magician under the moon

The old pendulum in the old house of "Dangdang" rang No.12.

"Unexpectedly, when you stole hope, you met GIN and the others..." After listening to the whole narration, Conan's eyes had already been set on a straight line of nothingness, making it impossible to guess his true identity at this time. State of mind "You know what, they're the ones who made me smaller... It's a good thing you're pretending to be killed, otherwise you'd be in big trouble."

"So that's the case, it's the same as my inference, the reason why you became smaller is indeed thanks to them." Kaito's expression is a rare seriousness "They are definitely not just an ordinary theft organization, That's right, the person who can drive father to death cannot be an ordinary person."

"More precisely, a group of criminals with extremely high IQ and brutal nature."

"That's right, let's not mention anything else, just from last night, whether it is the ability of individual combat, the equipment of weapons, or the ability to cooperate in groups. They are all comparable to professional special forces."

"After talking for a long time, I haven't thanked you yet. If it wasn't for you..."

"It's me who should thank you. To be honest, if it weren't for you, I would have been beaten to death by those men in black." Conan hesitated for a moment, but still told the truth "...Actually, there are no bullets in Belmore's gun."

"Huh?" It was Kaito's turn to look surprised this time.

"When the police cleaned up the scene afterwards, they checked the gun. Although the structure was the same as the real gun, it contained anesthesia. She didn't seem to have any intention of killing you."

"Ah! What, if this is the case, I would have said it earlier, and I was shocked. This woman is really good-looking. Why does she like to run out and scare people when she has nothing to do?"

"..."

"Why are you looking at me with this expression?" One hand squeezed his face, and he blinked, "Am I really so handsome? You can't take your eyes off me!  … It's a pity that I'm not interested in men, otherwise, maybe you two still have a chance."

"...!!!"

"Just kidding, kidding, you detectives just have no sense of humor!"

"Hehe...hehe..."

Hattori Conan's face was full of black lines, but Haibara smiled and joked, "Are you really Kidd? I have some doubts."

"Doubt? Why, because have you never seen such a handsome thief?"

"No, it just feels different from the Kidd in my impression."

"Oh? Why is it different?"

"It doesn't seem so annoying. It seems more annoying."

"I don't know if you're praising me or flattering me." Kaito gave a bad smile, "But this is me. Just like you, when I'm not a phantom thief, I'm just an ordinary high school student."

"So, we have one more thing in common." Conan calmly spoke again, as if he had gotten used to Kidd's unique humor in front of him.

"So much like a detective, I really don't know if it's a blessing or a curse." Kaito had a mischievous expression on his face, as if he completely forgot about his injury.

"It seems that I should be the one to say this. However, from now on, the relationship between you and me is no longer just that of a detective and a thief. Since your father, Black Feather Pirate One, was killed by the organization, then you are also my enemy's enemy."

"I said, you detectives just like to chew on words..."

Eyes as black and wet as night fog stared straight at the other party, flashing with an indescribable emotion

"Isn't an enemy's enemy a friend?"

The moon revealed a ray of light from the edge of the clouds, casting curious eyes into the slightly dim interior through the glass inlaid on the wooden window frame.

Because, the former enemies, here, smiled at each other.

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

"What did you say! Suicide, you mean those two people who followed me?"

"Yes, in fact, we just came back from the Metropolitan Police Department...Actually, I wanted to investigate the matter immediately. But we were in a hurry to find you, so we had to give up. Because we were worried about the organization's next The target is you."

Kaito sighed, leaned his head back against the wall, and said nothing more.With tightly closed eyes and slightly trembling body, one can clearly feel that there is no trace of peace in his heart at this moment.

"Kaito, this..."

"I didn't expect... I actually killed them..."

"Don't say that, I can't blame you... If you have to blame... the murderer is the black organization that those two people are loyal to!"

"I know, but I don't understand why they did this? Didn't you just say that the Japanese police didn't know their identities, they just thought they were my assistants...they didn't need to be so eager to die , Isn’t it?” The conversation between myself and Belmode at the pier flashed in my mind, “Could it be that someone, I mean Belmode, hinted at or forced them. ...."

"It is very likely that there is an external force involved. Otherwise, if they are only afraid of their identities being leaked, they should have committed suicide after they found out that they were taken to the police station, and they would not have waited so long..."

"However, what is the reason for Belmode to imply or force them to commit suicide?"

"I'm afraid they are worried that the organization's secrets will be leaked." Hui Yuanai interjected in a timely manner, "This is their usual method. Anyone who knows the inside information of the organization must strictly keep the secret. Once the organization's situation may be due to someone outside Even if this situation is only at the stage of speculation, the organization will not allow such a risk factor to exist."

