Edogawa Conan didn't know how many times he tactfully expressed that he didn't want Kuroki Jin to follow him to the castle.
Kuroki was too lazy to pay attention to him. He watched Xiaolan holding down the well-behaved white pigeon with her hands and Haiyuan Ai applying medicine to its surface. He couldn't help but tap the pigeon's head with his fingertips.
This seemed to shock the pigeon. It stamped its paws on the table and wanted to flap its newly bandaged wings. If Mao Lilan hadn't pressed it with her hand, the pigeon would have definitely flown away with its injured wings.
Kuroki raised his hands in embarrassment in an attempt to express that he had done nothing, but Haihara Ai swung his eyes to the bottom of the table.
"Sorry, sorry..." Kuroki Ren could only apologize obediently, and moved closer to Haihara Ai, "Do you need me to hand you something? Scissors?"
Looking at the scissors at hand, Haiyuan Ai glared at him angrily: "Get out."
"Miss Lan, do you want something to drink?" Heimuren looked up with a smile. Mao Lilan, who didn't react much, subconsciously replied with juice, and saw Heimuren turned around and went out.
Conan:???Why didn't you ask me?
"Xiao Ai and Mr. Kuroki have a really good relationship." Mao Lilan thought thoughtfully, "Although Mr. Kuroki has always liked children, I feel that he likes Xiao Ai more."
Conan rolled his eyes wildly, Kuroki Jin does like Haibara Ai, but it's not the same as Xiaolan you think.
Haibara Ai looked at the bandaged pigeon and said in a pertinent tone: "Just like Edogawa prefers Miss Lan."
"Hey——"
"Eh? Do you have Mr. Conan?" Xiaolan smiled softly.
Conan: "..." He felt that the roots of his ears were burning. Looking at the soft face illuminated by the light, he lowered his voice and whispered: "Just... a little... um... yes... um...
”
Jin Kuroki, who came in with a dinner plate, looked at Conan who was down, and tilted his head in confusion, not really understanding what made the great detective look like this.
"Juice, juice, milk..." Kuroki Ren was sharing the drinks when the Coke in front of him was taken away.
"Wait -" Kuroki Ren wanted to reach out to stop him, but a glass of milk that he had just pushed out was stuffed into his hand.
"I'm deficient in calcium after drinking too much Coke. I need to take a supplement." Haiyuan Ai opened the Coke can with one hand, stuffed a straw into it, and took a sip of a drink he didn't usually touch.
"So cruel..." Weak and helpless, Kuroki Ren took out another can of Coke from his pocket, which was even ice-cold. He opened it seriously and raised his head to take a sip.
Hui Yuan Ai: "..."
"Pfft--" Mao Lilan laughed out loud. It was rare to see Haibara Ai, a cold-hearted child, being teased. As expected, Kuroki Ren had to be good at it.
Just when the can in Haiyuan Ai's hand was about to deform, there was a knock on the door of Room 221 where they were resting.
"I'll open the door!" Kuroki Ren ran away without forgetting the Coke in his hand.
"Just come -" Kuroki Jin opened the door with a smile, and faced a camera in his face. He subconsciously thought it was an enemy attack and was about to throw the Coke can in his hand.
Fortunately, at the last moment he saw clearly the person coming. It was Ryu Samkawa, a professional photographer who was invited aboard the ship to go to Yokosuka Castle.
"I captured a good expression." Samchuan Ryuu looked at his camera with a proud face, not paying attention to the feelings of the person being photographed.
"Yeah, thank you for the compliment." Kuroki Jin wiped the coke splashed on the back of his hand and replied with a smile.
Hanchuanlong: "..."
He has taken countless close-ups of people responding to emergencies, but this is the first time he has seen people like Kuroki Jin smiling and politely returning greetings. It always feels... a little scarier than those who angrily rebuke.
Samkawa Ryu maintained his nonchalant appearance, holding up the camera to find the next victim.
Conan's little head popped out and asked doubtfully: "What is he doing?"
Kuroki Jin touched the top of his head with a smile, wiped off the remaining Coca-Cola in his palm, and said softly: "Look for death."
"Huh?" Conan's eyes widened immediately, and just as he was about to ask more questions, he heard Miss Suzuki's voice: "Mr. Kuroki, we are here to play with you."
"Miss Sonoko, and Mr. Nishino and Miss Kasaka." Kuroki Jin greeted with a smile, "Please come in first, I just got some drinks from outside."
Kuroki Ren stepped aside and wanted to go in at the end. Unexpectedly, Mr. Nishino, who was walking in front of him, suddenly changed his face. He covered his mouth and nose, apologized, and hurriedly said goodbye and ran away.
In a panic, I almost bumped into him, but Kuroki Ren reacted quickly and got out of the way, and then looked into the house inexplicably.
1, 2, 3, 4... Too many girls make me shy? Chairman Suzuki’s secretary can’t be so thin-skinned.
"We still need Miss Pu Si Qinglan, I'll invite her over!"
"I'll go with you." Kuroki Ren said with a smile: "Those children seem to be playing there too, and they have been disturbing her for too long."
Kuroki Jin looked for Haibara Ai, and saw the latter comforting the pigeon who was a little frightened due to too many people coming in, so he smiled and waved to Edogawa Conan who was doing nothing.
Conan pointed to himself: "Should I go too?"
"There's so much nonsense!" Suzuki Sonoko rushed over, dragging the person and not forgetting to ask Kuroki Jin to follow her.
Pu Si Qinglan was also attracted by this Easter egg exhibition. She is a researcher from China who specializes in studying the history of the Romanov dynasty.
On the way, Suzuki Sonoko gave Kuroki Jin a brief introduction to the remaining people. In addition to Pu Si Qinglan, there were also the first secretary of the Russian Embassy, Siru Ovchinnikov, and the art dealer General No. 1. There is no doubt that they They all come here for this easter egg.
"After all, it's worth 800 million." Kuroki Jin said with a smile, "But for me who don't know how to do it, I'm afraid it would be a waste of money to get it." 33
"That's right." Yuanzi said, "When I was playing with it when I was a child, I accidentally dropped a part, although it was later confirmed that the part was indeed loose."
Kuroki Ren vaguely twitched the corners of his mouth.
Sorry, even ordinary people, after knowing the price of that thing, I am afraid that no one will throw it around like you, Miss, and play with it for 800 million.
It’s almost the same price if you rob a bank!
"We're here, No. 300, I'm knocking on the door." Suzuki Sonoko knocked on the door, and soon an energetic voice came from inside, but everyone from the Young Detective Team was also in the room.
"I'm causing trouble to Miss Pu Si." Kuromu Ren was a little embarrassed. He brought the child but let others take care of it for so long, even though it was these children who originally wanted to hear Pu Si Qinglan's Chinese adventures. To pester each other.
"It doesn't matter, they are all well-behaved." Pu Siqinglan was wearing a red cheongsam, giving people a sense of intellectual beauty.
Kuroki Jin was startled for a moment, then smiled and touched Ayumi's forehead, who was coming up to him, and said, "That's good."
Suzuki Sonoko explained the purpose of her visit, and Pu Siqinglan was perfectly fine. They returned to room 221, and Kuroki Jin took a slight detour to bring him a cup of coffee.
"Did you bring this for Haibara-san?" Mitsuhiko, with sharp eyes, noticed Kuroki Jin adding sugar and milk to the coffee.
"Well, there are other drinks in the house. I didn't bring her coffee just now. I'm afraid if I don't bring it when I go back this time, Xiao Ai will kick me out."
