Maori Kogoro's daily life in the science harem

The man was wearing a black cloak, and his long red hair was flying in the wind like a cluster of burning flames.

"Koizumi Hongzi?" Kaito frowned slightly, "Why are you here?"

Koizumi Hongzi raised a meaningful smile at the corner of her mouth: "The stars are strange tonight. I predicted that you would be in trouble, so I came to remind you."

Kuroba Kaito sneered: "Trouble? Are you talking about the police? Those guys are not worthy of causing me trouble."

Koizumi Hongzi walked closer slowly, her eyes deep: "No, the trouble I'm talking about is not just the police."

Kuroba Kaito raised an eyebrow: "You are not trying to tell me that I will fail tonight? What a joke."

Koizumi Hongzi walked forward, her long red hair shining strangely in the moonlight, and her green eyes that seemed to be able to see through everything stared at Kaito: "It's not a joke, it's a prophecy."

Her voice was low and firm, as if every word carried some mysterious power.

Kaito was stunned by her serious expression, then he said solemnly: "Hongzi, give me a reason to trust you."

Hongzi was not angry. Instead, she said slowly, "Your father, Kuroba Touichi, didn't believe that he would lose. What happened? He lost his life."

Her voice was neither hurried nor slow, but every word pierced Kaito's heart like a knife.

Kuroba Kaito's smile disappeared instantly, and his expression turned slightly gloomy: "Don't scare me with my father, I'm not him."

Hongzi stared at him, with a hint of regret in her tone: "You are not him, but you are just as proud and overconfident as he is. That's why you will repeat the same mistakes."

"Repeat the same mistake?" Blackfish Kaito sneered, "I am Kaito Kidd, I have never failed, how could I lose to a man?"

Hongzi smiled slightly, and that smile seemed to be full of deep meaning: "There are many ways to lose, not just being caught."

Her voice was gentle but piercing, "This man will make you lose a lot of things. You will lose your confidence, your trust, and even... your most precious freedom."

Even……

Lose woman.

Koizumi Akako was silent for a moment. She did not tell Kuroba Kaito this sentence.

Because she couldn't understand what woman a bachelor like Kuroba Kaito could lose.

Hearing this, Kuroba Kaito frowned more and more. His confidence and pride would not allow anyone to question him, let alone accept such a prophecy.

He snorted softly: "This sounds like a curse, but I don't believe in astrological prophecies. I only trust my mind and my hands."

Hongzi didn't rush to refute, but sighed quietly: "It doesn't matter if you don't believe it, the truth will find you. But by then, you may be powerless to change it."

Kuroba Kaito felt that her words were like a poisonous snake, tightly wrapped around his heart, making him uncomfortable, "I don't believe in fate."

Hongzi shrugged: "You may not believe it, but that doesn't stop it from happening."

Kuroba Kaito took a deep breath and suppressed his unhappiness. He put on his flying wings and dress uniform, and looked towards the Haido Center Hotel in the distance with a firm gaze: "I will prove you wrong."

Hongzi's smile faded a little, but her eyes still revealed some complicated meanings: "I hope so. However, sometimes, knowing the answer may not necessarily change the result."

Kuroba Kaito was too lazy to bother with her any more. He turned around and prepared to take off. A gust of night wind blew by, and his cloak fluttered in the wind like wings.

Before he flew away, he left a confident message: "Don't worry, Hongzi, when I come back with the 'Dark Star', you will know that fate is my toy."

Hongzi stood quietly where she was, without trying to stop him, watching Kaito leap into the night sky, like a white phantom cutting through the night sky.

She shook her head slightly and whispered, "I hope you can come back safely and remember the lesson of tonight."

The cloak fluttered in the air, Kuroba Kaito flew in the dark night sky, and the voice behind him gradually faded away.

However, Koizumi Akako's prediction that "you will fall into the hands of a man" lingered in his heart like a shadow, and could not be shaken off.

