Chapter 560 (4k) Napoleon: mmp
Although Kuroba Kaito could use escape magic to get rid of Mori Kogoro's grip, he felt guilty and was afraid that if he used it, people would find out that he was not Martin/Kudo Shinichi.
As a result, when he was almost fainted by Maori Kogoro, he was saved by Nakamori Ginzo, which made Kuroba Kaito deeply realize that his father-in-law is still the best.
"If you dare to tease me, Maori Kogoro again, I will never show mercy next time!"
As he spoke, Maori Kogoro felt something was wrong. Why was the face-changing kid so weak this time? Wouldn't he have broken free long ago? I had even thought of a counter-attack.
Ginzo Nakamori thought that Kogoro Mori was jealous of each other because they were in the same industry. Plus, he was the one who brought Kudo Shinichi here, so he immediately started to protect him and started arguing with Kogoro Mori again.
The two old boys didn't stop competing until the actors were ready to go on stage.
"Wait a minute, in order to verify whether Kaito Kid will disguise himself and sneak among you, everyone must pinch their face hard." Ginzo Nakamori said to the actors who were about to go on stage.
Actress Makishuri is going to wear the sapphire 'Gem of Destiny' that is targeted by Kaito Kid on her body to perform in a stage play, so the most important thing to be on guard against right now is that Kaito Kid will steal the gem during the performance, because only during the performance, the police will not be able to get close to Makishuri and the gem on the stage in time.
But when they heard that they were going to pinch their faces, all the stage actors and several makeup artists changed their expressions.
"No, officer. If you pinch your face, your makeup will be ruined." The troupe leader said quickly.
One of the makeup artists also nodded: "It's really too late to touch up now."
"That's right." Kuroba Kaito, who was pretending to be Martin disguised as Kudo Shinichi, also nodded: "What if the mask is broken - I don't mean Kaito Kid's mask, I mean the mask that the lady made with foundation, hehe..."
Kuroba Kaito felt that if it were Martin, he would make a joke at this time, such as making fun of the actress for wearing too thick makeup.
Of course, this meaningless joke did not cause any response. They were more concerned about the issue of whether to pinch the face or not.
Just as Nakamori Ginzo was about to accuse them of not being able to tell which was more important, performing five shows in three days or catching Kaito Kid once every five days, Maori Kogoro interrupted their argument:
"No need, I have cracked Kaito Kid's code!" Maori Kogoro said proudly: "And according to my reasoning, Kaito Kid is not here now!"
Kuroba Kaito, who was very interested just now, now had the same dead fish eyes as Conan, and the two brothers thought the same thing: Your reasoning is wrong again.
But having been cheated once, Nakamori Ginzo believed in Maori Kogoro again and asked, "What's the plan?"
"Come closer and listen." Kogoro Mori whispered his brilliant plan to defeat the enemy in Nakamori Ginzo's ear.
Conan looked up and found that Kuroba Kaito was not interested in Maori Kogoro's plan at all, and he just walked out.
Isn't Kaito Kid worried about his uncle's plan at all? Even if his uncle's reasoning and interpretation of the code are definitely wrong, isn't he afraid of a blind cat catching a dead mouse?
Conan felt that his attitude was not right, so he simply followed him out.
"Hey, do you want to be my little follower, great detective?" Kuroba Kaito asked in a mocking tone.
"Yeah, no matter what tricks you have, I just need to keep a close eye on you." Conan said. He felt that Kaito Kid's direct attack on his face was not a wise move.
"You actually used such an aesthetically awful method. Where is your pursuit as a detective?" Kuroba Kaito looked down on him: "Now you are not even as good as a nitpicking critic."
"I wanted to do that too, but the code you gave this time was so bad. I don't understand what you want to do, so this is the only option I can use." Conan sneered.
Kuroba Kaito walked all the way to the audience and sat in the seat reserved by the troupe for Maori Kogoro and the police. "Just because you don't understand, you say my code is bad? Isn't that too much?"
In fact, it is not surprising that Conan could not understand the code, because Kuroba Kaito decided to steal the gems not now, but on the plane from Tokyo to Sapporo after Makiri's performance.
Part of the content of the secret code uses aviation code, so it is normal that Conan cannot associate it with it unless he gets on the plane.
