Conan's grammatical investigator

Chapter 1018: Turn off the lights and release the hunters!

Phantom Thief Kidd thought that the crow monster in the vault was a prop specially used by Phantom Thief Crow to scare him.

As everyone knows, even Qin Zhibo doesn't know what kind of monster it is.

He didn't have time to chat with Kaitou Kidd right now, because that monster was chasing after him like a hunter.

Although Qin Zhibo didn't look back, he could still feel the smelly heat wave coming from behind.

The narrow space limited the monster's movement speed. The monster's fat body squeezed through the vault door, and its wings kept hitting the walls on the left and right of the corridor, making the sound of "dinosaurs fighting wolves".

When he was still a few meters away from the elevator, Qin Zhibo saw at a glance that the elevator had also lost power.

This also made Qin Zhibo sure that this was a trap set by the casino. They turned off the power supply just to trap themselves and Kaitou Kidd to death.

But what happened to the monster behind him?

Just when the monster was about to catch up, Kaito Kidd on Qin Zhibo's back twisted his body and threw a flash bomb backwards.

The flash bomb bounced off the floor, and exploded in the corridor with a bang, and a dark silhouette was instantly outlined by the intense white light.

I only heard the scream from the monster behind it, its wings fluttered wildly, and its black body twitched and rolled continuously behind it.

Afraid of light?

Qin Zhibo immediately caught the weakness of this monster.

In other words, as long as you escape from here, you will be safe.

While the monster fell to the ground and twitched, Qin Zhibo ran to the elevator door and took out the crowbar from the prop column.

But in the eyes of Kaitou Kidd, Qin Zhibo just touched his hand from behind his buttocks and pulled out a crowbar.

This made Kaito Kidd stunned. He usually hides some gadgets on his body. How did he hide something as long as a crowbar on his body?
However, Qin Zhibo didn't care about the astonished Phantom Thief Kidd next to him, he inserted his elbow into the gap of the elevator door, and with a firm push, opened a gap for the elevator door.

"Help!"

Qin Zhibo shouted, and the dazed Kaito Kidd reached out to help.

The two pried open the elevator door together and entered the elevator room.

But the elevator had no power, so the two could only open the lid above the elevator room and walk up the elevator shaft.

Qin Zhibo came to the elevator and squatted down. Kidd immediately stepped on Qin Zhibo's shoulder tacitly and smashed the lid with his fist.

Next, Kaitou Kidd climbed onto the elevator very dexterously, then turned around and extended a hand in a polite manner.

Qin Zhibo grabbed Kaitou Kidd's hand, kicked his feet hard, and went up.

Above the elevator shaft, infrared rays traverse the elevator shaft. As long as one touches one, it will immediately call the police.

But now the two are not afraid of triggering the alarm. Qin Zhibo and Kaitou Kidd climbed up the maintenance ladder of the elevator shaft one after the other.

The two climbed to the top, and the iron door on the upper floor was closed, and there was no gap to pry it open.

"It's a dead end..." said Kaitou Kidd, who was crawling below.

"Not necessarily."

Qin Zhibo lowered his head and said to Kaito Kidd, "Give me your identification card."

Phantom Thief Kidd hesitated for a moment, and threw the card upwards to Phantom Thief Crow above.

Qin Zhibo received the card, put his fingers on the side of his face, and smiled, "See clearly..."

"Because this move will be very handsome."

"Ah?" Kaitou Kidd froze for a moment.

But in the next second, Qin Zhibo's body slowly passed through the closed iron gate.

Kaitou Kidd's brain reacted for two seconds before realizing what happened, his eyes widened in shock and his mouth opened slightly.

Have you worn it?
Someone cheated!
……

On the other side, Lloyd and Snake in the control room were staring closely at the monitor screen.

However, since the surveillance cameras of this era did not have very good night vision effects, the screen was pitch black, and the two of them could not see what was going on, and could only hear some vague sounds.

Suddenly, a violent light exploded in the corridor of the vault.

Along with the burst of light, a huge shadow appeared on the monitoring screen.

"drink!"

"what is this?!"

Snake was so startled that he subconsciously took half a step back.

Lloyd cast a contemptuous look, "I saw you screaming like a little girl...that's the Night Hunter."

"Night hunter?" Snake looked puzzled.

Lloyd didn't bother to explain in detail with Snake.

