Chapter 414 Staying Alone
  Koizumi Anko felt offended again. Based on various unpleasant experiences in the past, she deeply realized that Lu Ren was very reliable when facing foreign enemies. But when there are no external enemies, he himself will become the biggest cancer, and often a few words can raise people's blood pressure.

But unfortunately, there are very few enemies that she and Lu Ren need to work together to deal with...

Why did he only do a divination for Kidd in the first place and calculated that Lu Ren would be unfavorable to him? As long as you divine for yourself, this will not happen.

What a sin...

Several people followed the old man Suzuki into the live broadcast vehicle. The equipment in the vehicle was nothing special. As someone who often dealt with Japanese TV stations, Lu Ren was not surprised by this.

The old man Suzuki stood in front of the big screen and introduced to everyone, "In addition to the pictures taken by the helicopter, the pictures taken by the one hundred cameras installed in the museum are also here."

Zhongsen followed and looked over, and soon noticed something unusual, "Why is there no one in the museum?"

"I specifically removed everyone so that I wouldn't be afraid of him disguising himself. In addition, all the switches in the museum can be controlled from here."

While several people were chatting, Conan suddenly said: "He's here."

what? !

Everyone began to subconsciously look for Kidd on the screen. Only Koizumi Anko was staring at Conan.

This child actually discovered Lord Kidd's presence before she did? How can this be?

The second person to discover Kidd was his father-in-law. Officer Nakamori asked the staff to enlarge the picture on the screen he was pointing at.

The staff complied and now everyone could see it. In the moonlight, Kidd was flying slowly towards this side on his signature hang glider.

Zhongsen asked anxiously: "Which helicopter took this image, and where is its specific location?"

"Unit No. 7 is located behind the museum."

"it is good."

After learning the specific location, Nakamori rushed out at the lead, followed closely by Conan.

"That kid..." Koizumi Hongzi was puzzled by Conan's behavior of running away. It's understandable that Zhongsen's responsibilities lie in this little devil's role.

"Conan? It's okay, don't worry about him. He is a fan of Kidd. Now I'm going to ask Kidd for his autograph." Lu Ren replied.

"That's it, that's good. Don't you want to go with us?"

"No, I'm just here to watch the fun." Lu Ren looked at the old man Suzuki and said softly to Hongzi, "This is the protagonist."

At this time, the staff member just now suggested: "How about using that device to move the goddess statue inside first."

"No need. He is just here to explore the way tonight and will not take action. I also want to see what this moonlight magician can do."

However, when Kidd drove between the two buildings, his figure suddenly disappeared from the screen. Not only did the helicopter fail to follow him, but even the guards present did not notice how he disappeared.

Fortunately, Kidd did not keep the audience waiting for too long. About a minute later, there was a crisp sound similar to the explosion of fireworks in the air. When people heard the sound, they looked up and found that there was a cloud of smoke high in the sky. After the smoke slowly dissipated, Kidd appeared in the audience's field of vision again.

What was different from the past was that Kidd was standing in the air at this time. From the outside, he didn't seem to be using any external force, as if he really knew how to levitate.

"Kidd, my Kidd is floating in the air!" At this time, Sonoko may have expressed the thoughts of some people, such as another fan leader present.

Koizumi Hongzi, who was a step slower, was shocked again. She stared at Yuanzi for a while, then turned to Lu Ren and said, "She stole my lines."

"..."

Lu Ren took out a piece of orange fructose from his pocket and placed it solemnly in the palm of Koizumi Hongzi's hand, "Where are you a child? You are still trying to grab a line. Uncle, give you a piece of candy. Stop making trouble."

In Lu Ren's view, Koizumi Hongzi's current behavior was like a child who had been robbed and ran to complain to an adult. I can't say it's childish, I can only say it's more childlike.

Obviously when we first met, she looked like a royal sister, and even now she still looks like a royal sister. As a result, she would become like this only when it came to Kidd.

It seems that love really makes people blind. Even if it's unrequited love.

Koizumi Hongzi put away the fructose given by Lu Ren and turned her head aside, "I have nothing to say to someone like you who reeks of uncle."

gross profit:"???"

The old man Suzuki had no time to pay attention to their chatter. He picked up the walkie-talkie and issued several commands in succession, intending to find out why Kidd could float in the air.

Unfortunately, the feedback received was not very satisfactory.

Not only was Kidd not fishing anything above his head, there were no steel ropes hanging from the buildings on both sides. Not only that, after finishing his opening remarks, which attracted a burst of applause and cheers, he began to walk in the air. Under the spotlight, step by step towards the set goal.

"I see."

When everyone was amazed, Mao Li spoke calmly. At this time, he looked unfathomable.

