When Maori Ran turned around, she saw Maori Kogoro running towards her anxiously, followed by Chairman Tani and the police. Her tense nerves finally relaxed.

Remembering that there was still the strange servant that had not been dealt with, Mao Lilan turned around and saw an empty place with the window at the back wide open.

"Strange, where did that weird man go?" asked Mao Lilan puzzledly.

Conan struggled to stand up from the ground and told Mao Lilan what he had just seen. His childish voice was filled with worry, "Sister Xiaolan, the man you just fought with jumped out of the window and escaped. We are safe now!"

After Conan finished speaking, a trace of deep thought flashed across his eyes. Xiaolan is a third-degree black belt in karate, and there are very few people who can beat her except professionals. This man is very good at defense, and he is definitely good at fighting, but when did this person appear in Tokyo?

"Ran, are you okay?" Kogoro Mouri hurried over, held Ran Mouri's shoulders and looked her up and down. After finding that there was no problem, he looked in other directions.

"Ah, here, Miss Tani Akiko is here, come on, take her to the doctor for a check-up." said Kogoro Mouri.

Conan pointed at the man lying on the ground and said childishly, "Uncle, this man is the bad guy who kidnapped me, and he also beat me!"

Kogoro Mori gave an order and asked his men to take the kidnapper away on the ground.

"Daughter, my dear daughter, how do you feel?" Chairman Gu asked with concern while holding his daughter, and did not allow the police to hold his daughter.

"Dad, I'm fine. My little brother and big brother protected me." said Gu Jingzi.

"Little brother? Big brother? Who are these?"

"The little brother on the ground, but the big brother is gone, the big brother is so handsome!"

"Uh, what?" Chairman Gu scratched his head in confusion. He didn't understand who the other person his daughter was talking about was. But it didn't matter. They should go to the hospital for a check-up.

Kogoro Mouri was listening to Ran Mouri telling him what had just happened. At the end, she started talking about the mysterious man who escaped.

"The man I fought with had been following us disguised as a servant. We saw him in Chairman Gu's yard. He stopped the kidnappers. I thought he was a bad guy, so I fought him. But he was just defending himself, and I still couldn't beat him. And I didn't sense any malice from him. Dad, this man is not simple."

Conan was only as tall as Ran Maori's knees. He raised his head and listened to their discussion. After thinking for a while, he held back his words. If he said what the man said to him, his identity would be exposed. He absolutely could not say it.

Damn it, who is this man and how does he know his identity? Conan clenched his fists, trying to figure it out.

After explaining everything, Mao Lilan looked down at Conan and said, "Conan, come on, I'll take you to treat your wound. You are such a brave kid. If it weren't for the big yellow dog leading us here, we wouldn't have arrived in time. It really makes me worried."

"Sister Xiaolan, it was the dog that took me there. It could smell something. Hehe, I didn't think too much about it." Conan said innocently, rubbing his head.

After a series of inspections were completed, they all left the warehouse. Maori Kogoro was invited by Chairman Tani to the yard of the villa, saying that his daughter Tani Akiko had something to say.

When everyone arrived, they saw Tani Jingzi bowing and apologizing, "I'm sorry, Dad. This was actually my idea. I asked Grandpa Aso to say this. I'm really sorry, everyone. I didn't expect such a serious accident to happen."

"Ah, what?" Everyone was shocked. They really didn't expect that this case was actually designed by the kidnapped person himself.

Tani Jingzi explained, "Because my father was busy with work every day and didn't care about me, I thought he didn't want me anymore, so I followed the plot on TV and let Grandpa Aso say that I was kidnapped."

"I just wanted my dad to take me out and spend some time with me after work. I didn't think too much about it at the time. But, who knew I was really kidnapped."

"I see," Maori Kogoro analyzed, holding his chin, "It turns out that the kidnapping at the beginning was just an act. I didn't expect the kidnappers to take advantage of it and directly kidnap Miss Tani Akiko."

Chairman Gu finally understood his daughter's intentions, so he pretended to be angry and said, "Even so, I will never forgive you for helping Jingzi to deceive me, right, Aso!"

"Yes, sir."

Chairman Gu changed the subject and continued, "To punish you, you should plan a week-long trip to atone your sins. Go to Australia, where my daughter wants to go the most."

"Ah, Master," Aso was surprised, and then nodded in response, "Yes, Master, thank you for your tolerance, I will definitely do it, I will do it without hesitation!"

The incident ended here, and Kogoro Mori took all the credit for this achievement.

Tani Jingzi turned around, looked at Conan, and blinked, "Thank you, Detective."

Mao Lilan was surprised by Tani Akiko's address, "What detective, Conan?"

"No, she wasn't talking about me. She must have been talking to Uncle Maori. I'm just a child."

After they set off to return, Conan had a reason to stay at Maori Ran's house for a long time, and Maori Kogoro also agreed.

Jiang Chuan Shang looked at the increasing plot points, smiled silently, turned his head to look at the safe surrounded by various professionals, inside which was a large sparkling gem.

