Oritis in the world of Detective Conan

Chapter 198 Kaito Kidd and the Red-Faced Mermaid (Part 2)

After a while, Inspector Nakamori came with a loud speaker and started to evacuate the onlookers. Sera noticed him and asked Xiaolan and Sonoko.

Xiaolan explained: "That's Inspector Nakamori from the Second Investigation Division. He seems to be in charge of the Kaito Kid case."

Sonoko also added: "That's right, as long as it's related to Mr. Kidd, he will show up."

Shira laughed: "So, it's that uncle who is always fooled by Kidd."

Inspector Nakamori, who heard the conversation between these people, pinched Sera's face in anger. He mistook Sera for a boy and said, "You little bastard, didn't you hear me? Everyone, except those concerned, get out of here!"

Ran and Sonoko quickly stepped forward to defend Sera, but Sera didn't care: "It doesn't matter, after all, this is the first time I've met this police officer. Besides, he pinched my cheek just now, probably to confirm whether I was pretending to be Kid."

"Right!" As soon as the words fell, Sera kicked Inspector Nakamori right in the heart.

Inspector Nakamori knelt on the ground in agony, sweat pouring down his face. Sera said with a smile, "You're sweating all over. This means you're not pretending, Inspector."

The explorer looked at this scene and bent down to ask Conan: "Orpheus told me that the one named Sera was a girl, so that lady was seeking revenge, right? What a terrible method."

Conan nodded awkwardly: "Well, Sister Sera is a master of Jeet Kune Do."

At this time, Kogoro Mouri walked into the exhibition hall. He explained that he saw the report on TV and was worried about his daughter, so he came to see her.

Sera said, "There are still thirty minutes left until the time Kid announced. I'll use this time to go to the bathroom."

Afterwards, the explorer also made an excuse to go to the bathroom and followed Sera out of the exhibition hall.

After seeing that there were too many people in the women's restroom on the first floor, Sera took advantage of the fact that she was wearing men's clothes and others couldn't tell, so she went directly to the men's restroom. As a result, she was knocked unconscious by the stun gun of Kaito Kidd who had been lying in ambush for a long time.

The explorer following behind skillfully hung a "Under Maintenance" sign on the door of the toilet, then walked in and happened to see Sera lying on the ground and Kaito Kid who was about to drag her into the small cubicle.

"Long time no see, Kidd." The explorer tossed the gold coins in his hand and looked at Kaito Kidd with his signature smile.

Kaito Kidd complained bitterly. Last time on the skyship, he suspected that the mining director had a close connection with the stone monster. Coupled with the shock he received in the Azoth Library last time, he felt that he never wanted to meet an explorer or fool's gold in his life.

But the arrow was on the string and had to be released, so Kidd could only bite the bullet and communicate with the explorer: "Um, should I call you Director Campbell or Director Mars?"

As soon as Kidd said this, he felt that he was doomed, because the smile on the explorer's face became visibly more sinister, which was undoubtedly because he revealed the secret.

But to his surprise, the prospector didn't perform a magic trick right in front of him and turn into fool's gold to silence him with a pickaxe. Instead, he warned him, "The person you knocked down with the stun gun is actually a girl. If you go back disguised like that, you'll probably be exposed to that little detective in no time."

"Eh? Then why is this guy in the men's room?" Kaito Kidd was shocked.

The prospector pointed to the next room and said, "That's because you have too many female fans. The women's restroom is too crowded, so she came here thinking she wouldn't be discovered."

"So she's a tomboy." Kidd suddenly realized, then looked at the explorer in confusion. "But you really won't stop me?"

"It's not my gem that's about to be stolen, so why should I be so anxious? Besides, it doesn't seem like you're here for the gem this time. After all, why would an Italian actress name a turtle after something from Greek mythology?"

Kid scratched his head and said, "Indeed, so I came here to warn Mr. Jirokichi. I had no intention of stealing anything."

The explorer rolled his eyes at him and said, "Go change into your clothes. I'm leaving now. Don't reveal my identity to anyone."

After saying that, the explorer turned around and was about to leave the bathroom. Seeing this, Kidd immediately pulled Sera into the cubicle, tied her to the toilet, and then changed her clothes.

After Kidd checked his disguise in front of the mirror to see if there was any problem, he was about to leave. But when he grasped the handle of the bathroom door, Fool Gold's hand came up from behind.

"You will keep the secret, right, Mr. Thief~" There was a hint of amusement in Fool Gold's sinister voice.

Kidd suddenly felt a chill on his back. He turned around to look at Fool Gold's grinning face and broke out in a cold sweat. "I will never tell anyone!"

Then, the moment Fool Gold let go, Kidd immediately slipped out of the toilet.

[Fool's Gold: Tsk, he's really not that scare-resistant. Conan's scare tolerance is much higher than his.]

[Entomologist: You should be thankful there's no surveillance camera in the restroom, otherwise you'd scare the hell out of everyone with your presence.]

[Novelist: I think after Conan has experienced a series of outrageous events before, he should be used to seeing Oletus's outrageous behavior.]

[Photographer: I've opened a separate video collection for Kaito Kid. This little pigeon is really interesting.]

[Madam Red: Indeed, he looked like a little white dove flapping its wings when he was frightened.]

[Professor: Speaking of which, back in the Twilight Annex, he didn't react much to the nightmare potion.]

[Doctor: Is he highly resistant to medication? Is his mental state very stable? Or are there other factors involved?]

[Novelist: Interesting. I must find a way to get him involved in the next drug trial.]

[Surveyor: Good man, you really make every dog ​​passing by the manor drink two small bottles of drink.]

[postman:?]

Fool Gold transformed into an explorer, walked out of the bathroom and returned to the exhibition hall.

Kaito Kid, who was disguised as Sera, was still frightened when he saw the explorer coming back. This abnormality was discovered by Xiaolan who was standing nearby.

"Sera, what's wrong with you? You've been staring at Mr. Norton since you came back from the bathroom, and you're sweating a lot."

Kidd quickly explained, "Ah, because the time Kidd announced is coming soon, and this is my first time confronting this magic master, so I can't help but feel a little nervous."

Conan immediately became alert. Previously, Sera had called Kid a "strange enemy," but now he had changed his name to "magic master." Something was wrong. Nine out of ten things were wrong.

The explorer stared at Kidd, wondering if he could kidnap him and blackmail the novelist. Then he gave up the idea: "Why would I work for Orpheus? This stingy guy still owes me money from last time, huh!"

As the fans outside the museum cheered for Kidd, the time for Kidd's preview was getting closer and closer. Sonoko couldn't help but ask Xiaolan how many minutes were left.

Xiaolan took out her cell phone to confirm the time, but she showed a look of surprise, then left her spot and walked several steps outside.