Old man Suzuki didn't dare to be negligent and quickly asked him what he had to say.

"This is what Kidd said about hiking."

"..." The old man resisted the urge to curse and continued to ask, "Then Detective Maori, can you tell me how he did it."

"I don't know about that." Mao Li looked at Lu Ren, "What do you think, Ren?"

"I don't know, maybe he can really fly."

"Yes, yes. Lord Kidd is omnipotent." Sonoko agreed.

"This is Unit 3. Kaitou Kidd has already reached the sky above Trend Park and is expected to reach above the Suzuki Museum in one minute and take away the blue miracle from the statue of the goddess."

The intercom in Suzuki's hand rang again. Of course, even without his prompting, everyone in the car could see clearly. It wasn't even a minute. In less than thirty seconds, Kidd could walk to the statue of the goddess and take away the blue miracle she held high in her hand.

After some consideration, old man Suzuki made a difficult decision, "There is no other way, start that device."

With the operation of the staff, the goddess statue originally placed on the roof of the museum began to rotate and be taken back into the house.

Seeing that the target disappeared, Kidd immediately said, "Today's performance is over, let's meet tomorrow night."

After that, his figure disappeared into the smoke.

After a while, Officer Zhongmori and Conan returned to the live broadcast vehicle. After everyone arrived, everyone moved to the Suzuki Museum.

Old man Suzuki once again demonstrated the recycling device just now in front of everyone. To be honest, this device does not have any technological content. It just places the goddess statue on a rotating board, and you can control the rotation of the board by pressing the switch in your hand.

"Tomorrow night I will be waiting for his arrival here again. I will rent out all the buildings nearby and deploy several times more helicopters and guards than today. How did Kaitou Kidd realize his airwalk? I don’t know, but I will definitely catch him.”

"Wait." The old man Suzuki, who was yelling and looking impassioned one second, seemed to have been cast a restraining spell the next second. Not only did he remain motionless, he also asked others not to move at this time.

The others followed suit, but Lu Ren didn't want to waste any more time here, so he silently started the appraisal.

[Contact lenses dropped to the ground]

Lu Ren walked to Mao Li, leaned over and picked up the lenses on the ground, "You are looking for this, right?"

"Yes." Old Suzuki quickly put away his lenses and couldn't help but praise, "Your eyes are really good."

"Uncle, your eyesight is not very good?"

The old man Suzuki looked a little lonely, "When a person lives to the age of seventy-two, he really can't expect every part of his body to obey the same orders as before. So I must arrest Kaitou Kidd in my lifetime."

Nakamori was puzzled by this. He didn't understand why this old man with the ability to make money and travel around the world had such a big obsession with Kidd, a phantom thief who only appeared in Japan.

Even though Kidd and the Suzuki Zaibatsu had some disputes before. But the daughter of the Suzuki family doesn't care. Suzuki Jirokichi, a consultant, does he need to care so much?
  "What's the reason? Why do you have to arrest him."

"The reason. Because he took away everything from me. In the past few decades, I have won countless awards and countless honors. And whenever I gain something, the front page headline of the newspaper must be Me. With one exception..."

"Could it be that time..."

"That's right. That guy Kidd not only took away my front page, he even took away my second page. My feat of flying around in a human-powered airplane was pushed to the third page by him. This humiliation , do you understand?!”

Old man Suzuki loudly accused Kaitou Kid of his evil deeds, but everyone present turned their attention to Lu Ren.

"What are you looking at me doing? You all know it. Dongbao has never dealt with Kaitou Kidd. Even if he appears on the front page, it will definitely be an attack on him. Besides, when it comes to things like the front page of news, how can I, a small editor, do it? It’s decided.”

Lu Ren was talking nonsense without changing his expression. He won't do anything that doesn't benefit him. Of course he can be on the front page, but that's another price. As long as the money is in place, let alone making headlines, I can send it to heaven.

"It's okay, I won't bother you. I will definitely catch Kaitou Kidd. I will return to the headlines on my own."

"To show my respect to you, I have something else to do and I'll leave first." Lu Ren nodded slightly to the Maori people and left with Koizumi Hongzi.

At this time, the Red Witch was still immersed in Kidd's previous performance, indifferent to everything around her, and allowed Lu Ren to lead her forward. The garden has returned to normal at this time. From this point alone, she is indeed qualified to be called Kidd's number one fan.

Walking all the way to his Porsche, Lu Ren stretched out his hand and waved it in front of Hongzi's eyes.

"Come to your senses. Get in the car and I'll take you back." "That's not necessary, I can just open a portal myself."

"It's up to you. Just wait a moment." Lu Ren opened the car door and handed the handbag containing the souvenirs to Koizumi Anko, "This is the Koshien souvenir I brought back from Osaka earlier."

