Huh? Judy?
Too emotional.
It is easy to make trouble at critical moments.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have told her the news of faking his death to help Kiel return to the organization.
It's okay at other times, but once it involves herself or Vermouth, Judy's thought process will suddenly become unpredictable.
As for Kamal... I can only say that those who understand will understand.
To this day, Shuichi Akai still cannot understand why Kamal was able to join the FBI.
……
"Ryoma Exhibition?" Taichi raised his eyebrows as he looked at the five tickets handed over by Shinjima.
"Yes, it was sent by my sister's colleague." Shinjima nodded helplessly and replied, "It seems that he intends to use 'Ryoma' to persuade my sister to withdraw her resignation."
"But why are there five?" Taichi looked at Shinjima in confusion and asked.
"Actually, there are seven. My sister planned to take me to see them, and these are the extra five." Shinjima explained, "As for why there are five extra ones, I don't understand."
"Didn't you ask the person who delivered the ticket?" Taiyi looked at the contents on the ticket with interest and asked.
"Actually, the tickets were delivered in the morning, and the person lost contact in the afternoon." Shinjima shrugged helplessly and explained.
"It sounds bad." Kaihime, who came to take over the shift, took a ticket and looked at it for a few seconds before looking at Taichi and Niijima Makoto and said, "Is there some conspiracy?"
"Uh, who is this..." Shin Niijima asked as he looked at Princess Kai, whom he met for the first time, and the strange woman standing on the other side behind Taichi.
"Like Taki and Rachel, they are my wives in the new country." Taiyi introduced them after distributing the tickets. "The one you are talking to is Kaihime... If you are interested in history, you may have seen her name in the late Warring States period of Japan."
"Ah... I remember, it was the one in the battle of Shinobi Castle..." Shinjima showed a 'numb' expression, "but she..."
Wasn't she Toyotomi Hideyoshi's concubine?
This is roughly what was revealed in Niijima's eyes.
"The one behind me is Chai Xianghua, who is from the same generation as Duo Xi."
"Nice to meet you. I'm Makoto Niijima." Makoto Niijima greeted the two politely.
"Just call me Kai." Princess Kai responded enthusiastically.
"As Your Majesty said, Chai Xianghua. You can call me Sister Chai." Although she may not be as old as Niijima Makoto, Chai Xianghua still tried to add some weight to herself.
"Come to think of it, I've wanted to ask for a long time, what era did Sister Chai and Taki live in?" Because of Taki's ninja attributes, Shinjima had basically no chance to talk to her, but she had almost found out about Rachel's origins.
"Probably during the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty. From the 16th to the 17th century." Taiyi replied.
Shinjima paused for a moment, then shrank his neck.
Well, because that period was also the peak period when Japanese pirates wreaked havoc along the coast of the Ming Dynasty.
Niijima couldn't stand up straight anymore.
"The New Country really has people from all periods... I'm beginning to look forward to the day when I can go to the New Country with my sister." Niijima Makoto said dryly.
"It's really outrageous." Kaihime agreed with what Niijima Makoto said, "Even Himiko has it."
"Ah? Is this true?" Niijima was dumbfounded.
Although Taichi has a personality mask of Himiko, the real Himiko... To be honest, Niijima is really interested in meeting her.
"Don't think about it. That naughty kid Himiko has nothing to do with this world." Taiyi saw what Niijima was thinking and reminded him, "Although I don't know what happened in Himiko's native world, I think it is very different from the orthodox history."
"You guys are really going off topic." Xin Tiao Qian suddenly reminded, "Does anyone remember that the topic we discussed at the beginning was the person who gave away the tickets? And whether there was a conspiracy between them?"
“I remember.” Chai Xianghua raised her hand and answered, “And I was the one who proposed the conspiracy theory.”
"In short, what are your plans?" Akane Shinjo looked at Shinjima and asked.
"Listen to Taichi." Shinjima replied, "Isn't my sister being hunted by someone? So if Taichi suggests that we go, then we will go. If he suggests that we don't go, then my sister and I will stay at home and not go out."
Chapter 127 Why Did Koizumi Hongzi Come to Visit?
"Ah, Kaito Kid?" Holding the ticket in his hand, Taichi looked at Shinjo Akane with some surprise.
"Well, we were in Hakone before, so we didn't see any news reports." Shinjo Akane nodded and replied as she looked at the content on her phone. "Everyone in the Tokyo Phantom Thieves did see it, but we didn't have much interest in Kaito Kid, so we didn't discuss the relevant content."
"Makoto had asked everyone in the Phantom Thieves group if anyone wanted to go to the Ryoma exhibition, but everyone declined for their own reasons," Shinjo Akane added. "It was at this time that some people started discussing that Kaito Kid had sent a notice for this Ryoma exhibition... but it seemed that it was not a theft, but a return."
"Return...Ryoma." Taichi felt like he had some impression, but not much.
Taichi felt that the same situation should be true for Akane Shinjo.
Otherwise, she should have reacted when the tickets were really delivered.
After all, it doesn't involve the main plot...
"Ah, I remember now!" Just when Taichi thought his guess was correct, Shinjo Akane suddenly clapped her hands, "It was this Ryoma exhibition, because it explained the relationship between Kaito Kid and Kaito Lady, so I still have some impression of it."
“It’s really the aftertaste of the mother group.”
"By the way, I remember that the 'protagonist' of this Longma exhibition seems to be a replica, and a mass-produced replica at that."
