A Detective: I Believe in Science

Chapter 112 What a coincidence, we meet again

The light inside the castle tower was like daylight, but the top was pitch-black. Conan, who was squatting in the shadow, vaguely felt that something was wrong.

"Hatto, do you feel something is wrong, is it too quiet here?"

"So you have it too. I always feel that we seem to have missed some important clues."

"Let's think about it, the place where Kidd appeared in that teaser letter is glowing... glowing."

"I see!"

The two got up at the same time, and they finally found out what was wrong. They thought that Suzuki's museum was in Osaka Castle, and the attic where Kidd should appear was the castle tower.

But the top of the castle tower was pitch black, which did not conform to the notice letter sent out, so the place where he descended was another loft in Osaka.

"Tsungtenkaku"

Thinking of this, the two hurriedly ran down the castle tower, towards the direction of Tsutenkaku. Fortunately, Hattori came here on a motorcycle today, and there is still hope that they can catch up.

……

At this time, Officer Nakamori and his two subordinates were not guarding the Suzuki House Museum, but curled up in a dilapidated warehouse.

The egg of memory in the museum was the bait for Nakamori to find someone to let it go. The real egg of memory is now placed among them, and is closely watched by the three of them.

At 10:[-] p.m., [-] minutes before the notice letter appeared, Kidd was already wearing his iconic costume and standing on the top of the Babel Tower.

With that perpetually bohemian smile on his face, he took out a remote control from his pocket and pressed it lightly.

Fireworks were suddenly set off around the castle tower, eye-catching and attracting the attention of passers-by on the road.

Conan and Hattori also saw the fireworks. Instead of doubting their reasoning, they became more certain.

These fireworks are probably Kidd's means of diverting attention.

In fact, Kidd did succeed, and the museum police were on the alert.

Kidd saw that the time was almost almost up, and when he pressed another button on the remote control, explosions occurred around the Osaka power station, and the whole of Osaka fell into the world of night.

The impact of the power outage threw the whole of Osaka into chaos, traffic lights no longer displayed, traffic jams began on the street, and then blocked.

Hattori and Conan looked at the congested streets, and then at Tsutenkaku, which was close at hand. They resolutely abandoned their motorcycles and ran towards Tsutenkaku.

After seeing the power outage in the house, Officer Nakamori thought that Kidd was coming, and hurriedly ordered his men to turn on the generator and light up the warehouse.

As everyone knows, this happened to be Kidd's trap. At this time, he was carefully observing which places in Osaka were generating electricity with a telescope in his hand.

Kidd skipped Osaka No. [-] Hospital, school, hotel, and others one by one, until he saw the warehouse where Officer Nakamori and the others were located, the corners of his mouth slightly curled up.

"Got you."

At exactly 07:30, I jumped off Tsutenkaku, opened the hang glider behind me, and flew straight to the warehouse where Officer Nakamori was located.

Hattori and Conan had just run a certain distance when they saw a familiar figure in the sky above them.

"Kid!"

The two hurriedly turned back and followed Kidd's direction.

"Conan, you go first, I'll go around and chase him by bike, otherwise we won't be able to keep up with his speed."

"it is good."

The two split up, Conan ran straight to the direction Kidd left, and Hattori returned to the place just now and rode back on his motorcycle.

Kidd came to the window of the warehouse where Police Officer Nakamori was located, and after seeing the situation inside the house clearly, his face was full of relief.

Throwing down the tear gas they carried with them, the eyes of the three people in the room were choked so hard that they couldn't see the situation in front of them clearly.

Officer Nakamori subconsciously wanted to reach out to protect the egg of memory in front of him, but found nothing.

Feeling bad, he wanted to open his eyes but was unable to do anything. When the smoke cleared, the egg of memory had disappeared, leaving only him and his two subordinates in the room.

"Damn it, he succeeded again, so hurry up and ask someone to chase it."

After giving the order, Officer Nakamori hurried out of the warehouse to observe the direction of Kidd's escape, but found nothing, and there was no figure in the sky.

Conan had lost Kidd's figure, stood there and looked up at the sky to observe, not long after, he saw Kidd reappear in sight,

He knew that Kidd had already succeeded, and he was about to escape. This was his last chance.

"Conan, get in the car."

