The world of science is unscientific

Suzuki Shiro spoke up at the opportune moment, confirming that Nishino Masato was indeed severely allergic to feathers.

The police officers who were sent to search the room returned with the ring they had found.

Before anyone could react, Conan ran off again. Ran Mouri quickly caught up, but was persuaded to come back by Shiratori Ninzaburo.

"Officer, have you ever heard of the Scorpion?" Conan asked Inspector Megure, who had somehow returned. "They're the bad guys who steal treasures from the Romanov dynasty in various countries and specifically target the right eye of their targets."

"Now that you mention it, there is indeed such a wanted robber internationally." Inspector Megure recalled for a moment, then asked in surprise, "Could he be the culprit this time?"

Upon hearing Conan mention Scorpion, Suzuki Yusuke suddenly remembered that Gin had asked him to keep an eye on this person. He had been so focused on reminding Kuroba Kaito that he hadn't even asked Gin why he wanted him to.

He frowned slightly and stepped back behind the crowd.

Edit the email.

Why do you want me to pay attention to Skobing? —Grouse

Gin didn't reply immediately this time; he waited for about a minute.

[He's a pretty interesting guy. I'm thinking of seeing if I can recruit him into the organization. —Gin]

I met him. —Grouse

There was no reply. Three minutes later, Gin called directly.

Where would you like your delivery service delivered?

Yusuke Suzuki, who had already reached the deck with his back to the sea, used his original voice.

"I'm all alone."

Have you made contact with them?

"You want me to bring her back without any formal contact?"

"Can't do it?"

“She’s involved in the case. Unless we kidnap her now, but she’s obsessed with the relics of the Romanov dynasty, she won’t cooperate even if we kidnap her.”

There was silence on the other end of the phone for a moment.

"Then you can continue making contacts. If you determine that there is value in recruiting them, I can arrange to snatch them during police transport."

At that moment, Conan walked over, and Suzuki Yusuke casually said, "I'll visit you sometime," before hanging up the phone.

"Brother Yusuke, what are you doing here?"

The wind was a bit strong on the deck, and Conan's voice was somewhat distorted.

"A singer, they're planning to poach him, what's wrong?"

Conan didn't seem to care. "One of the lifeboats is missing. Scorpion might have already escaped. We're going to the castle tomorrow. What about you?"

"I'll go as well."

Yusuke Suzuki picked up Conan with one hand and walked back.

Conan seemed to have given up and stopped struggling.

Chapter 38 Gin: No need to catch him.

That night, Yusuke Suzuki went straight to bed.

He didn't bring any disguise materials with him this time, so he couldn't directly contact Pu Siqinglan, and he didn't think she had any chance of joining the organization.

As an internationally wanted criminal, he certainly meets the organization's requirements in terms of murder and arson, but his pursuit of other goals is another matter.

Pu Siqinglan only wants to take all the treasures and relics of the Romanov dynasty for herself, nothing more. What is there about the organization that can attract her?

No.

The organization wouldn't bother helping her find intelligence, much less treasure; instead, they would demand that she work for the organization.

Even in terms of funding, the organization won't provide much help unless Pu Siqinglan can rise to a high position, at least on par with Gin, but that's unrealistic.

Even if he kidnaps her and threatens her into joining the organization, what's the point? The organization would still have to go through the trouble of investigating and monitoring such a person, and even if all the formalities are completed, they won't trust her much afterward.

However, it's still necessary to make contact, just in case the other party wants to join. At most, I'm just an introducer; I don't need to handle the complicated procedures afterwards.

The next day, everyone went to the castle, but Suzuki Yusuke went home first, ostensibly to change clothes.

Upon returning home, he immediately created a three-layer disguise. Thanks to Kaito Kuroba's improvements, multi-layer disguises were entirely possible, but a maximum of three layers would easily cause problems.

On the outermost layer, Yusuke Suzuki created his own face, and inside were Kaito Kuroba and Ninzaburo Shiratori.

Now, he's wearing his own face.

Just as they arrived at the castle gate, Professor Agasa arrived with the Detective Boys, but Kogoro Mouri stopped them from entering.

But the Junior Detective League can't just stay outside quietly.

Yusuke Suzuki remembered that they found the way into the castle from the ruined tower outside the castle.

He originally wanted to bring Ai Haibara in, but with the children present, he couldn't show favoritism.

Shiratori Ninzaburo was carrying a large bag, which probably contained paragliders and other equipment, as well as the Memory Egg that he had borrowed while posing as a police officer.

After entering the castle, Mr. Sawabe led everyone on a tour.