Officer Ginzo Nakamori is setting up the cordon.

Kaito Kid's previous identity was Kuroba Toichi, the father of Kuroba Kaito, the top magician and the person Kuroba Kaito admired the most. He disappeared in an accident eight years ago, and Kaito Kid has never appeared since then. People outside are rumoring whether Kaito Kid has passed away.

Kuroba Kaito's lifelong dream is to find out the reason why his father disappeared or died.

Egawakami looked at the time on his watch, it was 22:48. Calculating the time, before this, Kuroba Kaito should have discovered the secret room left by his father and inherited it.

Soon, Kuroba Kaito will meet the butler who is pretending to be Kaito Kid today.

Jiang Chuan Shang thought, standing calmly in the crowd, he still had the face of an ordinary servant today.

After touching his face, Jiang Chuan Shang thought, next time he should get a police identity and sneak in openly. He is an art teacher, so it is easy to make a psychological profile.

With this in mind, he used his phone to submit his resume. Maybe he would receive a message for the assessment and joining the team tomorrow. At school, Jiang Chuan Shang had already applied to change from Class B of the second year of high school to Class B of the first year of elementary school. When the time comes, he can go to both.

Jiang Chuan Shang, who was very busy every day, was thinking this when he heard Officer Nakamori shouting to remind everyone present.

"Everyone, remember, the distinctive features of Kaito Kid are his white cape and white silk hat, so keep your eyes open and see clearly!" Then, Officer Nakamori sighed, "Oh, I haven't been so excited for a long time."

Officer Nakamori looked at the time and reminded, "It's almost time before the announcement. Everyone, get ready and keep a close watch."

The spectators had been cleared out, and Jiang Chuan Shang was hiding nearby.

Everyone silently recited in their hearts, and the time began to count down.

"three"

"two"

"One"

That's how it was. At the last second, the exhibition hall and the entire building fell into darkness.

Officer Nakamori reacted very quickly. The moment the lights went out, he shouted, "Quick, turn on the emergency lights. How could this happen?"

Just as he gave the order, the safe at the back made a crisp shattering sound. Everyone turned around and used flashlights to illuminate the safe, and saw a man in the same uniform breaking the safe, grabbing the gem and running away quickly.

Officer Nakamori immediately shouted, "Ah, it's him, Kaito Kidd, that guy is back, chase him!"

As everyone was chasing, they saw Kaito Kidd break through the glass of the building, jump down, and scream in surprise.

Officer Nakamori leaned over the window and looked down. "Why did he jump down?" He laughed. "Haha, so stupid! There are a bunch of policemen waiting for him down there!"

Before he finished laughing, he received a message from his subordinates, "Officer Nakamori, this is a puppet, not Kaito Kid."

"What?! Where did he go?" Officer Nakamori looked around, "He must still be in this building. Quick, search him."

Egawakami then went to the rooftop, where he waited for Kuroba Kaito to confront Kuroba Toichi, the butler dressed as Kaito Kid, and Kuroba Toichi's servant.

Sure enough, within three seconds, the butler, who was wearing a police uniform and pretending to be Kaito Kid, climbed up along the rope.

And Kuroba Kaito fell from the sky wearing Kaito Kid's white dress.

"Throwing the puppet down to confuse the view, and then climbing up yourself, what an old-fashioned trick. This will damage the reputation of the Phantom Thief."

The butler opened his eyes wide, looking in disbelief at the figure in a white dress standing tall under the moonlight.

The familiar outfit shocked him so much that his voice trembled: "Who... who are you?"

"Sorry for the wait." Kuroba Kaito straightened his body and spoke every word seriously, "I am Kaito Kidd."

As soon as he finished speaking, he leaped forward and floated lightly down from the top of the tower.

The butler stared at him closely and tore off his police uniform without hesitation, revealing a surprising scene - his body disappeared out of thin air, leaving only his hands and head clearly visible, as if the whole person was invisible.

"In that case, let's see if you have the ability to break this trick!" The butler challenged coldly. He was not sure whether the person in front of him was Kuroba Toichi or someone else pretending to be Kaito Kid like him, so he planned to use a trick to see through the other party's identity.

Faced with this sudden situation, Kuroba Kaito's expression changed slightly, but he quickly reminded himself to stay calm.

At the same time, the words that his father, Kuroba Toichi, had once taught him flashed through his mind like lightning.

"Remember, the most important thing for a magician is..."

Kuroba Toichi's voice seemed to echo in his ears, and Kuroba Kaito followed closely behind, keeping these words in mind. In an instant, his confidence doubled, and his eyes became more determined.

"The most important thing for a magician is to keep a poker face!"

After the butler finished speaking provocatively, he launched an attack towards Kuroba Kaito with great momentum.

However, just as he rushed over, he accidentally exposed his flaw in the moonlight.

"Haha, this way you won't be able to see my body!"

Unfortunately, his wish did not come true.

