Seeing that her uncle was actually discussing with Kaito Kidd how to lead the police outside in front of her and the others, Sonoko covered her head with her hands, and for a moment she couldn't tell whether it was reality or a dream.

"The uncle who always wanted to catch Kaito Kidd actually..."

Tatsuno looked at Sonoko as if he had seen a ghost, sighed helplessly, and explained: "Sonoko, although your uncle is trying to save his beloved dog Lupin, this approach is 'shameful'. If this matter is known by the hot-blooded Inspector Nakamori, what do you think will happen?"

The scene of Inspector Nakamori's lecture to his subordinates before appeared in Sonoko's mind, and she shook her head instantly.

She understood that Tatsuno was right. At this point, this matter must not be discovered by Inspector Nakamori and others outside!

Otherwise, not only will her uncle lose all his face, but he may even be arrested for 'wasting police resources' and 'disturbing social order'.

After figuring this out, Sonoko clenched her fists and prepared to say that she would also join the plan of "luring the police away."

However, just as this thought came up, Sonoko nervously leaned her head on Xiaolan's shoulder, "Sure enough, Xiaolan... I really don't have confidence in my acting skills..."

Hearing this, Xiaolan also nodded, saying that she was also worried that she would not be able to act well and that Inspector Nakamori and others would find out some flaws.

"Don't worry, you guys go to the restaurant to eat first. This matter will be resolved soon~" Tatsuno waved his hand casually.

"Okay, then we'll go to the restaurant first... We will also prepare Lupin's dinner, and you can bring it to the restaurant directly after you rescue Lupin!"

After saying goodbye to Tatsuno and the others, Xiaolan and Sonoko turned around and walked out of the office.

A few minutes later, Suzuki Jiroyoshi also called the newly hired secretary Akitsu Masuhiko on the intercom according to the instructions of Kaito Kid, and asked him to go to his room.

Tatsuno and the others also walked out of the office separately.

After parting with Kaito Kid, Conan whispered, "Takeda, I started to doubt the maid's identity after the card appeared on the floor of that room. When did you start..."

Tatsuno looked down at Conan and shook his head, "These are not important anymore. Let's rescue Lupin first. I remember that he likes you very much, doesn't he~"

Hearing this, Conan subconsciously touched his cheek and recalled the scene when he first saw Lupin.

For some reason, the dog especially likes to lick him with that big tongue...

Thinking of this, Conan seemed to remember the wet and sticky feeling on his face, and he shuddered immediately.

...

Ten minutes later, Suzuki Jiroji walked to the safe room with a cane and a big bag, and explained his purpose to Inspector Nakamori.

After listening to Suzuki Jirokichi's request, Inspector Nakamori was surprised and said, "What?! You know Kidd may appear at any time, and you want to go in and open the vault now?!"

"Yes, I want to check the inside of the vault. This is what I have to do every day at this time."

After saying that, Suzuki Jirokichi ignored Inspector Nakamori, directly pressed the anti-theft release button, opened the door and walked into the room.

After entering the room, Suzuki Jirokichi turned his head and said, "It will be over in two or three minutes. During this period, you are absolutely not allowed to peek!"

After giving instructions, Suzuki Jirokichi closed the door on his own.

Inspector Nakamori at the door squinted at the door and said to himself, "The more you say you can't look, the more I want to look..."

The next moment, Inspector Nakamori put his hand on the door handle, ready to take a sneak peek at the situation in the room.

At this moment, a big hand pressed on Inspector Nakamori's shoulder, interrupting his behavior.

Inspector Nakamori turned his head and saw a big square face.

Suzuki Jirokichi's bodyguard Goto Zengo looked at him unkindly and said a few words seriously: "Please don't."

Inspector Nakamori smiled embarrassedly and put his hand down, "It's really not possible..."

Bodyguard Goto Zengo nodded, then put his hand to his mouth, "Also, can you please be quiet? This may disturb Consultant Suzuki who is making a phone call inside."

"Calling?"

"He is always talking to someone in the vault, but this may also be him talking to himself."

"Could it be that he forgot the password of the vault, so he is asking someone?"

"I don't know about that."

After answering Inspector Nakamori's question, bodyguard Goto Zengo stopped talking, but stood silently aside, staring at Inspector Nakamori's every move.

After watching the whole scene, Ryuno, who was not far away, chuckled and said, "Although he hired so many new people for that 'purpose', it seems that he hired the right bodyguard~"

Conan also nodded, "Yes, he is indeed a competent bodyguard."

After saying this, Conan was helpless's eyes blinked.

The bodyguard's 'talking to himself' was actually just Suzuki Jirokichi 'talking' to his beloved dog Lupin.

Two minutes later, Suzuki Jirokichi walked out of the room and closed the door.

"Okay, I've finished the inspection, and you can do whatever you want afterwards!"

Upon hearing this, Inspector Nakamori immediately stepped forward, "Before you go back to the room, can we check the things on you and in your backpack first?"

"Well, that's fine if that's the case." Suzuki Jirokichi handed over the backpack and crutches in his hand.

He understood Inspector Nakamori's purpose, and the reason for doing this was to check if he had taken anything out of the vault.

If he really took something out of the vault, then 'himself' was likely to be disguised as Kaito Kid.

After the inspection, Suzuki Jirokichi said, "By the way, I'm about to go out, so please do as you please."

Inspector Nakamori was stunned upon hearing this.

"I almost forgot that I had made an appointment with Chaki to have dinner together today."

Speaking of this, Suzuki Jirokichi threw the car keys in his pocket to the bodyguard beside him with his left hand, and asked him to drive to the back door and wait for him immediately.

After the instructions, Suzuki Jirokichi turned and walked towards the direction of Tatsuno and Conan, and winked at the two.

Then, Suzuki Jirokichi walked towards the back door of the villa, ready to leave the villa.

Ten minutes later.

Tatsuno and Conan seemed to chat in front of Inspector Nakamori.

"Brother Tatsuno, is Advisor Suzuki's dominant hand left or right?"

"Huh? Of course it's the right hand. Uncle Suzuki is not left-handed~"

"Oh~ But when Advisor Suzuki threw the car keys to the bodyguard just now, it seemed that he used his left hand?"

"Left hand? Now that you mention it..."

"..."

Hearing this, Inspector Nakamori frowned instantly, and kept recalling the scene just now in his mind.

At this moment, the maid Seto Mizuki ran towards everyone in a panic, "No, it's bad!!"

"Just now when I went to the master's room to pack up, I saw that the door of the closet was slightly open. I looked inside... and saw Master Jiroyoshi unconscious and tied in the closet!!"
