Thief Game: Starting with Obtaining the Kidd Card

Sato Miwako waved to the group, then turned and left.

Mingmei waved goodbye to her, and only after watching her leave the coffee shop did she look at Chen Feng with a puzzled expression:

"What brings Officer Sato here?"

Chen Feng glanced at the envelope on the front desk, a smile playing on his lips:

"They've come to deliver the award for 'Good Citizen'..."

"good……"

Akemi's expression was a little strange, her lips twitched, but she didn't say anything more.

……

Chapter 269 Kidd sent another notice?

Chen Feng had a very leisurely time over the next few days.

It's worth mentioning, however, that in just three days, the business license for the detective agency that Chen Feng had submitted was issued, and it was personally delivered to him by Officer Nakamori, clearly demonstrating his goodwill.

At noon, inside a coffee shop.

After seeing off Inspector Nakamori, Chen Feng handed the detective agency's business license to Akemi, who was standing next to him.

"Mingmei, please put this away for me. I'll need it later."

"Um... okay."

Mingmei reached out and took it, her eyes scanning the license before she was immediately startled.

"A detective agency? You want to start a detective agency?"

"Hmm... I've had that idea, but not for now. I'll think about it later," Chen Feng replied casually.

Hearing this, Ai, who was sitting to the side reading a book, couldn't help but roll her eyes.

A phantom thief becoming a detective, that's really...

Ai shook her head inwardly.

Suddenly, the door to the café was pushed open, and a mechanical cat at the entrance greeted customers with a "Welcome!"

Along with that came several childish voices: "Wow? Is this the detective brother's coffee shop? It looks so cool!"

"This table looks really nice, it has a kind of primeval forest feel to it."

"That's true."

Ayumi and the other children walked in first, followed closely by Conan, Ran, and Sonoko.

Hearing the three children chattering away, Sonoko frowned slightly and immediately put her hands on her hips and said:

"You kids, sit down right now! Don't run around!"

Sonoko's unquestionable voice reached their ears, and the children instantly stopped laughing and obediently went to their seats.

"That's more like it."

Seeing that the kids were behaving themselves, Sonoko nodded in satisfaction and turned to Chen Feng, saying, "Chen, give each of these kids a glass of milk, and I'll have a mocha."

"Okay." Chen Feng nodded, then looked in Xiao Lan's direction: "Xiao Lan, what about you? Xiao Lan?"

"Um... ah?"

It took two calls to bring Xiaolan back to her senses, who was slightly lost in thought.

"Um, I'd like a mocha too," Xiaolan said with a smile.

"Okay, just a moment."

Chen Feng nodded in agreement, then gestured in Mingmei's direction. Mingmei immediately understood, walked over, took out a box from a pile of jars containing coffee beans, took out some ground coffee powder, and handed it to Chen Feng.

"Xiaolan, you seem a little distracted. What happened?"

While making coffee, Chen Feng casually asked.

"Uh...I..."

Xiaolan had just opened her mouth, but before she could say anything, Sonoko spoke first:

"What else could it be? Her husband, that reasoning fanatic, called her yesterday. I don't know what they talked about, but it's made her distracted all day."

"The garden!"

Ran glared at Sonoko: "What do you mean, 'Shinichi and I are just ordinary friends'? Besides, he only called to ask for some information, especially about Chen..."

At this point, Xiaolan's voice abruptly stopped.

"Chen what?"

Sonoko asked, puzzled.

"It's just about... something from the past." Xiaolan's mind raced as she spoke.

However, while speaking, her eyes would occasionally glance in Chen Feng's direction, and she couldn't help but feel a little puzzled.

Shinichi Kudo did call yesterday, but what made Ran both annoyed and amused was that he didn't call for her; he simply wanted to get information about Chen Feng from her.

After all, Eri Kisaki had served as Chen Feng's legal advisor, handling various procedures related to inheritance, and naturally possessed Chen Feng's basic information.

Xiao Lan was so angry that she almost hung up on him right then and there. He was gone for more than a month, and the first time he called was for someone else. How could Xiao Lan not be angry?

Mitsuhiko was still staring intently in Ai's direction, but unfortunately, even though he called her several times, Ai didn't respond and just kept looking down at her book.

Conan, however, hadn't uttered a single word since entering, his eyes fixed on Chen Feng, who was busy at the front desk, his mind constantly replaying the information about Chen Feng that he had just received from Ran the day before:

“A Chinese person who has studied in the United States for ten years also has strong detective skills, and may be able to help me out.”

Conan thought to himself.

"Ahhhhh!!!!"

Sonoko, who was sitting in her seat, suddenly stood up with a look of surprise on her face, holding a brand-new newspaper in her hand. She had picked it up casually on the way here, but an unintentional glance at it revealed a big surprise:

"Kid! Lord Kid has sent another announcement!"

"what!"

Conan, who was just thinking, was suddenly interrupted and looked at Sonoko with surprise. He didn't expect that in just a few days, Kaito Kid would choose to strike again!

Others reacted differently. Chen Feng, who was making coffee, only paused slightly before quickly returning to normal and continuing to make coffee.

Akemi and Ai looked at Chen Feng with surprise and confusion in their eyes, as if asking: When did you send out another notice? How come we didn't know?

Conan stood up and said, "Sonoko-neechan, may I take a look at that newspaper?"

"Hey."

Sonoko generously tossed the newspaper to Conan, her eyes still sparkling with anticipation.

"Although I managed to get in touch with Lord Kid last time, I didn't get his autograph. I'm determined to get it this time!"

Ignoring the still agitated Sonoko, Conan's gaze swept across the newspaper:

[In just a few days, Phantom Thief Kid has sent out another warning, this time targeting the diamond hidden inside the Beika City Bank!]

The report was accompanied by images of Cherry Sapphire and the Phantom Thief Kid's teaser letter.

After a quick glance at the picture of the cherry sapphire, Conan's gaze settled on the notice.

This announcement differed slightly in style from Chen Feng's previous announcements. It contained no enigmatic riddles, only an extremely simple narrative, roughly stating:

He will arrive at the scene at midnight three days later and steal the diamonds!

"Your coffee is ready, enjoy."

Chen Feng delivered the coffee he had made to the group in the garden.

Just as he was about to leave, Sonoko immediately stopped him:

"Hey, Chen."

"Ok?"

Chen Feng turned his head to look.

"Lord Kid is going to make his move again. Why don't you, the great detective, go and join the fun?"

……

Chapter 270 Lupin III

"Lord Kid is going to make his move again. Why don't you, the great detective, go and join the fun?"

"Um……"

Chen Feng pretended to ponder for a moment before slowly saying, "I might join in the fun, but they might not ask me for help."

"That's true, but it doesn't matter whether you get my help or not. It doesn't matter who comes, Lord Kidd is invincible!"

Sonoko spoke with a face full of longing, her eyes almost sparkling, which made Ran's lips twitch.

Conan, meanwhile, kept his brow furrowed as he looked at the announcement in the newspaper.

For some reason, he felt that something was off about Kidd's operation, but he couldn't quite put his finger on it.

"boss."

Mingmei stepped forward and gently touched Chen Feng's shoulder.

"Could you please come here for a moment?"

"Uh, okay."

Chen Feng immediately agreed, and after nodding slightly to Yuanzi and the others, he turned around and walked with Mingmei towards the residence behind the shop.

Upon arriving at the residence, after confirming that no one was following, she closed the door and looked at Chen Feng with a puzzled expression.

"Chen, when did you send out another notice?"

"I don't think I ever said I sent out another notice, did I?"
