I will traverse countless worlds and become a god entirely on my own!

"This is a chance to observe Lord Kid up close, and I can even see him fight with the other master thieves. Of course I have to come in and watch!" Sonoko waved her hand, and seeing that Ran still looked worried, she continued to explain, "Don't worry, I've already spoken to someone about this. The officer in charge of this matter won't object!"

This is the power of money the Suzuki family has!

Conan stared blankly, thinking to himself, "This corrupt capitalism... sure enough, if you have money, you can put in a good word with the higher-ups and get things done right away."

However, thanks to Sonoko, I was able to come in as well.

As a detective bursting with a sense of justice, Conan naturally wants to capture all three master thieves.

"Inspector Megure, it's been a long time!"

Kogoro Mouri waved and greeted Inspector Megure with an overly familiar air as he walked over to him.

"What are you here for?"

Inspector Megure stared warily at Kogoro Mouri. Lately, he had noticed that Kogoro was acting strangely; wherever there was a case, Kogoro was there too, and a bad feeling crept into his heart.

"Of course I'll help you catch the big thief! Don't worry! With me, the famous detective Kogoro Mouri, on the job, I definitely won't let them steal the jewel!"

As he spoke, Kogoro Mouri burst into laughter, sticking his tongue out.

Actually, he wanted to use this incident to boost his reputation. Recently, more and more people have been asking him for cases. However, he still wanted to earn more money. He really liked the feeling of having cases to take on. Fortunately, that bratty high school detective hasn't been showing up much lately.

This incident naturally caught the attention of Kogoro Mouri.

The TV station is here. If I can protect the Queen's Tears in this operation and also capture the three major thief gangs, I will definitely become famous!

Won't the number of cases that need to be solved and investigated increase by the time things get better, and won't the fees just keep rising?

"Tell me, are you Phantom Thief Kid in disguise?!"

Nakamori Ginzo went straight up and grabbed Kogoro Mouri's face, starting to pinch it.

Having fought Kidd many times, he was well aware that Kidd's disguise skills were very strong.

"Bastard, let me go!!"

Just moments ago, Kogoro Mouri was smugly fantasizing when he suddenly felt a sting on his face. When he came to his senses, Ginzo Nakamori's hands were already tearing at his face.

"No disguise."

Nakamori Ginzo breathed a sigh of relief, then turned his attention to Ran, Sonoko, and the others.

"Miwako, go and verify this for Ran and Sonoko. As for Conan, Takagi, you're in charge!"

"Yes!"

Inspector Megure had been told that Sonoko would come, but he didn't expect her to bring Ran and her group.

But since we're here, let's check and make sure it's not Kidd.

"This is Utaha, Eriri!"

After school.

After declining today's club activities, Eriri and Kasumigaoka Utaha rushed to the school.

Bai Ye and Kato Megumi were waiting for the two of them at the school gate. The moment Kasumigaoka Utaha saw Bai Ye, her eyes lit up and she quickened her pace.

"Is Bai Ye-kun not going to go on a date with a little girl outside of school this time?"

Kasumigaoka Utaha crossed her arms, her gaze towards Byakuya somewhat displeased.

"Hey, I was just doing a job!"

Even a colleague at a convenience store can be described as a date.

Although he knew that Xia Laofei was saying this on purpose, he was still somewhat unable to resist her thoughts.

"Hmph, it's been a long time since you've worked with us!"

Eriri gritted her teeth and glared angrily at Byakuya.

Some time ago, they could sense that Bai Ye seemed to be distancing himself from them.

This made Eriri a little flustered.

Friends you finally managed to make are now distancing themselves from you for no apparent reason.

She didn't want to lose the friends she had finally managed to have.

"Bai Ye-kun, are you in love?"

Kasumigaoka Utaha's eyes held a hint of scrutiny; she was very unhappy with this inexplicable feeling of being distanced.

At the same time, she didn't want Bai Ye to be in a relationship, or at least not with her.

When she was at her lowest point, it was Bai Ye who comforted her and helped her revise her manuscript. She didn't want such a gentle boy to be taken away by another girl.

But this guy has one bad point: he seems to be a little too gentle. He treats every girl like that and is able to offer help and care to them when appropriate.

She sighed inwardly, wishing it were only for herself.