As for Kuroba Kaito, since he had no intention of stealing gems here, why did he come anyway? First, to scout the area, second, to tease Conan, and third, to show up and then pretend to have failed in the theft and leave, so that they would let down their guard.
……
A winged spaceship flying in the sky with the help of propellers is approaching the sky above the Rice Flower Theater from the sky, while the busy people on the ground who are bending over to live have not yet noticed that a huge monster is hovering over their heads.
On the spaceship, Grummartin crossed his legs and drank an ice cola, and even the job of flying the spaceship was handed over to the Minions.
"Chiliguala, kakadada!" The Minions driving the spaceship told him that they were already hovering over the Popcorn Theater.
"Very good." Martin snapped his fingers and arranged the tasks: "Maggie, open the ground hatch; Lisa, deploy the grabber; Maggie, be responsible for opening the ceiling; Houmo, pinch Bart's neck... Oh, you don't have a neck."
After a large claw machine gripper that could replicate the nightmare of pure black was lowered, Grummartin directly grabbed the cable of the gripper and rappelled down in an elegant posture.
……
The stage play "Josephine" was about to come to an end. Kuroba Kaito and Conan yawned in unison with 100% synchronization. It was obvious that young people nowadays do not agree with this art form.
"The highlight of this stage play is the two uncles playing the prime minister and the judge, right?" commented Kuroba Kaito.
Kogoro Mori obviously believed that Kaito Kid would be on the stage, and he and Ginzo Nakamori became extras in this opera without lines. They only needed to follow behind the king, Napoleon, at all times.
"Well... classical art." Conan couldn't bring himself to disparage an art form, but it was also true that he couldn't get into this play, so he could only change the subject: "To be fair, the stage play at our high school festival was more interesting, and it would have been even better if I wasn't the protagonist."
"You, the protagonist? Showing off?" Kuroba Kaito thought Conan was showing off to him that he was playing the protagonist in a stage play.
Huh? Would I be envious?
"How is that possible? How can I act like this?" Conan rolled his eyes.
"Didn't you grow bigger?"
At the magician enthusiasts' gathering, Conan, who had a cold, played the magic trick of changing size at will. It was also at that time that Kuroba Kaito learned about the existence of a "brother" who looked very similar to him.
"That's a special case, it can't be used casually."
Conan didn't want to explain his own affairs too clearly. Kuroba Kaito noticed this and changed the subject: "So? What's the story behind that interesting stage play you mentioned?"
Conan sighed: "The name of the stage play is 'Kudo Shinichi's Funeral'."
"Pfft..." Kuroba Kaito immediately understood how Conan became the protagonist without being able to appear in person. Of course he is the protagonist, the dead are the greatest. "Martin's idea?" As a high school student, Kuroba Kaito didn't think that Teitan's classmates could come up with such a wild idea.
"Who else?" Conan continued to sigh.
Not only did Martin change the script of their class, he also transformed himself into Michael Jackson (claiming to be a stuntman) and performed on stage. Later, the performance was reported to the real Michael Jackson, and he was sued by his studio for infringement of his portrait rights. However, the matter was blocked by the legal department of Suzuki Sonoko's family, and not many people knew about it.
"Didn't I ask you to go up and act like your son or something?" Kuroba Kaito grinned, feeling that it was not exciting enough.
"I wasn't told in advance at all...but Xiaolan is playing my mother."
"Oh, what a pity! Why didn't you tell me at that time?" Kuroba Kaito felt a little regretful: "Call me too, I can play your father."
"Go to hell, have you found your father?"
"Hey, hey, hey, it's too much to mention this!"
While the two were bantering, Josephine, played by Makuri, was already performing her final lines and dance.
"I say, you really don't plan to do anything?" Conan asked with a hint of urging: "Martin said he also wants to steal the gem."
Kuroba Kaito was actually a little worried about this matter: "Is he serious?"
"Who knows." Conan shrugged: "Seeing through that guy? It's too difficult."
"Well, maybe I should really do something..." Kuroba Kaito thought seriously. If Martin got there first, stealing the gems from Makiri and from Martin would not be a difficult matter, and the risks of a failed theft would also be very different.
But it's embarrassing to steal without following your own code...but the final right to interpret the code belongs to you!
