Conan: I can hear the murderer's voice

Chapter 197 Top Idol, Magician Under the Moonlight

The afterglow of the setting sun gradually faded away, and the neon lights lit up the dark city like stars.

At the intersection of the commercial street where the transparent display cabinet of "Purple Nails" was placed, there were two helicopters hovering in the night sky above.

Nakamori Ginzo and his subordinates dressed in plain clothes and carefully observed the crowd for any suspicious persons.

In order to make headlines, Jirokichi not only bought the treasures that interested Kidd, but also set up a dragnet at the crossroads.

The police officers all felt that Kidd would not be able to escape this time, and Inspector Nakamori was just afraid that the Kaito Kid would not come.

But not long after, accompanied by the outbreak of enthusiastic cheers from the crowd, a figure in white under the moonlight shuttled through the night sky!

"Lord Kidd!"

"Magician under the moonlight, please steal my heart too!"

"Kidd! Kidd! Kidd!"

"After you get the gem, please disguise yourself as me and leave! It would be my honor!"

When the fans below saw their idol appear, they cheered enthusiastically.

Qingzi frowned and prayed silently in her heart.

[I hope the thief will not get away with it again this time]

The police officer from the Second Investigation Section, Jirokichi, and his subordinates could not help but show joy on their faces when they saw this scene.

[As long as Kidd dares to land on the ground and touch the transparent display case, he will never be able to escape! ]

Conan's mouth corners lifted slightly.

[Although I don't know what grudge you have with Lin Xuan, I must teach that guy a lesson! ]

Only Lin Xuan looked normal, his forensic eye able to display different people's data and panels above his head.

For example, Lin Xuan can check Qingzi's measurements at any time.

However, Kaito Kidd, who was flying quickly above the intersection on a hang glider, could not see any data even after activating his Forensic Eye.

Lin Xuan came to the conclusion immediately.

[It's a dummy, Kidd is hiding somewhere else]

With a "puff" sound, a large amount of smoke almost instantly spread out from the body of "Kaito Kidd" in the air and spread out to the surroundings, covering the entire intersection in a blink of an eye.

"Don't panic!"

Inspector Nakamori loudly reminded his subordinates:

"Everything is going according to plan!"

"As long as Kidd dares to touch the purple nails, his true face will be revealed tonight!"

When the smoke cleared, the magician in white was seen standing on top of the glass display case in the middle of the intersection, with the pair of half-heeled crystal sandals held in Kidd's hands while he was wearing gloves.

With just one glance in the moonlight, Kidd was sure that the gem inlaid on the sandals was not the Pandora he was looking for.

At the same time, one of the sandals was a fake equipped with a transmitter.

[Want to use a transmitter to track location? Too naive]

The magician looked in the direction of his childhood sweetheart in the crowd, and noticed Lin Xuan holding hands with Qingzi. He couldn't help but reveal a sneer.

[Since you dared to attack Qingzi, I will use this weird old man to teach you a lesson, you pervert.]

Although he never confessed his feelings, Kaito took Aoko for granted as his own property.

The fans made even more enthusiastic noises:

"Master Kidd! Master Kidd! Master Kidd!"

Jirokibi Kid's fans were even more excited:

"Tomorrow, and for the next week, the front page headlines will be mine!"

The old man pressed the start switch, and the four solid giant nets set up at the intersection were instantly launched to a height of twenty meters.

The catapult net surrounded part of the crowd, the police officer who was arresting Kidd, and the Phantom Thief in the center of the intersection.

The hang glider cannot take off vertically, and the twenty-meter-high net on all four sides is equivalent to blocking Kidd's escape route.

For the first time, Conan felt worried about Kid.

[The grandfather of the Suzuki family plays so big? 】

Under normal circumstances, he would be the enemy of the Phantom Thief, but now Conan hopes that Kidd can teach Lin Xuan a lesson to help him vent his anger.

Zhongsen Police Department shouted proudly:

"Kid! Where are you going to escape this time?"

Even Lin Xuan was intrigued. After confirming with his forensic eyes, the person standing on top of the transparent display case this time was Kuroba Kaito himself.

The four burly men closest to the display case have taken action and rushed towards Kaito Kidd.

Kidd showed a sneer at the corner of his mouth:

"Old man from the Suzuki family, although you want to challenge me, I don't think you have enough strength..."

Before he finished speaking, he threw out a smoke bomb and the entire intersection was covered with smoke again.

However, this was also expected by Inspector Nakamori and his colleagues.

The giant nets launched into the air from four directions at the intersection were connected together, and anyone trapped in the net had no chance to escape.

Even if Kidd can disguise himself as someone else in a short period of time, the police will confirm his true identity by pinching his face.

Twenty seconds later the smoke cleared and Kidd disappeared.

Ginzo Nakamori glanced at the large net and did not find any loopholes.

The police chief couldn't help but feel secretly delighted.

[Kid, accept your fate! This time we can finally wash away the shame of Investigation Section 2! ]

However, before he could instruct his subordinates to confirm the identities of everyone in the network, the crowd shouted in surprise towards the rooftop of the commercial building on the west side of the intersection.

In Ginza, where every inch of land is valuable, commercial buildings are at least 50 meters high.

Several TV stations are trying to take advantage of the popularity by broadcasting Kidd's actions tonight live from the rooftop of a commercial building.

Nichiren TV's luck was extremely good, because at this moment Kaito Kid appeared in front of the live broadcast team!

Suzuki Jirokichi below was dumbfounded:

"The rooftop of that commercial building is at least sixty meters above the ground!"

"Kid's glider obviously can't take off and land vertically, so how did he teleport?"

Inspector Nakamori gave a wink to his subordinates, and they immediately ran towards the west building.

As for Kid, he appeared elegantly in the live broadcast of Nichimi TV. He gently put down the fake transmitter and continued to taunt Jirokichi:

"I'll take the real purple nails tonight. As for the other genuine one, I don't want to play the easy game with the incompetent old man anymore."

"I heard that there is a detective named Lin Xuan in Mihua City. Unless he becomes my opponent tomorrow night, I will not waste any more precious time."

After saying that, Kidd jumped off the rooftop and soon disappeared into the night sky on his hang glider.

The fans below witnessed their idol escape again and couldn't help but cheer.

At the same time, they couldn’t help but ask:

"Who is Lin Xuan?"

"In Beika Town, there is actually a famous detective that Kidd-sama is paying attention to?"

"I thought the only great detectives in Kanto were Kogoro Mori and Shinichi Kudo."

Lin Xuan's face turned a little ugly.

He always keeps a low profile, and only people within the police force know about this savior of Police Officer Liben.

But tonight Kidd actually shouted out his name live on the national TV. Being too famous will only bring trouble!

As for Suzuki Jirokichi, when he heard Kidd's evaluation of him, the old man immediately flew into a rage:

"Damn it! That guy actually treated me like a fool!"

"Kaito Kidd! I must arrest you! Make you repent in prison!"