Chapter 383 Kuroba Kaito's Provocation

The night breeze on the rooftop was a little cool. Kogoro Mouri stood on the edge, smoking calmly.

The smoke swirled gently around his fingertips, and the moonlight sprinkled on him, enveloping him in a faint halo.

Maori's eyes are like a cunning cheetah. He is patient while waiting for his prey to appear.

On the other side, Nakamori Ginzo was already getting impatient and kept muttering, "What the hell is this lousy detective doing? He said he was going to catch Kaito Kid, but now there's no sign of him!"

He paced back and forth, his annoyance clearly visible on his face. He firmly believed that Kaito Kid would not appear and thought that Maori was just playing tricks.

"Okay, I won't accompany you anymore."

Nakamori cursed under his breath and turned to leave.

At this moment, his walkie-talkie suddenly rang.

"Everyone, please pay attention. Go to Beihu Central Hotel immediately! I repeat, everyone, go to Beihu Central Hotel!"

The voice was crystal clear, and the tone and intonation were exactly Nakamori Ginzo's own.

Nakamori's face changed and he immediately reacted: "Oh no! This is Kaito Kidd! He is imitating my voice!"

He hurriedly picked up the intercom and shouted, "Don't go to Beihu Center Hotel! This is a trap! Everyone stand by, don't move!"

Nakamori shouted as he ran towards the stairs in a rage.

He cursed, "Damn Maori Kogoro, he really made a mistake! The thief is not here at all!"

He walked hurriedly, his iron tower-like body running quickly on the stairs, and his heels hitting the steps made a dull sound.

However, when Nakamori's figure disappeared in the stairwell, Kogoro Mori just stood there, sneered, threw the cigarette butt on the ground, and crushed it gently with the tip of his shoe.

He raised his head and looked up at the night sky slightly, his eyes as sharp as a knife.

"Okay, stop hiding. I know you're here."

Maori's voice was calm, yet it revealed an unquestionable confidence.

He tilted his head slightly, a faint smile on his lips: "Your breathing is as loud as thunder. Come out, Kaito Kidd."

As soon as he finished speaking, the moonlight was suddenly cut by a white figure.

In the shadows on the rooftop, a man in a white suit, a top hat and a monocle slowly emerged. It was Kaito Kuroba, the Kaito Kid.

He stood lightly in the moonlight, like an actor in the center of the stage, his movements graceful and calm.

The cloak rustled in the wind. He raised the corner of his mouth slightly and looked at Mao Li with a half-smile: "As expected of a famous detective, you saw through me."

Maori looked at him quietly, his expression unchanged, and just took out a cigarette from his pocket and lit it casually.

The firelight briefly shone in his eyes, then disappeared in the smoke. He said calmly, "Do you think your little trick can fool me?"

Kuroba Kaito wanted to make a few jokes, but when he saw Maori so close to him, he was speechless for a moment.

He originally thought that Kogoro Mori was just a drunk middle-aged uncle, but the man in front of him completely exceeded his expectations.

Kogoro Mori has deep facial features, sharp eyebrows and bright eyes, and the faint smile at the corner of his mouth adds to his mature man's charm.

He stood there, his shoulders straight, tall, his every move showing calmness and confidence.

Kuroba Kaito's heart sank slightly: "Why is this guy... so handsome?"

He never thought that there would be a moment when he would be suppressed in momentum, especially in front of a man who was obviously older than him.

He quietly adjusted his breathing and tried to calm himself down, but the subtle feeling of discomfort in his heart lingered.

He rarely felt this way - as if he was facing an unshakable mountain.

Maori exhaled a puff of smoke lightly, and his eyes fell lightly on Kuroba Kaito, as if he was looking at a naughty child.

His voice was still calm and composed: "What? Are you stunned? Are you ready to surrender, or do you think you can still get out of here unscathed?"

