Conan: The Second Personality of Kaitou Kidd

Chapter 284 The Crimson Tears Mechanism

Hearing this keyword, Judy subconsciously looked at the blue gem pinned to her chest, and then looked away, "I won't stop you."

"You get the real crimson tears and go, I won't stop you."

She said lightly: "From the very beginning, I told the police department about my attitude: I don't like Crimson Tears, if the Kaitou Kidd wants it, he can take it."

The eyelashes of the blond man are also light gold. Judy lowered the eyelashes to cover up the emotion in the eyes, "As long as you don't plan to return it, then take it away."

"it……"

"It's actually pretty good."

"Countless gemstone appraisal experts have praised the Crimson Tears. The Crimson Tears are the well-deserved treasures of the Hopper Thaumaturgy Troupe, the most dazzling and shining pearl in the crown, but I can't face it."

She still drooped her eyes, her long upper eyelashes drooped and overlapped with her lower eyelashes, and the overlapping point seemed to deepen a bit.

"I know that Crimson Tears is very good, but my parents held it tightly and passed away. My grandfather also suffered a big blow because of my parents, and died of a sudden illness..."

"I……"

Judy no longer lowered her eyes to hide her emotions, she tried her best to look up to the ceiling, the incandescent lamp on the ceiling left a stream of water in her eyes.

"I know that neither my parents' death nor my grandfather's death has anything to do with Crimson Tears, I just vent my anger."

"It's just, it's just that I don't know who else to hate besides the crimson tears."

Judy couldn't hate her parents.

Do you want to hate your parents for not being skilled enough in magic, not careful enough in performing magic, not big enough in life, not strong enough in willpower, not lasting long enough in the fire, and the corpse is too tragic?
You can't hate grandpa either.

Do you want to hate grandpa for not handing over the crimson tears directly to your parents, and don't even check for review? Do you want to hate grandpa for not being strong enough, and when he learned the tragic news, he was hit and collapsed on the spot? Could it be that grandpa didn't survive to stay with her?

"...I can only hate Crimson Tears."

Kuroba Kaito stared at her and the faint water color.

He was looking at Judy, but he was not only looking at Judy, but also looking at himself when he was young, Baishui when he was young.

"Have you ever thought about one thing, Miss Judy," he took out the real crimson tears, and said softly, "it is obviously a ruby, why are the crimson tears blue?"

The crimson tear Judy pinned was blue, a deep blue, without any fluctuations under the incandescent lamp, and it was a qualified dead object.

The real crimson tears that Kaito Kuroba took out were fluctuating blue.

The light of the incandescent lamp shines on the surface of the gemstone, flowing down naturally like the water in the river, and flashing white reflections at the corners.

As if to breathe.

Judy looked at the crimson tear in Kuroba Kaito's hand, she was stunned for a moment, "You really got it."

"The crimson tears are shining blue because, because..."

Black Feather Kaito said: "It's obviously a ruby, and it's called Crimson Tears. When a normal person hears these two information, the first thing a normal person conceives of is a sparkling ruby, right? It looks like a ruby ​​that shed red tears under the light."

He asked: "When you mention red, what do you think of?"

"Red words," Judy replied hesitantly, "flame, blood, unknown."

Neither are very good associations.

Kuroba Kaito affirmed, "Yes, Flame."

He smiled and handed the crimson tear to Judy, "Please take it, Miss Judy."

"This gem is so precious, it's so precious that I can't pick it up, so you can only take it."

Judy was even more hesitant and at a loss, she reached out to take the crimson tears, "What?"

"I would like to ask you to look at something." Kaito Kuroba snapped his fingers and waved out a golden lighter. "How can it be that the owner doesn't know about such a precious existence?"

He threw out a card casually and hit the light switch not far away.

The incandescent lights went out instantly, and the venue was dark.

Judy was even more at a loss, and there was also an inexplicable nervousness for no reason, "What, what?"

Kuroba Kaito turned on the lighter.

A red flame popped out, the flame was very small, only half the size of a pinky finger, jumping below two centimeters away from the crimson tear, emitting a red light in the darkness.

This red light smudged to the crimson tears, and slowly, the blue crimson tears in Judy's hand began to change and gradually turned red.

Sparkling red.

"If I'm not mistaken, your grandfather has a title, right?" Kaito Kuroba quietly looked at the sparkling red spreading upward, "Magician of Flame."

The red is spreading, and when it spreads to the ceiling, it begins to interweave, and something slowly emerges.

"This is the last magic trick he left in the world."

Something woven of red light came into focus: a picture of Judy.

There were pictures of Judy as a baby, maybe five or six, all over the ceiling.

In the photo, Judy looks about five or six years old. She is wearing a small magic suit, laughing and holding up a magic hat. A rabbit pops out of the magic hat in astonishment, obviously not understanding why it has been pulled out.

Behind the young Judy are three adults, two of whom are her parents, and one who wears a scarlet tear is her grandfather.

They were all smiling.

This photo is a photo of a smile.

There is also a photo of Judy, who is also a young child. She has blond hair and spreads her arms happily, and a snow-white dove flies out from under her arms.

She was still wearing a magic suit.

Even the birthday photo is wearing a magic suit, and the huge birthday cake is in the center, but the focus of the photo is not the cake, but Judy standing on the side of the cake.

She happily pressed the lighter, and blew out a flame like a dragon's tail, lighting the candles on the cake.

Behind her is a group of adults attending a birthday party, and the adults are also smiling.

……

In each picture, Judy is laughing and performing magic tricks. Her smile is extraordinarily sweet, without any indifference like she grew up.

Not to mention the slightest rejection of magic.

At the bottom right there is a letter from Judy's grandpa:

[My dear Judy, remember the past well, when you first stood on the stage, the excitement in your chest throbbed.

It is my heartfelt prayer that, when this jewel glows red, that divinely gifted daughter of magic, Judy Hooper, will wake up again. 】

The red light shone brightly.

Judy's eyes widened in astonishment, and the water in her eyes quickly filled with a layer of water, which was no longer faintly visible, "Grandpa, father, mother..."

Tears flickered in her eyes.

Kaito Kuroba quietly looked at the photo above, "This is what I call 'Crimson Tears Full of Love' and 'Organ'."

"Well, her family loves her very much."

Looking at it, his eyes fell on the photo of the birthday party, and found a figure among the smiling guests: Black Feather Pirates.

Black Feather Pirates was wearing a black suit with a white inner layer and a red bow tie. He looked at the young Judy surrounded by his family, his eyes were very gentle, and his smile was very soft.

In the upper left pocket of his suit is not a square, but two cards, one black and one white.

Some of the two cards overlap obliquely, carefully revealing black and white sharp corners.
