Chapter 55 The Secret That Kid and Conan Couldn't Tell
"But eight years later, he has resurrected this year, and it is said that he is now mainly active in Japan."
"There are countless adjectives used to describe him, such as the Lu Ban of the Heisei era, or the magician under the moonlight."
"However, among these names, there is one that is most commonly known. It is said that a very young novelist was very interested in the phantom thief No. 1412, who was played like a child by police officers from various countries. He thought the number 1412 was too troublesome, so he simplified it to KID, so everyone calls him that."
"Kaitou Kidd."
At that moment, a figure descended from the high place behind them, and Conan turned around to look.
He was found to be dressed in the standard magician's attire, a conspicuous white tuxedo, a monocle over his right eye, and a cape that fluttered in the wind behind him.
Su Xingbai glanced at it and instantly felt envious.
This outfit is really cool. Next time, I'll get Kaito to get one too.
disagree?
That's impossible; he would definitely agree.
Conan stared intently at the person in front of him, a different expression in his eyes.
It truly was a memorable scene; if he weren't worried about interrupting their eye contact, he would have applauded.
But this did not stop him from taking a photo of the two of them from the side.
Polaroid cameras are great.
The photos came out immediately after I took them.
Su Xingbo looked at the photos and showed a satisfied expression. He was now completely content.
The only pity is that there wasn't a better angle; otherwise, a 360-degree shot with no blind spots would have been truly perfect.
The sound of the camera snapping away from the couple who were gazing at each other, and they all turned their attention to him.
He quickly explained, "Excuse me, I'm just a passerby. Please continue."
Conan hung up the cell phone, and doing the same thing as Kaito Kid, he put his hands in his pockets and looked at each other with a wicked smile.
Kid broke the deadlock first, walking step by step towards Conan.
"Hey little brother, what are you doing here?" Kidd asked with a smile.
Conan didn't say anything, but just smiled and turned around to light the Cloud Piercing Arrow.
The sound of the arrow piercing the clouds echoed through the sky, accompanied by a brief burst of fireworks.
"I'm setting off fireworks."
A short while later, Conan pointed ahead and said, "Hey, look, it's a helicopter! They seem to have noticed us."
"Hmph." Phantom Thief Kid sneered, "Little brother, you don't seem to be an ordinary child."
Conan turned his head and smiled: "My name is Conan Edogawa, and I'm a detective!"
"Oh~"
"Can you stay here, Mr. Phantom Thief Kid? If you don't run away soon, the helicopter will be here. Besides, Kudo-nii is here too. He's a really good guy."
Hey Hey hey.
Why do you two have to drag me into your relationship?
You're letting him stay here while simultaneously urging him to escape, which also exposes his impressive fighting skills.
Sure enough, you've fallen in love!
This is love.
love at first sight!
To Conan's surprise, Kaito Kid chuckled and didn't take it seriously at all.
Instead, he took out his cordless phone right in front of him, straightened the antenna, coughed twice, and then spoke in a deep voice while pressing the button on the phone.
"This is Officer Chaki. We have spotted Kaito Kid on the roof of the Beika Municipal Hotel. All patrol vehicles currently patrolling Beika and Beika towns, as well as all helicopter units flying over Beika town, please be aware."
"Assemble immediately at the scene mentioned above and arrest Phantom Thief Kid."
Meanwhile, at the museum entrance, Chaki Shintaro, his face ashen, said in disbelief.
"This, this guy is mimicking my voice! Wait, this isn't me, this is a trap he set, all helicopters and vehicles, come back."
Just as he was trying to salvage the situation, the cordless phone rang again.
"This is Helicopter One. We've spotted a figure resembling Kaito Kid on the roof of the Beika Municipal Hotel. It looks like the person who sent the message is Kaito Kid himself."
"what?!"
However, this was far from enough, and Phantom Thief Kid took out the radio again and said.
"Hello, this is Officer Nakamori. Attention all personnel on guard at the Beika Municipal Hotel, Kid is on the roof. Everyone, surround him immediately and make sure to catch him."
Conan, who was standing next to him, had initially planned to subdue him with a tranquilizer dart, but after witnessing his actions, he was completely shocked.
This guy is amazing! He can mimic all kinds of sounds without using any machines.
Conan couldn't figure out what the Phantom Thief Kid was up to either.
What is the purpose of doing this?
"Are you satisfied now, little detective?" Phantom Thief Kid teased with a smile.
Just as Conan was about to ask a question, the door leading to the rooftop was pushed open again, and Mori, who came up, was Nakamori Ginzo, who would become Kaito's father-in-law in the future.
"Don't move, Kidd, hands up."
"Oh, it's Officer Nakamori. Hello."
Nakamori Ginzo pointed a pistol at him with his right hand: "Hmph, stop joking. I've already deciphered your notification letter. You know perfectly well that we have a lot of police here. We suspect you might use a grappling hook to slide down from the air."
Everyone in the hotel has been checked, and guards have been stationed at the entrance. However, I never expected you to take such a roundabout route from the East Capital Iron Tower to land here. But give up on that black pearl; you have nowhere to escape now.
Kidd chuckled and explained, "The reason I came here to visit you all is just to do a preliminary exercise, because I have no intention of stealing that pearl at all."
"what?!"
"Ha, didn't I make it very clear at the beginning of that notice? April Fool's Day, of course it's fake."
After saying that, he shook the cape behind him, and the cape instantly transformed into a hang glider, with the belt attached.
Just as Nakamori and the others realized something was wrong and were about to move forward to arrest him, a flashbang slowly fell from his sleeve.
While everyone covered their eyes, unable to look straight ahead, Kaito Kid turned to Conan and smiled.
"Little brother, let me tell you, if the phantom thief is a highly skilled treasure hunter and a creative artist..."
"The detective is just someone who nitpicks and follows the phantom thief around; at best, he's just a critic." After saying that, he disappeared into the smoke.
Helicopters in the sky placed their lights on all the rooftops.
