Conan: I don't do anything? If I really do it, you won't be happy.

Chapter 40 The Chief of the Suzuki Museum
"Scratches? Could it be..." An idea came to Conan's mind, so he ran back to Sonoko, pulled the corner of Sonoko's clothes, and said:

"That's so strange, Sonoko-sister, why are there two scratches here?"

Conan immediately acted like a child, trying to get Sonoko to notice the scratch, but Sonoko didn't care. She lifted Terusuke up with both hands and said nonchalantly, "What's so strange about it? It must have been left there accidentally by someone before!"

Huijie, who was being held up by Sonoko at the fence, accidentally saw the people below him, who were like ants. He suddenly felt dizzy and said hurriedly:

"Wait, this might be a clue left by Kaito Kid. Sister Sonoko, haven't you always wanted to meet Kaito Kid?"

"If we can crack his tricks, he'll definitely notice that he has a talented young lady like you among his fans!"

Hearing what Huisuke said, Conan looked at him in surprise, as if he didn't expect Huisuke to get involved, and then echoed:

"Yes, yes, maybe we can catch him. Sister Sonoko, don't you want to see the true face of Kaito Kidd?"

Hearing what the two said, Sonoko put Huisuke on the ground, tapped her chin with her finger, nodded thoughtfully, and then patted the two on the shoulders and said:

"You have a point. In that case, you will serve as the right-hand men of my great detective, Miss Sonoko."

At this moment, Ayumi and the others also appeared and shouted to Sonoko: "And us, the Junior Detective Team!"

Standing on the ground again, Huisuke breathed a sigh of relief, then stuck his head out to look at the ground and found that there was nothing wrong with him.

Ai, who was standing by, looked at Huijie who seemed to be acting strangely and asked curiously, "What's wrong with you?"

"Nothing," Huisuke shook his head, then frowned and said, "It just suddenly felt like I might have inherited a bit of my dad's fear of heights."

Looking at Huisuke, Xiao Ai whispered to him, "This could be an instinctive reaction when you're at a high altitude with your feet off the ground, right?"

"I'll test it for you after we get back!"

Just as Huisuke and Ai were talking, the person Sonoko sent to investigate another building gave an answer.

Sure enough, the same traces were found there.

Listening to this information, Conan constructed a model of the surrounding area in his mind and began to simulate Kidd's aerial walking technique yesterday.

Sonoko, who was standing by, racked her brains but couldn't figure out how Kidd managed to walk in the air.

While thinking, he looked up and saw Huisuke whispering to Xiao Ai. He couldn't help but reveal an expression as if he had eaten a lemon. Then he slapped Huisuke on the shoulder and said:

"Why aren't my right-hand men helping me figure out how to win Kidd-sama's heart?"

Looking at the ferocious Sonoko in front of him, Huisuke quickly said, "Isn't this Conan thinking?"

Before Sonoko could say anything, Terusuke continued, "And if you continue to use the same magic trick, the chances of being exposed will greatly increase."

"I think Kidd just wants us to think he's going to use the same tactics he used yesterday and then steal from the museum himself."

"So I think Sister Sonoko, you should deploy more people on the ground to check everyone entering and leaving the museum. After all, there are already enough guards in the sky."

Hearing what Terusuke said, Sonoko rubbed her chin, nodded, and said, "What you said seems to make some sense!" Hearing what Sonoko said, Terusuke smiled inwardly. How could it not make sense? This is the real method that Kaito Kidd used to steal the gems!
"In that case, why don't you take charge of this task? After all, Mr. Kidd won't hurt anyone, and you're still a child, so you can't be disguised."

As Yuanzi spoke, she felt more and more that this matter was very feasible.

He immediately prepared to call Suzuki Jirokichi and explain the plan to him.

When Huijie saw Sonoko's actions, he held her hand and said, "It would be more appropriate to arrange for reliable professionals to handle this kind of thing!"

But Sonoko said nonchalantly, "It's okay. Uncle Jirokichi has cleared out all the collections in the museum in order to challenge Kaito Kid. Don't worry about breaking anything."

"Besides, you are Xiaolan's brother, and even if you round it off, you are still my brother. It doesn't matter if you accidentally break a few collections."

Then Sonoko said with confidence, as if a flame was burning in her eyes: "Kusuke, this is a plan we came up with together. Even if you don't believe in yourself, you have to believe in me who believes in you!"

Listening to Sonoko's words, Terusuke was speechless. What a great plan they came up with together!

And is that what you should say?

This is obviously copied from a cartoon!
Feeling Terusuke's gaze, Sonoko smiled awkwardly and said, "The atmosphere has already arrived. Isn't this statement inappropriate?"

Then, under Terusuke's silent gaze, Sonoko coughed twice, took out her phone and called Suzuki Jirokichi.

After a while, the call was finally connected, and Suzuki Jirokichi asked, "Oh, Sonoko, what's going on?"

When Sonoko heard Suzuki Jirokichi answer the phone, she immediately said, "Uncle Jirokichi, I've discussed with Xiaolan's brother and we think Kidd is very likely to steal the treasure from the ground today, so we plan to have him go to the museum to watch over the others. What do you think?"

At this moment, Kidd, who had just knocked Suzuki Jirokichi unconscious and had to answer the phone for him, was stunned for a moment when he heard what Sonoko said. Then he smiled and asked, "Is Xiaolan's brother the kid with glasses?"

"No, that little brat Conan is just staying at her house temporarily. I'm talking about Ran's biological brother, Mori Terusuke!"

Since there is another expert, is this the famous detective Kogoro Mouri?

He actually raised two smart children in a row. I never realized he was so capable before.

But Kaito Kidd will not be afraid of anyone's challenge, let alone this person is just a child?

So he replied to Sonoko: "Oh? Sure, what about that kid named Conan? Isn't he coming over?"

"Him," Sonoko said as she walked to Conan and said something to him, then replied, "He seems to be still trying to figure out how Kidd walked in the air yesterday."

Kidd smiled, then said with a double meaning: "Is that so? Then let me see his ability."

"I will have the museum staff follow the orders of that Maori Terusuke."

After receiving confirmation from the other end of the phone, Sonoko happily said to Terusuke, "Okay, now you are the temporary head of the Suzuki Museum. What do you think?"
