Conan: The Second Personality of Kaitou Kidd

Chapter 23 is Nakamori Police Department, it's stable
A prophet, as the name suggests, is someone who can know the future one step ahead of time.

In the Kuroba family, "prophet" has another meaning: prophecy-like magic.

Magic is magic, not magic. Of course, it is impossible to truly predict. The so-called prophecy is just a fraudulent means. It is a magic trick in which the magician deceives the audience through various techniques, making the audience look like the magician is prophesying out of thin air.

One of the most classic is guessing poker.

In addition, the audience is asked to write down the number, the magician guesses which number it is, the audience is asked to roll the dice, the magician guesses the number of points, and so on.

For a long time, Kuroba Kaito was learning magical magic in pain and joy.

When teaching other magic tricks, Kuroba Pirates will often demonstrate it first, and then explain the tricks, so that Kuroba Kaito can practice hand speed and proficiency.Only when teaching prophecy magic, Black Feather Pirates would not directly dissect the techniques, but demonstrated it over and over again, allowing him to guess completely by intuition.

In magic, the magician is a well-deserved god, and Kuroba Kaito is of course defeated again and again.

But it's not a 'wrong guess', on the contrary, when relying on intuition, he can guess correctly every time like a god, and the accuracy rate amazed Heiyu Pirates, and asked 'Is this just based on intuition?Sure enough...a great talent, Kaito', but it's useless.

At the moment when the puzzle was revealed, Kuroba Pirates exchanged items lightly for a while, making Kuroba Kaito 'lose'.

Hearing the keyword of 'prophet' now, Kaito Kuroba frowned instantly, "I still remember."

Can not forget.

How could he forget the feeling that he knew he had guessed right, but watched others make the switch, and it was difficult to find evidence for the switch, and he could only admit with a poker face that he had lost.

He looked at the Phantom Thief suits on the foldable hanger again, and recalled what was published in the newspaper this morning [Yesterday, Phantom Thief Kidd left a notice 'Tomorrow 23:54 to steal the Gem of the Eye of the Moon', that is tonight near midnight , he will appear! 】News.

"Prophet," Kaito Kuroba repeated, "foretelling magic, deceit, deception."

He articulated the conclusion clearly, "This guy is fake."

The Phantom Thief Kidd in the news is fake.

This conclusion was made based on the 'hint' given by Heiyu Pirates, plus a little bit of intuition from playing poker.

Kaitou Kidd hasn't appeared in eight years, and Black Feather Pirates hasn't appeared in eight years. The guy who appears now is probably a fake.

"You probably don't remember," the radio was still running, and after a period of silence, Kuroba Roichi's voice appeared again, "Kaito."

"Huh?" Kaito Kuroba instantly turned his head to look at the radio, his eyes turned into dead fish eyes, "Please dad, how could I forget the prophecy magic?"

Is it biological?
I don't remember that kind of magic, I'm afraid he doesn't need to think about 'did something happen to Dad? ', but need to worry when walking, sleeping, eating, etc. when you are alone, "I won't be beaten by my dad suddenly with a sack?" '.

"Remember, Kaito, don't worry about crows, crows can be trusted," Black Feather Pirates' voice became serious, "but be wary of those who follow crows, they are full of malice."

"You can approach a docile and harmless pigeon, but never a woodpecker."

After these words, the radio began to be noisy, and Kuroba Roichi's voice became intermittent.

"When... tell... write..." The radio buzzed sharply, the voice was clear for a few seconds, and the seriousness continued to flow out, "Absolutely, absolutely, don't write down any prophecy."

A sharp electromagnetic sound sounded, and the radio froze a few times, then stopped playing directly, and stopped abruptly.

Kuroba Kaito: "?"

"It's not really broken, is it?" Kaito Kuroba patted tentatively, adjusted the radio a few times, and estimated its age, "At least eight years... wait!"

He quickly opened the cassette radio, took out the tape and looked at it carefully, but found no damage on the outside.

However, magnetic tape is subject to degaussing.

Ordinary tapes will be degaussed in about three years. If they are properly maintained, the air humidity and the storage place are more suitable, they can be stored for a longer period of time. However, this tape is stored directly in the radio, and this is an underground secret room. Humidity is higher than normal room.

"It won't be degaussed, right?" Kaito Kuroba read it several times, put the tape back into the radio, and planned to find someone to repair and check it when he had time. "It's strange, it's so strange."

It's so weird.

There is a secret room under the bedroom, and there are radio messages left eight years ago. His father is actually the legendary "Phantom Thief Kidd". This is the first strange thing.

The poster portrait, which he often touches, has never been opened automatically before. After the visit of the 'uninvited guest', it suddenly opened automatically. This is the second strange thing.

The 'crow' was mentioned on the radio, and not long ago, a crow with stitch marks on the right eye and a blood-red left eye approached Kaito Kuroba. This was the third strange thing.

Black Feather Pirates actually chose a cassette radio, and didn't save the tape carefully, and put the tape directly in the radio, so that key information was missing. This is the strangest thing!

It was too outrageous, Kaito Kuroba seriously suspected that Pirates of the Black Feather did it on purpose.

Leaving a key clue, but making such a low-level mistake, it doesn't look like a magician who is strategizing.

Or "what was left at the beginning were some missing key clues", and "the missing part is something that Kuroba Kaito can't know now", "when the radio is repaired, Kuroba Kaito should know those missing clues "When" is Kuroba Pirates' style.

Kaito Kuroba knew the magician too well, and he knew his father even better. He put down the radio, suppressed the desire to complain, and turned his head again to look at those phantom thief suits that had been in the secret room for eight years and were still so white and dazzling. .

He endured it, and endured it again, "...So eight years later, the radio was naturally damaged, but the clothes were fine?"

It's too much!The purpose is too clear!

It became clear that Kaito Kuroba didn't need to think and analyze seriously at all, as long as he opened his eyes, he could see a path in front of him: disguised as "Kaito Kidd", and went to meet that fake Kaito tonight.

No way, he was so proficient in being tricked by his biological father that he could know where the trap was almost without thinking.

Kaito Kuroba pressed his objection, he walked up to those phantom thief suits, raised his hand to pick up the white top hat, twirled it a few times in his hand, and finally put it on his head.

"Crows can be trusted, and those who follow crows need to be vigilant," he pulled out his white suit jacket again, "stay close to pigeons, stay away from woodpeckers."

"—Insufficient information, completely incomprehensible."

"but……"

He picked up the monocle with the four-leaf clover pendant, put it on his right eye, and showed his white teeth with a smile, "It is Nakamori Police Department who is in charge of guarding Tsukihito and hunting Kaitou Kidd, right?"

He is proficient at jumping into the pit, and he is also proficient at the Nakamori Police Department.

If it was the Zhongsen Police Department, the action tonight would be a breeze!