Hattori rode a motorcycle and stopped beside Conan. At this time, the traffic order in Osaka was completely chaotic.

Unable to walk through the streets, Hattori, as a native of Osaka, naturally knows where to walk quickly.

Riding a motorcycle, the two started a tracking trip along the banks of the Osaka River.

What came to mind was that because Hattori was observing Kidd's movement in the sky, he didn't pay attention to the guardrail in front of him, and hit it hard, unable to move.

Block Conan's movement to help him up, signal that he is fine, and ask the other party to chase after him quickly. According to the situation just now, Kidd is almost unable to fly.

Without hesitation, the tacit understanding between the friends is so high, Conan turned and ran in the direction Kidd left.

After walking not far, when I saw a bicycle on the side of the road, no matter whether the owner was present or not, I rode it and chased after it.

Because if you don't want to chase him any more, Kidd's figure will almost disappear.

Kidd may be looking for a place to land, but the speed has slowed down, and Conan is gradually catching up with him.

Suddenly, Conan felt a sudden throbbing in his heart, and turned his head to look at the street on the river bank. A black shadow shrouded in night was aiming at Kidd with a gun.

"boom"

Sombra's marksmanship is very high. During Kidd's flight, he accurately hit Kidd's right eye. After hitting him, he turned and left without delay.

Conan was in a dilemma and didn't know which one to chase first. Seeing Kidd gradually falling into the Osaka River, he hurried to check.

After reaching the approximate location, Kidd was no longer visible, only a wounded pigeon and the memory egg stolen by the other party.

Picking up the egg of memory, looking at the slowly flowing river, Conan thought to himself.

"He shouldn't die!"

……

Koizumi Hongzi's House

Koizumi Hongko, who was having dinner, stopped the tableware in her hand, her heart skipped a beat just now.

This is very abnormal, since she became the heir of Red Magic, she hasn't felt this way for a long time.

Thinking of what Kaito said to himself today, he hurriedly took out the crystal ball and started to deduce.

Seeing the moment Kidd was shot and fell into the river shown above, Koizumi immediately took out her magic broom and flew to Osaka.

……

After Noah left the kimono department, he kept wandering in the street. When he saw the fishing tackle shop next to him, he remembered that he used to be a good fisherman.

I went into the store and bought a good fishing rod, and ran to the Osaka River to find a remote place to start my leisure fishing time.

Unexpectedly, fishing fishing actually fell asleep, and when he woke up again, it was already dark.

Thinking that Kidd should have succeeded by this time, he prepared to pack up the fishing rod and prepare to go home.

When I lifted the fishing rod, I found a figure slowly emerging from the center of the river, and that figure was gradually swimming towards me.

"Could it be that I met a water ghost?"

After muttering in a low voice, he silently pulled out the wooden sword in his system and waited for it.

When the figure gradually approached the river, Noah couldn't help but widen his eyes when he saw the figure's appearance.

"Quick...quick fight?"

"Noah, why are you here, aren't you in Tokyo?"

"Come to travel."

The situation of Kaito in front of him is indeed a bit miserable, his upper body is naked, there are bloodstains in the corners of his eyes, the evening wind is blowing, and he just climbed up from the river, his whole body is shivering.

Thinking about the friendship between the two after all, Noah took off his coat and threw it to him.

"Thank you, the water is really cold."

"...Let's not talk about water, why are you in such a mess? Didn't you go to steal the eggs of memories?"

Kaito quickly recounted his plans and encounters.

"Did you see the man who shot you?"

"No, the sky was too dark. I was still in the sky at that time, and I was too far away. If you let me know who it is, I must get back to the place."

Seeing Kaito gnashing his teeth angrily, Noah didn't know what to say about him, no one could see clearly, who to seek revenge on.

"Speaking of which, why did you just come to Osaka during your travels? You didn't wait for me on purpose, did you?"

"You think too much."

Noah also told him what happened in the past few days, and said that he deliberately came here to fish in order to avoid him.

"Then our two brothers are destined to each other, and we can't even hide."

Kaito sighed immediately, Noah had tried his best to avoid the two meeting each other, but unexpectedly they still bumped into each other.

I also want to thank the other party for his coat, otherwise I will have a cold tomorrow, which may affect my next actions.

"There is fate, and I think it is also evil fate."
