Conan: I'm really not a model worker at a winery

Chapter 406 The Coveted Egg of Memories

"It's Conan, not Gongnan! Heiji, you idiot."

Yuan Shanhe Ye got off the back seat of the motorcycle, and looked at his childhood sweetheart speechlessly.

Hattori Heiji sneered twice, "I know, I know, it's just occasional lip service..."

He still feels that Kudo's voice is smoother...

But looking at the look in my friend's eyes that wanted to screw him, why don't I try my best to change my words?

"Ah, even Xiaoping came over this time? It seems that this time will be very lively."

There was a warm smile on Lie's face.

There are so many people... I feel that it would be very boring if they are all played by Kaito. Do you want to quietly help Kaito increase the difficulty of the task?
He thought secretly.

A group of people are considered to know each other, and it will not be awkward to chat.

In such a harmonious atmosphere, they led the way to the living room where their father lived.

When he came up, Shiro Suzuki, the president of the Suzuki Foundation, was just talking with four guests. After seeing Kogoro Mori, he immediately greeted him happily, and then introduced the four people he was talking to just now.

"This is the first secretary of the Russian embassy, ​​Mr. Sioruf Chinnikov." Suzuki Shiro first introduced this tall and strong man, followed by an old man with a slightly hunched back, "This Well, it is the art dealer I invited to appraise the eggs of memories, Mr. Gan Jiangyi."

Then, Suzuki Shiro introduced the only woman among the four to Mori Kogoro, "This is Miss Pusi Qinglan, she is a researcher of the Romanov Dynasty."

"This one over here is a freelance photographer who applied to take photos of treasures, Mr. Samkawa Ryu."

After Suzuki Shiro introduced the wave, Conan was still wondering why these people gathered here, and then the purpose of these four people was also revealed:

Their purpose is very consistent, that is to get the egg of memory.

But compared to Kaito Kidd's stealing mode, these people intend to buy the Egg of Memory from the Suzuki Consortium through normal means.

However, when Shiro Suzuki saw Kogoro Mori coming, he immediately had no intention of negotiating with these four people, and politely invited them out.

The four of them also saw that Shiro Suzuki had other things to do, so they picked up their luggage and left the living room without any hesitation.

Just as they were leaving, Shiro Suzuki's secretary, Masato Nishino, came over with a box in his arms. When he saw a guest leaving, he bowed and greeted him at the door with the box in his arms.

Among the four, Han Chuanlong was the only one who was shocked when he saw him, and quickly walked away from him as if he had seen a ghost.

During this process, Lie's eyes were fixed on the researcher of the Romanov Dynasty, that is, Miss Pu Siqinglan.

The strong gaze can be said to be very blatant, and Conan quickly noticed it.

"Uncle Lin, you already have Doctor Chengshi." Conan narrowed his eyes, his tone slightly teasing.

He found that Mr. Lin especially liked to stare at beautiful women. For example, he stared at Dr. Cheng Shi at first, and also at Teacher Zhu Di, and now he is staring at Pusi Qinglan...

Hearing the teasing in Conan's words, Lie raised his eyebrows, "Well~ Then it's not bad to hug left and right?"

Conan: "?!"

Shocked, Mr. Lin is actually this kind of person? !
Hattori Heiji who eavesdropped: "?!"

Can't tell, Mr. Lin is so ambitious?
"Well~ I'm just kidding." Seeing Conan dumbfounded, Lie was satisfied and stopped teasing him again, "Didn't you hear Miss Pu Siqinglan just said 'nihao'?"

Conan was cute and cute: "Huh? I heard that. It should be a greeting from another country. I don't think Miss Pu Siqinglan really wants to be Japanese."

Lie looked shocked: "Eh? Conan, didn't you hear it?"

He thought Conan knew everything... So he didn't understand Chinese!

Conan: "...?"

Should he hear something?

Overheard Hattori: "...?"

What?What didn't Kudo hear?
"'Nihao' is a greeting used in Chinese to greet unfamiliar people when they meet, or simply to express politeness." Sawada Hiroki, standing between Conan and Retsu, explained indifferently.

He also held a pamphlet for learning Chinese in his hand.

"Chinese, Chinese?"

Conan was dumbfounded.

The associations in my mind are open again - Chinese, Chinese, that Cangfengqian, Chinese, Pusi Qinglan...

Very good, this person called Pusi Qinglan became suspicious in an instant!
But next to him, Hattori Heiji didn't have such a strong association, "So, Miss Pusi Qinglan is Chinese?"

"Maybe~ But maybe it's just Chinese lovers."

Lie's eyes flickered, and he narrowed his eyes and smiled.

He would stare at each other, not just because of that sentence in Chinese that sounded a bit weird...

Skipping over the topic about Pusi Qinglan, everyone focused on the table.

In the box brought by Suzuki Shiro's secretary, Makoto Nishino just now, it contained the target of Kaitou Kidd this time:
The Emperor's Easter Egg, referred to as the Memory Egg.

The egg is green as a whole, with many exquisite silver patterns coiled on the surface, and there is a small sculpture of the Nicholas family made of gold inside.

Lie just glanced at it and was not interested.

"But, what is the meaning of the notice letter from Phantom Thief Kidd? A glowing castle in the sky...Why is Osaka glowing?"

After admiring Kaito Kidd's theft target, Hattori Heiji began to think about some of the meanings implied in the notice letter.

Although he has communicated with Conan before, some doubts in the trailer are still unclear.

"That's because Mr. Taiko, who built Osaka Castle, thinks that the development of Osaka is like light?"

Kazuha next to Hattori Heiji expressed his opinion.

At this time, two people came striding out of the living room, with fierce faces: "That's right! That's why Kidd will appear in the castle tower of Osaka Castle, there is no doubt about it..."

"Officer Nakamori, and Officer Teaki..."

Maori and his party from Tokyo are no strangers to the two of them—because these two people are the main leaders of the task force launched against Kaitou Kidd.

Being able to continue to be responsible for hunting down Kaitou Kidd is also thanks to their rich experience of repeated defeats every time they capture Kaitou Kidd.

"The problem now is the predicted time, 'a clock without a second hand goes to the 12th digit', we still have no clue..." Officer Chamu said with his head down, his face full of resignation.

And Yuan Shan and Ye blinked, "A clock without a second hand? Could it be a pseudonym watch?"

"Fake, pseudonym watch?" Police officers Nakamori and Chamu were both stunned.

"In pseudonyms, No. 12 is 'shi'...that's four o'clock!"

Yuanzi and Xiaolan counted on their fingers, and said pleasantly.

However, Officer Nakamori raised an objection at this time: "No! Kaito Kidd's puzzle can't be so simple..."

"I know the police officer! It's not the list of pseudonyms, but the English alphabet!" Mori Kogoro slapped the table suddenly, showing everything I expected, "No. 12 of the English alphabet..."

Lie, who had been listening all the time, finally couldn't help watching them go further and further on the wrong path, and silently raised his little hand:

"That~ can I interrupt?"