"No, I was just busy with some things before. I'm planning to set up a firm to help solve some problems, and I probably won't be working at the convenience store anymore."

Before, Bai Ye had no choice but to work, but now she doesn't want to continue working.

"Eh? Do you have time, Byakuya-kun?"

Kato Megumi looked at Bai Ye with curiosity, as she hadn't heard Bai Ye mention this matter earlier.

Besides, does he even have the time?

"Help with anything? So, would you be interested in helping a girl grow into a woman, Byakuya-kun?"

"Kasumigaoka Utaha!!!! What on earth are you saying, woman?!"

Eriri stared at her with wide eyes and disbelief. Then she looked around and breathed a sigh of relief when she realized that no one was paying attention.

Although she had long been familiar with Kasumigaoka Utaha's bold and provocative words, she was still somewhat overwhelmed, even though the intended recipient was not herself.

"Hmph, would an artist like you be afraid to say something like that?"

Kasumigaoka Utaha curled her lip in disdain.

Do you think Eriri doesn't know what her profession is?

However, Kasumigaoka Utaha never took Eriri seriously. Even though she knew that Eriri kept saying that Byakuya was her friend, Kasumigaoka Utaha could see through Eriri's little schemes.

But she wasn't afraid of Eriri either; that tsundere twin-tailed girl was no match for her.

"So, what's your answer, Baiye-kun?"

Kasumigaoka Utaha ignored Eriri and turned to look at Byakuya.

If you agree, then wear those stockings with the letters on them and go out with him.

Are you going to give it away for free?

Bai Ye scratched his forehead, looking somewhat troubled.

I can't let Kasumigaoka Utaha destroy the ecosystem of the fishpond that I've worked so hard to build.

The reason I stayed away from them in the first place was mainly because I was afraid of being hacked to pieces. If it were a regular slice-of-life manga, I wouldn't be afraid at all, but with Conan around, I might get hacked to pieces at any moment.

He was a bit greedy. He liked Kasumigaoka Utaha, and he also liked Eriri's twin tails. Twin tails that could be used as a steering wheel, if he could grab them, it would be like grabbing the future, right?

"Unfortunately, some people don't want it!"

Kasumigaoka Utaha gave Byakuya a resentful look. This guy... she had already hinted so obviously, but he still didn't want her. What could she do?

It seems I need to be more proactive. Maybe I can take him to the couples' hot springs together, and then things will naturally fall into place.

"Shall we go to the art museum first?"

Kato Megumi raised her hand, glanced at the time on her watch, and calmly interrupted their conversation.

Pointing to the time on her watch, Kato Megumi indicated that if they didn't hurry, it would be too late.

That area is probably already packed with people.

"That's right, that's right, let's go to the art museum first!!!"

Eriri was frustrated because she didn't know how to attack and couldn't control the rhythm, and she didn't want to watch Kasumigaoka Utaha conquer Byakuya like that.

But Kato Megumi's interruption instantly gave Eriri a reason.

Well done, Xiao Hui! You truly are my best teammate!

Eriri mentally waved her arm and silently gave Kato Megumi a thumbs up.

"hehe."

Kasumigaoka Utaha glared at Eriri with displeasure. This woman was really annoying. She would definitely find an opportunity when Eriri wasn't around.

"Hey, did I interrupt your good time, Bai Ye?"

"Xiao Hui is really scary now."

"Have it?"

Kato Megumi tilted her head, looking at him with an innocent expression.

But how could Byakuya, who knows Kato Megumi, not know?

Kato Megumi understands how to change her attitude, from "Baiye-kun" to "Baiye-san".

Shrugging, Bai Ye didn't explain further, because the agreed-upon destination was indeed the art museum, and in order to secure a good spot, they opted to take a taxi there.

The Wugang Art Museum was packed with people.

"We can't find a good spot. Come to think of it, are all these people just here to watch?"

"Some people even came with binoculars!"

Even thieves have fans now!

Speaking of which, Kidd does have quite a few fans.

"I'm going in."

"what?"

Eriri looked at Byakuya with some confusion. How were they going to get in with so many people?

But the next second, when they saw Bai Ye simply give them a light tug, the people around them made way for them to move in.

After walking along, the four of them soon arrived at a position at the very front, but it was still about 100 meters away from the Wugang Art Museum.
