Daily Spy Life in the Detective Conan World

Chapter 547 Unlucky Kitano Yuuhito

According to the plan formulated during the day, the professionally trained police officers immediately sealed off all exits, and officers quietly appeared around the Metropolitan Police Department building, forming an encirclement.

The sound of footsteps echoed as the rooftop door was forcefully pushed open, and police officers filed in, occupying every corner.

As soon as Kitano Yuji stepped into the elevator, he heard the alarm and immediately sensed something was wrong.

At that moment, all the loudspeakers in the Metropolitan Police Department announced simultaneously: "Kaito Kid is impersonating Inspector Nakamori. Attention all floors, Inspector Nakamori in the gray suit is Kaito Kid in disguise!"

The sound wasn't just heard inside the building; it was also heard from the emergency call system in the elevator.

This also shows how much effort Inspector Nakamori put into this arrangement.

The sound was repeated many times, and the police officers on each floor remained on high alert at that moment.

Kitano Yuuji's expression suddenly turned grim, but fortunately this was the floor where prisoners were held. Considering that Kaito Kid had no interest in prisoners and there was no possibility of him escaping disguised as a prisoner, this place was not taken seriously.

As long as the prison guards don't notice what's happening in the cells, there's still time.

However, just as he relaxed his guard, before he could even press the elevator button, the elevator began to descend.

The elevator continued its descent and stopped on the eighth floor.

"Isn't this the floor where the First Investigation Division, Section 3, is located? Haven't they left work yet?"

As Kitano Yujin was lost in thought, several familiar faces rushed into the elevator, including a child.

"Uncle Kogoro, Kaito Kid has a hang glider, so he'll definitely choose to leave from the rooftop. Let's go straight to the rooftop and wait for him!"

"Officer Megure!"

Kogoro Mouri turned to look at Inspector Megure. He didn't like what Conan said, but he had to admit that it made sense.

Kaito Kid's greatest asset is his hang glider. Once he's on the rooftop, he has the freedom to do whatever he wants, so we absolutely cannot let him succeed.

"I see."

Inspector Megure nodded slightly. He didn't know much about Kaito Kid. The reason he was still at the Metropolitan Police Department at this hour was because Kogoro Mouri had called the police in the middle of the night to report a murder. After failing to resolve the situation at the scene, he rushed back to the Metropolitan Police Department to give a statement.

During this time, Conan suddenly felt the urge to urinate, went to the toilet, and then rushed out a short while later.

Conan found Inspector Nakamori, who was supposed to be having a meeting on the twelfth floor, in the restroom of the third department.

This discovery left Inspector Megure completely stunned.

Then a call was made to Section 2, and the operator there said with certainty that Inspector Nakamori was holding a meeting in the conference room to deal with the Phantom Thief Kid.

The matter is already very clear; there's no need to guess—the person in the meeting is undoubtedly Kaito Kid.

Inspector Megure immediately ordered officers from the Second Division to arrest Inspector Nakamori, who was in the conference room.

However, the police officers in Section 2 not only didn't believe it, but also thought that Inspector Megure was the Phantom Thief Kid. Fortunately, Conan was there and convinced the police officer on the phone in a few words, confirming that Inspector Nakamori in the conference room was indeed the Phantom Thief Kid.

What a talent! Phantom Thief Kid personally held a meeting to discuss how to deal with himself.

I heard he spoke with such conviction that he completely baffled the entire Kidd response team.

Inspector Megure was worried about the safety of the sapphire.

"Oh, there's a police inspector in Daqi, you're here too?"

Inspector Megure suddenly noticed that there was another person in the elevator and quickly greeted them.

Kitano Yuji was speechless inside, but he put on an awkward yet polite smile. "Yes, I was writing an investigation report about the Syndora Corporation in my office when I suddenly heard the broadcast and came out immediately."

I never expected that Phantom Thief Kid would dare to show up again!

"You still dare to come?"

Conan didn't understand what that sentence meant, but it sounded like Kaito Kid had come here once before.

Moreover, judging from the situation this time, it seems that the Metropolitan Police Department was prepared in advance. What exactly happened before?

Never mind, let's get to the rooftop first!

"This is bad! Phantom Thief Kid has jumped into the A elevator shaft. He's now disguised as someone else. All officers, be careful! You must pair up and verify each other's identities. We absolutely cannot let Phantom Thief Kid get away with this!"

Police officers' voices came through the elevator's emergency alarm.

Upon hearing the voice, Conan couldn't help but admire Inspector Nakamori; he was indeed quite capable.

Phantom Thief Kid acts alone, while having police officers in pairs can indeed prevent him from being impersonated.

"Inspector Megure, where is Elevator A?" Kogoro Mouri asked, rolling up his sleeves.

Today, I encountered a murder case, and the murderer seemed to be a professional killer who ran away after killing someone, which prevented the case from being solved. I was called in late at night to give a statement, and I was already in a bad mood. Now I have to run into Kaito Kid. I have to vent my anger!

The other party had previously impersonated my daughter; I can't let this go unpunished!

"Staircase A!?"

Inspector Megure, Takagi, and Chiba exchanged a glance, all seeing surprise in each other's eyes!
"This is Elevator A!"

The officers looked at each other, then suddenly froze and turned to look at Kitano Yuujin.

Right now, isn't there a lone police inspector in the elevator?
The other person was there when they entered the elevator.

