Thief Game: Starting with Obtaining the Kidd Card

"Yes, I just moved there not long ago, so I haven't mentioned moving again."

Yukiko nodded and answered truthfully.

"That's a pity."

"What a pity? You despicable thief! Just now, in front of Conan... you... sob sob—"

The conversation was interrupted again.

Three minutes later, when the two separated again, Yukiko's face was noticeably flushed.

After chatting casually for a few more minutes, Chen Feng left Yukiko's room.

Of course, a farewell kiss is also essential before leaving.

……

The night passed quickly.

The next day.

Thanks to the Suzuki family's financial power, the group, who had just disembarked from the cruise ship, were then chauffeured in Suzuki family luxury cars and headed towards the Natsumi family villa on the outskirts of Tokyo.

Along the way, Xia Mei, as the hostess, enthusiastically explained to everyone about her family's castle and the relationship between her great-grandfather and the Romanov Kingdom.

"Huh? I remember Mr. Hanchuan's necklace, it seems to be an item from the Romanov Kingdom, right? It seems... it belonged to some princess."

Sonoko asked, puzzled.

"It's Princess Maria."

Sitting in the passenger seat, Sireuf said, "She is the third daughter of Nikala II, the emperor of the Polar Bear Kingdom. She was also the most intelligent of the emperor's many children at the time. She was born with a pair of very beautiful gray eyes."

Unfortunately, a revolution later occurred, and the entire imperial family was killed, except for Princess Maria and the then-crown prince, whose whereabouts remain unknown.

"Grey eyes?"

Conan, sitting in the back row, was slightly taken aback when he heard this information. He looked up at Natsumi sitting next to him and Urako Seiran in the last row, and his brows furrowed slightly.

It's understandable that Miss Xia Mei's eyes are gray, after all, her great-grandmother was Russian, and perhaps a noble with royal blood at the time. But Miss Pu Siqinglan, isn't she Chinese?

Did the people of the Russian bear country and China start intermarrying so early on?

……

Chapter 349 A few more little devils have arrived.

The vehicle drove steadily along the winding mountain road until it turned at the last intersection, at which point the Western European-style castle standing atop the mountain came into view.

The pointed-roof pavilions stand all around, as if to protect the main castle in the center. The overall color scheme is mainly white and brown, which, although not very luxurious, exudes elegance.

squeak-

The sound of tires screeching against the ground filled the air as the extended vehicle came to a smooth stop in front of an ancient castle, and everyone stepped out of the car one by one.

"Is this Miss Xia Mei's castle? It's magnificent!"

Looking at the towering fortress in front of her, Xiaolan couldn't help but sigh.

Others chimed in to agree.

“This castle looks rather German,” Yukiko remarked thoughtfully.

"Ok?"

Conan and the others glanced at each other slightly.

"But... wasn't Miss Xia Mei's great-grandmother from the Arctic Bear Country? And her great-grandfather also lived in the Arctic Bear Country for many years, so why would he build such a German-style castle?"

Sonoko asked, puzzled.

Others also glanced at Xia Mei, the person involved.

"Well... I'm not really sure either. It might be due to my great-grandfather and great-grandmother's own aesthetic sense."

Xia Mei guessed and spoke.

Chen Feng also spoke up at this moment: "Actually, it's not surprising. After all, from a certain perspective, the style of the Russian bear country and the German style are quite similar. Perhaps Miss Xia Mei's great-grandfather was the kind of person who preferred the German style."

"Maybe."

Xia Mei smiled slightly at Chen Feng.

Old man~~

The roar of a car engine came from afar, causing the people present to look behind them.

As they approached, a yellow vintage car slowly drove up, finally entering through the manor gate and coming to a steady stop in front of them.

The group exchanged glances, all seemingly curious about the identity of the vehicle that had suddenly arrived.

As the car door opened, an elderly man in a white coat, with a slightly overweight build, stepped out of the driver's seat.

However, he had just opened his mouth and hadn't even had a chance to say hello when he was interrupted by a child's voice suddenly coming from behind him.

