Chapter 893: Pick the softest persimmon
Not far away, Xiaolan and Sonoko were huddled in front of a display case, chatting away over Ryoma's belongings. Sonoko was wearing a cool, light-slip dress, looking energetic; Xiaolan was wearing a light yellow dress, looking youthful and charming.
"Wow! Is this the pocket watch Ryoma used?" Sonoko excitedly pointed at the display case. "It looks so ordinary."
"After all, it's an item from that era."
Xiaolan explained with a smile, "Although it looks ordinary on the outside, the historical value behind it is immeasurable."
On the other side, Hattori Heiji and Conan, a pair of good friends, were queuing up to enter with great difficulty.
Since they were not invited guests, they could only queue up obediently to buy tickets. The summer sun shone mercilessly on them, and they were sweating profusely in a short while.
"Hey, Kudo, look over there." Hattori Heiji nudged Conan with his elbow, "Isn't that Hanyu Kusunoki?"
Conan followed his gaze and saw Hanyu Kusunoki holding Ai's hand and strolling around the exhibition leisurely. The corners of his mouth twitched: "Why is that guy everywhere..."
"Forget it, let's ignore him for now." Hattori Heiji lowered his voice, "Today our target is Kaito Kidd."
Conan nodded, a glimmer of fighting spirit in his eyes.
Ever since they were badly beaten down by Hanyu Kusunoki, they decided to pick on the "soft persimmon" first - Kaito Kidd is obviously the soft persimmon.
Poor Kidd doesn't know that he has become the "leveling target" of the two famous detectives.
...
After wandering around the exhibition hall for a while, Hanyu Kusunoki, who knew that Toko wouldn't be taking any action today and didn't see any fun, turned to Xiaolan and Sonoko, who were listening attentively to the explanation, and said, "I'm going to take Ai-chan to buy some food. You guys go shopping first."
"Okay~" Yuanzi waved her hand, "Remember to bring me a cup of milk tea!"
Xiaolan gently reminded: "Don't let Xiaoai eat too many cold foods."
After leaving the exhibition hall and walking into the rest area, Hanyu Kusunoki saw two familiar figures - Hattori Heiji and Conan still queuing up to wait for admission.
It was summer at the time, and the sunlight shone through the glass roof onto the people in line. Many people were sweating from the heat, and they used the brochures in their hands as fans to fan themselves constantly.
"Hey, aren't these two famous detectives?" Hanyu Kusunoki greeted them with a smile. "Why didn't you receive the invitation?"
If there is no fun, just use these two good friends to have some fun.
Hattori Heiji's face darkened: "What do you care?"
Conan pushed his glasses and muttered softly: "Damn capitalism..."
"How pitiful~" Hanyu Kusunoki shook her head in mock sympathy. "Do you want me to help you go through the VIP channel?"
"No need!" They both refused in unison.
They would rather queue up in the scorching sun than accept charity from this annoying guy!
"Okay then~" Hanyu Kusunoki shrugged and continued walking forward with Ai in his hand. "What flavor of ice cream would you like, Ai-chan?"
"Vanilla." Xiao Ai said lightly, and before leaving, she did not forget to give the two detectives a sympathetic look.
If you have no money, you have no money. What’s the point of talking about capitalism?
They didn't spend any money to come here?
Conan: "..."
Hattori Heiji: "......"
"Kudo, are we being looked down upon by the black-hearted woman?"
"Shut up!"
The two detectives continued to queue up depressedly, secretly vowing in their hearts that they must catch Kaito Kid at this exhibition and save face.
You have to pick on the weak. Since you can't defeat Hanyu Kusunoki for the time being, let's start with Kaito Kidd!
Kaito, who was somewhere in the city meticulously preparing for tomorrow's action, suddenly sneezed without warning. "Strange, who's talking about me?"
He rubbed his nose, feeling a little puzzled, but quickly immersed himself in preparing his plan.
..........
rest area.
Just after Hanyu Kusunoki bought ice cream for Ai, he met Nakamori Ginzo who was directing the police officers to set up a cordon.
This old police officer who has fought with Kidd for decades is particularly energetic today, with his beard standing up high.
"Officer Nakamori."
Hanyu Kusunoki walked up to him holding Ai's hand and greeted him politely.
"Ah! It's Hanyu-san!" Nakamori Ginzo's eyes lit up and he patted Hanyu Kusunoki's shoulder enthusiastically. "I didn't expect you to be here too."
He had a very good impression of this young man who had once destroyed Kaito Kidd's plan, and he often praised him in front of his wife and daughter.
If it weren't for the fact that Hanyu Kusunoki already had a girlfriend, he would have wanted to introduce Aoko to her - such an outstanding young person is rare!
"Officer Nakamori is the head of security for this exhibition?"
Hanyu Kusunoki looked at the busy police officers and asked casually.
"Yes, leave the security of this exhibition to me!" Nakamori Ginzo patted his chest confidently and promised, "I will definitely not let Kaito Kidd succeed!"
After all, he has been fighting with Kaito Kidd for decades. Although he was fooled every time, he is indeed experienced.
Hanyu Kusunoki smiled and nodded: "I believe in Officer Nakamori's ability."
Xiao Ai was eating ice cream silently, watching the two people talking, and a hint of understanding flashed in her eyes.
She found someone's attitude a little too polite.
Abnormal, very abnormal...
Hanyu Nan didn't know what the little loli was thinking.
Otherwise, he would definitely say that the reason he was so polite to Nakamori Ginzo was definitely not because he was Aoko's father, but simply because he respected this police officer who was relentless in hunting down the Phantom Thief.
As a good citizen of Japan, it's normal to show respect to a competent police officer, right?
"correct!"
At this moment, Nakamori Ginzo recalled the time when Hanyu Kusunoki sabotaged Kaito Kid's egg of memories. Something in his heart moved, and he took the initiative to invite, "Hanyu-san, could you please help us catch that wicked thief this time?"
"no!"
Before Hanyu Kusunoki could answer, a voice came over.
Suzuki Jirokichi came from behind with an excited look on his face, "Nakamori, let me do it this time! I want to catch that thief myself!"
Upon hearing this, Nakamori Ginzo was unhappy.
What do you mean you want to catch the thief yourself? You're talking as if he can't do it!
Men are most afraid of saying no.
The two Kidd's nems (self-proclaimed) started arguing, and both expressed their desire to catch the Phantom Thief on their own.
Xiao Ai tugged at the corner of Hanyu Nan's clothes and whispered, "Where do they get their confidence from?"
Hanyu Kusunoki couldn't help laughing: "You don't understand men's romance~"
"Tsk." The little girl curled her lips in disdain. "Childish."
She scooped another spoonful of ice cream into her mouth and ignored it.
