Chapter 79: The Three People Who Skipped Class (Available in Hours, Please Support)
Conan and Tanigawa came to his collection hall.
Because of the publicity for Kaito Kid, many people gathered around, most of them were young people who were just watching the fun and girls who admired Kaito Kid.
"Mr. Tanigawa, do you really not need the assistance of our police?" Officer Nakamori kept chattering beside Tanigawa.
"No need, I have my own security system."
"But Kidd is more difficult to deal with than you think. You can't catch him without the help of the police!"
Tanigawa stopped and looked at Officer Nakamori.
"On the last cruise ship of the Suzuki Group, your police didn't seem to catch Kaito Kid. You also caused the Suzuki family to lose the Dark Star. I don't trust your police."
Officer Nakamori lowered his head unwillingly.
Because the Suzuki Group was humiliated by Kidd last time, the angry Suzuki Group put pressure on the police. If he fails to catch Kidd this time, he will really be suspended.
Tanigawa opened the door of the collection hall, and everything inside had been modified for Kidd.
"Tanigawa, why do you raise so many fish?" Conan asked curiously.
The last time he sneaked into Tanigawa's collection hall, it was in a mess. The collections were placed randomly and no one was organizing them. There was not even a single person guarding the entire collection hall.
But this time, there are many pools in the collection hall, which are filled with various kinds of fish, and Tanigawa's collection is placed in the center of the pool.
Moreover, every corner of the collection hall was guarded by people in uniform, but the uniforms of those people were a little strange, as if they were imitating the attire of the Black Organization.
"I've recently fallen in love with eating fish, and I'm planning to open an aquarium." Open an aquarium and keep Kaito Kid in it.
Do you like eating fish? Open an aquarium?
Aren’t the fish in the aquarium for viewing?
Conan shook his head. Maybe this was a unique habit of the second generation of the chaebol.
……
"Xiaolan, how is your relationship with Tanigawa?"
At Teitan High School, Sonoko asked while holding Xiaolan's arm.
"Ah? It should be okay. Tanigawa is nice to everyone. However, Tanigawa and Conan have a good relationship." Xiaolan said.
"Then how about we skip class and go to Tanigawa's collection hall? Mr. Kidd has issued a notice, saying that he will have a face-to-face confrontation with Mr. Tanigawa! It would be great if the two of them were fighting for me!"
Yuanzi fantasized happily.
Xiaolan smiled awkwardly. Sonoko's nympho personality didn't seem like the daughter of a chaebol family at all.
"It's not good to skip classes." Xiaolan refused.
"Ran, don't you want to meet that guy Kudo Shinichi?" Sonoko tempted.
"Shinichi!?"
"That's right!"
Sonoko stood up and said confidently, "Last time on our Suzuki family's cruise ship, Mr. Kidd disguised himself as you. Kudo Shinichi, as your boyfriend, will definitely go to trouble Mr. Kidd if he knows the news."
"And you said that Shinichi and Mr. Tanigawa also know each other. This time, during the confrontation between Mr. Tanigawa and Mr. Kidd, Shinichi might come back..."
"Suzuki Sonoko!"
The middle-aged female teacher at the podium crushed the chalk in her hand and looked at Yuanzi with anger.
"This is a class, please leave my class right now!"
Yuanzi just realized this problem and ran outside with her face covered to stand in the corner as punishment.
Xiaolan sighed and silently picked up the textbook on the table. Sonoko was really something. When she got excited, she didn't know the situation. "And Xiaolan, who was talking to Sonoko, you get out too!"
Xiaolan also stood up silently and went outside to accompany Yuanzi.
After both of them left the classroom, the middle-aged teacher continued the lesson, "Okay, let's continue the lesson."
Xiaolan stood outside and sighed.
"Xiaolan, since we have been kicked out by the teacher and can't attend the class, why don't we just slip away?" Sonoko encouraged Xiaolan.
"This is not..."
"It's nothing bad. You can apologize to the teacher when you come back. The worst that can happen is that the teacher will scold you. It's worth it just to see Shinichi!"
"..."
……
In Tanigawa's collection hall, Conan is carefully looking at everyone around him.
Kidd didn't say when he would come, so he might have already mixed in with the crowd.
"Tanigawa, did Kid say what he stole this time?" Conan asked.
"The Crystal of the Ocean was salvaged from a ship that sank in the Pacific Ocean for a hundred years. I bought it from an American collector at a high price." Tanigawa said, pointing to the gem in the middle.
Conan looked in the direction that Tanigawa pointed.
It was a pure white gem, which did not seem to have any of the brilliance of precious jewels and looked quite ordinary.
"Conan?"
"Sister Xiaolan?"
Conan was startled by the person in front of him.
Conan seemed a little at a loss, and quickly asked Xiaolan: "Sister Xiaolan, why are you here?"
"I felt that your brother Shinichi might appear here, so I asked Mr. Tanigawa if I could come over, and Mr. Tanigawa agreed." Xiaolan touched Conan's head.
"Really."
Conan turned his head woodenly and looked at Tanigawa, his eyes clearly saying, "Why didn't you tell me in advance that Xiaolan was coming!"
"Mr. Tanigawa, it's so great to see you again." Sonoko excitedly held Tanigawa's hand.
“I’m glad to see you again, too.”
I admit that you are a true fan.
"By the way, Mr. Tanigawa, is Ai left at home alone?" Xiaolan asked curiously.
"No, Ai went to school." Tanigawa touched his head.
Xiaolan's eyes suddenly turned to Conan, and Conan swallowed in fear.
"Conan, didn't you say we have a day off today?" Xiaolan said while twisting Conan's ear.
"It hurts, it hurts! Sister Xiaolan."
Conan kept begging for mercy. After dodging Xiaolan's hand, Conan asked curiously, "Sister Xiaolan, it seems like it's not time for you to go home from school yet?"
Xiaolan blushed instantly and became embarrassed.
What should I do? As a sister, I haven’t set a good example for Conan.
