Conan: After teaching the protagonist, they offered their loyalty.

"Now, please open the box and see what's inside." Tomoko Suzuki smiled.

Fuheshner used his thumb to pry open the box, glanced inside, and his pupils contracted...

Inside the box is a gem, resembling a dark star, but not real; even so, it is still expensive.

Although not a true dark star, it is exquisitely crafted, made entirely of diamonds, and very expensive.

The Suzuki Group... is outrageously extravagant.

"Could this be?!" The guest couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

“That’s right, this is the plan I came up with to deal with that thief,” Tomoko Suzuki explained. “The gem in the box is the Suzuki family heirloom, Dark Star.”

"Of course, the material of each gem in the box is similar to that of the Dark Star, but only one of them is real."

"As for which one is real, only I know... Now, please pin the gems to the most conspicuous place on your chests. After the banquet, let's see if that thief can obtain the real Dark Star."

After he finished speaking, a loud noise erupted from below.

"What a brilliant idea!"

"She's really amazing, as expected of Mrs. Suzuki."

The guests were discussing it animatedly...

"Hey, Jinji, why didn't you tell me you were coming?" After the speech, Sonoko Suzuki walked over unnoticed, looking at Jinji with a hint of resentment. "You came without even telling me..."

Fuheshen: "I've been a bit busy lately and haven't seen it."

"It's alright, it's alright, it's good that you're here, Shin-nii." Sonoko Suzuki said with a smile after hearing this, then turned to Ran, "By the way, Ran, have you seen my sister?"

"Ayako-neechan?" Ran thought for a moment, "I don't think I saw her."

"Oh, I see..." Sonoko Suzuki took out her phone and dialed a number. "Hello, where are you...?"

Her expression quickly changed from confusion to surprise. "What?! You're saying you and my dad are both at home?!"

Upon hearing this, Conan's pupils contracted sharply, and he looked towards the stage, only to find that Suzuki Shiro was no longer there.

He yelled "Damn it!" and then pounced on the table like a mad dog, standing up and observing his surroundings.

After not seeing anyone, he immediately understood what was going on.

He jumped off the table and rushed towards the staff's location.

His expression was manic, as if he wanted to vent his anger on Kaito Kid.

"Honestly, whose child is this?"

"There's a hooligan here!"

"You bumped into my butt."

"Mmm~ One more time..."

During the banquet, many people frowned, feeling as if their thighs and buttocks had been bumped, and spoke up.

When Kogoro Mouri noticed, he quickly went over and bowed deeply in apology.

Meanwhile, Conan continued his reckless rampage, and with his ever-answering aura, he successfully found out the whereabouts of Suzuki Shiro (Kaito Kid).

He went to the women's restroom, ignored the sign that read "No Men Allowed," walked to a stall, opened it, and discovered a disguised human face mold and clothing inside. His lips curled into a wide grin.

"So he really did sneak in through Chairman Suzuki!" Conan trembled with excitement. "Kaito Kid!"

If he can catch the other party this time... he will thoroughly humiliate Phantom Thief Kid.

It swept away that feeling of frustration I'd been feeling lately!

.........

"Conan? Are you here?" Ran chased after Conan after he disappeared and came to the storage room.

Based on her understanding of Conan, he's either in the storage room or in the women's restroom...

"Seriously, Conan..." Ran said, hands on her hips and half-moon eyes after finding the storage room empty.

*Pfft*

A white gas suddenly emerged.

A wave of drowsiness washed over her instantly, and Xiaolan's eyelids drooped involuntarily before she leaned back.

Snapped..

At this moment, Kaito Kid emerged from behind the storage room door, gentlemanly helped Ran Mouri up, and placed her in the storage room.

"It seems this must be Shen's childhood sweetheart." Phantom Thief Kid placed Ran in the storage room.

According to the development pattern of the Detective Conan world, people who are close to each other are generally considered to be childhood sweethearts.

When Kaito Kid was impersonating Chairman Suzuki, he happened to see Shinobu holding the girl's hand.

........

"Huh... Where's Ranne-chan?" Conan looked around after returning to the exhibition hall.

"Hmph, it's all because you, you brat, went to find me." Kogoro Mouri angrily punched Conan.

"I'm here, Conan." Ran (Kaito Kid) stepped out from the side, looking at Conan with a slightly angry expression. "Where did you go just now?"

"I... I need to pee, so I'm going to the toilet," Conan said, pretending to be a child and acting cute.

Fuhesh stared at Xiaolan...

He can no longer smell the fragrance of orchids.

Could it be that Kaito Kid is impersonating Ran like in the original story?

Perhaps... he really should teach Xiaolan some basic skills to protect herself.

Although Xiaolan has strong fighting skills, she is still unable to handle certain situations on her own.

"What's wrong, Brother Shen'er..." Xiao Lan tiptoed closer to Shen'er, her face showing some confusion...

Just when we were about to reach a point of ambiguous intimacy...

Fuheshen reached out and pressed his hand directly against the other person's cheek.

"Ouch, that hurts! What are you doing, Brother Shen?" Xiao Lan cried out in pain, took a step back, and rubbed her face.

No, that's not right. Aren't you childhood sweethearts?

Why do I feel so strongly averse to being near you?

"Hey, what are you doing?" Conan rushed to Ran's side after seeing this. "Ran-chan, are you alright? Does it hurt?"

"Don't get so close to me..." Fu Heishen glanced at Xiao Lan indifferently.

He felt a strong sense of unease and discomfort as a face that didn't belong to Lan approached his.

"It's nothing... Conan..." Ran smiled apologetically, "It's my fault, I didn't notice..."

Although he was smiling, there was still a hint of resentment in his eyes; Shen'er had just grabbed him and hurt him.

“I don’t like interacting with others like this.” Fuheshen glanced at Xiaolan.

Oops... Oh no.

Xiao Lan (Kaito Kid) broke out in a cold sweat. He didn't have enough information. Was this girl really Shen's childhood friend?

I was careless after all; I didn't investigate Shen'erge's interpersonal relationships properly.

He didn't tell Shen'er Ge beforehand that he was dressed as Xiao Lan. He had originally planned to give Shen'er Ge some benefits using the identity of 'Xiao Lan'.

"Shen'ergege, why are you acting strange?" Conan stared at Shen'er with some suspicion in his eyes.

Ever since Conan learned that Kaito Kid had come out of the restroom and changed his identity, everyone seemed strange to him.

Shen'er in the past...wouldn't treat Lan like this, why is her attitude so bad today?

Could it be that Shen Gege was switched by Kaito Kid?

"Is there?" Fuhei Shen looked down at Conan.

Conan, hands in his pockets, walked up to Shinobu and tentatively asked, "By the way, Shinobu-gege, I still don't know why you're here. Are you here to catch Kaito Kid too?"

"No, I came here to help a friend named Kuroba..." Fuheishen said truthfully.

The fake Xiaolan standing to the side was stunned for a moment...

Sure enough, he guessed correctly; Shen'erge was related to his father.
