Thief Game: Starting with Obtaining the Kidd Card

Just then, some of the visitors in the arcade began to stir slightly.

"It's Mr. Zhishui. I never expected to see him make a move today."

"Mr. Shimizu must have come here to challenge that guy Kengo Obō, right?"

"That should be it, otherwise Mr. Zhishui has rarely come here recently."

The people around them were talking in hushed tones, and the man who had just been talking to Xiaolan also glanced over there.

Upon seeing the tall, well-dressed man not far away, he immediately spoke:

"That's him, Mr. Shimizu, who is known as Cup Louis."

Kengo Obō, sitting in front of the fighting game machine, naturally noticed the commotion behind him. A provocative smile played on his lips as he called out to Takayasu Shimizu behind him:

"You've finally arrived! Bring it on! I'm going to smash your head in!"

Hearing what Kengo Oto said, Takaho Shimizu ignored him and simply took out a cigarette from his pocket and put it in his mouth.

"No rush, let me have a smoke first."

"Hehe, whatever."

Kengo Obō spoke without any apparent concern.

Chen Feng and the others, who were not far away, naturally noticed what was happening here.

Seeing the two about to start fighting, Yukiko wasn't interested and casually said, "Let's go first and play another game."

"Yes, that's fine too."

Sonoko and the others nodded in agreement, then turned their gaze to Judy, a regular customer at the arcade, and said:

"Ms. Judy, you know this place so well, why don't you recommend another game for us to play?"

"Um……"

When Judy was called, she put her hand on her chin, glanced around, and finally fixed her gaze on a game console on her right.

"Ah, let's play this, a racing game, it's really fun, I'll teach you."

Judy ran excitedly to the arcade machine, inserted coins, and rubbed her hands together, waiting for the game to start. Her excited expression was exactly like that of a teenage girl addicted to video games.

The others then came up behind Judy to watch her actions.

Chen Feng and Conan walked at the very back.

Chen Feng glanced at Kengo Oto and Takaho Shimizu, who were ready to start the match, then his eyes lit up as if he had thought of something. With a mysterious smile on his face, he squatted down and spoke to Conan, who was still watching him warily:

"Little detective, have you noticed something?"

"What is it?" Conan asked, frowning.

"Hmm... So, it seems like wherever you go, a murder occurs. Do you think you might be the reincarnation of the Grim Reaper? Hmm... Grim Reaper Elementary School Student, how about that title?" Chen Feng said to Conan with a smile.

"boring."

Conan casually made a comment, then stopped following Chen Feng and walked over to Judy to watch her play a racing game.

Meanwhile, Ran was still watching the match between Kengo Obō and Takaho Shimizu on the big screen.

Since both players were very skilled and popular in the arcade, the arcade organizers broadcast their match on a large screen on the wall.

"Who do you think will win, Miss Xiaolan?" Chen Feng stepped forward and asked with a smile.

Hearing the sound, Xiaolan turned her head and glanced at Chen Feng. After thinking for a moment, she said:

"Judging from the current situation, Mr. Kengo Obō should have a better chance of winning."

Chen Feng's gaze also turned towards the direction of the large screen.

Just as Ran had said, Kengo Oto's character almost completely dominated Takaho Shimizu, raining blows of punches and kicks on Shimizu's character, leaving him utterly helpless.

Even the onlookers shook their heads, feeling that Shizumi Takaho's title of "Undefeated Cup House" was somewhat undeserved.

……

Chapter 314 The Death God's Attribute in Action

On the big screen, the match between Kengo Obō and Takayasu Shimizu continues.

Kengo Oto first unleashed a dazzling combo, landing a precise blow on Takaho Shimizu, before quickly activating his ultimate move. With a swift kick from his character, Takaho Shimizu's character was knocked to the ground.

Those around him shook their heads. According to the rules of the game, all that was needed now was for Kengo Oto to step forward and deliver a punch or kick to Takaho Shimizu, who was already on the ground, to win.

But at that moment, something unexpected happened.

Just as Kengo Oto, who had already secured victory, suddenly stopped in his tracks, his entire game character freezing motionless on the screen.

At first glance, onlookers thought that Kengo Oto was going to humiliate Takayasu Shimizu, who had already fallen to the ground, since that was something he often did.

However, soon, someone noticed something was wrong. The game time limit of three minutes was about to expire, but Kengo Oto was still not moving, which made people feel strange.

