He slowly lowered his raised hand, his expression becoming more serious.
"That makes sense. Let's be careful."
"Ah."
"it is good."
Just as the group was talking, Chen Feng, disguised as "Sato Miwako," returned and sat back down in front of the monitor.
Seeing that only Miwako had returned, Miyamoto Yumi couldn't help but ask in confusion, "Miwako, why did you come back alone? Where is Yukiko?"
Yumi's voice wasn't quiet, and it also attracted the attention of Shinichi Kudo and the others.
In particular, Shinichi Kudo, upon hearing his mother's name, quickly looked over and surveyed the surroundings. Sure enough, he found that only Miwako Sato had returned, while his mother was nowhere to be seen.
"Oh, Ms. Yukiko."
"Sato Miwako" glanced casually in the direction of Kudo Shinichi, then spoke:
"She took a phone call and left, saying she was going to find a place to hide, not wanting someone to find him so quickly, and wanting him to worry for a few more days."
"what?"
Miyamoto Yumi's mouth was slightly open, and she was stunned for two seconds before she came to her senses.
Upon hearing this, Shinichi Kudo, who was not far away, twitched at the corner of his mouth.
That's... just like something my mom would do...
"Hey! Yumi! And Miwako! Focus on your work! Don't talk about things unrelated to work!"
Upon hearing Inspector Megure's voice, Yumi Miyamoto immediately composed herself and apologized, "I'm sorry, Inspector, it won't happen again."
As she spoke, Yumi sat up straight again, and didn't forget to pull "Miwako" up with her so that she could sit up straight as well.
What she didn't notice was that "Miwako" sitting next to her had somehow inserted a small gadget into the monitor's controller and then quickly unplugged it a few seconds later.
Time continues to pass.
Before we knew it, it was already 9:20 pm.
"Ten minutes left..."
Shinichi Kudo muttered to himself, while his eyes scanned his surroundings warily, but he did not find anything unusual.
Everyone else was also very nervous, paying close attention to their surroundings, afraid that they might let Kidd escape if they were not careful.
Just then, Yumi Miyamoto, who had been watching the surveillance footage, suddenly noticed a flash on the screen, followed by a white figure that appeared abruptly and then disappeared again.
"This……"
Miyamoto Yumi was only briefly taken aback for half a second before she immediately stood up to report.
"Report: An anomaly has been detected in the surveillance footage of area six!"
"Area Six?!"
Upon hearing this, Officer Nakamori quickly walked to the monitor.
Sure enough, a figure dressed in white, wearing a white hat and a white cloak was seen quickly moving along the path in area 6.
Without hesitation, he immediately picked up the walkie-talkie: "Attention all units! Attention all units! Phantom Thief Kid has been spotted! Current location: Area 6!"
Teams three and four shall immediately proceed to area 6 to make the arrest; the remaining teams shall remain in place.
"Squad 3 received."
"Squad 4 received."
Officer Nakamori gave the order quickly.
Shinichi Kudo, standing not far away, frowned slightly.
There are less than 10 minutes left until the announcement time. What is Kaito Kid doing outside?
Just as he was deep in thought, Inspector Nakamori had already gathered his equipment and, looking excited, spoke to Inspector Megure:
"Megure, you stay here and continue commanding. I'm going to personally lead a group to meet that guy!"
"it is good……"
"and many more!"
Shinichi Kudo suddenly spoke up, immediately drawing everyone's attention.
Shinichi Kudo spoke with a serious expression:
“Inspector Nakamori, Inspector Megure, there are less than 10 minutes left before the deadline for the notice. Our main task now is to protect the Ring of Amoeite from being stolen. You have already sent out two squads. If you send out more people, I'm afraid we won't have enough manpower here.”
"Ok?"
Upon hearing this, Inspector Nakamori and Inspector Megure exchanged a glance.
Inspector Megure frowned and said, "Does Kudo mean that Kid is deliberately trying to get us to send people out to reduce our staff at the museum?"
"That possibility cannot be ruled out," Shinichi Kudo replied with a nod.
"Um……"
Officer Nakamori seemed to agree, nodding with a furrowed brow. He didn't insist further, but instead put down the equipment he had been carrying and returned to his original position to continue waiting.
Three minutes left...
Shinichi Kudo glanced at his watch and thought to himself.
Of course, no one saw that "Sato Miwako," who had been sitting in front of the monitor, glanced back at them, a mysterious smile playing on her lips before quickly covering it up.
The second hand moved its position little by little.
Inside the vast museum, more than twenty police officers from the Metropolitan Police Department held their breath, not daring to make a sound.
Two minutes...
One minute……
Thirty seconds...
ten seconds...
Time shifts.
Everyone present was on high alert, carefully observing their surroundings and not wanting to miss any detail.
three seconds...
Two seconds...
One second!!!
Almost the instant the second hand pointed to "12", all the lights in the stadium went out with a "snap"!
"What's going on!"
"Don't panic! Turn on the backup power immediately!"
"Everyone, immediately turn on all available lighting equipment and take precautions to protect the Ring of Amoet!"
Inspector Nakamori and Inspector Megure reacted quickly and maintained order at the scene.
Shinichi Kudo reacted quickly, turning on his small flashlight almost instantly and rushing toward the glass display case in the center where the Ring of Amoeite was kept.
But before he could even take two steps...
Then a loud "bang" of steel hitting the ground came from ahead.
The mechanism has been triggered!
This was everyone's first reaction.
Just then, the backup power came on, and the lights dispelled the darkness in the museum, bringing light to everyone present.
"We've caught Phantom Thief Kid!"
An excited shout rang out, instantly drawing everyone's attention.
Shinichi Kudo was no exception.
Looking towards the center, one can see that the previously prepared mechanism in front of where the Ring of Amoait is stored has been triggered, and a specially made iron cage has appeared on the ground.
Inside the iron cage, a white figure was trapped!
It's none other than Kaito Kid!
"We've captured Phantom Thief Kid!"
Another excited shout rang out, and then almost everyone joined in the shouting.
"it is good!"
"Fantastic! Kidd's been caught!"
"We never expected that we would catch the notorious thief who had repeatedly outmaneuvered the FBI!"
"Great!"
……
Chapter 207 The Overlooked Points
Upon seeing the white figure in the iron cage that matched the one in the online video, the crowd cheered and celebrated.
Inspector Nakamori couldn't help but raise his head and smile: "Kaito Kid, is he really that bad!"
Only Shinichi Kudo frowned slightly.
That's it...? The legendary American thief Kid was just caught like that? That's way too easy!
Before he could think any further, a hand was already on his shoulder.
Shinichi Kudo turned his head and met Inspector Megure's eyes, which were narrowed to slits by his smile:
"Brother Kudo, thank you for your hard work this time. I will report everything you did to help us deduce the timing of Kid's announcement and improve security. You will receive all the rewards you deserve."
The reward Inspector Megure mentioned was naturally the bounty on the international wanted poster issued by the United States, currently valued at 100 million US dollars. Even if he could only receive a portion of it, it would still be a considerable sum.
However, Shinichi Kudo, who has never lacked money since childhood, clearly doesn't care about this.
