Thief Game: Starting with Obtaining the Kidd Card

However, Chen Feng was prepared. He had noticed the two tagalongs following behind him when he came up earlier, so he was naturally on guard against both of them.

Chen Feng slightly tilted his head to dodge the first soccer ball, but the second one came right after.

Chen Feng narrowed his eyes, and his left hand suddenly shot out, revealing a playing card gun that he had somehow acquired.

The trigger was pulled, and a playing card was fired from the muzzle of the pistol, passing through the middle of the football at extremely high speed, instantly slicing the football in half, leaving only a smooth cut.

"hateful!"

Seeing that neither soccer ball had hit the target, Conan cursed under his breath, feeling a bit annoyed.

"It seems the two detectives over there aren't very welcoming of my arrival."

Chen Feng didn't lower his voice at all, so Conan and Hattori, who were hiding in the corner, could hear him clearly.

Hattori looked a little embarrassed and said in a low voice, "Kudo, are you even capable? You missed both soccer goals!"

Conan glanced at him but didn't reply. He simply pressed his finger quickly on his belt, and the third soccer ball was ejected.

But before he could launch it, a playing card shot out first, cutting the football in half before it could even be launched.

At the same time came Chen Feng's infuriating voice:

"That's enough for now. Don't be so rude next time, little detective!"

Chen Feng chuckled and glanced at the two of them, then jumped off the balcony. By the time everyone could see him again, Chen Feng had changed back into his white clothes and was flying away into the distance on a hang glider.

"Damn thief!!!" Conan exclaimed angrily.

Xiao Lan glanced at the Emperor's Easter Egg that had just been returned to her, then looked in the direction Chen Feng had left, lost in thought.

……

the next day.

Unsurprisingly, the news about Phantom Thief Kid returning the stolen treasure became a trending topic.

Some media outlets even described the incident and Chen Feng's past behavior as "a white-clad wanderer who plays the game of life," which infuriated Inspector Nakamori. After shouting loudly in his office for a while, he vowed for the umpteenth time to catch that despicable thief, Kaito Kid.

The next day.

Inside the lounge.

Sonoko looked at Ran with a surprised expression: "Ran, so that means it was Lord Kid who personally handed you the Easter Egg?"

"Uh...yes."

Xiaolan did not deny it, but nodded directly.

"Did you say anything to him? Did you ask him any personal questions, like how old he is or whether he has a girlfriend?"

……

P.S.: It's the beginning of the month, time to take time off again. Goodnight, love you all (づ￣3￣)づ╭?～

Chapter 337 Famous Detective? Detective Ming!

"Did you say anything to him? Did you ask him any personal questions, like how old he is or whether he has a girlfriend?"

Sonoko looked at Ran with anticipation, her intense gaze leaving Ran speechless for a moment.

Conan and Hattori's lips twitched.

The only person who would care about the thief more than their own belongings after they've been stolen is probably Yuanzi...

"Cough-cough-"

A coughing sound came from the doorway.

Upon seeing who it was, Sonoko, unusually serious, put away her smile and sat up straight on the sofa, obediently calling out, "Dad."

"Ah."

Shiro Suzuki nodded slightly, his gaze sweeping over Chen Feng, Kogoro Mouri, and the others before finally settling on Ran.

"Thank you so much for helping to return this egg, Miss Xiaolan. Also, thank you very much to the detectives as well."

"Oh, you don't need to be so polite..."

Ran was interrupted by Kogoro Mouri's exaggerated laughter before she could finish speaking.

"Haha, you're too kind. Dealing with that thief is my duty, Detective Kogoro Mouri. It's a pity I wasn't there to confront him personally this time, otherwise he would probably be brought to justice by now, hahaha—"

"That Mori guy—"

Conan slapped his forehead, looking as if he couldn't bear to look at him.

Xiao Lan and the others were also speechless.

"Is Uncle Mori always this confident?" Kazuha asked curiously.

"That's it."

Chen Feng spoke first, a smile playing on his lips: "Mainly because Uncle Mori, as a 'detective of the underworld,' is quite capable."

"Oh, I see." Kazuha nodded with some skepticism.

Kogoro Mouri heard the rare words of praise very clearly and gave Chen Feng an appreciative look:

"Good lad, you have good taste! You're much better at talking than that Shinichi Kudo kid. If you were pursuing Ran, I might have agreed long ago."

"father!"

