Conan and Gin are both my brothers, what's wrong with meeting them once?

Because of Kazuma Kudo's involvement, the fish-frying game ended quickly.

Including the perpetrator, Kyosaka, the Osaka Prefectural Police easily arrested all eight people.

At this moment, Kudo Kazuma was also clearly running a fever. Without saying a word, Hattori Heizo immediately arranged a car to take the three of them, along with Ran and Kazuha, to the Hattori residence.

Since the illness was mainly caused by getting caught in the rain and wind, Kazuma Kudo did not insist on separating from Conan.

Fortunately, we didn't sleep separately, otherwise no one would have known when he developed a fever in the middle of the night.

That night, one of the brothers had a fever, and the other ran around taking care of him. As a result, they both stayed in bed the next day and neither of them got up.

Kudo Kazuma woke up because he sensed an unfamiliar presence approaching.

When he opened his eyes, Kazuma Kudo saw Heiji Hattori reaching out his wicked hand towards Conan, who was still asleep.

"What are you doing?"

The slightly hoarse voice made Hattori Heiji instinctively pull his hand back. Only after realizing that it was Kudo Kazuma who had woken up did he breathe a sigh of relief: "Kudo, why did you scare me?"

Kazuma Kudo sat up, his gaze falling on Heiji Hattori's hand as he tried to scare Conan awake, and he couldn't help but feel speechless.

Who's trying to scare people?

"My brother didn't sleep well last night, you should let him get some more sleep."

Kudo Kazuma noticed the newspaper Hattori Heiji had placed next to him and asked curiously, "Why did you bring this in?"

Hattori Heiji casually picked up a newspaper: "Kid responded in the newspaper, so I brought it here specifically to show you."

That same evening, after receiving Sonoko's call, Kazuma Kudo and Conan arranged a time to go to the Suzuki's house and informed Sonoko via text message.

So, before they arrived in Osaka the next day, they received a formal invitation from the Suzuki family.

As he had said, Jirokichi Suzuki published a message in the newspaper, stating that the Suzuki family, in order to thank Kaito Kid, Conan Edogawa, and Kazuma Edogawa for their help in making the plane crash and saving the second daughter of the Suzuki family, Sonoko Suzuki, was hosting a banquet to invite the three of them, and it would be a question of whether Kaito Kid dared to come.

Kidd's response in the newspaper was naturally aimed at this matter.

Although he didn't know why he was a day late, he did respond, saying he would arrive on time.

Kudo Kazuma put away the newspaper and secretly gave Suzuki Jirokichi a thumbs up.

To be honest, this old man really is just like what Yuanzi said; he's a real old fox when it comes to business.

The invitation seemed like a challenge to Kid, but it actually served to promote the Suzuki family's tradition of repaying kindness and also introduced him, indirectly giving the Suzuki family and his company free advertising.

Now that Kidd has responded in the newspaper, those who didn't notice the report the day before will have to go and read it again, which is like another advertisement.

Just as Kudo Kazuma was lamenting Suzuki Jirokichi's cunning behavior, Conan woke up.

After the two brothers ate a late breakfast that Hattori Shizuka had specially saved for them, they went to Shin-Osaka Station with Kogoro Mouri and Ran and took the Shinkansen back the way they came.

That afternoon, the Suzuki family sent a car to the Edogawa residence to pick up the two and take them to a villa where they usually lived in Tokyo.

Since the two brothers were quite familiar with Sonoko, after Jirokichi Suzuki and Shiro Suzuki's family expressed their sincere gratitude to them, Sonoko took them on a tour of the villa.

At 6:25 PM, five minutes before the banquet officially began, Jirokichi Suzuki, Shiro Suzuki, Tomoko Suzuki, Ayako Suzuki, Sonoko Suzuki, Kazuma Kudo, and the Conan brothers were all seated. As for the other seat that had already been prepared...

Jirokichi Suzuki chuckled, "Looks like that guy won't dare to come."

Sonoko, unconvinced, retorted on behalf of her idol: "Don't say that! There are still a few minutes left. Kaito Kid has already publicly stated that he will be coming. How could he not be?"

Conan, relying on his childish status, spoke up: "Who knows, maybe that guy will disguise himself as someone else..."

As he said this, he mentally complained a little.

That treacherous cousin shouldn't disguise himself as him again; it'll damage his reputation!

Fortunately, Kid had only disguised himself as an ordinary man. After entering the villa with the management staff, he immediately reverted to his Phantom Thief Kid attire.

He placed his right hand on his chest and bowed gracefully to the people present.

"Mr. Suzuki, as agreed, I have come to keep my promise."

Kidd looked up, and behind his monocle was a calm and confident smile.

After greeting the Suzuki family members who were the hosts, he made a special trip to greet his two cousins.

"President Edogawa, and... little Conan, it's been a while, how are you?"

After saying that, he took the initiative to sit with Kudo Kazuma and Conan, and quite consciously sat behind them.

Conan glanced at Kid with his half-moon eyes and chuckled.

Are you trying to take advantage of him verbally?

Just like Ichijin, he's another bratty younger brother!

Kudo Kazuma's gaze also fell on Kid. After smiling and nodding at him, he asked a question he had been pondering ever since he saw Kid: "Aren't you afraid of getting your white clothes dirty while eating, dressed like this for the banquet? Also, this cloak is so big, you'll have to wash it yourself if it gets dirty, right?"

Surely it can't be that old man Terai helps with the washing, right?

Kidd: "..."

His cousin's thought process is truly extraordinary.

No wonder he's never taken medicine before.

In front of outsiders, he had to maintain his image as the Phantom Thief Kid, so he could only smile and say, "These are my personal matters, President Edogawa, you don't need to worry about them, right?"

Kazuma Kudo tilted his head: "I wasn't worried, I was just curious."

Kidd: "..."

This is someone else's house, can we not bring this up?

Left with no other choice, he simply turned his attention to Conan: Your brother, why don't you take care of him!

Conan raised an eyebrow and slowly took a sip of the milk placed in front of him.

I was just taking advantage of him and calling him Conan's little brother. It would be better to let someone with Kazuma's quirky way of thinking teach him a lesson.

He couldn't care less!

Kidd was speechless to himself; both of his cousins ​​were crazy...

Seeing this, Sonoko smiled and said, "Oh my, after working together once, I feel like your relationship has inexplicably improved."

Kazuma Kudo nodded and casually made up a story: "I think so too."

Conan and Kid exchanged a glance, both pursing their lips and remaining silent.

Conan: Who wants to be on good terms with that troublesome cousin and a thief who's always showing off?

Kidd: Who wants to be on good terms with that immature cousin and a detective who's always targeting him?

Seeing the two of them act in unison and react almost identically, Kudo Kazuma smiled at Sonoko and the Suzuki family members: "You see, they do have a pretty good relationship."

Then, he received a blatant eye roll from his own brother and a rather subtle smirk from his cousin...
