Chapter 211 The ignorant Phantom Thief

"Phantom Thief Kid appeared as a father?"

Suzuki Ayako looked at Aizen with bright eyes and said, "Aizen, you are amazing. Your reasoning is absolutely correct. In order to get on this ship, Kaito Kid really appeared on the ship as a father."

"Of course, Aizen is the best. Even Kid is definitely not Aizen's opponent!"

Suzuki Sonoko was as proud as a peacock, and said with complacency, "When the housekeeper called and said that Officer Nakamori called home and said that the ship was delayed for two hours, it was proved that Aizen's reasoning was correct. Aizen said that Kid would call home in the name of the police and say that the ship's departure was delayed, and then pretend to be a father and come to the ship. Sure enough, Kid did so."

"Aizen, your reasoning is really brilliant."

Suzuki Ayako exclaimed. She was amazed at Aizen's talent again. Aizen is handsome and capable, and can be said to be the best choice for a boyfriend. At this moment, Suzuki Ayako can't help but envy her sister in her heart, who is so lucky to find such a boyfriend. Of course, Aizen is not without shortcomings. His shortcoming is his fickleness. He is not dating one girl but multiple girls. Although she does not oppose her sister's choice, she does not agree with it in her heart.

"Aizen, you are amazing!"

Ran also said after hearing it. Looking at Aizen at this moment, she inexplicably thought of Shinichi. The two are so good at reasoning and can be said to be on par.

Aizen smiled modestly, and then said: "Let's go out too, maybe Kaito Kid has been caught by the police now."

Suzuki Sonoko said: "It's not time yet, sister can't go out yet."

Suzuki Ayako smiled and said: "You go out, I'll be fine here."

Hearing what Suzuki Ayako said, the three of them left the room and walked towards the hall.

When Aizen and the other two came to the hall, Suzuki Shiro was speaking on the stage.

The three of them walked into the hall, and Suzuki Sonoko asked in a low voice: "Aizen, is that dad or Mr. Kid on the stage?"

Aizen replied in a low voice: "It's Kaito Kid. Uncle should still be in that room. When Kaito Kid changes his appearance, uncle can come out."

Ran asked in confusion: "Then why don't you catch him now?"

Aizen said: "Aunt said she prepared a game, and she wanted to see if Kaito Kid is really that powerful, so she didn't catch Kaito Kid now. When my aunt and I met Kaito Kid before, she say she wanted to catch him, so we have to wait until the game is over before we can catch him."

Ran couldn't help but say, "Aren't you afraid that he will run away?"

Aizen smiled and said, "I think my aunt must have arranged it. She must have arranged for someone to watch Kaito Kid, so Kaito Kid would not be able to run away. But Kaito Kid is not simple either. It's possible that he can still run away."

"Sister Ran!"

Conan came over at this time and asked curiously, "Are you talking about Kaito Kid?" He just heard the word Kaito Kid, but he didn't hear it clearly.

Ran nodded, leaned over to Conan and said, "Conan, Mr. Suzuki on the stage is Kaito Kid, but you can't tell anyone."

"Yeah!"

Conan nodded heavily, and then looked at Suzuki Shiro who was speaking on the stage in surprise. If Ran hadn't said it, he would never have known that Suzuki Shiro was disguised as Kaito Kid.

"I didn't expect that Kaito Kid would pretend to be Chairman Suzuki. It's really surprising, but he must not know that he has been discovered yet, right?"

Conan felt a little amused when he thought that Kaito Kid didn't know that he had been discovered. Then he looked at Aizen. It must be Aizen who discovered Kaito Kid. He is really not simple. He is definitely not as simple as an ordinary person who wants to learn detective reasoning. He knows the level of Mouri Kogoro very well.

When Suzuki Shiro finished speaking, Suzuki Tomoko came to the middle of the stage, holding a small box and said: "When boarding the ship, I asked someone to give such a small box to everyone... Then, please open the box." 

Everyone took out the box and opened it. There was indeed a black pearl inside, and there was a burst of exclamations immediately.

"To be honest, this is a small challenge from my side to that stupid thief. What is inside is the heirloom of my Suzuki family, which is also Kaito Kid's target tonight - the Dark Star. Of course, there is only one authentic one, and as for who I gave the authentic one to, only I know. The others only got fakes. Okay, everyone, now please pin this pearl on your chest and let Kaito Kid see the pearls you are wearing. If he can really steal it, let him watch it secretly."

"But the prerequisite for success is that within three hours that this ship is sailing on the sea, our Mr. Kaito must first determine which one is the authentic one."

"Hahahahaha!!!"

Upon hearing this, a burst of laughter rang out, and many people pinned the pearls on their chests immediately, and many people looked at the pearls in their hands carefully to identify the authenticity.

"Too amazing!"

