Conan: Science Cartoonist Kudo Yuji

Chapter 886 Prelude to Action

The Road of the God of Wind is a new prop arranged by Jirokichi Suzuki and Officer Nakamori in this Kid's attack and defense. After combining the movement characteristics of Kaito Kid in the Osaka Battle, the two also thought of obstacles like the Kudo brothers.

"The reason why Kidd can move freely is because the venue we arranged before is too spacious, or it is easier for him to display his skills."

Suzuki Jirokichi walked over from the crown and said, "So although we chose the top floor of the 60th floor to set up the exhibition hall this time, the entire process will be transmitted to the screen of the building through external cameras."

The screen is set up at the exit of Wind God Road, right opposite the square hole on the wall inside, so you can directly see the jeweled crown placed inside.

As for why he didn't install the camera in the house, judging from what Jiro Suzuki said, he didn't want high technology to become the key point in the confrontation between him and Kidd.

"It should be that I caught Kidd's flaw at a glance. Technology can play a driving role, but if it is the decisive point, it is too boring."

Yuji touched the black wig on his chest, and after Suzuki Jirokichi walked towards Suzuki Sonoko, he and Conan walked around the small hall.

"Apart from the crown, there really is no other technique. This defensive battle was unexpectedly easy."

After knocking on the walls everywhere and hearing solid echoes, Conan set his sights on the crown and was about to go and take a look but was stopped.

"I advise you not to move around, little brother."

Knowing that the woman in glasses and light green suit jacket was blocking Conan, she waved her gloved hand and introduced everyone who had just come in.

"In addition to the Wind God Road, there is another device in this room, which is connected to the Wind God Road. It is a weighing device under the jewel crown."

The woman casually touched the jeweled crown, and the alarm sounded throughout the building. Through the camera, the audience and fans outside the building could see clearly that the entrance to the Wind God Road was completely closed in an instant, turning the room where the treasure was placed into a completely secret room.

"So your method has changed directly from preventing Kidd from stealing to preventing him from escaping after stealing, right?"

Youer slammed his palm and said, "Although it's a bit cowardly, it's indeed a good idea."

"Right. We have to thank Officer Nakamori for that. It was said that the boy from his neighbor's house mentioned this method when he was helping him catch mice a few days ago."

In the silence of the Kudo brothers, Suzuki Jirokichi praised the boy who assisted and said that this boy would definitely become an excellent Kid Hunter in the future.

"But can we be sure that this route is functioning properly? If Kidd cuts off the power to the entire building, wouldn't it be a waste of effort if the mechanism doesn't work?"

After all, that was Kidd, a terrorist who used bombs openly. The woman put one hand on her waist, shook her head and said with a smile: "The circuit system of the Wind God Road is independent. Unless Kidd blows up this room, there is no way he can make this mechanism ineffective."

Although this was not auspicious, the Kudo brothers did not continue asking and turned their attention to the other two strange men and the old lady who had just arrived in the room through the Wind God Road.

"We are the appraisers of the jewel crown. We were invited by Mr. Jiro Suzuki to confirm the authenticity of the jewel crown." The man with a mushroom head and a mustache looked a little funny, and his strange accent made people laugh.

"You're too late, twenty minutes late from the time we requested. Although we told you that you can eat more and not rush, you're really taking your time."

Officer Nakamori glanced at his watch. "Did something happen?"

"Yes..." The old lady was about to defend herself, but was immediately stopped by Officer Nakamori who was looking at the two of them.

"Whatever happens, let's first authenticate the jeweled crown, to prevent Kidd from swapping the jewels before they are placed in this room and then showing up and claiming that he stole them."

Officer Nakamori walked to the entrance of the passage and shouted to the police officers outside: "Have these two people been searched?"

"It's already been checked!"

The immediate answer from the door made the officer relax a little.

"Then it starts with me."

The old lady took out a miniature pair of glasses from her pocket and placed them in front of the gem. She squinted her eyes and adjusted the angle to observe it carefully. Since she couldn't pick it up, she quickly finished the identification.

“I think it’s true, no problem.”

"I just turned the glasses around to confirm it. Ma'am, are you really a professional gemologist?"

The mushroom-head flicked his hair, and to everyone's surprise, he took out a piece of transparent glass and several bottles of sealed reagents from the toolbox.

"Let me take a look."
