Conan: The Second Personality of Kaitou Kidd

Chapter 60
The moment Kaitou Kidd disappeared, Kudo Shinichi chased after him. He didn't know Kaitou Kidd's escape route, but he could speculate.

The first thing to exclude is the first floor of the clubhouse.

The police surrounded the first floor of the clubhouse tightly, and there were quite a lot of people outside. Once Kaitou Kidd left from the first floor, a stampede would almost certainly occur.

Therefore, Kaito Kidd would never leave from the first floor, and almost every room upstairs had police officers on standby, so it could only be the top floor.

Kudo Shinichi contacted the police officers on guard on the top floor through the walkie-talkie, "Hey, have you found any traces of Kaitou Kidd?"

The moment he quickly went upstairs and was running in the corridor, he heard heavy and chaotic footsteps from a distance, and his own voice, "Traces of...?"

Kudo Shinichi: "?"

He turned the corner and almost ran into a group of police officers coming down from the roof.

The leading policeman slammed on the brakes, "Mr. Xinyi!"

"We haven't found any traces of Kaito Kidd yet." Panting, he wiped the sweat from his forehead, and quickly replied to Kudo Shinichi's question on the walkie-talkie. He was suspicious again, "Wait?"

"Why are you here? Weren't you on the rooftop just now?"

"This is Phantom Thief Kid!"

As he said that, the police officers rushed in in a swarm, and all of them rolled together in an instant, struggling with each other.

Kudo Shinichi: "..."

Ah, it's no surprise what's going on?

He first found the leader with difficulty from the crowd, raised the walkie-talkie very simply, pressed the talk button, and then pulled his face, "Look clearly, there is no disguise on my face, yes True face."

He let go of the keys.

Another walkie-talkie popped up his voice immediately.

The leading police officer was stunned for a few seconds, then quickly shouted to tell the others to stop, and immediately apologized, "I'm sorry, sorry, I asked you to verify it again, Mr. Shinichi!"

"You came down so fast that I thought..."

"..." Kudo Shinichi grasped the point, "I just ordered you to go downstairs from the rooftop?"

"Yes," the leading police officer answered logically, "You said that there is Kaito Kidd below, and the princess is in danger. Let us go down and help."

He added graciously, "The helicopters have also scattered in all directions, and they are already keeping a close eye on the first floor, planning to hunt down the traces of Kaitou Kidd with all their strength. Once he escapes, he can definitely be arrested immediately!"

Kudo Shinichi: "..."

Kudo Shinichi adjusted the channel of the walkie-talkie and said concisely, "All the helicopters focus on the rooftop."

He raised his hand and patted the police officer's shoulder, and said concisely again, "Yes, the Kaitou Kidd appeared downstairs, you go to protect the princess first."

The police officer responded immediately, "Yes!"

The crowd rushed out again.

Kudo Shinichi squeezed out from the crowd and continued to go upstairs quickly. The moment he reached the rooftop, he saw the white figure.

The white figure stood at the very top, with his back to the rooftop door, his cloak fluttering wildly like ink spreading in the water.

Hearing the movement, he looked sideways and lowered the brim of his hat with a smile, "Ah, it's 2 minutes later than expected, but as..."

Kaitou Kidd paused for two seconds, then said bluntly: "But people like us don't care about time, right?"

The turning point was too blunt, Kudo Shinichi: "?"

He became vigilant, "Is this a reminder of some kind of code?"

Kaitou Kidd didn't answer this question. He lowered the brim of his white hat again, half covering his face, only showing most of his side face and chin.

The profile and chin are familiar.

Knowing that Kudo Shin saw each other every day, he narrowed his eyes, "I said, you disguised yourself as me, are you planning to play some tricks?"

Phantom Thief Kidd still didn't answer this question, he smiled leisurely, "Saw the famous Phantom Thief, but the famous Mr. Detective didn't plan to arrest him?"

"For you, the negotiations between the Neon Police and Europol were quite intense."

Kudo Shinichi replied, "If it's an ordinary thief, of course we'll catch it."

"However, there are too many doubts about you."

"You were there when the magic started on the first floor, right?"

"When I first smelled the smell of plasma, I thought it was a trick of magic to intimidate the audience present, but later, something wrong with that assistant was so obvious that it seemed as if he was really committing a crime."

Even 'dragging people into the water' is extraordinarily authentic.

If Kaitou Kidd hadn't appeared, Kudo Shinichi would have interrupted directly.

"He thought there was a real living person in the item box," he said, adding, "But he didn't know it before he cut the knife."

Therefore, there is still a real murderer hidden in this case.

But that's not the point, the point is:
"You return the pupil of the moon, stop the murder, and don't steal the diamond left by Princess Anna's parents."

"why?"

Kaitou Kid casually used declarative sentences, "I am Kaitou Kid."

Since it is Kaitou Kidd, of course he can do whatever he wants, there is no reason at all.

He smiled shortly again, "For example, now, as expected of a detective, the means of delaying time are so subtle and ingenious that one has to applaud and admire."

Kudo Shinichi reacted: He is a novice detective, but he is not famous at all, so "famous detective" is ironic, and the latter sentence is even more ironic.

"The movement of the helicopter coming over is too loud," he said indifferently, "I didn't intend to hide it at all."

"Besides, I am not responsible for this operation, I can only give advice, and now it seems that the probability of your successful escape is 90.00% nine."

Instead of giving it a try, it's better to ask a particularly curious question.

For example, why the pupil of the moon was returned, for example, why the murder was stopped, for example, why he stayed and waited for him when he could escape directly.

"As expected of 'Kudo Shinichi'," Phantom Thief Kidd praised, "accurate to incredible judgment."

But he was bragging about himself.

Kudo Shinichi: "."

This guy seems to be a little youthful and lively, not mature... Sorry, he wasn't very mature eight years ago, and he was still scaring children.

He ignored the trash talk, put his hand in his pocket, and asked directly, "What are you trying to do by pretending to be me? Why don't you just leave, but wait for me."

"This time, what puzzle do you want to leave behind?"

"Ah, that's not it." Kaitou Kidd pointed to the sky, "I'm not waiting for you, but for that crow."

Kudo Shinichi looked up and saw a crow in the dark night.

The crow was darker than the night, and it almost merged with the night. It was staring at the Kaitou Kidd, its wings were flapping very hard, and it seemed a little angry.

"The kids in my family resist birds," Kaito Kidd said leisurely, "so I'm waiting for that crow to leave my escape route, otherwise I'll be scared."

"But it's still waiting for you. Can you solve this magic case involving complex human nature?"

"If you try your best, you can barely do it."

He fell backwards, spread out his hang gliding wings in mid-air, flew more than ten meters in an instant, and only left a word in the distance.

"That's all, Kudo Shinichi!"
