[Comprehensive] Phantom Thief · Phantom Thief

Kaito's target this time is "Blue Birthday", known as India's largest sapphire - blue birthday.

Although to be honest, based on Kaito's ability to identify and appreciate gemstones, this "huge" sapphire that the Asan's are proud of is actually nothing comparable to the royal secret treasure "Paris Sun" of a small principality before. But because this "blue birthday" is the biggest opportunity for him to encounter the mysterious organization that murdered Bandit One for the first time and complete a confrontation with it, so although he doesn't think much of this sapphire itself in his heart In short, Kaito still sent out the action notice as soon as it was exhibited according to the plot.

"But at this time... it's really not right =="

Kaito clearly remembers that the reason why this sapphire has such a tasteful name is actually to allude to the birthday of the original heroine Aoko Nakamori——Blue Birthday, in another translation, isn’t it Blue Birthday?

In the original book, the day Kaito chose to act happened to be Aoko's birthday, but because of various accidents encountered during the action, he was not able to rush to Aoko's house to celebrate her birthday as agreed.

So as compensation, the daring young magician of Yigao directly found a building facing the window of Qingzi's bedroom, and used the lights of the building to type out the words "Happy Birthday", accompanied by gorgeous fireworks blooming in the night... …

It can be said that for girls, there is simply no more romantic birthday gift than this.

However, what is bothering Kaito at this time is not the issue of birthday gifts - he and Miss Qingzi are no longer childhood sweethearts, and the plots involving emotional issues like this in the original book naturally have no prerequisites for existence and occurrence ——What really confuses Kaito is actually the extremely confusing question of time!

I swear by his absolutely excellent memory, Kaito remembered that the birthday listed in Nakamori Aoko's profile was September, but now...

It was March, and soon the graduation ceremony and the spring break would start. No matter how you look at it...it doesn't coincide with the month when Miss Qingzi was born!

The corner of his mouth twitched, and for some reason he thought of the most famous time-related bug in "Detective Conan", thinking that Conan had been a primary school student for ten years and had no place to complain, and there was a little time on his side The chaos on the Internet doesn't seem to be so incomprehensible?

Maybe after the next semester starts, he will find that he is still in the second year of high school?

Thinking like this for self-entertainment, Kaito at this time does not know that his joking conjecture today will be proved in the near future... Unfortunately, it will come true ==

"You really don't need me to go with you?"

Looking at the black-haired lover who was slowly doing the usual equipment inspection before leaving, Loki couldn't help asking again.

It's not that he can't trust Kaito's strength, it's just that for some reason, since this morning, he has been feeling a little restless, as if...something bad is about to happen.

Because I haven't received any difficult cases recently, and the whole day is about to pass, so this strange premonition should not be related to me, Luo Ji couldn't help but worry more about his lover who was scheduled to act at night .

Kaito's response to this was to lean over and gently press a sweet kiss on the corner of the blonde god's mouth.

"Don't worry, Rocky. I know better than anyone what I'm going to face tonight."

And for this long overdue encounter, Kaito has waited a long enough time.

"Trust me, you'll welcome back a Kaito unscathed as usual, because..."

"I'm the legendary Phantom Thief—Kidd~"

As the voice gradually faded away, the white top hat quickly turned into a gorgeous phantom flower between the slender fingers, and then it was twirled and fastened on the top of the boy's hair...

"Then... I'll go first!"

The figure of a ghostly thief in white had already disappeared by the window between the ups and downs. The blond young man raised his hand to press the corner of his mouth that had been kissed by his lover before. He was stunned for a while, and then suddenly showed a helpless and indulgent smile.

"Fenrir, you said... am I really a little worried?"

Pinching his eldest son's soft and tough little black ears, Loki's tone was a bit self-deprecating.

However, after getting an enthusiastic paw hug from his cute son, a certain god smiled, and his expression became brisk again: "Ah...that's right, he is my Kaito. The lack of me, I have been tossed by him a lot, haven't I? So..."

