Transform randomly in Kexue World

Chapter 573: An Inappropriate Halloween
After getting off the plane in a hurry, Conan went straight to Dr. Agasa's house, where Xiaolan was already waiting for him.

"Shinichi... take a look at this." Xiaolan's face looked a little bad, and she pushed the invitation letter on the coffee table towards Conan.

Dr. Agasa standing by also didn't look too good.

Seeing their looks, Conan didn't even bother to say hello and hurried over to check the invitation.

There was no postmark on the invitation letter that was put into the mailbox of Kudo's house. It was obviously put into the mailbox by the sender himself. The envelope was written with "Kudo Shinichi"

But when he took out the folded invitation and opened it, the first sentence made Conan understand why Xiaolan and Professor Agasa were worried.

{Dear Edogawa Conan.}
The recipient of the invitation letter was Kudo Shinichi, but the addressee was Edogawa Conan. There was no doubt that the person behind the letter already knew Conan's true identity.

In fact, Conan had already realized this when Shuichi Akai brought the photos he found from Tomoaki Niide's residence last time (the photos of Conan and Ran Mouri were marked as Coolguy and Angel respectively).

{On the night of the full moon this month, please allow me to invite you to this horrible night banquet. It will be a bloody party on the boat. Whether you are present or not, the dying lamb will curse his fate, and the sinner will get drunk before his death...}
{Because it is a Halloween party, all participants are requested to dress up as monsters and wear black suits or black skirts, and the same applies to your companions.}
……

After Conan, Martin and Usagi walked in. As for Kogoro Mouri who was traveling with them, he went straight home and found out that his daughter was not at home.

"Hi Martin... a handsome guy is here today." Miyano Akemi, who was sitting on the sofa watching TV, greeted Wu Yanzu and Martin. Seeing that there was no one else behind Martin, she asked again, "Why didn't you bring your sister back with you?"

"She came here to work." Martin spread his hands: "How dare she run around without the boss's permission?"

Although Ma Wu insisted on going to the main god space together, her main purpose of coming to this time and space was to intern at Fushahui's company.

As for Suzuha, if they had stayed in the United States for two days, they might have been able to bring her back. However, Conan left in a hurry after receiving the news from Xiaolan, and Martin was reluctant to miss such a big event, so they left in a hurry, and Suzuha continued to stay in the United States with Ma Wu.

"Hey, whether Xiaowu's boss gives orders or not is not just a matter of a word from the doctor~" Miyano Akemi began to joke with Dr. Agasa: "Let the doctor blow his pillow wind!"

"Haha... stop joking." Dr. Agasa was worried at the moment and was in no mood to deal with Miyano Akemi and Martin's jokes.

Martin took off his coat and threw it on the coat rack at the door, then sat down to watch TV with Miyano Akemi. However, she seemed to be watching some kind of meaningless soap opera. "Where's Ai? Is she still doing research?"

"Yesterday, when Martin's minions were playing around in her laboratory, they mixed up several bottles of colorful potions." Miyano Akemi said, "After the minions disappeared last night, the potions were still there. Shiho suddenly became interested in them and is now analyzing whether there are any strange ingredients and effects in them."

At this time, Akemi Miyano discovered something strange. This time, Tuji did not sit directly next to Martin, but sat in a position one person's width away from Martin, with her arms folded. No matter how you looked at her, she looked like a little girl who was throwing a tantrum.

Martin used his butt to move towards Rabbit, getting a little closer.

Tuji also followed suit and exerted force with his buttocks, moving away from Martin and pressing his body against the armrest.

"Martin actually made Rabbit unhappy?" For Miyano Akemi, this was much more shocking than the Black Organization discovering Kudo Shinichi's identity. She was surprised that Martin was willing to make Rabbit angry, and also surprised that Rabbit would be angry with Martin.

"Well..." Martin shrugged and said evasively, "There were so many people at the airport, and Bunny got lost by accident. When I found him again, he was mad at me."

"Ji!" When Tuji heard Martin's evasive remarks, he stared at Martin with wide eyes in dissatisfaction.

stare--

"Hmm? Martin-kun didn't tell the truth?"

Martin sighed, "Okay, okay, it's because I was focusing all my attention on Xiao Wu, and ended up getting separated from Tuji, so it took me more than 20 minutes to notice him."

