The Grammatical Investigator in Conan

Chapter 1263 Nefren Ka’s Rebirth Prophecy

"Kaito..."

When he heard this magnetic male voice, Kuroba Kaito's pupils dilated instantly and he froze in place.

The sound would never feel foreign to him.

Over the past eight years, he has watched the man's magic performance videos countless times, learning magic techniques and performance techniques, so that his voice is deeply imprinted in his mind.

The world-renowned genius magician was both his father and the man he admired throughout his life.

Kuroba Kaito's tense shoulders relaxed visibly, and then he slowly turned around.

He saw Black Feather Thief standing behind him, wearing Kaitou Kidd's classic white shirt.

A gentleman's mustache and a handsome face that always maintains a poker face are his signature features.

The two looked at each other and hugged each other tightly.

At this moment, words are redundant.

Father and son feel the warmth of each other's bodies. This is a privilege that only the living can enjoy.

After eight years, father and son finally reunited in the real world.

After hugging for a minute, the two slowly separated.

Kuroba Thief looked at Kuroba Kaito, who was just smiling at the corners of his mouth and not losing control of his emotions, and felt very relieved.

It’s good to be able to maintain a poker face at times like this...

Keep a poker face at all times, this is the teaching that Kuroba Toichi mentioned most times in front of Kuroba Kaito.

Poker face does not mean being cold or heartless, but it means maintaining a clear mind and calmness no matter what situation you are in.

Even when relatives reunited after not seeing each other for a long time.

"Kaito, you look like you've grown a lot taller..."

Kuroba Thief looked at Kuroba Kaito in front of him, stretched out a hand and put it on his shoulder. He roughly estimated that Kuroba Kaito's current height is 174cm.

Although there is still some gap between his own height, as a Phantom Thief, being too tall will also lose part of his upper limit as a Phantom Thief.

For example, Kuroba Toichi's height of 185cm makes it difficult for him to look like a petite woman even with his legs curled up.

"Of course, eight years have passed..."

The corner of Kuroba Kaito's mouth raised slightly, "But dad, your appearance seems to have not changed much compared to eight years ago?"

Kuroba Toichi explained: "Of course, because I am using a body made based on my physical condition eight years ago..."

"Making a body?" Kuroba Kaito was startled, not understanding what this meant.

"It's a long story..."

The Black Feather Thief patted his shoulder, indicating that he would explain to him later, and then turned to look at the man lying on the bunk next to him.

"Is this person the one you said helped you enter the dreamland?"

Kuroba Kaito nodded, "Yes."

"His name is Qin Zhibo. He is a private detective who runs a detective agency. He is also one of the most famous detectives in Tokyo."

After hearing Kuroba Kaito's explanation, Kuroba Thief looked a little surprised, "Are you actually a detective?"

Although he is a phantom thief, Kuroba Thief has no prejudice or hostility towards the profession of detective.

He has always advocated a fair fight, even when facing his own brother.

What's more, the detective who helped his son should be regarded as a friend.

"It's such a pity, he shouldn't have died so tragically..."

Kuroba Thiouichi felt helpless and regretful, but at this moment, Kuroba Kaito next to him immediately retorted.

"Dad, Uncle Qin is not dead yet!"

"Uncle talked to me just now, but he was too tired and fell asleep now..."

ah?

It's okay?

At this time, Kuroba Toiichi's poker face that he had maintained for decades was somewhat broken, and he looked at the man on the floor in surprise.

The Queen of the Night, Lilith, personally said that the God of Fan brought this man to the throne of Azathoth. Anyone who went there had no chance of survival.

Unlike humans in the waking world, humans in the dreamland have very widespread knowledge of gods. Even the old ladies in rural villages have some ancient secrets.

Among the countless ancient secrets circulating in this magical world, Azathoth is undoubtedly the most dangerous existence.

Azathoth is called "the demon king in the deepest part of Chaos" by people in the Dreamland. He is located on the edge of the entire Dreamland and above Kadath.

Because it is too dangerous, one can only reach the Chaos Palace of the Demon King by sailing to the edge of the entire Dreamland ocean with ships that cannot be built by man, or by using the power of mysterious creatures to break through the barriers blocking the Dreamland.

Compared to humans, the dream gods are more aware of his terror.

Therefore, in Kadasi, no dream god dared to mention the name "Azathos".

However, for such a terrifying existence, this man was able to face him directly and then successfully return to the real world.

