger..." Chaori Xiqiu's last syllable was slightly dragged out, sounding a little hesitant.
Until now, he still didn't know why he had grown so big.
Asahi Yuqiu recalled the discussion that popped up on the screen just now.
[Didn't Asahi take drugs and become a child? How come she's grown up again?]
[Eh, did he secretly drink white wine? Is there white wine at this dinner? ? ]
[There is only wine on site, no white wine. Speaking of which, the previous screen deliberately showed crystal dumplings filled with watermelon rind, and I feel that it will be useful to broadcast it...]
[Could it be the effect of watermelon rind? ]
[Real or fake, I am dying of laughter, has the mystery comic turned into a comedy comic in an instant? Hahaha]
[Seriously, since Chaori has a plan to become smaller, he should also have a corresponding plan to become bigger.
I think he has something like an antidote in his hand. Remember the silhouette of the hospital that flashed by in the first few episodes?
At the time, everyone was discussing whether to come up with a new wine name code and choose one of the three codes, but the subsequent plot did not mention the new wine, so the person should not be from the winery. 】
[…My long bullet screen, half the screen is filled with words]
[Ah, the long bullet screen in front, I remember that episode! Is it Dr. Kitamura? ]
[I remember. There are a few pills in the small box in Dr. Kitamura's hand, and the computer screen on the desk shows a picture of Asahi when she was an adult.]
[Does Dr. Kitamura have an antidote? Come to think of it, he seems to be looking for Asahi as well]
When he saw this, Asahi Xiqiu's heart skipped a beat. He almost forgot about Kitamura Ichiha, his big customer.
——At first, this person wanted to contact me to purchase goods, right? It seems that he made an agreement with me.
As a result, after I became smaller, I completely forgot about it! Asahi Yuaki felt a little guilty.
Dr. Kitamura has been waiting for so long. Now that I have grown up, I will deliver the goods to your door if I have time.
As for the antidote or something... well, the memory did mention that Kitamura, who was rescued by his past self, was a medical genius, but it can't be such a coincidence, right? Could it be that the one who saves others will eventually save himself?
This is so positive and so unconventional!
I feel like this is a serious watermelon market transaction, which suits my style as an ordinary passerby.
His thoughts were running wild, but Asahi Xiqiu quickly gathered them and extracted the content he wanted to answer the question of whether Kuroba Kaito was getting bigger or smaller.
"—maybe because of the watermelon rind, I guess."
After all, watermelon rind has the effect of clearing away heat and detoxifying, so it makes sense that it can remove toxins that make the body smaller! Chaori Xiqiu himself found a perfect explanation for Watermelon.
Black Feather Fight: “…”
Kuroba Kaito's stiff expression cracked, and then his half-moon eyes were revealed.
Hey, at least make up a more credible excuse! Watermelon rind is too perfunctory.
Kuroba Kaito did not believe in the heat-clearing and detoxifying effects of watermelon rind, but he finally reluctantly believed what Asahi Yuaki said in the first half - perhaps the two of them had exchanged identities.
Anyway, Kuroba Kaito stopped trying to pretend to be a child.
"Okay. I understand." Kuroba Kaito stroked the back of his head with one hand, his fluffy hair fluttering, and his blue eyes raised. "Now the first priority is to solve the situation of this bomb. We have to fly up."
Chaori Xiqiu nodded: "Yes! That's right." He looked around and said, "There is no ladder that can be climbed directly nearby. If we want to leave, we may have to rush out from the hole where I... or you fell in. Do you remember the location?"
"Well, that's about right." Kuroba Kaito said, "Let's go to my place. All my stuff has been thrown down, including the folded and packed equipment. The child is too big to carry it, so I left everything where it was."
"Okay." Chaori Xiqiu agreed and held the time bomb box in his hand.
Passing by a watermelon cosplaying as Chainsaw Dog that had been stabbed by a blade, he paused for a moment and tilted his head to suggest, "Why don't you cut a piece of watermelon rind and see if it can get bigger?"
"Oh, no." Hei Yu Kaidou didn't want to be dragged along. He didn't want to do something that looked ridiculous. Hei Yu Kaidou added, "If I can grow bigger, what about clothes? Brother Da Li Ba, who of us is running naked?"
"…It's a meat floss egg roll." Asahi Xiqiu muttered softly, but also silently retracted his original suggestion.
