Chapter 747: My account was stolen again!
Yuanzi half tilted her head to make it easier for the makeup artist to put on her makeup. Seeing Xiaolan and the others at the door, she raised her hand and said hello: "Xiaolan, you are here. Wait a minute. I will be there soon."
"Yuanzi, you look so beautiful today! You look so generous and elegant." Xiaolan looked around Yuanzi and praised her, "You can put on your makeup slowly, don't worry about us, we can just go to the audience seats by ourselves~"
They were all friends, so Sonoko didn't force herself to be polite. Ever since her sister got married, she had been trained by her parents as an heir, so this press conference needed her and Suzuki Jirokichi to host it together, so she was indeed very busy now: "Then I'll come find you after the press conference~"
The assistant at the side was also very considerate. Seeing Xiaolan and the others were about to leave, he hurried over to lead the way.
Maori Kogoro looked around as he walked, and said with some emotion: "Suzuki Group is really rich. They rented such a large place for the press conference. There are quite a lot of reporters here."
"After all, 'Sunflowers' is a treasure of all mankind." Xiaolan at the side continued, "Sonoko told me before that her family is planning to hold a sunflower exhibition in Japan. The Suzuki Group has invested in building an art gallery in Japan, and plans to collect all the sunflower paintings for exhibition. It is said that they have already discussed with art galleries and individual collectors that store 'Sunflowers' in various places. This press conference is to announce this news."
"Oh? Doesn't that mean we can see all the Sunflowers in Japan?" Kogoro Mori couldn't help but marvel at the big investment of the Suzuki Group.
As they were talking, they had already walked to the main venue hall. At this time, many reporters had gathered below the press conference booth. Since Chu Ming and his friends were specially invited by Yuanzi, they were taken by the assistant to a seat on the side and waited for the press conference to begin.
Chu Ming clearly saw Kuroba Kaito's name in the focus list of his system interface. He looked in the direction of the focus and saw a figure wearing a baseball cap hiding in the crowd. Sure enough, Kidd also arrived on time.
Um? ?
Isn’t that right???
Chu Ming came back to his senses. Lafitte had clearly told him before that the appraiser would come in the name of Kidd to destroy the painting, but he didn't tell him that the real Kidd would also come? ? ?
Facing the fake Kidd is not the same as facing the real Kidd. You can tell that this guy is not reliable at all!!
You have to pay more!
Chu Ming took out his cell phone and began to condemn Lafitte for his inadequate intelligence work.
[Noon is not the boss]: Where is your source of information? You said you would steal the painting under the name of Kidd, so how come I saw the real Kidd at the press conference?
Lafitte had been paying close attention to Chu Ming's news during this period, fearing that he would miss some key information and cause his sunflower to fly away. When he saw the message sent by Chu Ming, he was also confused.
How could he know such a thing?
But he reacted quickly and asked back with confidence.
[How do you know I'm going to have Sunflower soon]: I paid you such a high price to go to the site, isn't it to prevent emergencies like this! Otherwise, why would I spend this money!
Seeing Lafitte speak so toughly, Chu Ming turned off his phone in embarrassment. Lafitte was much smarter now and he failed to blackmail him this time. Alas, there was one less easy-to-cheat person in the organization.
While Chu Ming was tapping away on his phone, the press conference had already begun.
Jirokichi Suzuki was speaking on the stage at the time, announcing that the Suzuki Group was going to hold an art exhibition in Japan. He also said that in order to ensure the safety of the borrowed paintings, he had specially invited seven experts to protect the safety of the paintings.
You don't have to worry about storage, transportation or security.
As he spoke, Suzuki Jirokichi pointed at the six people beside him and introduced them to the reporter one by one: "First, there is Ms. Miyadai Natsumi who is in charge of the history and appraisal of the paintings. Next, the one next to her is..."
A reporter asked: "Didn't you say you invited seven experts? But I see there seems to be one person missing on the stage?"
"The six people on the stage will board a plane to New York with me tonight to escort Sunflowers from the New York auction house back to Japan." Suzuki Jiro waved his hand, made an introduction gesture, and pointed in the direction of Chu Ming and his team: "And the last expert is responsible for the relevant security of Sunflowers after it arrives in Japan. He is Japan's most famous detective - Mr. Maori Kogoro!"
