The Phantom Thief of Heart! But Conan.

"Hey, are you interested in accepting the award? That's fine with me." Tang Ze blinked and pretended to be dumbfounded.

"Who is interested?" Even though he was on the phone, Karasawa seemed to see Kuroba Kaito jumping three feet high. "Although the painting is very ordinary, it is also a work that I worked hard on. Do you want to Leave the award empty?”

"You say you have no interest in the Grand Prize, but in fact you are quite concerned about it..." Tang Ze raised his eyebrows and found it interesting.

"Just because I'm not in the industry doesn't mean that I don't know anything about the art world." Kuroba Kaito rolled his eyes, "Anyway, I've done what I need to remind you. If you really don't accept the award, I'm not the one who's embarrassed. "

Kitagawa Yusuke is a fake member of the Phantom Thieves fabricated by Karasawa. His identity is an art student studying art at a vocational school in Cupido. His parents died and he was raised by a teacher who taught him painting. However, he was later exposed by the Phantom Thieves. His teacher plagiarized the works of his disciples and even took the legacy of Kitagawa Yusuke's mother as his own...

The above are all the character settings that Tang Ze told him in detail.

The setting is novel, the characters' motivations are complete, and it is very telling. If Kitagawa Yusuke becomes famous in the art world in the future, this is a background story that can be written into many art theory industry papers and journals.

Unfortunately, there is a huge loophole in this story, that is, Kitagawa Yusuke himself and his teacher do not exist.

As usual, registration for the Grand Prize needs to include the organization to which the contestant belongs to facilitate communication with the Grand Prize. Once Karasawa himself did not go to receive the prize, the organizer of the Grand Prize contacted the relevant school in Cupido Town, and the identity of the other party would have to be solved. Will be exposed on the spot.

"Hey, you can actually see that..." Kuroba Kaito, who had always assumed that Karasawa had no artistic talent, and the rare part that he learned on the fly, was greatly shocked.

"So, you are ready to continue participating in character creation? I know that you still like Kitagawa's story." Karasawa took the words smoothly and climbed up the pole smoothly, "Thank you in advance."

"Of course I haven't forgotten this." With Noah here, even if Tangze himself doesn't pay attention, the schedule that should be completed will be carried out under Noah's plan. "I'm just a little surprised. It turns out you quite like it." This is a painting.”

"Ah? What did you say? Well, it looks like the signal is not good. Let's settle it first."

"Your acting is too exaggerated. Hey, Tang Ze! Damn it, you still hung up on me. The price of your next painting will have to go up. The price will go up!"

"...Okay, I take back my previous comment. You are still a sensible guy." The tone of the reply was quite reserved, but Kuroba Kaito's eyebrows on the other end of the phone were already raised proudly, "Even if you are like this If all entry-level players can feel it, then this award is well-deserved. Come on, my tasteless ally, and let Kitagawa Yusuke’s name be heard all over the world.”

Kuroba Kaito generally disagrees with many of Karasawa's tastes. He feels that although he calls himself a Phantom Thief, it is difficult to count him as a peer. Only in terms of cosplay, he highly praises Karasawa's serious attitude. of.

"Stop talking nonsense." Kuroba Kaito refused to admit.

If it were Karasawa in the past, he would not be able to see so many things. Especially, as a person with extraordinary artistic appreciation, Kuroba Kaito does not have any personal works that have been circulated in the world. I want to analyze his style. It is difficult to find a basis for evaluation.

Kitagawa Yusuke, who faced up to himself, struggled with emotions and was tempered by life, almost regarded painting as the meaning of his life. He must have been able to feel the strong emotions and gushing passion from that painting.

"Not only can I see it, I even think that if Kitagawa Yusuke really exists in the world... he should also like this painting very much." After imagining the attitude of the poor man himself, Karasawa smiled. .

But now, he has the ability to appreciate, which comes from the personal abilities provided by his co-ops, and also includes the influence of Asai Narumi, Haibara Ai and others these days.

"Aren't you quite devoted when you were painting?" Karasawa squinted at the phone, trying to send his contemptuous eyes to Kuroba Kaito through the radio waves.

If you want to play a person, you should understand his words and deeds, and the logical motivations of various actions, so that they will not be easily seen through. And when the identity you need to play is a fictional character, you need a solid character background as supplementary material. .

Thinking of this possibility, Kuroba Kaito, who felt unhappy no matter how much he thought about it, made the call.

It's a pity that this guy Tang Ze can't understand...

Kuroba Kaito deeply agreed. When drawing this entry, he fully considered the character description given by Karasawa and imagined what kind of brushstrokes and style such a student painter would have, completely incorporating the other person's character. in perspective.

From the perspective of a mature art connoisseur, this painting is not mature enough or stunning enough. It needs more polishing and experience. However, from the perspective of an actor, Kaito Kuroba is quite proud of this work. .

"Hey! Who agreed! You didn't say this was a long-term order at the beginning!"

Kuroba Kaito's true level is definitely higher than that of the entry, but this does not mean that the painting was made randomly by him. No matter what the reason, Karasawa is very grateful.

"Is this the target data you are about to process?" After playing with the web page background on the computer for a while, Zhu Fu Jingguang looked at the names neatly listed in the to-do list by Noah and asked curiously.

"Yes. The number of views on the website is relatively large now, and it is difficult for just a few of us to manually process this information, so Noah is doing the preliminary screening, and only those who are undecided will be handed over to us for decision-making. This Hoshikawa and June are usually in charge of the work," Miyano Akemi filed the compiled accounts and answered casually.

Tang Ze usually does this by himself when it comes to getting new team members familiar with the work style.

However, he was called away by a call from Kuroba Kaito and rushed to Cupido Town to process Kitagawa Yusuke's identity and background. Hoshikawa Teru went to Teidan to study, and the job fell on Miyano Akemi.

"Then how do you determine whether the other party needs to 'change their mind'? I checked the website for a while, and the anonymous commenters seemed to provide some ambiguous information. How do you distinguish between the truth and the truth?" Regarding the work of the Phantom Thieves, Zhu Fu Jingguang was still very curious.

He just understood the current situation through Hoshikawa Teru's dry introduction and cooperated with his own inquiries on the Internet. Although he had anticipated the development of the matter at that time, he had not agreed to join the Phantom Thieves after all, so he politely said No questions asked.

Later, after meeting Rei Fukiya, Rei gave him some instructions, but judging from his appearance, he didn't know much about the work of the Phantom Thieves.

Especially when Rei told him after much struggle, "It's best not to tell me any information that goes against the rules and interests of the Phantom Thieves." That kind of regret that the information was in advance but could not be inquired out of morality for a friend, It's literally written on his face.

It feels like a lot of hard work, zero.

"That's right..." Miyano Akemi, who had finished organizing the documents, remembered something and turned to look at Morofushi Kagemitsu thoughtfully, "You have joined the Phantom Thieves without ever seeing the situation there. Where are the people..."
