Chapter 269: The Two Heroes' First Collaboration (4)

"Ding Dong! Ding Dong, Ding Dong!" It was a familiar doorbell sound, a familiar place, but the people who came were two young men, one big and one small, who looked very similar and always had a confident smile on their lips.

Before anyone came to open the door for them, the two of them came together and started talking in whispers.

"Hey, Detective, I feel like there's an indescribable sense of oppression at Brother Lantian's house today. I feel like bad luck is coming."

"Don't mention it. I was just about to tell you this, but it's unlikely. Although Brother Lantian is abominable, the security of his home is very high. If our feeling is correct, then there is only one possibility. The people in the house have already made an appointment to attack the two of us. No wonder the doctor said he had something to do and left early..."

The two of them quickly conspired secretly to see what they were up to, but they didn't know that their every move was seen by everyone in the room.

"These two are truly cunning! One truly is the Sherlock Holmes of the Heisei era, the other the magician of the fin de siècle. Of course, the most amazing thing is that they're cousins..."

"Yeah, especially the great detective, he's a real black-bellied person...", "The great thief is the same, Ai...", "Really? I know the great detective better...", "Me too, but I think Mr. Terai should know, don't you think, old man...", "Ah, this, this, hahaha..."

Finally, as if they remembered that someone was ringing the doorbell, the door of Hua's house slowly opened, and a big one and a small one walked in side by side. They thought that with Hua Lantian's fun-loving personality, it was impossible for him to start to mess with them from here. Sure enough, they walked to the door of the mansion smoothly.

As soon as they opened the door, there was a sudden "bang, clatter...", startling the two. Looking at the colorful plastic pieces scattered all over the sky and the congratulations hanging above their heads, they suddenly felt a surge of guilt. Could it be that they really had misunderstood Hua Lantian? Damn it, if Brother Lantian needed anything later, they would go through fire and water to help him.

The two looked at each other, then looked forward. Hua Lantian was walking towards them with a large group of people, all looking at them with smiles.

"Brother Lantian, and everyone else...!"

Conan shouted excitedly. Kuroba Kaito then nodded to Hua Lantian and the others. After a few pleasantries at the entrance, everyone entered the restaurant and took their seats.

"Thank you all for visiting my humble abode today. Please wait a moment. Ayako and I will serve the dishes to you. Of course, some of the freshly prepared dishes may take a while, so please eat and chat while we eat. After all, we are all quite familiar with each other..."

Then, one cold dish after another was served: sweet and sour spareribs, salted edamame, lotus root with osmanthus glutinous rice, salted shrimp, smashed cucumber, and salad...

After checking the cold dishes, Kuroba Kaito relaxed a little, still maintaining his vigilance. There was no fish, so he should be safe today. Even the hot dishes would have fish, so he didn't have to be afraid.

But what he never expected was that the cold dishes were so delicious that he finished them all in no time. Then he looked at the hot dishes that were served at the back, and suddenly his vision went dark. The main dishes were all made of fish...

Conan sat next to him and looked at him with a playful expression, then ate a few pieces of fish in big mouthfuls, shoveled a few mouthfuls of rice, and raised his eyebrows mockingly at Kuroba Kaito. Naturally, what he got in return was Kuroba Kaito angrily cursing a few words and then turning his head away and no longer looking at the food.

Soon, something happened that really broke Conan's defense. Hua Lantian took out some of his treasured videotapes and asked if everyone wanted to watch them. He instinctively felt that something was wrong, but he felt that Hua Lantian's collection must be good things, so he didn't stop him. In the end, it was all his fault. Just like that, a happy dinner party ended...