Maori Kogoro was confused when he was suddenly called out, but he reacted quickly. When everyone turned to look at him, he stood up and waved to the camera: "┏(＾0＾)┛Hahaha hello everyone, yes, the last one is me, Maori Kogoro, hahaha, don't worry, as long as I, a famous detective, am here, I will definitely ensure the safety of Sunflowers!"
Chu Ming smiled politely and nodded secretly. Sorry, with him here, the safety of the sunflower can definitely be guaranteed, but as for its final destination——
Just as Kogoro Mori was laughing arrogantly and attracting everyone's attention, Chu Ming saw that the focus marked with Kuroba Kaito began to move.
A playing card flew out from the crowd and stuck directly into the wooden floor of the booth.
Kogoro Mouri paused in his laughter, and everyone's eyes were focused on the pattern on the playing card, which was the stick figure that Kidd often used.
Yuanzi's eyes sparkled, she covered her mouth, and there was a suspicious blush on her face: "Is this-is this--"
"Kidka!" Suzuki Jirokichi, who had dealt with Kid many times, shouted out immediately.
Kidd, wearing a baseball cap and holding a nail gun in his hand, slowly walked out of the crowd.
Charlie, the police officer who was brought back from New York by Jiro Suzuki to be in charge of security, stepped forward and stood in front of everyone. He took out a gun from his pocket and pointed it at Kidd: "Drop the gun in your hand! Put your hands up!"
Kidd looked very obedient. He slowly raised the hand holding the gun and pulled the trigger directly. A long hook shot out from the muzzle, firmly attached to the ceiling of the room, and then carried Kidd into the air.
Chu Ming looked at the new equipment that Kidd took out again. Although it was a bit fancy, it was still practical. He would ask the equipment department to make something similar.
Kidd was like a nimble cat. With the help of the nail gun, he dodged left and right in the hall and quickly rushed outside. After moving up and down, he stood in front of a floor-to-ceiling window in the corridor.
Conan followed Charlie closely in the chase, while Chu Ming leisurely followed the focus up and down. The straight line was indeed the shortest distance between two points. Chu Ming was obviously the last one to go out, but because of the route he took, he was the first one to catch up with Kidd.
Following closely behind was Charlie, who had been holding a gun. He ignored Chu Ming and pointed the gun at Kidd's back: "You can't run away anymore, throw away the gun, Kidd!"
Kidd turned his back to Charlie, raised the corner of his mouth slightly, and dropped the gun in his hand. At the same time the gun fell to the ground, a smoke bomb was also thrown to the ground.
Charlie looked at the gradually spreading fog and fired directly at the position where Kidd had just been.
"Charlie! Stop!" Suzuki Jirokichi also caught up with him, panting. Seeing Charlie shooting wildly, he quickly stopped him, "Where's Kidd?"
When the fog cleared, Charlie stood at the window and watched Kidd, who had already spread his glider and flown away. He angrily stuffed the gun back into the gun bag: "Damn it, he got away!"
Chu Ming looked at the focus that was still quite close, and glanced over there imperceptibly. Gone? I'm afraid not...
Conan also stood by the window, looking at Kidd who had turned around the opposite high-rise building and disappeared, with a frown on his face. Kidd always only stole gems, so why did he suddenly set his eyes on "Sunflowers" this time?
And the only thing he has is the exact same outfit, so is that really Kidd?
Could it be that someone wants to use Kidd's name...
"It's okay. I will catch that thief one day!" Suzuki Jiro patted Charlie on the shoulder and warned him, "Although Kidd is a thief who is hateful, don't shoot casually next time. This--"
"Have you encountered any difficulties?" A clear voice sounded. Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw a tall figure walking towards them against the light with a confident smile on his face. "Do you need my help?"
Xiaolan stared at the figure of the person who came, then turned her head to look at Conan who was looking up in a daze, and once again doubted her guess.
"Shin-Shinichi...?"
Conan pressed his hands hard against the glass of the floor-to-ceiling window, and his teeth were about to break.
Kaitou Kidd! ! !
You stole my account again!!!
I was so worried that someone was impersonating you, but I didn't expect that my own home was robbed in the blink of an eye!!!
