"ore?"

Conan also remembered that before going to the United States, Qin Zhibo had sent a piece of ore and asked Dr. Ali to help test it.

"Is there anything special about this ore?" Conan asked.

"Of course!"

Dr. Ali raised a finger to popularize science for Conan, known as the "King of Popular Science".

"An unknown ore was recently discovered in the Kingdom of Vespania. According to inspections by scientists, it was found that the ore itself emits unknown rays that can absorb electromagnetic waves and can also produce EMP phenomena."

"Imagine if a piece of this ore is embedded on the missile head, it can easily pass radar detection and at the same time create a large-scale EMP."

Dr. Agasa's introduction opened Conan's eyes, and a question immediately emerged.

"Where did Qin Zhibo get such a powerful ore?"

Dr. A Li shook his head, "I don't know...but even if it is occasionally found in the wild, there shouldn't be much in stock, so it will be difficult to play any role."

"Because the unknown rays emitted by this ore have been confirmed to not belong to any known energy radiation on the earth, and its source can only be from the universe beyond the earth."

"It is currently generally believed that this kind of ore landed on the earth through meteorites from outer space, so the probability of forming a huge vein is unlikely."

"But according to the news, what the Kingdom of Vespagna discovered was a complete mineral vein, and the stock of ore is quite huge, even enough to change the pattern of the world!"

Change the world structure?

Conan, like his idol Sherlock Holmes, didn't know much about politics, but the name "Kingdom of Vespania" sounded like a backward monarchy.

"Where is the ore now? Have you told anyone else about it?"

Dr. Ali shook his head, "No one here knows about this except my friend."

Conan held his head, lost in thought.

Since there is very little of this kind of ore on earth, how did Qin Zhibo find it?

He has seen the appearance of that piece of ore. It is no different from an ordinary stone. If you just randomly picked up a stone on the ground, there should be no need to send it for testing, right?

While Conan was thinking about the "stone", Haibara Ai, who had been silently operating a laptop next to him, said.

"Come and see this..."

Conan and Dr. A Li looked back and saw some photos of Las Vegas last night posted by other netizens at the bottom of the page.

The broomstick hanging in mid-air, the city glowing red, the thief Crow firing flares on the streets, the thief Kidd flying in the sky, the mob smashing, smashing, and robbing...

These photos are very strange, but Haihara Ai’s mouse did not stop on these photos.

Among them was a mediocre photo of a hotel lobby.

In the hotel lobby, some people who looked like bodyguards in black were escorting two people, one of whom was Qin Zhibo with a blush on his face.

Conan was shocked, "Qin Zhibo?!"

"Mr. Qin was also in Las Vegas last night?"

Dr. A Li was also a little surprised, "It seems that Mr. Qin committed something and was caught by the staff..."

For the famous detective, this is a scandal.

But fortunately, Las Vegas is far away from Japan, and in the face of the many major events that happened in Las Vegas last night, the famous detective's drunken madness is not worth mentioning at all.

Mouri Kogoro often shows up drunkenly in various izakayas and bars in Tokyo. Who reports on this?

"Qin Zhibo is in Las Vegas... for a trip?"

Conan held his chin and thought for a moment, remembering that Qin Zhibo loved traveling, so he often met him and his Maori father and daughter at tourist destinations.

But as a famous detective, he still got drunk even though he already knew that the two phantom thieves had predicted the crime? And he was caught making trouble in the hotel?

Could it be that he... is really playful?

Conan frowned slightly, feeling that the matter was not that simple, but he had no clue. After all, the details of last night were not published online.

"It seems we can only wait until he comes back and ask questions..."

"There is also the matter of ore."

Conan secretly made up his mind to ask clearly this time.

…

Las Vegas, Star Hotel.

Qin Zhibo watched the news for a while and found that Che Zhulun was talking back and forth without any substantive conclusions, so he simply stopped reading.

He put on his clothes and came to Kuroba Kaito's room.

Dude, dunk, dunk.

After three knocks on the door, Terai Huangnosuke came out and opened the door.

"Mr. Qin, good afternoon."

"good……"

Before Qin Zhibo finished speaking, he heard the quarrel between Kuroba Kaito and Koizumi Anko coming from the room.

"You've been following me since the airport? It's really a bad idea!"

"Hey, if I hadn't come here, your life would have been taken away by the devil~"

"Even if you don't come over, I can still save my life."

"Humph~ Are you just a thief?"

Koizumi Anko pinched her waist, and she and Kuroba Kaidou were talking to each other in the living room, just like a couple.

However, Qin Zhibo knew that both Kaito and Hongzi had their own reasons not to be emotionally attached to each other.

The relationship between the two is more like that of confidants. After all, neither the identity of the Phantom Thief nor the identity of the Witch can ever be made public.

Even if he really gets married to Nakamori Aoko one day, Kuroba Kaito can never tell her, otherwise Nakamori Ginzo might end up in Aoyama Mental Hospital.

Qin Zhibo came over and acted like a good old man, "Don't quarrel, don't quarrel~"

Seeing Qin Zhibo's arrival, the two reluctantly ceased fighting, but they still looked unconvinced with each other.

He emphatically walked to Kuroba Kaito and whispered to him: "You'd better not quarrel with Anko now. Have you forgotten that she can do magic?"

After Kuroba Kaito was reminded like this, the bad memory of being treated by magic again came to mind, and he shrank his neck nervously.

In fact, Qin Zhibo reminded Kuroba Kaito for his own good.

Now Koizumi Hongzi is parasitized by the feeder from the heart, and this parasitism will amplify the desires and evils of people's hearts.

As for Koizumi Anko's current desire, apart from her tireless pursuit of magic, she should be Kaitou Kidd.

Maybe Koizumi Anko secretly flew from New York to Las Vegas this time because of the "breeder". Normally she wouldn't be so concerned about Kidd's affairs, and she would only give a few reminders at most.

Therefore, at this time, Kuroba Kaito should keep a low profile.

Otherwise, Qin Zhibo cannot guarantee what will happen...

…

After warning Kuroba Kaito, they chatted about business.

Kuroba Kaito carefully took out the gems recovered last night and placed them on the coffee table.

Under ordinary indoor lighting, the thirty-eight-sided cube emits a faint black light, making it look particularly mysterious.

"Is this the gem that can summon demons?"

Koizumi Anko looked at the gem on the coffee table curiously. Although she had read this legend from the magic book, the book did not describe what the gem looked like.

Kuroba Kaito introduced: "When I brought it back last night, the stone still didn't glow, but it suddenly glowed again this morning..."

Qin Zhibo picked up the gem with two fingers and observed it carefully. After a while, he put the gem back to its original place.

"It should be that every time the Night Demon is eliminated, it takes a day to recover."

"Otherwise, if you show up whenever you encounter darkness, wouldn't you be invincible?"

“That’s why it’s called the ‘shining cubehedron’.”

Kuroba Kaito thought it made sense and asked another extremely critical question.

"Then what should I do with this stone next?"

Qin Zhibo took a look at the people present and saw that they were all trustworthy, and then told him about the deal between Black Feather Qianying and the Nine Angels Organization.

After a while, Kuroba Kaito's face was filled with shock.

"It turns out that my mother has been doing things like that..."

During this time, Kuroba Kaito thought that his mother was really traveling in Las Vegas.

On the other hand, Terai Kinosuke next to him was relatively calm. He had always known that Kuroba Chikage was investigating the truth of that year in his own way.

At this moment, Kuroba Kaito's phone rang.

He picked up the phone and heard Kuroba Chikage's voice on the other side of the phone.
