Chapter 698 You're joking, right?
Behrfinger hung up the phone and then casually returned to their side.
Ai Haibara and Conan squinted at him, speaking softly and confidently, their voices inexplicably merging together: "That was a call from Bertrand, right?"
Upon hearing this, Behringer immediately showed a shocked expression and asked, "What? How did you know?"
Ai Haibara and Conan: "..."
Ignoring his exaggerated acting, Ai Haibara pressed on, "He didn't intend to do anything to you, did he?"
“No.” Behringer shook his head, then squatted down and gave them a mysterious smile. “Because he was very satisfied with another thing I made, so it offset this accident.”
"Oh, I see." Ai Haibara casually crossed her arms. "But you'd better not let any more accidents happen, after all, you can't always be this lucky, can you?"
Her indifferent tone concealed a hint of concern.
"Okay, okay~ I know, there won't be a next time." Behringer nodded helplessly in agreement.
However, whether his future actions will be as he says, and whether there will truly be no next time, remains to be seen.
After seeing the two little adults off, Behringer sighed deeply, raised his hand to wipe away non-existent sweat from his forehead, and once again silently lamented how tiring acting was.
After turning off the living room lights, he briefly considered the content of the next theatrical version.
It seems like nothing will happen that could endanger their lives.
Unless you stand right in front of Scrooge and she shoots a bullet into his right eye?
Bechfenger fell into deep thought.
Never mind, I'm going to sleep.
...
Ekoda, Kuroba's residence.
Kaito Kuroba, who was just about to go to sleep, yawned and looked at the two people who had appeared there with sleepy eyes. "It's so late, what are you two doing here?"
The blond youth always wore a gentle smile. He glanced at the boy, who looked like he wanted to go to sleep, and said softly, "Didn't you say you were bored last time? So this time we'll find you something to do."
Kaito Kuroba's mind went blank for a moment, then suddenly started working. "Huh? Don't tell me it's something like going to the aquarium again!"
He stared warily at the two young men opposite him, then hugged his weak, pitiful, and helpless self and moved back a considerable distance.
Then he saw X glance at him with what seemed like disgust.
Kaito Kuroba: "..." It's not something you're afraid of, of course you don't understand my pain.
R casually tossed him a photo, then conjured a bottle of red wine and a wine glass out of thin air, before leisurely pouring himself a glass of wine.
Kaito Kuroba took the photo and glanced at its contents.
It is an egg.
He fell into deep thought, "What does this have to do with my dad?"
"Hmm? Who knows?" R replied casually.
Kaito Kuroba snapped out of his daze.
Yeah, they just wanted to give me things to do.
He scratched his head, took the photos back to his room, and didn't forget to turn back to the two people who treated the place like their own home, reminding them, "Remember to turn off the lights for me when you leave, okay?"
Then he focused on studying the Egg of Memories in seclusion and developing a plan.
R and X didn't stay there long; they left a note and then departed.
After Kaito Kid sent out the warning letter.
It's fair to say that the entire Tokyo police force was energized, especially Inspector Nakamori, who was determined to catch the Phantom Thief Kid.
Upon learning that Kaito Kid's target this time was the Egg of Memories, Sonoko Suzuki immediately invited Ran Mouri and the others to go to Osaka together.
Qianzhu was naturally among those invited, and when he arrived, Beihefeng came along as well.
Sonoko Suzuki had originally invited Naya Kuno, but she said she needed to go back to Japan for some business and couldn't come along.
Although Sonoko Suzuki felt a little disappointed, she thought there would be many more opportunities in the future, so she said she would make another appointment next time.
"Come to think of it, I've been to Osaka many times, but I've never really explored it properly." Behefinger stood next to Chizuru, looking around at the scenery.
Well, he has indeed come to Osaka many times, but each time it's for missions.
"In that case, let's go shopping together!" Sonoko Suzuki clasped her hands together, looking somewhat expectant.
Ran Mouri and Kazuha Toyama nodded in agreement. The latter turned to Heiji Hattori, who was whispering to Conan behind them, and asked, "Heiji, why don't you join us?"
"Huh? I'll just stay with this little guy. You guys go play first." Heiji Hattori looked up at them, laughed a few times, and then dragged Conan away first.
Kazuha Toyama blinked in surprise, "Those two are really close..."
Qianzhu smiled slightly, "It's probably because they both like reasoning."
"If that's the case, then it seems so." Sonoko Suzuki pouted, then immediately put on an excited expression. "Alright! Let's go try some of Osaka's delicious food now!"
"Agreed!" Bechfenger was also excited.
They walked around for a while, during which the entire city of Osaka suddenly lost power, plunging the surroundings into darkness.
The sudden power outage made Behringer blink, and after a couple of seconds of confusion, he ignored it and took another bite of the still-steaming takoyaki.
Because of the sudden power outage, Qianzhu and the others stopped playing and turned back.
When they came back, there didn't seem to be many people around.
On the other side.
When Kaito Kid, who had obtained the Egg of Memories, arrived at Osaka Bay, a figure on the bridge below, whose gender was indistinguishable, shot him in the right eye with a gun.
When Conan arrived on his skateboard, he only saw an injured pigeon lying on the ground, Kaito Kid's monocle, and the Memory Egg that looked perfectly intact.
Since Kaito Kid was above the sea when he was hit, it's understandable that Conan would assume he fell into the sea.
After the police arrived, he told them what had happened, and the police then searched the sea all night.
But in reality—
Above the sea, three figures, two in white and one in black, stood in mid-air, their clothes fluttering in the wind.
The blond youth glanced down at the sea, then chuckled softly, "I wonder if you'd encounter any fish if you fell in from this spot?"
"???" Kaito Kid, who had just been relieved to have escaped a disaster, froze upon hearing this. He didn't dare to look down again, and then reached out a trembling claw to grab R's sleeve. "You're joking, right, teacher?"
