Ranbu took the photo of the suitcase taken by Zhenzhi. Although he didn't wear the usual glasses, his expression was very serious at this time, as if he saw some unsolvable problem.

Kunikida was also infected by this serious atmosphere and held his breath.

For a moment, the only sound in the entire detective agency was the sound of the TV broadcasting the evening news, and the screen was showing blurred images due to the shooting at night.

"Recently, Phantom Thief Kidd once again issued a notice in advance, claiming that his goal this time is to store rubies in the art museum, which are currently on display."

"Currently, the art museum has made it clear that the ruby ​​has been stolen. I hope that the general public can actively provide relevant clues about Kaito Kidd and assist the police in solving this incident..."

Phantom Thief Kidd?

Zhenzhi, who was quietly waiting for Ranbu's reply, gave a little attention to this repeatedly broadcast news.

Quite coincidentally, the night Kaito Kidd shows up coincides with his return from the parallel world.

Zhenzhi, who was a little chaotic in his brain, hadn't fully figured out the connection between the two, and Ranbu who was sitting across from him had already put down the photo.

"Master Ranpo accepted this commission on behalf of the detective agency, but you don't need any payment. Your things will come back by themselves before this morning."

"After all, this isn't some nasty theft, it's just an unlucky oolong. If I'm not mistaken, there should be a ruby ​​in the interlayer of the box."

Zhenzhi, who had already fully figured out the joints of the matter under Ranbu's suggestion, shook his head slightly when he heard the last line of reasoning.

"You're wrong about that, detective."

"Although I don't know why the box of Mr. Phantom Thief is exactly the same as mine, but when I checked the box, the interlayer was empty."

"Huh? Then something unexpected happened. But compared to this, you'd better go downstairs quickly."

Ranbu, who was chewing the newly opened potato chips, made an indistinct questioning sound, and pointed in the direction of the window with his finger.

"Someone is coming to pick you up. And you should not think about other things for the time being in such a bad situation, and leave the problem to other people."

Who is coming to pick you up?

Zhenzhi got up from the sofa, looked down from the window of the Armed Detective Agency in the direction Ranpo pointed, and saw a person who should not be here, somewhat unexpectedly.

I met him at a bar not long ago. Dazai, who was silently alienated by Zhenzhi because of his experience in the parallel world, has been standing downstairs for an unknown amount of time. From upstairs, only the top of his black head can be seen.

Noticing the movement at the window, Dazai, who was thinking about something with his head down, raised his head, showed the same smile as usual, and shook the suitcase in his hand.

I don't know if it's an illusion of true knowledge, but Dazai's expression at this moment has a slight resemblance to him in that parallel world.

But this illusion is fleeting, and when you look closely, the similarity has disappeared.

"I'm here to find you."

Dazai's mouth said so.

Kaito Kuroba has entered the Mercury retrograde period these days.

The word "everything is not going well" is the best portrayal of his life after he pretended to travel to Yokohama, but actually planned to sell the ruby ​​on display.

As the Kaitou Kidd, he was also a person who wandered through various major events and never overturned. He was full of confidence in this trip to Yokohama, but he didn't expect that the city of Yokohama was really at odds with him.

Although I have heard of this area of ​​Yokohama for a long time, there are many people with incredible so-called abilities, but it is unlucky to bump into him when I come to Yokohama.

His target this time, the ruby ​​was named "Ai Zhe Red Stone" by the owner, and it was an incredible ruby ​​that was unearthed from a ruin somewhere abroad not long ago.

Because this kind of gemstone can reflect the received energy multiple times inside the gemstone and concentrate it on one point, even a small inadvertent ray of light can cause great harm to people.

For Kaito Kuroba, the most difficult thing is not how to get this ruby, but how to preserve it and prevent any light from shining in the subsequent process of avoiding pursuit.

What he didn't expect was that there would be someone who had a suitcase that was exactly the same shape as the suitcase he carefully selected!

Of course, what was even more unexpected was that in order to hunt him down, the Yokohama officials had prepared more than one person with special abilities to restrain his weird running methods.

Kaito, who couldn't use the hang glider due to the effect of the supernatural power, was forced to make an emergency landing near the five iconic buildings in Yokohama, and got mixed into the crowd who didn't know why at the time.

Those superhumans who were desperately chasing Kaito and basically determined his escape direction suddenly changed their expressions when they saw the group of people in black suits, turned around and fled out of the vigilant range of the group Peeping in the dark.

Kaito Kuroba, who mingled into the crowd after changing his appearance, knew that at this moment, he confirmed that these people were probably members of the world's leading organization, the Port Mafia in Yokohama.

Kaito originally planned to sneak into the building first, and then find a chance to slip away after getting rid of the pursuers, but the plan can never keep up with the change.

— the box in his hand fell to the floor because of the overcrowding.

