[Comprehensive] Phantom Thief · Phantom Thief

"So, brother Rocky...is a detective?"

When Xiaozheng asked this question with a look of surprise, he, Kaito and Rocky were in the public hall on the first floor of the hotel, each holding a cup of hot chocolate milk tea (Xiaoling's exclusive special), Sitting around an inconspicuous position near the corner of the hall.

"That's right. Xiao Ling was surprised?" Ever since Kaito introduced Xiao Ling as his baby brother, the smile on Loki's face has never disappeared when facing Xiao Ling, so at this time As soon as Xiaozheng asked a question, he naturally took over the conversation.

"That's not it..." Xiaozheng smiled embarrassedly when he was asked back, but he didn't hide his curiosity: "It's just that it's a little unbelievable. Because Brother Rocky..." because he knows Brother Kidd" "Phantom Thief", right?

Because from the very beginning, Kaito didn't want Xiaoling to hide her identity in front of Loki, so Xiaoling didn't deliberately avoid calling Kaito "Brother Kidd" in front of Loki. How many people have never heard of the name "Kidd"?

Needless to say, Loki is still a detective, even if he is just an ordinary person who pays attention to the news a little bit, it is impossible not to notice something from Ling's address to Kaito - after all, he knows that Kaito's real name is not at all. What is it called "Kidd"...

Thinking of this, Xiaozheng couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed——

He had solemnly declared to Kaito before that Kaito was not allowed to take the initiative to reveal his real name and identity to himself, saying that he wanted to use his own strength to find Kaito's real body, but now...

His elder brother Kidd made it clear that he came out with the school and class for extracurricular teaching.

In other words, as long as they are still in this hotel, they may meet his brother Kidd's classmate at any time. At that time, he doesn't need to take the initiative to ask, they just need to say hello to Brother Kidd...

Doesn't he know everything!

Besides, the former detective brother named Rocky didn't shy away from himself, and naturally called Brother Kidd by his real name a few times when needed...

The more I think about it, the more I feel like I'm taking advantage of Kidd's brother (you really think too much, kid), and Xiaozheng's behavior can't help but become more and more "shy".

Seeing this, Loki raised his eyebrows, turned his head and looked at Kaito indiscriminately, seeing that Kaito didn't show anything special, so he just pretended that he didn't notice the strangeness of Xiaoshota.

"Xiao Ling wants to ask me if I know Kaito's other identity?" There was no obscurity at all, and Loki directly explained what Xiao Zhengtai was thinking.

Under the gaze of those clear eyes full of surprise and unconscious tension and worry, Loki curled his lips and smiled again: "Of course, I know."

"But . . . what does that matter?"—yes, what does it matter?

"Xiao Ling, I am indeed a detective, but I... am not just a detective."

After finishing speaking, he looked satisfied with the puzzled look on Xiaozhengtai's face, Loki shrugged and smiled at Kaito who secretly sent him a blank eye, got up, and walked to the front desk of the hotel not far away: "I'll go there Let's make an appointment for a small hot spring private room, and Kaito will come with you at night?"

Knowing that this person actually just wanted to leave a free space for himself and Xiao Ling to talk alone, Kaito nodded casually without paying much attention, and when Loki walked a little further away, he immediately moved over and rubbed him. The hair of Xiao Zhengtai who was still in a certain daze: "Xiaoling?"

"Brother Kidd..." The child turned his head, with a confused expression on his face, coupled with those big misty gray eyes, he looked indescribably cute.

"You still call me Brother Kidd?" Couldn't help stretching out his wolf paws to pinch the child's soft face, Kaito suddenly felt that the existence of special people like Shotacon, in fact... is not really at all There is no reason at all.

"Hmm... Kuai, Brother Kuaito..." I heard Loki call Kaidou like this several times in the previous conversations, and of course Xiao Ling would not be so stupid as not to know that this is his brother Kidd's real name.

However, because she did not rely on her own strength to find out Brother Kidd's real body as she declared, so Xiaoling always called "Brother Kaidou" with a little shyness and embarrassment. Little awkward.

Kaito also understood that Xiao Ling was feeling a bit offended by face, so he didn't say anything to point it out. He just changed the topic with a smile, and started talking with Xiao Ling about the recent situation...

※※※

By the time Kuaidou received a text message from a classmate, saying that the class teacher had informed everyone to gather at the designated place, it was nearly three o'clock in the afternoon.

Kaito, who doesn't remember the ski resort episode very clearly, can still vaguely remember that the gathering at this time was because the teacher in the class was going to issue a notice, asking the students in the class to form a team of two, a boy and a girl. Teams, in pairs, in pairs for a drag skiing contest in the evening...

