"Gentlemen and ladies, welcome to Rice Flower Auction House. Today, we will host the annual World Treasures Auction Conference."

In the auction house not far from the Mihua Hotel, after the host finished his opening remarks, he began to introduce the first auction item.

It is the work of the famous ancient Japanese painter Kano Eitoku, Song Ying Tu

"Ah - so boring."

In the seat at the back, Kuroba Kaito almost fell asleep after listening.

Nakamori Aoko patted him dissatisfied and hummed:"I finally got my father to bring us here, you guy Can you be more serious?"

"Okay okay."

Kuroba Kaito raised his head, looked at the boring bidding above, and asked casually:"Aoko, why was Uncle Nakamori invited to the auction?"

"Of course it's because of Kaitou Kidd."

Aoko Nakamori was a little proud,"Because I was worried that Kidd would notice the treasures in the auction, the organizer specially invited my father as a security consultant."

But, he has never caught me, okay."

Kuroba Kaito secretly complained, looking at the treasures being auctioned above and shaking his head.

There are no well-known gems here.

He is not interested.

"Next, it’s our turn for the finale treasure."

Time passed unknowingly. After dozens of treasures were photographed, the host waved his hand excitedly and asked someone to bring up a long knife covered with black cloth.

"I believe everyone has heard the news. In this auction, there will be a sword belonging to the sword master Tsukahara Buden. Yes, our finale treasure is - Demon Sword Onikiri!!"

The moment the host finished speaking, he pulled back the black cloth and displayed this famous sword from the Warring States Period in front of everyone.

"This is......"

Kuroba Kaito, who was still careless at first, sat up straight, his expression unusually solemn.

He actually saw the strong blood flowing on the knife just now.

Is it an illusion?...

"quack——"

Outside the auction, on the criss-crossing wires, a crow with black wings and red eyes combed its feathers, and everything in the auction was reflected in its blood-red pupils.

After seeing a collector named Maru Denjiro, he bought the demon sword Onikiri.

It flapped its wings a few times and landed at the door of the auction, staring at the last lot that had just been escorted over.

That is also the highlight of this auction, the killing stone.

It is said that after the nine-tailed demon fox Tamamo Mae was killed, his body turned into a cursed stone, which is the killing stone.

For a long time, the Japanese people believed that the stone in the crater of Tochigi Prefecture was the killing stone and regarded it as a national treasure.

However, there are recent rumors that the stone is cracked and is not the real killing stone.

Therefore, some precious gems suspected to be killing stones appear at auctions.

The one being auctioned by Mihua Auction House this time is one of them.

"Congratulations to Mr. Maru Denjiro for purchasing the sword of the Sword Master Tsukahara Bokuden for 150 million."

"Next, let’s introduce the last lot."

The host stirred up the atmosphere with a high tone, and the ruby suspected to be a killing stone was personally escorted up by Nakamori Ginzo and two other policemen.

"Here we go, is that the killing stone?"

"So beautiful!!"

Nakamori Aoko excitedly pulled Kuroba Kaito's arm, and Kaito came back to his senses from that abnormal state.

"Something is wrong. He rubbed his brows and thought in his mind,"Whether it was the knife just now or this gem now, I have seen strange illusions. Are these two things magic items?""

Kuroba Kaito is no stranger to magic.

Because his classmate, Koizumi Anko, who is often against him, is a witch with a good foundation.

Kuroba Kaito was teased by her with magic.

"No, I have to find out about this matter."

Looking at the killing stone that was bought by Maru Denjiro again, Kuroba Kaito secretly decided to follow him later and then appear in a different identity.......

"I'm back."

Maori Detective Agency, Maori Kogoro came home drunk, only to see Xiaolan and that brat sitting on the sofa watching TV without even greeting him.

"So abominable."

Mouri Kogoro immediately clenched his fists, walked over, and gave Conan a head.

"Ouch. Conan put his head in his hands and complained:"Uncle Maori, it is very bad behavior to go home and beat your children after drinking.""

"Yes, Dad."

Xiaolan chose to side with Conan,"You are not allowed to go out to drink in the future. The family's living expenses this month are almost not enough."

"No la."

Mouri Kogoro touched his head and smiled a little sheepishly,"I went out to handle a commission and had a drink by the way."

"real?"

Xiaolan's eyes were suspicious.

"it is true."

Mouri Kogoro nodded guiltily, his smart mind turning rapidly, thinking about what kind of reason he should make up.

"Dudu——"

At this time, the phone rang.

Mouri Kogoro was relieved and ran over to answer the phone. After a moment, he straightened his back, shook the phone proudly and said:

"Let me tell you, as a famous detective, I am very busy every day."

"An employer just now asked me to help him investigate his wife. I heard that she is also an antique collector and something like that, and she is very famous in Tokyo."

"Is it Mr. Denjiro Maru?!"

Xiaolan and Conan blurted out at the same time

"How do you know?"

Moori Kogoro was stunned for a moment.

"Because it was just broadcast on TV. Xiaolan pointed to the news on TV,"Mr. Maru Denjiro, a famous antique collector, spent a lot of money to buy the sword of the sword master Tsukahara Bokuden and a ruby suspected to be a killing stone."......I heard it cost hundreds of millions in total."

"Is that so? Then I have to offer a higher price."

Mouri Kogoro's eyes lit up when he heard this.

As a famous detective

, he could tell at a glance why Mr. Maru Denjiro entrusted him to investigate his wife.

This is related to a man's dignity.

I believe Mr. Maru Denjiro will definitely Don’t mind spending a little more money.