This is no longer a question of luck or bad luck, but something that is absolutely impossible to do, and this man miraculously did it.

It is impossible to say that he escaped from the hands of the Fan God.

Because God Fan is a terrifying existence second only to Azathoth in the hearts of the gods of the Dreamland. He is an existence of the same level as Nodens, the Lord of the Dreamland Abyss, and is far from being comparable to the gods of the Dreamland.

In other words, this man named "Qin Zhibo" successfully escaped from the twin powers of Fan God and Azathoth.

Generally speaking, only two words can be used to describe such a person.

"What a 'legendary' man..."

Black Feather Pirates gave this evaluation.

If time permitted, he really wanted to have a good chat with this legendary investigator.

But he had other, more important things to know right now.

"Since he needs to rest now, let's go to the living room and talk..."

…

Kuroba Toichi and Kuroba Kaito came to the living room and sat down on the sofa respectively.

Kuroba Toichi first proposed to find out what happened in the past eight years after his "passing away".

Since the death of Kuroba Thief, the living conditions of the Kuroba family have not changed much.

With the wealth accumulated in the past and the help of their neighbors, the Nakamori family, Kaito and Chikage, mother and son, lived a pretty good life.

But this was only from the perspective of Kuroba Kaito at the time.

In fact, after Kuroba Toichi died, Kuroba Chikage and Terai Kinosuke immediately realized that someone had assassinated the genius magician.

Otherwise, with that level of roller coaster escape magic, it would be absolutely impossible for someone to accidentally get blown up by a bomb.

So the two secretly launched an investigation without telling the young Kuroba Kaito.

However, after several years of continuous investigation, the two of them made no progress.

Until a few months ago, Kuroba Chikage decided to investigate separately from Terai Kinosuke, and went to the United States to find a powerful investigator organization.

Terai Huangnosuke stayed in Japan, using the name of Kaitou Kidd to attract the murderer to show up again.

However, Terai Konosuke's Kaitou Kid didn't succeed in attracting the murderer, but he did attract Kuroba Kaito.

Because Kuroba Toichi set his secret base to open automatically after eight years during his lifetime, Kuroba Kaito discovered the identity of his father as Kaitou Kidd.

It's just that at that time, Kuroba Kaito was not aware of the deeper clues left by Kuroba Toichi. He just thought that the person pretending to be Kaitou Kidd on the market was the murderer of his father that year.

Thus, Kuroba Kaito met Terai Kinosuke for the first time in eight years.

After the master and servant cleared up the misunderstanding, they naturally worked together to investigate the murderer. Kaito Kuroba, who was more like the first-generation Phantom Thief Kid, played the role of Kaito Kid, and Kyonosuke Terai acted as a behind-the-scenes assistant.

The two worked on several cases in succession, but to no avail.

Until when he stole the super gem "Blue Birthday", he met a killer organization headed by "Snake", and the other party admitted that they killed Kuroba Toichi.

Kuroba Kaito used fake gems and the micro-tracker installed by the police to successfully learn the purpose of this group of people coveting the super gem.

They do not value the value of the gem itself, but the "Stone of Life - Pandora" hidden in the super large gem.

The Kaito Kid of Kuroba Toichi was an obstacle to their plan, so he was eliminated.

After that, Kuroba Kaito began to steal legendary gems more purposefully, and used the moonlight elimination method to screen out the Stone of Life that the organization said.

After that, Kuroba Kaito met various people one after another.

There is a witch who can use magic, and there is a British detective whose father is the number one in the Japanese police force.

As well as the schoolboy with unknown glasses who usually kills people wherever he goes, but he can occasionally suppress him.

These three people have all caused more or less obstacles on their way to theft, but fortunately they are not bad people.

When he said this, Black Feather Thief asked in confusion.

"Kaito, have you really met a witch?"

"Um……"

Kuroba Kaito nodded, "Dad, didn't you leave a message in the secret base? There is magic in this world..."

Black Feather Pirates didn't answer immediately, but looked like he was thinking.

He knew about the existence of magic because he encountered a witch during a theft more than ten years ago.

The witch claimed to be "the head of the Red Magic Clan" and came to defeat him on the orders of the God of the Devil's Banquet.

At that time, both he and Terai Kinosuke, who was his assistant, clearly saw the magic circle he was using regarding flames.

