The Phantom Thief of Heart! But Conan

What does Kumail mean to Belmode?

Before getting to know him, this question was easy to answer.

A child who doesn't know what he means, a miserable and hateful villain, an elusive answer, and a colleague whom he has never met.

Although the boss gave her some hints, the general idea was that the organization would change the direction of the experiment and no longer focus on drug research and development, because the emergence of Kumail solved some long-standing problems in cognitive psychology, which is equivalent to It was telling her that she was about to be freed.

But she didn't really have any affection or protective thoughts towards Kumail.

On the contrary, she would kill him without hesitation if necessary.

She didn't feel like she was killing anyone. From her point of view, it was a relief to let a young man who was about to follow in her footsteps die without knowing anything.

This may be arrogant or extreme, but this is what Belmode thinks.

However, now, this name has corresponded to too many things.

He is an evil and self-aware child, convinced that he is heinous and has never made any excuse for his crimes; he is a cunning and keen hunter who can accurately hit the weakness of every prey, with ease, cruelty and precision.

But he was so soft, sad, and easily satisfied. He was easily captured by some light and warmth, and he willingly lowered his head and became a helpless clown like her.

So now Kumel, for her...

"...Tell me about your conditions." After closing his eyes, Belmode began to use the blunt serrations of the table knife to slowly cut the cold chicken on the plate.

She lowered her head.

Toru Amuro's eyes widened slightly and he looked at this scene with slight surprise.

He used Kumel, also known as Karasawa, as a threat to Belmod, and succeeded.

Listen, listen, does this make sense?

He couldn't help but start replaying the conversation between himself and Tang Ze in his mind.

"What does it mean that you can be used to threaten Belmod? Is the relationship between you two already good enough?"

"No, not really. She probably doesn't fully trust me now, and she still needs to keep working hard."

"Then why would she accept such a threat? No matter how you think about it, it's unreasonable."

"Oh, let's not delve into this issue. It's not surprising that a guy who is not very happy in the organization has a twisted mentality, right? At least in her eyes, 'Kumail' is a person whose stance is highly similar to hers, and Still a minor, that’s enough.”

"This sounds too weird..."

"Don't ask, it's just that Belmode likes children very much. Look at what I do, that's it!"

Such a strange logic and such a strange development process should not be established no matter how you look at it.

...But it just happened to be successful!

Does this guy Karasawa have any special attacks on older women?

His pupils were shocked for a moment, and Toru Amuro put down his wine glass and adjusted his mood.

Forget it, no matter how this guy Tang Ze did it, since he can do it, it's not a bad thing after all.

"Don't be so serious. Let's talk about business. Mutual benefit and win-win results. Harmony makes money." Looking at the waiter serving the fragrant meal, he put on his usual bourbon fake smile, "Recently, I made some moves, and you must have heard about it. What do you think of 'Rum'?"

Belmode raised his eyelids again and stared at Toru Amuro's expression seriously.

Looking out of the transparent ring-shaped glass of the restaurant, the setting sun slowly falls into the silhouette of the building. Looking down from above, it is like a blood-red sun wheel pierced by countless steel bars and concrete.

Tokyo night has arrived.

She opened her lips lightly.

"Rum...a wine that, for me, is spicy and delicate. What, are you interested in giving it a try?"

————

"Maoli, I asked for you, there is no rum on the ship, brandy would be good too!"

"Hush, shush -" Hearing Samezaki Shimaji's loud voice, Mouri Kogoro suddenly became nervous and made signs of silence in a panic. At the same time, he hurriedly turned around and looked at the sunset standing on the bow of the ship. of three children.

Huh, it seems like I didn’t hear it.

"What's wrong?" Samezaki Shimaji walked to him and looked at the direction of his gaze in confusion. He didn't find anything unusual. He looked strangely at Mouri Kogoro up and down.

Aren't those the children he brought on board? Feeling nervous for no reason.

This expression was quite familiar to him.

Megure and the others sneaked out to drink, and this was pretty much what they looked like when they answered the phone from their wife.

"Uh, haha, I recently had some problems with my liver and am quitting drinking. If they heard me..." Mouri Kogoro touched the back of his head and explained reluctantly.

This sentence is indeed not a lie. After he drank secretly many times and Mao Lilan took away his bank card, passbook, and even the real estate registration rights information (that is, the permanent property certificate of the house), he thought that he was too indifferent to his body. Mao Lilan, who didn't care about him, took him to a new clinic after consultation, and successfully concluded that if he didn't stop drinking within half a year, his liver would really be hopeless.

He wasn't sure whether this was his true physical condition, or whether Shinde Tomaki had exaggerated his condition under the instruction of several children... It had to be said that it did make him drink less secretly.

If he hadn't met his old boss today and couldn't refuse his hospitality, he probably wouldn't have considered drinking.

As he said that, he took a few more glances in that direction.

"I'm the king of the world!" Mao Lilan stood at the front of the ship, facing the sea breeze and the setting sun. She couldn't help but spread her hands, imitating the movements in the Titanic, and let out a hearty laugh.

