The Phantom Thief of Heart! But Conan.

"YOU CRY..." Standing at the gate of Yokohama Marine University, Nanatsuki Koshimizu observed the nameplate at the gate for a while, then walked straight into the university.

Although it is not obvious from her appearance, and she is indeed not much older than the others, she is indeed the oldest among the high school detectives invited today, and is now a college student.

She was still very calm when she walked into other people's universities, and found the place she wanted on the relevant signboard with almost no effort.

"Criminal Research Club, well, this name is already weird." Pulling his sunglasses, Nanatsuki Koshimizu looked at the poster oddly, "Can this name really attract new students to join? Or is it just to make up an abbreviation, specially chosen for wordplay?"

"Neither. It's because each of their club leaders is quite rich. Joining their club has very good benefits. There are also regular picnics and social gatherings. The various activities and social practice content are also very good, which can be used as extra points for the experiment."

Koshimizu Nanatsuki raised her head and looked behind her. She saw Hakuba's face and couldn't help but lower her brows in a strange way: "... Hakuba? Why are you here?"

Bai Batan was indeed a member of this investigation, so it was not surprising to know that she was in college, but the four of them had their own tasks after a division of labor.

Following the clues he got about the night cafe, Hattori Heiji went to the scene of the armored car robbery. Akechi said that he had more experience in shooting cases, so he went to the Far East Investment Consulting Company where Nishio Masaharu died. In theory, Hakuba Detective should have gone back to use the database he built and his connections in the police force to investigate the company behind the mountains and their related business information.

Although it is possible that Bai Ma investigated very quickly, so that he had time to look at others after finishing his part, it is not unreasonable for him to appear here anyway.

The young man grinned, walked over and patted her on the shoulder: "What's wrong? We divided the work and investigated, and there is competition. Can't I come over to see how you are doing?"

"Well, that's not the case..." Nanatsuki Koshimizu looked at his face, thought for a moment, and suddenly blinked in realization, "Could it be that you are someone in the group...?"

In addition to the detectives invited by Ito Suehiko, of course, other members of the Phantom Thieves are also paying attention to this case.

Nanatsuki Koshimizu didn't know how many of the other members of the Phantom Thieves could disguise themselves, but it was true that there were makeup artists in the Phantom Thieves who could do it. There was not much difference between disguising for others and doing it for yourself.

Ito Suehiko is a person with particularly developed brain circuits, or it’s okay to say that he is not mentally normal.

Since it is indeed difficult for normal people to understand his thinking, and although there are many abnormal people in the group, those who are so crazy are still a minority, so until now, no one has found the specific form of his temple.

Therefore, Mingzhi chose the most dangerous direction among several directions, which is to try to contact Shimizu Reiko directly.

This is something that other detectives cannot see, but she, who is connected to the Phantom Thieves, knows very well, so she came to find him at this time...

"Um, is there something wrong with the group?" Nanatsuki Koshimizu, who had been in a relaxed posture, immediately straightened his back. "If you need my assistance, of course it's no problem for me to help."

As for the university club, please note that the investigation was conducted for Ito Suehiko. As for how he and the other two people involved in the robbery got to know each other, how their relationship developed into planning a crime together, and finally becoming enemies, you can get a glimpse of it just by understanding some of their experiences in college.

However, this part has already been solved by the Phantom Thieves and Akechi in the group. The investigations of others are more about verification and checking some missed details. It is not so important whether she goes or not.

But if the palace of Ito Suehiko has been cracked, the situation will be different.

As a non-staff member, the only thing I can do to assist the Phantom Thieves outside of my spare time and detective work is fighting.

"Well, that's not the case. I just came here to take a look because I'm interested..." "Hakuba Tan" took out his phone and shook the Kaito LINE interface on it. "You are PS02, right?"

That’s right, regarding the issue of group chat, the Phantom Thieves did not fool Kidd. Nanatsuki Koshimizu and Kyosuke Hanega were both in that larger group.