No matter how you say it, Kaito Kuroba is just a high school student with an average physique, so naturally he can't squeeze out this group of muscular burly guys.

After finally waiting for the crowd to pass by, Kaito picked up the box from the ground and ran away, only thinking about escaping from this ghostly place quickly, ignoring the slight change in the weight of the box.

When he returned to the hotel where he was staying, after solving all the monitoring in the room and preparing to appreciate this legendary fantasy gem, he found a big problem.

What was contained in the box was not the ruby, but a pile of yellowed documents with unclear contents.

Kaito finally recalled the glimpse in the chaotic crowd, surrounded by the group of port mafia, the unknown brother who fainted, seemed to be holding a similar box tightly in his hand.

Thinking of this, Kuai Dou fiercely closed the box, and mourned in silence for his troubles today.

What's going on!

……

Kaito in disguise carried a remodeled and decorated box, and appeared near the Hongkong Building in the evening, nonchalantly observing the ordinary citizens and members of the Hong Kong gangsters coming in and out.

He vaguely remembered that the crowd at that time seemed to be discussing that the unconscious cadre seemed to be in a very bad situation, and he shouldn't wake up for a while.

Hopefully he can replace the case before the person wakes up, as if this never happened.

Just as Kaito saw the opening of the port mafia patrol, and was about to sneak in to find the ward in his memory, someone suddenly patted him on the shoulder from behind.

"Then start asking questions—"

The white-haired, golden-eyed clown, who was a bit of a gaudy clown, happily turned half a circle on the spot after Kaito turned around.

"What I'm going to show next, is it magic or supernatural power?"

After asking the question, the weird clown who suddenly appeared snapped his fingers, and took out a delicate red rose from his coat, and the one placed among the layers of petals of the red rose was Kaito's target Aizhe Redstone.

"It's magic."

Kaito is very wary of this strange stranger.But as a magician, he could easily see that the clown in front of him was only using ordinary tricks, not the kind of supernatural power that caused him to suffer a great crime before.

"Correct! Then as a reward for the correct answer, this gem will be given to you."

After hearing the answer, the clown showed a very excited expression, and handed the rose studded with gemstones to Kaito, noticing that the two people walking side by side from far to near in the distance showed a sly smile.

"So now I have returned the wrong thing. In order to prevent being discovered, I will take a step first."

With the colorful pieces of paper swaying down, the clown who came and went in a hurry disappeared in place, leaving only Kaito who was not very clear about the current situation.

Why did the things in the wrong box appear in the hands of this clown?

Puzzled by Kaito, he put away the gems inlaid in the roses, and prepared to continue sneaking into the port mafia building to send the box back.

It's just history repeating itself.

Just as he found the gap and was about to rush in, someone patted him on the shoulder lightly.

"Excuse me, I would like to ask."

The young male voice from behind was gentle and peaceful, Kaito restrained his face, turned his head with the blank expression of an innocent passerby when he was suddenly stopped, and stood behind him and patted him on the shoulder, with soft black hair and The young man with blue eyes met his gaze.

...Wait, it seems a little familiar.

"I seem to be the owner of the box in your hand. If possible, please hand over the box to me directly."

Machi pointed to the box in Kaito's hand that was so decorated that it couldn't be seen, and his tone was quite polite.

Dazai, who had identified the target in just a few hours and went to the Armed Detective Agency to find someone, was standing two steps away, with a faint smile on his lips, and interjected.

"After all, Mr. Phantom Thief doesn't want to make things big, right? After all, we still need to go to Tokyo for a short-term trip together in a hurry, so we can't waste too much time here."

"..."

He's threatening, he's threatening!

And the person who just patted him on the shoulder with a sick look on his face was the cadre who passed out that night? !

Didn't that group of people say that this cadre is in danger? Why did he get out of the hospital bed and run around in just two days?

Although his heart was full of roars, Kaito, who had already taken back his target ruby, had no reason not to return it to the original owner, and handed the box to Machi quite readily, escaping as fast as he wanted.

Makoto, who has already learned the truth, has no intention of embarrassing Kaito.Compared with Mr. Phantom Thief, what he cared more about was the clown who just saw the ruby ​​for a short while and handed it to Kaito.

It seems to be Gogol.

Temporarily suppressing the speculation in his heart, Zhenzhi asked Dazai who was talking nonsense with some helplessness.

"Short-term travel? Didn't you say that Chief Sen gave you a business trip?"

"Although it is indeed a business trip, sister Hongye gave me this before departure."

Dazai waved the hot spring coupon that he took out of his pocket.

"Mr. Zhenzhi promised me to go together."

The author has something to say:

Don't care about the name Ai Zhe Hongshi hhhh

If it weren't for Douzi's own incident, what the civet cat would have gotten would not be rubies, but truth-knowledge information
