[Comprehensive] Phantom Thief · Phantom Thief

Compared with the original book, the time when Kaito became Kaido Kidd did not deviate too much, although he opened the room immediately after Pirate One died because of the so-called accident. A secret room that I "accidentally" discovered.

This unexpectedly spacious secret room is just behind the oversized first-class photo of the pirate on the wall of Kaito’s room. As long as you push the photo hard, the interlocking mechanism will be triggered, and a revolving secret door with the photo as a cover will appear. .

Kaito found some of Kaito Kidd's iconic outfits in the secret room, ranging from hats and cloaks to suits and monocles.

Of course, the surprises and precious treasures Pirates left for Kaito are far more than these.

A variety of practical and well-crafted small props, including powerful hypnotic gas, smoke bombs, flash bombs, playing card pistols, small bugs, dummies for stand-ins... and so on.

——Of course, the most important various color-changing equipment is absolutely indispensable.

Speaking of which, Kaito has always been very curious about the disguise tools and techniques used by Kidd in the animation.

After all, as a citizen of the Celestial Dynasty who grew up under the influence of various martial arts novels, Kaidou still has a good impression and interest in the matter of disguise.

And many of the things Pirate One left in the secret room largely satisfied Kaidou's interest—I believe that if it wasn't for the fact that he was only nine years old when he opened the secret room for the first time, many of the things here would never be It wasn't until Kaito officially took over the identity of Kaitou Kidd that he was able to really play a role.

However, compared with these things, Kaito would rather not have the chance to get them in his whole life, if so... Touichi can return to him and his mother Chikage again.

Kaito had blamed himself more than once, thinking that if he could have been vigilant earlier and warned Pirate One in advance, then everything that followed would not have happened, and he and Chikage would not have to lose the most important thing in their lives. That existence, even with the feeling... It seems that after the disappearance of Pirates, this house of Heiba's house, which was originally full of laughter, warmth and peace, suddenly became empty and desolate, making people feel involuntarily in the middle of the house every now and then. In every corner, search for the figure and traces left by Pirate One...

Kaito thinks, this is probably the main reason why Chikage seldom stays at home after he turned 14 years old and has enough ability to take care of himself. Staying too much in this place with the happiest memories of her and Pirate One, beside her...but no longer accompanied by the black-haired man who brought her all the happiness and warmth.

——Kaito couldn't convince himself not to care.

If it wasn't because he was too used to the happy and peaceful life all the time, so he unknowingly let down his vigilance and forgot to be vigilant, Robber wouldn't have been so unsuspectingly framed by the black organization's design, so that even today, Still missing, dead or alive...

"Although I really don't want to think so, but... maybe this is the so-called 'fate'?"

Kaito still remembers thinking like this in a daze, and then, without hesitation, he raised his hand and pushed open the secret door of the secret room that contained the most important secret of the Kuroba family.

Since that day, Kaito has been honing his various skills—whether as a magician or as a phantom thief.

Because he was an accomplished magician in his previous life, the various notes on magic techniques left by Roichi are not difficult to learn and master. In comparison, it is more difficult and challenging for Kaito. , but how to become a successful phantom thief.

This is how Pirates repeatedly describe it through words and pictures, but it cannot be fully displayed in front of Kaito.

Many skills that need to be proficient as a phantom thief do have some subtle similarities with magic, but there are more stringent standards and unique requirements in more places. This is Kaito who must study and explore on his own. And only in practice can one continuously improve and improve one's own ability. It is absolutely impossible to be able to grasp and use it proficiently just by relying on the few words and phrases left by Pioneer.

So Kaito spent a lot of time trying to figure out, understand and test these skills. By the time he was confident that he could completely control them without any omissions, there was nothing left until his 17th birthday. How much time has passed.

Noticing this, Kaito gave up his plan to become Kid early and waited for Terai (Note 1) to come to him on his own initiative. He followed the development of the original plot directly, and only put on it for the first time after Terai's impersonated Kid appeared. That pure white phantom thief outfit officially took over the name "Kidd".

As Phantom Thief Kidd, what Kaito made his first move and successfully stole was the famous gemstone in the collection of the Tokyo Art Museum, the "Eye of the Moon" with a market value of [-] million.

Originally, Kaito's plan was the same as the original book, waiting for Terai to succeed, then running to the top of the building to block people.

It turned out that when he quietly came to the roof of the building where the art museum is located, another person had already arrived and was waiting there early...

"Phantom Thief Kidd?"

What came into the ears with the wind was an unexpectedly clear and sweet child's voice, Kaito staggered a bit, and turned his head to look at the source of the voice——

In the shadow cast by the huge steel bracket under the moon, a petite figure in a black suit and a black cloak was standing there quietly. Standard gentleman's etiquette: "Good night. It's the first time we meet, please forgive my faux pas and coming uninvited."

