The Phantom Thief of Heart! But Conan.

"Wanting to fool the detectives and the police may be what most criminals think, but not many people can do it. Do you think you are one of them?"

"Why, do you have any other ideas about this, Detective Akechi?"

"Most of Detective Maori's analysis is correct, whether it's about you or Shimizu Reiko..." Tang Ze walked forward slowly with a pistol in hand, "There is only one thing that is difficult for both the police and the detectives to assert. But now I can tell you the answer."

"Which point?" Ito Suehiko keenly realized that in this sentence, Goro Akechi did not position himself as a "detective", and his hands gripping the armrests tightened slightly.

Another significant difference between him and other young detectives is that Goro Akechi is not used to wearing sneakers or sports shoes like high school students would choose to go to school. Instead, he usually wears pointed Oxford shoes, which makes his footsteps particularly sharp and harsh, and when they echo in this monitoring room, they have a spine-chilling texture.

"That is, the one who handed you the gun, pushed you to the front, and tried to cover up her own tracks with your death... is indeed the perfect lover you mentioned, Shimizu Reiko."

“What are you talking about…?” Unable to turn around, Ito Suehiko barely raised his head.

"Why, do you want to deny this fact? Think about it carefully." Tang Ze made two gestures to Conan as he walked, signaling him to stay still. "Were you the one who sniped Nishio Masaharu at that time? Who was the one who asked you to drive to the port alone to dispose of the gun? Who caused you to panic and be chased by the police while driving, and then get into a car accident because of brake failure... Who were all these people?"

"You are going to come to the same conclusion as the police, that it was Reiko...?"

"You actually know the answer. You don't need me to answer it for you, nor do you need any famous detective to answer it for you." Tang Ze ignored his rebuttal and said to himself, "After all, you liked Shimizu Reiko's temperament at the beginning. She is rebellious, unruly, and not bound by any rules. She is someone you have never seen before who entered the university step by step... In other words, she is a bad person."

"Don't talk nonsense, Reiko can't possibly...!"

"Of course it's possible." Shimizu Reiko's voice sounded behind him, accompanied by the sound of the pistol's safety opening and the mechanical collision of the pistol loading, "Long time no see, Suehiko."

"Reiko, is it Reiko...!" Ito Suehiko, who had been bowing his head and enduring it patiently, suddenly raised his head as if he was suddenly awakened by the voice.

"He's right. Of course he can prove it. Because, these are..." Shimizu Reiko waved the gun in her hand and made a playful and cute expression, "...I told him personally."

"what?!"

Over there, Shimizu Reiko laughed heartily, ready to expose the lies created by this guy whom she had endured for so long, but Karasawa, who had already walked to Ito Suehiko's side, had no patience to listen to how this entangled couple loved and hated each other.

His palm covered the interface under the screen that Ito Suehiko couldn't reach at all, and pushed the USB flash drive that had been prepared long ago onto it.

A progress bar started moving quietly, and the screen was already dyed red by the errors that had previously filled the screen. Of course, Ito Suehiko and Shimizu Reiko, who were immersed in the blame-sharing contest, would not notice it.

Only Conan, who crouched and quietly slipped to the door, noticed the changes on the screen with his sharp eyes.

Amid the glaring blood-red color that filled the entire screen, a very familiar black shadow emerged.

Conan opened his eyes wide, feeling that this scene was strangely familiar.

Before he spoke, he also looked at the two lovers who were still arguing with fear, and then he uttered a very small exclamation in a breathy voice: "Joker——?!"

----

"He planted other bombs in the amusement park?! Is this bastard crazy? We have already defused so many of them...!"

"Please be patient, Trigger. We can't go outside for the time being." Asai Narimi grabbed Matsuda Jinpei who was about to leave. "There are still ten minutes left. We still have to believe in the detectives' ability. The police will arrive soon and evacuate the crowd in the amusement park."

This time, without the restriction of ID cards, it is not so easy to limit the activities of the "hostages".