Really nothing to worry about.

Thinking of this, the smile on Loki's face couldn't help but deepen.

And the little black dog Fenrir, who was hugged and gently comforted by his Daddy, turned his head away at the next moment, and gave a slight bark to his second brother who was standing by and smiling at him and Daddy. tooth--

Midcarom, you guys are so happy there alone!I don't know if the uncle has been hugged by the father for so long, his tail is almost stiff and falling off?

Come back quickly!Daddy's love is too much for him alone!

Turning his face silently, the famous ferocious god-killing wolf Fenrir in Norse mythology said that he felt a lot of pressure...

The camera turned back to Kaito again.

With Elder Terai’s support, he arrived at the Indian Great Secret Treasure Exhibition Hall where Blue’s birthday is located on time according to the plan. Kaito sighed for the straightforward naming of the exhibition, and received a lot of instructions from Elder Terai, and secretly investigated the inside of the hall. The guard force and equipment said goodbye to Terai half an hour before the forecast time, and then sneaked into the exhibition hall using his best ventilation hole intrusion method (==).

From the information obtained after the combination of the previous investigation and Kaito's own memory, it can be seen that the Nakamori Police Department has really put in a lot of effort this time——

In the center of the empty room, the secret treasure Blue Birthday is surrounded by a huge cage made of special alloy, and on the periphery of the cage, there are densely distributed laser beams with super high lethality (Kaito suspects that this is actually a The security arrangement of the Meizhishan family luxury cruise ship brought inspiration to a certain police officer==), plus there is an ultra-high-voltage high-voltage electricity connected to the floor...

Even Kaito has to sigh at this time, Nakamori Police Department and Metropolitan Police Department really did a great job this time.

only……

"If you want to catch me like this, you must have underestimated this Kaitou Kidd who has successfully escaped from you many times, Mr. Police Department?"

Squatting on the ceiling directly above the exhibition hall where Blue's birthday was located, Kaito shook his head and sighed amidst the familiar laughter belonging to the Nakamori police department passing through the wall, while controlling the electric drill in his hand, and drilled on the ceiling. A small hole came out...

"Next... well, which one should I use?"

Inflatable dummies made in the shape of a baseball, high-fidelity dummies compressed by vacuum that expand immediately after contact with air, and...

Seeing the available stand-ins in his hand, Kaito pretended to be annoyed, and casually threw a dummy with a smoke effect into the alloy cage along the small hole——

"Let's use this, the cover of smoke can also slightly reduce the danger of being discovered during the molding process."

Although the molding process itself only takes a second or two.

And as the dummy was thrown down, a burst of pink smoke filled the entire exhibition hall in an instant!

The detectives headed by the Nakamori Police Department were frantically pulling out their gas masks (they were knocked down by Kidd's hypnotic gas many times, and they almost had a psychological shadow of the pink smoke), while looking at the familiar white gas mask in shock. The figure seemed to appear out of nowhere, squatting in the alloy cage, on the booth with the blue birthday!

"Damn! How did that bastard get in?!"

The originally smug expression of the Nakamori Police Department was completely distorted, and he repeatedly ordered the police behind him to cut off the high-voltage power supply on the ground, turn off the laser, and then open the alloy cage...

"It's now! Catch Kidd for me!"

Following the order from the Nakamori Police Department, all the police officers in the exhibition hall immediately rushed to the center of the exhibition hall!

In the chaos, Kaito, disguised as one of the police officers, opened the partition on the ceiling and jumped down, taking the opportunity to steal Blue Birthday without knowing it...

"Goodbye ~ Nakamori Police Department!"

Kaito, who didn't know when he touched the door, smiled and said goodbye to the huddled police officers, stretched out his hand, and pulled down the cage control button beside him...

After giving a signal to the police officers who were temporarily trapped in the cage, Kaito, who had regained his white-robed phantom thief costume, turned around and quickly left the exhibition hall...

