The Phantom Thief of Heart! But Conan

"You look very confident..." Faced with the white horse detective's gaze, Tang Ze tilted his head calmly, "The profile you described is indeed somewhat consistent with mine, but it doesn't sound very reasonable. How do you do it? Are these conclusions also based on police investigations?”

Tang Ze was really curious about this.

According to his impression, Detective White Horse does belong to the elite class of detectives, but he is not the type who likes to rely on family background. This time he will encounter a murder case during the investigation of Kidd. I am afraid it is not the so-called use of resources to investigate as he described. .

He would take the initiative to say that he was the son of the White Horse Police Chief, not more to show that his source of information was the police, but actually to win the trust of a room full of strangers.

White Horse Detective is the kind of scientific research detective who does his own big data.

Like, Batman kind of, um.

Either that or Red Herring is a good name.

"Some little detective skills." Detective Baima shrugged and said in a brisk tone, "According to my speculation, something happened during the years when Kaito Kidd was silent. This is actually very common in the criminal world. For example, the prisoner suddenly Sickness, death, or great changes in living environment, forcing the crime to be changed, or even disappearing..."

Baima Tan said and pointed in the direction of Tang Ze.

"Or, maybe you get married, have children, and take on apprentices..."

Tang Ze raised his eyebrows and had a little guess in his mind.

This is no longer just a general statement, it is completely intentional. Detective White Horse has come to Japan this time, and his plans are not small.

"Um..." The two of them kept looking at each other. When their eyes met, Kuroba Kaito weakly raised his hand, "I don't mean to interrupt you two, but did you hear any sounds?"

————

"This young lady has already killed an enemy. She is determined to kill."

Putting down the telescope in his hand, Matsuda Jinpei sighed softly and took two steps back.

The vast color of snow suddenly disappeared as he retreated. He walked back to the warm RV, took a few sips of the hot coffee handed over by Kenji Hagihara.

The snow outside is getting heavier and heavier, as if determined to implement the concept of Blizzard Villa to the end. The sky is covered with powdery snow, and the cold wind blowing alone is enough to send chills to the bones.

"There is no way. The guy who can be selected as the target by the leader must have something extraordinary." Xingchuan Hui, holding the book in his hand, raised his head, "But, this is not a bad thing for you, right?"

The essential reason why Toru Amuro agreed to Mouri Kogoro to accompany Mouri Ran and Suzuki Sonoko to some netizen gathering was because he wanted to see what the secrets that his contemporaries were guarding tightly were.

"In this regard, let's all be kind to each other..." Matsuda Jinpei patted his forehead, feeling a headache.

As the original founder of the Phantom Thieves, Karasawa has so much dark history in his hands. Normally, Karasawa would not betray his teammates when nothing happens, but facing a special character like Rei Fukiya, will he? Who knows if embarrassing things will fall out as soon as I loosen my grip...

"Actually, we don't have a big problem." Zhu Fu Jingguang looked away from the monitor and said calmly, "After all, Zero will find out. The squad leader's situation is quite special, and it does deserve a good welcome. By that time, I can’t hide it even if I want to, but Mr. Xingchuan, you..."

He glanced at the high school textbook in Xingchuan Hui's hand, hesitated to speak, hesitated to speak, and finally patted him on the shoulder helplessly.

Since this detective named Hakuba Detective followed Goro Akechi's reputation and came to him, it would be impossible for Karasawa not to persecute Hoshikawa.

Xingchuan Hui wrapped the blanket around him tightly and silently turned to the next page: "Then I'm okay. If we really want to compete with White Horse Detective in public, Tang Ze can't just sit idly by and watch. Don't look at it. The way he looks, he is serious about the management of each of his false identities.”

It would be fine if he was allowed to work on an ordinary variety show. If he was really better than a detective, Xingchuan Hui knew that he would not be able to win.

Although he has been trained by Karasawa for a long time and has been put on the shelf many times for actual combat, it is not a big problem for Hoshikawa Teru to claim that he is a detective, but compared with real elites like Detective Hakuba, he is still far behind.

