[Comprehensive] Phantom Thief · Phantom Thief

Kaito's day was like magic.

The huge blow made the young magician seem out of his mind all day, no matter what he did, he seemed to be out of state...

"Kaito, are you really alright?"

Seeing his friend sweeping the ground again and unconsciously standing on the spot with a broom, he became dazed. After the two of them read the class placement results together in the morning, he noticed his friend's abnormality, and finally couldn't hold back, and asked road.

――It was the first time he saw Kaito look so out of his mind.

In the end... what happened?

A slight trace of worry flashed across the handsome face that has always been expressionless. The national idol boy, who had no job for the first time on the first day of school, was able to stay and participate in the cleaning with his family and friends. At this moment, he really felt something strange. ……disturbed.

And aware of the uneasiness brought about by his abnormality to his friends, the young magician who came back to his senses after being called out pursed his lips and smiled, trying to make his expression look more natural: "I'm fine, You .”

It's just the thought of having to re-read the second year of high school again, and it is likely that I will re-read it more than once in the future...

Kaito really couldn't convince himself to calm down――

Although he didn't look forward to welcoming him to the third year of high school, it didn't mean he wanted to repeat the second year of high school!Conan, you bastard, he was dragged down by you, TAT!

"You, you really don't feel anything is wrong?"

Although after a whole day of observation and testing, Kaito has already discovered that except himself, everyone in the school seems to have not noticed such a huge time anomaly, and has no objection to the fact that he reread the current school year again , but he somehow just didn't want to give up!

——Even if there is only one person, who will share this panic and depression with him!

With drooping shoulders, the black-haired boy behaved like a dejected cat with unknown reasons. Seeing the young boy, You couldn't help but feel soft-hearted and... itchy hands—why suddenly... I really want to touch it Where's Kaito's head?

The beautiful boy with facial paralysis wondered secretly, but out of a certain keen intuition, he still didn't turn his inner impulse into concrete actions.

"I don't think there's anything wrong with it."

Tilting his head and thinking for a while, You Boy decided to answer the inexplicable question that his friend asked before.

However, "Why did Kaito ask such a question?"

He felt that the first day of school was very ordinary!It's not the same as before...

In the face of his friend's question, what kind of response can Kaito make besides wry smile?

It's not that he didn't think that he might be the only one among the group of people related to Conan who could perceive the strange stagnation in time.But wait until this conjecture is actually confirmed?Kaito said that it is difficult for him to be completely calm and calm-it is not so easy to do when everyone is drunk and I am alone.

"No, You, nothing happened. It was because I didn't sleep well last night, that's why I was in a trance all day, and I always felt like something was wrong."——In addition to comforting my friend's doubts and worries in this way, What else can Kaidou do?

You, like everyone else, is in this vicious circle that violates the law of time. As a character in the plot, he can't break free. It's okay if Kaito can't help him, but how can he pull him into something that was originally wrong? Should be entangled in his troubles?

So in the following time, Kuai Dou worked hard to prove to his friends that he was really distracted because of lack of energy, and there was nothing wrong with it.Although You Boy still had some concerns in his heart, seeing Kaidou trying to smile at him, the considerate boy suppressed all doubts, and cooperatively showed the peace of mind and calm that his friends wanted to see.

The two finished the cleaning together with other students in the class, and packed up the newly distributed textbooks (although Kaito didn't think there was any need for these "new textbooks" to be distributed ==), after confirming that there was nothing missing , walked out of the school gate side by side.

There were no accidents on the way back, but Kaito and Yuu were a little more silent than when they came in the morning. Although it didn't make the atmosphere awkward, it wasn't as relaxed and cheerful as before.

Kaito felt a little sorry for his friend.

Originally, if it wasn't for his abnormality being so obvious, You wouldn't have to bear this depression with him.

Although this also proves from another aspect that his friend cares about him, but at such a time, it is impossible for Kaito to be happy anyway...

And before they knew it, the two had reached a fork in the road where they should part.

The two who stopped were about to wave goodbye, Kaito thought about it and finally apologized: "I'm sorry, Yu, I made you worry today."

Sure enough, he still can't cultivate well, and he can't fully achieve the poker face that Pirate One taught him...

"...It's fine if you're really okay."

Facing Kaito's apology and hidden gratitude, You Boy was only silent for a moment, and then quickly responded softly with his usual expressionless face.

Kaito knew that that short pause actually meant a lot.

