Mao Lilan and Kudo Shinichi entered the building together.
After their figures disappeared into the elevator, two more shadows, one tall and one short, came over.
Haiyuan Ai pushed up the plain glasses on the bridge of her nose, raised her head and glanced at this luxurious building, and breathed a sigh of relief: "She is quite good at choosing places."
As far as she knew, this was not a place that organization cadres liked to go, and the possibility of encountering Gin was reduced.
Next to him, the organization cadre who loved to go everywhere lowered his hand and patted the defecting organization cadre who was distracted: "Let's go, it's dinner time, we should go in to eat."
Hui Yuan Ai nodded, and the two of them entered the hall side by side.
Not long after, another figure walked over behind them.
Kuroba Kaito pushed the baseball cap on his head and looked up at the building. He estimated the approximate height, and then looked at another tall tower that was vaguely visible in the distance.
"Should we start from the roof of this building tonight, or should we go directly to squat on the roof of Tokyo Tower?" The dedicated Phantom Thief scratched his hat and got entangled, "The distance is a little far, and the wind direction is not good, but it is an escape plan.
It's not bad... I happen to still have some time, so let's go to the top of the building and have a look first. If it works, we'll treat it as plan B. If it doesn't, we'll treat it as a sightseeing trip."
He walked into the hall pretending to be an ordinary guest and walked all the way to the top. On the way, Kuroba Kaito rummaged through his pocket and took out a small piece of paper as long as his knuckles.
This is what he found on the gem after he stole it last time.
On this mini teaser letter, someone wrote in very Phantom Thief style language:
[Kaitou Kidd, it’s my turn to appear next.
I will seal the gem in your hand on a spotless pile head on Saturday night when the moon comes late, and repay the grudges of 18 years ago at once.]
"No matter how many times I watch it, it's still confusing." Kuroba Kaito frowned, "The time and place are easy to answer, but what was the grudge 18 years ago... Could this person be targeting his predecessor?
Is this from Kaitou Kidd?"
Although things seem a bit strange, Kuroba Kaito is still here. Just as a commission letter stuffed with cash can definitely recruit a high school detective, a confusing notice letter can also definitely fish out a high school phantom thief.
In addition, the last Kidd was his father who was suspected to have passed away. The matter was related to him, so there was no way he would not come.
After re-reading the poorly written notice letter, Kuroba Kaito put it away and continued to rush to the top of the building.
…
The rooftop restaurant.
The gorgeous hall is grand and grand. There are not many guests at this time. Occasionally, business people dressed in formal clothes walk by in twos and threes.
Mao Lilan looked at these social elites, then at herself and Kudo Shinichi, who had completely different styles of painting, and couldn't help but feel a little uncomfortable: "Why did you choose such a high-end hotel? It's just dinner, just have something to eat."
Kudo Shinichi stretched himself comfortably: When he was "Conan", under the attention of his two guardians, he couldn't spend too much. Now that he has become a high school student after a long time, of course he has to enjoy it.
.And this hotel has special meaning to him, and the consumption level is secondary.
Thinking of this, Kudo Shinichi smiled generously: "My dad's card is in vain if you don't use it."
Hui Yuan Ai, who was eavesdropping from a distance: "..." The prodigal son.
While she was thinking, she ordered all the dishes on the menu that Jiang Xia had glanced at a few times: It just so happened that a few new patents had been sold recently, and this hotel tasted really good. It was a rare trip, and you had to taste everything that should be tasted.
One taste.
…
At another table, Mao Lilan also expressed the same emotion: "You are so filial."
Kudo Shinichi heard what she was saying and snorted: "There are a pair of kind parents who left their son alone and went abroad to live happily. What's wrong with me being more filial?"
Mao Lilan was very happy to hear this: "You look so much like Conan. That child's parents have also gone abroad."
Kudo Shinichi: "..."
Kudo Shinichi closed his mouth, cold sweat quietly broke out.
He stretched out his hand stiffly and dragged the menu aside: "Well, order! Yes, let's order first!"
When Kudo Shinichi carefully avoided the deadly minefield.
In the distance, in a dim corridor.
Three social animals surrounded a pot-bellied president, and the four of them walked to the VIP-only elevator together.
One of them asked in surprise: "You won't attend today's cocktail party?"
"Well." The president twirled his mustache, "I suddenly feel unwell. You can give me the speech today."
After saying that, he frowned and glanced at his ceiling: "The light here is broken? Why is the light so dark?"
The tall minister quickly explained in a low voice: "This is specially tuned like this for today's performance."
"Oh!" The president remembered it belatedly and smiled mysteriously, "Okay, I'll leave that to you."
After saying that, he pressed the button and the elevator door opened with a bang.
After the three people bowed to each other, the president strolled in. He pressed the door close button and the elevator door closed again.
As the light in the corridor dimmed again, the three social beasts breathed a sigh of relief: although the president was often good-tempered, staying with his boss was always stressful.
Now that the source of stress is gone, the three of them plan to leave separately and go about their own business.
At this moment, with a series of crisp clicks, a beautiful young lady trotted towards them on high heels.
"I seem to be late." Sakurako Tatsuki looked at her watch and asked apologetically, "Where is the venue today?"
"Miss Sakurako?" Everyone in the community knows the president's daughter.
Just as the father left, his daughter came back. They didn't want to neglect her, so they gestured in the direction of the restaurant: "It's the Italian restaurant over there."
"That's it." Tatsumi Sakurako suddenly saw the minister next to her, and she said hello in surprise, "Mr. Ohba!"
Her eyes were almost glued to each other, and the other two people looked at each other and said goodbye very sensibly: "There is still some work at the venue, so we will leave first."
Minister Oba nodded to them politely: "Okay, I will go there as soon as possible."
The two middle-aged social workers turned and walked away.
After they left completely, Sakurako Tatsumi happily ran towards Ohba Satoru: "Here I come!"
"You're late." Ohba Satoru sighed and raised his hand to look at his watch, "Didn't we agree to meet here at 8:30 at the latest?"
"Sorry, sorry." Tatsumi Sakura winked cutely, "You know, every time I see you I want to dress up better, so I spend a little more time."
"..." Ohba Satoru remained unmoved, still looking dissatisfied with her being late.
