Seeing his flustered appearance, Officer Chaki and the others couldn't help but feel a sense of unease, and a bad feeling immediately arose in their hearts.

As if things weren't going to go wrong, sure enough, the police officer delivered another heavy blow to the group as soon as he opened his mouth.

"Officer, this is terrible! Mr. Jirokichi Suzuki, the advisor to the Suzuki family, has published a public challenge in the newspaper, wagering the jewel 'Lady in the Sky' against Kaito Kid! And Kaito Kid has already responded, indicating that he is willing to accept the challenge!"

"what!!!"

……

"Great!"

In Chen Feng's coffee shop, Sonoko and Ran were sitting and drinking coffee that Chen Feng had made himself.

When Sonoko saw the headline "[Phantom Thief Kid accepts challenge from Mr. Jirokichi Suzuki]" in the newspaper, she couldn't help but raise her arms and cheer loudly.

His excited appearance attracted the attention of the few customers in the store.

Even Ran and Akemi's lips twitched involuntarily.

It's no wonder Sonoko and Uncle Jirokichi are like family; one keeps failing but still insists on issuing challenges to Kid to steal their house, while the other wants Kid to steal their house more than anyone else.

This is really...

Sonoko seemed oblivious to the strange looks from those around her, and continued to look at Chen Feng with an excited expression:

"Chen, you're really lucky this time! You just got back from out of town and ran into Lord Kidd's latest operation. You're really lucky!"

"That's true."

Chen Feng replied with a smile.

Mingmei, standing nearby, couldn't help but silently think to herself: If he doesn't come back, no one will be able to keep up with Kid's actions.

Welcome!

The mechanical cat at the door emitted an electronic voice.

Immediately afterwards, five children, led by Conan and Ai, walked in.

"Ai is back from school? Conan's here too, and are these your friends?"

Akemi smiled as she took the schoolbag from Ai, and then smiled as she greeted Genta and the others.

"Hello, kids. I'm Ai's older sister. You can just call me Akemi-neechan."

"Akimi-neechan," Ayumi called out sweetly, then turned her gaze towards Chen Feng.

"Big brother, it's great to see you again."

"Yes, it's Ayumi again."

Chen Feng chuckled and stretched out his hand, snapping his fingers to present a miniature lily to Ayumi.

"Wow, it's so beautiful, thank you big brother."

Ayumi smiled and accepted the flowers, looking at Chen Feng with admiration.

Normally, Mitsuhiko, as the "protector of the flower," would have quickly stepped forward and taken Ayumi away from Chen Feng, who had "malicious intentions." However, at this moment, Mitsuhiko was already attracted to Akemi.

"Akemi-neechan, are you Ai's older sister? You're so pretty! Do you have a boyfriend?"

Mitsuhiko greeted Akemi with what he thought was a cool smile and a "mature" tone.

It has to be said that the kids in this world are indeed a bit too precocious. Take Mitsuhiko, for example, a "lovesick" who is not very old but has his heart set on beautiful women.

Conan was speechless at Mitsuhiko's affected manner, and shifted his gaze from him to Ai beside him.

"This Haibara-san seems a bit too composed; she doesn't act like a primary school student at all!"

Conan frowned slightly, deep in thought.

Ai glanced at him, but didn't say anything. She then found an empty seat and sat down.

Looking at the precocious elementary school student in front of her, Mingmei couldn't help but find it a little funny. She glanced in Chen Feng's direction and said, "As for a boyfriend... maybe he does."

"what?"

Mitsuhiko was severely discouraged by this answer, but he quickly regained his confidence and turned his attention to Ai.

"Haibara-kun, you still haven't replied to what I told you last time? As the captain of the Junior Detective League, I'm inviting you to join our Junior Detective League again!"

Upon hearing this, Genta was the first to object: "Hey, what do you mean you're the leader? I'm the leader of the Junior Detective Club, okay?"

"Of course I'm the commander!"

"I am!"

"I'm!"

Chapter 386 Gems: The Noblewoman of the Sky

The children's arguing at the scene made Sonoko look disgusted.

Kids are the worst! It's already annoying enough with just Conan, but now there are so many more!

Sonoko pouted.

At that moment, the café's public television broadcasted a news report:

[Breaking news: A shooting occurred in the early hours of yesterday morning near the commercial district in downtown Beika City. The victims were two adult males.]

