Yukiko looked at Chen Feng with curiosity.

"nothing."

Chen Feng smiled and spoke.

He then raised his hand to glance at his watch: "It's almost time. The performance is about to begin. Are you ready, madam?"

"What should we prepare?"

Yukiko looked puzzled.

But Chen Feng didn't give her any explanation, he just silently watched the second hand on his watch keep moving.

Conan noticed this too, and when he looked down, sure enough, it was already past 3:59, and the time was almost up!

"Never mind all that!"

Conan gritted his teeth, not caring whether he would alert Chen Feng, and quickly ran to Chen Feng's side. He pressed the switch on his waist, and the next second, a soccer ball was ejected from the belt.

"Now!"

Conan thought to himself.

He adjusted the power-enhancing shoes to maximum, aimed at Chen Feng's back, and fiercely shot the football.

"Kidd!"

Bearing the shame of his previous defeat, Conan is determined to show Chen Feng his true power this time.

The soccer ball flew out, but Chen Feng didn't even turn his head. Instead, he suddenly pulled out a playing card gun from his left hand, which had been in his pocket, raised it, and then decisively pulled the trigger.

"call out--"

The playing cards flew towards the soccer ball with a whooshing sound, and the two collided in mid-air the next second.

laugh--

A crisp sound rang out as the playing card sliced ​​the soccer ball in half with almost no resistance, leaving a smooth cut as if it had been cut by a sharp knife.

"How could this be!"

Conan was startled to see the soccer ball cut in half and veering off course.

Chen Feng turned his head at this moment and smiled slightly at Conan: "Time's up, Mr. Detective..."

The second after Chen Feng finished speaking, the second and minute hands coincided on the number "12".

next second.

click!

All the lights in the venue went out.

At the same time, all the windows on the wall were opened, and countless white doves poured in through the windows accompanied by the "whooshing" sound of the wind.

"What's going on? What happened?"

"Where did all these birds come from? The window! Who opened the window?!"

"Quickly! Start the backup power! Everyone stay still! Be alert for your surroundings!"

Officer Nakamori's voice echoed throughout the entire venue.

Jirokichi Suzuki was initially observing his surroundings with a wary expression, but more and more pigeons gathered around him, constantly swooping over him with their wings and beaks.

Frustrated, all he could do was wave his arms and try to shoo away the flock of white pigeons in front of him.

Just then, a figure seemed to brush past him and quickly disappeared into the flock of pigeons.

Conan was in a similar situation. As if receiving a command, the flock of white pigeons surrounded him in large numbers, making it difficult for them to even open their eyes, let alone catch Chen Feng.

Compared to them, Yukiko's situation is much better.

The flock of white doves seemed to be under control, quietly circling around her on both sides, like a knightly order guarding a princess, leaving a path for Yukiko to reach the window.

"This is……"

Yukiko wanted to ask Chen Feng what he meant, but she couldn't find him anywhere in the room.

His gaze swept over the white doves on both sides, and after a moment's hesitation, he slowly walked along the "dove path" toward the window.

The evening wind is always a bit chilly, but thankfully it's not strong. It feels slightly cold on the skin, but it's not a big deal.

Standing at the window, Yukiko looked out at the dark world outside the building, her eyes filled with even greater confusion.

But in the next second.

Whoosh! Bang bang bang—

Suddenly, streaks of fireworks rose from the horizon, and the brilliant flames of the painting burst forth from the night sky.

Meanwhile, the buildings across the street, which had been dark, lit up with their lights.

From top to bottom, it forms a special "rose" composed of lights.

"This……"

Yukiko covered her mouth, looking surprised.

Just then, a warm breeze came from beside my ear, and a gentle voice rang out at the same time:

"Happy birthday, madam. I must be the first person to wish you a happy birthday."

……

Chapter 234 The Gem Necklace Left Behind

Feeling the warmth behind her, Yukiko surprisingly did not struggle.

She lowered her eyebrows slightly, a hint of surprise flashing in her eyes.

It seems so. Today is November 26th, my birthday.