But I don’t know if it’s for identity protection or because they haven’t given themselves code names yet, so they’re just being perfunctory, but both of their nicknames are very simple, PS01 and PS02.

Yes, that’s the PS in postscript, which is the abbreviation of postscript.

...I don’t know how high this number will reach in the future, but judging from the fact that they have prepared for double digits from the beginning, at least the Phantom Thieves’ ambition is here.

Koshimizu Nanatsuki frowned.

Logically speaking, all the members of the Phantom Thieves, except for PS01 who is not part of the group, should know her identity very well.

On the island, when she awakened, all the members of the Phantom Thieves were fully equipped. They came from the cognitive world to kill her, and she gave them a courtesy escort out of the country.

He didn't know her identity, but he knew about the group chat, was in the group, and could disguise himself, so he must be...

"Kaito Kidd?" Nanatsuki Koshimizu narrowed her eyes and asked a question in a very firm tone.

"Miss Detective is very smart." Kuroba Kaito, who had no intention of hiding his identity, waved his hand with a smile, causing Nanatsuki Koshimizu, who was not used to seeing such an expression on Hakuba's face, to shrink to the side. "Don't worry, I'm not here to cause trouble. I'm just a little interested in your investigation."

Of course, he originally had little interest.

It was quite interesting for him to hang out in the Phantom Thieves group every day. Watching this group of people who seemed to be living in another world, chatting about some deep secrets that were not easy to understand, really brought some fun to his life.

But Kuroba Kaito has his own things to do.

Whether dealing with the Hakuba detective who came to his class, or dealing with other people who had interactions with him and thus began to discover his identity, his main work goals and directions, including the opportunity to cooperate with the Phantom Thieves of Hearts, are still what he mainly does.

Looking for his father, looking for the person who "killed" his father.

So although he was happy to have nothing to do and see what these colleagues who were not in the same industry were doing, he was generally not interested in intervening unless they asked.

But this time, things are different.

"Soichiro Fukayama is the one you're after. There are some things in his collection that interest me." Kuroba Kaito said bluntly, "But I didn't come here to steal them. I'm more interested in how he got his things."

Everyone in the world who knows Kaito Kidd knows that Kidd’s main target of theft is gems.

The same is true for Kuroba Kaito, who followed his father's path and inherited the title.

Therefore, paying attention to the jewelry collection world, understanding the whereabouts of various rare treasures, screening out suspicious targets among them, and finding suitable opportunities, such as accidental exhibitions, changes of venues, and changes of hands due to transactions, is an important preliminary preparation part of his work.

It was during this process that he basically confirmed that Shenshan, a collector who also set up a personal exhibition hall, had items of questionable origin.

"More than half of his stuff is stolen goods." Kuroba Kaito put away his playful expression, put his hands in his pockets, and said seriously, "There are many people and organizations who steal gems and resell them, but such a stable and long-term supply is unusual."

Although his style is still somewhat different from the temperament of Bai Ma Tan, it does have a bit of a detective flavor.

Nanatsuki Koshimizu couldn't help but come back to her senses from the surprise of having a mysterious thief find her side, and started to think about what he had sent her.

"Didn't he organize the theft himself?" Koshimizu Nanatsuki checked the information he knew, "According to Joker, Shimizu Reiko was the planner of the robbery, but the logistics supporting them were done by Fukayama Soichiro. After eliminating the unstable factors of Ito Suehiko and Nishio Masaharu, Shimizu Reiko should have split the stolen money with him."

"He mainly steals money." Kuroba Kaito shook his head. "An amateur team recruited from college students, after training and careful planning, may be able to rob a bank, but robbing famous jewelry is a bit disrespectful to the organizers."

This isn't something that can be displayed openly in a shop. You can't just go over and smash it and it's done.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

The fact that a gem that Kaito Kid coveted appeared in Soichiro Fukayama's inventory and it was stolen goods was rather suspicious.

"Oh, so you suspect that he bought it from your opponent, or exchanged it for something of equal value?" Koshimizu Nanatsuki suddenly realized.