Based on the shell casings left at the scene, officers deduced that the sniper used a US-made Mk1 Mod0 sniper rifle. A total of five shell casings were found at the scene, but no trace of the sniper was discovered.

[In addition, the two adult male victims also disappeared after the shooting. The situation is still under investigation. Please stay tuned to our station for the latest updates...]

The news broadcast from public television reached the ears of everyone present.

However, not many people paid attention, but Mingmei noticed the surveillance video of the victim released in the news by chance.

Although the video wasn't very clear due to the distance, Akemi immediately recognized the two men in black—Gin and Vodka!

Mingmei's eyes narrowed slightly, and a storm raged in her heart.

Gin and his companion were attacked? And with a sniper rifle at that? But... who would dare to attack Gin, the leader of the organization's operations team?

Mingmei's mind raced, and her gaze involuntarily drifted toward Chen Feng, who was still chatting with Xiaobumei.

At this moment, Ai also noticed her sister's strange behavior and looked towards the public television. When she saw the images of Gin and Vodka on the news, her body trembled slightly, and her already fair face turned completely pale.

"Haibara-san? Haibara-san, what's wrong?"

Mitsuhiko and Genta, who were trying to strike up a conversation with Ai, were startled and shouted.

The commotion immediately attracted the attention of the other people in the cafe.

Chen Feng turned his head at this moment, noticed Ai's expression, and then looked at the news screen. He immediately understood, walked over, picked Ai up from her seat, and chuckled:

"Sorry, Ai sometimes has low blood sugar. Eating a piece of candy will help."

As he spoke, Chen Feng took out a piece of candy from his pocket and gave it to Xiao Ai. Xiao Ai opened her mouth and swallowed it blankly, but her eyes remained fixed on Chen Feng.

Perhaps the candy worked, because Xiao Ai, who was being held in Chen Feng's arms, slowly regained her composure, and everyone was relieved.

Conan, however, still had his brows furrowed.

Low blood sugar? He also seemed to notice that Haibara was trembling slightly just now. Can low blood sugar make people tremble?

Conan pondered this in his heart, keeping the idea to himself and preparing to find an opportunity to investigate.

At this moment, Mingmei also stepped back to Chen Feng's side and asked in a low voice, "Chen, did you do this?"

Ai also turned her questioning gaze to Chen Feng.

Chen Feng didn't answer directly, but just smiled and patted Xiao Ai's head: "Didn't I say I would protect you? We can't let potential threats keep causing trouble, can we?"

"List……"

Mingmei was slightly taken aback, her red lips pursed, but she didn't say anything more.

Ai remained aloof, but she clearly didn't resist Chen Feng holding her.

"By the way, Chen!"

Sonoko suddenly remembered something and turned to look in Chen Feng's direction:

"In a few days, my uncle plans to use an airship to transport the 'Lady of the Sky' gem as a precaution against Kid. Also, he wants to invite you to be the detective consultant for this operation. Oh, and please also pass on the message to Uncle Mori, Ran."

At this point, Sonoko paused, then switched back to her fangirl expression:

"Of course, don't feel pressured. After all, Lord Kid is invincible. Just treat it as a trip, hahaha—"

Sonoko laughed exaggeratedly.

It wasn't until Ran nudged her subtly that Sonoko regained some composure.

"An aviation-themed cruise ship, is it like the one on TV?" Ayumi asked curiously.

Sonoko replied, "Pretty much."

"Can we go?"

Genta, Mitsuhiko, and Ayumi spoke in unison.

"Uh...you guys..."

"May I?"

The three people asked again with sincerity, all three pairs of eyes looking in the direction of the garden, making the garden feel a little embarrassed.

"Alright, alright, you all come too, and Ms. Akemi, if it's convenient for you, you can come as well."

"I'll pass, I have other things to do."

Mingmei politely declined with a smile.

Sonoko didn't press the matter, but looked in Chen Feng's direction and said, "In that case, Chen, it's agreed that we'll set off in two days."

"it is good."

Chen Feng smiled and nodded.

Sonoko was in a good mood after receiving a satisfactory reply. Although there were a few more kids than expected, it wasn't a big problem.

After staying a while longer, everyone finally left.
