"Master Jingwu, the police from the Tokyo Police Department outside the door want to see you." The butler walked to Atobe and said in a low voice.

Atobu frowned, seemed a little confused, but still waved his hand and said, "Let them in." Yukimura, who was sitting on his left, heard a flash of spirituality in his mind, and a somewhat unbelievable idea suddenly appeared, so He picked up the cup enthusiastically, waiting for verification.

Atobe house outside

"Is this the luxurious mansion called Atobe Buckingham Palace? As shown in the information, Kidd called it the golden castle, which is considered realistic." Officer Takagi sighed from the bottom of his heart.

Officer Sato had a headache: "It's even more difficult to guard against such a large area. Especially now that time is running out, I'm afraid it will be a big project."

"That's true." Takagi touched his head in embarrassment, then pulled out the small manual he carried with him and added, "According to the information collected by Shiratori, the Atobe family bought a gift from the Queen of Romania at an auction a few years ago. A shell-shaped brooch from the Duke of Russia was presented as a 15th birthday present by the heir, Keigo Atobu, and this should be Kidd’s target this time.”

"Thanks to the clues provided by Kudo, I hope we can successfully persuade the heir to hand over the brooch to the police for protection." Sato said seriously.

At this time the gate opened, and the two were finally able to enter the magnificent mansion.

"Excuse me, Atobe-kun, I'm Miwako Sato from the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department, and this is my colleague Takagi Wataru, this time we are here mainly for a treasure in your collection, is it convenient for private communication?" Sato said competently His aura and decent conversation undoubtedly won him a good impression.

Atobe glanced around and said lightly: "No need, you came at such a rude time, I think we can solve it quickly, just here, it doesn't take too much time."

Sato ate a soft nail, the expression on his face remained unchanged, but his evaluation of the young heir of the Atobe family changed several times in his heart.

But I didn't expect that Atobu immediately ordered two more sets of tableware, and motioned for the two detectives to sit down: "The two of you probably haven't had dinner yet, let's talk while eating. There is nothing that I can't discuss outside matter."

Sato's mood went up and down like a roller coaster ride, but the single-cell police officer Takagi didn't think too much about it. Seeing that the guests he was working on were about the same age as Atobe, he guessed that they were all classmates of Atobe, and maybe it was from which company. The young master of the consortium.

In this way, there is indeed nothing taboo about the topics they want to talk about.

However, at this moment Takagi noticed Yukimura sitting opposite him, and his surprise was beyond words. "Yukimura-kun, I didn't expect to see you here." Since there were acquaintances present, it was much easier to start the conversation.

Yukimura greeted Officer Takagi politely, and then turned his head to explain to Atobe, who had a curious face but remained motionless: "I encountered an incident by chance before, and Officer Takagi was in charge of handling the case at that time."

Thinking of Yukimura's excellent reasoning at the scene of the crime, Takagi became a little more sure about what he was going to talk about next.

"Atobe-kun, do you know Kaitou Kid?" Takagi first asked a question.A trace of confusion flashed in Atobe's eyes, as if he had never heard this person's name before.

But there were obviously people who knew the situation.

"Phantom Thief Kidd, a legend that caused a sensation in the world 18 years ago, stopped committing crimes 8 years ago, and suddenly became active again in Japan in the past year. I just enjoy stealing, and most of the stolen jewels will be returned to their original owners." Liu, who closed her eyes, put down the tableware and said calmly.

"That's right." Sato looked at Liu in surprise, and continued following his words, "A few days ago, he sent a notice letter to the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department. At first we inferred that his next target was the Suzuki Consortium. , but according to the second notice letter, we re-reasoned and agreed that his real target should be a brooch in the collection of the Atobe family."

Said that Sato put the two notice letters on the table.

At this time, the eyes of the rest of the people were attracted, and they began to think about the two notice letters.

Yagyu straightened his glasses and said first, "If the police's deduction is correct, the Golden Castle should refer to the Atobe family's mansion, which is the location, and the rest of the sentence should imply the time."

"The starlight on the king's crown?" Ren Zuzu thought for a moment and looked at Atobe, "I remember you received a brooch on your 15th birthday. The shell shape is very gorgeous. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a shrunken crown."

"Isn't Atobe's nickname the king? Castle, crown, these key words are really accurate." Xiang Ri touched his chin and sighed, "It's really good that Atobe, even a phantom thief who is interested in your treasures It's world class."

Yukimura, who was listening on the side, couldn't help but nodded. Sure enough, when he heard these keywords, the first thing he thought of was Atobe himself. Now it seems that it is not whimsical.

"Indeed, my mother once gave me a brooch made of gold and various gemstones as my birthday present. The pearl-shaped gemstones on the top of the brooch will change color with the light, and the night is full of stars." Atobe nodded. "I don't think you have the wrong person."

Kazuki Takagi continued: "Considering Kidd's endless means, the Metropolitan Police Department will send the most elite personnel to take charge of this case, but considering the difficulty of security, we recommend that you hand over the brooch to us for safekeeping in advance, so that once If Kidd came to Atobe House according to the original plan, he would definitely miss his target."

