"That's because the eldest lady has stopped performing since her parents died in an accident ten years ago."

"Accident?" Nakamori Ginzo raised his eyebrows.

"That's right," the old man nodded, "Her parents had an accident during a certain performance. It happened to be the day when her parents just inherited the gem as the new group leader. On this important day, she didn't expect that …”

Nakamori Aoko pursed her lips unconsciously, feeling a little uncomfortable, "Anko-chan said that the ruby ​​​​is the devil's stone. It must be because of the accident."

"The eldest lady has not performed magic shows since that day. I think deep down in her heart, she probably hates magic for taking away the lives of her parents so easily. Master James was also very sad when he saw it, until he died I was worried and sighing about this before.”

"That's why Miss Judy said that before..." Nakamori Aoko thought to herself as she looked at Judy Hooper who was receiving guests in the distance.

After a while, a man named Bol came on stage to perform.

He stretched his arms skillfully, and several pigeons seemed to fly out of thin air, immediately winning cheers from the audience.

Boll put his hat on his head like a gentleman, but the hat became restless on his head.

"Oops~" He took off his hat, "Looks like there's another one on my head~"

The atmosphere at the magic show venue also reached its climax at this moment.

Judy Hooper stood in the background, looking at Boll with a dove on his head in surprise, "He's very good at it, but was he so skilled in his techniques before?"

"I'm afraid it's because this is the last chance. Not only Bol, but everyone in the magic troupe is also working hard and constantly honing their skills so that the eldest lady is willing to continue running this magic troupe. ." The old man who had just been talking to Officer Zhongmori walked up behind her.

Judy Hooper's face changed slightly: "I should have said, Robert, I will only inherit this magic troupe for two years, until you all find new jobs. If you want to continue it so much, then you can run it yourself." It would be fine if it wasn’t.”

"Yes, but the person who can lead this magic group is none other than the eldest lady." Robert said.

"I no longer want to stay in this world full of lies and deceit." Judy Hopper passed Robert and then paused, "And, I also hope that this is the last time - to incur this... Wear an ominous gem on your body.”

……

"Okay, now comes the finale of tonight's magic show. The magician in charge of the finale is——"

As the lights in the venue were turned off, the stage was suddenly shrouded in smoke.

"Hahahahaha, leave the part of the finale to me." A pure white dress appeared on the stage.

Officer Nakamori immediately slapped the table and stood up: "Phantom Thief Kidd!"

The detectives hiding in the venue and Officer Nakamori immediately chased 'Phantom Thief Kidd'.

There was a commotion in the venue.

Nakamori Aoko frowned: "I clearly promised that I won't come. I really can't believe what the thief said."

Backstage, Judy Hooper covered her mouth to prevent smoke from entering her mouth and nose.

"Captain, are you okay?" Bol ran over.

"Boll..." Judy Hopper shook her head, "I'm fine."

Just as he finished speaking, a scream suddenly came from the place where the magic troupe members were resting at the end of the stage.

Judy Hooper and Boll ran over to find the sound.

Everyone in the magic troupe was seen injured and fell to the ground in a mess.

And a group of people dressed in black were standing there, seemingly waiting for their arrival.

"Miss, please run away quickly!" Robert shouted.

"Don't worry, I'm not going to kill anyone yet." Snake raised his arm and pointed the gun at Judy Hooper. "I'll count to three. If you don't want to leave painful memories, I'll kill you right away." Hand over the jewel on your chest."

"Absolutely not, Miss! That gem is..." Robert said hurriedly while lying on the ground.

"1." Snake stepped on his back and pinned him to the ground.

"Robert!" shouted Judy Hooper.

"2."

"3."

After counting the three numbers in the blink of an eye, Snake fired directly without any hesitation.

The moment the muzzle flash came out, Boll suddenly rushed out and stood in front of Judy Hopper.

The bullet hit and Bol fell to the ground.

"Bol!" Judy Hopper yelled in panic.

"Humph, what a fool." Snake scoffed.

Seeing this scene, the injured members of the magic troupe suddenly started to tremble.

……

On the other side of the corridor

Officer Nakamori chased after 'Kidd', "Wait, Kidd!"

"boom."

The Kaitou Kidd in front of them was seen escaping. He took out a pistol from the inner pocket of his chest and shot it on the carpet on the ground in front of them.

Officer Zhongmori and his party stopped immediately.

He frowned and looked at the carpet with white smoke, and a sense of disobedience arose spontaneously.

"Kidd, you can actually shoot?!"

Seeing that Kidd had run away, they had no choice but to catch up again.

……

"Okay, Miss, you've thought enough, hand it over quickly." Snake raised his pistol again and pointed it at Judy Hopper.

"I'll give it to you. It's a cursed gem anyway." Judy Hopper took off the gem from her chest and raised her hand to throw it towards Snake.

The next moment, Bol suddenly grabbed her wrist.

"Absolutely not, Miss. You absolutely cannot hand over the gems," he said.

"Boll, you..."

Bol slowly stood up and patted the dust on his chest, "Of course, I'm completely fine. After all, I'm wearing a bulletproof vest."

"Why are you wearing that..." she asked in surprise.

"Hahaha, that's because I am..." Bol pulled out a huge white cloth from his chest and completed the transformation in an instant. He appeared in a pure white dress. He covered his body with a cloak and a confident smile on his lips. "I am Kaitou Kidd."

"You, this guy!" Snake said through gritted teeth, as if he didn't expect him to appear at all.

"But Kidd, didn't he just..." Judy Hooper asked.

"I think the fake Kid just now was probably a bait specially prepared by those guys to lure the police out of the venue." Kuroba Kaito said.

Snake snorted coldly, "You are here to snatch the gem from us, right?"

"Understand it, I'm not here to steal anything," Kuroba Kaito turned to look at Judy Hopper, "but I'm here specifically to protect you and the gem."

After speaking, he picked up three smoke bombs with his fingertips and threw them on the ground.

A smoke screen instantly enveloped the scene.

Snake waved his hand, "Hurry up and chase!"