Before Karasawa completely abandons the identity of Akechi Goro, Karasawa certainly cannot let this vest have any stain, so the person who will fight Hakuba Tan will definitely be Karasawa himself.

"And don't you think that Karasawa sounds really interested in Hakuba Detective?" Miyano Akemi raised her chin in the direction of the monitor, "If there is a great opportunity to confront the opponent with Akechi's identity, he won't Will give it to someone else.”

"Is this the reason why he went to the website to reply to people in person?" Asai Narumi, who was sitting in the driver's seat, turned back, "Let me tell you, how could he suddenly notice the commission online..."

"Hey, a murder is about to happen outside, and you guys are a little too leisurely." Hagihara Kenji pressed his temples, feeling helpless, "Why don't you go and stop it? Now that we know the cause and effect, I think, no matter it is right The price is too high for both the deceased and the murderer..."

The broken suspension bridge and the heavy snowstorm cut off contact with the outside world, but the connection between Karasawa and the Phantom Thieves was impossible to break.

Therefore, everyone in the car had heard everything that happened in the house from Tang Ze's perspective. Combined with the information Tang Ze gave on the road, everyone knew the whole story.

The starting point of everything was not bad. Harui Fuden, who was still interested in the hobby group of young people at an old age, was a very easy-going old man. He chose to try to perform again. Rather than being instigated by people in the group, it was better to say that he wanted to respond to those expectations.

There are indeed guys like Hamano Toshiya in this group who don't care and speak harshly, but there is no shortage of young people like Suzuki Sonoko who just pay attention to magic out of curiosity.

An old legend heard the young people talking about his legend, and couldn't help but recall the past and wanted to return to his favorite stage again. If it weren't for the tragedy, this should have been a good story.

Tanaka Takahisa, who discovered this, was originally just regretful and sad, and didn't develop to the point of killing. However, although there are few guys like Hamano Toshiya, the damage caused cannot be wiped out by a few gentle words.

"Karazawa doesn't want to intervene." Miyano Akemi folded her hands on her knees and said something cruel. "Although Miss Tanaka Takahisa is not a magician, she has been exposed to the props of Harui Fuden since she was a child. In fact, she is deeply affected by the X-alloy, just like Miss Miyoshi Asako who killed Jiujiu Motoyasu. Once a conflict breaks out, their emotions will be more intense than ordinary people and almost irreversible."

"Then watch her kill people?" Hagiwara Kenji frowned disapprovingly.

"Oh, Mr. Hagiwara, are you a procedural justice person?" Shimabukuro Kimie raised her head, full of curiosity, "Then you will probably have a hard time next. Our methods, as you know, are not very common, and rarely follow the rules."

"No, I also said that I am absolutely against violence, but..." Hagiwara Kenji pressed his forehead helplessly, "I just think, has it really come to this? It's going to get to the point where we need to kill people because of one or two excessive words."

Well, after waking up, he had learned about the possible style of this future team from his friends, and actually felt their almost indifferent withdrawal from social life. Hagiwara Kenji put himself in their shoes and felt what the sentence "If Karasawa goes astray, Hagi, I'm afraid we can only run away on the spot" meant.

Akemi Miyano lowered her head and picked up her teacup: "Karazawa's idea is that 'verbal karma is also karma'. Although it is indeed a bit extreme, he feels that he cannot make decisions on behalf of Tanaka Takahisa just because of his subjective thoughts. Since she has made a decision and is willing to bear all the consequences for it, stopping her is not the most important thing."

Hagiwara Kenji was a little speechless. He looked at the expressions of Matsuda Jinpei and Morobushi Kagemitsu, and could only sigh and said nothing more.

Having only known them for a few days, he has not yet developed any tacit understanding with this group of people. He only knows that they are a group of avengers who were saved by Karazawa after burning out their emotions about their past lives and their own situations.

This world may not be completely free of their worries, but the connection is actually very weak.

