Conan: Life between Green Plum and Skyfall

Looking at Conan's guilty face, Xiao Ai sighed. As expected, she knew that Conan would always make various mistakes in these minor details.

But there was nothing she could do, since it was her own choice. So, she shook her head helplessly, found Xiaolan, and told her that she was going to stay at Mingmei's place tonight and would not be coming back.

After hearing what Ai said, although there was a hint of reluctance and unwillingness in Xiaolan's eyes, she did not refuse. Instead, she nodded and agreed to Ai's request.

Although in her eyes, Ai and Akemi are just good friends, and her relationship with Ai should be closer than theirs, this does not mean that she will force Ai to stay with her.

Besides, Ai hasn't stayed overnight at Mingmei's place for a long time, so it's not unacceptable to allow her to stay there for one night.

So, with the consent of Xiaolan and without Kogoro Mouri's knowledge, Ai obtained the right to stay overnight at Akemi's place.

Returning to Conan, she looked at him with a smile:

"Your suggestion is quite useful. Xiaolan agreed to let me stay at my sister's place. By the way, great detective, are you sure it won't take too long? It's rare for me to stay at my sister's place, and I want to have a good chat with her~"

"Don't worry, if nothing unexpected happens, Kidd will most likely show up in the early morning."

Conan nodded. He probably hadn't interfered with Kidd's debut, so the time and place of Kidd's appearance shouldn't have any impact... probably.

Thinking of this, Conan's expression changed slightly. Although he had no influence on Kidd, Kidd was still blamed by Sister Bayonetta!

His appearance this time, besides showing off in front of the public, is more importantly to clear his name! As for whether he will continue to develop according to the plot of the anime, he really can't say.

"? You're not sure anymore, are you?!"

Looking at Conan's expression, Xiao Ai was also speechless. No, you don't even know when he will appear?

At this moment, she suddenly regretted agreeing to go with Conan to see Kid.

"It's not that we're unsure about when he'll appear, it's more that the time in his announcement is vague. According to the code he sent, he'll appear between 12 and 4:30. As for a more specific time, I'm not sure."

Conan scratched his head in embarrassment. He didn't want to do that either. It was because the message in Kid's code was so vague this time!

Looking at Xiao Ai's somewhat disgusted expression, Conan hesitated for a moment:

"How about this, I'll go to the Beihu Hotel and get a room for you and Sister Mingmei. You can stay there tonight. When the time is almost up, I'll go to the room and call you."

This way, it won't attract the attention of the police, it's a way to kill two birds with one stone!

"......Do you have money?"

Looking at Conan, Ai asked a soul-searching question.

"that's not important."

Looking at Xiao Ai, Conan rolled his eyes and took out a gold card:

"I don't have any money, but I can use a credit card!"

Looking at the name 'Kudo Yusaku' on the card, Xiao Ai twitched her lips:

"Uncle Yusaku is so lucky to have a son like you!"

"Haha, I think so too~"

Conan pretended not to hear and touched his head with a smile.

(After Conan used Yusaku's card to book a room at the Haido Hotel, Yukiko looked at the text message on her phone that said Kudo Yusaku had booked a room, and the text message Yusaku sent to her saying that he had some social engagements tonight and would not be back, and fell into deep thought.)

......

On the other side, there was a knock on the door of Kuroba Kaito, who was packing his equipment and preparing for the performance tonight.

"Who is it? Is it Grandpa Terai... Why are you here?!"

Kaito looked at Koizumi Hongzi outside the door with a hint of vigilance on his face. Although he didn't believe in magic, he always knew that nothing good would happen when he met this guy!

Besides, I don’t think I told her where I live! How on earth did she find me?

"Kid, are you sure you want to go over tonight?"

Hongzi gave a mysterious smile, looked at Kaito, and spoke directly.

"! Who is Kidd! Koizumi-san, do you have anything else to say? If not, can you please leave? I still have things to do."

Kaito's heart skipped a beat as he listened to Anko's words. However, he managed to keep a poker face, trying not to let the woman in front of him notice anything.

"Huh, even though that Bai Ma guy is annoying, thanks to him always using Kidd to trick me, otherwise, I really wouldn't be able to hold on."

With a stern face, Kaito sighed in his heart.

Seeing that Kaito didn't want to admit it, Hongzi didn't say anything more, but just smiled at him:

"Is that so? However, Kaito-kun, I want to remind you of one thing. According to the prophecy, if you go to the Haido Hotel tonight, your secret will be exposed by someone."

After saying that, Hongzi turned around and left.

"? Are you sick?"

Kaito rolled his eyes in annoyance as he watched Hongzi leave. What secret would be exposed? He kept talking nonsense all day and even made predictions. In this materialistic world, there was no such thing as predictions!

After complaining a few words, he closed the door, returned to the room and continued to prepare.

But for some reason, Hongzi's warning kept echoing in his mind.

"Will it be exposed? Hmph, then let's give it a try!"

As he said this, Kaito picked up the disguise tools and started fiddling with them on his face.

Want to expose his true face? Sure! The prerequisite is that you have to find your true face among the countless false masks!

"Don't think you can catch me by taking off your monocle. As a Phantom Thief, it's normal to have a thousand faces~"

However, if Kid knew that Conan knew his true identity from the beginning, and that he had no intention of taking off his glasses but wanted to use other methods to force him to admit that he was Kid, he would probably be furious!

It's clearly a clash between a detective and a phantom thief, why would someone cheat?

Of course, Kaito, who didn't know the real situation, kept fiddling with his face, putting layer after layer of disguise mask on his head.

"That should be enough, right? Humph, it's not that easy to catch a thief!"

Looking at his swollen cheek, Kaito nodded in satisfaction.
