The Split-Actress in Conan's World

Chapter 34 The Phantom Thief and the Detective

Chamu Shintaro pinched his chin and thought for a while: "It does make sense."

"As expected of the Great Detective Mori!" Shiro Suzuki praised.

Hey hey...

Conan felt tired as he watched these adults.

"Okay! From Group C to Group E, gather near the Beika Activity Center!" Chaki Shintaro really arranged the security in this way.

"Yes!"

"Uncle Shilang," Lin Chiyu suddenly said, "If you have enough manpower, please send two helicopters to look after the roof of the Beihu Hotel."

Conan looked over when he heard the sound, and sure enough, he saw a watch on Rin Chiyu's hand. He curled the corners of his lips and said to himself, "As expected."

With that guy's insight, it's impossible that he didn't see Kaito Kid's secret code.

When the moon separates the two, it means the moment when the moon intervenes between the artificial satellite and the sun. Therefore, the BS radio station will be cut off from power between midnight and 12:4 in the morning.

The abbreviation of “Black Star” in English is exactly BS!

Being invited on the waves actually refers to "radio waves", so Kaito Kidd will come from the direction of the radio waves.

The BS radio station's radio waves are transmitted from 45 degrees from south to west, with an elevation angle of 42.3 degrees. Judging from the Rice Flower Museum, the location is exactly on the rooftop of the Beido Hotel!

That guy Kidd still likes this kind of confusing riddle.

Thinking back to the last confrontation, when he had boasted that he wanted to steal the clock tower, Conan couldn't help but laugh out loud with excitement.

Let’s compete again!

As the police waited anxiously, the time finally came to 11 o'clock in the evening.

A man in white quietly descended on the rooftop of Beihu Hotel.

Kaito Kidd pinched the edge of his top hat, and his cloak fluttered in the evening breeze, as if he was walking on the moonlight, mysterious and elegant.

He noticed a small figure squatting in the corner of the rooftop and walked over curiously.

"Hey kid, why are you here?"

Conan didn't look back and continued to fiddle with something. After a while, a beam of fire flew into the air and exploded into a dazzling firework.

"I'm setting off fireworks."

Kaito Kid's attention was attracted by the gorgeous fireworks. Conan stood up, took the opportunity to raise his watch and fired an anesthetic needle.

Fortunately, Kaito Kidd's reaction was quick and he avoided the sneak attack in time.

After narrowly avoiding danger, he couldn't help but laugh out loud: "It seems like you have a talent for learning magic."

"Fool, magic is just a trick to fool the audience. I'm a detective who seeks the truth!"

At this time, the police below had noticed the fireworks and began to gradually move towards this side. The helicopter that was previously deployed also quickly flew above the two people.

Rin Chiyu was on one of the helicopters. He had been hovering nearby early, so he rushed over immediately.

The searchlight shone on Kaito Kidd, who grabbed his cloak to half cover his body and looked helpless.

"Hehehe..."

With a chuckle, Kaito Kid took out a walkie-talkie and said in a playful tone: "A good magician is one who makes the audience know that they are being fooled, but they are happy to accept it!"

His voice suddenly changed, becoming the deep and rough voice of Officer Chaki: "I'm Chaki! Kaito Kidd was found on the roof of the Haido Hotel!"

"Call all vehicles on duty near Mihua Cup Households, and mobilize all helicopters over Mihua City..."

He looked at Conan provocatively and winked playfully.

"Quickly rush to the scene and arrest Kaito Kidd!"

Soon, the real Officer Chamu yelled loudly in the channel: "No, it was a trap set by that guy! All vehicles and helicopters return immediately, don't act rashly!"

The contradictory instructions confused all the police officers.

"Report to the officer, Helicopter No. 7 saw a person who looked like Kaito Kid at the scene, and the signal seemed to be sent by him!" The police officer nearby received the news.

Chaki Shintaro put down the walkie-talkie angrily, wondering what Kaito Kid was up to.

Lin Chiyu's calm voice appeared on the channel: "Dear officers, I am Lin Chiyu on helicopter No. 7. Please listen to me."

His tone was so calm that many police officers who were overwhelmed by the orders sobered up a lot.

"Currently, Kaito Kidd is on the rooftop of the Haido Hotel, but he deliberately disguised his voice to issue such an order. His purpose is to gather all the police forces there so that he can disguise himself and fish in troubled waters."