"It's really... I will be a lot older next year, and I still look forward to the figure of two people skiing side by side in the sunset like a little girl. Teacher, you can really be more otome-like and dreamy =="

With a dark expression on his face, Kaito said goodbye to Ling and Loki, and after making an appointment with the two to meet in Loki's room after dinner, he hurried to the meeting place.

……

"Eh?! Snowy night test of courage?!!!"

Uniform exclamations sounded from a corner of the ski resort, attracting the curious attention of several nearby skiers.

Surrounded under the conspicuous bright red banner is a group of young and beautiful high school boys and girls.

——It seems that it should be extracurricular teaching organized by which school.

Skiers, accustomed to meeting such groups of students at such times, were quick to pass judgment.

In the eyes of most adults, even if they have already read high school, this is just a group of children who are not yet adults. Therefore, the skiers looked at each other and smiled tolerantly at the earth-shattering exclamation they just made. , and then spread out in twos and threes.

It's just that they don't know how nervous and excited these big kids in their eyes are at this moment...

"That's right, it's a test of courage on a snowy night." The female class teacher Ren with brown shoulder-length hair was surrounded by the crowd, and looked around for a week at the expressions of excitement or worry on the faces of her students. The moment he thought of a certain handsome face that was so overwhelming, he was immediately thrown out of the blue.

"Don't say you are afraid, this time, we are going to cooperate with elementary school students."

As soon as the class teacher said this, it immediately sparked a heated discussion among the students.

And Kaito, who has been in some kind of consternation since she announced the content of this special event, also realized at this time what changed the plot he knew originally.

——There is only one key word: "primary school students".

The accidental encounter with Xiao Ling and the blush flashing across the teacher's face inconspicuously when the teacher in the class mentioned "primary student"...

This made Kaito quickly connect almost all the causes and consequences of the incident.

It seems that their unreliable class teacher may have met the handicapped Meizhishan boy who is known as an all-female killer by chance, and then the two discussed it for some reason. Class B's costume ski competition turned into a snowy night test of courage jointly held by Ekoda High School and CLAMP Academy Elementary School...

With a helpless sigh, Kaito immediately felt relieved.

In fact, this is not bad.

Especially as the teacher in the class explained, the crowds of the two schools will be broken up, and then they will be freely combined into a two-person adventure team, in a small cave in the back mountain provided by the hotel owner that can absolutely guarantee safety Going back and forth to retrieve the special souvenir with the hotel logo placed in the deepest part of the cave is considered to complete the task.

Although the numbers are not equal, Kaito knows that this is done to let as many high school students and elementary school students as possible to form partners, otherwise such a test of courage would be too exciting and thrilling for elementary school students.

After making up his mind, he went to invite his own (?) young lady, and Kaito couldn't help showing a smile on his face.

Taking advantage of the time when Teacher Ban Ren was still being surrounded by a group of people asking questions, Kaito said hello to the boys who were usually on good terms, and turned around to go back to the hotel to discuss with Xiaoling about forming a team. .

However, the moment he turned around, he suddenly noticed someone approaching him silently...

Calmly, the opponent suddenly accelerated his speed, and when he was about to get close to him, he deflected the angle and slammed the other person beside him straight into the direction where the opponent was approaching. Accompanied by two screams, Kaito pretended to be Turning his head in surprise, he saw a certain red-haired witch who had just let go of harsh words to him not long ago rolled into a ball with a boy who was a little too plump, and fell down in the snow beside him .

"Oh, Fujie-san? Koizumi-san? Are you two okay? Why did you fall like this? Did you get hurt?" He asked with a look of worry, and Kaito's deliberately amplified voice quickly attracted the attention of a group of people. led here.

He raised his eyebrows and glanced at a certain witch lady who was blushing in anger and embarrassment in the eyes of everyone, but still stared at him, and Kaito's eyes inadvertently glanced at the hair in her hand. Zhang, the strange charm in the shape of a red heart that has been firmly stuck to the body of the slightly plump Fujie student, and his heart is instantly clear.

——Obviously, if Kaito hadn't been alert and responsive just now, the thing would have been glued to him!

He has never had a good impression of this kind of magic to control people, so Kaito, who has always been more gentlemanly and gentle towards women, has no intention of coming forward to rescue Hongzi this time.

Turning around, he left behind the witch who was still entangled with Fujie in the snow and the crowd with different expressions, Kaito only wanted to...

Hurry up and go back to where Loki and Xiaoling are.
