Chapter 45 The Omitted Link
"I'd better go away from you, Edogawa Conan has been getting very close to you recently, if I appear with you and Lan sees..."
"Usually reckless and not afraid of being discovered by that organization, I will be the first to hide from Xiaolan."
Ji Xing looked at the building in front of him, and complained: "What a domineering name, Cosmic Theater? I really didn't have much interest in stage plays before. Then I'll go in first, and you can come back later."
Kudo Shinichi smiled awkwardly, and made an OK gesture: "Don't rush to do it when you find the disguised Kaitou Kidd, that guy can run very fast, even you, you can't fly to the sky, right?"
Ji Xing nodded and walked in.
...
In the Cosmic Theater.
Kogoro Mori has already arrived here because he received the entrustment from the film crew to capture the Kaitou Kidd. Along with him are his daughter Mori Ran, his best friend Suzuki Sonoko, and the three children of the Detective Boys. .
The three children were complaining and complaining about the agreement, but Conan let them go.
Sonoko is looking at the performance trailer.
The name of the stage play to be performed tonight is "Josephine", which is the story of Napoleon's first princess. It is very famous.
"That's great, I've wanted to come here to watch a stage play for a long time, if Ah Zhen is here..."
Hearing her murmur, Xiaolan's eyes curved into crescents with a smile, she leaned over and asked, "Yes, Sonoko, how are you and Kyogoku-senpai doing?"
Sonoko showed a sweet, nympho smile.
Love comes too fast, like a tornado.
She was originally happy because Kyogoku had won Ji Xing, so she ran to congratulate Kyogoku for winning the national karate championship, but she didn't expect Kyogoku to blush when she saw her, and confessed on the spot.
"Very good, that's it..." Yuanzi gave a rare coy smile, and complained: "He has been practicing boxing for too long, and he doesn't have much time to accompany me."
"It's because of hard work that Kyogoku-senpai can achieve 400 consecutive victories, right?"
"That's right." Yuanzi nodded: "He is only responsible for defeating Ji Xing Qixin and protecting me!"
Mao Lilan smiled helplessly, and you are here again.
Yuanzi was intimidated by Ji Xing's strength at first, but now that she has Kyogoku as her boyfriend, she feels that she can do it again!
Ji Xing's heart? Hmph, I'm not afraid at all!
……Huh?
"Ji, Ji, Ji..." She looked at the figure at the door, her face turned pale.
I just thought of him, why did he come here? !
Broken, Ah Zhen is not here!
"Huh?" Xiaolan turned her head in surprise.
The Boy Detective Team called out in surprise: "Brother Ji Xing Qixin!"
Ji Xing smiled and waved his hands: "Kids, Junior Sister Xiaolan, Junior Sister Yuanzi, and Uncle Mao Li, long time no see."
"...Yeah, long time no see." Yuanzi squeezed out a stiff smile on his face.
"Senior Ji Xing also came to the stage play?"
Mao Lilan is very enthusiastic.
Only Mori Kogoro turned black, how could this little devil come here, really...
Just at this moment, a staff member of the troupe, a tall lady wearing glasses, came out and greeted Kogoro Mori: "You are Mori..."
Mori Kogoro smiled again, and stretched out his hand: "Ahaha, I am..."
But seeing the lady's footsteps suddenly stagnate, she looked at Ji Xing, was stunned for three seconds, and exclaimed, "You are...could you be...President Ji Xing Qixin?! Oh my god, my god, you're alive... . . . God!"
She hurriedly rubbed her hands on the sides of her clothes, and walked towards Ji Xing incoherently.
Mori Kogoro's outstretched hand was awkward.
"The limelight has been completely overshadowed..." the trio of young detectives quietly complained.
"Shut up! You brats!!"
...
After a commotion, the group was led backstage by the troupe staff, and a lady named Yaguchi apologized to Mori Kogoro with an apologetic face.