"We already have three helicopters rushing to the sky above the scene. Kaito Kid cannot deploy his hang glider to escape, and the entrances and exits of each floor of the Haido Hotel are guarded by Inspector Nakamori, who has dealt with Kaito Kid many times. He has no chance of escaping."

"Everyone, please hold your ground according to the arrangements made before the operation. Do not lose your composure due to Kaito Kidd's false orders."

Kaito Kidd was holding the walkie-talkie and was stunned when he heard these words.

Conan smiled as his plan came true, unlike the last time when he had to fight alone, this time he had teammates with IQs that could match his!

"What a shame, your performance doesn't look very enjoyable."

"Let's capture him without mercy, Kaitou Kidd!"

"Ha ha ha ha!!!"

Kaito Kidd let go of his cloak, letting it fly up in the airflow created by the helicopter. He covered his face with one hand and laughed wildly, completely unaware that he was in a desperate situation.

He stood on the edge of the roof, half of his body suspended in the air.

Conan's pupils shrank slightly.

Impossible, right? !

He immediately ran over and reached out to grab him.

Kaito Kidd curled the corners of his lips slightly, put one hand in his pocket, pinched the brim of his hat with the other hand, bowed slightly, and made a gesture of farewell.

"As a gift for April Fools' Day, I will give you an unforgettable performance tonight."

He lowered his voice, and the last sentence was heard only by Conan: "Remember, little detective, if the thief is a creative artist, then the detective will only follow the thief and nitpick..."

"At best, he is just a critic."

Facing Conan's incredulous gaze, he smiled with satisfaction, his smile like a falcon that is fully focused on its successful hunt, proud and aggressive.

The coverage of the searchlights seemed to have created a stage specifically for him.

He fell straight back without a single drop of movement.

Conan leaned half of his body forward and looked down, only to see Kaito Kid's crazy smile and his finger raised to his lips.

"Three, two, one."

bang——

A cloud of smoke exploded in the air, and countless white doves flew out of it and soon disappeared into the night sky.

Where is the trace of Kaito Kidd?

Conan frowned solemnly.

There was no hook or anything like that on the edge of the rooftop, and there was no sight of Kaito Kidd gliding away, so how did he disappear in the middle of the fall?

Lin Chiyu jumped down from the helicopter along the rope ladder and landed on the rooftop.

He walked behind Conan and said lightly, "Don't move."

Then a piece of paper was torn from behind him.

The stick figure of Kaito Kidd showed his teeth bared openly, as if mocking their failure.

How can it be?

Conan is very sure that he has no contact with Kaito Kid at all, so where did this piece of paper come from?

There was no one else on the rooftop except them, and Brother Lin had been in the helicopter and had just come down.

Kaito Kidd...

Holmes of the Heisei era received a challenge.

A fire of desire to win ignited in his eyes.

Rinshakuha took a picture of the paper and then stuck it back on Conan's back.

Hey hey!

Conan stretched out his arm with great effort to reach the paper and tore it off again with difficulty.

[4 month 19 day]

[I will go to the Queen Elizabeth departing from Yokohama and obtain the real Black Star]

【Kaito Kidd】

The next day, at the home of Zhongsen Police Department.

“Ah Qiu!!”

Kuroba Kaito sneezed miserably, and the ahoge on his head trembled.

"I told you not to listen to Qingzi, now you really have a cold!"

Aoko Nakamori was wearing an apron and busying herself in the kitchen, cooking egg porridge in the pot.

Wrapping himself tighter in the blanket that Aoko had given him, Kuroba Kaito felt a lot better.

"I've already told you that only idiots don't catch a cold!" He was still being stubborn.

But no matter who comes, they will catch a cold.

After all, he was hanging on the wall outside the building with a mirror on his head, and was blown by the wind all night.

Although you looked very handsome when you disappeared out of thin air, it was really embarrassing to put on a black robe in a short period of time and then stop suddenly and hang on the wall.

The warm egg porridge was placed in front of him. Qingzi came over to feel the temperature of his forehead and felt that he was indeed much better, and his heart calmed down.

After the egg porridge was served, it was deliberately left to cool for a while so that it would not be too hot. Heiyu Kaito put spoonful after spoonful of it into his mouth, and his mind couldn't help but go blank.

This kind of life is really comfortable.

But his father's death still weighed on him like a mountain, making him dare not indulge in such an easy life.

There was no telling how much more evil that organization would do. Even without talking about revenge, he didn't want Pandora to fall into their hands. God knew what a group of bad guys would do with it.

Kaito Kidd has to continue his activities, always and always.

Until the group of guys hiding in the darkness are completely wiped out.

