Conan: Life between Green Plum and Skyfall

Chapter 217 Kaito's Disdain

"Eh? Conan...Ah, sorry, Shinichi, long time no see. I got a little too excited."

When Conan called her, Xiaolan finally reacted and recalled what she had just done. Her face turned red.

"No, it's okay."

Kaito looked at the girl in front of him with some fear, and took two steps back imperceptibly. Only after he retreated behind Conan did he feel a little relieved.

Seeing Xiaolan finally leave, he breathed a sigh of relief, then looked at Conan:

"Speaking of which, little brat, did you forget to tell your childhood sweetheart that I was pretending? She almost beat me to death!"

"Don't worry, Xiaolan can still control her strength. Even if you get hit by a punch, you'll only feel pain. You won't die!"

"Is this a matter of life or death? If I get hit by one, I'll lose half my life right here!"

Kaito shrank back in fear. If he had known this earlier, he wouldn't have used this identity!

Although it is somewhat inappropriate to treat someone else's main account as your own private account, you can't ask him to protect you from this life-and-death crisis for this reason!

"Don't worry, Xiaolan is still very careful about the degree, I think..."

Looking at Ran, who was huddled with Sonoko, and recalling those pitiful creatures in heaven, Conan's face was filled with uncertainty. He was now beginning to consider whether he should change back.

Living here as a child, he can still use cute tactics to stop Xiaolan from using violence against him. However, if he appears in front of Xiaolan as an adult, he is really afraid that he will be beaten to death!

"you......"

Kaito's heart surged with uncertainty as he saw Conan's uncertain eyes. No, you're really using him as a scapegoat!

While the two were discussing, Officer Chamu had already started his long speech on the stage, and even suggested that the guests should form pairs and come up with a secret code that only they knew.

"Oh? Interesting, little detective. Want to come up with a code with me?"

Listening to Chaki's speech on the stage, Kaito had a smile on his face.

If he were not present now, this would indeed be a good way to deal with him. However, he has already mixed in with the guests. If he decides on the secret code now, wouldn't it actually clear him of suspicion?

Thinking of this, Kaito looked at Conan beside him.

"Don't even think about it. I already know you're gay... You're already fighting, and I'm still giving you a codeword? I'm not that boring!"

Conan looked around bored and directly rejected Kaito's invitation.

If it was Xiaolan or Xiaoai who wanted to make a secret code with him, he wouldn't mind playing with them, but forget it for Kidd.

"Come on, let's decide on a code word. For example, I'll say Robin Hood..."

"Then I'll take Kuroba Kaito."

"???"

After hearing Conan's words, Kaito's smile froze slightly. No, you think his identity isn't hidden well enough, and he's not exposed fast enough, right?

"Then I say Moriarty..."

"I'm talking about Kuroba Kaito."

"? Then I say Lupin..."

"I still say Kuroba Kaito."

Looking at Conan with a provocative look on his face, Kaito felt like his mentality was about to explode!

"Can you please change it? Why do you always have to use my name?"

"So, grilled fish?"

"...Forget it. I think there's no need to play with something as childish as a code."

After hearing what Conan said, Kaito was silent for a while, and finally gave up the idea of ​​making a secret code with Conan.

Are you kidding? Either his name is Fish. This is targeting him deliberately!

While the two were discussing, the lights suddenly went out.

"Hahaha! No matter what code words you use, it's useless because the Dark Star is already in my hands!"

As the voice fell, a white figure appeared on the roof. In his hand, a dark star was floating there quietly.

"Am I usually that showy?"

Looking at the showy figure in the sky, Kuaidou's mouth twitched. Except when performing magic tricks and needing to mobilize other people's emotions, he should be a very humble and low-key person in other days... right?

"What do you say?"

After hearing Kaito's shameless remarks, Conan glared at him angrily. "You? You're even more showy than Sanada Kazuzo when you're performing!"

"What a rude and troublesome thief!"

At this moment, Tomoko Suzuki took out a pistol from her bag and shot at Kidd in the sky. In an instant, Kidd in the sky seemed to be really hit. His whole body was covered with blood and he slowly slid down from the sky.

"It's a fake magic trick, and it still relies on the cooperation of outsiders. This is a superficial magician."

Watching the two's performance, Kaito complained with disdain.

In his eyes, this trick was so crude and outrageous! It was only because Mrs. Suzuki suddenly fired that people couldn't react for a while.

If the guests present had taken notice, this little trick wouldn't have fooled anyone.

"How dare you criticize them? Isn't that what you do when you perform? You use the environment, your emotions, and the added bonus of sleight of hand."

"So what? I perform big scenes!"

Kaito said with a proud look on his face.

At this moment, Sanada Ichizo, whose identity was revealed, had already begun his card magic show. Seeing this, Kaito patted Conan on the shoulder:

"Brother, I'm leaving this up to you! Go ahead and give this magician a good slap in the face!"

"?"

After hearing Kaito's request, Conan slowly typed a question mark.