Ji Xing and Xiaolan Yuanzi explained: "I heard that Kaitou Kidd sent a notice letter to this crew, so I came here to take a look."
"Really? Senior Ji Xing is here, so we can definitely catch the Kaitou Kidd." Xiaolan admired, and then felt her father cast aggrieved eyes.
How could Lord Kidd be caught? Yuanzi, one of Kidd's fans, also pouted quietly.
Before coming to the leading actress's dressing room, Ms. Yaguchi knocked on the door lightly: "Miss Juli, Detective Mori and the others are here, and... I happened to meet President Ji Xing Qixin, and invited him over!"
"President Ji Xing Qixin?" There was a sudden friction sound of pulling a chair in the dressing room, followed by a rustling sound, and the door was opened.
The beautiful actress Mu Shuli just put her hands down from the hastily tied ponytail, her eyes found Ji Xing, and she stretched out her hand in surprise: "Oh, it's really you, I'm your fan! You even came to see my performance The stage play? What an honor."
Ji Xing shook hands with her, feeling his palm was gently scratched by her fingers, and said with a smile: "Hello, Miss Shuli, looking forward to your performance tonight."
Mu Shuli was even happier: "Can I take a photo with you?"
"certainly."
Again!
Obviously my client! Mori Kogoro's face darkened again, and the Detective Boys continued to make up their swords: "Uncle has been forgotten again."
"It's normal, brother Ji Xing Qixin is the hottest star right now."
"Wow, it's so big and beautiful here!"
The children broke in first.
Mu Shuli glanced at him, showing a little bit of dissatisfaction and impatience in his eyes, and soon smiled again: "Oh, I'm so sorry, Detective Maori, I'm a little too happy to see my idol."
"Ahaha, it's okay, it's okay."
Ji Xing saw her emotional changes. It's normal for a popular female star to have a temper, but such people are usually dead in Ke Xue's stories.
He looked into the dressing room, and there was a well-behaved beauty inside.
Mu Shuli noticed this, turned sideways and introduced: "I almost forgot, this is my assistant and makeup artist, Xia Shu."
"Hello, President Ji Xing, hello Detective Mori, my name is Natsuki Sakai." Xia Shu greeted each one with a cute expression, neither warm nor cold.
This is usually a murderer.
"Wow, a lot of cosmetics."
At this time, Ayumi walked to the dressing table that the little girl liked: "This is called foundation, right? One, two...five, there are five kinds of foundation?"
This is usually a clue.
Sakai Natsuki smiled, walked over to put away the foundation and said, "Little sister, at your age, you are not yet curious about cosmetics."
Ji Xing observed Xia Shu's movements and posture, and he knew it well, and suddenly said, "Miss Xia Shu, what are you nervous about?"
The shepherd who had just led them into the dressing room was stunned, and the sound in the room also stopped.
Natsuki Sakai looked over suspiciously: "President Ji Xing, you say I... am nervous?"
She showed a cute smile: "Seeing such a big man like you, I am really a little nervous."
"Then what are you afraid of?" Ji Xing asked again.
Natsuki Sakai was stunned and remained silent.
Mu Shuli asked strangely: "President Ji Xing, what's wrong with Xia Shu?"
Mori Kogoro yelled in dissatisfaction: "Hey, Ji Xing kid, what are you doing, you scared a beautiful lady!"
"Father..." Seeing that something was wrong, Mo Lilan quietly pawed Mori Kogoro.
Ji Xing looked at Sakai Natsuki and made a decisive blow: "Those foundations, do you want someone to take them away for testing? Miss Xia Shu."
"Powder, foundation?"
Half a minute later, Mori Kogoro watched Sakai Natsuki kneeling on the ground in bewilderment, and started the prisoner's confession mode he was familiar with while crying bitterly.
"It's all her fault! Huh... I could have become a well-known makeup artist in Hollywood a long time ago, but she, but for her own sake, has been using despicable means to keep me by her side... last time... so I decided to kill her!"
who I am?
