Fujiko Mine and Judy Scott sat together and raised their glasses. Then Fujiko Mine smiled and said: "Congratulations, Judy. You successfully won the lawsuit and made your pervert boss pay compensation."
A lot of money..."
"Well, yes!" Judy smiled slightly, "But the money is too little, not enough..."
"That's right! Isn't Lupine helping us find the treasure?" Fujiko Mine smiled charmingly, "After he finds the treasure, he will definitely contact me immediately. Then we will join hands and take the gold as our own, naturally.
There will be money..."
"Yeah, that's true."
Judy nodded, then suddenly looked at the small TV in the bar, watching the real-time news program being played on it, and couldn't help but be slightly startled:
"Fujiko, you're watching TV... isn't that Mr. Lupine's Mercedes?"
Fujiko Mine also turned around and saw a news reporter holding a microphone and pointing at a row of cars behind him that were emitting black smoke. He kept saying "Bala, bala," and Lupine III's Mercedes was among them.
"It's really his car..."
Fujiko Mine narrowed her eyes, and Judy couldn't help but feel a little worried: "Mr. Lupine...could something happen to him?"
"Haha! You are overthinking, that guy is not that easy to get into trouble." Mine Fujiko chuckled, "His life is tough!"
At the same time, in front of the viaduct entrance.
Lupine III and Daisuke Jigen leaned on the guardrail of the roadside, smoking together, and then Lupine III smiled and said: "The book "The Ransom of the Romanov Dynasty" I put in the car is missing - look
It seems that Lucky and the others’ target should be that book!”
"Well, it's such a popular book!" Daisuke Jigen complained, "It's hard to imagine that such a popular book didn't become a bestseller in the first place?"
"Well... Jigen, you are getting more and more sense of humor." Lupine III had a smile on his face, "However, these two guys actually caused such a big mess just to grab a book. They are really on the run.
Disciple!"
"Desperado? Who isn't?"
Daisuke Jigen took a puff of his cigarette nonchalantly, and then blew out a series of smoke rings. Lupine III suddenly asked: "By the way, by the way, what has Goemon been busy with lately?"
"He! He recently found a place to comprehend the true meaning of life." Daisuke Jigen replied, "The location seems to be near the Gate of Hell on the Kola Peninsula in Russia."
"Uh... This really seems like something he would do." Lupine III laughed dryly, "Forget it, this time the matter is not difficult anyway, so I won't ask him for help..."
Lupine III finished speaking and threw away the cigarette butt in his hand:
"Let's go! Let's find a place to decipher the code..."
…
Japan, Tokyo.
At five o'clock in the afternoon, inside the Mori Detective Agency in Yoneka Town.
Conan was sitting on the sofa reading a book. He sat up with a "Ah!" and asked in surprise: "You said Brother Yunwen is going to Russia in a few days? Is it true?"
"Of course it's true. This is what Yunwen said himself." Xiaolan replied with a smile while cleaning, "I heard from Yuanzi that Yunwen seems to be going to Russia to visit the parents of senior Hosaka...
…”
"What? Hosaka Hideaki's parents?"
Conan was stunned when he heard this, and immediately remembered who Hideaki Hosaka was, and couldn't help but sigh: "...I didn't expect that Brother Yunwen is quite caring! All his previous friends have passed away, and he would still run away like this.
Going to visit his parents from afar..."
"Uh... maybe?"
Xiaolan narrowed her eyes and smiled, then laughed twice——
By the way, when Sonoko told her before, she also mentioned that the ghost of Hideaki Hosaka was also coming, but Xiaolan considered that Conan didn't believe it at all, so she briefly mentioned it...
After Xiaolan finished speaking, she sat at the table and watched TV. Uncle Maori, who was drinking beer, curled his lips and said: "That kid, he lived a leisurely life... huh? Is Kidd going to take action again?"
"What?"
When Conan and Xiaolan heard this, they turned to look at Uncle Maori.
Uncle Maori turned the TV in the direction of Conan and Xiaolan, and at the same time amplified the volume and said: "Watch for yourselves - at ten o'clock in the morning local time in Moscow, the Moscow Metropolitan Hotel where the Russian jewelry art exhibition will be held will be received.
Kaitou Kidd’s card said that he wanted to use the eyes of the statues at the exhibition to see it. Now the Moscow police have launched an operation, and they also said that they would invite some foreign police officers with experience in investigating Kidd’s case to assist..."
"Eye of the Statue?" Xiaolan was slightly startled when she heard the name, "What is that?"
After Xiaolan finished speaking, Conan immediately replied: "The eye of the statue is a flat pear-shaped diamond, the size of an egg. Because of its carved shape, its appearance looks like a big bright eye, so it has such a name.
.It weighs 70.2 carats, and legend has it that it was given by the Kashmiri chief as a 'ransom' to the Turkish Sultan who blackmailed Princess Rasha Taha!"
"As far as I know, this diamond has changed hands several times. It should now be in the hands of Philippine President Ferdinand Marquez. Now it is being exhibited at an exhibition... Is this changing hands again?"
Conan frowned, while Xiaolan and Uncle Maori looked shocked and asked in disbelief: "Conan, how do you know this?"
"Well……"
Conan smiled awkwardly, then scratched his head and said, "I, I saw it on TV before and thought it was interesting, so I wrote it down!~"
"Um, really?"
Xiaolan was a little suspicious, but Uncle Maoli curled his lips and said: "This kid... knows how to memorize things all day long! Also, you watch too much TV, and you need to read more books in the future, do you understand?"
"Uh... Got it." Conan nodded.
…
At 5:30 in the afternoon, Shu Yunwen’s home in Mihua Town.
In the bedroom where "Heaven's Punishment" was hung, Shu Yunwen looked at Chengshi and Mingmei who were nourished in the painting, nodded slightly and said: "Chengshi, Mingmei, your two souls are entrusted in "Heaven's Punishment".
So you can't leave "Heaven's Punishment" for too long - with the current strength of the two of you, it's okay to leave "Heaven's Punishment" for a week, but after a long time, the ghost body will easily weaken..."
"...So, you two should stay in "Heavenly Punishment" for a while in the past two days and try your best to warm up the ghost body..."
"Okay, Lord Yunwen!"
Chengshi, Mingmei responded, and Loli Ai next to her couldn't help but ask: "Exorcist, what will happen to this "Heavenly Punishment" if we leave? What if someone breaks in and steals it?
Or if we destroy "Heavenly Punishment"..."
"Well... don't worry!~" Shu Yunwen smiled slightly, "I have already contacted Ms. Eriko Yunichi, and she will help us look after the house when we leave!"
"That's good." Loli'ai nodded, "But I think it's better for you to say hello to the witch and ask her to help take care of it. This will be safer."
