The Heroines Can Read My Secret Diary

Looking at the approaching Ran, Sonoko greeted her. Ran smiled back, then looked at Hakuto beside her and said, "Long time no see."

Hakuto nodded slightly, a hint of amusement in his eyes. The Ran before him was fake. It had to be said that Kaito Kid was truly talented. His disguise skills were so good that even Sonoko, Ran's close friend, didn't notice.

But unfortunately for him, hiding his true identity from Hakuto was clearly impossible. However, Hakuto didn't plan to expose Kaito Kid's identity right now.

Since he was bored anyway, he might as well play along and see what tricks Kaito Kid had up his sleeve.

The black pearl that the Suzuki Family had given him was undoubtedly the target of Kaito Kid's operation this time. And now, that black pearl was already in Hakuto's storage space. Hakuto was curious to see how Kaito Kid would steal it.

"Long time no see. Everyone who boarded the ship today received a black pearl. You have one too, right, Sonoko?"

As she spoke, she even took out a black pearl.

Sonoko pulled out a black pearl and said, "Each one looks almost identical. But unfortunately, except for the real black pearl, the others are all artificially crafted items, completely worthless."

Hakuto didn't take out his black pearl. He just said casually, "I threw mine into the sea. It's just a worthless black pearl anyway."

Giving Hakuto a glance, Sonoko didn't say anything. But the Kaito Kid disguised as Ran, on the other hand, couldn't sit still. Kaito Kid knew that the black pearl had been personally handed to Hakuto by the Suzuki Family.

'Did he really throw it into the sea?'

Kaito Kid clearly didn't believe it.

"You really threw it into the sea?"

"Who knows? Maybe I threw it, maybe I didn't."

Hakuto chuckled and didn't say anything more. A flicker of thought passed through Sonoko's eyes. Hakuto's attitude toward Ran was very strange.

Normally, there were only two possibilities. One was that Hakuto disliked Ran, but that seemed unlikely. The other was that this Ran was not the real Ran.

If this Ran wasn't the real Mouri Ran, then the only possibility was Kaito Kid?

Although Sonoko appeared not very smart, in reality, she wasn't stupid. So, with Hakuto's obvious dismissive attitude, she immediately realized that the Ran before her was probably a fake.

But since Hakuto didn't seem to intend to expose him, Sonoko naturally wouldn't expose Kaito Kid either. She'd just play along. She just hoped that nothing bad had happened to the real Ran.

And she had to admit, watching Kaito Kid being toyed with like a monkey was quite amusing for Sonoko.

Unaware that his identity had already been exposed, Kaito Kid, still disguised as Ran, deliberately sidled up to Hakuto, seemingly trying to seduce him into revealing the black pearl.

However, what Kaito Kid didn't know was that a pair of eyes were fixed on him from afar. Those eyes belonged to Eri—Ran's mother.

Eri was not far away, looking at Hakuto with a complex expression. But her gaze toward her daughter was even more complex.

From a mother's perspective, Eri almost completely believed that her daughter liked Hakuto and was therefore getting close to him.

Hakuto didn't notice Eri's gaze, so he continued playing along with Kaito Kid. Hakuto wanted to see how long Kaito Kid could keep up the act.

But honestly, knowing that beneath the appearance of Ran was a man, Hakuto found watching him act a bit disgusting.

If it weren't for the entertainment of watching the clown Kaito Kid perform, Hakuto really wouldn't have been able to stand it for another moment.

Hakuto endured the disgust and didn't expose Kaito Kid. But Eri couldn't hold back any longer. Eri stepped forward and physically separated Hakuto from "Mouri Ran".

"Ran, what are you doing!"

Eri's tone unintentionally carried a hint of anger.

Kaito Kid was completely dumbfounded, 'What was happening?'

Hakuto snickered on the side, 'This Kaito Kid had been completely stunned by Kisaki Eri.'

[Hahahaha, Kaito Kid, oh Kaito Kid, you are truly the greatest clown. But I really didn't expect Kisaki Eri to come to this party either. What I even less expected was that after seeing me interacting with Kaito Kid disguised as Mouri Ran, Kisaki Eri would directly come over angrily to confront me. Seeing that dumbfounded look on Kaito Kid's face, I almost died laughing!]

The expression on Eri's face stiffened slightly. Then, Eri became somewhat flustered. This Ran before her was not her daughter but Kaito Kid in disguise.

Seeing Eri's state, Hakuto reached out and took her hand, pulling her aside to explain. He also told her where the real Ran was so she could go find her. As for himself, he would stay here and continue toying with Kaito Kid.

Eri let out a breath and said to Hakuto, "I don't want Ran to end up like me."

"Don't worry. That won't happen."

Hakuto really wasn't interested in Ran. There was no need to worry about Hakuto getting involved with her. Seeing Hakuto agree, Eri breathed a sigh of relief and then left.

Seeing Eri like that, Hakuto couldn't help but shake his head, then returned to continue playing monkey with Kaito Kid, who was disguised as Ran.

Kaito Kid, disguised as Ran, looked at Hakuto and asked, "Is my mother okay?"

"Don't worry. She's fine."

Finally, Hakuto looked at this Kaito Kid and said, "Didn't you want to see my black pearl?"

Kaito Kid, who had been somewhat suspicious a moment ago, immediately forgot everything else and looked at Hakuto.

"I was just curious and wanted to see if everyone's black pearls were the same."

Naturally, Kaito Kid wouldn't admit that he wanted to see Hakuto's black pearl. He just made an excuse about wanting to compare whether the two black pearls were the same.