"If you don't trust the police, you should trust the Leader." Asai Narimi said very clearly, "He's already here. Once he sends out the notice, we can complete the process... Then, it won't be too late to rush to the amusement park."

"Besides, even if we get out now, it will be difficult to make it in time." Miyano Akemi also shook her head. "The roller coaster is connected to the amusement park, but we are already in the secret treasure room. Before we successfully break through it, even if we use the different world navigation to leave, we will only enter Ito Suehiko's secret room..."

At this time, in addition to Karasawa, there were also Ito Suehiko himself, Shimizu Reiko, and Conan who was hesitating and wanted to see clearly how things were developing. In short, it was not easy to get in and out.

"But..." Matsuda Jinpei gritted his teeth and turned to look at Hagiwara Kenji.

If they were completely unrelated police officers, they might also be able to make these calm thoughts.

But if others couldn't recognize him, how could he not recognize him? It wasn't just any policeman...

"Ten minutes." Hagiwara Kenji, who had been staring at the screen, suddenly said, "Ten minutes before the explosion...?"

"Yes, that's what the screen showed just now. Noah is already tracking the signal. As long as we can cut it off before the time limit..."

Miyano Akemi winked at Shimabukuro Kimie, asking her to pay close attention to Hagiwara Kenji's situation.

However, before they could make any move, the control room they were in suddenly shook.

Through the screen, one can see that in the room outside, the preview letter from the Phantom Thieves played by Karasawa's hands is being replayed in Ito Suehiko's room.

"The arrogant and foolish Ito Suehiko-dono who is conceited, thinks he is above the ordinary people, and compares himself to Sisyphus..."

"What's that noise?!" Shimizu Reiko, who was still smugly telling Ito Suehiko how much she hated him, arched her back and turned around suddenly, trying to find the source of the sound.

But in the bright red color of the screen, I only saw a fluctuating triangle.

"...a false king who despised the value of life, neglected others, and even more neglected himself, devoured so many resources but still moaned without any reason..."

As the sound played, the red color on the screen changed little by little, and the triangle moved farther and farther away.

At this moment, everyone in the room who could still see understood the meaning of this picture.

That's not the whole screen full of red, that's the red scarf that has been infinitely magnified.

The scene zooms out further, and the Phantom Thief, who was with his back to the enemy, doesn't turn around until this moment.

"... Let us crush your self-deception, your fragility and your unreasonableness--!"

As the contents of the notice were read out bit by bit, as if completely enraged, the secret treasure room where they were was filled with red light, just like Ito Suehiko's room outside.

"Hold on tight, the alert level has been raised! The shadow, Ito Suehiko, may appear at any time!" Asai Narimi vigilantly drew the bow behind him.

Everyone reflexively went into alert mode, standing in a circle around Asai Narimi, the most common stance in battle.

The only one who stood there without moving was Kenji Hagiwara, who had not awakened yet and had not been able to cooperate with them in actual combat.

"Hey, Hagi——!" Jinpei Matsuda widened his eyes and wanted to reach out and grab his friend who seemed to be standing still because of the change in the situation.

"…You mean, within ten minutes…"

Hagiwara Kenji slowly raised his head.

"…If we can get rid of him, we'll be in time, right?"

“They are very shining people.”

“There is nothing wrong with that.”

“There’s nothing wrong with being a police officer.”

"Both are right and both are wrong."

"You agree with this, otherwise you wouldn't be on this path."

"But you don't agree with this either, because... this is not your voice."

"Hagi!" Jinpei Matsuda opened his eyes wide after realizing something.

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

"Now, finally, are you going to let out your own wail, pathetic follower?"

----

As the images on the screen changed, Ito Suehiko, who was already blind, could not see it, but Shimizu Reiko could see it clearly.

The red color gradually condensed and fluctuated, and the more it was pulled, the more it was selected. Gradually, only the fluttering bright red scarf of the thief was left, becoming the only red color in the black, white and gray background.

The background behind him was the colorless "Super Snake" - the giant roller coaster in Fantasy Park.

