Yuanzi first showed a look of realization, and then couldn't help gossiping: "But you and Xiaolan look too much alike, I would believe you if you said you were twin sisters. Xiaolan, am I right?"

"Yes!"

Kaito Kid nodded awkwardly, then pretended to accidentally drop the black pearl accessory on his chest, and exclaimed, "Oh no! That's bad..."

"boom!!!"

As soon as the black pearl accessory landed on the ground, it exploded into a ball of white smoke.

Kaito Kidd, who was hiding in the smoke, took the opportunity to throw out a few more smoke bombs, covering the entire hall in smoke.

“What a huge smoke!”

"Whoever stepped on my foot, stop pushing!"

"Cough cough cough..."

While everyone was in chaos, Kaito Kid quietly came to Suzuki Tomoko and stole the genuine "Dark Star" she was wearing on her chest.

The Dark Star is a family heirloom of the Suzuki family, and Suzuki Tomoko will definitely not hand it over to outsiders easily.

Therefore, the real dark star is either in Suzuki Tomoko or in Suzuki Sonoko.

The black pearl jewelry worn by Suzuki Sonoko has a dazzling luster and does not meet the characteristics of antique pearls, so the one worn by Suzuki Tomoko is the real dark star.

"careful!"

In order to prevent Nakamori Aoko and Sonoko from getting hurt in the chaos, Baili Jing immediately pulled them to his side.

"Damn you Kidd, don't even think about escaping!"

At this time, Conan had already realized that Ran Mouri was actually Kid in disguise, and he chased after her in a rage.

It’s a pity that the devil is always one step ahead of the good!

Although Conan successfully blocked Kidd, he was tricked by Kidd using Ran Mouri.

"boom!"

With a flash of white smoke, Kidd disappeared without a trace, leaving behind only a red evening dress and two pink underwear.

"Little Detective, if you don't hurry over, the girl sleeping in the lifeboat will catch a cold~"

"hateful!"

When Conan thought of Ran Mouri lying naked in the cold lifeboat, he no longer cared about chasing Kidd. He hurriedly picked up the clothes on the ground and ran towards the lifeboat.

When Conan rushed to the lifeboat, he saw that the auxiliary patrol police had already found Mouri Ran and were preparing to take her out of the lifeboat.

"Wait a minute, wait a minute, no..."

Seeing that Ran Mouri was about to be seen naked, Conan became extremely panicked and hurriedly shouted to stop it.

Chapter 83: Death of a Magician (Fourth Update)

The patrolling police ignored Conan's words and carried Mouri Ran, who was wearing a red evening dress, out of the lifeboat under his extremely panicked gaze.

???

Conan blinked in confusion at first, then noticed that there was a card with the Kaito Kid mark on it pinned on Mouri Ran's clothes.

The content on the card reads: This red dress I borrowed from you a few days ago is indeed very suitable for a lovely girl like you. From Kaito Kid, who also works as a cleaner occasionally.

"Damn it, I got tricked by that guy!"

Only then did Conan realize that he had been tricked by Kaito Kidd.

After Mao Lilan woke up from her coma, Bai Lijing introduced Nakamori Aoko to her again, and the two quickly became friends.

Although Kaito Kidd escaped, he had already confirmed that the Dark Star was not the jewel he was looking for before he fled, so he handed the Dark Star to Conan.

Since the Dark Star was not taken away by Kaito Kidd, this matter ended perfectly.

……

Friday evening

Dr. Ali's house

"Shinichi, are you listening to me?"

Listening to Yukiko's dissatisfied complaints coming from the receiver, Conan said helplessly: "Yes, yes, I'm listening, Mom~"

"Your father Yusaku went out early again today. I finally waited for him to come back, but he got me drunk. I'm really pissed off."

Conan quickly comforted him, "You can't blame Dad for that. He's a famous novelist, so he must have a lot of social engagements~"

"So what kind of social event do you think you have to have a woman's lipstick mark on your shirt? It makes me so mad. I'm going to have an affair too!"

"Mom, calm down! Don't do anything rash..."

Conan was afraid that Yukiko would really get angry and do something out of line, so he tried his best to persuade her.

"Asshole! You don't need to mind your own business!"

When Conan, who was so thirsty that he had to comfort Yukiko, just walked to the door of the Mouri Detective Agency, he heard the voice of Mouri Kogoro shouting again.

Hearing this, Hibiki Eri on the other end of the phone frowned and said, "What's your attitude? I introduced this client to you out of kindness so that you can do more business."

"Who wants a woman like you to meddle in my business?"

Kisaki Eri sneered and said, "If that's the case, then it's up to you. But if you lose your job one day and have no place to live, don't blame me, Mr. Detective."

"Thank you for being so nosy and worrying about me, you, Miss lawyer, how hateful!" After saying this, Kogoro Mouri hung up the phone angrily.

"I didn't expect this couple was also arguing. Is autumn really a good time for quarreling?"

Conan secretly complained in his heart, put his schoolbag on the sofa, then went to the refrigerator to get a bottle of iced cola to moisten his throat which was about to smoke.

At the same time, a black Hummer slowly stopped downstairs of the Maori Detective Agency.

Baili Jing, who was wearing a school uniform, got out of the passenger seat first, then opened the back door and invited Mao Lilan to get out.

Because Baili Jing and Mao Lilan are not only neighbors but also good friends, Mao Lilan would give him a ride every time he went home from school.

Anyway, Baili Jing often comes to the Maori Detective Agency for free meals, so Maori Ran won't feel embarrassed to take a ride with him.