Ran exclaimed:

 "Sonoko, your mother is so amazing, she can actually think of this method." Suzuki Sonoko said proudly: "Of course, my mother is very smart, even my father can't compare to her." 

Aizen's mouth curled up slightly, shook his head, looked at the black pearl in his hand, and wore it on his chest to prevent Suzuki Tomoko from making trouble.

"Amazing, Sonoko's mother is really amazing!"

Conan was also surprised. This was not the first time he saw Suzuki Tomoko. He had seen her several times during the time when Aizen was hospitalized, but it was the first time he found that Suzuki Sonoko's mother was so amazing that she could actually think of this method to deal with Kaito Kid. This is not something that ordinary people can think of.

Suzuki Tomoko put on the black pearl, smiled at Kaito Kid who was pretending to be Suzuki Shiro, and then walked off the stage. She wanted to see if this thief could steal the dark star before the ship docked, but no matter whether he could, when the ship docked, it would be the time for the other party to be arrested. 

"Miss Ran?"

A woman's voice greeted at this time. Aizen knew who the owner of the voice was without looking, because his clone was next to the owner of the voice. Moreover, he was very familiar with the owner of this voice. 

"Miss Natsue Hatamoto, Mr. Takeshi Hatamoto! You are here too?"

Ran turned around and saw that it was Natsue Hatamoto and Takeshi Hatamoto from the Hatamoto family. She immediately smiled and greeted them. She was very happy to see them again.

Takeshi Hatamoto was naturally the mirror clone of Aizen. Natsue Hatamoto was going to attend Suzuki Ayako's birthday party this time. She asked Aizen to go with her. Aizen naturally couldn't refuse. It just so happened that he also wanted the Joker to appear at this party, so he asked the Clone to transform into the appearance of Takeshi Hatamoto and follow along. If necessary, the Joker could appear at any time.

Natsue Hatamoto greeted them: "Ran, Sonoko, Mr. Aizen and Conan, long time no see."

"Hello!" The clone said hello shyly, and looked exactly like Takeshi Hatamoto.

Ran walked to Natsue Hatamoto and said: "We haven't met since we parted last time. Miss Natsue, how have you been recently?"

Natsue Hatamoto smiled and said: "I'm fine. Although it's very tiring to deal with the group's affairs, I still persisted because Takeshi Hatamoto was with me."

As she said that, Natsue Hatamoto looked at Aizen: "Mr. Aizen, what have you been doing recently?"

"Me?"

Aizen said with a smile: "I'm still learning from Master Mouri how to become a famous detective."

"Is that so? Then I think you will definitely succeed."

Natsue Hatamoto looked at Aizen, and then looked at Takeshi Hatamoto, smiled, and hugged Takeshi Hatamoto's left arm with both hands tighter.

Aizen has always known one thing, that is, Natsue Hashimoto has doubts about Takeshi Hatamoto's change. Many times when he slept with Natsue Hashimoto at night, he felt that Natsue Hashimoto got up in the middle of the night and touched his face, as if to see if he had another face under his face.

At the beginning, on the luxury cruise ship, the only two people who could pretend to be Takeshi Hatamoto were Mouri Kogoro and Aizen. In the case of excluding Mouri Kogoro, it is normal for Aizen to be suspected. This is also one of the reasons why Aizen asked the clone to come with Natsue Hashimoto tonight, to reduce Natsue Hashimoto's suspicion.

Natsue Hashimoto's favorability towards Aizen is now 86 points. Aizen is ready to wait until Natsue Hashimoto's favorability towards him reaches more than 90 points, and then he will show her his cards and let her know that Aizen and Takeshi Hatamoto are the same person. I believe that by that time, Natsue Hashimoto will be more able to accept it.

While everyone was chatting, Suzuki Ayako and Suzuki Shiro came out, and the servants beside them pushed a giant cake cart, and Suzuki Ayako's birthday party officially began.

The lights in the hall went out, and the spotlights shone on Suzuki Ayako. Suzuki Tomoko and Suzuki Shiro, who were standing next to Suzuki Ayako, were also illuminated. The lights moved with the steps of the three people.

At this moment, Aizen was led over by Suzuki Sonoko and stood aside.

When they came to the middle of the hall, Suzuki Shiro said, "Ayako, make a wish and blow out the candles."

"Yeah!"

Suzuki Ayako nodded in response, clasped her hands in front of her chest, and closed her eyes. At the same time, the spotlights went out, and only the candlelight was still emitting a faint light in the hall.

After Suzuki Ayako made a wish, she lowered her head and blew out the candles.

The candles were blown out, and the hall was dark. At this moment, a strange sound suddenly sounded. Everyone looked in the direction of the sound. They saw a light shining in the purple smoke, and the white-clad Kaito Kid appeared in a corner of the hall.