"Ah, this is the castle from TV! It looks just like the one described in the story, so beautiful!"

"Yes, I wonder if there's any good food in the castle, preferably an endless supply of eel rice!"

"Genta! All you know is eating! What's eel rice? I bet there are countless treasures inside this castle, just waiting for me to arrive and bring them back to the light of day!"

"Hmph, not as good as eel rice!"

The children behind him were chattering away, and even Professor Agasa looked a little embarrassed, scratching the few remaining hairs on the back of his head, unsure of what to say.

"Where did all these brats come from?" Kogoro Mouri complained, arms crossed and looking annoyed.

"Why are these guys here?" Conan's face darkened.

Of course, Genta and the others quickly noticed Conan ahead and happily came up to him.

"Conan! I knew you'd be here! Now our Detective Boys are all together again! I, Genta, am very pleased!"

"When did you become a regimental commander? Did you just appoint yourself?"

"What do you mean by self-proclaimed? Don't I deserve it?"

"What a joke! If anyone should be the leader, it should be me!"

The group, who were just chatting happily, instantly fell apart because of the leader's problem, leaving Conan speechless for a while.

Ayumi, who was standing on the far left, glanced around the crowd before her gaze settled on one person.

"Hey! Big brother! You're here too!"

Ayumi ran up to Chen Feng with a big smile on her face.

Yukiko was surprised to see his happy expression and looked in Chen Feng's direction with astonishment.

That gaze seemed to say: You wouldn't even spare such a small child?

Chen Feng was speechless. If it weren't for the large number of people around, he would have definitely slapped Yukiko's butt hard to teach her a lesson about how slander in one's heart is still slander.

Moreover, I am currently in a state of "pretending," and even if it were true, it would be the problem of "Chen Feng, the coffee shop owner."

Bah! I would never make such a bizarre mistake under any of my identities!

After exchanging glances with Yukiko for two seconds, Chen Feng slowly squatted down, a smile on his lips as he looked at Ayumi in front of him.

"We meet again, young lady."

As he spoke, Chen Feng placed his hand in front of him and presented a white lily he had somehow obtained to Bu Mei.

Ayumi happily accepted it, but there was still a strange look in her eyes.

"Big brother, what are you doing here?"

"I have a job here."

Chen Feng responded with a smile.

The casual way the two chatted caught the attention of Mitsuhiko, who was standing nearby. He had just been arguing with Genta, and seeing how familiar the two seemed, he felt like something was on his head.

She quickly dropped Genta and rushed to Ayumi's side, looking wary of this "love rival who had previously taken Ai from her and was now eyeing Ayumi."

And on the side.

"Why is the professor here?" Xiaolan asked, puzzled.

"Ah, I received a call from Conan earlier, so I thought I'd come and see if there were any problems, and also deliver something to Conan."

"That's it."

Xiao Lan nodded, not thinking much of it.

Meanwhile, Kogoro Mouri, standing to the side, looked at the group of kids with a displeased expression.

One was annoying enough, but now there are three more! It's like the whole world has become a nightmare!

"You little brats! You're not allowed inside the castle later! Do you hear me!"

“Yes,” Yuan Tai immediately agreed.

Mitsuhiko smiled and nodded, "I heard that."

His cheerful demeanor made Kogoro Mouri hesitate to say what was on the tip of his tongue, and he could only swallow it back down.

"Agreeing so readily? Something's fishy!" Conan's lips twitched. He turned his gaze from the group to Professor Agasa and said in a low voice:

Why did you bring them here?

"Uh..." Professor Agasa scratched his head sheepishly, "I didn't bring them on purpose. They sneaked onto the car and followed us here."

Conan was speechless again upon hearing this, but he didn't say anything more.

It was indeed difficult for Professor Agasa to look after these guys.

"Why hasn't Mr. Qian arrived yet?" Sireuf asked impatiently, looking towards the door.

Before everyone arrived, Inui Shoichi, an art dealer, had temporarily separated from the group, citing some business to attend to. He also said that he would come as soon as possible and would not take up much of their time.