Nowadays, with the increasing number of believers in Naia, such as the Wisdom Cult of the Starry Sky and the Beast Brotherhood have put on a modern cloak.

Many peripheral members have no access to the real core secrets, thinking that they are simply working for terrorist organizations.

The God of Many Faces, Nyarlathotep has countless incarnations throughout the universe.

And the Night Hunter is just one of them, and he is also the one most admired by the Wisdom Cult of the Starry Sky.

"Oh, a flashbang?"

"It's a pity that just that little bit alone can't repel the night hunter..."

Lloyd smiled grimly, as if he had already pronounced the fate of Kaito Kid and Kaito Crow.

But at this moment, a staff member suddenly reported.

"The elevator shaft siren is ringing, someone is in the elevator shaft!"

Lloyd's face was shocked, and he immediately stared at the darkness on the screen.

Obviously, the two phantom thieves got into the elevator taking advantage of the delay of the flash bomb.

However, the elevator lost power, and no one opened the iron door above it from the outside, so the two were still unable to get out.

But just when Lloyd thought so, in the picture of the elevator on the upper floor, a translucent figure gradually came out from the iron door.

This one is completely black, with a black suit, black top hat, and black cloak.

Now even Lloyd's eyes widened, his face full of disbelief.

The strange thief crow actually came out of the iron gate!

"This is impossible!"

Everyone in the control room couldn't believe this miraculous scene, but this miracle did happen, and its shock index even surpassed that of the magician David who crossed the Great Wall in 86.

From the surveillance screen, the strange thief Crow came through the iron gate, and then scanned the identification area with his ID card, releasing the strange thief Kidd inside.

The two strange thieves made it safely to the upper floor of the elevator and returned to the brightly lit corridor.

Lloyd stared angrily at the surveillance screen, feeling a great humiliation in his heart.

He roared.

"Turn off the lights!"

"Turn off all the lights!"

……

Outside the elevator room, Qin Zhibo swiped his identification card and released Kidd, the phantom thief inside.

As soon as he came out, Kaitou Kidd couldn't wait to ask.

"How did you just do that!?"

"Want to learn?"

When Qin Zhibo asked, Kaito Kidd's pride in magic was immediately triggered.

"Hmph~ I don't need it, I must have used some trick..."

The strange thief Kidd's words were a bit unfounded, because he checked the iron gate immediately after the strange thief crow passed through just now, and found nothing abnormal.But in the end is how to do it?

At this time, Qin Zhibo asked in a calm tone: "You owe me once now, is that gem on your body?"

Kaito Kidd, who knew he was rescued by the other party, shook his head, and said honestly, "No, just when I was about to attack, that gem disappeared, and then that monster appeared..."

"Disappeared?"

Qin Zhibo frowned. He thought that the treasury that Kidd entered first must have already got the "Black Crow in the Night".

Suddenly, Qin Zhibo turned his head and realized something.

The nine angels warned that the gem must always be exposed to light, but just now the gem happened to be in a light-free environment.

When the gems are gone, monsters appear.

Could that monster be...

At this moment, the lights in the corridor suddenly went out again, and the surroundings fell into darkness.

Qin Zhibo immediately realized that the matter was not over yet.

"Hurry up, that monster will come up again!"

"What?" Kaitou Kidd looked back at the dark elevator shaft and heard the sound of "bang bang" metal hitting from the elevator shaft below.

The loud sound hinted that the monster was not dead, just like the demon Satan who was about to break through the cage of hell.

Qin Zhibo and Kaitou Kidd ran out immediately, and when they came to the mahogany door, Kaitou Kidd swiped his card again.

But when the gate opened, it wasn't the magnificent casino outside the gate, it was still pitch black.

In the darkness, countless gamblers were asking each other what happened, and some gamblers took the opportunity to slap their chips on the table with dirty hands.

The four security guards guarding the mahogany door turned their heads alertly when they heard the movement behind them.

"Who!"

However, the four of them were quickly dealt with by Qin Zhibo and Kaito Kidd.

Qin Zhibo looked around and realized that the monster was afraid of light, so the electricity of the entire casino was cut off to pave the way for the monster.

too crazy!

Now even if monsters rush out and kill innocent people, the casino can still blame the two monster thieves.

Anyway, the police would never believe in the existence of monsters.

Qin Zhibo turned his head to look at Kaitou Kidd, and said, "That monster is afraid of light, let's lead him outside."