Kuroba Kaito pursed his lips and raised his usual confident smile again: "Mr. Maori, I am Kaito Kidd, and I have never failed."

Maori snorted, a hint of smile in his eyes: "Really? So how are you going to escape tonight?"

Kuroba Kaito felt his heart skip a beat. This man's eyes seemed to have seen through everything, leaving no room for retreat.

He was clearly standing there motionless, but he gave people an invisible sense of oppression that could not be easily ignored.

The wind blew over the rooftop, and Kuroba Kaito's cape fluttered in the wind. He whispered to himself, "Humph... No matter how smart you are, I won't lose."

Mao Li smiled, with an unspoken certainty in his smile: "We'll wait and see."

The two men confronted each other under the moonlight, one was a phantom-like thief wearing a snow-white suit, and the other was a calm and collected famous detective like a hunter.

Kuroba Kaito stood in the wind, trying to maintain a confident expression. The corners of his mouth slightly raised, with a bit of teasing and provocation in his eyes, he looked at Maori Kogoro in front of him: "It's amazing that you can figure out my code and find this place. But - you definitely didn't guess..."

However, before he could finish his words, Maori Kogoro smiled slightly, his expression calm as usual, and interrupted him: "Aprilfool - Happy April Fool's Day."

Kuroba Kaito was slightly stunned, with a hint of surprise in his eyes. He didn't expect that Maori not only cracked his plan in advance, but also could analyze the meaning of the preview letter so thoroughly.

Mao Li looked at him and continued with a half-smile: "You put 'aprilfool' in the notice letter not only to remind yourself to act on April Fool's Day, but also has a double meaning. First, of course, it implies that you plan to steal on this day. Second, if you fail, this sentence can also be used as an excuse to give you a decent excuse. You can say that this is just an April Fool's joke and you can act next time."

Kuroba Kaito was speechless for a moment, secretly marveling at Maori's sharpness and insight. The man in front of him saw through his carefully designed code at a glance, and he felt as if everything was under the control of the other party, which made him feel a little uncomfortable.

He put away his contempt in his heart, and said with a little respect: "As expected of the famous detective Maori Kogoro, you are really amazing. But..." Kuroba Kaito put on that confident smile again, and his tone was full of provocation: "Even if you see through everything about me, can you stop me from taking action?"

Maori couldn't help but chuckle, the corners of his mouth curved upwards, as if what Kuroba Kaito said made him feel a little ridiculous. He raised his head, the moonlight reflected in his deep eyes, revealing a bit of playfulness: "Stop you? You can try and see if you can fly from me to the museum."

Chapter 384: Non-Human Maori Kogoro

Kuroba Kaito was young and full of energy, and the spirit of not admitting defeat immediately surged up in his heart. As Kaito Kidd, he had confidence and means. Maori's relaxed and casual look made him feel despised. He sneered, shook his shoulders, and his eyes darkened: "Okay, then I won't be polite."

After saying that, he quickly pulled out the playing cards in his hand and swung them violently. Several cards flew towards Mao Li like sharp blades. At the same time, he quickly exerted force on his feet, using magic props and agility to prepare to break through Mao Li from the side. He had already calculated Mao Li's possible reaction, using the playing cards to interfere with the opponent's vision, and waiting for an opportunity to bypass him from the side.

However, Maori Kogoro was not panicked at all. He just slightly turned sideways to avoid the flying poker cards, and his movements were as natural as flowing water. And Kuroba Kaito's sprint route was completely blocked by his inadvertent moves.

Kuroba Kaito was acutely aware that something was wrong and immediately adjusted his direction, but Maori always appeared one step ahead of him on his path. No matter what tricks he used, Maori was like an invisible wall, blocking all his escape routes. Even if he used magic props to create smoke and illusions, Maori seemed to know his tricks well and was not moved at all.

Sweat began to seep out of Kuroba Kaito's forehead. He kept changing the angle and rhythm, but no matter how he tried, Maori always appeared in front of him in a seemingly random but extremely precise way.