Under the guidance of Mao Lilan, Bai Lijing followed her into the Mao Li Detective Agency.

"Sister Xiaolan, you're back!"

When Conan saw Hyakumi Mirror coming back with Mouri Ran, he was not surprised at all. Instead, he looked as if he was used to it.

Except for a few days every month, Baili Jing comes to the Mouri Detective Agency for meals almost every day, and Mouri Kogoro and the others have long been accustomed to it.

"Conan, let's have steak tonight~"

Mao Lilan first raised the ingredients in her hand with a smile, and then called to Baili Jing: "A Jing, please sit down. I will go to make dinner."

"Ding-dong-"

Not long after Baili Jing and his friends finished their dinner, the doorbell suddenly rang.

Mao Lilan quickly walked forward and opened the door, only to see a middle-aged woman in a yellow suit standing outside.

"Excuse me, is this the Mori Detective Agency? Lawyer Eri Kisaki introduced me here."

Hearing the middle-aged woman's words, Maori Kogoro hurriedly went up to her and said, "You are Mrs. Kujuu Nanae, right? I am Maori Kogoro, please take a seat over here."

Although Kogoro Mouri was a little unhappy that Eri Kisaki had increased his workload without his permission, he had no reason to chase the customer away since there was already a commission coming his way.

"Tea, please."

Seeing this, Mao Lilan skillfully brewed two cups of tea and brought them in front of the two people.

From the conversation between Kogoro Mori and Nanae Kujuu, Baili Jing and the others quickly figured out the cause and effect of the matter.

A week ago, Kyuujiu Nanae's husband died at home, and the police concluded that her husband committed suicide by taking poison.

However, Kujuu Nanae did not agree with this conclusion, because their baby daughter's birthday was tomorrow, and her husband had clearly promised her that he would take her abroad to celebrate her birthday, so how could he suddenly commit suicide?

Moreover, Kujuku Nanae's husband, named Kujuku Motoyasu, is one of the best magicians in the island country and is also very famous internationally.

A famous magician like Kyujuku Motoyasu, who had a harmonious family and was very rich, had no reason to commit suicide.

That's why, under the introduction of Kisaki Eri, Kujuu Shichie came to find Mori Kogoro to investigate the real cause of her husband's death.

"In that case, please take us to your home to have a look!"

"Okay, please follow me."

Under the leadership of Jiujiu Nanae, Baili Jing and his companions took a black Hummer and finally stopped in front of a luxuriously decorated villa.

"Wow--"

Looking at the magnificent decoration inside the villa, Maori Kogoro couldn't help but sigh: "This house is really magnificent."

"Of course!" Mao Lilan said as if it was a matter of course: "Mr. Jiujiu Yuankang is a world-renowned magician~"

"A famous magician?"

Upon hearing this, Baili Jing revealed a playful smile.

"Madam, please take us to see the room where your husband's body was found!"

"Okay, please follow me..."

"Please wait!"

Just as Jiujiu Nanae was about to leave with Bailijing and the others, a man's voice suddenly sounded, followed by a short-haired young man in a red suit who walked down the stairs from the second floor.

Chapter 84: Miniature Yukiko (Fifth Update)

The short-haired young man walked up to Mao Lilan and asked with a mysterious expression: "This beautiful lady, are you in great trouble now?"

???

Mao Lilan blinked her beautiful eyes in confusion, pointed at herself uncertainly and said, "Are you talking about me?"

"It's no use trying to hide it, because I know it very well. If you don't believe me, look, there is such a big pigeon hidden in your hair!"

The short-haired young man raised his hand and waved it next to Mao Lilan's ear, and a white dove suddenly emerged from her hair.

"Wow! That's amazing~"

Only then did Mao Lilan realize that the short-haired young man in front of her was also a magician.

"Let me introduce him to you. His name is Baidi Yudo, and he is one of my master's three most proud students."

Kujuku Nanae first introduced the short-haired young man to Baili Jing and the others, and then pointed at Maori Kogoro and introduced him: "Yuto, this is the famous detective Maori Kogoro."

"Mouri Kogoro? He's the famous detective, but why is the famous detective here?"

As soon as Baichi Yutu finished speaking, a pleasant voice suddenly sounded: "You are really stupid. Of course he is here to investigate the real cause of the teacher's death."

Baili Jing and the others looked in the direction of the sound and saw a beautiful long-haired woman in a green dress and high heels walking towards them.

"I think what I said is correct, right? Mr. Detective."

The long-haired beauty first greeted Maori Kogoro, then reached out and grabbed Maori Ran's shoulders, threw her a wink and said, "And this plump lady."

"full?"

"Pullingleng..."

Before Mao Lilan could react, her clothes suddenly swelled up, and several white doves flew out from her clothes and skirt.

(ω)

Conan's face turned slightly red, and he subconsciously muttered to himself: "White...white."

"ah!"

Mao Lilan screamed subconsciously and quickly covered her lifted skirt with her hands.

When Bailijing saw this scene, he nodded slightly and said, "This magic is quite interesting~"

The long-haired beauty reached out to catch the pigeons, then smiled and introduced herself: "Hello, my name is Sanhao Mazi, and I am also a disciple of Master Yuankang."

"But didn't the teacher commit suicide? Why did we need to ask a detective to investigate?"

Facing Baidi Yuto's question, Miyoshi Asako narrowed her eyes and said, "Because the teacher doesn't look like someone who would commit suicide, and the two playing cards found at the scene are a bit too strange."

"Poker cards?" Maori Kogoro couldn't help but frowned when he heard this and asked, "What poker cards?"