The corners of Conan's mouth twitched as he followed her.

Can this be learned on a boat? Wouldn't it feel unlucky?

"Why are you still standing there? Go over and hug her." Tang Ze, who was leaning on the railing and looking at the sea, said suddenly.

"Huh?" Conan was stunned, not understanding what Tang Ze meant.

"People are already playing Titanic. If you don't go up and U jump I jump, you're a bit ignorant." Karasawa turned his head and looked at his height, and suggested kindly, "Is it out of reach? I need to hold you. Get up?"

"Tangze, it's almost enough, you..." The primary school student, who was ridiculed in many directions, endured it for a while, but still clenched his fists.

"Hahaha..." Tang Ze, who had finished teasing the children, stretched out his hand and interrupted Mao Lilan, who was intoxicated in the sunset atmosphere. "I just seemed to hear something. Uncle Mao Li is going to have a drink with that old man."

"Huh?" Mao Lilan's ears perked up, and she immediately quit the literary mode, raised her eyebrows, and turned towards the restaurant, "I told you that you can't drink anymore! Dad!"

Moori Kogoro, who was crouching and trying to reduce his presence, secretly walking toward the restaurant, suddenly felt his back stiffen.

Karasawa, this restless and kind-hearted boy! He knew it!

"Dad! You still want to sneak away!"

"Oh, I'll just drink a little, a little -"

"Not at all! Did you hear what the new doctor said!"

"Xiaolan, oh, I know, I know—"

After their voices faded away, Tangze looked around at the other passengers who were still staying on the deck and chatting together from time to time. He tilted his head in the direction of Conan: "The atmosphere is very strange, you can feel it. ?"

"It's indeed strange." Out of the sight of Maori and his daughter, Conan stopped pretending, climbed on the edge of the railing, and whispered, "Samezaki said before the police, 'Today is a special day.' I feel that it is really They are people who come here to have fun, maybe it’s just a few of us.”

"Yes, the content published in the newspaper is not so much a prize-winning contest, but it may be a signal to certain specific groups of people." Tang Ze glanced at Xie, who was anxiously picking at the paint on the railing. The man smiled and said, "The real message is not the puzzle, but the travel date marked on it."

"Well, it's very possible..." Conan nodded calmly, took out his phone, and sent an email to Dr. A Li.

With the date as a reminder, the efficiency of retrieving content will be greatly improved, and you are likely to find something.

I hope that the ship that has just set off will have time to send the signal.

After sending the email, he thought about it and clicked on the reply message sent by joker again.

[Thank you for your information, it was very timely, Detective.

Unfortunately, it is still too difficult for us to catch up with the ship now.

So we chose to complete our performance part on the shore. Pay attention to the news tonight.

Just be careful on board, you guys. It's not a good idea. I don't want to end up with a good partner who still has a lot of uses because of an old case. 】

"Who is your partner..." Conan muttered in a low voice, looking at the letter he had never heard from again, and pursed his lips unwillingly.

Although he didn't give much information, but as Karasawa said, the date itself may be the most important reminder. These phantom thieves have obviously retrieved relevant information.

No wonder they almost couldn't wait to get Noah's Ark in their pockets. It's so convenient to have an intelligent search engine...

Damn it, strictly speaking, the information about Noah's Ark was provided to the Phantom Thieves by myself! why is it like this!

We must keep up our efforts and cannot lose to them.

"Let's go inquire about the news on the ship." Putting away the phone, Conan tugged on Tang Ze's trouser leg, "Since they are all likely to be related persons, we must be able to find a lot of clues."

"Dinner is almost ready, but don't forget to eat because you are too involved." Tang Ze reminded him, but he still kept up with the high-spirited pace of the primary school students.

Although he had no hope that the detectives could stop the infighting, as a human being, it was better to be optimistic.

It would be a good thing to allow these three people to live for a few more hours and watch the treasure they cherished disappear.

"Take your time. Well, let's try the uncle with the strange seal first." Seeing his friend following behind him, Conan felt a little more at ease and quickly selected the target of the conversation.

Although the elementary school student may not be able to ask anything, he has seen Tangze's superb conversation skills.

If Karasawa is there to help, it's just a simple investigation and conversation, and it won't be a problem!

As he walked quickly towards his target, Conan's thoughts briefly wandered off for a few seconds.

By the way, the registration desk told them that there was another detective on board.

Who is the one……

————

"Going to a bank vault to steal money directly is really lacking in artistry..." Kuroba Kaito kept mumbling, hesitating again and again, but finally couldn't hold it back and climbed up on tiptoes to the exit of the ventilation duct. , the probe looked down.

It has to be said that this group of robbers may have average robbery skills, but the inspiration they gained from their criminal behavior is still extraordinary.

Perhaps practice brings true knowledge. The three thugs who murdered the real mastermind obviously chose this bank after careful selection.

The vaults and safes here are equipped with multiple security facilities, the security force is sufficient, and the walls are extremely thick. Even if you try to blast them, they cannot be blown open easily.