Could it be him that the radio just mentioned?
Noticing the unusual behavior of Inspector Megure and the others, Conan and Kogoro Mouri also turned around and stared at Yuuhito Kitano.

The elevator wasn't very big, it could only hold about twelve or thirteen people at most. There were six people inside, so it didn't feel crowded. The people who came in later immediately distanced themselves from Kitano Yuujin.

Kitano Yuji's forehead was sweating, and his arm unconsciously rested on his waist.

This is the worst luck imaginable! Why did that damned Phantom Thief Kid have to go into the A elevator shaft?

"Hey, don't be fooled by the radio. Have you forgotten? Phantom Thief Kid can not only disguise himself, but also change his voice. Maybe he's already controlling the radio?" Kitano Yujin still wanted to struggle. The elevator space was small, and he was confident that he could draw his gun and kill two or three people, but what would happen after that? The consequences were self-evident.

Moreover, he is not Kaito Kid and doesn't want to be blamed for nothing.

Kogoro Mouri said quietly, "Actually, all we need to do is let us flirt a little!"

Upon hearing this, the entire elevator fell silent. Kitano Yujin took a step back, while Inspector Megure and the other two took a step forward.

Just at this critical moment, a loud "bang!" came from above, as if something heavy had hit the top of the elevator. Everyone looked up.

"We're safe now. Inspector Nakamori has finally made some progress. This time the setup is more meticulous than before, but there's nothing we can do about it since he's up against me."

"Wow--"

The top of the elevator was removed, and a strange policeman in a police uniform poked half his head in.

Judging from his posture, he probably wanted to climb into the elevator.

Seven pairs of eyes met silently.

"."

Kaito's smile froze as he realized the elevator was completely still and stopped on the eighth floor. He had assumed no one was there and was about to use the elevator to go to other floors and blend in with the police officers, hoping to arouse Inspector Nakamori's suspicion about all the officers' identities.

The plan was good, but there was a problem when the elevator was turned on.

Conan, Kogoro Mouri, Inspector Megure.
The six people in the elevator stared at him intently, as if they were looking at monkeys in a zoo, making Kaito feel a little embarrassed.

I hope these people didn't hear what I just said. It's kind of embarrassing to have my narcissistic behavior discovered.

Good evening, everyone.

"You all heard that, didn't you? I've already told you I'm not Kaito Kid."

Kitano Yuujin secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Kaito Kid's arrival was just in time; his appearance completely ruled out his suspicion.

"Sorry for disturbing you!"

Kaito awkwardly scratched the back of his head, threw out a smoke bomb, and then closed the elevator roof again.

Smoke instantly filled the elevator, and everyone quickly pressed the button to open it.

Inspector Megure and his group didn't have time to press the up button after entering the elevator, and they're still on the eighth floor.

It was this unexpected event that allowed Kitano Yuji to escape unscathed.

As the smoke inside the elevator dissipated, the group re-entered the elevator and opened the top door, only to find that Phantom Thief Kid was nowhere to be seen.

"Inspector Megure, quick, to the rooftop!" Conan said anxiously.

He was a step too slow; just as he pulled out the tranquilizer dart, Phantom Thief Kid ducked his head.

As for Yuji Kitano?

Of course I got caught up in it. As a police inspector in the Metropolitan Police Department, when the Phantom Thief Kid broke into the Metropolitan Police Department, I naturally had to go all out and there was no reason to retreat or leave.

As the elevator ascended, Conan's gaze lingered on Yuuji Kitano.

"Something seems off about this Daqi police inspector."

Others might not have noticed, but Conan remembered that when Inspector Daiki realized he was being suspected, he instinctively reached for his gun.

And later, when the topic of pulling each other's skin came up, he seemed to have stepped back.

I don't think I've remembered it wrong.

If he has no problems, there's no need to do this at all, right?
Forget it, let's deal with Kaito Kid first. We can handle this guy later; he's definitely not going to get away.

As Conan was thinking this, the elevator arrived at the rooftop.

"It's strange that Kaito Kid didn't leave immediately. Why did he keep pretending to be a police officer to attract the police's attention?"

Conan was very puzzled.

At the same moment, downstairs at the Metropolitan Police Department, a GTR performed a drift and came to an abrupt stop.

The car was parked casually on the side of the road, showing no fear despite being right in front of the Metropolitan Police Department.

Xia Chuan and Yue Er got out of the car with grim expressions.

Joel's eyes were still wet with tears, clearly he had just been crying.

"Don't be sad. If Mr. Kenmura were still alive, he wouldn't want you to be like this. We still need to check on things for the Lord."

Before he could finish speaking, Xia Chuan saw a crowd of police officers at the main entrance.

Besides the entrance, around the Metropolitan Police Department, you can see a police officer on duty every three to five steps, and they are all on high alert.

And the direction they were wary of was actually the Metropolitan Police Department.

"What is this doing?"

Xia Chuan looked completely bewildered.

Although he knew Kaito was coming to the Metropolitan Police Department, he didn't know the exact date because he hadn't been paying attention.

Considering the sudden assassination of Kenmura Tadahira tonight, his first thought wasn't that Kaito had broken into the Metropolitan Police Department, but that Thomas Cindora had hired someone to break him out of prison!
Thinking about it this way, perhaps Tadahiro Kenmura's death really is related to him!
