After receiving the fruit tea from the maid, Conan shook his head: "No, I haven't caught it yet..."

"Really~" the maid answered while handing the fruit tea to Xiaolan and the others.

When it was Tatsuno's turn, the maid smiled and handed over a cup of coffee.

After seeing the latte art pattern on the coffee, Tatsuno narrowed his eyes and smiled: "Thank you for troubling you~ But can you please tell me why the latte art pattern is a fox?"

Hearing this, the maid Seto Mizuki also covered her mouth and smiled: "Huh? I just think the fox pattern is cute, there is no special metaphor~"

After hearing the conversation between the two, Xiaolan and Sonoko looked at the coffee cup in Tatsuno's hand curiously.

There was indeed a little fox head floating on the coffee.

"Wow! Miss Seto, you can actually make latte art patterns!" Sonoko said in surprise.

Xiaolan also looked at the maid in surprise, and looked at Tatsuno beside her, but did not speak.

At this time, Suzuki Jiroji took the fruit tea in his hand and said to Ryuno and others: "I'm going back to the office first. You guys can be casual and treat this place as home!"

Just before Suzuki Jiro turned around, the maid suddenly said: "Master, what did you mention before?"

"Ah?" Suzuki Jiroji was stunned for a moment.

"Ah? Didn't you say that? Didn't you tell me before that I would help you with something after delivering the drinks?" The maid continued.

Suzuki Jiroji's eyes widened instantly and nodded quickly, "That's right, I almost forgot! Anyway, come with me to the office first..."

After saying that, Suzuki Jiroji was about to turn around and walk towards the office.

Just then, Ryuno suddenly appeared in front of Suzuki Jiroji and chuckled: "Uncle, why don't we go together~"

Suzuki Jiroji looked at Ryuno with a weird smile in front of him, blinked wildly, and finally failed to refuse.

Soon after, everyone came to the door of the office.

Just as Suzuki Jirokichi opened the door and was about to go in, Tatsuno spoke again: "Mr. Goto Zengo, please stand at the door and don't let anyone other than us in."

Hearing this, Goto Zengo frowned and didn't answer.

Suzuki Jirokichi looked at Tatsuno in shock, and then said: "This kid is right, you help us guard the door."

At this point, he glanced at Tatsuno and Xiaolan, "Anyway, with these two here, no one can hurt me."

Although he was a little confused, Goto Zengo still obeyed Suzuki Jirokichi's order and stood in front of the office door to prevent anyone from approaching.

After entering the office, Sonoko spoke first: "Tatsuno, what happened? Why are you and your uncle weird?"

Although Conan didn't speak, he frowned and looked up at Tatsuno.

Under the gaze of everyone, Ryuno chuckled and said, "Uncle Suzuki, the reason you called Kaito Kidd here is probably because you want him to help you open the vault, right?"

"What?!" Sonoko said in surprise.

Conan seemed to have grasped some key 'inspiration', and he leaned his chin on his hand and lowered his head to think.

After a while, Suzuki Jirokichi sat on the chair and sighed, saying in a low voice: "You are right..."

-"Oh? Why do you want me to help you open the vault?"

In the astonished eyes of everyone, the maid Seto Mizuki slowly walked to the opposite side of Suzuki Jirokichi and spoke in the voice of Kaito Kidd.

Seeing this, Sonoko and Conan instantly looked up at the maid, their pupils constricted.

This voice...

This maid is Kaito Kidd? !

Conan looked at Kidd in front of him and instantly understood everything.

No wonder the initial notice letter and the notice letter issued by Kaito Kidd before were obviously different.

No wonder Jiro Suzuki hired three new people when he knew that Kaito Kid was coming.

This way, everything can be explained...

Jiro Suzuki specifically asked Kaito Kid to come!

The first notice letter was the "help letter" he wrote to Kaito Kid!

Put the bottom words of the first notice letter together from left to right, and it would be - "Do me a favor."

Jiro Suzuki rested his hands on the table, with a bitter look on his face.

"If I had to guess, uncle should have saved Lupin, right?" Tatsuno said lightly.

Hearing this, Jiro Suzuki and Kaito Kid turned their heads to look at Tatsuno in surprise, while Ran and Sonoko stared at Tatsuno blankly, puzzled.

After a few seconds, Suzuki Jirokichi loosened his clenched fists and explained: "Yes, Lupin is in that vault now, and he is locked inside..."

After listening to his uncle's words, Sonoko asked in confusion: "Locked in? Uncle, can't you just open the vault and let him out?"

Suzuki Jirokichi blinked uncomfortably"Because the steps are too complicated, I wrote down the password and sequence to open the vault on the scarf tied around Lupin's neck..."

Sonoko: "..."

After a few seconds of silence, Sonoko said nervously: "But uncle, if that's the case... Lupin has been locked in the vault for several days?! It can't be..."

"Don't worry about that, it's still alive. There is a ventilation hole under the vault for ventilation. I send food and water in from there on time every day." Suzuki Jirokichi shook his head.

Hearing this, everyone also understood what happened.

When Suzuki Jirokichi opened the vault last time, he accidentally left Lupin in the vault.

When he closed the vault, he found that Lupin was still inside.

But without the scarf with the password on Lupin's neck, he couldn't open the vault at all.

In desperation, he first thought of asking Kaito Kidd, the "professional vault prying expert", for help.

In order to contact Kaito Kid, he came up with the method of "fake notice letter".

In order to attract Kaito Kid's attention, he secretly conveyed to him the news that he needed help.

However, this method has a huge disadvantage...

Kaito Kid looked at Suzuki Jirokichi opposite him, crossed his legs and said: "Mr. Suzuki, why do you think I will definitely help you? I..."

Before Kaito Kid finished speaking, Tatsuno stepped forward and patted Kaito Kid on the shoulder.

Kaito Kid turned his head and looked at Tatsuno with a kind smile on his face, and sighed helplessly: "Forget it, anyway, I was going to help..."

At this time, Conan also remembered something, turned his head and said: "Brother Tatsuno, you already knew that the maid was pretending to be Kaito Kid, so you made that complicated request at that time, right?"

After hearing Conan's words, Sonoko's eyes also lit up.

No wonder she thought Tatsuno's request was a bit strange at that time, that's it!

Without waiting for Ryūno to speak, Kaito Kid frowned and said, "Mr. Suzuki, I can help, but I need you to cooperate with me."

"I know... I will cooperate." Suzuki Jijiro nodded.

After listening to the conversation between the two, Sonoko blinked in confusion.

Cooperation? What to cooperate with?

Ryūno and the others nodded without saying much.

They understood what Kaito Kid meant.

At present, the villa is full of police inside and outside, and it is impossible for Kaito Kid to appear in front of everyone and help open the vault.

Besides, Suzuki Jiroji's actions this time are not so "legal".

Thinking of the hundreds of police officers inside and outside the villa... This is no longer a false alarm and a waste of police resources.

If the police knew about this, Suzuki Jirokichi would definitely receive double sanctions from the law and the media...

But speaking of it, it is estimated that only the Second Investigation Division where Inspector Nakamori is located can send so many people at once...

They are generally responsible for tracking down "smart crimes", and the number of cases is much less than that of the First Investigation Division.

But it is true, after all, there are not many smart criminals...

If it was the First Investigation Division where Inspector Megure and his team are located, it would be impossible to mobilize so many police forces in such a short time.
