Chapter 627: Challenge from Suzuki Jirokichi
That day, Youya was sitting in the classroom surfing the Internet when he suddenly saw a familiar face.
A bald head, a slightly round face, and thick gray eyebrows and beard. Yes, this person is Suzuki Jirokichi.
He challenged Kaito Kidd again.
The treasures this time are the legendary jeweled sandals and purple nails.
At the end of a pair of exquisitely crafted sandals, each is inlaid with a sparkling purple gem. It is said that even the Holy Roman Emperor, Maria Theresa, was deeply attracted by this treasure.
Yuya touched his chin. If he guessed correctly...
"Yuya!" As soon as the get out of class was over, Suzuki Sonoko rushed over and slammed Yuya's desk. "Did you see the morning news today?"
Yuya poked his aching ear and said helplessly, "I see, I see. Uncle Jiroji has challenged Kid again?"
Suzuki Sonoko came to Yuya with shining eyes and said, "You have to help me, Yuya!"
Yuya scratched his cheek. It seemed like he hadn't seen Kid for a long time and he missed him a little. So he stretched out his hand towards Suzuki Sonoko and made a "give it to me" gesture.
Suzuki Sonoko blinked; "What?" After hesitating, she tentatively put her chin on it.
Yuya's mouth twitched slightly, he withdrew his hand and said speechlessly: "What are you doing? I don't want your head, I want the preview letter! The preview letter of Kaito Kidd!"
Suzuki Sonoko blushed and was very embarrassed. She did this because she saw the video on the Internet by chance. She glanced at Miyano Shiho cautiously and found that she was just smiling and watching the fun and didn't care about her behavior, so she breathed a sigh of relief.
Then he scratched his head awkwardly and said, "No notice letter...!"
Yuya was speechless for a moment: "No, how can I know Kidd's next move without a notice?"
Suzuki Sonoko said cautiously, "Maybe it happened too suddenly, so Mr. Kidd didn't have time to send out a notice? Uncle Jiroji will exhibit the jewel shoes tonight."
Yuya glanced at the news and noticed that the exhibition would be tonight. No wonder Kidd didn't send out a notice. Maybe he planned to show up directly on the scene?
"This..." Youye hesitated.
Even if it was him, without knowing Kidd's plan, it would be impossible for him to let Suzuki Sonoko stay there in advance as he did in the past.
Moreover, the jeweled shoes were displayed in the most central street of Ginza, in full view of the public.
It was quite interesting. How was Kid going to steal the jeweled shoes in front of so many people? Yuu was beginning to look forward to it.
"Well, I'll be there tonight."
"Great!"
···
That night, at the intersection in the center of Ginza.
A specially made booth was placed in the middle of the road, on which was placed the pair of jeweled sandals. There were also four bodyguards standing at four positions around the booth to protect it.
At this moment, the streets were already crowded with fans of Kaito Kid, who were excitedly discussing how Kaito Kid would appear here in a handsome way and steal the jeweled sandals.
They held up cheering signs with Kidd's name on them and shouted Kidd's name loudly.
It's a pity that, except for a few people, no one stood on Suzuki Jirokichi's side.
Ginzo Nakamori was complaining to Jirokichi Suzuki that he had not explained the situation to the police, which prevented him from arranging sufficient police force for protection in time.
Suzuki Jirokichi scoffed at this. Based on past experience, no matter how many police officers there were, they would be fooled around like children in front of Kaito Kid.
The only two people who could see through Kid's actions were his niece's good friend Kamiya Yuya and the little kid following behind Mouri Kogoro.
However, this time he did not intend to rely on the strength of these two people, and had already made a plan that he believed was foolproof.
As long as Kidd dares to show up here, then we can...
Thinking of this, Suzuki Jirokichi laughed triumphantly.
Suzuki Sonoko's forehead was bruised with black lines. Thinking of the previous times when her uncle had challenged Kaito Kidd and all ended in failure, she couldn't help but say worriedly, "Could Uncle Jirokichi be hurt by the blow?"
"Don't worry," Youya glanced over there casually, "Uncle Jiroji is in a good mood, everything will be fine."
Suzuki Sonoko thought about this and nodded in agreement: "That's right, I'd better focus on Master Kidd!"
Youye glanced at him sideways and said, "You are really a good nephew to your uncle!"
Suzuki Sonoko looked around and asked, "Yuya, what do you think Uncle Jiroji has prepared? I don't think he's worried at all."
Youya touched his chin. When he came over, he saw a long bulge covered with cardboard on the ground. If he guessed correctly, it should be something like a cage that can be raised?
But will that really catch Kaito Kidd?
"Don't worry, the answer will be revealed soon." Youya looked up at the sky. The moon was getting fuller. "Kid will appear soon."
Suzuki Sonoko was surprised: "How did you know?"
Youya smiled and said, "Didn't you notice that every time Kidd appears, the moon is very full?"
Suzuki Sonoko was stunned: "Really?"
Yuya was disdainful: "You claim to be Kaito Kid's number one fan, but you didn't even notice this?"
Suzuki Sonoko looked around a little guiltily, as if she was afraid of being heard by Kid, and asked in a low voice: "So why is that?"
Youye paused, looking as if in deep thought, and after a while he said, "I... don't know either."
Suzuki Sonoko widened her eyes and said, "No, have you been teasing me for all this time?"
"Puchi!" Miyano Shiho, who was standing next to her, couldn't help but laughed out loud.
Suzuki Sonoko pursed her lips, looked back and forth at the two of them, then burst into tears and went to find Mouri Ran to cry to.
"Xiaolan, they both bullied me!"
"Ah?" Mao Lilan was confused.
Conan was full of question marks.