Theoretically, based on the layout diagram they produced, he had already given enough suggestions. There was no need to come to the scene to see the situation in person. However, Kuroba Kaito, who was serving as an instructor for the first time, still couldn't bear it. The urge to go to the scene to supervise the battle.

He just had a look, he just had a look, and he was not prepared to help...

Well, at most, when something goes wrong with these simple and rough guys, who are more like bandits than monster thieves, we can find a way to catch them...

But when he saw the situation in the safe area clearly, he shivered, his eyes widened, and he almost failed to clamp his monocle.

ah? no? ? ?

You are really Phantom Thieves, not bandits, right? !

What is this? You asked me for a long time how to open this and that combination lock, and then you just do it like this, right? !

"Okay." After finishing the cutting work, Asai Narumi threw the things back into the tool box, reached out and took the copper-colored lock of the safe directly from the door.

"Kid is right, this kind of lock is quite troublesome." He picked up the scrapped door lock and studied the structure of the lock core. Xingchuan Hui shook his head and put it into the box. .

Kuroba Kaito's hand clenching on the ventilation shaft tightened for a moment.

ah? ah? ? ? Is what I teach you such a troublesome method?

Slander, complete slander, you are not allowed to say my name when you go out, I don’t have such an embarrassing student!

"But the leader also said that it is precisely because of the complex structure that the strength of the lock cylinder is relatively fragile - it is too difficult to process such a complex structure from materials with too high strength. This is just a safe, and It's not the bank vault door." Asai Narimi moved his joints and stood up straight.

Kuroba Kaito, who was lying on top, gritted his teeth.

He knew that Joker, the guy who had been ruining the reputation of the Phantom Thieves all day long, looked at what kind of people he had brought out!

"Well, they are indeed banknotes." Miyano Akemi opened the door of the cabinet and pulled out a bag of things. She opened the zipper, flipped through the things in the middle with a sophisticated old Jianghu temperament, and nodded. , "Their vision in choosing banks is still good. If they change to a bank that does not pay attention to the preservation environment, 20 years later, the banknotes will be oxidized, corroded, and damaged."

"How many bags?" Xingchuan Hui looked inside.

"Eight pieces. One bag should be worth 50 million yuan. I weighed it and it's almost the same." Miyano Akemi threw the triangular bag in her hand that was obviously used to hold fishing gear to Hoshikawa Teru. "Hurry up and stuff the notice letter into it." Go. Noah, count down fifteen minutes and prepare to blast."

Kid's face was getting closer and closer, almost touching the fence, and his pupils were shaking again.

blasting? What blast? !

He thought they were going to prepare some kind of subtle trick to let people discover their actions, but it turned out to be a simple and crude eight eggs?

What does it mean to be almost done? What kind of industry did this woman codenamed Illusion work in before?

By the way, speaking of codenames...what's going on with these guys' Kaito suits!

Joker's red scarf was already very weird. Considering that it was probably some kind of multi-functional tool, he reluctantly accepted the other person's aesthetic as a Phantom Thief.

But the painting style of these three guys below is too strange!

The bells and whistles of our Phantom Thieves don't mean this kind of bells and whistles. Even if you don't wear tight leather clothes or anything like that, you should still wear some formal clothes. Is it really okay to wear a suspender bra and a big skirt to be a Phantom Thief? !

Naturally, the people below could not receive the violent fluctuations of Kuroba Kaito's brainwaves. Asai Narumi and Hoshikawa Teru tacitly accepted the bag that Miyano Akemi took out, took out the banknotes, and stuffed them skillfully. Prepared sack.

They are really skilled in this part. After all, this is the world of Kexue, not Minecraft. There is no way to automatically absorb monsters when they fall. Therefore, a large part of their work in understanding the world includes collecting the monsters that are scattered all over the floor. money item.

Before Kuroba Kaito could finish commenting on the three Kaitou outfits, the next moment, they came up with something that shocked him even more.

A sack of notice letters!

Kuroba Kaito, whose pupils were wildly trembling, could no longer hold back, his mouth slowly opened wide, and he watched with dizzy eyes as the three people randomly stuffed handfuls of small pieces of paper into the bag.

no? ah? ? ?

I understand your desire to declare a crime, but is this really necessary?

How many warning letters have you printed? Are all 8 bags of banknotes replaced with warning letters? Is this really environmentally friendly?

After they stuffed the replaced bag back into the safe, they pressed the cut lock cylinder directly into its original position, and then began to paste warning letters on the entire safe. Hoshikawa Teru even took out a spray paint can and a graffiti board. When he was about to spray-paint the Phantom Thieves' logo on the ground, Kuroba Kaito could no longer restrain his desire to complain. He tremblingly stretched out his hand to support his top hat, released the hand that was holding him, and followed the steps he slipped in. The route went back to its original position.

Sorry to bother you.jpg

Qiuqiu, please don't wear me when you sign your name. Don't let anyone know that this plan actually involves Kaitou Kidd. You can't afford to lose this person!
