magician under the moon

"I heard... Thank you so much, Uncle Nakamori." A smile appeared on his exhausted face.

'Unfortunately, not now, at least when the bullet is taken out, otherwise even if you don't arrest me, my identity will be exposed... Fortunately, I have prepared in advance, otherwise I will not be able to escape go out. ......Today, I was so unlucky that I fell into a coma during the flight. Fortunately, I woke up when I was about to land, and opened the inflatable doll under it in time, otherwise I would really be smashed to pieces. '

(For the method of escape, refer to the part about escaping from Conan in Silver Wing Magician)

At twelve o'clock in the middle of the night, there were few pedestrians on the road, but a young man wearing a high school uniform and hobbling along the wall was still quite eye-catching.What's more, although the clothes are dark, nothing can be seen.But behind him, and the suspicious liquid that keeps dripping, still make people think about it.

"Mom, what's wrong with this big brother, is he uncomfortable?"

"He looks like he's bleeding!"

"Young man, are you okay? Do you want to go to the hospital? Well, I'll call an ambulance!"

"Thank you, I'm fine!" Kaito was extremely depressed, without raising his head, he wanted to bypass the black shadow in front of him.

However, once a person becomes enthusiastic at an inopportune time, it becomes extremely difficult.

"How can it be all right? You can't even walk, look, here, my God, it's all blood! No, I'll call an ambulance right away!"

"No!" He snatched the phone that had been dialed and hung up.

"This is you, young man, you can't be brave at this time!"

Falling into dizziness again, he quickly bit his lips and told himself to hold on.Trying to move his feet and hide in the alley not far away, the old man in front of him just made up his mind and blocked the way.It's fine in normal times, but for Kaito now, this is an insurmountable obstacle.

Seeing the scattered people around him start to gather here, Kaito became even more anxious, but the more eager he was to get away, the more his wounds became louder and he couldn't move.

"If you want me not to call, you can tell me a reason."

"Get out of the way... I... don't have time to explain to you..." Even Kuroba Kaito, at this moment, was about to lose his gentlemanly poker face.

Fortunately, on the big screen in the commercial street, the continuous reports were heard by the old man intermittently, and he answered on his behalf.

"I just heard a policeman say that Kaito Kidd is wearing a high school uniform?"

"I heard that his legs and upper body were severely injured, is that true?" "Do you think Kidd escaped with a hang glider?"

There were a few gasps from around, which couldn't be more obvious. Judging from the man's clothes and injuries, as well as his attitude of refusing to go to the hospital just now, they had already guessed the man's true identity.

"You, are you!"

"Yes......"

There was another gasp, and the people around were stunned.

Knowing that his physical condition does not allow him to stop any longer, he quietly glanced around, but fortunately only four people stopped, so Kaito decided to adopt the simplest strategy.

"I'm Phantom Thief Kid... When I was on the move today...some accident happened...I can't go to the hospital...but my subordinates will come to pick me up...I have to hide..."

Fortunately, I had been bent over to support the wall, and it was night at this time, although there was no disguise, in fact no one could see Kaito's face clearly.

"This, this!" A young girl next to her came up, she recovered from the shock, and lowered her voice, "Where are you hiding? How about..."

"I'm hiding in the alley... that's fine, you just pretend... you haven't seen anything... is that okay?"

"what?"

"This!"

"Don't worry, we won't say anything!" After a little hesitation, the four of them gave an affirmative answer.

Satisfied to see the four people nodding their vows, Kaito was slightly relieved, although there was no reason to believe them, but there was no better way.

"Thank you!"

No longer entangled with a few people, Kaidou turned into the alley next to him.Under the surprised eyes of several people, it gradually disappeared into the darkness.

Once you find a cover, sit down.Even though the wound on his body was clamoring for pain, the phone in his hand played a series of familiar numbers.

"Dudu..."

"Hello... who is it?" A lazy female voice was obviously awakened from sleep.

Kuai Dou calmly let out a breath, and finally let go of his hanging heart. "Sure enough, it was the woman who feinted, and I said why she suddenly talked more. '

"Who? Why didn't you talk in the middle of the night?"

"It's me, Qingzi."

"Kai Dou? What's the matter with you?" The weak voice made Qingzi clear his mind a lot.

"Nothing? I just want to hear your voice suddenly."

"Ah?" Qingzi only felt his face burn up all of a sudden, "Why are you so nervous in the middle of the night? When can't I hear my voice?"

"......."

"Why don't you speak?... Kaito... Kaito?"

"Ah?" Aoko's voice brought back the sanity that Kaito was about to lose.

"What's wrong, you don't seem to be right?"

"You're thinking too much...I'm just, too excited for the show.....can't sleep"

"Hehe, no way, you are so excited about such a small performance, what kind of magician do you want to be?"

"Go to sleep... I won't bother you anymore."

"I can't stand you, I hang up."

"Qingzi!"

"what?"

"Nothing, goodbye, Qingzi."

"Well, bye." Kaito let out a long sigh of relief, 'I have to get Terai over quickly... Otherwise, I'm really going to die today. '

With trembling fingers, he began to slowly enter another string of numbers.

At this moment, a black figure suddenly appeared in front of Kaito like a ghost in the night, because of the darkness and dizziness, he couldn't see his face clearly.But a needle is dazzling.

"What are you doing...?" The stabbing pain in the neck was far less than the wound, but Kaito fell into a complete coma.

================================================== ==================

"Thank you, kid, just come here!"

"Well, then I'm leaving, Uncle Policeman."