Xiaolan was startled and quickly interrupted, while secretly glancing in Chen Feng's direction. Seeing that his expression hadn't changed, she breathed a slight sigh of relief and then gave Kogoro Mouri a reproachful look.

Sonoko chimed in with a hint of regret, "Yes, it's a shame Ran already has Shinichi..."

Upon hearing the name "Shinichi," Ran inexplicably recalled the words of a thief on the rooftop earlier, her expression subtly changing, and her tone turning somewhat cold as she said:

"Sonoko, don't talk nonsense. I have nothing to do with him. We're just... ordinary classmates."

"Huh? Normal... huh?"

Sonoko looked puzzled, but Ran didn't explain anything.

Conan, sitting on the sofa next to him, was even more confused. He didn't seem to have done anything, did he? Damn it, he should have listened to his mother and called Ran earlier. It shouldn't be too late to call now, right?

Conan scratched his head, thought for a moment, and finally gave up on the idea of ​​making a phone call today.

The reason is simple: he hasn't finished his work here yet. He'll talk about it when he has some free time, and Xiaolan will understand.

Thinking of this, Conan stopped thinking about it and turned to continue discussing yesterday's events with Hattori.

Seeing this, Chen Feng merely smiled slightly before looking away.

Suzuki Shiro spoke again, drawing everyone's attention: "If there's nothing else, I think you might as well come with our ship to Tokyo."

"Tokyo?"

Everyone looked up.

Chen Feng asked, "Mr. Suzuki, are you planning to move the exhibition of the Emperor's Easter Egg from Osaka to Tokyo?"

"Uh...yes."

Suzuki Shiro glanced at Chen Feng in surprise, seemingly not expecting that his explanation had been guessed before he could even begin. He then said:

"Due to the events of the past two days, the museum has encountered some issues. Also, to protect the Easter egg, we have decided to move the exhibition from Osaka to Tokyo. If you have nothing else to do, please continue to come and help us, in case the thief changes his mind."

Shiro Suzuki spoke seriously.

Kogoro Mouri was the first to speak up: "How could I, Kogoro Mouri, be absent from the fight against that thief? If he dares to come again, I'll make sure he knows how powerful Detective Mouri is!!!"

Hattori did think about it for a moment before declining: "I'm sorry, I have things to take care of here, so I can't go."

Shiro Suzuki nodded, then turned his gaze to Chen Feng.

He paid considerable attention to this young man from China.

Not only because of the recommendation from police officer Inspector Megure and others, but also because his wife, Tomoko Suzuki, highly praised him because of the previous cruise ship incident. In addition, the young detective was the first to unravel the secret of this notice.

Most importantly... this young man seems to have a very good relationship with Sonoko, which would be a good thing if possible.

Suzuki Shiro's gaze lingered on Chen Feng and Sonoko, and the smile on his lips was quite intriguing.

Sonoko seemed to notice her father's strange gaze, and looked up at him with a puzzled expression. However, Suzuki Shiro quickly looked away and returned his gaze to Chen Feng's direction.

"Where is Mr. Chen? Do you have time?"

The others in the garden also came to look.

Chen Feng thought for a moment and said, "If Mr. Suzuki doesn't mind, then I'll take my leave."

"Haha, I don't mind. Since you're Sonoko's friend, you don't need to address me so formally anymore. Just call me Uncle Suzuki, like Ran does." Suzuki Shiro waved his hand with a smile.

"Uncle Suzuki."

Chen Feng didn't think there was anything wrong and nodded and called out.

Suzuki Shiro's smile widened, and after looking Sonoko and Chen Feng up and down a few more times, he finally looked away.

"Then I'll have Nishino pick you all up at 8 p.m. tomorrow."

Upon hearing this, Nishino, Suzuki Shiro's assistant who had been following him, stepped forward, nodded slightly to the crowd, and then followed Suzuki Shiro out of the venue.

Only after Suzuki Shiro's figure completely disappeared from the venue did Sonoko look at Chen Feng with a puzzled expression:

"Chen, I feel like my dad's gaze towards us is a little strange? It feels like... there's something different about it."

"Is there?"

Chen Feng turned his head in confusion. His attention was focused on figuring out how to handle his next move and keeping an eye on that Grim Reaper elementary school student. He hadn't really paid attention to what Sonoko was saying.

"Maybe I'm seeing things."

Sonoko said something, but didn't dwell on the issue. She put on a smiling face again and enthusiastically discussed with Chen Feng and the others how to have fun in Tokyo.
