Isn't it very scientific to use the Death Note to kill people?

Conan's mouth twitched when he heard this, but Suzuki Shiro nodded repeatedly... At this time, he found that Lin Jiashu had walked aside at some point. He looked at his mobile phone and kept typing, as if he was chatting with someone through text messages?

Okino Yoko: "My concert is tomorrow, and I've been busy rehearsing and adjusting lately. I don't feel like I've had much time to chat with Yoshiki-kun..."

Lin Jiashu: "Thank you for your hard work."

Lin Jiashu: "My uncle was just talking about you. Are you nervous about tomorrow's performance?"

Okino Yoko: "A little bit... but thanks to Yoshiki-kun's support, I'm in great shape now! (??ω?`)"

Hayashi Yoshiki: "Yoko, you're so cute."

Okino Yoko: "Hey, will Yoshiki-kun come over to listen to my performance?"

Lin Jiashu: "Yes, I will."

“…”

Because Yoko Okino had to continue rehearsing and Hayashi Yoshiki didn't want to stare at his phone all the time, the two of them just chatted briefly.

Returning to the topic, Conan couldn't help but ask, "Brother Jiashu just said that you have some ideas. What exactly did you think of?"

Although Kogoro Mouri's inference was outrageous, Conan did get some inspiration from it.

Although he hasn't successfully deciphered it yet, Conan is getting particularly excited - he's lost to Hayashi Yoshiki time and again in solving cases, so he should be able to win back a game in deciphering the code, right?

"Ah, 'When the moon parted the two', the two people probably refer to the artificial satellite and the sun, and 'When the moon parted the two' refers to the time when the moon intervened between the two. That was probably between 12:30 and 4:00 a.m. when BS broadcasts were interrupted..."

"That also happens to be the initials of Black Star, BS."

"As for the wave in the phrase 'Invitation by the Wave', if it refers to radio waves, then he might appear from the direction of the BS radio broadcast... Judging from the top of the Beido City Hotel, that's probably the rooftop."

Because Conan looked eager to try, he thought that the other party was Lin Jiashu who had already figured out the code, so he didn't hide it.

After all, as a child, it is not appropriate for the other party to speak.

Unexpectedly, after Lin Jiashu finished speaking, Conan opened his mouth wide and looked a little overwhelmed.

You call this having a clue!?

But not to mention Conan's reaction, Suzuki Shiro and the police officer from Investigation Section 2 next to him were very excited. After all, this sounded much more reliable than Mouri Kogoro's reasoning.

"it is good!!"

"We must seize the opportunity and catch that thief Kidd!"

Chapter 72: On the Cruise Ship

Yoko Okino's concert on April Fool's Day was wonderful.

Lin Jiashu watched the concert she arranged in the front row.

Perhaps because she finally saw him in the audience, Yoko Okino performed particularly hard that day, and her frequent winks were particularly touching.

But it's a big concert after all...

The company and the agent were all there, and even when she took breaks or went to the bathroom, there were people accompanying her. Yoko Okino couldn't even talk to Hayashi Yoshiki alone.

As for the appearance of Kaito Kid on the rooftop of the Haido Hotel, there was a large number of police officers hiding in the building waiting for him to appear. Although Kaito Kid knew that his code had been cracked after hiding in the police team, he still showed up because of his pride.

The expected calm and unrestrained scene did not reappear. He only had time to leave a second notice letter before leaving in embarrassment.

(Lin Jiashu.....)

(I remember that detective!)

The thief in the white cloak uttered these harsh words in his heart as he flew away.

Until a week later, on April 4th--

Yokohama Port, inside the banquet hall of a large luxury cruise ship

"As the Suzuki Group enters its 60th anniversary, I would like to express my sincere gratitude for your support and encouragement."

Shiro Suzuki, dressed in a sophisticated suit, stood at the podium and spoke solemnly, "I hope that the more than 500 guests gathered here today will temporarily forget about that thief and enjoy this elegant banquet."

The guests in the audience gave a round of applause.

Maori Kogoro had already served the champagne. He muttered, "I didn't expect that thief would dare to come?"

"After all, he does have a lot of confidence in himself."

Lin Jiashu chuckled softly.

The second notice letter left by Kaito Kid on April Fool's Day did not contain any code-related tricks. He directly stated that he would steal the Dark Night Stars at the celebration banquet for the 60th anniversary of the Suzuki Group... Therefore, in addition to asking the police for help, the Suzuki Group also specially found Kogoro Mori and Yoshiki Hayashi.

Among them, the commission fee paid to Lin Jiashu who cracked the code was quite high.

Lin Jiashu walked up to the group and first praised Xiaolan, who was wearing a red dress: "This dress suits you very well, Xiaolan."

"Thank you, Yoshiki-kun."

Xiaolan accepted the compliment generously.

Conan next to him hurriedly said: "Brother Jiashu, didn't you go on the night when Kaito Kid appeared on April Fool's Day?"

"No."

"Why? That's clearly the place you deduced his appearance, isn't it?"

"After all, he said it was an April Fool's joke..."

"You're being too leisurely."

Even Kogoro Mori was speechless.

On the podium, after Shiro Suzuki finished his speech, his wife Tomoko Suzuki appeared and said with a smile that she had left a challenge for Kaito Kid - she gave a jewelry box to each guest when they boarded the cruise ship, and the jewelry box contained imitation dark night stars.

