Everyone was surprised.

In particular, Officer Nakamori frowned deeply, looking at Chen Feng with a puzzled expression.

However, Chen Feng clearly had no intention of continuing the conversation, and simply smiled and said:

"Alright everyone, I think you'll understand the specifics soon, but before that, please allow me to take my leave."

With that, Chen Feng smiled and nodded at everyone before preparing to leave.

"Kidd!"

A voice suddenly came from behind, stopping Chen Feng.

Xiaolan opened her mouth as if she wanted to say something, but after thinking about it, she swallowed it back and only said, "Thank you."

"You're welcome, Miss Xiaolan."

Chen Feng placed his hands in front of him, bowed slightly, and then left the hall with Ishimoto Junpei, who was disguised as Akemi.

However, just as he reached the door, Chen Feng seemed to remember something and turned to look at everyone again:

"By the way, everyone, if it's convenient, you should hurry up and check over at the upper airbag area. A young detective seems to have fainted there."

As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Feng left the lobby, jumped out of the window onto the travel boat, and, under the watchful eyes of everyone, flew away into the distance with Mingmei on the glider.

"What... a detective kid?"

Sonoko was still a little confused, and tentatively asked a question.

Ran frowned, then suddenly looked up: "Oh no! It's Conan!"

……

At this time, in Osaka.

Because news had been released that a cruise ship carrying the virus was about to hit Osaka, almost all the residents of Osaka had already fled the city.

The once bustling city center has become eerily quiet, with only the sound of the wind rustling through the leaves clearly audible; the entire city resembles a ghost town.

At this moment, in a temple that looks quite old.

Several men in police uniforms entered the temple from the entrance, circled the various rooms of the temple, and then regrouped in the courtyard, though their expressions were noticeably more unpleasant.

As the group gathered, a young man spoke first:

"Damn it! What's going on?! Those priceless golden Buddha statues and antiques! How come they're all gone?!"

Another person speculated, "Could it be that those monks moved these things away before they left?"

This statement immediately drew opposition from the youth:

"Impossible! The news of the virus attack on the city was released at a precise time! There's simply no way we could have done all this in such a short time!"

"So tell me, what's the situation now?"

"How should I know!" the young man said irritably.

Just then, the person keeping watch outside rushed in:

"It's terrible! Police! Lots of police have arrived! The place is surrounded by police!"

"what!"

Everyone was shocked.

However, just a few minutes later, a large number of police officers rushed in and arrested everyone inside the temple.

Ten minutes later, at the temple entrance.

Two men dressed as police officers were watching as prisoners were being escorted into police cars.

"Inspector Megure, thank you very much this time." The middle-aged man, who looked resolute and had a dignified air, spoke.

"Ah, you're too kind, Officer Hattori. It's all I should do," Inspector Megure said politely.

Whether it's because of his rank or something else, he deserves his respect.

"It's a pity that those antiques and golden Buddha statues were stolen too late."

Officer Hattori said, "That's a pity, but fortunately we've caught the thief, so there's still a chance to get the lost Buddha statue back."

"Oh, by the way, I heard that this intelligence was deduced by a detective from China. Is that true?"

Officer Hattori looked at Officer Megure with curiosity.

"Um...it's true, his surname is Chen, and he's an exceptionally talented young detective..."

……

On the other side at this moment.

The cruise ship has landed safely in Osaka.

Aside from Officer Nakamori taking the prisoners away immediately, Suzuki Jirokichi also hurriedly left with his men.

At this moment, in a lounge at the Osaka Metropolitan Police Department.

Chen Feng, Ran, Sonoko, Conan, Hattori, and Kazuha gathered together.

"Chen, how did you figure out that the group's goal wasn't to carry out a terrorist attack, but rather to use the pretext of a terrorist attack to attract attention and then steal treasure from the ancient temple?"

Xiao Lan looked at Chen Feng with a puzzled expression and asked him a question.

Chen Feng put down his coffee cup, smiled, and said:

"Actually, I noticed something was wrong when that reporter toasted me earlier. The amount of drug they put in my drink was too high. If I had drunk it, I would most likely be like Uncle Mori, still not awake."