The Phantom Thief with flying white hair stared at it from afar. When only a bright red shadow remained on the camera, the white-haired Phantom Thief finally turned around and glanced in the direction of the camera.

The shape of a bright red eye lit up on the screen, an even brighter red than before, so bright that it was almost white, and it suddenly lit up as he seemed to see through the blindfold.

"This... is..." Ito Suehiko, who only had a faint sense of light left in his eyes, felt the bright light that seemed to penetrate directly into his retina. He suddenly spoke stiffly while sitting there in a daze, "Notice letter...?"

The red light was so bright and dazzling that it was annoying. Even Conan, who was hiding at the door and secretly observing, couldn't help but raise his hand to block his view, let alone Reiko Shimizu who was standing in front of it.

"What do you mean? The Phantom Thief of Hearts?!" Shimizu Reiko raised her hands to cover her eyes and screamed like a cat with its tail stepped on, "What are they going to do?!"

The complacent criminal seemed to have only woken up from his fantasy of manipulating the world at this moment and realized that he was far from the real high-IQ criminal who was free and unrestrained in his fantasy.

As if in response to her words, a slightly distorted chuckle came from the speaker, and then everything returned to silence.

"What he meant was..." Tang Ze, who had been prepared, put down his hand that had been blocking his sight, "If you play house for a long time, you will really have the illusion that you are the mastermind behind it. The children's playtime is over, Miss Shimizu."

"you……!"

Realizing that Goro Akechi was about to stab her in the back again, Reiko Shimizu widened her eyes and immediately raised her gun.

Tang Ze just looked at her quietly without saying anything. Instead, he turned his head and glanced at Conan, who was standing in the aisle, hesitant and unwilling to leave.

Then he pressed the switch next to Ito Suehiko.

"Hey...!" Conan realized that he didn't want him to continue watching, so he opened his eyes wide, "You can't just throw it away after using it--"

Unfortunately, the door in front of him had slowly closed. It was obvious that the other party did not intend to listen to him continue speaking, but was ready to get rid of him and lock him out.

After angrily kicking the motionless door, Conan immediately turned around and ran towards the meeting room.

Tsk, damn it, he knew that even if this guy Akechi Goro had good intentions, they were not much.

Wait, I'll get the remote and open the door again -

After confirming that the door was closed and the subsequent conversation would not be heard by the detective outside, Tang Ze turned his head and ignored Shimizu Reiko's hysterical shooting, and just snapped his fingers lightly.

In the pitch-black shadow - to be more precise, where Conan had just been hiding, a hand was raised and a shot was fired first, interrupting Reiko Shimizu's disorganized attack.

The bullet did not hit any of her vital parts, but it accurately grazed her wrist where the gun was held, leaving a line of blood.

"Ah—-" Reiko Shimizu covered her arm, the pistol fell out of her hand, and she fell to the ground.

"Reiko, Reiko! What's wrong with you!" Ito Suehiko, who couldn't see the situation around him, opened his eyes wide in vain and reached out his hand to feel around.

Tang Ze glanced at Xingchuan Hui who came out of the darkness and looked around.

Conan probably ran out to find the remote control to reopen the door, and everyone else should be focused on the amusement park right now.

No one can see it anyway, right? So just pretend to be simple.

"I don't know how you found me... Mr. and Miss Playhouse. But I have to say, your ability to commit crimes is not very good, but your ability to judge people is quite good."

Tang Ze slowly walked towards Reiko Shimizu and casually kicked away her small toy-like pistol that had fallen to the ground.

"Although you have done your best to belittle him, to be honest, you and he are essentially the same person. You don't have enough talent and you fantasize about things that don't belong to you. It's just that your cruelty covers up this problem, making you seem different.

"I almost forgot to mention that the part I talked about before was about the detective, 'Akechi Goro'.

"You guys have messed with someone you really shouldn't mess with. Let's get to know each other again. My name is—"

Karasawa bent down and stared at Shimizu Reiko with his golden eyes.

"——Kumair."