I have to say that Kuroba Kaito's reply was very reasonable. They only had one set of adult clothes now, so even if they wanted to make it bigger or smaller, it would be best to wait until after they got up there.
The two men walked through the dim interior of the ship. The countdown on the bomb box screen was almost the only source of light, emitting a diffuse red light in the darkness.
After passing through a long pipe, they finally came to an open space.
Asahi Yuqiu didn't see anything at first, until Kuroba Kaito rummaged through the hidden objects in the corner, then he noticed it.
"* Did you put them all away?"
"Of course." Hei Yu answered quickly, "Collecting items and cleaning up traces is a necessary method."
Asahi Yuaki noticed that mixed in the pile of things were the waiters' normal clothes - they were probably the disguise that Kuroba Kaito had used to sneak onto the cruise ship.
Now I have adult clothes, but there is no watermelon rind nearby! I should have cut off a piece to bring with me.
Chao Ri Xi Qiu's thoughts wandered for a moment. He tried to think whether if he fell flat on his face on the spot, he could attract a hero like Watermelon to save the damsel in distress.
“This is it.”
Kuroba Kaito's voice attracted Asahi Yuaki's attention. He turned around and saw the folded object in Kuroba Kaito's hand.
He unfurled it in a few quick motions, like releasing a compression package—a beautiful white hang glider with a sleek, finely crafted booster attached to the end.
"How cool! Did you design it yourself?" Asahi Xiqiu reached out and touched the silver booster, praising it. Human beings' pursuit of beauty has never been limited.
"Ah, no." Hei Yu Kuaidou shook his head.
This item was originally designed by the housekeeper, and was later modified and upgraded by the neighbor next door to become what it is now.
On his first day of debut, he hadn't yet fully mastered hang gliding, and there was something wrong with the wings, so when he landed on his way back, he fell headfirst into a neighbor's pond.
So my identity was known to my neighbors next door.
The neighbor is a girl with light gray hair and golden eyes sitting in an electric wheelchair. Her name is Aoi and her last name is unknown. She seems to be Kitamura.
Neighbor Kui rarely goes out, seems to have some memory defects, and has little social interaction. Her account seems to have regular deposits of living funds, and on weekdays, she does some design at home.
Butler Hei Yu felt pity for the girl in the wheelchair who lived alone. He often brought her some groceries when he went out to buy them and took good care of her on weekdays.
Neighbor Aoi has an excellent talent for design and hands-on ability, and later took the initiative to help Kuroba Kaito upgrade his equipment - which is the current model.
"Put it on your back and fly upwards. When the hang glider was first used as a booster, it was folded side by side, so it could pass through the cover above." Hei Yu Kaidou said, "Keep your balance and keep a good attitude." At this point, he raised his head and glanced at Chao Ri Xi Qiu, "You are not afraid of heights, are you?"
"No problem." Chaori Xiqiu took the hang glider readily and began to put it on. "I'm not afraid of heights because I learned to fly a plane before."
He said he learned how to fly a plane in the same tone as if he were saying he could bake waffles.
Kuroba Kaito: “?”
The last time he saw someone who could fly a plane was the shrunken detective... Is flying a plane so popular now? ?
"Where did you learn to fly a plane?" Hei Yu Kaidou couldn't help but ask.
Asahi Yuki: "Hawaii."
Kuroba Kaito: I vaguely remember that the great detective also said that he learned it in Hawaii.
What on earth is Hawaii?
In just a few minutes, Asahi Yuqiu had the hang glider on his back. He checked his mask and monocle, handed the box bomb to Kuroba Kaito, and then picked him up.
He looked up and saw a closed lid above his head. If he opened it, he could fly out.
"Where were you knocked unconscious?" Asahi Xiqiu wanted to confirm where he would go out later.
"Near the bathroom," Kuroba Kaito answered. He thought for a moment, "But then I seemed to be dragged for a distance while half asleep and half awake... I'm not sure exactly where he threw me down from."
"It looks like we won't become toilet heroes." Asahi Yuaki joked.
He was ready, took a deep breath, and stared straight at the lid above - they were going out.
=
Cruise ship restaurant kitchen.
There are many more people here than usual. The sleepy Kogoro Mouri sits on a wooden chair on the side and completes his reasoning.
The middle-aged man in chef's uniform knelt down and cried: "I didn't want to kill him, really!! I was just angry for a moment... I didn't expect that my good apprentice would try to secretly replace the zucchini with watermelon rind to get away with it. I wanted to teach him a lesson, but he and I had an argument, and I lost my temper, and..."