However, the Black Feather Pirates used a little trick to destroy the magic circle and successfully escaped.

In retrospect, the situation at that time was quite dangerous. If I were not careful, I might be burned to ashes by the flames.

But after that, he never saw the witch again.

Unexpectedly, after so many years, the witch still exists...

"Kaito, what do you think of the witch?"

Kuroba Kaito frowned, crossed his shoulders and thought for a few seconds, "It's okay...Although Anko is usually unforgiving and behaves a bit weird, he is still quite reliable at critical moments. "

In fact, since the two of them first met, with the help of Qin Zhibo, the two have become each other's good partners, but at least they have settled their differences.

When the Black Feather Thief heard the name "Hongzi", he also thought of the witch he met more than ten years ago. When he escaped, he heard the curse from her mouth.

"Kaitou Kidd! I'm going to find the legendary magic to defeat you!"

"Even if I can't come back, Crimson's descendants will find you!"

"Forever……"

Could it be...

The Black Feather Bandit's expression darkened.

However, Kuroba Kaito did not notice the abnormality in his father's expression and continued to introduce his acquaintance with Qin Zhibo.

The two met for the first time on a cruise ship celebrating the 60th anniversary of the Suzuki Foundation. Kaito's goal was the Suzuki family's heirloom "Pitch Black Star."

At that time, he was almost caught by Qin Zhibo, but fortunately he escaped with the help of Koizumi Hongzi.

But the next day, the two of them were blocked by Qin Zhibo at the school gate.

Later, with in-depth contact between the two parties, Qin Zhibo gradually understood that his purpose was to uncover the organization that killed his father, so he received help from the other party.

The two cooperated to capture Spider, the killer sent by the organization. Although they succeeded, they were rescued during the transfer to the police station.

Later, the two also had several good collaborations.

The most important thing for Kuroba Kaito is to find the real Stone of Life, Pandora - Crimson Tears.

"By the way, dad..."

"When I was young, why did you tell me that Crimson Tears was an artificial gem? It made me almost give up on identifying the gem..."

The legendary gem that has the magical power to grant immortality cannot be man-made.

If it weren't for Kuroba Kaito's desire to protect the treasure-carrying lady, he wouldn't have taken action against the stone at all.

Because of this incident, Kuroba Kaito once had doubts about his father's purpose.

Facing his son's doubts, Black Feather Toiichi's expression was a little heavy.

"Kaito, there are some things I don't want you to know. It's to protect your safety, because with every secret you have, there is an increased risk of being killed..."

"But now that the matter has come to this, I can only tell you."

"Actually, I once joined an organization called the 'Magic Eye'. Most of the members of this organization are magicians."

"The opponent of the Magic Eye organization is an organization called the Brotherhood of Beasts."

"That's the organization where the killer named 'Snake' you met belongs to."

As Kuroba Pirates slowly revealed the secret, Kuroba Kaito's expression suddenly became clear.

This was not the first time he heard the name Beast Brotherhood. He had heard it from his mother, Chikage Kuroba, in Las Vegas before.

It's just that this is the first time this answer has been confirmed from the Black Feather Pirates.

"This Brotherhood of Beasts, like the Magic Eye, was born in the Third Dynasty of Egypt in 2600 BC."

"The Pharaoh who ruled all of Egypt at that time was called Nephron Ka."

"This pharaoh possessed powerful black magic and had a very cruel personality, which eventually led to a crusade by righteous people from all over Egypt."

"Eventually, Nevren Kha's rule was overthrown, and Egypt's Third Dynasty came to an end."

"However, in Nefren Kaliu's prophecy in the basement of the pyramid, it was mentioned that he would be reincarnated into this world thousands of years later and once again execute a brutal rule."

"In order to prevent this prophecy from coming true, the Magic Eye Organization was established."

"The meaning of the evil eye is the Eye of Horus in Egypt, which secretly monitors and prevents demons from reborn on the earth."

"The Brotherhood of the Beast is a group of loyal followers of Nevren Ka, whose purpose is to make the prophecy come true."

"The Stone of Life Pandora they talk about is not a gem that allows people to achieve immortality, but an important tool for Nevlen Ka's reincarnation and awakening."

"And the full version of that prophecy is..."

"When the stars return, with the help of Nevren Ka's reincarnation and the red gem on the top of his crown, Nevron Ka will be crowned as the Black Pharaoh with more powerful magic and be reborn gloriously."
