Conan’s Unscientific Detective Chapter 109

Chapter 109 Conan: Pitiful, Weak, and Helpless

Inside the restroom of the Ciel et Sable.

“The one that woman is wearing on her chest, that must be the real Black Star, right?”

At this moment, Kaito Kuroba, still wearing the mask of Shiro Suzuki, was sitting on the toilet in the cubicle, deep in thought.

After a series of deductions that weren’t really deductions, and a detailed investigation, he now knew that the Black Star on Tomoko Suzuki was the real deal.

The next step was to go and retrieve it.

“Knock, knock, knock!”

Just then, a knock on the restroom cubicle door suddenly sounded. “Is anyone in there?”

“Ahem.”

Kaito Kuroba lightly coughed, making Shiro Suzuki’s voice. “Someone is.”

Although the voice from outside felt somewhat familiar, he didn’t think much of it.

The price of not thinking much was that with a loud ‘bang’, the restroom door was kicked open.

What came into view was a young man in a black suit, maintaining a flying kick posture.

“So you’re the one called Kaitou Kid?”

Saying that, Fujino silently pulled out a one-meter-long frozen fish from behind him.

Watching the somewhat familiar frozen fish, Kaito Kuroba’s mouth twitched.

Good heavens, why did he run into this guy again?!

This hateful frozen fish detective.

But then again, how did this guy know he hated fish?

Could it be…

“Ahem.”

As he pondered, Kaito Kuroba lightly coughed, revealing a poker face.

He continued to disguise Shiro Suzuki’s voice without batting an eyelid. “Fujino-kun, what are you talking about? Where is Kaitou Kid… Have you already found Kaitou Kid?”

“I’ve already found him.”

Fujino’s lips curled into a slight smile. He raised the frozen fish and slammed it down hard on Kaito Kuroba.

Damn it!

Looking at the approaching frozen fish, Kaito Kuroba cursed inwardly, then he pulled out a flashbang from who knows where and threw it out.

Bang!

With a bang, the entire cubicle was enveloped in a strong light.

In the strong light, Kaito Kuroba had somehow put on sunglasses.

Wearing sunglasses and maintaining Shiro Suzuki’s disguise, he nimbly climbed onto the restroom partition, attempting to escape from the top of the cubicle.

But just as he was about to flip over, his body involuntarily paused.

Kaito Kuroba: “?”

He looked back in confusion and saw the detective’s hand, which had already grabbed his calf.

He tried to struggle, but no matter how hard he struggled, he couldn’t break free.

The force coming from those fair hands was like a pair of pliers.

Fujino, holding Kaito Kuroba’s leg, silently raised the frozen fish high and slammed it down hard on his lower body.

Duang!

With a cracking sound, the toilet in the restroom was directly shattered by the frozen fish.

After the toilet was shattered, in an instant, a large amount of thick smoke began to gush out.

Before long, the restroom was filled with thick smoke.

Fujino rushed out of the restroom, enduring the thick fog.

He looked down, and all that was left in his tightly clenched hand was a pair of pants.

“Did he shed his skin like a cicada?”

Fujino examined the long pants in his hand, his brows slightly furrowed.

Then he looked up around him. At this moment, Kaito Kuroba’s figure had already disappeared.

Aside from the smoke drifting out of the restroom, there was nothing else in the hallway.

“Did he escape?”

Fujino clicked his tongue.

This was also within his expectations.

Kaito Kuroba, that kid, was an existence that was practically cheating.

It would be problematic if he could be caught easily.

However, that trick of shedding his skin like a cicada was indeed ruthless.

“But how did that guy hide so many flashbangs and smoke bombs on him?”

Fujino looked back at the smoke-filled restroom. “Could it be that guy also has a spatial pocket?”

“Fujino, what happened here?!”

Just then, a child’s voice came.

Fujino turned his head and saw Conan, who had rushed over.

“I just ran into Kaitou Kid, but he got away…”

After a pause, Fujino asked in return, “Conan-kun, why are you here?”

“Sonoko-neechan just called Ayako-neechan, and President Suzuki didn’t come to this ship at all. The one giving the speech on stage was Kaitou Kid in disguise!”

Saying that, Conan suddenly paused and noticed the long pants in Fujino’s hand.

Long pants?

They seemed to be President Suzuki’s long pants.

Why would Fujino be holding President Suzuki’s long pants?

Could it be…

Thinking of this, Conan’s gaze became wary as he stared at Fujino.

He crouched down, planning to activate his power-enhancing shoes.

Fujino: “…”

Seeing Conan suspecting him, Fujino took a deep breath and punched the Shinigami elementary schooler’s dog head.

Bang!

The punch landed directly on the back of the Shinigami elementary schooler’s head.

Conan immediately felt his old eyes blur.

He seemed to spin around twice in place like Tom Cat before he recovered.

This feeling of having his head hit by a dump truck…

It was undoubtedly Fujino!

No one else could deliver a punch like that except Fujino!

Thinking of this, the resentment in Conan’s eyes grew deeper.

He was practically a little resentful wife.

“It’s not me, so why hit me?”

After confirming that Fujino wasn’t Kaitou Kid, Conan asked in confusion, “Fujino, how did you figure out that Kaitou Kid was disguised as President Suzuki?”

“If Sonoko-neechan hadn’t called Ayako-neechan, I wouldn’t have known Kaitou Kid was disguised as President Suzuki.”

Fujino responded seriously, “Detective’s intuition.”

“Huh?”

Looking at Fujino’s serious expression as he spoke nonsense, Conan was stunned.

If he didn’t want to say, he didn’t have to, but why did he always use “intuition” to fool him?

If there really was such a thing as a detective’s intuition, would Kudo Shinichi, the Heisei Holmes, not have it?

Thinking of this, the resentment in his eyes deepened.

He was truly a little resentful wife.

“Just kidding.”

Fujino looked at Conan’s resentful expression and chuckled, explaining, “Although Kaitou Kid can perfectly disguise himself as others, emotions and speech are something he cannot disguise.”

“Emotions and speech?”

Conan was clearly confused by this answer.

Seeing Conan’s innocent and bewildered look, Fujino decided to teach him by example.

He went up and grabbed Conan’s face, starting to rub it.

And Conan, in order to learn how to see through Kaitou Kid’s disguise, dared not resist.

He could only show an expression of utter resignation, letting Fujino play with him…

Pitiful, weak, and helpless.

In the hallway beside the restroom.

“Damn it, how did that guy see through my disguise?”

At this moment, Kaito Kuroba, disguised as a waiter, was walking down the hallway with a tray.

Recalling the terrifying scene just now, his heart still couldn’t help but feel a lingering fear.

“Sir, have you seen a child wearing glasses?”

Just then, a sweet female voice came from behind him.

Kaito Kuroba turned around and saw Ran Mouri in a red dress.

He knew this girl; she was a crucial part of his plan to steal the Black Star…

He had originally planned to find a way to lure her out, but he hadn’t expected to meet her directly. It was truly effortless…

Thinking of this, Kaito Kuroba chuckled and responded, “Is it a boy in a blue suit?”

“That’s right.”

Ran nodded, her face full of worry.

“Please follow me.”