——The uneasiness and concern in You's heart didn't fade away because of his reassurance, but just to prevent Kaito from worrying more, the black-haired idol boy chose to suppress all his worries and doubts, pretending to return to normal.

This made Kaito's apology to his friend a little more aggravated.

However, he is also very clear that at such a time, it is better to frankly accept the thoughtfulness and kindness of his friends and recover his spirit as soon as possible, rather than trying to prove to his friends that he is really okay.

So the young magician raised his hand, and gently hugged his friend who became stiff because of his actions: "Thank you, You. Trust me, I have my sense of proportion."

――This is the most certain guarantee that Kaito can give at this stage.

And the black-haired boy idol who got the guarantee stared at Kaito for a while, wondering whether he was observing and analyzing the credibility of his guarantee, or... simply hugging for the pure friendship just now and feel shy...

※※※

Saying goodbye to his friend, Kaito turned around and walked all the way to Suzaku Detective Agency with a delicate expression.

His current emotions... are really complicated.

Looking forward to Loki's reaction when he learned that he was going to retake his sophomore year in high school, he was a little worried that he might be like You Boy, and didn't think there was anything wrong with it...

"If it's the former one, it's easy to solve." At worst, he sacrificed a little bit more to move his mouth (cough! >///<), "The trouble is, what if it's the latter..."

At that time, Kaito will be depressed!

It’s fine if you can’t share your biggest secret with the closest person, but now even the possibility of sharing the sad fate of reincarnation as a sophomore in high school for ten thousand years (you have a problem with your description of the boy ==) is very slim...

Kaito really didn't know what his reaction would be once his fears were actually confirmed in the near future.

If you can……

"I hope this can be an opportunity..."

Kaito prayed silently, stretched out his hand and pushed open the door of the detective agency.

……

"So, after you arrived at school today, you found that you had to retake the second year of high school again, but the classmates and teachers around you didn't realize it. Not only did they not have any doubts, they even thought it was completely normal?"

Fingers tapped the table lightly rhythmically, the blond god rested his chin on his hands, and sat behind the desk with a calm expression.

His performance was so calm and calm, as if Kaito's previous narration did not bring him any great shock like a stormy sea.

Seeing this, Kaito couldn't help raising his eyebrows: "Why don't you seem surprised at all?"

——Don't tell him that Loki expected this.

That Kaito really doesn't believe a word!

In comparison, it might be better to say that Loki’s protoss is sick, and it’s more reliable to fully open the X attribute in the middle and second outfits—of course, although in fact, in Kaito’s view, the intimacy between this god attribute and Loki is not at all comparable. Once the final boss Baldr was so high...

Unconsciously thinking wildly, Kaito naturally didn't notice that some kind of strange light flashed in the depths of his lover's blue eyes...

"No, I'm surprised." Kaito's thoughts had gone back and forth several times in the end of the world for almost a long time, and the silence in the room was finally broken by Loki's belated answer.

The fair-haired god tilted his head slightly, and his pretty side face seemed to be softened by some sharp edges and corners under the warm orange afterglow of the setting sun, making it look unusually gentle and beautiful.

"It's just because I already had some guesses about it before this, so...it seems calmer than Kaito you think." Ten fingers crossed, and after stacking them together, they rested leisurely. With a beautiful and sharp chin, the blond Nordic evil god narrowed his eyes with a smile, and seeing his lover's eyes widen in surprise after hearing his explanation, he couldn't help but smile again in a good mood: " What? Kaito, you seem quite surprised by what I said?"

――The undisguised jokes and ridicule in the laughter caused a long series of cross veins to pop out of Kaito's forehead in an instant...

"Loki, you bastard..." Is it really worthy of being the god of pranks?

Angrily staring at the innocent (==+) blond lover, Kaito said that he was very angry, and the consequences... depend on Loki's next behavior!

And Mr. Cthulhu, who was irritated this time, was acting well this time, and he stopped acting like an unfathomable expert. He got up directly, walked to his lover, pulled him up and led him to the sofa group next to him to sit together—— "Okay, it's my fault, I shouldn't make fun of such a big thing, but if it wasn't for Kaito, you have something to hide from me first, how can I be willing to add to your burden when you are so troubled?"

As soon as Loki said this, Kaito was instantly stunned!

What did he just... hear?

Loki said, if he hadn't kept something from him first...? !

Does this mean that Loki... knows something?

