Chapter 13441352 [Kid's Taste]
Jiang Xia and Hattori Heiji also noticed the movement outside. They both turned their heads and looked at the luxury car.
Under the gaze of the three people, a young woman and a silver-haired man got out of the car. They were dressed quite formally in suits and leather shoes, and their deep-lined faces looked like they were of foreign descent.
It happened that Suzuki's assistant passed by here, and when he saw the guests, he went to greet them.
The young woman gave the assistant a shallow bow, "Hello, my name is Natsumi Kosaka."
She raised her hand and motioned to her companion next to her: "This is my butler, Mr. Sawabe."
"Hello." Secretary Nishino nodded politely to each of them. His face was very natural, but he was a little confused: Who? I haven't heard of him. It seems that he is not in the appointment book.
Natsumi Kosaka seemed to notice the secretary's confusion. She took out a card from her bag and said, "I'm here for this."
Jiang Xia looked from afar and saw a colorful brochure - it was clearly just an introduction advertisement casually distributed by the museum, but when she held it in her hand, it seemed to have turned into a precious invitation letter.
As he was watching, Hattori Heiji beside him suddenly said thoughtfully: "How beautiful. Could this person be Kid in disguise?"
Jiang Xia: “……?”
...What kind of image does Kidd have in your eyes?
but……
Hearing this, he turned around and looked at Kosaka Natsumi again.
The more he looked, the more he felt that Hattori Heiji's suspicion was not unreasonable - the mixed-race woman was indeed tall and beautiful, and she fit Kid's preference for choosing women's clothing in every way.
…
Very far away.
At the top of Tsutenkaku, the white-clad thief who was standing elegantly on the roof suddenly sneezed, turning his head as if he could not withstand the wind.
Kidd subconsciously wrapped his cloak around himself.
After a moment, he felt that this was not cool enough, so he spread out his cloak again, letting it fly freely in the wind. He stood upright on the top of the tower, gazing at the gorgeous night view below.
At the same time, Kidd silently felt the temperature and found that it was not that cold. So when no one was looking, he rubbed his nose in confusion: "...Who is talking about me behind my back?"
...Could it be the young detective and the black-skinned detective who had just been to Tsutenkaku?
——Not long ago, Kidd followed Jiang Xia's advice and delayed his debut time a little.
After everything was ready and they were strolling around the nearby pedestrian street out of boredom, Kuroba Kaito turned his head inadvertently and saw Conan and Hattori Heiji rushing straight to Tsutenkaku.
After a moment, the two left again, muttering in frustration.
Kuroba Kaito looked at their departing backs and silently took a bite of the chocolate double scoop ice cream in his hand: "..." These two detectives were quite powerful. They actually cracked his invitation letter.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel a little guilty - he originally thought that no one could solve the puzzle on his invitation on time, so it would be delayed, and no one would be delayed. Who knew that someone actually came as promised.
Kuroba Kaito: "..." But, I've already postponed it. And thinking carefully, my notice letter can indeed refer to either 7:20 or 8:20, so it's not a lie, so it's not a big problem.
So Kuroba Kaito quickly became righteous again.
He slowly finished the ice cream in his hand, wiped his hands, and went to Tsutenkaku.
When heading to the top floor, Kuroba Kaito pondered for a moment, worried that the detectives would suddenly call the police and let the police ambush in Tsutenkaku. If that happened, things might become a little troublesome.
But on second thought, detectives don't seem to like confessing to the police before they are completely sure of something.
Thinking of the confused looks on Conan and Hattori Heiji's faces when they left, Kid gradually calmed down.
…
As Kidd had expected, the detectives did not go to the police.
At this time, the three detectives were still watching the excitement in front of the Suzuki Museum of Modern Art.
The mixed-race woman who suddenly arrived took out the brochure, looked at Secretary Nishino, and said earnestly: "I am here for the 'Egg of Memories'. I have something important to discuss with the chairman."
Secretary Nishino was a little embarrassed: "I'm so sorry, the chairman is not in the exhibition hall now. If you have anything to say, please tell me first and I will convey it to you later."
Kosaka Natsumi hesitated for a moment, shook her head, and insisted: "I still want to meet him in person."
Secretary Nishino sighed silently: There are too many people who want to see Chairman Suzuki every day. Although this lady looks noble, he can't introduce her directly before verifying her identity. Besides, Natsumi Kosaka refused to say what she wanted specifically.
He thought about it and said politely, "Then I'll contact the chairman first - but he's very busy and may not have time."
As he spoke, he took out his phone and started typing an email that was not marked as urgent. This would be considered a notification.
…
"Why don't you say what it is? It's getting more and more suspicious." Hattori Heiji secretly listened in for a while, looked at Jiang Xia, and discussed, "How about we try to grab her face?"
Jiang Xia felt that this was too much for an innocent passerby, and she was not a murderer, so she said tactfully: "When Kidd chooses his target, he seems to prefer those who are close to the center of the incident. Miss Kosaka Natsumi can't even meet Uncle Suzuki, so I'm afraid she doesn't meet the criteria."
Hattori Heiji hesitated and said, "But doesn't she get in touch with Mr. Nishino? - After that, she will insist a little bit and sneak into the reception room. A man and a woman alone, no, a man and a boy alone, Kid secretly knocks out Secretary Nishino, and then pretends to be him, and he will become Chairman Suzuki's secretary. This is the absolute core."
Jiang Xia: “…” Why didn’t I realize you were so imaginative before?
Next to him, Conan was also somewhat convinced: "Speaking of the 'shining pavilion', this pavilion is actually shining - I remember the police set up a lot of searchlights on it. Kidd pretended to appear at some famous scenic spot, and then made a feint to the east and attacked in the west, taking the opportunity to appear here... This kind of thing that can surprise the audience is in line with his magic-like bad taste no matter how you think about it!"
As he said this, he looked up and exchanged glances with Hattori Heiji, nodded heavily as if he had met a close friend, and then looked at Kosaka Natsumi.
Natsumi Kosaka was originally still asking about Chairman Suzuki.
At this moment, she suddenly noticed two terrifying gazes. She shuddered and looked over suspiciously.
"..." Jiang Xia moved to the side, looking as if he had nothing to do with the other two detectives.
Then he looked down at his watch and turned to the two students who were planning to tear each other apart: "Have you ever thought that maybe your way of interpreting the notice was not wrong, but you just went a little off track at the last step?"
