"Really? How could a kid from a wealthy family have ever seen the methods of that thief?" Inspector Nakamori scratched his head helplessly.
Although Jirokichi Suzuki upgraded his own safe, the plane crash was reported by the media, and many collectors were worried that their paintings would be damaged during transportation, and they began to hesitate about borrowing paintings that they had originally agreed to.
However, that is what Suzuki Jirokichi should worry about. Maori Kogoro is still obsessed with horse racing.
However, Kogoro Mouri received a bunch of strange letters. It happened that Conan was dragged to the art museum by the three little ones at this time and missed the Kidd card.
Maori Kogoro unfolded the letter and read the contents to Xiaolan: "Tonight, I will go to receive the first copy of the painting on the left side of the lullaby."
"Damn it, this guy Kidd hasn't given up yet!" Kogoro Mouri gritted his teeth while holding the letter, and immediately asked Xiaolan to contact Inspector Nakamori.
At the meeting at the Suzuki family, photographers and painters were also present, and Suzuki Jirokichi was using a large screen to show his special anti-Kid device.
"As you all know, due to that accident, the Sunflower collectors suddenly changed their minds and are reluctant to lend their paintings to us for the exhibition. So, to regain their lost trust, I've decided to install a security system specifically designed to counter Kidd at the exhibition mine, Klock."
"I will adopt the plan proposed by Ms. Xia Mei last night and use a large number of sunflowers as decoration in the museum to cover up the surveillance cameras we installed."
"On the other hand, I would like to thank Mr. Melody for his willingness to lobby those collectors to ensure the smooth holding of my exhibition, so that they can regain their confidence in our Suzuki Foundation's security system."
The photographer smiled and said, "It's just a small favor, Mr. Suzuki. After all, it's a rare spectacle to have all the sunflower paintings on display together. It would be a shame if they couldn't bloom because of a little thief."
Next, Suzuki Jirokichi began to solicit suggestions for rectification from others. When he asked Officer Charlie, Officer Charlie obviously had a lot of opinions about Kaito Kid.
"That guy calls himself a phantom thief, but he's actually a murderer who'll do anything to achieve his goal. No, it's more accurate to say he's a terrorist."
Seeing her idol being slandered, Sonoko couldn't help herself. She slammed the table and stood up: "What nonsense are you talking about here? It's not confirmed that the plane explosion was caused by Kidd!"
"Excuse me, but I'd like to remind you that who else would blow up the plane besides Kidd? And what's their purpose?"
Officer Charlie's questioning left Yuanzi helpless and speechless.
At this time, Inspector Nakamori also called Suzuki Jirokichi and informed him about Kidd's notice letter.
"That copy of the painting to the left of the Lullaby, isn't that the one on the left of the triptych?"
"The first copy?"
"That's the fifth sunflower, right?"
Suzuki Jirokichi listened to the discussion at the conference table and said, "So, that sunflower painting is the one at the Sun Bao Nipponkoa Art Museum, right?"
At this time, Conan, Huiyuan, Professor Agasa and the three little ones are visiting the art museum. Conan wants to find out why Kid is interested in things other than gems.
However, Conan, who was strolling in the museum, saw an unexpected person. The entomologist was actually here, and she looked like she was waiting for someone.
"Aunt Meili, why are you here?"
"Oh, it's Conan. I'm waiting for someone here. That person wants to talk to me about something important."
"Really? But that person is really strange. He actually made an appointment to meet someone in the art museum." Conan scratched his head.
"So what are you doing here, Conan? Are you here for a tour?"
"Well, there's Van Gogh's fifth Sunflower. Kid seems to have made it his goal, so I came here to find out what's going on."
The entomologist chuckled. "Haha, so it's that thief Campbell threatened. Hasn't he always targeted valuable jewelry? Why is he suddenly interested in these paintings this time?"
"That's the strange thing..." Conan just finished answering and then realized that the entomologist just said that the explorer had threatened Kaito Kid. When did this happen?
But before he could ask in detail, he was swept away by the three little ones who came over: "Conan, let's go see the sunflowers!"
Conan was directly dragged away by Genta and Mitsuhiko. Curious about who the entomologist was going to meet, Conan only had time to stuff a bug into the entomologist's pocket.
[Entomologist: Haha, this kid, is he really that curious about this matter?]
[Explorer: I'm impressed. I even made a bet with Orpheus that he wouldn't do that.]
[Philanthropist: Norton, you're so foolish! How could you bet with Orpheus? You should bet with me. I'm betting that Conan's big head is full of courage.]
[Explorer: Go, go, go.]
[Novelist: I accept defeat.]
[Composer: What did you two bet on?]
[Explorer: The loser has to sweep the floor for a week.]
[Prisoner: It’s only been a week.]
[Explorer: Just wait and see if he does anything bad while I'm cleaning.]
[Composer: Then he is a bad guy.]
The three little ones leaned against the window and looked at the sunflower painting: "Wow, what's so great about this painting?"
Conan held his forehead and said, "You three should be quiet here, otherwise you will be kicked out."
There happened to be an old lady sitting here admiring the painting. She kept looking at the painting with a smile and didn't care too much about the disturbance from the crowd.
At this time, a large group of people suddenly came to the art museum, led by Inspector Nakamori, Jirokichi Suzuki and Kogoro Mori.
Conan was just about to step forward and ask what was going on when a chill ran down his spine. Based on this intuition, he paused slightly.
Sure enough, there was a Jack (Black Bone) mixed in with the crowd. He looked very strange in his purple dress and bone decorations, but he also had a unique gentleman charm.
"Gentlemen, I have an appointment here. It's up to you officers to stop Kidd. I'll be leaving first."
After saying this, Jack turned around and left the main group, while Kogoro Mouri saw Conan approaching.
"Why are you here, little brat?"
Suzuki Jirokichi pointed at Conan and said, "Conan, since you are here, come with us, Kidd's nemesis."
"Kid? What's going on?" Conan turned back to look at the sunflower painting. "Could it be..."
"That's right, Kidd's next target is this fifth sunflower."
After asking Haibara not to tell the children about this, Conan left with the group. On the way to the meeting room, he heard a noise in his earphone. It was the sound of the bug he had just placed in the entomologist's pocket.
"It's been a long time since we last met, Ms. Ndlovu. You are still as dazzling as a black mandala flower."
"The flower language is love and revenge... You're really good at picking. Is this because you spent some time on Bearstein Island?"