At this time, Mao Li's voice came faintly, with a hint of teasing: "What? Is this all you can do? Didn't you say you wanted to give it a try?"

Kuroba Kaito stopped moving, narrowed his eyes slightly, and felt a sense of defeat in his heart. He realized that the man in front of him was not just a detective, his physical fitness and fighting skills were far beyond ordinary people. Even if he had more magic props, they would be completely useless in this confrontation.

"You..." Kuroba Kaito panted, looking at Maori with complicated eyes, unable to speak for a long time. He thought that with his speed and skills, he could easily escape from Maori. However, the facts slapped him in the face.

Maori chuckled when he saw this, flicked his cigarette butt on the ground, and said lazily: "You are still too young, Kaito Kid." He looked up at Kuroba Kaito with deep and confident eyes: "Go back. You can't succeed today."

Kuroba Kaito took a deep breath and tried to calm his emotions. He knew that what Maori said was right. Tonight's plan had completely failed. Continuing to entangle would only increase unnecessary risks.

"Okay, Detective." Kuroba Kaito shrugged helplessly and forced a bitter smile: "It seems that I lose this time."

Mao Li gave a meaningful smile: "Remember, young man. Some people in this world are not easy to deal with."

Kuroba Kaito nodded silently. Although he was unwilling in his heart, he had to admit Maori's strength. He turned lightly, and his white cloak fluttered in the wind, like a white bird about to disappear in the night.

"But I will definitely win next time." Kuroba Kaito said this without looking back, then jumped down and flew into the night sky with the help of a hang glider.

Mao Li looked at his receding figure, a hint of smile flashed in his eyes. He whispered to himself: "Young man..."

He called Ginzo Nakamori from the rooftop.

"Hey, Kaito Kidd won't be coming today. I've forced him to retreat."

After saying this, Maori jumped down from the roof before Nakamori Ginzo could react, and used the protruding space between the buildings to rush towards the direction where Kuroba Kaito was flying.

……

Kuroba Kaito returned home in frustration, took off his white suit of Kaito Kid, and threw his hat aside, as if he wanted to throw away the bad luck of the night.

His fingers unbuttoned his collar and he sighed depressedly.

He has always had absolute confidence in his abilities, but tonight's confrontation with Kogoro Mori made him realize what the real gap in strength is.

Just as he sat on the sofa and rubbed his temple, Terai Huang Zhisuke opened the door with a surprised look on his face: "Master Kuroba? Why are you back so soon?"

Hearing this, Kuroba Kaito felt even more embarrassed. He waved his hand and said impatiently, "Don't ask, Grandpa Terai."

His tone revealed an unprecedented sense of frustration, which was a fatal blow to the confident thief.

Just when Terai Huang Zhisuke wanted to say a few more words of comfort, Kuroba Kaito suddenly felt a strange chill coming from behind.

At that moment, all the hairs on his body stood up, and his intuition told him that something was wrong.

"I never thought that Kaito Kidd is actually a high school student." A familiar and calm voice came slowly from behind Kuroba Kaito.

Kuroba Kaito's heart suddenly shrank, and he froze in place as if struck by lightning. He turned his head sharply, and his pupils instantly dilated.

I saw Kogoro Mouri standing at the door of the balcony. He jumped in from the window easily and landed as gracefully and steadily as a wild beast.

"You, you..." Kuroba Kaito's lips trembled slightly, his face full of disbelief.

He took a step back in horror, almost collapsing.

Kogoro Mori actually caught up with him!

He clearly flew home on a hang glider, so it was impossible that this man actually ran all the way between the tall buildings and arrived here right after him!

There was no extra emotion in Maori's eyes, he just looked at Kuroba Kaito calmly: "What you are thinking is written on your face. You can't expect it, right?" His voice was calm, but there was an invisible sense of oppression.