Upon arriving at Natsumi Kosaka's great-grandfather's room, Conan suddenly asked, "Miss Natsumi, where is your great-grandmother's photo?"

“I don’t have any of them, so I don’t know what my great-grandmother looked like.”

Natsumi Kosaka bent slightly and smiled gently.

At this point, others discovered Rasputin's photograph.

"Dad, who is Rasputin?"

Ran Mouri looked at Kogoro Mouri curiously.

"Well... all I know is that he's a big bad guy."

It was jeweler Mr. Qian who stepped in to explain, "He was also known as the sorcerer Rasputin, the culprit who caused the downfall of the Romanov dynasty."

He briefly held power, but was later killed by the Duke of Uth, a member of the royal family. When he was discovered, his right eye had been gouged out.

Ren Saburo, who had lived for a hundred years, interrupted, "Mr. Inui, I think finding the egg is more important right now."

Three minutes later, Conan discovered a secret room underground and found the mechanism cover by following the direction of Kogoro Mouri's cigarette smoke.

Ran Mouri not only cooperated with Conan throughout, but also stopped Kogoro Mouri from disturbing Conan's free-spiritedness.

Look, he's completely unaware that his identity is about to be exposed. How can he fight the organization with such a lack of vigilance? Suzuki Yusuke didn't care anymore and exchanged glances with Kuroba Kaito, trying to communicate through brainwaves.

In no time, Conan deduced the password as "The Magician of the End of the Century" and successfully unlocked the mechanism.

Suddenly, a stone staircase appeared on the ground leading underground.

The underground space was enormous; the group walked for more than ten minutes without reaching the end. Then, Ai Haibara led the three little ones out from another direction.

"In this world,"

"My only desire is to have your love,"

"Gazing at the flickering lights is an unforgettable experience."

"..."

Ayumi and two other children immediately started singing "Mystery," a song that had just been released not long ago. As soon as the song was released, it soared to the top of the hot song charts, and EW Company also gained fame.

Up until now, none of them had realized that Mr. Inui, the jewel merchant, had disappeared. Suzuki Yusuke was too lazy to remind them, since the man was already dead anyway.

Despite having a lot of lighting equipment, Pu Siqinglan transformed from a beautiful woman into a little black figure in the blink of an eye. Even more absurdly, her body shape changed to that of a man.

This... is very much like Ke Xue's style, isn't it?

After walking for a while, a stone gate blocked their way.

The stone gate is yellow in color and is decorated with many birds.

"Huh?" Mitsuhiko looked at the pattern on the stone gate and pointed to the bird with a crown on its head in the center, saying, "Only that big bird has two heads."

Upon seeing this, Ai Haibara whispered, "The double-headed eagle, the emperor's emblem."

Standing beside her, Conan seemed to be deep in thought as well. "Yeah, is that the sun behind the crown?"

"The sun, light, perhaps..."

Conan ran up to Shiratori Ninzaburo and asked, "Mr. Shiratori, could you please shine a flashlight on the crown now?"

Shiratori Ninzaburo did as instructed, and the crown reflected light directly.

The sounds of mechanisms operating immediately filled the air, and the ground slowly began to sink.

Once the organization was fully operational, a new road appeared.

Inside, there was a locked coffin.

The key that Natsumi Kosaka had brought earlier was just right to open the lock. With Natsumi Kosaka's consent, Kogoro Mouri played the role of a grave robber and opened the coffin to examine the body.

Sure enough, there was a second egg inside.

Conan once again used light to trigger the mechanism of the Egg of Memories, and several photos of Emperor Nicola and his family were immediately reflected on the walls of the basement.

As the photo disappeared, a red dot gradually moved toward Kogoro Mouri's right eye. Conan, having figured out the key point, quickly threw a flashlight at Kogoro, allowing the bumbling detective to barely dodge a shot.

At this point, Suzuki Yusuke could no longer stand idly by and ran extremely quickly toward Urashi Seiran.

He suddenly felt a needle-like sensation in his right eye and quickly turned his head to avoid it.

A bullet grazed the tip of his nose, breaking the outermost layer of his disguise. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Pu Siqinglan grabbed the Egg of Memory and ran away.

Since the face is no longer usable, let's just tear it off.

Yusuke Suzuki tore off his own face, revealing the disguised face of Phantom Thief Kid.

Conan and Shiratori Ninzaburo both looked like they had seen a ghost.

Conan: "???"

Isn't Kid the same person as Shiratori Ninzaburo?

Kaito Kuroba: "!!!"

Yusuke is wearing my vest!
