Out-of-control players in the world of Detective Conan

Sonoko Suzuki's gaze remained fixed on Kaito Kuroba.

She looked at Ran Mouri and said.

"Ran, call Kudo. If he doesn't answer, it means the person in front of you is lying."

Ran Mouri's expression froze for a moment, then she looked at Conan.

Who knows if Shinichi Kudo's phone is on him right now?

If I make that call and Conan's phone rings, wouldn't that be really awkward?

"This, this isn't a good idea. Shinichi might be working on a case."

Ran Mouri chuckled awkwardly.

"Oh, it's just a phone call anyway. And could you please take your phone out?"

"Good good."

Sonoko Suzuki had no idea what kind of medicine Shinichi Kudo had given Ran Mouri.

Or perhaps, these two are toying with themselves!

Conan finally came to his senses and quickly stepped forward with a smile.

"Sonoko-neechan, let me make the call. I also have Shinichi-nii's phone number."

"Sure, it doesn't matter who plays."

Conan breathed a sigh of relief, took out Shinichi Kudo's phone, and called himself.

While looking at his phone screen, Conan kept glancing at Kaito Kuroba out of the corner of his eye.

I always feel like he's become a stand-in.

How come this person looks exactly like him? I've never heard my dad mention that he has a twin brother.

Could it be that... Dad had an affair when I was born? And this is my half-brother?!

Conan was puzzled.

Once the call connects, you'll likely hear a message from the receiver indicating that the number you dialed is busy.

But unsurprisingly, an accident still occurred.

Jingle Bell--

Kaito Kuroba's phone rang.

Kaito Kuroba could no longer maintain his poker face.

After a few seconds of silence, Sonoko Suzuki stepped forward and pinched Kaito Kuroba's face tightly.

"Well, you're one of those guys, so you still say you're not Shinichi Kudo?"

"Young Miss, I'm innocent! I'm truly innocent!"

Kaito Kuroba cried out in pain, staring at Conan with disbelief in his eyes.

Is this person messing with me?

No, when exactly did this detective find out about my identity as Phantom Thief Kid?

Knowing my identity is one thing, but how did they also know my phone number?

Ran Mouri was also stunned, and her gaze also fell on Conan.

Conan has already revealed his identity to me, saying that he is Shinichi Kudo.

What the hell is this?

Another Shinichi Kudo in the world?

"..."

After a brief moment of distraction, Conan turned to look at Qi Ming.

Seeing Conan's expression, Qi Ming smiled in a friendly manner.

Even Conan could tell with his own eyes that Qi Ming was behind this.

"Xiao Lan, hurry up and show this amorous man your karate skills!"

"Oh dear, young lady, please spare me! I'm really not Shinichi Kudo!"

……

ten minutes later.

Kaito Kuroba, his face red from the physical splatter, stared at Sonoko Suzuki with a resentful look.

Sonoko Suzuki, her face flushed, kept bowing to Kaito Kuroba.

After some explanation, Kaito Kuroba finally proved that he was not Shinichi Kudo.

The price he paid was that he revealed his true identity, and was even forced to call other people to help verify his identity in order to clarify the situation.

"I'm sorry, Kuroba-kun, I'm so sorry, I've mistaken you for someone else. Do whatever you want to me!"

"No need to apologize, Miss. I just didn't expect that I would look so much like Shinichi Kudo."

When Sonoko Suzuki apologized, Kaito Kuroba kept waving his hands to indicate that it was nothing.

Although he did harbor some resentment, he thought to himself that he had already stolen from the Suzuki Group several times, so perhaps this was the tribulation he was destined to suffer.

Come to think of it, Sonoko Suzuki is actually a fan of her own.

Let's just treat it as an idol meeting with fans and pinching each other's cheeks.

"it's okay no problem."

"No, no, no, I was being very unreasonable."

Kaito Kuroba glanced at the time on his phone and waved to the crowd.

"It's alright, everyone. I have something to attend to, so I'll be going now..."

Kaito Kuroba had only taken two steps when he suddenly stopped, his face grim as he touched his pocket.

Noticing Kaito Kuroba's unusual behavior, Sonoko Suzuki asked curiously:

"What's wrong with Kuroba-kun?"

"Um, it seems like my wallet was stolen."

Kuroba Kaito smiled awkwardly.

"Oh dear, this is going to be difficult..."

Kaito Kuroba shook his head with a bitter expression.

This is a lie.

Although there was a slight unexpected hiccup, he still remembered the main task.

He wants to join their team!

Despite the presence of a spirit he's somewhat afraid to face and a detective who could discover his identity at any moment.

However, it's best to remove the Bloodshed debuff first, no matter what.

Is Osaka such a dangerous city?

Kogoro Mouri retorted, "He's already resorting to regional prejudice right off the bat."

"Huh? Kuroba-kun, your wallet got stolen?"

Sonoko Suzuki said with some surprise, then her eyes lit up.

"If you don't mind, Kuroba-kun, why don't you come with us? Consider it my apology for my rudeness earlier."

"Um, will this affect you guys?"

Kaito Kuroba pretended to be embarrassed when he replied, but he was already laughing to himself.

My wallet was stolen, and you, this spoiled brat, even managed to beat me up.

If you can resist helping a poor, ordinary person like me, then that's a bit unreasonable.

Sonoko Suzuki waved.

It's just bringing one more person, no big deal.

Besides, it's quite a coincidence to see someone who looks so much like Shinichi Kudo.

"No, no, wait a moment, I'll make a call and call another car."

Conan suddenly leaned forward and smiled at Kaito Kuroba.

He always felt that this person who looked exactly like him was somewhat suspicious, and it wouldn't hurt to go up and ask.

As for Qi Ming?

The anti-Qi Ming and anti-organization alliance they formed a few days ago has finally decided to leave him alone for the time being.

If you don't have the ability, the more you try to control things, the more problems are likely to arise.

"Hey, big brother, you seem so familiar. Have we met somewhere before?"

Kaito Kuroba's lips twitched.

The worst thing happened; that stinky detective really did come knocking on my door.

"Really? Maybe it's because I look like the Shinichi Kudo you guys are talking about?"

"Maybe so, but big brother, you're really bold. Aren't you afraid we might be bad guys?"

Conan asked Kaito Kuroba with a grin.

"Well, I don't really think a team with two kids and two girls would be bad people, hahaha."

"Hey, brother is so naive."

"Hehe, I'm such a simple-minded person."

They smiled at each other simultaneously, each lost in their own thoughts.

Kaito Kuroba, fearing he might reveal a weakness, ended his conversation with Conan.

He took a deep breath and then slowly turned his head.

He had felt a gaze fixed on him ever since he started.

That's the spirit!

"Excuse me, why is this handsome gentleman staring at me?"

"Ok?"

Qi Ming stared at Kuroba Kaito, only snapping out of his daze upon hearing the other's words.

"Uh, I'm looking at your information. There are so many of your achievements that I haven't had a chance to catch my breath yet."

Kaito Kuroba scratched his head, looking somewhat puzzled.

"Battle record? What do you mean?"

"It was you who stole the treasure..."

"Hey! Handsome guy, really handsome guy, please don't say that in front of so many people, please, please!"

Upon hearing what Qi Ming was about to say, Kuroba Kaito quickly came to Qi Ming's side, bowed, and begged, his big eyes blinking rapidly.

As the saying goes, you can't hit a smiling face. Although Kaito Kuroba and Shinichi Kudo have the same face, there's something strangely comforting about what the other person says.

Qi Ming smiled and waved.

"Fine, then I won't mention that you stole the gems."