Conan Edogawa walked out from behind Kogoro Mori with a complicated expression.
Although I know that big things are caused by small things, but still... why would I kill someone just because of a watermelon rind?
"It's all the street melon's fault! Why does it have to grow everywhere? This is wrong!!" The middle-aged man's face was burning with anger.
Before anyone could react, he knelt down and crawled quickly, plucked the melons growing on the wall next to him, then lifted the wide lid on the ground and prepared to throw the watermelons in.
But before he could throw it in, a white shadow jumped out from inside and they collided with each other!
The watermelon flew out of his hand, soared into the air, and finally hit the ground, breaking into pieces and exploding, with the sweet red flesh flying everywhere.
Seeing that it was a ripe melon, the people around them subconsciously let out a low cry of surprise. Then they raised their heads and saw the flying figure.
"——The Thief Kidd!?"
In the corner of the crowd, Gin stood quietly.
He was here to keep a close eye on Morishita from a distance. It was too difficult to find the bomb buried by the enemy on a huge ship and then stop it, so it was better to keep a close eye on the person.
The sound of the watermelon falling to the ground and breaking made him subconsciously turn his eyes away for a second.
Noticing that the piece of watermelon torn into pieces on the ground was a ripe watermelon, Gin's expression froze, and he subtly felt that something was not going on.
The melons on the street were all raw. As far as he knew, there was only one way to get a ripe melon...
Gin raised his head and looked at the white figure in the air.
Although there was a distance between them, they could still see clearly - brown hair, bright golden eyes. Although they were wearing masks, they could still guess who they were from their frivolous and light-hearted posture.
... Asahi Yushu? Gin was silent. How come that guy became a thief! !
——No, I should say, how did the other person return to his adult state?
Gin narrowed his dark green eyes and put this question aside for the time being, focusing on observing what he saw.
He saw that Chao Ri Xi Qiu was holding a child in her arms. The child was holding a square box with a countdown on it.
Bomb?
Not far away, Morishita moved his lips.
[Damn it.] Morishita muttered.
Oh. Gin withdrew his gaze from watching Morishita's lip reading. It seems that the bomb was Morishita's original plan... Unfortunately, it was interrupted now.
Great, now it will be easier to deal with the Morishita gang. A very good excuse.
Gin pulled up the corners of his mouth and let out a low, short laugh. He took out his cell phone from his pocket and sent a message to Mr. K after a long absence.
[The former knight appeared and saw through and stopped Morishita's plan to clean up the traces in advance.
The organization may be exposed to risk, please apply for handling Morishita. 】
Gin: Today's task is to solve the "rat" (1/1)
After the email was sent, Gin did not move his fingers away.
He stared at the screen of his mobile phone for a moment, then lifted his curtains and glimpsed the figure of a boy standing next to the sleeping Kogoro Mori through the crowd.
Conan Edogawa is Shinichi Kudo.
Gin thought for a moment, exited his current mailbox, and logged into a new blank account.
As for the recipient, he entered the email address he had researched before, edited a string of content, and sent it.
In front of the kitchen.
Conan Edogawa watched everything happening before his eyes with a dull expression.
Although I don't know why Asahi Yuaki, who looks like she's wearing Kid's clothes, flew out from below, but the child in my hand... uh, that can't be Kid!!
What is that thing with a countdown in Kidd's hand, a bomb? ? Huh? ?
Just at this moment, he heard a message from his cell phone.
Conan Edogawa took out his cell phone and looked down - it was a letter from an unfamiliar person.
[Sailor Morishita, bomb planter, there is a trade item hidden in the room. To you, it is the enemy's trade item.
Believe it or not, it’s up to you. 】
"!?" Edogawa Conan's pupils suddenly shrank.
Almost instantly, he thought of the organization.
Conan Edogawa's heart was pounding. He pursed his lips, and his mind exploded at this moment.
He typed quickly and instinctively sent it over:
【Who are you? 】
There was silence for a long time.
Conan Edogawa stared at the screen until his eyes became numb, but he still didn't receive the message.
He found it difficult to describe his current mood. His hands had been clenched for so long that they began to tremble.
Edogawa Conan relaxed his fingers, exhaled, and tried to relax his tense heartstrings.
At this moment, the next email from the strange account popped up in his mailbox! Conan Edogawa couldn't wait to open it.
——The email was very short.
That is a signature and an anonymous one.