"Oh, I ignore the little bunny because of my sister. I don't know whether I should praise Martin as a good brother or scold him as a scumbag."

"He's just careless, not unfaithful. Are our definitions of scumbags different?"

"Maybe, scumbag."

"Eh? Is that an even more excessive name?"

"I'm just venting my anger on the little bunny. Poor little bunny, come and let your sister hug you."

……

On the other side, Conan finished reading the invitation letter.

"Shinichi..." Xiaolan bit her lower lip and looked at Conan worriedly: "What do you think?"

Kyubey Martin once secretly told her that this man named Vermouth would not harm her and Shinichi, but this matter could not be told to Conan for the time being.

"It's obviously a Hongmen Banquet." Conan said, "Not only did they point out my identity, but they also threatened that someone would die on it. If they weren't already prepared, then they were impatient and wanted to end it all quickly."

As Conan said this, his eyes were bright and he was obviously eager to try and full of fighting spirit.

"Shinichi, I..." After hesitating for a moment, Xiaolan said, "I don't want you to go."

In Xiaolan's opinion, Conan had not gained any advantage in the previous battles with the Black Organization. If it weren't for Martin, Conan would have been in danger of death. And in the previous battles, Conan was secretly calculating and investigating the organization.

This time, the organization has already noticed Conan's existence and directly set up a Hongmen Banquet to send him an invitation letter, and even Maori Kogoro received one. No matter how confident Xiaolan is in Conan, she also thinks that going to the banquet rashly is just brave but not wise.

At the same time, Martin turned his head and looked at Miyano Akemi: "The Hongmen Banquet is more dangerous than good. It kills people and destroys their hearts. It works!"

Miyano Akemi sneered: "What the hell is this Hongmen Banquet? It's just a bad girl inviting a corgi."

Martin preached solemnly: "Xiang Yu invited Liu Bang!"

Miyano Akemi asked, "What did Liu Bang do later?"

"He became the emperor." Miyano Akemi then asked, "What about Xiang Yu?"

Martin slapped his thigh and said, "Then let's go to the banquet! This is a good opportunity to win over Vermouth as well. The three of us can join forces to cause trouble together."

Here, Xiaolan looked into Conan's eyes and repeated again: "Shinichi, don't go."

Conan looked up and met her gaze, then nodded after a long pause: "Okay, I'll listen to you. I won't accept this invitation."

"Really!" Xiaolan suddenly became happy, and it seemed that flower special effects appeared next to her face.

Dr. Agasa at the side suddenly came up with a trick: "Why don't we call the police! Look at the address on this invitation: the ghost ship in Yokohama Port. There must be many accomplices of the Black Organization in it, right? How about just telling the police to arrest them?"

"Doctor, you're overthinking it." Martin held his phone and Googled it while pouring cold water on it: "Fukuura Chizo, a film producer and director, is known for his works "Buddha's Destruction" and "The Diary of the Ghost Captain". The latter is currently updated every year, and this year is the fourth."

"what?"

"In order to use cheaper extras with more realistic acting skills and makeup when filming the movie, the director would hold a ghost ship party every year at this time, inviting movie fans to participate in the makeup, taking the opportunity to shoot a few large scenes and select suitable actors." Martin continued to watch the related discussions on the forum and spoke based on his own memory.

Dr. Agasa understood: "So this inappropriate Halloween party was not arranged by the Black Organization, but Vermouth wanted to use this place to do something?"

"Yeah." Conan also 'understood': "After all, I'm not a fool. How could I possibly step into a place that is completely controlled by the Black Organization... Only a place where neither Vermouth nor I have a home advantage is suitable for both sides to hide and compete."

"Then you shouldn't go either..." Xiaolan muttered softly, but her voice became smaller and smaller. Finally, she lowered her head and remained silent, as if she was thinking about something.

Conan noticed that Xiaolan was thinking: "Xiaolan?"

"In that case, as long as Shinichi doesn't appear on that ship, that person named Vermouth won't do anything rash, right? It is very likely that she won't do anything." Xiaolan sorted out the logic bit by bit.