Joker would not take the initiative to talk about such things in a large group, but from the recent chat content between him and Kidd, we can roughly see why Kaito Kidd is in this group.

Simply put, the enemies they both sides need to deal with are not the same group of people, but they do have something in common.

The organization that Kidd faced was a gang of thieves who, like him, targeted various types of jewelry and tried to find something in them.

"We can't rule out this possibility." Kuroba Kaito nodded, "So I came to take a look. Don't worry, I will try my best not to cause you any trouble and will not appear in front of the genuine Hakuba."

As the two were talking, they had already found the gate of the Crime Research Society by following the activity location indicated on the bulletin board.

As a student club, it was naturally placed in an office building. As soon as the door was opened, one could feel the strong atmosphere of not being short of money.

Although club activity rooms are standard for many interest clubs, it is a bit rare to occupy such a large activity room and decorate it basically according to one's own needs.

There are still two or three students in the activity room. When someone opened the door and walked in directly, and it was someone they didn't know very well, they just glanced at him and lowered their heads as if it was normal.

Nanatsuki Koshimizu observed their reactions and asked, "You just said that their method of attracting new members is through club benefits? Fraternities, event prizes, and other things, credits and event funds..."

"Yes, that's right. Since the beginning in the mountains, every leader of this club has never lacked money." With outsiders who didn't know his identity around, Kuroba Kaito was still very dedicated and almost immediately showed the confident smile that Hakuba Tanpei usually had, "Not to mention that he has been investing in and supporting the club since graduation. He even donated a lot of equipment to their club."

His eyes were on the projector and information rack beside him, as well as more entertainment equipment related to detective reasoning, but Nanatsuki Koshimizu still heard the teasing voice-over.

Mainly donated a lot of guns and ammunition, right? This kind of senior is really too handcuffed.

"So, how many people are there in their club?" Nanatsuki Koshimizu asked the key question.

I have no qualms about seeing strangers walk in. Either the club is recruiting new members very quickly and there are always new faces, or the club has so many members that it is not realistic to get to know everyone.

"…Now, it's probably 324." Kuroba Kaito, who had made sufficient preparations before coming, gave a very accurate number.

"No wonder." Nanatsuki Koshimizu turned her head and looked at the photos on the photo wall, including group photos of activities, graduation photos, etc. Her eyes slid across those young faces, and her heart sank.

It is true that Ito Suehiko was a man of extraordinary talent, as he was sent straight to prison before he even graduated from university. It is indeed rare for him to stuff prison food into his mouth, but this is mainly because he himself had some problems.

Look at the company he set up outside of school. He stuffed his girlfriend and college friends into it and gave them positions to collect salaries. He knew how to do it, so there was no reason why Shenshan would not follow suit.

Even if he is not so rebellious, and not such a small boss controlling the big boss, and he really robs when his girlfriend asks him to, would the young people who come out of this society and receive the benefits of the society's related resources be more inclined to work in enterprises deep in the mountains?

This is a senior who clearly knows the other party's background and may have had some contact with him in past activities.

It is even possible that if you perform well in the club, you will be offered a job by seniors in advance, and you won’t even have to worry about finding a job.

Among traditional Japanese companies, many have a lifetime employment system. Once you get the job, it's almost like you have a job that pays off. You can also enter the social circle that you were familiar with when you were in college. How many college students can refuse such a good thing?

And once you really enter the system deep in the mountains, and find out that the company you work for may have some illegal operations or be involved in illegal industries, how many people are willing to give up their jobs and fight them to the end?

"... Relying on spending money to develop students from your alma mater is really insidious." Nanatsuki Koshimizu shook her head, but her hands moved very honestly.

She started following the photos and took out her phone to frantically take photos for evidence.

The good thing is that this is a club that likes to use money to buy cohesion. These photos may not include everyone, but those who actively participate in club life will definitely be included.

First give it to the group for screening, and then pack it and send it to the Yokohama police. It can be considered an efficient way to catch them all in one fell swoop.
