Ke Xuezhuo's son-in-law

Chapter 575 Resurrection Egg
  In the No. 1 conference hall of Dongdu Metropolitan Police Department, the tense atmosphere became thicker with the slight buzz of the air conditioner, as if even the dust in the air settled. The clock on the wall was ticking like a countdown bell, reminding every police officer present that time waits for no one.

There is a long conference table in the conference hall. Various documents and laptops are scattered on the table. The iconic pattern of Kaitou Kidd is flashing on the display screen:
  [From the lion at dusk to the girl at dawn, the clock without a second hand reaches the 12th word, descends from the luminous sky pavilion, and receives the egg of memory. 】

The police officers had different expressions. Some frowned, some crossed their hands on their chests, and some stared at the Chamu administrator, waiting for his instructions.

Administrator Chamu's figure stood out in front of the podium. His suit was straight and his silver hair shined under the light, but this brilliance could not conceal the worry between his brows. His face was engraved with the traces of time, but his sharp eyes revealed unquestionable determination and strength.

He raised the notice letter in his hand and pressed the paper tightly with his fingers, almost making people worry that the slender paper would break due to too much force.

"This is more than just a notice." Chaki's voice seemed to come from a deep well, deep and powerful, "This is Kaitou Kidd's challenge to us and a provocation to the law!"

Officer Nakamori took over the topic, his glasses flashing under the light, and began to decipher the contents of the notice letter. Although he tried to sound confident, confusion was revealed in his words from time to time: "Kidd's previews are usually full of mysteries, but this time he mentioned the constellation, which may be a hint about timing."

"The last day of Leo to the first day of Virgo..." he mused, "This may mean that he will choose to take action at the night when the stars are transferred, and he seems to plan to enter from the direction of the castle tower."

"We must be prepared to meet his challenge." After finishing speaking, Officer Zhongmori looked solemn and seemed helpless.

Manager Chamu stepped forward again and took over the situation. His appearance is serious, like a sculpture: "In addition to the elites of our Metropolitan Police Department, the Osaka Police Headquarters will also give us full support. Moreover, we also have the 'Sleeping Moori Kogoro'."

As soon as he finished speaking, a burst of deep laughter suddenly sounded in the venue. Everyone turned around and saw Mouri Kogoro sitting leisurely at the back. After noticing everyone's gaze, he smiled awkwardly, "Haha, 'sleeping' sounds like he's saying that I'm always on the case. Sleep at the discovery site." Then he turned serious and promised, "But I promise everyone, this time, Kaito Kidd will not be able to escape."

Originally, the police did not intend to let outsiders intervene in this case, but Mouri Kogoro was specially recommended by the Suzuki Foundation, and he could not refute it. Moreover, Mouri Kogoro was once a member of the Metropolitan Police Department, so he was not an outsider.

Manager Chamu nodded. He turned to the screen behind him and touched the remote control. An interior picture of the Suzuki Contemporary Art Exhibition Hall appeared on the screen.

"The layout of the Suzuki Contemporary Art Exhibition Hall is like this." He began to describe in detail. "The walls are made of transparent high-strength synthetic materials, which can prevent any physical impact. Each exhibit is placed in an anti-theft glass cabinet, and each corridor and corners, we are equipped with high-definition cameras, leaving no blind spots.”

"The Suzuki Contemporary Art Exhibition Hall will be our main battlefield." Manager Chamu continued to explain, "The security system in the museum is the most advanced, and we will also deploy additional manpower to conduct 24-hour surveillance."

He began to describe the layout of the venue in detail, and a three-dimensional model of the Suzuki Contemporary Art Exhibition Hall appeared on the screen in the conference room. The walls are made of transparent, high-strength synthetic materials, and exhibits are carefully placed in anti-theft glass cabinets. Every corridor and corner is equipped with high-definition cameras, leaving no blind spots.

"We will arrange manpower at each entrance, and all persons entering and exiting must undergo strict identity verification." A police officer suggested, with a determined look on his face.

"Police officers must be on duty at each monitoring point in turn, and no negligence is allowed." Another police officer followed closely, his voice as firm as steel.

The discussions gradually became specific and detailed, with every aspect from personnel allocation to emergency plans carefully considered. The expressions of the police officers were determined. They all understood that this mission was of great significance to them and the entire Metropolitan Police Department. Finally, Manager Chamu stood up and looked around the conference room, his eyes lingering on the faces of every police officer. "Everyone, we cannot fail. Kaitou Kidd is a master, but we are the guardians of the law. We must not only protect these priceless treasures, but also protect our justice and beliefs."

"When the time comes to take action, I hope everyone will go all out and show the strength of our Metropolitan Police Department."

"It seems like it won't work here, Kaito. We may have to find another way."

On Fujiwara's blue work clothes, the "Osaka Electric Power Plant" logo is particularly eye-catching under the light. He stands in the penumbra, and the light spots cast by the work light dance on his forehead, reflecting the slight frown on his brow. This For a moment, his whole body exuded an imperceptible tension and thought.

"Really, let's change to another one. Anyway, we have three plans."

Kaito was wearing an engineering hat and leaning against the edge of the booth. One hand was casually inserted in his trouser pocket, and the other hand was holding a paper cup, which he raised from time to time to take a sip.

"The police security has been upgraded this time, and we can't be careless." Fujiwara said, his fingers dexterously rotating on the wires, and then he put them back into the tool box as if he was dissatisfied.

Kaito smiled softly, his eyes seemed to hide countless secrets and strategies. "So, are you ready to go back?"

"Well, I'm done."

At this moment, Fujiwara's cell phone suddenly rang, ruining the relaxed atmosphere between the two. Fujiwara quickly took out his phone, with a hint of haste in his movements. However, when he saw the name on the screen, a gentle and professional smile immediately appeared on his face.

He picked up the phone and held the phone tightly to his ear. "Hello, Mrs. Suzuki." His voice was smooth and confident, trying his best to conceal his inner plot.

On the other end of the phone, Tomoko Suzuki's anxious voice penetrated the other end of the phone, "We need a trustworthy person here to help guard the Egg of Memory. Fujiwara, can you come over?"

A hint of cunning flashed in Fujiwara's eyes, but his voice remained calm, "I won't let Kidd succeed. Don't worry, Mrs. Suzuki." His words were full of firmness and comfort.

After hanging up the phone, the smile on Fujiwara's face gradually faded, replaced by an almost imperceptible sly smile. "Mrs. Suzuki trusts me so much, Kaito." He teased softly, his eyes flashing with fox-like shrewdness.

Kaito gently pushed his engineering hat and stood up slowly, dust falling gently with his movements. "Brother Xinghai, you are known as 'Kidd's Nemesis', you are really good at playing." His voice was low but with obvious pleasure.

"Yeah, but don't be careless. This time there are not only the police but also Conan and that Hattori Heiji. Anyway, it's better to be careful and go all out."