"Are you still feeling dizzy?" Nakamori Aoko asked with concern when she saw that his eyes were a little dazed.

Kuroba Kaito came back to his senses and acted like he deserved a beating again: "The porridge you cooked is too bland, there's no salt at all!"

Veins popped out on Qingzi's head and he clenched his fists.

"It's good enough to have something to eat. If you keep talking nonsense, I'll make a fish feast tonight!"

"Please don't do this, Master Aoko!"

He slid to his knees very easily.

......

"Hey, Conan," Mao Lilan collected all the empty beer cans on the table and looked at Conan who was playing video games worriedly, "Did you hear what I said?"

"Ah?" Conan turned around, his hand still on the game controller.

"I'm asking about your parents."

After cleaning up the garbage, Mao Lilan walked behind him with her hands behind her back, with visible sadness between her brows.

"Oh......"

"Oh what?! They left you here alone after they were transferred overseas. This is really outrageous!"

"Aren't you too pitiful in this case?" she said indignantly.

"No, that won't happen." Conan laughed dryly.

Maori Kogoro also joined the fight. He crossed his arms and said, "That's right. Not only have you never met your parents, you haven't even received a letter from them. There is no news at all."

Conan's heart skipped a beat.

This is terrible. Are they going to investigate the matter of my parents to the end?

After he became a child, in order to live here, he lied to them and said that his parents went to work overseas.

But then he thought, Kudo Yusaku and Kudo Yukiko do live abroad, so it can't be considered a lie, right?

Maori Kogoro used his brain for a rare moment: "Oh, I remember that this kid was left here by Dr. Agasa, right?"

"Yeah." Mao Lilan nodded.

"Then go ask the doctor how to contact his parents."

Conan was furious and didn't know how to fool him, so he just rushed over and argued: "No, no... No way!"

"Why, can't you contact your parents?" the uncle asked with a squint.

Just as Conan and Mouri Kogoro were fooling around, the doorbell rang outside the door.

The visitor was very well-mannered. He pressed the button three times without haste and then waited quietly outside the door.

"Come, come!" Mao Lilan went to open the door.

"Hello, my name is Edogawa Fumiyo. I'm sorry to bother you." A graceful and quiet middle-aged woman stood outside the door. "I'm here to pick up Xiaonan."

Mao Lilan heard this and turned back happily and shouted: "Conan, someone is here to pick you up!"

"Look, your mother is here!"

"My mom...huh?"

Conan broke out in a cold sweat.

Edogawa Fumiyo walked up to him and a few tears quickly flowed from the corners of her eyes. She hugged Conan tightly, and her voice was a little tearful because of her longing.

"Xiao Nan, I'm sorry for leaving you here all alone. You must be very lonely, right? Did you eat well and sleep well?"

She held Conan's face and looked left and right, "I'm sorry you've been wronged, don't worry, mom is here to take you home!"

After that, she hugged Conan again.

Conan's back was covered with goose bumps, and his whole body was shaking because of this absurd scene, and he was terrified!

"Who are you? I don't know you!"

He quickly jumped away and stayed away from the woman.

"she is not......"

Mao Lilan looked at the two people in confusion.

"Oh, this kid is being naughty again. It's also my fault for leaving him alone for so long." Edogawa Fumiyo stood up without any embarrassment, wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, and took out a business card from her bag.

"This is my business card. My husband and I are currently working in a company overseas. I finally got the chance to return home, so I came to see Conan right away."

Conan felt even colder in his heart.

Edogawa Conan is just an identity he made up. There is no trace of this person in the society at all. How could there be a mother named Edogawa Fumiyo!

There is definitely something wrong with this person!

Conan realized that if he quarreled here, it would only put Xiaolan and Uncle Maori in danger, so he stopped struggling.

"Then I will take Xiaonan away. Thank you very much for taking care of him these days. I will definitely come to thank you again someday." Several people walked downstairs to the office and said goodbye beside Edogawa Fumiyo's car.

Maori Kogoro smiled and replied: "Okay, I'll be waiting for your thank-you gift at home anytime."

Edogawa Fumiyo put Conan in the passenger seat, sat in the driver's seat herself, started the car and left.

"Who are you!"

Seeing that he was getting further away from the Maori family, Conan finally couldn't help but question this strange "mother".

"I'm your mother, Conan-kun?"

"No! My mother is..."

Edogawa Fumiyo smiled coldly, and his voice suddenly dropped and became a little cold.

"Kudo Yukiko."
