Crossover Anime: Starting with Adopting the Homeless Melon God

"I do not know."

"I've never heard of it either. But it's quite beautiful."

These suddenly bursting fireworks were naturally prepared by Kaito.

He originally intended to use the fireworks to attract the attention of those stupid policemen, and also to warm up for his own appearance.

However, Kitagawa Yu has now 'deciphered' the correct content of the notice, and the police who were lying in wait have long since moved from the castle tower to the Tsutenkaku area, so the fireworks have naturally lost their original purpose as bait.

However, since the fireworks were already prepared, it would be a shame not to set them off, so Kaito went ahead with the plan.

As for his original plan to appear at Tsutenkaku, he had no intention of changing it. In his view, as long as Kitagawa Yu didn't cause trouble, the mere Japanese police couldn't do anything to him.

"Hey everyone, good evening! Sorry to keep you all waiting!"

As the clock struck 7:20, Kaito, dressed in white, made a dazzling appearance amidst a sudden explosion of smoke bombs.

"It's Kaito Kid! He really showed up at Tsutenkaku Tower!"

"Go and grab him!"

We absolutely cannot let him get away this time!

After a brief moment of stunned silence, the dozen or so police officers who had been lying in wait around rushed forward with a roar, acting like bandits who had spotted some rare treasure.

However, they soon discovered something very embarrassing.

Kaito appeared on the top of the Tsutenkaku Tower, a sharp, round pillar, which was eight or nine meters above their terrace. Without a ladder or other tools, they simply couldn't get up there!

What's worse, Kaito didn't know that he had just smeared something on the pillar, making it wet and slippery, so now they couldn't even climb up the pillar by holding onto it.

Thus, a very comical scene was formed before our eyes.

Kaito stood proudly atop a cylindrical pillar that was only fifty centimeters thick and eight or nine meters high.

Below, a dozen policemen surrounded a pillar, each with their necks craned back, panting heavily, their faces showing a murderous look as they glared fiercely at Kaito, but they were powerless to do anything about it and could only watch helplessly as Kaito pressed the button on the detonator in his hand.

"boom!"

With the detonation of a remote-controlled bomb planted in advance at the power company, the entire city was plunged into darkness, except for hospitals, hotels, and traffic lights that had backup power systems.

"Kaito still makes such a big fuss!"

Kitagawa Yu looked at the pitch-black city around him and couldn't help but silently complain.

He was actually quite puzzled as to why Kaito was so certain that Nakamori Ginzo's side would have power restored first after the power outage.

What if the unassuming warehouse where Nakamori Ginzo worked didn't have a backup power supply?

I don't understand.

In short, in less than two minutes, he followed Scrooge's sniper rifle and found Kaito, who was flying in the air using a hang glider.

Clearly, Kaito's plan to launch an "air raid" remains unchanged.

"In that case, wouldn't he still expose himself to Scout's gun? Then what was he doing disguised as a washing machine at Sonoko's house? It couldn't have been just to take advantage of Ran, could it?"

Although he was very puzzled, he did not act rashly and continued to wait for the right opportunity to make a move.

A few minutes later, Kaito flew over them again in his hang glider.

Unlike before when he was empty-handed, this time he was holding a metal box in his left hand, and he was flying out of the city, which meant he had obviously succeeded.

"Could this guy have installed a bulletproof monocle to withstand bullets? Isn't he afraid that Scout might miss his right eye or even shoot at the wrong spot?"

Kitagawa Yu glanced at Kaito, who looked carefree and completely unprepared above him, and then at Scorpion, who had already aimed at him again and might pull the trigger at any moment. After hesitating for a moment, he decided that he couldn't wait any longer.

Although he is stronger and faster from seven steps away, with his current strength and speed that exceed the limits of the human body, it should not be a problem for him to take down Scrooge with a sneak attack.

But just as he was about to make a move, Elena suddenly reached out and grabbed him.

"what happened?"

Kitagawa Yu was taken aback, then turned to Elena and asked in a low voice.

"Look over there."

Elena whispered in his ear as well, pointing to the railing not far away.

Suddenly, a white pigeon landed on the railing, staring intently at Scorpius with its red eyes.