"And I am someone who is quite interested in bartending. With such a large dose of sedative, I noticed that the smell was not right as soon as I put it to my lips. Although I could not be sure if it was the smell of sedative, it was at least not the smell of a normal cocktail."

Sonoko asked, "Is it that simple?"

"Of course not."

Chen Feng continued:

"They later sent people to attack me in the bathroom and even gave me what they called a 'virus,' but what they didn't know was that I had studied intangible cultural heritage techniques with several master craftsmen in China for a period of time, including raw lacquer."

"So I could smell the virus as soon as they sprinkled it on me. The so-called virus is actually raw lacquer, but more than 95% of people are allergic to raw lacquer, so they used it to pretend it was a virus."

"Since the virus is fake, then the terrorist attack must also be fake. Considering the places they're planning to attack, I guessed they were trying to use a feint."

"The ostensible purpose of carrying out a terrorist attack is actually to steal treasures from somewhere nearby! The most likely motive is an ancient temple in Osaka, isn't it?"

Upon hearing Chen Feng's words, Sonoko's lips twitched.

"You've even learned intangible cultural heritage techniques? Is there anything in this world you haven't learned?"

……

Chapter 398 Reunion with Yukiko at the Seaside Villa

"You've even learned intangible cultural heritage techniques? Is there anything in this world you haven't learned?"

As soon as Sonoko spoke, Ran and Ye nodded in agreement.

From magic to deduction, from bartending to coffee brewing, and now even the extremely rare intangible cultural heritage technique of raw lacquer, they all wonder if Chen Feng can do everything.

Even Ai, who had been sitting silently in her seat, couldn't help but glance at him.

This guy... knows a lot. Even if he doesn't become a thief in the future, he'll probably achieve great success in other industries.

Ai thought to herself, then continued to look down at her newspaper.

On the sofa next door.

Conan crossed his arms, looking displeased.

Hattori looked at Conan with a teasing expression: "So... you were chased and ambushed by those guys for more than ten minutes, and then you were knocked unconscious by a smoke bomb that appeared out of nowhere, right?"

"You've asked that more than ten times! Aren't you going to stop?"

Conan gritted his teeth and spoke.

The more he thought about what had happened, the more suspicious it seemed. According to the conversation with the terrorist, it was clear that someone had specifically arranged to target him.

What's even more despicable is that they sent more than a dozen strong adults to arrest him, just for the sake of a "child" like himself.

Judging from their appearance, if he hadn't been in the airbag area, they wouldn't have dared to fire. Conan had no doubt that the other side would have riddled him with bullets. And then there was that huge pile of hypnotic gas thrown from all directions at the end, which showed that it was definitely not something one person could do.

In other words, there was a third group of people on the cruise ship at the time, besides the terrorists!

Moreover, judging from their operational efficiency, they are a well-trained, well-equipped group with unified command! This is troublesome!

Thinking of this, Conan's eyes became increasingly wary.

Not far away.

Sonoko was still enthusiastically telling Kazuha about the scenes on the yacht, especially the scene where Ran helped subdue the robbers, which she described with great enthusiasm:

"Kazuha, it's a pity you weren't there. When Lord Kid suddenly appeared, we were all stunned. At first, we couldn't believe it, and then we were overjoyed. Most importantly, Ran even cooperated with Lord Kid to subdue the remaining robbers in the house."

"You didn't see it, Ran was so cool back then! It's just a pity I don't know karate, otherwise I could have teamed up with Kaito Kid properly. I'm so envious!!!"

Sonoko shook Ran's arm, looking on with envy.

Seeing this, Xiaolan could only smile helplessly, and couldn't help but recall the scene from that time.

Although she still doesn't know how Kid suddenly appeared in the room, in that situation, it doesn't matter anymore...

"Xiao Lan! Xiao Lan!"

"Huh? W-what's wrong?"

Ran snapped back to reality and looked at Kazuha with a smile.

Kazuha asked with a puzzled look, "What's wrong? What are you thinking about? You seem so engrossed."

"Really?" Xiaolan's smile seemed a little unnatural.

Yes! Absolutely!

Sonoko nodded in agreement: "You seem a bit distracted ever since you left the cruise ship. Are you feeling unwell?"

"Um...no, I'm probably just a little tired and haven't had enough rest. It's nothing," Xiaolan said.

"Is that right?"