"Oh, that's right. I heard from my classmates about the women's baseball team, and you did a pretty good job."

"That's not my credit." Lu Ren didn't want to mention it anymore and changed the topic again, "By the way, with your eyesight, it shouldn't be difficult to discover the principle of Kidd's floating in the air."

"Ah."

"Then why are you so obsessed with it?"

"You do not understand."

"Ok."

The next day, same time at 7:30 pm. Old Suzuki arrived on the scene again on his sidecar motorcycle.

Only this time is different from before.

【Homo sapiens (disguised)】

This time Suzuki Jirokichi is disguised as Kaitou Kidd.

Lu Ren sighed and whispered to Koizumi Hongzi, "Don't he know that I can see through his disguise?"

Still as carefree as the original, he ran over disguised as an old man named Suzuki. So brave?
  "I know. But I promised him that you are just watching the show today and will not be detrimental to him." Koizumi Hongzi also whispered back.

"How can you be sure?"

"Because this is my request." Koizumi Hongzi narrowed her eyes, "No matter what I say, I have helped you a lot. You are not even willing to help me with this little thing?"

"How could it be?" Lu Ren sighed, "I will definitely help, but you should tell me in advance so that I can be mentally prepared."

"This is also what Kidd asked for. Because he wants to try again and see if you can see through his disguise this time."

"Tell him to stop trying. What's the use of trying again. Even if I can't see through his disguise, I still know his true identity." As he spoke, Lu Ren took out a two-piece suit for marginalized people, "No matter what I say He is also one of the top killers in the world. He can't just dance like this in front of me again and again just because I'm easy to talk to, right?"

Koizumi Hongzi's expression changed, and she was about to say something, but was blocked by Lu Ren again.

"Even if he can escape. His mother abroad, his housekeeper grandfather, his childhood sweetheart, and even you, some of them can escape."

Lu Ren did not reveal his trump card, Xiaoyou, but only mentioned the organization he backed. "The contract we signed was that you and I would not harm each other. But this contract does not involve other people. You also know what kind of organization I am backed by. Do you think they will be interested in a witch?"

Seeing that Lu Ren's expressions, movements and words didn't seem to be fake, Koizumi Hongzi realized the seriousness of the problem. She pulled Lu Ren aside and set up the soundproofing magic. "It was my fault for not notifying you in advance. I apologize to you." .But are you so angry?"

"I won't hide it from you now. I'm not just here to watch the excitement. The commission I received from the Suzuki Zaibatsu was to protect the safety of Suzuki Jirokichi, and the reward was 30 million.

But Kidd’s current behavior, I don’t know if this counts as a failure of my mission. Even if it doesn't count, the remuneration will still be paid into my account. If there is such a similar bodyguard job in the future, they will not come to me again. I have targeted Kidd several times before, also for money, 10 million at a time. "

"Why didn't you tell me earlier?"

"So what if I told you earlier? Ask yourself, will you choose to help him or me?"

Koizumi Hongzi was silent.

"Don't speak? It's good. It seems that I still have a certain status in your heart. Let me tell you this, you may have always had a question in your mind. When you completely lost your ability to resist, as a killer, I didn't choose I will kill you, but choose to sign an equal contract with you.”

"why."

"Don't think about it if you are greedy for beauty. I have no interest in you. No woman around me is worse than you. There are two main reasons why I don't do anything to you: First, I suspect that you have a back-up plan. Taking action hastily may lead to misfortune. Second, you have also seen the magic equipment on my body. Before I met you, I was involved in this area. I am very curious about magic, very curious. And I also firmly believe that there is always One day I will master extraordinary powers. When that day comes, I hope I have a companion instead of alone."

Companion? So this is how Lu Ren views her?
  "I'm not so angry because the mission failed. If I really want to make money, then all the protection in the world will be useless to me. You know I have this ability, I just don't want to, not that I can't. What I really care about The point is, both you and him should face up to my identity."

"I am a killer, not a good old guy who plays house with you and Kidd. It doesn't matter if others don't know, but you are so confident after knowing my identity. I don't know if you really trust me or if you don't at all. Take me to heart. Honestly, there's nothing wrong with what you did in the past. But that's not what Kidd did."

"He knew my identity and knew that I could see through his disguise, yet he chose to disguise himself as Suzuki Jirokichi like a child. Why, he thought that with you as his support, he could completely stop him I?"

"So he can feel at ease and jump in front of me with confidence? Does he think this is still a game? How dare he have such a playful attitude in front of a killer who knows him very well?"

"For your sake, of course I won't touch him this time. But how many times can your face be worth it? How long can you help him? Can you stay by his side all the time? When he is in danger Appear immediately?"

