Kamen Rider: I, Conan, am Faiz

[Phantom Thief... Kidd...]

Looking at the magician in front of him under the moonlight, Conan actually felt a little pressure in his heart, a feeling he had never experienced even when he first fought with Ophiino.

"Little brother, why are you still here so late? Aren't your family members worried?"

Kaito Kidd's voice is surprisingly soft and gentle, and it seems to have magical power that can touch people's hearts, as if the initiative is firmly in his hands.

At this time, Kaito Kid walked over with elegant and light steps, and Conan took this opportunity to carefully look at Kaito Kid's true face.

[There is not a single unnecessary movement, the monocle and the backlight perfectly obscure his features, but this Kaito Kidd should be very young, in his thirties or even in his twenties. ]

After making a general assessment of Kaito Kid in his mind, Conan quickly switched the Faiz phone in his hand to blaster mode, then raised his hand and pulled the trigger in mid-air.

"call out!"

"boom!"

After the laser beam flew into the air, it instantly exploded like fireworks, and the police force patrolling around were immediately attracted by this scene.

"Officer Nakamori! Unidentified fireworks appeared in the sky near the Haido City Hotel. Should we start a search?"

"Of course! This must be the work of Kaito Kidd! Hurry up and catch him!"

"Yes!"

After giving the order, Ginzo Nakamori quickly got into the driver's seat of the police car, with a flame of fighting spirit in his eyes!

"Damn Kidd, I'm going to catch you today no matter what! And then I'll expose your true identity to the world!"

After expressing his determination, Officer Nakamori stepped on the accelerator and sped towards the Beido City Hotel.

At the same time, on the top floor of Haido City Hotel, Conan was confronting Kaito Kid on both sides.

Conan's mouth curled up slightly: "I've been waiting for you for a long time, Kaito Kidd."

Faced with the sudden change, Kaito Kidd did not panic at all, and remained calm and composed: "It seems that you came here to welcome me, little brother. I didn't expect that you could crack the code I left behind. You should not be an ordinary child. What is your name?"

"My name is Edogawa Conan, and I am a detective."

"Oh, detective~"

After hearing Conan's brief self-introduction, Kaito Kid let out a small sigh and then clapped his hands lightly.

"Little detective, you are indeed excellent. At least compared to those self-righteous adults, your IQ completely crushes them, so I have to admit that you are really amazing."

After saying this, Kaito Kid gracefully made a farewell gesture.

Seeing Kaito Kidd's nonchalant look, Conan suddenly got angry: "Aren't you going to do something? If you just stay here, I believe the police will surround this place soon, and then you won't be able to escape."

"Thank you for your concern, little detective. However, a good magician will never worry about having too many audiences. Now it's time to let the audience take their seats."

"Nani?"

Under Conan's puzzled gaze, Kaito Kid conjured a walkie-talkie out of thin air from his cloak, then coughed lightly and brought the walkie-talkie to his mouth.

"I'm Officer Chaki. Kaito Kidd is now on the rooftop of the Haido City Hotel. All police helicopters are to immediately rush to the target airspace to block it."

After seeing Kaito Kid's actions, Conan's face suddenly changed! Because Kaito Kid could imitate other people's voices freely without any tools! And there was no flaw at all.

"What's wrong little brother, you look surprised."

After putting away the walkie-talkie, Kaito Kidd grabbed the cloak behind him to cover his body, and a faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

"Nothing to be surprised about. There is nothing in this world that a magician cannot do. Let me tell you one more thing. If a thief is an artist who steals treasures with superb skills and is very creative, then a detective is at best a nitpicking critic who follows the thief."

"What did you say!"

Hearing Kaito Kid's evaluation of his most proud profession, Conan was furious! Even the pattern of Orphino appeared faintly on his face.

"Crash!"

"We found Kaito Kidd!"

At the critical moment, several police helicopters began to hover in the air above the hotel, and beams of searchlights were directly locked on Kaito Kid, but this seemed like a means of adding luster to the protagonist on stage.

"Don't touch Kaito Kidd!"

Just as the helicopter locked onto Kaito Kid, Officer Nakamori rushed to the top floor with his men, and instantly more than ten pistols were aimed at Kaito Kid at the same time.

Facing the black muzzle of the gun, Kaito Kid remained calm and composed. He then waved and greeted Officer Nakamori at the front of the team: "It's Officer Nakamori. Long time no see."

Officer Nakamori was annoyed and said, "Humph! Stop talking about being a Kaito Kidd. You are surrounded by our police now. You can't get the Dark Star!"

"Don't worry, I didn't plan to take the Dark Star today."

"what?"

"Didn't I already mention it at the beginning of the notice? April 1st is of course April Fools' Day~"

As soon as he finished speaking, a hang glider suddenly unfolded behind Kaito Kidd. Upon seeing this, Officer Nakamori hurriedly called out to his men around him.

"Go and subdue him quickly! Don't let Kaito Kidd escape!"

"Yes!"

Just as the police officers were about to rush over to subdue Kaito Kid, Kaito Kid suddenly threw a small iron ball out of his pocket.

"Wow!"

The next moment, the small iron ball suddenly burst into a dazzling light and thick smoke, and everyone present subconsciously covered their eyes with their hands.

About five seconds later, the light and smoke all dissipated, and everyone present opened their eyes and looked, only to find that Kaito Kidd had disappeared!

"What's going on! Where is Kaito Kidd?!"

"He must not have run far! Find him quickly!"

"Headquarters! Requesting support! Please send more police officers to support us!"

Just as the police began their carpet search, Conan wanted to use his sense of smell to find Kaito Kid, but the irritating gas remaining in the air forced him to give up this idea.

[Damn it! He actually let him slip away! ]

Conan angrily punched the wall so hard that it even created spider-web-like cracks in the wall.

The next day

"Hey! Shinichi, did you see Kaito Kid last night?"

"Yeah, that guy is just an arrogant egomaniac. It makes me angry just listening to him talk!"

Recalling the experience of being fooled last night, Conan suddenly felt furious. He sat down on Kogoro's office chair and started throwing darts to vent his emotions.

Seeing Conan looking angry, Xiaolan was not so stupid as not to transform into Faiz and catch Kaito Kid. After all, if Kaito Kid gave Conan away afterwards, even if Kaito Kid was released from prison in the end, Conan would have to live in the research institute for a few decades.

Of course, Conan only has twenty years at most.

"By the way, Shinichi, why didn't you ask me to go with you? If I had been there at the time, I might have been able to help you capture Kaito Kidd."

Conan shook his head solemnly: "It's useless. Although that guy is annoying, he is indeed very capable. Officer Nakamori and I have been fooled by him since the beginning, and..."

Conan paused when he said this, then looked at Xiaolan and teased: "It was already past midnight, Xiaolan, you were sleeping like a pig. I called you for a long time but you didn't wake up, so I had to go by myself."

"Yes...is it...?"

Xiaolan's eyes widened in embarrassment, and she lowered her head and muttered, "I'm not a piglet, Shinichi, you are, and your whole family are piglets..."

"Humph."

Conan cooperated by making pig noises, which made Xiaolan couldn't help but cover her mouth and chuckle.

"Dilili!"

Just then, Xiaolan's cell phone suddenly rang, so Xiaolan quickly took out the phone and put it to her ear to answer it.

"Hey, it's Sonoko, what's going on over there? Kaito Kid has sent out another announcement!"