Well, let's put it this way. I'm here to scout the place anyway. Stealing the gem and then seeing if it's Pandora is also called scouting, right? If it's not Pandora, it doesn't matter whether I steal it or not. If it's Pandora, then I won't care about my face.
"But..." Kuroba Kaito dragged out the words and left the question in suspense: "How do you know I didn't do anything?"
Conan was stunned.
Kuroba Kaito continued, "Are you sure I'm really Kaito Kid, little brother?"
As he spoke, Kuroba Kaito looked at the wall in the corner of the theater.
Conan was stunned, then he followed Kuroba Kaito's gaze and found that in the darkness, there was a silhouette of the classic image of Kaito Kid on the wall.
Where is Kidd? Could it be that the person next to him is just an accomplice of Kaito Kidd?
No, even though the auditorium was dimly lit, Conan's tracking glasses were equipped with a night vision function. After turning it on, he could tell at a glance that the silhouette was really just a silhouette, made up of a mop and other debris. Only when viewed from a certain angle could it be the appearance of Kaito Kid.
Then Conan realized that this was a diversionary tactic by Kaito Kidd. When he turned around, Kaito Kidd was gone.
"Heh..." Conan was not in a hurry at all. Go ahead and do it. No, no, no.
It is not clear whether Kaito Kid stole the gems today, but Martin definitely came today.
……
Behind the scenes of the stage.
"It can't be wrong, it's him." As the saying goes, suspect your neighbor of stealing an axe. Kogoro Mori stared at his target, the actor of Napoleon, and the more he looked at him, the more suspicious he became. He did not forget to emphasize this to Ginzo Nakamori.
There are four words at the beginning of Kaito Kid's coded letter: Romeo, Juliet, Winner and Cheers. After reasoning, Kogoro Mori believes that these four words represent time, place and mission. Romeo and Juliet, as a famous drama, represent the stage; the winner is the character, that is, Napoleon; and the final cheers are time - Kaito Kid has to disguise himself as Napoleon and steal the gem amid the audience's cheers.
Then, when the play ended with great applause, the actors lined up to bow and the red curtain slowly fell.
“Go!” Nakamori Ginzo shouted, and a pair of handsome men jumped up at the same time and rushed towards the actor who played Napoleon.
The actor was a young man. When he heard the voice, he subconsciously turned his head to look, but his eyes went dark and he was pinned down by Ginzo Nakamori.
Kogoro Mori followed closely behind, holding down Napoleon's hands with one hand, and using the other hand to tear off the makeup of the actor playing Napoleon, but in fact there was nothing on his face except a hand full of foundation.
When the police officers waiting on both sides of the stage saw the inspector taking action, they also rushed forward and took control of the actor playing Napoleon.
"I'm really not Kaito Kid's..." the young actor whose cheek was pinched said vaguely.
"What?" Kogoro Mouri still didn't believe it and turned to look at Makuriya. The jewel ring was indeed still on Makuriya's hand, confirming that it had not been touched.
However, because the male and female protagonists, Makuri and the actor who played Napoleon were standing side by side, when Maori and Kogoro were trying to catch 'Napoleon', they pushed her away and she fell to the ground.
Turning back and seeing Makuri falling to the ground, Kogoro Mori suddenly felt a little scared. If Makuri broke the jewel ring when she fell to the ground, it would be a big disaster.
A young police officer came forward to help Mu Shuli up: "Miss Mu, are you okay?"
"It's okay, thank you." Maki Shuli said as he stood up and slapped the young police officer's hand away.
"Damn it, where did that Kaito Kid go?" Nakamori Ginzo realized that he had made a mistake again and didn't think of blaming Mouri Kogoro. He was just so angry that his teeth were itching.
"Inspector!" A voice came from one of the police officers: "An object resembling Kaito Kidd's hang glider was found outside."
Hearing this, Nakamori Ginzo immediately perked up and shouted: "Let's go, let's catch up!"
However, before the police officers could take any steps, Makuri screamed, "The gem is gone!"
"What!?" Maori Kogoro was the most surprised one besides Maki Juri: "She was here just now! Who approached Miss Juri!?"
Makishuri immediately became alert and looked up: "It's a young police officer!"
Kuroba Kaito, who was about to leave the stage with his back to the crowd, stopped.