Conan nodded: "In theory, yes, but judging from the content of the invitation letter, whether I go or not, one person will die... I can't be sure whether this is a common term in the invitation letters sent by Director Fukuura, or just a threat to me."

"I'll go there. If anyone is in danger, I'll try to save him." Xiaolan said resolutely: "If possible, I also want to take this opportunity to see who this Vermouth, the person who disguised himself as Dr. Shindo, is."

Although Martin said that Vermouth would not hurt her, Xiaolan didn't understand why, and became curious about what the relationship between her and Vermouth was.

Besides, this is a Halloween costume party. As long as the makeup is heavy enough and nothing unexpected happens, Vermouth will not be able to find herself in the crowd.

"Xiaolan..." Conan's expression was clearly worried: "That's a Halloween party, aren't you very bad at dealing with ghosts?"

"Knowing that they are all disguised as humans..." Xiaolan was a little unsure: "Should it be okay?"

"The last time I went to a haunted house with you, you almost strangled me to death."

"N-Nonsense!"

Conan stopped talking, and the look in his eyes when he looked at Xiaolan showed that he was thinking.

Conan was fully expecting that Xiaolan would stop him from accepting the invitation, and he had no intention of accepting the invitation in the first place. But Conan was surprised that Xiaolan wanted to go to the Halloween party herself - was there such a good thing?

"Shinichi?" Xiaolan felt unsure. Without knowing whether Vermouth would hurt her, she didn't want Shinichi to take the risk, but she wanted to run over herself. Xiaolan herself felt that it was a bit unreasonable to do so.

"Oh, sure." Conan agreed easily, then turned to look at Martin: "Martin, you will go too, right? Halloween parties are your strong point."

Sonoko's sister, Suzuki Ayako, is still extremely afraid of the Headless Horseman.

However, Martin scratched his ear with a bored look on his face: "My strengths don't mean I like to participate in the bronze game of Fish Frying as a king. Isn't that just like you participating in a primary school reasoning competition? What's the point?"

However, Conan turned his head away with embarrassment - he did sign up for the elementary school reasoning competition, even though it was the three guys from the Junior Detective League who forced him and Haibara to sign up.

"Anyway, it depends on my mood tomorrow." Martin leaned back and rested his head on the back of the sofa with his eyes closed.

With Ma Wu's amplification disconnected, his abilities have become out of control again, so tomorrow he will transform into a currently unknown character. He will then consider what to do tomorrow.

However, it is not that there is no change at all. After experiencing it, Martin now vaguely understands what it means to control his own superpowers, just like experiencing a higher level of cultivation in fantasy novels.

"Hey, you're not going?" Conan was a little confused when he heard that. He turned his head and looked at Xiaolan again, as if he had changed his mind again.

"I don't care, you agreed anyway." Xiaolan saw that he wanted to go back on his word, so she quickly stood up and left: "I'm going to discuss the party with my dad, Shinichi, you should go home early too."

However, Conan was not in a hurry. He watched Xiaolan leave with a smile.

"Shinichi...?" Dr. Agasa didn't understand what was going on at all: "Is it really okay to let Xiaolan go to the party?"

"Of course it's okay. This invitation letter is not a Hongmen Feast at all, but a strategy to lure the tiger away from the mountain." Conan finally explained: "Vermouth's target should have always been Miss Huibara and Akemi, but she doesn't want me to get in the way, and she can't deal with Martin and his rabbit, so she wants to use an invitation letter to lure us and even the FBI away, so that she can easily deal with Huibara and the others."

After reading the invitation, Conan predicted that Xiaolan would oppose him against the organization this time, so he deliberately said that this was a Hongmen Banquet, so that she took the initiative to ask Conan to stay and not accept the invitation.

"As for the party on the other side, it must be just an ordinary film festival party with no organized layout or danger at all, right?" Conan said confidently, turning his head to check the answer with Martin.

"Well, not really." Martin decided to give Conan a little spoiler this time: "Vodka is over there."

"What!" Conan, who was originally in control of his wits, suddenly became uneasy: Vodka is over there, and Gin must not be far away. And they are not ordinary members of the organization, but powerful enemies who can transform into magical girls!

Conan stood up and ran towards the door.

"Xiaolan! I suddenly feel that we should think about it again! Xiaolan!"
