Conan: The Magician of the End of the Century

Chapter 63 The Phantom Thief and the Detective

When Conan heard the name Kaito Kidd for the first time, a shadow suddenly enveloped him from the back and above, scaring him so much that he hung up the phone and turned around suddenly.

A cloak, a top hat, and a young man wrapped in a white dress appeared on the high platform behind him as if by magic.

Seeing the other party calmly jumping down from above, and walking towards him without a trace of hesitation, Conan gradually saw the lower half of the other party's face clearly under the moonlight, unexpectedly a little young.

At this time, Kaidou was quite curious when he saw a little boy appearing in the place where he was staying. He stepped forward and asked tentatively: "Little brother, what are you doing here?"

When he saw that the other party didn't pay attention to him, but ignited a sky monkey and waited for the fireworks to explode in the middle of the night before turning around, Kaito suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart.

However, he didn't feel flustered by this accident. He still kept his poker face very well, and just watched Conan's performance quietly.

Seeing the helicopter in the distance being attracted by the fireworks and flying towards this side, Conan felt proud and began to act cute: "Look, it's a helicopter! They seem to have seen the fireworks I set off flying towards this way!"

Seeing this scene, Kaito's heart was not disturbed at all, and he even wanted to laugh.Although the little ghost in front of him looked very unusual and smart, but he was obviously very naive in his heart. He dared to molest criminals under such circumstances, and he had never suffered a lot.

"Hmph, kid, it seems that you are not an ordinary kid." Kaito said deliberately, intending to test the opponent's reaction.

"My name is Conan Edogawa, and I'm a detective!" Conan was full of ambition at the moment, and he announced his name without any precaution.

"Hey~~~~~~" Kaito put on an expression of surprise and admiration, but in fact he has already equated him with a missing high school detective in his mind.

That's right, due to the interference of a certain child of prophecy, Kaito started investigating Kudo Shinichi's related information earlier than before.

During those few days of investigation, Kaito keenly discovered that on the day when Kudo Shinichi appeared on the news for the last time, there happened to be an elementary school student named Edogawa Conan who lived in the Mori Detective Agency.

It seems that there is no connection between the two people, but after that day, the frequency of the name Kogoro Mori appearing in newspapers suddenly increased significantly, as if he had taken the baton from Shinichi Kudo.

Therefore, Kaito began to suspect the relationship between Edogawa Conan and Kudo Shinichi, until the moment when the other party reported himself, he finally confirmed that the two were the same person.

Although it seems outrageous and absurd that a high school student suddenly turns into a primary school student, as a great magician, what Kaito lacks most is imagination, and he also believes that everything is possible. A "magic" worthy of his exploration.

Now that he knew the other party's details, Kaito was determined, not only did not panic at all, but instead looked at Conan curiously, with a meaningful smile on the corner of his mouth.

"Speaking of which, is it okay for you to stay here, Mr. Kaitou Kidd?" Seeing that the other party was unmoved and looked at himself with a smile, Conan felt a little drummed in his heart, and tried to threaten, "If you don't escape, the helicopter will kill you." Want to come over?"

"Hey, he's really a little detective who will repay his kindness. But for someone's sake, I'll show you a unique skill!" Kaito shook his head, and under Conan's bewildered gaze, he took out a walkie-talkie , began his performance.

"Hmm, I'm Teaki. I found Kaitou Kidd on the roof of the Kubado City Hotel." Facing the stunned Conan, Kidd showed off his powerful voice-changing skills.

"All vehicles currently patrolling Mihua Town and Kuboto Town, as well as all helicopter units, must now gather towards the above-mentioned destination immediately to arrest the Kaitou Kidd."

Just when Chaki Shintaro panicked because of his own voice coming out of the walkie-talkie and tried to defend himself, Kaito changed his voice again and began to command.

"Hey, it's me. I'm Nakamori. Attention all the guards in the Kubado City Hotel. Kidd is on the roof. Everyone immediately surrounds him. We must catch him!"

At this time, Conan was shocked by the opponent's voice-changing skills that did not require the help of a machine. For a while, he even lost the courage to take out the anesthesia watch.

Seeing Conan's expression of seeing a ghost, Kaito showed a smirk, and asked calmly, "Are you satisfied now? Little detective?"

Just when Conan's brain was running fast thinking about what the other party wanted to do, the passage door on the rooftop was suddenly pushed open, and Nakamori Ginzo was the first to rush out of the passage, raised his pistol and aimed at Kaitou Kidd: "Don't move, Kidd!" De!"

"So it's Police Officer Nakamori, hello~~~" Seeing the uncle from the next door, Kaito greeted him in a teasing tone.

"Hmph, it's close to less. I have already deciphered that notice letter of yours. I advise you to give up on that black pearl, because you have nowhere to escape now!" Nakamori Ginzo said confidently. Declaration of victory.

"But I didn't intend to steal that black pearl today. I just came to play an April Fool's game with everyone. I should have written this clearly at the beginning of the notice letter?"

"What?!" Nakamori Ginzo and Conan exclaimed in unison.

Amidst the shocked expressions of the two, Kaito unfolded the hang glider on his back, and started fiddling with the belt around his waist in a leisurely manner.

Seeing that the Kaitou Kidd was about to escape with the help of the hang glider, a group of policemen rushed forward and rushed towards the target without thinking too much.

At this moment, a flash bomb fell from Kidd's cuff, bursting out a bright light that made it difficult for everyone present to look directly at it.

"Little brother, do you know that the Phantom Thief steals treasures magnificently and is a creative artist; while the detective will only follow the Phantom Thief to find fault, but is just a critic."

After the strong light dissipated, Kidd disappeared without a trace in front of everyone.

"What did you say?!" Conan was shocked by what Kidd said at the end, but seeing everyone including himself being played around by the other party, he couldn't help but feel a sense of frustration in his heart, which made him depressed.

At this time, a piece of paper fell from the air and landed on the place where Kidd had just disappeared. Everyone took a closer look and found that it turned out to be a new notice letter.

"May 4

I will board a cruise ship departing from Yokohama Port
queen celesabeth

Phantom Thief Kidd"

Seeing the opponent's provocative notice letter, Conan clenched his fists, turned the loss of the first battle into motivation, and was determined to completely defeat the opponent in the next confrontation!