"Even if I never touch him. But I am the only killer in this world? How did his father, his predecessor Kidd, die? Do you really think it was just an accident? How many people in this world are secretly watching? Facing him? He dares to be so bold in front of me, an old rival, but in front of other killers, do you expect him to keep his duties honestly? What a dream? "

"Does he have several lives to live? Is he going to die once as a lesson? Can he be resurrected after he's done? I'll only tell you the next thing once. It's up to you whether you tell him or not.' If he doesn't value his life, then Why don't you give me the advantage of an acquaintance? His head is worth a lot of money.'"

"I will tell him properly. I'm sorry."

Koizumi Hongzi was not angry at all after being accused by Lu Renyitong. At first she was a little aggrieved, feeling that she had helped Lu Ren a lot, but he still made such a fuss out of a molehill.

But when she heard what happened later, Koizumi Hongzi didn’t think so. Lu Ren's words were accusatory at first, but later they turned into roundabout preaching. And it is indeed correct.

"You can continue to stay here and watch the show. I'll go find Suzuki Jirokichi."

"Come together, I'll help you."

"Don't come in the way."

……

After returning to his car, Lu Ren rolled up his sleeves and said, "Xiaoyou, see if Hongzi is following you?"

【No. 】

"That's okay. Now locate Suzuki Jirokichi's position for me. I'll pick him up."

The business cards I sent out earlier are now successfully put to use.

【OK. Positioning for you, positioning successful, current location is at 4-chome XXX]

Lu Ren ignited the car and started it. He now discovered that in addition to the previously developed functions, Xiaoyou could also serve as a perfect intelligent navigation. It's the kind of person who usually reminds himself not to run a red light or speed under surveillance. But if there is an emergency and you must speed, it can hack into the monitoring system and delete your speeding and violation records.

[Master, I realize that I wrongly blamed you before. You are actually a good person with a cold face and a warm heart. 】

"Why do you say that?"

[As for what happened just now, you were actually thinking about Kidd. Fearing for his life. 】

"Hahaha. Then you think too highly of me. What I was angry about was that I said at the beginning that the mission was likely to fail and I probably wouldn't be able to earn the 30 million. But later I felt that just saying this was a bit petty, and She would also have a bad relationship with Koizumi Anko. That’s why I added that paragraph, which was all made up on the spot. Believe it or not, I told her this, even if she was scolded, she would still thank me and think of me. .”

【…】

[Master, you are really not a human being. 】

"Thank you for the compliment. But what can I say about this? I think I am pretty good, not particularly bad. Because I know what kind of person I am, and I also know what is hidden behind what I just did. Such ugly desires.”

"The most ridiculous thing in the world is that there are many people who don't know it. They have impure intentions and do what they want to do in the name of doing good for you. In the end, they actually deceived themselves. , believing that he is really a good person.”

"Then he/she starts to be moved by himself/herself and feels that he/she is really good, so he/she continues to do evil deeds with what he/she thinks is a good intention, and even gets worse."

"This kind of person will angrily accuse others after others reject his/her so-called kindness, saying, 'You don't listen to advice or good people's words.'" I did all this for you, and I still I can't hurt you.'"

"What's even more interesting is that when you encounter setbacks, unfair treatment, or suffering that you shouldn't have to suffer, they will take it upon themselves to reflect on your behalf. 'Look for the reasons from yourself before anything goes wrong.', 'Don't you think so? There is nothing wrong at all?', 'Why not just find someone else but you.'"

"Why do you think they blame the victims and empathize with the perpetrators? The reason is simple, it's because of their self-righteous kindness. They feel that all the suffering in the world has a reason. It's pure fart."

"Have I ever said something to you, 'Everyone in this world thinks that others are purely bad people and they themselves are not purely good people.'"

"Arrogant and rude, greedy and mean, jealous and strong, ugly without knowing it. A person who is too normal will only be regarded as a freak in this abnormal world. What should I do, you ask?"

Lu Ren smiled brightly, stepped on the accelerator, and the car roared into the distance, "I choose to go along with it."

ps1:有件事大家应该知道。这里再提一下吧。铃木次郎吉第一代声优于2014年病逝,享年82。第二代声优在2020年9月27日病逝,享年84岁。

ps2: Please don’t imitate the protagonist, he is sick.

If a person blindly digs into the deep meaning and hidden thoughts behind every subconscious action, then there will be no good people in this world.

Don't test human nature. Not only do you not test others, you also don't test yourself. Through this kind of test or torture, you will always get a disappointing answer.

It doesn't matter if you are disappointed with others, but if you are disappointed with yourself, then the problem is a bit serious.

Doing things without caring about one's intentions not only applies to others, but also applies to oneself. To put it simply, don't be too aggressive.

 Thanks to Yuhai for the reward.
