Stay away from Conan.

"The real police officer Kawazoe Zenkyu drew a lottery at the shopping street the day before the incident and won the grand prize, which gave him a chance to go on a mysterious trip of three days and two nights. So he set off on the trip. Then, on the first day of the trip, Kawazoe Zenkyu's phone ran out of battery, and he was completely out of contact until the whole incident was over..."

After everything was settled, Gao Yuan and Kuroba Kaito met secretly in a car. In this way, Gao Yuan told Kuroba Kaito what he had seen and heard in front of Inspector Nishimura not long ago.

Suddenly, after hearing this, Kuroba Kaito's expression became serious.

Then, Gao Yuan continued:
"In other words, the officer Zenkyu Kawazoe we met and interacted with these days was not the real officer, but someone pretending to be him. The method he used...did you use it too?"

So, after listening to Gao Yuan's story, Kuroba Kaito nodded very seriously and said:
"Well... just like how I used the identity of a staff member who was changing scrolls to sneak into the villa of the Fujiang Group this time, I also used this method to get rid of the person I needed to impersonate..."

Having said that, Kuroba Kaito certainly understood what Gao Yuan meant by that, and had a clear idea of ​​the identity of the person who impersonated Officer Kawazoe Zenkyu -

"But……"

Soon, after thinking for a moment, Kuroba Kaito raised this question.

Even if Kuroba Kaito didn't say it, Gao Yuan basically knew what he was talking about, that's why -

Why did the first generation of Phantom Thief Kid Kuroba Toichi, who deliberately pretended to be dead in the incident eight years ago and disappeared for such a long time without any news, and even kept it a secret from his son Kuroba Kaito for such a long time, suddenly appear in this incident related to Keisaburo Axue's treasure, and deliberately disguised himself as one of the police officers...

Come to think of it, if that officer Zenkyu Kawazoe was my father in disguise, then wouldn't that mean I had come into contact with him many times during the whole incident?

For example, when I was pretending to be Okita Souji and going to Fukushiro's house, and when I left Fukushiro's house, I was sitting alone in a car with him, and also in the police station meeting room and the hospital...

At that time, my father...

Did you recognize yourself?

Thinking of this, Kuroba Kaito was obviously a little melancholy. He didn't understand what he would think if his father had actually recognized him.

In this regard, thinking of this, Kuroba Kaito couldn't help but focus his thoughts on this aspect. On the contrary, Gao Yuan was indeed very curious about the purer reason why Kuroba Touichi participated in this -

Is it because of the sudden appearance of the clue "Dongkubo Ronglong" related to Keisaburo Axe's treasure, or is it because it involves the involvement of the arms dealer Kadokura?
Come to think of it, judging from the fact that Kuroba Toichi took the Star Edge Blade and has not returned it yet, it seems that he does not want future generations to look for Keisaburo Axie's treasure. Does he want to prevent any incidents arising from this treasure?
Or...

He just happened to be in Hakodate City and encountered this incident, so he came to give it a try?

In this case, it would be difficult to get an answer to this question without asking the person himself, but the original purpose of this trip to Hakodate has been achieved, and the whereabouts of Kuroba Touichi have basically been confirmed. So after that...

Now that it is clear that Heiyu Daoyi is still alive, the next step is to find a way to find him.

So if you think about it this way, the "Phantom Thief Crow" that appeared in the original work "Magic Kaito" looks so similar to Kuroba Toichi, could it be that he is actually Kuroba Toichi himself?
So, thinking of this, Gao Yuan couldn't help but say to Kuroba Kaito:

"By the way, do you know 'Phantom Thief Crow'?" After hearing this, Kuroba Kaito was a little confused. He didn't understand why Gao Yuan suddenly came up with such a title, which was so similar to his own name, Kaito Kidd.

So, Kuroba Kaito asked:

"Who is that?"

In this regard, seeing Kuroba Kaito's reaction like this, Gao Yuan knew that it seemed that the plot on Kuroba Kaito's side had not yet reached the matter of "Phantom Thief Crow", but thinking that since "Spider" had already appeared, it was estimated that the original plot of "Magic Kaito" would probably be staged sooner or later.

In this case, Gao Yuan said:

"I don't know how to explain it to you specifically, but if you run into this person in the future, you'd better pay attention. I feel like this person might be the key to finding your father."

Nothing is final, Gao Yuan reminded.

So, Kuroba Kaito kept this name in mind, thinking that he would ask Grandpa Terai to check it out after he returned.

So, with the end of this conversation, Kuroba Kaito and Takato parted ways. Takato was going back to reunite with Ai and the others, while Kuroba Kaito was going to go to the hospital with his real identity to visit the injured Nakamori Ginzo and check on Nakamori Aoko who was also in Hakodate...

However, Gao Yuan and Kuroba Kaito thought they had concealed their meeting and actions from everyone, but in fact, at this moment, on a tall pillar on Mount Hakodate, Kawazoe Zenkyu, dressed in a suit, stood on it silently like a ghost -

Because it was dark and his figure was extremely hidden at this high place, even if you looked up, you could hardly see his presence.

6◇9◇Book◇Bar

So, he just stood there quietly, looking down at the direction where Gao Yuan and Kuroba Kaito were parting, "Kawazoe Zenkyu" narrowed his eyes slightly, with a faint smile on his lips, and then -

With a wave of his hand, "Kawazoe Yoshikyu" actually removed all of his disguise, revealing his true appearance.

This person was wearing a black suit and a top hat. His face could not be seen clearly, but his outfit was exactly the same as Kaito Kid's, but in a completely black style.

At this moment, this person took out a samurai sword with a star-shaped blade from somewhere in his hand, and the corners of his mouth suddenly curled up, revealing an extremely arrogant smile.

At this moment, if Gao Yuan were here, he would definitely recognize that the other person was the "Phantom Thief Crow" he knew, and the two mustaches above his lips were exactly the appearance of Kuroba Toichi, and the samurai sword he was holding in his hand was the Star-Edged Sword that had been lost in Toshogu Shrine until now.

After confirming the relationship between Gao Yuan and Kuroba Kaito, this person suddenly threw his cloak behind him and disappeared into the night...

……

Time passed in a flash, and when Gao Yuan returned to his residence, it was still the villa he had rented with Ooka Hongye and the others. It was already late at night. He had planned to rest tonight and consider returning tomorrow, but Gao Yuan suddenly met a person he didn't want to see -
