Keep busy in the world of Detective Conan

"Oh, no, Brother Lantian, I don't want to meet that cocky detective Kudo Shinichi and have a good conversation with him about the relationship between cousins...!"

At the Blue Parrot Billiard Hall Bar, Kuroba Kaito drank the milk in the glass in one gulp, then looked speechlessly at Hua Lantian who was also drinking, and said.

Hua Lantian took another sip of tea to moisten his throat, then put the cup down and stared at Kuroba Kaito and said seriously:

"Kaito, you don't understand. I have good intentions. Think about it, if you two reveal your identities as soon as possible, then you can cooperate sometimes. Besides, although you are a Phantom Thief and Conan is a detective, logically you two are sworn enemies. However, you actually love and hate each other, right? He will never really catch you. I think your crime is basically nothing in Japan. Even if there is any trouble, I can protect you...!"

Kuroba Kaito was suddenly startled. He suddenly felt as if what Hua Lantian said was quite right. He then shook his head frantically, trying to get rid of this unreliable idea. Then he stopped and calmed down a little, looking at Hua Lantian, and said slowly:

"You almost tricked me, Brother Lantian. Are you kidding me? Phantom Thief and Detective are rivals. Cooperation is only temporary and occasional. You want me to have a long-term cooperation with him? It's impossible. Don't even think about it. And from what I know, Conan is a cunning guy. Plus, he has a sense of justice. He wants to arrest me...!"

"Hahahaha, indeed, he has mentioned arresting you more than once. However, your father, Kuroba Toichi, and his father, Kudo Yusaku, seem to be in constant contact with each other. Does this count as a collaboration between a top detective and a top thief...?"

Hua Lantian first thought that Conan and he and others had indeed gritted their teeth and expressed their determination to catch Kaito Kid and bring him to justice. Then he thought of that expression and smiled very appropriately. Then he mentioned the actions of their fathers, trying to continue to trick Kuroba Kaito into agreeing to cooperate.

As long as he can deal with Kuroba Kaito first, Conan's opinion is not important. He has plenty of ways to make him agree, and he can also get support, that is Kudo Yusaku. Kudo Yusaku will definitely support their cooperation. Of course, Kudo Yusaku is actually a cover. The one who can really deal with Conan is Kudo Yukiko, who can directly control him.

Kuroba Kaito was not in a hurry to continue talking to Hua Lantian. He called Terai Huangzhisuke and asked him for a drink and something to eat. Then Terai Huangzhisuke quickly brought him the things and refilled Hua Lantian's tea before going back to study billiards. He didn't want to disturb the two of them discussing such an important matter.

Kuroba Kaito slowly stirred his new drink. He was struggling with whether or not to cooperate with his cousin and rival. Of course, he knew that there would be many benefits from cooperation. As the saying goes, peace is a win-win situation. However, neither of them was willing to give in to the other. After all, one was good at creating puzzles and the other was good at solving puzzles.

The entire Blue Parrot Billiard Hall Bar fell silent, with only the occasional tapping on glass and the sip of water.

Suddenly, a sound of "Duang...!" broke the entire space. Terai Huangzhisuke, who was studying billiards and trying to avoid gazes, couldn't help but look at the cup in Kuroba Kaito's hand, the source of the sound. At the same time, Hua Lantian slowly put down the cup and looked at him.

Kuroba Kaito clapped his hands, then stood up and announced loudly:

"Yoshi, I've decided...!"