More importantly, there was something clearly tied to the pigeon's leg; judging from its appearance, it seemed to be...

"Miniature camera?"

Kitagawa Yu raised an eyebrow in surprise.

"Is Kaito planning to film the entire process of Scrooge's attack as evidence?"

"But if Scrooge opens fire—"

Suddenly, an idea flashed into Kitagawa Yu's mind.

A phrase that was very familiar from his past life popped into his head.

"I bet your gun is unloaded—"

"boom!"

The distinctive, deafening sound of a sniper rifle echoed through the night sky, and at the same time, a burst of flame, strikingly visible in the moonlight, shot from the muzzle.

then

Kaito, who was flying recklessly in the sky in his glider, was completely unaffected. In just a few seconds, he disappeared into the night under the bewildered gaze of Scrooge.

"???"

"it is as expected!"

"Kaito just came over to secretly switch Scorpion's bullets!"

Kitagawa Yu suddenly realized.

In this way, the miniature camera on the pigeon's foot could be used to solidify the evidence of Skobing's crime, while also ensuring his own safety—truly killing two birds with one stone.

As for why Kaito was unharmed after Shikabing fired the shot...

This can be easily explained as Scrooge's shot missing its mark.

As he guessed, it turned out he was right.

In fact, when Kaito went to the secret warehouse where Nakamori Ginzo and Mouri Kogoro were to steal the treasure, he had already left behind a laptop.

In addition to displaying Skobing's image and GPS location in real time on the laptop screen, a document open next to it also showed Skobing's detailed information.

"International assassin?"

"A passionate collector of Romanov dynasty antiques?"

"Is their characteristic a preference for sniping the right eye of their target?"

"What do you mean?"

Nakamori Ginzo and Mori Kogoro exchanged bewildered glances.

At first, the two were not clear about what was going on, and they only realized what was happening when Scrooge opened fire.

Compared to a phantom thief like Kid who only steals and doesn't kill, it's clear that a top-tier assassin on the international wanted list who carries a gun into Japan is far more dangerous and important.

So Nakamori Ginzo immediately gave the order via walkie-talkie and led his men over there.

To be fair, while the Japanese police in this world are a bit incompetent—they can't solve 90% of murder cases without the help of a famous detective—their attitude is still commendable.

Although Scrooge followed the assassin's code of conduct, he would retreat immediately if he failed to land a single blow.

However, there was nowhere to hide from the pigeons' pursuit. Before they could even return to Sonoko's manor, they were already cornered on an empty street by Nakamori Ginzo and dozens of police officers.

"Don't move!"

"Put the gun down!"

"Put your hands up!"

"Scott, you're surrounded!"

He saw dozens of revolvers suddenly appear in front of and behind him, all pointing at him.

Scorpion, who had been wondering why that shot hadn't taken down Kaito, was completely dumbfounded.

She was hiding so well, how did she suddenly get exposed and surrounded?

The most important question is whether she should remain still, put down her gun, or raise her hands!

If this isn't explained clearly, it will cause her a lot of trouble!

After hesitating for a moment, Shi Kaobing still felt that it was better to follow international practice and raise both hands high.

Although I've heard that Japanese police rarely shoot and kill their targets on the spot, it's better to be safe than sorry. What if there are officers like those in the US who have shaky hands and fire their guns at the drop of a hat?

Therefore, if your weapon malfunctions and you are unable to resist or escape, it is best to surrender obediently and avoid doing anything that could cause misunderstanding.

She's still young and doesn't want to die so soon.

Of course, given the bizarre timeline of the Conan world, once she's sent to prison, she probably won't be released for hundreds of years.

"Kaito's actually quite smart!"

Not far away, Kitagawa Yu and Elena were not noticed by anyone because they had used an invisibility spell.

He had originally planned to knock Scrooge unconscious before the police arrived at the manor if they couldn't get there in time, but it seems that's no longer necessary.

Meanwhile, Conan, who rushed back to Tsutenkaku Tower, was completely unaware and unconcerned that Scorpion had been captured. He continued to relentlessly pursue Kaito on his skateboard.

There's no other way; he has to vent his anger today, or he'll suffocate!

"Ahhh-"

"Kid, you dare to impersonate me and flirt with Ran!"
