Chapter 226: What new trick is Akaso-san going to play?

Conan arrived at the restroom.

Looking at the mask and clothes Kaitou Kid had used to disguise himself as Suzuki Shiro in the small stall.

A smile couldn't help but hang on the corner of his mouth.

"That guy Kaitou Kid, he really did sneak onto the ship."

"It's a pity I didn't discover earlier that Kaitou Kid had disguised himself as Mr. Suzuki; otherwise, I would have caught him by now."

"It doesn't matter that I haven't caught him yet. Anyway, we are on a ship now; for Kaitou Kid, this is just a giant cage."

"Next, as long as we set up a dragnet, we will definitely be able to catch that guy!"

"Since Kaitou Kid has come onto the ship, his target must be the Suzuki family's heirloom, the Black Star!"

"Right now, the Black Star is among the more than five hundred guests in the banquet hall. If Kaitou Kid wants to steal the Black Star, he will definitely have to return to the banquet hall."

"As long as we first determine which Black Star is the real one, then notify the police to be on guard, we can just sit back and wait for Kaitou Kid to walk right into the trap."

Meanwhile, in the luxury cabin, Ran was guided by a waiter to Akaso Kaze's room.

The waiter used a key card to swipe open the door.

"You're saying Akaso-san wants me to wait for him in the room?"

"Yes, Lord Akaso specifically instructed that no one else should know, saying he wants to give you a surprise."

The young waiter kept his head down and answered very respectfully.

Ran's face flushed and her heart raced like a deer bumping into things.

What new trick is Akaso-san going to play?

What kind of surprise? He must be trying to bully me again.

I won't fall for it.

Ran made up her mind while walking into Akaso Kaze's room.

The waiter led her to the bedroom, where the bed was covered in fresh flowers, with fine wine nearby.

Ran's eyes lit up.

"Lord Akaso said you just need to sit here and wait for him~."

Just as Ran sat on the edge of the bed, something reached out in front of her.

Pfft.

A puff of gas sprayed out.

Ran fainted instantly.

The waiter hurriedly stepped back two paces and carefully looked left and right.

Then, he put his hands together and began to mutter toward the ceiling.

"Lord Onmyoji, it's not that I didn't want to use someone else's identity, but I've been preparing for many days, and the props cost me a lot of money; please forgive me."

"I decorated this room specially, hoping you and Miss Ran can have a pleasant journey."

"Also, if the filming in the restroom... no, if the person filming the video is you, please help me delete it."

"Even if you're too lazy to delete it, please don't expose me."

"If that happens, I'll have no way out."

Kaitou Kid cried and wailed with great emotion for a while.

He opened his eyes and looked around through his fingers.

There was no abnormality at all.

Damn it, did that Akaso Kaze not hear me at all?

Then didn't I perform for nothing just now?

Kaitou Kid didn't dare say anything, respectfully exited the door, and locked it.

Only then did he let out a long sigh.

Looking at the top of the corridor, his eyes suddenly became a bit moist.

Why does being this Kaitou Kid feel a bit stifling?

Maybe I should change careers and become an Onmyoji.

Maybe if I cultivate well, I can directly find the cause of my father's death.

In the banquet hall, Akaso Kaze was using his Void Eye to observe Ran lying on his bed from a 360-degree angle with no blind spots.

A perfect sleeping posture, just like a sleeping beauty lying on the bed, waiting for him, the prince, to wake her up.

The red dress and the roses on the bed complemented each other.

Her long black hair was spread evenly across the bed, waiting for her sweetheart's caress.

Especially that strange little horn, sticking straight up, making one unable to resist wanting to flick it twice.

Ran was now simply a plate of fresh fruit, just placed in Akaso Kaze's room.

Should he eat it or not?

Akaso Kaze was very hesitant.

Sonoko was also very hesitant now.

What's going on?

She finally got her father's permission to sacrifice a little of her looks for the family.

Who knew her father was actually Kaitou Kid in disguise.

How is this possible?

Clearly, what he said made a lot of sense.

Isn't an Onmyoji as capable as Akaso Kaze a huge help to the family?

Look, even an outsider knows to worry for the Suzuki family and thinks he should be recruited as a son-in-law; why isn't her own family worried?

Wait!

Sonoko suddenly narrowed her eyes.