"Hey~ Is it really equipped with a miniature signaling device?"

Relying on the convenience of being familiar with the plot, he had already known in advance that a certain police officer was trying to take away all of himself and his family in one fell swoop. Kaito stopped at a corner near the roof, raised the sapphire in his hand carefully After observing it, I found a miniature signaling device that was flashing a red shimmering light that is unique to signal transmission at the top of a decorative corner at the bottom of the pendant...

"This time, I really made up my mind, Nakamori Police Department."

This police officer who has never been good at planning and planning, can think of such a serial arrest plan as difficult for him, right?

So……

"Just treat it... as a reward for the hard work of the police department."

He murmured, originally he didn't intend to follow the plot completely, but wanted to catch the little leader of the mysterious organization on the top of the building and "find out" some information from him, but Kaito Changed my mind shortly before the plan was about to go ahead.

"Even if it's a long line to catch big fish."

——Presumably, even the little boss who doesn’t know the information that the organization’s purpose of collecting gems is actually to live forever doesn’t know much about the secrets inside the organization...

Therefore, Kaito, who temporarily changed his plan, according to the plot, was shot by the head of a certain organization who came to snipe Kaito Kidd on the roof of the exhibition hall, and fell from the roof. Sexy birthday", stay in the hands of the other party...

And after that...

In an old house far away from the center of Tokyo.

To the little boss who asked "Why are you so obsessed with this gem", the half-bald, short, fat old man who seemed to be a member of a slightly higher organization told the secret of the organization's collection of gems everywhere——

It turns out that there is an ancient legend that when Comet Burley approaches the earth once every 1 years, if you lift the legendary "Stone of Life" to the full moon, tears will flow from it, and if you drink the tears...

"Then, those who drink the tears will realize the dream of mankind since ancient times—immortality!"

"However, among the many gemstones, there is only one gemstone with such magical power. It is a pity that no one knows which gemstone is which, so... we can only look for it one by one."

"Facing the moonlight, if it is that powerful gemstone, then another gemstone hidden in it will emit red light."

"That's the stone of life—Pandora!"

The chunky old man said, aiming the blue gemstone in his hand at the moonlight, but in the next second, he found a small shadow in the gemstone, with a familiar Q-version head portrait drawn on it, plus a sentence... [ BUBU—Did you fall for it? 】At the same time, on a certain towering giant tree in the courtyard, the white-clothed strange thief held a real blue birthday in his hand, aimed at the moonlight, and exclaimed "Oh, so you want to face the moon?" …

"Phantom Thief Kidd?!"

Including the old man and the little boss who thought he had successfully shot Kaito, all members of the mysterious organization in the courtyard were completely shocked by someone's cool appearance!

And just when they couldn't regain their senses for a long time, Kaito jumped suddenly and jumped from the tall tree branches onto the tall fence beside the courtyard. face...

"What immortality! Don't be ridiculous! For this kind of thing..." He dared to design to hurt his most important father, the thief! !

"Listen up, you guys! Tell that 'leader' behind the scenes, if something like Pandora's Stone really exists..."

"I, Kaitou Kidd, will definitely find it first, and then... smash it to pieces!"

After finishing speaking, he ignored the other party's reaction, jumped down the courtyard wall, and quickly disappeared at the corner of the street amidst the sound of the police car's siren gradually resounding through the entire block.

And behind him, the members of the mysterious organization who thought they would evacuate through secret passages like in the original book, leaving only an empty courtyard for the police and the members of the mysterious Blue Birthday who were left alone in place, were sweating profusely. Stuck in the room where the secret passage is located...

"It's bad, the underground passage is blocked from the other side, we can't get out!"

At the same time when everyone's face turned green and white because of the news, the sound of police personnel breaking in the door, like a reminder, resounded through the entire courtyard——

What is this...

Is it a coincidence caused by the temporary deviation of the plot, or...some kind of man-made interference?