For a long time, because his true origin could not be disclosed to anyone, Kaito had to admit that he also naturally took this as a natural protector while feeling annoyed and helpless over time. As carefully as before, he controlled his words and deeds, fearing that an inadvertent slip of the tongue would expose himself to the eyes of others.

And Kaidou's relaxation of vigilance is most obvious in front of several people - two of them are naturally his family's Thief and Qianyingniang (and it turns out that they are different from their precious son since childhood) There is no doubt about the genius of ordinary people), and the other few are the Rocky family.

Once Kaito tried to spoil Loki and was hindered by the unknown law, he completely gave up the idea of ​​​​covering himself in front of this family—anyway, what they shouldn’t know will never be known It was even thought, why does he still live so cautiously and fearfully?

Magicians have always been very egoistic and spontaneous. Kaito's nature has been suppressed for so long, and when the subconscious feels safe, it will naturally erupt, and he will not be concealed.

So he didn't notice it at all. Many times, after Loki was "accidentally" led by him to get rid of the assassin from the gods, he looked at him with some deep emotions hidden in his eyes...

——That's right, Mr. Cthulhu had doubts about the origin of his lover for a long time.

At first, he thought that Kaito might have some kind of power different from ordinary people, allowing him to predict certain destiny trajectories in advance like the Norns, but soon Loki overturned his idea, because if If Kaito can predict and change his destiny in advance, when Kaito first met him, he would not be such a guarded cub who locked himself in a world that only belonged to him.

Because, he can use his own strength to remind or help his father, so that he can avoid the fate of "death in a magic accident".

After refuting his initial conjecture, Loki began to carefully observe Kaito's every move, and after getting along and observing for a period of time, Loki found that Kaito seemed to be able to know things in advance, but he couldn't clearly Tell other people around you what you know, and you can't make any particularly obvious behaviors to convey any information to others.

All he can do is to rely on his own strength to lead others as much as possible to entrust a certain established destiny -- but there is no guarantee that he will be lucky and successful every time.

This is really... a very interesting thing.

It is precisely because he was aroused by this wonderful phenomenon that happened to Kaito that Loki will set his eyes on Kaito, observe and get along with him for a long time, and finally... Unexpected but really put his heart totally lost...

——Speaking of which, for the always proud and conceited Mr. Cthulhu, this may... be one of the very few accidents that are out of his control.

However, it was a sweet and gratifying accident...

Turning sideways, he stretched out his hand first, and gently embraced the lover who was stunned and stiff because of his sudden showdown without warning, Loki lowered his head and gently kissed the top of the other's hair, no matter the action or the following tone They are full of the same pampering and pampering as usual: "Little Dai, what are you thinking about?"

"I have never doubted or guarded against you, I just... feel very interested."

Warm big hands gently caressed Kaito's back, Loki's familiar low voice with obvious tenderness and nostalgia, explained to Kaito in detail that he had discovered his abnormality, and took this as an opportunity to tie him by his side , and finally caused the whole process of his being the first to fall, the tone was full of helpless nostalgia, Kuai Dou unknowingly relaxed his body when he heard it, and his whole body was soft in the arms of his lover...

"So, I just always knew that you have a secret but it seems that you have to hide it from me for some unspeakable reasons (Loki deliberately emphasized his tone when he said this), and I certainly hope that one day I can share it with you All of this, but I also know that we need an opportunity to break through all barriers. And now...it seems to have been sent to us?"

Loki said, looking down at Kaito with a smile on his eyes, deep in those emerald-like emerald green eyes, there was a palpitating inexplicable brilliance and unmistakable tenderness, which made Kaito All the anxiety and panic in my heart, at this moment, all returned to silence...

"I think you're right." Taking a deep breath, Kaito pushed away his lover's embrace, and slowly sat up straight, "We should really... give it a try."

Loki didn't reply, but just stared at the serious young lover with a smile, as if encouraging him not to hesitate, and to continue talking vigorously.

Seeing this, Kaito felt more at ease.

Holding his lover's hand tightly, the black-haired magician boy paused for a moment, and then spoke again, with a slow but firm tone: "Loki, I couldn't tell you before that I actually... come from another world..."

――No obstacles encountered!

This time, the words that Kaito wanted to express in the past, without any restrictions, smoothly and smoothly for the first time...reached the ear of the person he wanted to convey!

The whole body trembled slightly because of this sudden success, Kaito silently clenched Loki's palm tightly, and laughed as he looked at his blond lover—the last barrier and restriction between them, finally ... was completely broken!