Soon, the game countdown reached "0" seconds. Since Kengo Obō did not finish off Takaho Shimizu, who had fallen to the ground, the game ended in a "draw".

Seeing the word "Draw" written in large letters on the game interface, many onlookers began to discuss it.

"What's going on? Why has this scoundrel Kengo Obō changed his ways today? He didn't even humiliate Shimizu Takayasu who was lying on the ground."

"No, whether it's humiliating or not is secondary. What I'm more curious about is, since Kengo Oto had already won, why didn't he go for the final punch to win the match? Instead, he waited until the countdown reached zero and it ended in a draw. I don't understand."

"I don't understand either, it's a fixed match!"

People around them were talking about it.

Ran, who had been watching the two's match closely, also realized something was wrong. After glancing at Chen Feng, she slowly walked towards Kengo Oto.

Arriving at the game console, Ran slowly crouched down and looked at Kengo Oto, who was looking down: "Mr. Oto?"

Xiao Lan called out tentatively, but there was no response.

Upon seeing this, Ran frowned, swallowed hard, and reached out to check Kengo Oto's breathing.

"what--"

Xiao Lan's loud shout immediately attracted the attention of the people around her, and many people looked in her direction.

Judy and the others, who were playing racing games, stopped what they were doing and walked over.

"What's wrong, Xiaolan?"

Yukiko asked with concern.

Judy and Sonoko, along with the others, also cast concerned glances their way.

Ran raised a trembling finger and pointed in Kengo Oto's direction: "Mr. Oto... he... he... he's dead!!!"

"What?!!"

Yukiko and the others were all taken aback, and even the onlookers gathered around.

Conan quickly stepped forward and unbuckled the seatbelt on Kengo Oto's gaming chair. Without support, Kengo Oto fell forward and crashed into the game console with a "bang".

"This……"

Sonoko was stunned. Looking at the motionless Kengo Oto, she swallowed hard.

People can die playing games...?

Seeing this, Judy, an FBI agent, frowned slightly, walked slowly to the game machine, and reached out to straighten Kengo Oto's body.

"His complexion was normal, and there were no external injuries. In addition, the deceased did not struggle or shout at all. It is unlikely that the murderer killed him directly when he came into contact with the deceased."

"Could it be some kind of medical condition? Like a heart attack?"

The garden tentatively opened its doors.

Judy shook her head with a serious expression.

"He died of suffocation."

Chen Feng suddenly spoke, drawing everyone's attention: "His complexion is rosy, there are no external injuries, no marks on his neck, and no signs of struggle. He must have been poisoned."

"Poisoned?"

The people present were all taken aback.

Yukiko seemed to have thought of something at that moment: "I remember that some toxins can inhibit the connection between the nervous system and muscles, causing people to suffocate and die in a short period of time."

Judy glanced at Chen Feng with surprise, secretly taking note of him.

Conan, watching Chen Feng's direction, was also quite surprised. He hadn't expected that this thief, who had just jokingly called him the "Death God Elementary School Student," would have caused someone to die in the arcade less than five minutes later. Could it be that he...

Bah! I almost let that thief trick me! What a coincidence! It must be a coincidence! How could I possibly have any death-related attributes?

Conan thought to himself.

Upon seeing that someone had died, bystanders quickly called the police.

Before long, Inspector Megure arrived with a group of officers from the First Investigation Division.

Inspector Megure was visibly taken aback when he saw Yukiko and the others.

I never expected that just after dealing with the assassination of Representative Shigehiko Tomoguchi at the memorial service, I would run into a few people at another crime scene. This is really...

Inspector Megure sighed inwardly.

Behind him, "Chen Feng," disguised as Akemi, was chatting casually with Sato Miwako.

Upon seeing Yukiko and her group again, Akemi secretly glanced around, then exchanged a look with Chen Feng, who was looking at her, and nodded slightly.

"Chen, what are you looking at?"

Sato Miwako asked.

Akemi, however, did not seem flustered. She said, "Oh, I was looking at the deceased's side. Why are there so many cases with the possibility of homicide lately?"

"This is all up to you, great detective."

Miwako Sato chuckled and made a teasing remark.

Akemi smiled slightly as well, without replying.

At the same time, Mingmei felt her phone vibrate slightly in her pocket, which was probably a message from Chen Feng.

Akemi thought to herself.