Yukiko was momentarily dazed.

If this were more than ten years ago, before she retired from the entertainment industry.

Every year on her birthday, as soon as midnight strikes, thousands of people send her their blessings, with directors and friends in the industry sending her a constant stream of text messages.

In the blink of an eye, she has been out of the entertainment industry for more than a decade, and in recent years she has been staying in the United States. Her contact with her friends has gradually faded, and the only people she can talk to on a regular basis are her old friend Eri Kisaki and the Kudo father and son.

Without anyone reminding her, she even forgot that it was her birthday.

What she didn't expect was that the first person to send her her blessings was a thief...

Yukiko glanced at Chen Feng behind her and said softly, "Thank you."

Chen Feng smiled and nodded, but did not reply.

Just then, the backup lights in the exhibition hall were turned on, and the previously dim interior was once again illuminated.

With the help of the lights, Officer Nakamori and his team quickly made their way through the flock of pigeons and reached Chen Feng.

The officers from the Metropolitan Police Department all had a few white feathers stuck to their bodies, making them look rather disheveled.

In particular, Officer Nakamori ripped the feather off his head, his face still showing some anger.

"Phantom Thief Kid! You're surrounded! Hands up and surrender!"

Conan, Kogoro Mouri, and Jirokichi Suzuki also arrived late, but compared to the well-trained police officers, they looked more disheveled.

Upon seeing Kid standing by the window, Kogoro Mouri immediately spoke:

"Surrender, Kid! I, the great detective Kogoro Mouri, will not let you escape!"

Although Conan didn't speak, his finger remained on the button on his belt, seemingly looking for an opportunity to give Chen Feng another shot.

Once everyone had arrived, Chen Feng slowly turned around to face the crowd.

The faint smile on her face was still there, which was extremely irritating.

"It is a great honor to meet you all under the silvery moonlight."

Chen Feng paused, then turned his gaze to Suzuki Jirokichi.

Jirokichi Suzuki met Chen Feng's gaze without flinching.

Chen Feng spoke again:

"Mr. Suzuki, thank you very much for preparing this grand event. However, I must admit that I underestimated you. I thought that when the surveillance footage was shown earlier, the direction you subconsciously looked in was the actual location of the 'Rose Kiss,' but..."

At this point, Chen Feng smiled and reached into his pocket, taking out a purple gemstone necklace.

Upon seeing the necklace, Jirokichi Suzuki's expression changed, and he instinctively reached into his inner pocket, only to find it empty, as expected.

Chen Feng's voice rang out again:

"It wasn't until just now that I suddenly realized that none of the 16 display cases contained the real item, and the real 'Rose Kiss' necklace had actually been hidden on you all along, right?"

Everyone present was quite surprised to hear Chen Feng's words.

Even Conan glanced at Suzuki Jirokichi in surprise. He never expected that this seemingly honest old man, Suzuki Jirokichi, would have such a cunning mind.

Inspector Nakamori quickly withdrew his surprised gaze and looked back at Kid: "Kid! Aren't you going to surrender? Then we won't be polite!"

As he spoke, Officer Nakamori and his men approached with serious expressions.

Chen Feng remained indifferent, slowly backing away.

"Ladies and gentlemen, that concludes tonight's performance. However, out of consideration for a certain lady, I will not be taking the jewels with me today. Farewell."

As he spoke, Chen Feng glanced at Yukiko beside him, then suddenly leaped backward out of the building.

At the same time, the hang glider behind him opened, carrying Chen Feng away into the distance.

As Chen Feng appeared, the fans who had been waiting on the street outside instantly erupted in excitement.

The cheering signs and light sticks in their hands were waved continuously, and shouts of "Kidd!" and similar chants rose and fell, lingering for a long time.

Only after Chen Feng left did Officer Nakamori step forward and pick up the "Rose Kiss" that Chen Feng had left behind.

"Is this the real Rose Kiss Necklace?"

Officer Nakamori examined the amethyst necklace in his hand with curiosity, but couldn't see any difference between it and the fakes at the scene.