Asai Narumi still has his adoptive parents who raised him, and Shimabukuro Kimie also has friends and classmates from the past, but for them, these contacts are dispensable and were abandoned when revenge began.

Like ashes that have been burned out, if Tang Ze had not carefully gathered them, they might have been blown away by the wind.

These people are re-anchoring their future lives through the special existence of the Phantom Thieves, and Tang Ze, the helmsman, has become that anchor.

Tang Ze is undoubtedly aware of this, so he said that he will be responsible for everyone's future...

He is willing to bear all the weight and responsibility of decision-making and choice.

Hagiwara Kenji looked at the monitor with a complicated expression.

There, Tang Ze, who avoided the sight of Hakuba Tan and found Kuroba Kaito to talk in a whisper, was also talking about Tanaka Takahisa.

"I don't quite agree, but you know, I always respect everyone who makes a decision after careful consideration. As for the price they have to pay for that, I think it is reasonable."

————

"So, you arranged her to her original position?" Kuroba Kaito frowned when he heard his somewhat indifferent statement, and confirmed again, "She wants to use this time to kill Hamano Toshiya, right?"

When he came to the meeting, he had doubts about this.

The most important reason for Kuroba Kaito to appear here is naturally his concern for magicians, but more importantly, Mr. Harui Fuden was once a colleague who got along well with Kuroba Toichi.

This is the senior he respected, so after discovering that the other party's account was abnormal, Kuroba Kaito was so active in wanting to understand the situation.

However, these doubts were no longer doubts after he heard the news of Nishiyama Wu's death.

Except for Tanaka Takahisa, Harui Fuden's relative, there was no reason for others to escape the king's order. It was too late to stop it now.

His keen hearing caught the sad sound of breaking air in time, and he knew that Tanaka Takahisa had finally made up his mind to take action. While sighing, he was a little dissatisfied with Tang Ze, the guy who claimed to cut off the cycle of evil.

What on earth are you protecting!

"No, although I decided not to stop her actions, I still made it a lot more difficult for her." Tangze shook his finger, "I attracted two detectives by myself, and they are both top-notch active-duty ones. If she If she can withstand such intensity to kill someone, I really admire her mobility."

This time, without the external intervention of physical discomfort, Conan's role is not as simple as passing a message.

Coupled with the aggressive White Horse detective who ran in to block Kidd, it would be quite difficult for Takahisa Tanaka to imagine killing his enemy without hindrance as before.

"Why did you lure that Hakuba guy here?" Even through the thick mask, the corners of Kuroba Kaito's mouth twitched significantly. "He tested you a few words, don't be too imitative." ”

"You don't really think that Hakuba came back to Japan to catch you, do you?" Karasawa looked back with disdain, "He was just looking for a reason, don't take it too seriously."

Toru Amuro was a little unhappy with Hakuba Detective's attitude of eagerly catching monster thieves. That was because Amuro Toru didn't know this person very well.

However, Tangze knew very well that Detective White Horse's attitude towards Kidd was similar to Conan's.

If you have an opponent who can match you in terms of intelligence and will not really harm society, then playing chess with him a few times and deciding the winner in the confrontation will be a challenging and interesting thing.

To say that he gave up his good detective career in the UK and transferred all the way to Japan just because of a few provocative words on the Internet and the news that Kidd was active was a bit too disrespectful.

"The purpose of that guy Hakuba might be similar to yours." Tang Ze raised his hand and tapped his collar suggestively.

This is the second time he has clicked on this location.

When he was a joker, the metal brooch from his father hung here.

"Maybe he used other methods and came to a similar conclusion to you. There is an inseparable relationship between magicians and X-alloy."

While speaking, Tangze reached out and opened the closed bathroom door.

A sharp arrow almost grazed his cheek, leaving a golden sheen on its trajectory and nailing it to the wall behind them.

Tangze pointed at the short arrow.

There, metal of unknown material, like brass or gold, pulled sharp thin steel wires and was firmly nailed into the wall.
