Science solves cases? No, I am an immortal cultivator!

"What? Moriya Teiji was killed?"

Conan held the voice changer in his hand, his pupils shrinking slightly.

On the other end of the phone, Inspector Megure briefly explained why Moritani Teiji hated him and how he was killed by the man in black last night.

The man in black, the big guy, the sunglasses...

Listening to Inspector Megure's description, Conan couldn't help but think of the guy he followed at the amusement park that night. The characteristics were exactly the same.

This now caused even more turmoil in Conan's heart. If there were a group of men in black standing behind Moritani Teiji, did it mean that they knew he was not dead?

So that's why Moriya Teiji challenged him and forced him to show up?

The only thing that made Conan feel at ease was that the man in black definitely didn't know that he had become smaller, otherwise he would have been finished long ago.

……

Unlike the frightened Conan, Kitagawa Taki was quite relaxed in the office.

Kitagawa Taki and Haibara Ai were watching the news on the sofa, while Miyano Akemi was busy in the kitchen.

He mainly wanted to see the follow-up reports about Teiji Moriya.

But unlike the bombing case which was covered at length, the media outlets were vague about the death of Teiji Moritani and seemed to have little understanding of the inside story.

How could the police keep it so secretive?

Kitagawa Taki felt that his guess was probably correct, and there must be someone inside the police department at the winery.

Then the brewery must have known about his two acts of disguising himself as Gin and Vodka to kill people.

Kitagawa Taki rubbed his chin with his fingers. It would be better if the winery sent Vermouth to Japan for investigation. After all, Vermouth's disguise skills are very advanced.

He had never seen Vermouth again since their last meeting in New York.

Well, Sharon Wynyard as seen on TV doesn’t count.

In addition, there is the matter of the Miyano sisters. It has been so long, and he has not noticed any movements in the winery. It is impossible that he has forgotten about them, right?

"Change the channel."

Haibara Ai's words interrupted Kitagawa Taki's thoughts.

Although Haibara Ai was very curious about Moritani Teiji, she didn't intend to ask too much.

Kitagawa Taki had no intention of telling Haibara Ai and Miyano Akemi about his guess. He himself didn't know the answer, and telling them would only scare them for nothing.

He changed the channel and saw an old man on TV issuing a challenge.

The key point is that the target of the post is none other than Kaito Kidd——

Kaito Kidd, the jewel you have always wanted to get is the Blue Miracle. Currently, this miracle of the sea is decorated on the roof of my large museum in Shiodome. If you want it, just come and grab it!

The old man's name is Suzuki Jirokichi. He is a consultant to the Suzuki Group and also Sonoko's uncle.

Kitagawa Taki's mouth twitched. The love-hate relationship between old man Suzuki and Kidd was about to begin!

"Such a grand gesture, using gems to trap Kaito Kid, truly worthy of the Suzuki Group!" Haibara Ai smiled, then asked, "What is the relationship between Suzuki Jirokichi and Suzuki Sonoko?"

Kitagawa Taki had heard Sonoko mention him before, "He's Sonoko's uncle, and it seems he's been traveling abroad."

Huiyuan Ai jokingly said: "Then you must go this time too?"

If nothing unexpected happens, Sonoko will probably ask him for help.

Beichuan Taki smiled maliciously: "It's just right for me to play with Kidd."

When Haibara Ai saw Kitagawa Taki's smile, her intuition told her that Kaito Kid was going to be in trouble again.

"Why don't you just catch him? Haven't you gotten what you wanted from him yet?"

Ai Haibara remembered that Kitagawa Taki said last time that he wanted to take something from Kidd.

Kitagawa Taki said in the voice of Huihara Ai: "No, I already got it."

"You..." Haibara Ai felt awkward hearing someone speaking in her own voice.

She didn't expect that what Kitagawa Taki was talking about was actually Kaito Kid's voice changing technique, and what Kitagawa Taki had just learned was exactly the same.

"Stop imitating me. It feels... weird!"

Haibara Ai said with her arms crossed.

"Hahahaha!"

"So, Kaito Kid is kind of my teacher, so why would I send him to jail? Besides, a normal prison wouldn't be able to hold him."

Haibara Ai curled her lips. She didn't believe that Kitagawa Taki regarded Kaito Kid as his teacher.

At this time, Kitagawa Taki's cell phone rang.

He picked it up and saw that it was Xiaolan.

After a few pleasantries, Kitagawa Taki realized that it was Hibiki who wanted to treat him to a meal.

Huiyuan Ai teased: "I thought it was Suzuki Sonoko who asked you for help, what did Mao Lilan ask you for?"

"You're asking me to have dinner with you. Why, are you jealous?"

Anyway, after this incident, Haibara Ai must have seen through him, and Kitagawa Taki no longer hides anything.

"I'm going to eat you, you big head ghost, pay attention to your identity, you are my brother-in-law!"

Haibara Ai gritted her teeth and emphasized the word "brother-in-law".

Kitagawa Taki seemed completely oblivious, with a look of relief on his face, "Finally got Ai's approval?"

Haibara Ai snorted coldly, ignored Kitagawa Taki, got up and went to the kitchen.

……

After saying something to Miyano Akemi, Kitagawa Taki drove to the place where he had made an appointment with Xiaolan.

Xiaolan and Eri Kisaki were already waiting in their seats.

Seeing Kitagawa Taki coming, the two stood up.

"Sorry to have kept you waiting." Beichuan Taki smiled, "I never thought that Lawyer Fei is actually Xiaolan's mother."

Last time in the coffee shop, Kisaki Eri did not reveal her identity, so Kitagawa Taki pretended not to know.

"That's a good opportunity to get reacquainted."

Kisaki Eri gestured for Kitagawa Taki to sit down.

"Beichuan, let's order first! We can talk while we eat."

Kisaki Eri didn't call him "Mr. Kitagawa" all the time like she did last time.

Kitagawa Taki ordered two dishes at random and handed the menu to Kisaki Eri.

Hibiki Eri said gratefully: "It was thanks to you that Lan got into trouble yesterday, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous."

"It's my duty, Xiaolan is my good friend." As he said that, Kitagawa Taki glanced at Xiaolan who looked a little unnatural across from him.

Kisaki Eri said with a hint of deep meaning: "No, nothing is as it should be."

For some reason, Kitagawa Taki felt like he was meeting his mother-in-law.

Kitagawa Taki is not the only one who feels this way. Xiaolan has the same feeling. Kisaki Eri usually seems very cold to others, so how could she be as friendly as she is now?

Kisaki Eri continued, "I'm not usually with Lan, but I heard from her that you, Beichuan, take care of her a lot."

Beichuan Taki waved his hand and said, "You're too polite."

The meal ended with the two of them talking, but Xiaolan spoke very little.

Kisaki Eri picked up her bag and said, "I have something else to do, Beichuan, please help me take Xiaolan home!"

Kitagawa Taki nodded, "No problem."

After sending Fei Yingli away, Xiaolan said softly: "Beichuan, let's go back!"

"Are you still calling me Beichuan?" Beichuan Taki covered his chest with his hands, looking heartbroken.

Xiaolan understood what Beichuan Taki meant, and said with a blush: "Taki..."
