Conan: The Magician of the End of the Century

Chapter 122 Party Invitation

"Okay, then it's a deal!" Seeing the flowers that Kaito conjured from his hands, Qingzi looked at him expectantly and said.

Seeing Aoko's bright eyes, Kaito grinned and said, "No problem, please look forward to it!"

"So, Qingzi, do you have any special gift you want?"

"A gift, what do you want?" Hearing Kaito's question, Aoko thought for a moment, and suddenly had an idea, and said a name that the other party didn't expect, "By the way, Kaito Kid! How about you go and catch Kaito Kid? That's really a good idea!"

"This... I'm afraid..." Hearing Qingzi's request, Kaidou naturally couldn't do something like arresting himself, so he had to smirk and try to get away with it.

"But what is the purpose of Kidd's theft?" Qingzi suddenly raised a doubt that has troubled her all this time, "Didn't he throw away the treasures he got or return them to their original owners every time he succeeded in stealing? Could it be possible? Is he the kind of pleasure criminal who gets satisfaction out of stealing?"

"No, that's because..." Hearing Aoko's guess, Kaito hurriedly wanted to defend Kidd, but was interrupted by the other's next words.

"That's right, it must be like this, he must be playing his father who doesn't have a good rest every night and desperately hunts him down as an idiot!" At this point, Qingzi strongly condemned the other party with tears in his eyes, "Unforgivable, I Will never forgive a big bad who laughs at hard working people!"

Seeing Aoko with a sad and angry face, Kaito's heart was also touched. Although he wanted to tell the other party that he did this only to find out the truth about his father's murder, he couldn't tell Aoko about all this.

……

On the other side, in the classroom of Class B of the second year of Didan High School, facing Xiaolan who extended an invitation to him, Yuanzi lowered his head and folded his hands in apologetic expression: "I'm really sorry Xiaolan, I have already chatted with other people on the Internet tonight. My little friend has an appointment to see Lord Kidd's show, so I can't accompany you to your friend's birthday party."

"It's okay, it's because my invitation was a bit abrupt." Xiaolan waved her hands repeatedly, "Since you have already made arrangements, Yuanzi, then don't pay attention to what I just said."

"Why don't you let Yangzi go with you!" Seeing Xiaolan's expression of regret, Yuanzi suddenly turned to look at Yangzi who was sitting behind and said, "I don't think Yangzi will refuse your invitation from Xiaolan."

Seeing Yuanzi cast his gaze towards her, Yangzi stood up and walked to Xiaolan's side and said with a smile, "Why, it's Xiaolan, do you want to invite me to my friend's birthday party?"

With Yang Zi's hearing ability, she had already heard the conversation between the two clearly. Seeing the faint disappointment on Xiaolan's face, she asked the other party's thoughts directly.

"Ah, that's right, it's actually like this..." Seeing that Yangzi expressed interest, Xiaolan told her about being invited to Qingzi's birthday party and the other party's basic situation.

"It turned out to be Xiaolan, a friend you met when you were part-time job. It seems that the other party is a warm and innocent girl. I also want to know her." After listening to Xiaolan's description, Yang Zi couldn't help becoming a little interested in this girl named Nakamori Aoko .

Seeing that Yangzi readily agreed to the invitation, Xiaolan happily held the other person's hand and said happily, "That's great, it would be a little embarrassing if I was the only one going..."

Seeing this, Yuanzi also echoed: "That's right, I don't feel at ease if Xiaolan is the only one going, if I get entangled by a strange man, or if I run into danger on the way home too late... But You don't have to worry about everything with Yangzi here!"

After a period of integration, the students in the class have regarded Yangzi as the backbone of the group, especially in the circle of girlfriends formed by her, Xiaolan and Yuanzi, they regard her as a big sister who can be completely relied on , That's why Yuanzi said these words.

Hearing Yuanzi's words, although Xiaolan wanted to refute that she was not that weak, but she felt an inexplicable sense of security when she thought of having Yangzi by her side, so she acquiesced to the other party's statement.

"By the way, I ordered a birthday present from Brother Ishino's store. Let's pick it up together after school!" Xiaolan suddenly remembered the gift and said to Yangzi.

Hearing that Xiaolan brought up Shi Ye, Yang Zi pretended not to know him and said, "Brother Shiye? It's Xiaolan who you mentioned before marrying Miss Xia Mei, right? I also heard Grandpa mentioned him, so let's go and see together."

……

After school, Xiaolan led Yangzi across the road in front of the school gate, and soon came to Memory Sweet House.

As soon as he entered the door, Xiaolan saw Toru Amuro standing behind the counter, and greeted him with a smile: "Mr. Amuro, is Brother Ishino in the shop?"

"Xiao Lan, you're here." Seeing Mao Lilan, Amuro Toru responded with a smile, "Mr. Ishino is not here today, but the birthday gift you asked him to make is ready, and I'm waiting for you to come and pick it up .”

As he spoke, Toru Amuro took out a beautifully packaged square gift box from under the counter, walked to the counter and handed it to Xiaolan himself, saying, "This is a fragile item, so handle it with care."

After speaking, he looked at the tall beauty wearing Didan High School uniform beside Xiaolan and asked, "Xiaolan, is this your classmate?"

In fact, from the moment Yoko entered the door, Toru Amuro noticed this girl with extraordinary temperament, and judged from the other party's hair color and facial features that the other party should have the blood of a Western country.

Of course, when Toru Amuro was paying attention to Yoko, Yoko was also observing the other party quietly, and he had long known that the other party was an undercover agent placed by the Japanese police inside the winery.

Thanks to the Japanese police's attention to the bizarre traffic accident and bombing that happened to him 22 years ago, the Kasaka family had the opportunity to hibernate to protect themselves, so Yoko still has a good impression of the Japanese police.

Therefore, after quietly observing Toru Amuro's words and deeds, Yoko had a good impression of the patriotic young man Ishino said.

Hearing Amuro Toru's question, Xiaolan introduced him with a smile: "This is my classmate Sawabe Yoko, I will go to Aoko's birthday party with me later, and she is of mixed race like Mr. Amuro oh!"

"Hello, Mr. Amuro, my name is Yoko Sawabe. I just transferred from Russia this semester. Please give me your advice." Yoko introduced himself with a smile.

"Hi, my name is Toru Amuro. I'm the chef and waiter here. Please come to our restaurant more often." Amuro responded with a business-like smile.

After the two greeted each other, Toru Amuro looked at Xiaolan and asked, "Xiaolan, why didn't I see Sonoko today? Didn't she come with you?"

"Sonoko made an appointment with a friend to see Phantom Thief Kidd today, so she didn't come." After speaking, Xiaolan and Yoko said goodbye to Amuro Toru with a gift box and walked towards the station.
