"Hahaha."

Hearing Suzuki Tomoko's teasing words, the guests present cooperated and echoed her.

Suzuki Tomoko's smile remained unchanged, and she slowly raised an exquisite little box in her hand.

"I handed this small box to each guest when they boarded the ship."

"Now you may all open them. Honestly, this is a challenge to that stupid little thief."

"Eh?"

Yotsuba let out a surprised exclamation, then quickly took out an identical small box from her arms.

"Mrs. Suzuki's box is surprisingly the same as ours."

Nino and Ichika had already guessed something, and couldn't help but look at each other in surprise.

The people present below were not stupid either. Some of them had already opened the black box, and the slightly quiet atmosphere instantly became lively.

"Yes, you read that correctly."

Tomoko Suzuki opened the small box in her hand and said with a smile and pride.

"This is our heirloom, the Dark Star."

"That's what's in the box you have."

"It goes without saying that there is only one Dark Star, and all the others are fakes."

"As for who I gave the authentic item to, that's something only I know, so everyone should keep it safe."

Having said this, Suzuki Tomoko added with full confidence and a smile on her face.

"That little thief... no, Kaito Kidd, I know you might already be at the scene. If you have the ability, why not find the real thing and show it to me."

As soon as the words fell, the people in the banquet hall could no longer maintain their calm expressions.

They were all excited and wondered whether what they had in their hands was the real thing, and they were talking about it among themselves.

After all, this is a dark star, a priceless jewel.

It is no exaggeration to say that this tiny black pearl can allow ordinary people to reach the pinnacle of society in an instant and never have to worry about food and drink for the rest of their lives.

"Will mine be real?"

"No, I think mine might be."

"That shouldn't be possible. There are so many people in the venue right now. The chances are too small."

"That's hard to say. After all, us quintuplets got five boxes, which is an advantage that others don't have."

"Speaking of which, how come all these black pearls are exactly the same? I can't tell the difference."

After hearing this, Suzuki Sonoko knew the reason and continued with a bright smile.

"That's because Mom found a fake made by a professional jewelry master."

"In order to make it extremely similar and realistic, a lot of effort was put into it, and we made about 500 to 600 of them."

Upon hearing this, Mao Lilan exclaimed.

“Wouldn’t this cost a lot of money?”

"Well...it's not that much, just a few hundred million."

Suzuki Sonoko waved her hand indifferently.

Hearing this, Siye fiddled with Black Pearl's little hands and couldn't help but tremble.

He almost dropped the black pearl in his hand and it fell to the ground.

Ichika joked with a smile.

"Be careful, don't break it. If the one you have is real, I won't be able to pay for it even if I sell you off."

"Eh?! Don't make it sound so scary. It makes me even more nervous."

"Hehehe, it's okay. There are so many people here, the chances of winning are too low."

"Shiki-kun, what do you think? Let me see your box."

At the end of her words, Miku came to Shirakawa Shiki and wanted to look for the small box on his body.

"..."

Shirakawa Shiki found it funny to hear Miku, Nino, and Yotsuba holding the small box cautiously and whispering about their guesses.

He casually handed the box to Miku and let her examine it seriously.

"Don't even think about it. Mine can't be true."

"No, I should say there are no real ones on our table, including the others."

His decisive words made Nakano Omaru, Mori Kogoro, and Hiratsuka Shizuka's father turn around and look at him in surprise.

When he saw this young face, Kogoro Mouri for some reason had the image of Kudo Shinichi asking for a beating flashing through his mind, so he curled his lips.

"Little boy, don't be so confident."

"Even I, Maori Kogoro, might not be able to find the true Dark Star so quickly, let alone you?"

"Of course, if I get serious, such trivial matters are not worth mentioning."

Shirakawa Shiki was speechless when he saw that Kogoro Mori not only questioned himself but also praised him.

Doubts aside, he still boasts...

Hiratsuka Shizuka's father ignored him and asked Shirakawa Shiki with interest, his eyes slightly narrowed.

"Shirakawa-kun, why do you say that?"

"Could it be that you have found where the real thing is?"

"Huh?! Have you found the real thing?"

The last sentence was followed by Miku and the others' surprised exclamations.

"I can't say I've found it."

Shirakawa Shiki touched his nose and looked upward at Suzuki Tomoko, who was carefully taking out the Dark Star from a small box and putting it on, with a playful look on her face.

