Conan: Life between Green Plum and Skyfall

As expected, the next day's newspaper published the content of "Detective Maori has descended from heaven to become the nemesis of the monsters and successfully guarded the dark star."

Seeing the content in the newspaper, Conan finally breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, he had prepared in advance and handed the Black Star to Uncle Maori, otherwise, he would have been published in the newspaper!

As for Maori, after picking up such a great bargain for free, he was also very happy. As a reward for his successful recovery of the Black Star, Suzuki Tomoko handed over all the fake Black Stars she had forged to Maori Kogoro.

Of course, when Suzuki Tomoko made this decision, a fool in the audience started shouting:

"Madam, aren't these pearls a gift from you to us? Isn't it a bit inappropriate to give them all to this detective now?"

Well, the person who spoke was the same idiot who had previously questioned why the pearl exploded.

"Which group is this guy from? Why have I never seen him before?"

"I don't know him either. He must be the owner of a small business. He happened to get an invitation, so he came here to try his luck and see if he can meet some people from the consortium."

"I think I've seen him before. His name seems to be Katsuhiko Takei, right? He's the boss of a small company. Is he an idiot? How dare he question Mrs. Suzuki's decision?"

"Haha, this idiot, he thought that this would make Mrs. Suzuki look at him with a higher regard? What an idiot!"

Listening to the discussions around him, Katsuhiko Takei didn't take their words to heart. Just kidding, he had finally gotten an invitation to this banquet, wasn't it just to show off in front of all the important people?

As long as you leave an impression in everyone's mind, even if you are a clown, you are successful!

However, he succeeded, but also failed. He did leave a deep impression on everyone, but he was also sentenced to death in Suzuki Tomoko's heart.

Are you kidding me? A small character dares to question the decision of the Suzuki Group? You're so shameless!

Thus, the plan of this calculating president was aborted.

Finally, besides him, there was another person who was in a bad mood, and that was Ginzo Nakamori.

Trusting his sixth sense, Officer Nakamori carefully counted the number of people on board before disembarking. The result was the exact same number of people as when they boarded! Not a single person was missing.

When he questioned Mao Li with this evidence, Mao Li responded confidently:

"The thing is, after I took the Black Star back from Kaito Kidd, Kaito Kidd did escape using a smoke bomb! And I didn't say he left the ship!"

Kogoro Mouri said confidently.

When Officer Nakamori asked him to identify who Kidd was, he said unreasonably:

"The face I saw wasn't among the guests. Perhaps Kidd had already disguised himself during the commotion in the hall. After I exposed him and he escaped, he removed the disguise and blended back into the crowd.

After all, the boat still had half an hour to go ashore.”

Sure enough, although Mao Li's reasoning ability was average, he was very good at making up stories. Look, even though time was tight, he still managed to come up with a passable excuse in a very short time.

Anyway, Officer Nakamori didn't see any flaws in him.

Although Ginzo Nakamori still had some doubts about 'Kudo Shinichi', he had personally confirmed at that time that there was no disguise on Kudo Shinichi's face.

Therefore, he could only helplessly let everyone leave. However, when he saw Kaito's back leaving, he still did not give up his suspicion of him.

......

"So, Officer Nakamori questioned you several times after he returned?"

Looking at Kaito in front of him, Conan asked curiously.

"Yeah! Don't you think he's really going too far? I didn't do anything, but he actually interrogated me like a criminal! If it weren't for Qingzi, I'm afraid I would still be locked up in the room and being interrogated by him!"

Kaito started to complain to Conan. He was really impressed. He had disguised himself so well that he had fooled almost everyone. But why was Nakamori Ginzo still staring at him?

"Haha, I deeply sympathize with your situation."

Giving Kaito a look of pity, Conan smiled and said, "I can only say that this is my father-in-law's sixth sense."

"What are you laughing at! How come, if Officer Nakamori can tell that I'm Kuroba Kaito, then tell me, is it possible for that uncle to tell that you're Kudo Shinichi?

Didn't you say it? This is the old father's sixth sense for those who want to steal his little cotton-padded jacket."

Seeing Conan's mocking expression, Kaito said unhappily. Hearing this, the smile on Conan's face disappeared instantly.

"Shouldn't it be, isn't Uncle Maori a useless uncle unless it involves his family?"

After worrying for a moment, Conan shook his head violently:

"No, you're definitely overthinking it, Uncle Maori. He's not that smart! Okay, stop changing the subject and tell me your voice-changing skills and how to break the disguise!"

Kaito gave him the same look that Conan had given him just now: "You're escaping reality, right? Absolutely!"

However, he didn't say anything, just nodded and started the teaching task he had promised Conan.

Rather than staying here with this unlucky detective, he wanted to finish teaching as soon as possible and go back to accompany Qingzi!

Recently, because of the Dark Star incident, he hasn't spent much time with Qingzi.