Takagi was able to convince Atobe with every chance, but the 17-year-old boy obviously has the maturity and resourcefulness beyond his age. He directly retorted: "Would a world-famous phantom thief act blindly without knowing the location of the target?"

Atobe smiled, and stroked the mole on his face with his right hand: "What's more, I don't think the police station can provide better security than Atobe's house."

Sato quickly explained: "Actually, Mr. Suzuki Jiroji also trusts the security of his own home, but every time he is mixed into the security team by Kidmon, his disguise technique is too good, I think it is very difficult to rely on conventional measures. It is inevitable that it will be stolen.”

"Disguise?" Atobe suddenly laughed out loud as if hearing something interesting, "No matter how clever the disguise is, it is impossible to escape the insight of my uncle."

Seeing that Atobe was so stubborn, Sato felt a little headache, she just felt that Atobe was a young master who didn't know the world, and didn't understand Kidd's brilliance.

"Actually, I think so too." Yukimura, who had been silent all this time, suddenly opened his mouth and stood on the side of Atobe in a clear-cut manner, which made Takagi somewhat unexpected.

But Yukimura just said firmly: "Atobe's insight can see through all flaws and blind spots. This is his talent. As for the disguise technique..." Yukimura supported the table with one hand, and pointed to the end of the seat with the other, "We also have a proficient here Yi Rong is a talented fraudster, I think he should be able to compete head-on with Kidd."

Nioh was still eating on his own with a disinterested look, but when he heard Yukimura's words, his ears perked up instantly, and his eyes lit up: "I'm curious as to whose disguise is more perfect than Kaitou Kidd. .”

"Niou on the court can even copy the opponent's unique moves, and he can be better than him..." Liu Huamei finished, but the meaning at the moment is self-evident.

"Also, even if Kidd can be mixed into the security team, if the security team is composed of all Li Haida and Ice Emperor Zhengxuan, he can pretend to be our appearance, but can he hit a 240-per-hour serve? Do you perform stunts without obstacles? Even imitate the superb swordsmanship of the kendo family?" Xingmura's words made everyone in the audience stunned for a while, but somehow felt that it made sense.

——The phantom thief who was originally just a member of the Kanban branch, under the command of Yukimura without a trace, suddenly everyone silently joined the anti-theft alliance.

"The most important thing is, I'm curious whether the elimination of the five senses and illusory dreams can work on ordinary people other than tennis players." Yukimura smiled warmly, but everyone present shuddered subconsciously for some reason.

"Deputy Minister, can the Minister's five senses be eliminated without using tennis balls?" Kirihara asked Sanada carefully and softly beside him.

Sanada lowered the brim of his hat with a solemn expression: "I'm afraid it is."

"...I suddenly felt sorry for that strange thief." Xiao Haidai trembled.

"Me too." Marui agreed.

"Me too." Kuwahara followed suit and raised his hand.

Only Liu looked puzzled and scribbled in his notes.

Atobe glanced at Yukimura somewhat unexpectedly, although he didn't know why he was so interested in Kidd, and even made such a radical statement contrary to his usual gentle and restrained personality, but Atobe intuitively felt that this would not do him any harm.

To him, the loss of a brooch is nothing.Wouldn't it be more interesting to witness the scene depicted by Yukimura than wealth?

The owner Atobe clapped his hands and decisively agreed with Yukimura's proposal.The unknown Sato and Takagi didn't understand Yukimura's meaning, just thought he underestimated the strength of the Kaitou, and hurriedly dissuaded him: "Kaitou Kidd is not as easy to deal with as you imagined, besides the disguise technique, he also has a lot of skills And every time he brings a lot of equipment to help him steal."

"I know." Although Atobe is arrogant, he never underestimates his opponents. A monster who can fool the police all over the world is not easy to deal with. He has some thoughts in his mind, "Officer Sato, I agree with Tokyo The police from the Metropolitan Police Department will be stationed in the house to take charge of the security work, but the most core security measures will be arranged by me personally."

"This..." Takagi wanted to fight again, but Sato had already seen Atobe's determination, and his words would not be easily swayed. It seemed that it was time for them to prepare PlanB.

into the night.

After seeing off the police and Rikkai's main election, Atobe opened the vault to check the safety of the gems.

"Don't worry, this vault was designed by the world's top experts. The triple protection is unbreakable. Even the Kaitou Kidd can't easily steal the gems." The butler said respectfully standing beside Atobe.

Atobe inspected the gemstone in front of him, and said seriously: "I don't doubt my decision. This vault was inspected by me personally. Needless to say, it's safe...I'm just wondering why I've never heard of any strange robbers. Kidd's presence."

"It's just an insignificant person. It's not surprising that you haven't heard of it." The housekeeper laughed.

Atobe shook his head, with an inexplicable expression: "No, my uncle's aesthetics will never allow any mistakes. If this strange thief started 18 years ago, I can't be ignorant." He looked around, only Seeing all kinds of jewelry boxes on the wall, he said, "Hmph, who can be more suitable for the goal of such a legendary jewelry thief than the Atobe family?"

What a coincidence, that Kaito Kidd missed such a perfect match for 18 years?