Yesterday, for many people who regard Kidd as an enemy or opponent, it can be called a sleepless night.The police conducted an overnight search within a radius of several kilometers, but it was a pity that the Kaitou Kidd disappeared without a trace as if he had evaporated from the world.The relevant persons involved in the case were taken to the police station for questioning, but until the sun rose again in the morning, there were still very few really effective clues. In contrast, the curiosity of the media and the public was unprecedented. soaring.Because of this, the entire Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department in the center of the vortex is shrouded in a strong low pressure

Conan, who just finished recording the transcript, can also describe his mood at this time as bored.Everything that happened last night, like the film of a movie, is constantly replaying in my mind.Lowering his head, he glanced at the blood stains on his chest that had not been cleaned up, and his face became more solemn.

'I actually made such a low-level mistake....I should have reacted at that time, if the opponent was an organization...the only exit should be ambushed... ...But I was so aggressive that I nearly...'

When he was about to be shot again, the figure that flew towards him with an anxious expression appeared in his mind. Conan frowned and subconsciously bit his lip.

'If I'm not mistaken, the person who rescued me should be the boy who was lying on the ground and was seriously injured......If that's the case, the situation is really bad...... Originally A lot of blood was shed, and the vital parts were hit...and he had to escape from the police search...Whether that person was Kidd himself or not, I'm afraid It’s all bad luck...and, although Officer Nakamori said he would not go to the hospital to arrest him...he probably won’t...'

"Hey, Conan, why are you here!" A familiar voice interrupted Conan's thinking.

"Officer Takagi, Officer Sato, why are you here?"

"Oh, we were just transferred here to investigate Kidd's affairs." Takagi replied

"Isn't Officer Kidd responsible for this?"

"It's different now. What happened last night became a big deal, and the whole of Japan is watching eagerly. If you can't draw some conclusions, it will be difficult for the superiors. In addition, this time there is a guy who wants Kidd's life." , so we have now joined the first search department."

"Did you find Kidd?" Conan's tone was very anxious.

But the answer was disappointing, "No, I even checked all the hospitals, but there was no clue. I interrogated two people just now, thinking that I could find something, but they refused to say anything. After several hours of questioning, they didn't say a word. .Really, I wonder if they are dumb"

"Two people? Who?"

"Last night, someone reported that Kaito Kidd was found." Officer Sato replied in time, "The police rushed to the scene of the incident and found two people lying on the side of the road. One of them was wearing Kidd's costume, The other was dressed in black, as if he had been dazed."

"Kidd's costume, all in black...?" Conan's mind had some sporadic thoughts, but it was still chaotic and unable to sort out.

"Other than that, are there any other characteristics? Oh, I want to tell Uncle Maori these, let him think about whether he can draw some conclusions, so that you can find Kidd earlier."

"Well...Conan, I can tell you, but you have to make sure you don't spread it!" Officer Takagi bent down and lowered his voice, "You may not believe it when I say it. Those two guys actually carry With three pistols, a long-range rifle, night-vision goggles, bugs, GPS, and a bunch of high-tech equipment anyway, it's pretty spectacular, I'm so I haven't seen the police for many years..."

The idea that suddenly appeared in his mind made Conan suddenly feel a tingling sensation in his scalp, 'Wait a minute, could those two people be...!'

The voice of Police Officer Takagi continued, "Our police suspected that they were Kidd's assistants, so we interrogated them. But I think something is wrong. Kidd's assistants should not use such equipment, right? It is more likely to say that it is a terrorist... But how could a terrorist be lying on the side of the road in a daze, really... Hey, why are there so many strange things? !"

"Where were those two people found?"

"Oh, it seems to be in the area between Jiangpu Road and Zhongxin Road."

"Will they be released? If so, when?"

"Well, it's more difficult to say. The police don't have sufficient evidence, so they can't lock people up casually. But because they carry illegal weapons, they will be in the police station until the matter is clear. Then, if If it is proved that the guns belonged to them, it is also possible to be sentenced.”

"Well, I see, thank you, I'm going back, I will tell Uncle Maori these things, and see if his reasoning can help you."

"Well, okay, sorry for the trouble, Conan!"

As soon as he turned around, the childlike smile on Conan's face disappeared immediately, replaced by an extremely serious but slightly excited expression.

'Judgment based on Belmode and his men that I saw last night when I was tracking Kidd.Those two guys who were regarded by the police as Kidd's accomplices should be members of the black organization that made me smaller!It is obvious that Kidd and the organization are in a state of hostility, and if my reasoning is correct, those two people should have been stunned by Kidd or Kidd's men on the way to follow Kidd, and then came to the police station! '

'What a windfall!Although the police don't know their identities, they won't let them leave easily...... Maybe they can find a breakthrough from these two people!It seems that I have to tell the FBI about this matter and let them handle it! ...And what I should do now is to find Kaitou Kidd before the Black Organization, otherwise, even if he is alive, I am afraid he will still be in danger...'

After making up his mind, Conan took out his mobile phone and dialed a series of numbers.

"Hi, it's me, Doctor."

"Shinichi? I was looking for you, Kidd yesterday..."

"I'll explain this to you when I come back. Doctor, do me a favor and find out which high schools are near Jiangpu Road and Zhongxin Road, and which of these high schools had activities last night."

"Xinyi, why are you checking these?"

"I doubt Kaito Kidd's true identity. He is a high school student like me, and he is probably in a high school that meets the two conditions I just mentioned!"

"Ah, what does this mean?"

"Doctor, I don't have time to explain now, just check it out for me!"

"Oh, okay, Shinichi, wait a minute, I'll check right away!"

"Well, thank you, please!"

Putting down the phone, the information conveyed by Conan's gaze became a bit elusive, with the lingering worry and anxiety, but also vague excitement and expectation.

'Kidd, I finally understand why you specially sent me the notice letter, and why you wrote that line (the one when you stole the 'wings')...'The enemy of the enemy is a friend ? 'The answer will be revealed when I see you.Before that, please don't have an accident, wait for me, Kidd! '