As the butler's attack failed, a doll's head suddenly fell off.

He was stunned for a moment, and at this moment, a poker card came like lightning and hit him hard in the face.

Instantly, the mask shattered into countless pieces and scattered all over the floor. While he was still in shock, the mirror on his body also shattered as if it were under a spell.

Kuroba Kaito flipped over swiftly, stood up steadily, and quickly turned around to look back.

At the same time, he held a rifle tightly in his hand and aimed accurately at the butler who was pretending to be Kaito Kid.

The corners of his mouth slightly raised, and he said with a disdainful smile: "This trick to fool children is really laughable. Do you think that by surrounding your body with mirrors, you can make your body blend into the surrounding environment and achieve invisibility? Let me tell you, I don't buy it!"

Kuroba Kaito straightened his body and continued, "This is just the most basic magic trick!"

Hearing this, a glimmer of hope suddenly flashed in the eyes of the originally depressed butler. He crawled to Kuroba Kaito with difficulty and asked in a trembling voice: "You...you are...Master Touichi?"

As if he had found a life-saving straw, he slowly crawled to Kuroba Kaito's feet and said in a crying voice:

"So you are really still alive!"

"Ah, what?" How could anyone know my dad's name?

Kuroba Kaito looked at the old man who was almost crying on the ground, and wondered why this old man looked familiar.

The butler saw that Kuroba Kaito didn't say anything. He still thought it was Kuroba Touichi, "Master, it's me. I'm your former follower Terai. Master, have you forgotten me?"

Grandpa Terai's eyes were filled with tears and were about to burst into tears. Only then did Kuroba Kaito realize who the person in front of him was. It was his father Terai.

After the two of them talked, Kuroba Kaito learned that his father, Kuroba Touichi, had been murdered. Finally, he asked in a very slow tone:

"Father Terai, tell me, is my father a thief? Is he the Kaito Kidd?"

Father Terai closed his eyes, bowed his head and admitted, "Yes, Master Kaito."

When Jiangchuan heard the noise coming from the stairs, he realized that Officer Nakamori had discovered Kaito Kid on the rooftop. Soon the vibration sound of the helicopter was approaching rapidly, and he immediately came out from the stairs.

"What a wonderful show, it's really a good magic trick." Jiang Chuan Shang said in a hoarse voice, speaking like a villain as usual.

"Who?" Kuroba Kaito and Father Terai turned around at the same time and saw an ordinary-looking, thin man standing at the stairs, looking at them.

The sound of the helicopter was getting closer and closer behind them.

"Are you from the police?" Father Terai stood up from the ground, "Master, the helicopter will be here soon, hurry up!"

Jiang Chuan Shang shook his head, denying what Father Terai said, with a strange tone, "No, how could I be a police officer? I'm just an ordinary person. However, I know a lot about Kuroba Touichi!"

"Damn it, then you are the one who killed my father!" When Kuroba Kaito heard Ekawakami mention his father's name, he immediately lost his composure and clenched his fists.

Finally, a group of people ran up from the stairs behind Jiangchuan. They were Officer Nakamori and his gang.

"Kaito Kidd, where are you running?!" Seeing someone standing in front of him, he didn't think much and just stared at "Kaito Kidd" in a white suit in front of him.

Seeing so many people, Jiangchuankami stopped talking, made way for Officer Nakamori, and immediately disappeared.

Kuroba Kaito was surprised that this strange man disappeared so quickly. He still had many questions to ask. With hatred in his heart, he looked at Officer Nakamori who was chasing after him and immediately took off his cloak.

"Dad, run, I'll cover you."

"Master, run quickly, I'll just follow behind you."

"Oh, stop talking nonsense, I have my own way." After saying this, Kuroba Kaito ran to the other side, followed by a group of policemen.

When he reached the edge of the rooftop, Kuroba Kaito jumped down and controlled the paraglider to disappear into the night.

"Oh, it was such a thrilling and interesting night."

"Being a Kaito Kidd doesn't seem like a bad idea."

Passing by a rooftop, Kuroba Kaito saw the strange man from before, Jiang Kawakami, standing there and waving at him.

Kuroba Kaito's mood immediately turned bad, and he turned the paraglider around and flew to the other side.

After he left, Jiang Chuan Shang looked to the other side. There was a man standing there. In the night, Jiang Chuan Shang could still see his attire clearly.

It was a magician's dress of the same style as Kuroba Kaito's, but a different color. His tall figure completely supported the dress, unlike the thin body of a teenager like Kuroba Kaito.

He realized who it was, and the corners of his mouth curled up. He waved at him and spoke with his mouth, not caring whether the man could see it or not.

"Nice to meet you, Kuroba Touichi."

After saying that, Jiang Chuan Shang stepped into the air from the edge of the rooftop, walked forward very steadily and casually, and gradually his figure disappeared.

As Hei Yudao watched him leave, he touched his chin and was very sure that the man in front of him was walking in the air without the help of anything.

"Interesting, is it magic?"