No matter how powerful the behind-the-scenes boss of the casino is, it is impossible to control the power supply of the entire Las Vegas.

Qin Zhibo's plan was immediately approved by Kaitou Kidd.

At the same time, there was a rumbling sound from the corridor behind, and the ancient "Black Crow" rushed out of the elevator shaft and was rushing towards this side.

The monster seemed to have activated its hunter instinct. Facing the maze-like corridor, it headed straight for Kaito Kidd and Qin Zhibo without any deviation in direction.

His wings flew over the heads of everyone in the hotel at low altitude. In the darkness, people didn't realize what was going on, but they could smell a burning smell.

Using the vision of the night vision device, the two passed through the guests who were confused in the darkness and ran upstairs to the hotel.

The monster like a night demon was chasing after him. The human corridor was still a bit narrow for him. Huge wings fluttered in the corridor, easily bending the steel railing.

When reaching the floor enough to take off, Qin Zhibo and Kaitou Kidd jumped out of the window at the same time.

Two glider wings, one black and one white, opened in the air, instantly attracting the attention of countless onlookers on the ground.

Ever since the power outage at the Starry Sky Hotel, thousands of onlookers in the square knew that something must have happened inside the hotel.

But they didn't expect that the two phantom thieves would appear together.

"Phantom Thief Kid appears!"

"And the Phantom Thief Crow! Why did they appear together?"

"What's that behind them?!"

Countless people looked up at the Starry Sky Building and saw with their own eyes that the window the Phantom Thieves had just jumped out of was broken, and a huge shadow emerged from inside.

"Oh! My God!"

"what is that?"

"Is it a UFO? Kaitou Kidd is actually an alien?"

At this moment, countless people looked up at the sky and saw something rushing out of the hotel window.

Among them was Terai Konosuke, who was ordered to make a video downstairs. He clearly saw what it was through the video recorder.

It was a huge mass of dark color, like a mass of black ink covering the sky, and gliding across the sky like a black meteor like an invisible cloud of smoke.

What's more terrible is that that thing has a target, he is chasing Kaitou Kidd who is also gliding above the sky.

Terai Huangnosuke opened his mouth slightly in surprise, and at the same time he couldn't help but feel worried.

sir...

……

In the sky, Qin Zhibo and Kaitou Kidd flew side by side.

And more than ten meters behind the paragliders of the two, a group of black shadows were persistently chasing them.

Qin Zhibo took the time to glance back, and with the help of the city lights below, he was finally able to see clearly what kind of monster it was.

It was more like a giant bat than a black crow.

With a swollen bat body, a pair of shriveled wings stretched more than five meters, and a single fiery red eye divided into three petals stared at the prey in front of it.

Qin Zhibo looked down at the city below again. Although the flashing neon lights of the city were bright, the light was not concentrated enough to reach the sky.

Suddenly, Qin Zhibo saw a large searchlight built by the Las Vegas police on the top of the building below.

It's a pity that the light from the searchlight is not enough to reach the sky.

Seeing this scene, Qin Zhibo had a plan.

"This monster is afraid of light, let's fly separately."

"You are responsible for leading the monster down, and I will go down and occupy the searchlights of the police."

Kaitou Kidd understood, and the two immediately separated and flew in two directions.

Qin Zhibo flew to the side, thinking that his black suit would not be so dazzling and the monster would chase the white Kaitou Kidd.

But things backfired, the giant bat flew towards Qin Zhibo without any hesitation.

my luck...

No way, Qin Zhibo became a monster puller.

The Kaitou Kidd landed silently on the roof of a spacious building, disguised as a policeman in a second, and came to the searchlight in the name of coming for reinforcements.

Seeing that Kidd was ready, Qin Zhibo controlled the hang glider to dive down.

The night hunter behind him also swooped down, and the three split-petal one-eyed radiated a scarlet light.

The Phantom Thief Kidd on the rooftop looked at the right moment and aimed his searchlight at the Night Hunter behind him.

The blinding light shone on the Night Hunter, and that mass of pitch-black flesh immediately emitted white smoke.

The strong smell of burning and the howling of monsters spread over the city along the dark wind.

"it works!"

The Kaitou Kidd looked happy, and the hands holding the handle of the searchlight became stronger, as if he was holding a blue-fired Gatling with infinite bullets.

But at this moment, there was a loud "eng" sound in the whole city.

Afterwards, the entire Las Vegas was plunged into darkness.
