Rebirth from Conan
Chapter 87
Chapter 87∑(O_O;)
This is an ancient and huge castle, standing on a barren mountain top. After hundreds of years of wind and rain erosion, the walls have long been mottled, moss covers the ancient stones, and every brick and stone is full of traces of time.
Everyone looked up at the tall tower that reached into the sky, and then looked around for a while at the endless flowers, plants and trees. For a moment, they all subconsciously opened their mouths wide, feeling like Granny Liu entering the Grand View Garden.
“The area here is at least four or five thousand square meters, right?” Kogoro Mouri couldn’t help but sigh.
When will I be able to live in a house like this?
He thought to himself while glancing at Yuanzi and Xiahe who were walking beside him.
Tsk tsk tsk, they are two rich second-generations after all, and seeing a castle and a manor of this level, they don’t even show the slightest bit of surprise…
But then again, why does Officer Shiratori look so uninterested?
Could it be that he is also a hidden rich second generation?
……
As the current owner of the castle, Natsumi Kosaka, together with the butler, led Xia He and others to start a tour of the interior.
The spacious hall has gorgeous chandeliers and brightly colored carpets.
Unlike the ancient appearance on the outside, everything inside was decorated very luxuriously.
In addition, there are calligraphy and paintings, antiques, swords, armor… everything you can think of.
From the walls of the corridor and the stairs to the inside of every room, it is filled with hangings, leaving no blank space, and they all look very valuable.
“Is this what a rich person’s home looks like?”
Yi Dahang couldn’t help but sigh.
As a small policeman, I am afraid that I will never be able to earn enough money to buy a castle like this even if I work for ten lifetimes.
However, even so, in Kosaka Natsumi’s eyes, these things are far less precious than the two “eggs of memories”.
After all, it is not just the word “memories”, it is more likely to record the glory that the Romanov family once had.
……
Soon, everyone was led by her and the butler to the study in the corner of the first floor of the castle.
After admiring the old photos on the wall for a while, Conan, as always, relied on his intelligence and cracked the password of the basement entrance in Russian, which led to Xiaolan’s further suspicion.
Xia He was too lazy to pay attention to this anymore.
Anyway, when everything is over, Kuroba Kaito will be there to help Conan clean up the mess, so he naturally has nothing to worry about.
Following Ida Hang, he entered the basement.
Everyone turned on their flashlights and followed the steps all the way to the end.
Afterwards, Conan analyzed the situation without paying attention to the people around him, triggered the mechanism, and successfully allowed everyone to enter the basement in the basement – the cemetery of the Romanov royal family.
The coffin was opened and a second crimson egg of memories was found on the body of Kosaka Natsumi’s great-grandmother.
The two eggs were assembled together like Russian nesting dolls, and with the help of the refraction of light, a large number of photos of Emperor Nicholas and his family were reflected on the stone wall.
“It’s truly a masterpiece of god’s craft.” Kuroba Kaito opened his eyes wide and couldn’t help but sigh.
Seeing this, Maori Kogoro couldn’t help but say to Kosaka Natsumi: “Your great-grandfather is indeed a magician at the end of the century. This design… is really incredible.”
“Thank you. I believe my great-grandfather would be very happy if he knew what Kogoro Mori said about him.” Natsumi Kosaka replied with a smile.
at the same time.
[You completed the mission: Perfect drag show]
[Talent obtained: Bone Surprise]
[Bone Surprise: From now on, you can change the length and thickness of your bones at will. (Note: The change process is extremely painful, so friends with average pain tolerance are advised not to try it easily)
Xia He: “?”
“Bone Shrinking Skill”…
Did you really arrange it for me?
Mom no longer has to worry about others seeing through my disguise!
He was just feeling happy, but suddenly Conan pointed at “Xia He” who was standing next to the Egg of Memories with his hands in his pockets and said, “So, Kaito Kid, you’ve been acting for so long, it’s time to show your true form, right?”
After saying this, everyone turned their eyes over.
Xia He…is Kaito Kid in disguise?
Yuanzi widened his eyes in surprise, and then subconsciously took two steps back.
Kuroba Kaito wanted to make a few more excuses when he saw this, but the lights on the stone wall suddenly dimmed at this moment.
Taking advantage of the moment when the basement became pitch black, Kaito turned around and ran away.
Xia He, with his talent of [Night Vision], saw all of this.
So, having completed his mission, he immediately shouted “Don’t run!” and then followed Kaito and ran towards the exit of the basement.
…Kaito Kuroba quickly ran to the top floor of the castle.
“I thought the egg would be inlaid with gems, but it turned out to be just glass…”
“But it’s worth the trip to see such a stunning design.”
He muttered to himself.
He then walked to the window and wanted to use a paraglider to leave the place, but at this moment, a football shot out from behind him.
“Don’t run, Kidd!”
Following a warning from a child’s voice, Kaito reacted extremely quickly and dodged the attack.
Wow——!
The football shattered the glass in front, and the window frame fell down with it.
“So considerate?”
You even planned an escape route for me?
Still holding onto Natsuka’s face, Kaito blinked, “But I have a question, little detective, how did you find me?”
“Hehe, at noon today on the cruise ship, you ate carrots. You know, Xia Heke never eats that stuff. Even if it’s mixed fried rice, as long as there are carrots mixed in it, he will pick them out one by one without getting tired of it.” Conan pushed his glasses, and he looked so confident, as if he was narrating a very awesome reasoning.
“It’s been so many years, that guy is still picky about food…” Recalling the time when he and Xia He practiced magic with their father when they were young, Kaito couldn’t help but smile.
It seems that I haven’t paid enough attention to the details.
“Well, this show ends here.”
The smoke bomb exploded on the ground.
Kaito changed back into a white suit, first made a farewell gesture, then unfolded the glider on his back and jumped out towards the “escape passage” created for him by Conan.
……
the other side.
Xia He stood in the high tower on the west side of the castle and looked at the watch on his wrist.
Nine-thirty.
If I go back now, I can probably get home around 1 a.m. and bring some midnight snacks with me, then go to Dr. Agasa’s laboratory to reward Ai and Chengshi.
he thought to himself.
But at this time…
“Caught you!”
Zhu Fujingguang rushed up from downstairs with a flashlight.
Xia He: “?”
Discovered?
He thought subconsciously.
No…that’s not right. I have already completed my mission. If I were discovered, how could I possibly obtain the talent of [Bone Amazement]?
“Stop pretending, I have already seen through your identity, Kaito Kidd!” Zhu Fujingguang continued to shout.
“Kaitou Kidd?”
Xia He: “.”
It turns out that he mistook me for Kaito.
“Oh? How did you recognize me?”
“Hehe, Shiratori is not as easy-going as you. He loves to put on airs, especially in front of acquaintances. And he is also very arrogant. If he really catches Shi Kaobing, he will not be as humble and low-key as you…” Zhu Fu Jingguang said confidently.
Is Shiratori Jinzaburo this kind of person?
Xia He blinked, then took advantage of the situation and unfolded the hang glider in his weight-bearing jacket.
“Well, that’s the end of the show!”
After saying that, he was about to jump off the tower.
But the moment he jumped, Zhu Fu Jingguang flew over without hesitation and grabbed his waist.
“Don’t even think about escaping from my grasp!”
Xia He: ∑(O_O;)