After all the guests were wearing fakes, it was not easy to find the only authentic one in the whole venue.

"Hey, isn't the idea my mom came up with good?"

Suzuki Sonoko appeared from the corner with a smile and hugged her best friend's arm immediately.

"Well, I think it's pretty good." Xiaolan replied with a smile.

"It really does look like the real thing."

Lin Jiashu looked at the jewelry in his hand with interest.

Although they are fakes, given the Suzuki Group's handiwork, these fakes can essentially be considered valuable jewelry...and this is also a small gift for the 500 guests present.

After finishing her speech, Tomoko Suzuki walked over from the podium with a smile on her face.

"Greetings, Mr. Lin, Mr. Maori."

"Ah, hello!"

"Hello, Mrs. Suzuki."

"You two are the powerful reinforcements my master has invited. With your help, it will be easy to stop that ignorant thief."

Suzuki Tomoko said this with a bright smile, and then asked with a hint of pride, "I wonder what you two think of the challenge I issued to Kaito Kidd?"

"Using counterfeits to confuse the public is a very clever idea."

Lin Jiashu's words made Suzuki Tomoko smile even more, but before she could be happy, she heard him say, "But Mrs. Suzuki, maybe you can try to replace the dark night star on your chest with a fake one."

"Huh? Yoshiki-san means the real thing is in Aunt Tomoko's possession?"

"...How did you find out, Mr. Lin?"

Suzuki Tomoko asked with interest.

"After all, the Dark Night Star is a valuable heirloom of the Suzuki Group. It shouldn't be handed over to strangers, even temporarily... Furthermore, isn't it a decades-old piece of jewelry? Even with the best care, it's hard to maintain its original brilliance. Placing the real thing next to a fake wouldn't be hidden from Kaito Kid."

"I see."

I didn't expect that the arrangement I was proud of would have such a big loophole.

The smug look disappeared from the boy's face.

She thought for a moment, looked at Lin Jiashu's face, and suddenly asked:

"I wonder how old Mr. Lin is now?"

"Me? About 22."

"Have you considered marriage yet? Would you accept marrying into the family?"

Suzuki Tomoko's abrupt words made the people around her open their eyes wide instantly.

Even Lin Jiashu couldn't help but fall silent for a moment.

"....Sorry, I don't have that plan for now."

"Well, they are still young people after all."

Suzuki Tomoko seemed genuinely disappointed. She turned to look at her daughter's bewildered face and said, "Don't just stand there. Call your sister Ayako. Why haven't you seen her yet?"

"I know..."

Suzuki Sonoko obeyed and did as she was told.

While she was on the phone, Lin Jiashu took a sip of the champagne in his hand.

Suddenly, his brows raised slightly.

Is someone observing me?

I don’t know if it’s because he trained in the brewery’s underground training ground for a long time, or because of Gin’s influence that allowed him to always stay focused and tense... Lin Jiashu is now much more sensitive to other people’s gazes.

He was sure that the look just now was not the superficial look of those women at the party.

--There is a high probability that I am being targeted.

"What? You and Dad haven't left yet?"

Suzuki Sonoko's voice was filled with surprise. She subconsciously turned her head to look at the podium, "Who was the person who was giving the speech just now?"

However, "Suzuki Shiro" was no longer there.

73

Chapter 73: Wow, your reaction speed is so fast.

Kaito Kidd has already sneaked into the Sally Beth cruise ship.

He first used a voice changer to pretend to be a police officer to inform Shiro Suzuki that the cruise ship's departure time would be delayed by two hours, and then he disguised himself as Shiro Suzuki and boarded the cruise ship.

During the entire process, neither Suzuki Sonoko nor Suzuki Tomoko noticed anything unusual.

At this moment, he had taken off Suzuki Shiro's disguise and disguised himself as the waiter who would attract the least attention in the entire banquet hall, waiting for an opportunity.

(Oh...right here.)

Walking around the venue with a tray of champagne, Kaito Kid smirked in his heart when he saw Lin Jiashu.

He had always been holding on to the grudge that had made him so embarrassed on April Fool's Day, April 4st, and wanted to find a chance to "retaliate" against him.

Seeing that Lin Jiashu finished the champagne in his hand, the waiter disguised as Kaito Kid immediately walked forward.

"Would you like another drink?"

"OK, thanks."

Lin Jiashu placed the empty wine glass on the tray brought by the other party. When he took the wine glass handed to him by the waiter, he glanced at the other party.

Kaito Kidd then walked away.

He silently looked forward to Lin Jiashu drinking the glass of champagne - which he had just specially added a small dose of aphrodisiac.

Just imagine, the famous detective who was expected to catch this thief was disguised and stole the stars without anyone noticing. When he woke up, his face would definitely be very embarrassing...

Lin Jiashu gently shook the champagne glass in his hand, but had no intention of drinking it.

Just now he felt someone was observing him. At first he was not sure whether it was Kaito Kidd, but he still remained alert.

He quietly observed his surroundings.

At this time, Kaito Kidd was still wandering around the banquet hall. He kept paying attention to Lin Jiashu. Seeing that he was holding the glass of champagne without moving, he couldn't help but murmur in his heart.

Why don’t you drink yet?
