Episode 746: Kaito Kid VS Makoto Kyogoku (Part 1)

Scenario: Sonoko has decided to introduce Makoto to her parents. Her father approves of Makoto but her mother doesn't. Makoto is going to prove himself by protecting the jewel which is the target of Kaitou Kid.

Sonoko has decided to introduce Makoto to her parents. But while her father wholely approves of Makoto, especially as he is a fan of martial arts competitions himself, her mother in turn is strictly against a union between her younger daughter, as the prospective heir of the Suzuki Corporation, and an (in her eyes) uneducated, fight-obsessed rapscallion. Just then Sonoko receives a phone call from Ran, who informs her of Kaitou Kid's newest intention of stealing a priceless jewel from his self-declared archnemesis Jirokichi Suzuki. But as she expresses her excitement to her uncle, Makoto hears Sonoko calling Kid by his honoric "-sama", and becomes highly suspicious about her attention for that notorious master thief.

A little while later, after many concluded simulation runs and scenario calculations, Jirokichi Suzuki has to face the bitter reality that all measures he and his technicians have thought of to apprehend Kaitou Kid will actually be less than sufficicent to prevent the young master thief from taking Jirokichi's latest bait, the Alexandrite Green Emperor.

Deeply depressed, Jirokichi considers cancelling the exhibition when a security guard (looking the worse for wear) announces the arrival of Makoto, who has spontaneously given up his return flight and smashed his way to the front of Jirokichi's mansion to request that Jirokichi lets him join the security force guarding the jewel. At first Jirokichi refuses, but when Sonoko calls him up to inquire about Makoto's exact whereabouts, and when Jirokichi learns of Makoto's phenomenal victory record, he swiftly changes his mind about the young man's offer and sends a demonstration video to Superintendent Chaki and Inspector Nakamori. However, amidst the slack-jawed policemen witnessing Makoto's fighting prowess lurks Kaitou Kid in disguise, who merely shows amusement at this new, if unusual challenge.

Later on, as Makoto spends the night in the Suzuki Museum to familiarize himself with the battleground, Tomoko Suzuki shows up and suggests that they enter a bet. At the same time, Sonoko phones the great news of the impending clash between Makoto and Kid to Ran when Kid interrupts her conversation by appearing at her room's balcony, and he also offers her to enter a bet with him.