"It should be said that Mrs. Suzuki would never trust such a valuable item to a stranger whose background she didn't know."

"Mijiu, if it's something very important to you, would you be at ease?"

"So, it's obvious that Mrs. Suzuki's must be the real thing."

Although he would never forget something that was vividly remembered, even if he didn't know how it happened, the people present were rarely stupid.

If you think about it carefully, you will understand where the real thing is most likely to be found.

"So, it's obvious that Mrs. Suzuki's must be the real thing."

After Shirakawa Shiki finished speaking, although the entire banquet hall was in an uproar, it could not cover up the surprise of Maori Kogoro and others.

"Huh? Is that really the case? Mom didn't even tell me which one is true."

"Shirakawa-san, you're amazing."

Suzuki Sonoko's eyes were shining, and her hands were clasped in front of her chest.

He looked at Shirakawa-shi in amazement, and the more he looked, the more he couldn't hide his joy.

After all, which girl doesn't like a boy with good looks and smart brain?

"Little boy, don't be too confident, or you'll get slapped in the face."

When Maori Kogoro saw Kudo Shinichi again, he felt familiar with that annoying face and couldn't help feeling a little unhappy.

"However, what Shirakawa-kun said is very likely."

Hiratsuka Shizuka's father's indifferent face twitched, he glanced at Suzuki Tomoko on the stage and smiled strangely.

"Based on what I understand, it's probably correct."

"right."

"That's amazing, I think it makes sense."

"That's right, that's right."

"How can Shiki-kun be wrong?! If anyone is wrong, it should be someone else."

Miku and the others had different expressions and spoke.

Having said this, they followed Suzuki Tomoko's instructions and pinned their own dark stars on the front of their clothes.

Even if it is a fake, it looks very good on these beautiful girls.

At this moment, Conan, who had just returned from the bathroom, ran back quickly.

"Sister Xiaolan, Uncle Kogoro, something terrible has happened!!!"

"Huh? Conan?"

Unlike the gentle Ran Mouri, Kogoro Mouri pushed Conan's face away and spoke with a teasing tone.

"What are you so surprised about? What's going on?"

"Could it be that you, little brat, peed in your own pants?!"

As soon as the words fell, Miku and the others' fair faces suddenly turned red.

They never expected that this middle-aged man who looked mature could speak so carelessly.

Mao Lilan was also a little embarrassed. She looked at them guiltily and said in a coquettish tone with some annoyance.

"dad!!"

After all, it's different in your own home than in front of outsiders.

Kogoro Mouri received his daughter's scolding, but he laughed without taking it seriously.

"No way! Uncle Kogoro!"

Conan's face looked a little serious, and his eyes behind the lenses were scanning the entire venue.

"I saw Uncle Jirokichi's casual clothes in the restroom."

"what?!"

Suzuki Sonoko was the first to change her expression, and even Suzuki Tomoko, who was walking not far away, changed her expression as well.

"I suspect that the uncle Jiroji who arrived at the venue this time was actually Kaito Kidd impersonating him."

"Fake? How dare this little thief be so bold!"

Except for Shirakawa Shiki, everyone else exclaimed in surprise.

"I was talking to Uncle Jirokichi face to face just now, and I didn't even see through his disguise."

"Kaito Kidd is so powerful."

Suzuki Sonoko muttered softly, with a hint of excitement on her face as if she had seen her idol.

Suzuki Tomoko was right next to her, so she naturally caught her mumbling.

He couldn't help but subconsciously touch the dark star on his chest, feeling a lingering fear.

Not to mention Sonoko, even she had been in the venue for such a long time and didn't notice anything wrong with Suzuki Jirokichi.

Obvious.

If Kaito Kidd had not kept his promise and acted earlier, the dark star on her body would undoubtedly have disappeared long ago.

"You said he's in the venue right now, disguised as someone else?"

"Correct."

Conan nodded affirmatively. At this moment, he didn't care about disguising himself as a child. Instead, he quickly turned his eyes to scan the entire banquet hall.

"I just don't know who he is disguised as now."

"Then I'll go notify the patrol officer on the scene."

Conan finally noticed the strange gazes of Shirakawa Shiki, Nakano Omaru and others, and when he was about to speak, he quickly changed his words.
