Chapter 3110: The Skeleton Army's Invasion! The Flying Squirrel's Excitement

~4 min read 620 words

"Phantom Thief, damn you!"

After snapping back to his senses, Mouri Kogoro gritted his teeth, flipped cleanly over the sofa, and planted himself in front of Conan.

His body tensed.

Facing Phantom Thief Kid, he was already prepared to make a move.

Although Mouri Kogoro looked muddle-headed, he was a retired veteran detective — a genuine top-tier judo master.

More importantly... Mouri Kogoro had already realized that Phantom Thief Kid's target was Conan.

"A phantom thief who loves to steal countless precious treasures has actually turned his eyes on Conan!"

Mouri Kogoro's voice was steady. "Are you trying to say that, in your eyes, the value of my family's Conan is enough to rival those... extremely precious treasures?"

"Indeed so!"

Phantom Thief Kid nodded in agreement without hesitation.

Mouri Kogoro was stunned for a moment — he had only meant to use his words to probe Phantom Thief Kid.

He never expected Phantom Thief Kid to actually agree! Instantly, the look he gave Phantom Thief Kid turned... strange... as if he were looking at a perverted pedophile.

"Hey, hey, hey, what kind of rude look is that?"

The corner of Phantom Thief Kid's eye twitched.

He had the vague feeling that Mouri Kogoro had misunderstood something subtle! "Nothing! Just one more reason to arrest you."

Mouri Kogoro said expressionlessly.

Phantom Thief Kid: "..."

"I didn't expect to see such a wonderful scene right after arriving."

Applause suddenly rang out, and Su Han's voice, carrying a hint of approval and helplessness, followed. "By the way... Conan! The Black Organization has pretty much been dealt with — haven't you told your Uncle Mouri your real identity yet?"

"... Real identity... wait...!"

Mouri Kogoro froze for a moment, then realized something. He turned his head in disbelief to the side and saw Su Han and the others standing quietly there.

Su Han possessed an utterly perfect bearing — he didn't even look like an ordinary person.

Shazam, looking like a little child, was also quite eye-catching... but what drew Mouri Kogoro's attention most at this moment was the flying squirrel beside Su Han.

"... Skeleton! It moved."

"

Mouri Kogoro gulped, a look of horror crossing his face.

"Hey, hey, hey, what do you mean 'the skeleton moved' — isn't that a bit too rude a way to put it?"

The flying squirrel's face was full of exasperation.

"Holy crap! The skeleton is talking too!"

Mouri Kogoro's jaw was trembling. "What kind of monster are you — no! It must be Phantom Thief Kid's doing... is this some kind of weird magic trick?"

"... Don't throw every pot at me!"

Phantom Thief Kid covered his own forehead, his words tinged with helplessness.

"Uncle Mouri! Since things have come to this, I won't hide it from you anymore."

Conan sighed, then stepped forward and tugged at Mouri Kogoro's sleeve.

"I am Kudou Shinichi... um! It's... what you're imagining... because of some strange reason, I turned into a little kid."

Mouri Kogoro's body went still, then he took a long, deep look at Conan.

His expression shifted uncertainly.

"There's one more thing,"

Conan, having decided to explain, naturally had nothing to hide. After thinking for a moment, he added, "Do you believe that in this world... there exist supernatural powers?"

"..."

Mouri Kogoro's brow furrowed tightly. He was silent for a long while, then suddenly spoke, "Are you saying that your transformation into a child is related to supernatural powers?"

Conan stared dumbfounded, impressed by Mouri Kogoro's associative thinking, and hurriedly shook his head. "Not that aspect... I mean something else!"

"Let's end the discussion here!"

Su Han interrupted the exchange between the two. "My Kenbunshoku tells me — that Shinigami's invasion! has already begun."

"... Is that so?"
