A Windfall

Everyone turned around and saw Fujino carrying Uraji Seiran as he slowly walked over.

"Fujino- Senior, where did you just run off to?"

Sonoko turned her head and said worriedly, "Just now, Ran and I turned around and you and Officer Shiratori disappeared... We thought something had happened to you two."

"What could possibly happen to me?"

Fujino casually put Uraji Seiran down, "I just went with Shiratori to deal with some trouble."

"Miss Qinglan?!"

Mori Kogoro noticed that Uraji Seiran was bound hand and foot and questioned the two men, "What exactly did you do to Miss Aoran? Why did you tie her up?"

You mean her?

Fujino put Uraji Seiran down. "She is Scarlett."

"Scarlett?!"

Everyone was stunned by what they heard.

"That's right."

Kuroba Kaito, disguised as Shiratori Ninzaburo, walked in and explained to everyone, "We just discovered that she killed Inui Shoichi and subdued her."

"Mr. Qian, he's already been murdered by her?!"

Upon hearing this, Mori Kogoro paused for a moment, then looked at Uraji Seiran with an expression of disbelief.

"Instead of those, we should solve the mystery of the Egg of Memories first."

Fujino stepped forward and took the Egg of Memories from the hands of the burly Russian man named Sireuf Chinnikov, glancing inside. "Just as Sonoko said, the Egg of Memories actually adopts a structure similar to Rose nesting doll."

According to the design drawings by Kousaka Kiichi, who was known as the Last Wizard of the Century, this red egg is actually called the Egg of Memories.

However, this single Egg of Memories is only a part of the whole Egg of Memories. Only by combining the green Egg of Memories with the red Egg of Memories can the true Egg of Memories be obtained.

"Indeed, there are grooves here, which should be used to place another Egg of Memories."

The burly Russian man walked over, glanced inside the red Egg of Memories, and nodded. "However, we still need to compare it with the other Egg of Memories to be certain..."

"I had expected this to happen."

Kuroba Kaito pulled out the Egg of Memories, which he had stolen the night before, from his travel bag. "I borrowed this egg before I came here."

Mori Kogoro cast a suspicious glance at Kuroba Kaito and asked doubtfully, "You didn't steal it, did you?"

"How could this be..."

Kuroba Kaito chuckled awkwardly, then handed the Egg of Memories to Fujino: "Now that the other Egg of Memories is here, Detective Fujino, your reasoning can be confirmed, right?"

Fujino nodded and accepted the Egg of Memories.

He put the green egg into the red egg.

The two eggs thus fit together perfectly and became one egg.

Then, he took out a flashlight and walked straight to the platform in the secret room.

First, place the flashlight on the platform, and then place the Egg of Memories on it as well.

Then the Egg of Memories began to emit a dim red light. Gradually, the outer shells of the two Egg of Memories began to become transparent, and the golden thrones carved with the Nicholas II family inside began to slowly rise and turn the pages of the album.

Light shines through the ingenious internal structure onto the album, and finally shines out from the 'gem' at the top.

Countless black and white images appeared on the roof of the dome structure.

The above is a photo of Nicholas II and his family.

"That's why this Emperor's Easter Egg is named the Egg of Memories."

Fujino looked at the picture on the dome and said in a deep voice, "The Last Wizard of the Century used ingenious optical techniques to create an Easter egg full of memories."

"Are these photos really of Nicholas II and his family?!"

Suzuki Sonoko looked up at the photos on the surrounding dome and blinked. "I never imagined that these two eggs would hide such a secret..."

Conan, meanwhile, stared at the photograph on the wall, lost in thought.

How does Fujino know so much...?

And the Egg of Memories...

Suddenly, as if he had figured something out, he turned to look at Fujino.

It seems that Fujino realized that Shiratori was Kaito Kid Goto he boarded the Shiratori yesterday.

And it seems this guy is in cahoots with that Kaito Kid.

Hateful...

I'm a little unwilling to accept it.

But then he thought about it again and felt relieved.

She immediately looked up at the photos on the wall, pointed to one of them and said, "Miss Xia Mei, the person in that photo looks like your great-grandfather!"

"Well?!"

Kousaka Natsumi looked up and followed the direction Conan was pointing, and saw a picture of a man and a woman sitting on a bench. "So, that was my grandmother?"

"Finally, I've met him..."

The memory of the Egg of Memories gradually faded.

Darkness returned to the surroundings.

Having uncovered the secrets of the Egg of Memories, this treasure hunt came to a successful end.

After seeing these pictures, the Rose diplomat gave up the idea of retrieving the Egg of Memories.

Suzuki Sonoko said she could talk to her father about it.

Just before everyone was about to leave the castle.

Fujino specifically sought out Kousaka Natsumi and asked, "Ms. Kosaka, do you have some time?"

Kousaka Natsumi looked at Fujino with a puzzled expression. "Detective Fujino, is there something you need from me?"

"There are some things."

