The famous criminal in the world of Conan

Chapter 599: Challenge Kidd

Two days later, Bai Masong's family

Miwako Sato looked at the newspaper in front of her with a look of surprise on her face.

"Respectfully inform Kaito Kidd that the jewel blue miracle you have always wanted, this miracle of the sea, is currently adorning the roof of my large museum in Shiodome. If you want to get it, come and get it in person!"

"Suzuki Jirokichi, advisor to the Suzuki Group."

Sato Miwako put down the newspaper and looked at Hakuba Matsu and Huihara Ai who were eating breakfast beside her with an incredible look on her face.

"This old man, he actually provoked Kaito Kidd like this?"

"There were some surprises,"

Haibara Ai was eating blueberry toast and speaking incoherently.

She had heard Hakumasong and Sato Miwako talk about this incident two days ago. She originally thought it was just a joke, but she didn't expect it to be published in the newspaper today.

"That's not surprising at all,"

Bai Masong smiled faintly, then put on his formal suit for work today.

"You don't know Uncle Suzuki Jiroji."

"He said that day that he would get whatever he wanted, and Kaito Kidd was no exception."

“She’s very persistent.”

"But......"

Sato Miwako quickly drank a mouthful of milk, and then complained to Bai Masong speechlessly,

"Just because someone robbed the front page of a story, you're spending a lot of money to provoke Kaito Kidd. Aren't you just being bored?"

As she spoke, she counted on her fingers.

"Look, buying this blue miracle and the pure gold statue is a huge sum of money, and then there is the cost of the newspaper to provoke Kaito Kidd, plus dealing with Kaito Kidd is another huge sum of money."

"Uncle Jiroji is indeed worthy of being the super-rich man of the Suzuki Group!"

Others pay for their own little hobbies, but the rich want to play big and have a "universal celebration."

Haibara Ai also nodded silently. When she thought about how she had to worry a lot when buying a Prada bag, while others just spent a lot of money with just a wave of their hands, she suddenly felt sad.

"You are wrong about this,"

Bai Masong immediately pointed out the cognitive errors of Sato Miwako and Haibara Ai.

"Don't think that Uncle Jiroji is acting on his own accord."

"On the contrary, his behavior is beneficial to all parties."

"Eh?"

Neither Sato Miwako nor Haibara Ai understood.

Is there any benefit to this?

"Although Uncle Jiroji has been spending money, he has also been making money."

Bai Masong smiled faintly.

"Although each of his activities costs a lot, they make him famous. With the fame, the Suzuki Group can take advantage of the situation and use the fame to make money back."

"For example, this time he provoked Kaito Kidd."

"This kind of thing would definitely not be possible without the support of Sonoko's father, Uncle Shilang."

"He supports it because although there is some investment in the early stage of interaction with Kaito Kid, once Kaito Kid appears, it can gain a lot of popularity and exposure, and then drive traffic to surrounding areas including this museum."

"After the event is over, you can label a place with various tags, such as 'Phantom Thief Kid's appearance', 'Phantom Thief Kid's final scene', 'What Kaito Kid wants to steal', etc...."

"If it succeeds, the Suzuki Group can hype it up and organize the second season of Kaito Kid's Revenge. If it fails, Kaito Kid didn't really steal the things, so the things will be returned, and the labor costs will definitely not be enough to cover the money earned later, so it's still a big profit."

"Good, awesome..."

Miwako Sato was stunned. She really couldn't imagine that such an operation could be possible.

Haibara Ai listened to what Hakumasong said, looked at the blueberry toast in front of her, and took another big bite.

Evil capitalist!

Really anything can become a weapon for them to exploit the people!

Seeing that the two seemed to understand something, Bai Masong continued,

"In fact, you should not regard this as a showdown between Uncle Jiroji and some thief. Just think of it as a commercial activity in which a company hired a celebrity to promote it."

"Kaito Kidd is the star, and this star doesn't need to pay for his appearance. He brings all his own equipment and props, and he also prepares his own performance. The Suzuki Group only needs to pay for the scene setting."

“Isn’t it easy to understand if you think about it this way?”

"Uh...it seems so."

Miwako Sato was silent for a moment and nodded helplessly.

Although she didn't want to admit it, she couldn't refute it. She knew that Bai Masong was right.

Bai Masong tied his tie, looked at the two girls lovingly, and said softly,

"I'm telling you these things not to explain anything, but to tell you some basic common sense."

“Being in this family, sometimes you need to know a lot of things.”

"Woo..."

After hearing what Hakubamatsu said, Sato Miwako and Haibara Ai both lowered their heads and ate, and responded in a sullen voice.

"Ah,"

Bai Masong looked at the two of them and smiled helplessly.

"Let's go, it's time to go to work, it's time to go to school."

"Oh,"

Miwako Sato quickly finished her breakfast and put on her coat.

At this moment, she suddenly thought of a point.

"Hey, Asong, I have another question."

"Uncle Jiroji and the Suzuki Group, why are they so sure that Kaito Kid will show up for the appointment?"

At this time, Haibara Ai also raised her head and looked at Hakuba Song.

She was also very curious about this question. After all, the wealthy man had obviously set up a tight net and was waiting for you to get in.

On one hand, you are waiting for the opportunity to attack, and on the other hand, you are facing the unknown. Under such circumstances, no normal person would honestly accept the challenge, right?

After all, the initiative is in other people's hands.

"hehe,"

Bai Masong shook his head, smiled softly, then took out his mobile phone from his pocket and handed it to the two of them.

"I'm so sorry, Kaito Kid has already sent a text message to Uncle Jiro about the upcoming appointment."

what? !