"...that's really ruthless....I thought Belmode was just talking..." Kaito paused, trying to sort out his thoughts, but, in his mind, It's like a well-designed maze, which makes people confused and can't find the exit. "...However, the suspect committed suicide during the interrogation, and he is also a suspect who may be related to me...Don't you think this will cause more speculation and discussion in the society and even the police? "

"You're right, this is what confuses me..." Conan's clear eyes carried a detective's unique persistence and sensitivity, "So I will investigate this matter myself tomorrow, and I believe it will be done by then." There will be results..."

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

"Have you really decided to do this? Doing this, will it be a little... Maybe there are other ways." Hattori was a little unwilling, even though he knew that Kaito's decision might be difficult to change.

"Under the current situation, I have no other choice...especially after knowing that this organization can be so cruel to my companions...I can't do nothing" in a calm tone, With a trace of exhaustion "..... I hope to get your support."

"But...you should know, if Qingzi finds out that it's you..."

"I know, but I have no choice." Turning my gaze to the other person beside me, "I don't want Qingzi to suffer any harm. Even if it means, I will bear everything. Even if it means... I will eventually lose her."

There was a long silence, and the serious expressions were written on the faces of the three people.

"I see."

"Kudou! Do you agree with this plan?"

"I understand this feeling, some people, we have to protect. No matter what way." Conan patted Kaito's shoulder lightly, "We believe in your choice, as friends, this is the only thing we can do of."

Hattori spread his hands helplessly, "You two are really crazy. Forget it, since you all think so, I have nothing to persuade you."

"thanks."

"When are you going to do it?"

"The sooner the better. I'm a little worried about her situation."

"Dinglingling." The phone beside the bed rang untimely. At such a moment and such a place, it's hard for people not to think about the ringtone.

The three exchanged glances. Kaito picked up the receiver.

"Which one?"

"Long time no see, Kuroba Kaito."

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

"Sorry, the number you dialed is out of service area, please try again later."

"It's strange, why is it always not in the service area, where did this guy go?"

It was an afternoon in Jiang Gutian High School, but Qingzi, who was lively and active on weekdays, seemed a little quiet today.

"You've been on the phone all day, oops, didn't Kaito's mother tell you all? Kaito went to Paris to watch a magic show, and even asked for leave for her. Don't worry."

"As the saying goes, if you don't see each other for a day, it's like three autumns. If you don't see each other for one autumn, you'll go crazy thinking about it... Girls in love are like this. Qingzi, I can understand your feelings, really, I want to Back then... (1412 characters omitted)"

"What's more, the other party is still a handsome guy. Oh, to be honest, since I saw him play Kidd that day, I'm almost obsessed with him. So handsome, so handsome, really handsome... "

"Why do you use these two words... It's terrible to be uneducated. You should say that, so handsome, very handsome, super... so handsome, really handsome... ..(1412 characters omitted)”

"By the way, I heard that the real Phantom Thief Kidd was seriously injured. I don't know if something will happen. It's been two days and there is no news at all!"

"Two days? You mean Kidd was injured two days ago." Qingzi who had been silent all this time suddenly said.

"Yes, I was woken up by my parents at 12 o'clock in the middle of the night to watch."

"Twelve o'clock in the evening two days ago... isn't it?"

"I saw your father on TV. Why, don't you know?" In Qingzi's ears, he seemed to recall the phone call he received suddenly that night, Kaito's slightly hoarse voice, and his desire to speak And stop the words.An ominous premonition somehow began to envelope my heart.

"Qingzi, oh, Qingzi... Really, why are you in a daze again..."

"Well, I'm sorry, I have to go first."

"Hey, where are you going? It's your turn to sweep the floor today."

"I know, there is something urgent suddenly, please help me and the teacher take a leave."

"Wait a minute, hello, Qingzi..."

Before the words finished, Qingzi had already left the classroom.

"What, you lazy guy."

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

"No, it's just a coincidence. Kaito just happened to have a whim and called me at that time."

Qingzi, who was walking on the way to Kaidou's house, began to talk to herself non-stop, hoping to use this method to calm herself down, but she soon discovered that this would only make her thoughts more confused.

"Kaito is just a high school student, but he looks a bit like Kidd in white clothes, they have nothing to do with each other, they must be. But, if not, if he said that during the performance.... If Kaito is the real Kid, he's now... oops!"

Qingzi fell to the ground, and when he looked up, he saw two black figures wearing sunglasses.

"I'm sorry, I didn't hit you on purpose."

"It's okay, I know you didn't mean it, Miss Nakamori."

"How do you know my name? What do you want from me... It's strange... What's wrong with your neck?"

A big hand will catch Qingzi who is unconscious and about to fall to the ground.

"I've been waiting for you for a long time, I can trouble you to come with us, Miss Aoko Nakamori."
