Conan: Detectives and Dogs Are Not Allowed

"Again?!"

Kuroba Kaito, who had just changed his clothes, was about to make a handsome appearance and say hello to everyone, but when he saw the flames coming again, he quickly protected himself with his cloak.

I don't know what magical material this cloak is made of. When Taro Jyouno hit it with his flames, it left a few burnt marks but failed to ignite it.

What surprised Kuroba Kaito even more was that the burnt parts vaguely formed a "dou" character. His heart tightened, and he immediately ran to the window, opened the window and unfolded the hang glider.

"The magic is over, everyone, see you later, when the bell rings to announce the end of the century, we will definitely meet again!"

After saying that, Kuroba Kaito jumped out without hesitation and quickly fled on the hang glider.

"Kaito Kidd!" Suzuki Sonoko hurried to the window to look, but it was pitch black outside, and there was no trace of Kuroba Kaito.

"He really has a hang glider." Tanaka Kikue blinked her eyes, looking incredible.

When Kuroda Naoko heard this, she remembered what Taro Jouno said at the dinner party before, and couldn't help but feel curious: "Mr. Jouno, you mentioned Kaito Kidd at the dinner party before, and mentioned the hang glider when you found Hamano's body. Did you know that Doi Takeki was Kaito Kidd?"

As soon as this was said, everyone's eyes were focused on Taro Jouno.

Taro Jouno extinguished the flame in his hand, smiled and said: "Yes, you can find it if you pay a little attention. If you rearrange the katakana of Doi Takeki's name, isn't it 'Kaito Kid'?"

When Conan heard this, his eyes turned into half-moons again, and he remembered that he had heard Sonoko say the full name of Doi Takeki on the way here, but he was not thinking about it at the time and didn't find the problem with the name at all. After all, normal people would not think of what other characters can be formed by the katakana of other people's names!

Others felt that they were indirectly called idiots by Taro Jouno, and they responded awkwardly for a few words, and then changed the subject.

Only Suzuki Sonoko, as a loyal fan of Kaito Kid, angrily rushed to Jionno Taro and asked: "Since you knew he was Kaito Kid, why didn't you tell us earlier!"

Jionno Taro looked at her with a smile on his face and said: "I reminded you at dinner. As long as you are willing to pay, I can tell you where Kaito Kid is tonight. You missed the opportunity."

Suzuki Sonoko recalled it and stared at Jionno Taro with resentment, "How can I have so much money? 1.5 million is enough for my pocket money for a month!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone around was silent.

Conan asked Mao Lilan curiously: "Sister Xiaolan, what are Brother Taro and Sister Sonoko talking about?"

"Ah? It's like this, at dinner..." Mao Lilan simply told Conan what happened at dinner, and also told him about Hamano Toshiya's magic.

After listening, Conan fell into deep thought. Did Jionno Taro realize that Kaito Kid had sneaked in? This guy is really a hidden talent.

Everyone tacitly avoided the question of Suzuki Sonoko's pocket money and started to discuss the fire magic that Taro Jouno had just performed.

"Mr. Jouno, your fire magic just now was so wonderful, how did you do it?"

"Yes, the flame looks so cool, and the posture and lines are so handsome..."

Taro Jouno certainly would not reveal the secret of his manipulation of fire, so he casually responded with a few words on the grounds that magicians cannot easily reveal their techniques. After everyone asked in vain, they gave up and turned to discuss other magic.

For a while, except for Hamano Toshiya who was lying outside the house and was already frozen, and Kuroba Kaito who had already flown away, the atmosphere in the house became unusually harmonious.

...

At dawn the next day, Maori Kogoro took a helicopter from the Metropolitan Police Department and flew to the villa. Everyone heard the movement and came out to greet him.

"Ran! Ran, are you okay?" As soon as Maori Kogoro got off the plane, he hugged Maori Ran tightly and carefully checked whether she was okay.

"Dad! I'm fine!" Maori Ran forced a smile, "But Mr. Hamano has passed away..."

Megure Jusan heard this and shouted in surprise: "What? There is a murder here?"

At this time, Tanaka Kikue walked out of the crowd and confessed: "Yes, I killed Mr. Hamano."

"What!" Megure Jusan was even more shocked. He didn't expect that the criminal would surrender as soon as he arrived.

Tanaka Kikue described in detail his motives and methods for killing, as well as the fact that he was seen through by Jyouno Taro.

After listening to this, Megure Jusan was filled with emotion: "Killing people for two words said by others casually, this is too..."

Then, Megure Jusan turned his eyes to Jionno Taro, the man who saw through the identity of the suspect. He looked at him carefully and suddenly felt that he looked familiar: "Hey, aren't you the owner of the coffee shop downstairs from Brother Mori's office? Why are you here?"

Although Jionno Taro did not meet Megure Jusan when he went to take the statement twice before, Megure Jusan still had some impression of him, especially the two cups of coffee handed over by Sato Miwako and Takagi Wataru, which made him doubt his life for a time and it was difficult to forget.

In addition to Jionno Taro's performance in the coffee shop before, and Sato Miwako's report to him that Jionno Taro's heroic deeds of tracking the counterfeit money gang alone and calling the police to catch them all in one fell swoop, all made Megure Jusan impressed Jionno Taro.

"Hello, Officer Megure, this is really a coincidence, a pure coincidence." Jionno Taro replied easily, "I just happened to be interested in magic, and I met these friends on the Internet, so I came to the party, and I didn't expect to encounter a murder case. "

Conan, who was standing by, resisted the urge to sleep and secretly complained in his heart: "No, this guy definitely didn't appear here by chance. He must be chasing Kaito Kid."

After listening to Mao Lilan's story about what happened at dinner yesterday, Conan had already made a judgment in his heart.

He believed that Jionno Taro came for Kaito Kid's 15 million bounty. Jionno Taro learned on the Internet that Kaito Kid would attend this party, so he wanted to catch Kaito Kid with his strange fire magic. But he didn't expect that Kaito Kid's cloak was not afraid of fire, which allowed Kaito Kid to escape.

Everyone had their own thoughts and took the Metropolitan Police Department's helicopter to leave the mountains.

Jionno Taro declined Mao Li Kogoro's invitation to take a ride and took a car back to Beika Town.

……

Back to At home in Ekoda Town, Ono District, Tokyo, Kuroba Kaito stared at the black word "斗" on his cloak, feeling increasingly uneasy.

The words that Taro Jouno said at dinner yesterday echoed in his mind again and again, making him feel more and more uneasy.

He almost instinctively wanted to open the computer and search for Taro Jouno's identity information.

But on second thought, Taro Jouno's words "The Internet will remember all your information" were like a warning bell, which made him give up this idea.

After hesitating for a while, Kuroba Kaito decided to ask for help from others.

He picked up the phone and dialed a familiar number.

"Kaito? Why did you call me suddenly?" The clear and pleasant voice of Koizumi Akako came from the other end of the phone.

"Uh, Koizumi-san, I want to ask you something. Can your magic help me check a person's information?" Kuroba Kaito said a little embarrassedly.