Fujino nodded and said, "I wonder if we could find a place to talk alone?"

"That's certainly possible..."

Confused, Kousaka Natsumi led Fujino to her bedroom inside the castle.

As soon as Fujino entered the room and sat down, he got straight to the point. "Miss Kosaka, your grandmother was actually Maria, the third daughter of Nicholas II, the last emperor of the Romanov Dynasty."

"My great-grandmother was Princess Maria?!"

Kousaka Natsumi seemed somewhat surprised; she hadn't expected her grandmother to be like this...

"That's right. Your great-grandfather Kiichi fell in love with Maria, and after the Russian Revolution, the two returned to Japan and had your great-grandmother. You should know what happened after that... Among the photos in the Egg of Memories was a picture of Princess Maria, who looked exactly like your great-grandmother."

He paused, then continued, "However, I personally advise you not to reveal your identity as a descendant of the Tsar. After all, if you do, it could cause you a lot of trouble... Your great-grandfather probably didn't leave any photos of your great-grandmother and hid her identity because of this."

"I understand... I'm already very content just to know that my grandmother was Princess Maria ..."

Kousaka Natsumi chuckled and said, "Thank you for telling me this, Detective Fujino."

"I just feel that as my client, you have the right to know about your background."

Fujino had no intention of hiding this matter.

As the client, Kousaka Natsumi has the right to know her own identity.

As for what happened next...

That's none of his business.

After receiving a million yen commission from Kousaka Natsumi, Fujino followed Kuroba Kaito and took Uraji Seiran to the police station.

This time he reaped quite a harvest.

The Suzuki family gave a commission of seven million yen, and they earned another two million yen through the system and Kousaka Natsumi.

He now has a balance of 9.23 million yen.

A wave of profits has been made.

Night falls, at the Fujino family's second-floor detective agency.

The rain was falling lightly and intermittently.

Fujino stood at the window of the detective agency, gazing at Ran across the Ran who was questioning Conan, a slight smile playing on his lips.

He took out a handful of Sunflower Seeds from his pocket and started cracking them open.

What goes around comes around; no one escapes the wrath of Heaven.

If you eat someone else's melon, you have to be prepared to be eaten back.

As for whether Conan will directly reveal his identity.

He glanced down at 'Kudo Shinichi' walking into the Mori Detective Agency downstairs, but wasn't worried about it.

Soon, Conan and Kuroba Kaito arrived downstairs and began a deduction about [Fujino and Kaito Kid teaming up to capture Scarlett and unravel the secret of the Egg of Memories].

What you said makes a lot of sense, but is it actually true...? Guess?

Kuroba Kaito snapped his fingers, and the pigeon that had been taken to Ran's house to heal flew into his hand.

Conan: "..."

Can the riddle teller die?

Then, the surroundings began to gather around Kuroba Kaito, and soon he transformed into a flock of white pigeons and flew into the night sky in a line.

When Ran came downstairs, she only saw Conan and a flock of pigeons flying away.

While the others were distracted, Kuroba Kaito slipped into the alley next door under the cover of night and completed the magic trick.

But as soon as he entered the alley, he turned a corner and met Ai, and bumped into Fujino.

Kuroba Kaito looked at Fujino, who seemed to see right through him, and was speechless again.

Why is this guy always so elusive?

In the rain, beside the railing of a large bridge.

"Thanks for the ride and the coffee!"

Kudo Shinichi Kuroba Kaito, holds a canned coffee, leans on the railing, and gazes at the dark sea in the distance amidst the rain.

Fujino leaned against the railing, one elbow resting on it, holding the same canned coffee, and didn't reply.

"You're really cold."

Kuroba Kaito took a sip of coffee and sighed.

"I'm just treating different people differently..."

Fujino picked up his coffee and took a sip. As if remembering something, he suddenly said, "By the way, when you impersonate Kudo Shinichi in the future, be careful not to do anything too outrageous."

"What, are you interested in that girl?"

Kuroba Kaito seemed to have discovered something new, and a grin spread across his face.

"Ran is a girl with a hard life, kind and gentle. I used to receive a lot of help from her."

As she spoke, Fujino glanced coldly at Kuroba Kaito: "Of course, it's fine if you do it, but I won't hold back then."

"You really are terrifying."

Kuroba Kaito didn't know if it was because he got wet in the rain or what, but as he recalled the scenes from before, he suddenly shivered.

"If I say that again, I'll make you pay for the coffee later."

Fujino glanced at him.

"Tsk."

Kuroba Kaito his tongue, then asked with a puzzled look, "You seem completely unsurprised that I dressed up as Kudo Shinichi?"

"Who knows why you wanted to impersonate Kudo Shinichi?"

"That doesn't seem to be the case, does it?"

Kuroba Kaito chuckled. "You should know who that brat is by now, right?"

"Does that brat have any other identities?"

Fujino stretched and leaned lazily against the bridge railing. "Who knows?"