As he said that, the little black-clothed visitor slowly raised his head, and under the clear moonlight, he revealed a palm-sized face that was mostly covered by a black eyepatch, but could still clearly distinguish its beautiful outline: "My The name is Twenty Faces of the Phantom Thief, so let’s just say it’s your kind.”

……

Kaito OTZ deeply.

What kind of world is this?

While working hard to maintain a calm and graceful posture in front of the young boy who claimed to be a phantom thief with twenty faces, the young phantom thief in white couldn't help but growl in his heart.

The identity he himself has assumed is amazing and dreamy enough, isn't it!He really doesn't need to receive more unnecessary surprises and frights!

As a fairly experienced ACG hidden nerd, Kaito knows all too well what it means when the title of a young boy and the twenty-faced face of a phantom thief overlap.

——Phantom Thief with Thousand Faces, Pliers (Note 2), one of the early classic works of the aunts, tells a romantic love story between a boy in the fourth grade of elementary school and a girl in kindergarten...

... Nima! Should the people of District 11 be so open!

I started falling in love in kindergarten, which made many people never hold a boyfriend/girlfriend’s little hand or kiss a boyfriend/girlfriend’s mouth until they graduated from university, and even never had a boyfriend/girlfriend. Even love is something to eat? How can the innocent boys and girls of the Celestial Dynasty feel so in love! (By the way, it seems that something strange got in there just now...)

Kaito turned his head silently, and was really speechless.

——You said you made your debut well, why did you encounter such an unexpected situation!

This is not just a bad start, okay?Since the appearance of Kaitou with a Thousand Faces, Kaito's entire world view has been subverted!

He's so silly, really.

He only knows that he has transmigrated into the high-risk world of Conan (Phantom Thieves and Detectives don’t separate families, and I will contact you and me with love [← You are sincere enough!), but he never imagined that this is not just a world of famous Detective Conan. It's just comics, you bastard!

Powerless to support his forehead, Kaidou tried his best to suppress the desire that all kinds of slots in his heart were full and he wanted to roar up to the sky. After taking a deep breath...

The corners of his lips were slightly hooked, making an arrogant (...) expression, and he raised his eyes to look at the black-clothed boy under the shadow——

"Ijiin... Ling?"

Unprepared, the young boy from Yijiyuan, whose real body was exposed suddenly, froze instantly!

"You..." The red and delicate lips moved back and forth countless times, but they couldn't utter a complete sentence at all. The poor Yijiyuan boy was almost completely short-circuited because of too much stimulation!

The poor, unlucky child didn't know that he was actually... being angered.

Normally, Kaito, who would involuntarily soften his heart towards children, would never do such a thing of exposing his true identity as soon as he met, but now...

Out of a subtly distorted mentality of "how can I make others feel better when I'm having a hard time?", Kaidou has no sympathy for the beautiful boy Xiaoling at all. The most direct and effective offensive method was adopted!

On the one hand, this is indeed caused by venting anger and childish revenge, but on the other hand, it is also because today's reunion and recognition with Terai is very important to Kaito, so there is no room for any mistakes. The only way to get rid of this little monster who is obviously trying to "rob business" with me without making too much noise so as to disturb the police is...

"I don't want me to say that name again in front of those officers who will arrive later..."

The unfinished meaning of Kaito's words is quite obvious-if you don't want to reveal your identity, just obediently leave today, hello, hello, hello everyone.

And prepared a lot of rhetoric and countermeasures, but now he was blocked by the other party with a name before he could do anything. The little monster thief who had never tasted a defeat since his debut at the age of ten was suddenly extremely wronged!

"I don't want to go!"

Stubbornly straightened her young and immature back, although she immediately regretted it as soon as she said the words, but it was very inconsistent with her usual kind and gentle temperament, this time the young Xiaoling didn't know why, but somehow...became very stubborn.

His reaction obviously made the strange thief in white stunned for a moment.

Then I saw the other party sigh helplessly, suddenly raised his right hand and snapped his fingers in the air...

Suddenly, the little monster in black fell into a warm embrace exuding a gentle and cold fragrance——

"Go to sleep."

Before he completely lost consciousness, he heard a voice with three parts gentle and seven parts helpless, ringing in his ear, inexplicably... reassuring.

The author has something to say: Note 1, Terai Konosuke, the former housekeeper of the Kuroba family and the assistant of Kaitou Kidd, once pretended to be Kaitou Kidd in order to elicit the mysterious organization that murdered the thief.

Note 2, pliers, a kind of interpretation of the word clamp, the aunt of the pliers actually refers to CLAMP==