"Sometimes when it comes to incidents involving phantom thieves, without considering the laws and regulations, it's hard to tell who is good and who is evil."
"Ah, there are new rumors on the Internet."
Shinjo Akane held her cell phone in front of Taichi.
"It is said that Kaito Kidd will be returning the items at 8 o'clock tomorrow night. Taichi, should we go at this time? It will be fun to scare Kaito Kidd, that guy who likes to show off!"
Xin Tiao Qian looked eager to try.
"Well, since there's nothing important to do, I might as well go and join in the fun." Taichi touched his chin and nodded, "Besides, to be honest, I'm quite curious about the 'relationship' between Kaito Kidd and the Kudo family."
"Once, Yusaku Kudo almost faced off against the first-generation Kaito Kid, but in the end he faced off against the then-young Shinichi Kudo and Touichi Kuroba."
"And Kudo Shinichi is honored to be the naming father of 'Kaito Kid'."
"Then, I just asked Himiko to do some divination. Although the divination result did not clearly state the exact relationship between the two, it showed that the two parties were related by blood."
"...Then wouldn't Okita Souji in Kyoto also..." Shinjo Akane's mouth twitched as she reminded him, "Don't forget, there is another Okita Souji in Kyoto who looks exactly like Kudo Shinichi and Kuroba Kaito."
“We have to go and get this gossip…” Taiyi looked up towards the sky before he finished speaking.
"Someone came uninvited."
"Then why are you looking up at the ceiling?" Shinjo Akane looked at Taichi in confusion and asked, "There can't be a thief who can get in by getting past the defenses of Shiba Kaka, Kaihime, and Mordred, right?"
"But the other party was flying here from the air." Taiyi shrugged and replied helplessly.
"Flying...ah, could it be..." Thinking of the topic she had just discussed with Taichi, Akane Shinjo looked in the direction of Taichi's gaze with a little surprise, "Didn't they say that the setting of the witch Hongzi is inconsistent with the setting of Conan Hongzi? How come Hongzi in the world view of science can also fly with a broom?"
"I can only say that the scientific worldview, which is a mixture of several worldviews, is no longer stable." Taiyi curled his lips and said, "Hongzi's ability to use magic doesn't seem so outstanding anymore."
"I just don't know what the difference is between Hongzi in this world view and Hongzi in the Magic Kaito world view in terms of magic training."
"In that worldview, Hongzi can even use magic like time stop... although the process required for the magic needs to be well-planned in advance."
Taichi placed his hand on his forehead and tapped it gently.
"Hemihu——"
The power of the personality mask instantly merged into Taichi's limbs.
Although Taichi doesn't have a 'Caster' at hand, he still has Himiko, a 'shrine maiden' who can use ghost arts and divination.
"Kai, Xianghua, don't do anything. Mordred, hide in the dark for now and wait for my signal." Taiyi gave orders to the guards around him.
Taichi brought Akane Shinjo, Princess Kai and Xianghua who had come to meet them, to the courtyard and waited quietly for the small black dot on the edge of the moon to land.
"I'm just curious about one thing." Looking at the black dot that was gradually getting bigger in her sight, Akane Shinjo couldn't help but complain, "Is it that when a witch is flying on a broom, there is always an inherent property that 'no matter which direction you look from, you can always see the moon following me'?"
"...Maybe it's a custom?" Taiyi was also quite curious about this and decided to ask Koizumi Hongzi after she came down.
When Koizumi Hongzi landed on the broom, Taichi's brows immediately raised.
There is a golden snake carving on Koizumi Hongzi's forehead and shoulders.
The outfit is bold and cool.
But this is the other party's orthodox attire as a witch.
"Red Witch, I wonder what brings you here uninvited." Taiyi asked as soon as the other party's feet touched the ground.
"Please don't misunderstand me. I have no ill intentions." Koizumi Hongzi looked around and stopped her gaze on Taichi. Then she knelt on one knee respectfully to show her humility. "The King of Magic from a foreign country, the Savior of the world."
"I, the heir of the Red Magic, Koizumi Akaneko, offer you the divination crystal in the hope that you will not embarrass Kidd tomorrow."
In Koizumi Hongzi's hands, she was holding a crystal ball that was shining brightly under the moonlight.
What use is this thing to me?
Taichi was about to ask when he was interrupted by Himiko who suddenly exclaimed in surprise during the meeting in his mind.
[“That crystal ball can enhance my divination ability! In other words, I have never seen a magic item that can better highlight my abilities than this thing!”]
"You get up first and tell me, what is the standard for the 'difficulty' you mention?" Taiyi's eyes lit up and he asked, staring at the crystal ball in Koizumi Hongzi's hand.
With this crystal ball, Himiko might be able to guess where the Shadow Mage is hiding.
So don't say that Koizumi Akako is only here to support Kuroba Kaito. Even if she asks Taichi to help support that naughty kid, he will do it!
"I just hope you and your friends won't take action." Koizumi Hongzi's tone was very humble.
This also made Taiyi curious about what she had predicted before, which made her so cautious.
Chapter 128 Edogawa Conan: You Don't Have to Love Me, Just Stay Away
After leaving the crystal ball, Koizumi Hongzi left without saying a word.
Taichi brought the crystal ball back into the room and sat around it with Akane Shinjo, Shiba Kaka, Princess Kai and Mordred, carefully observing the crystal ball.
"How do I use this thing?" Taiyi tapped his forehead and muttered.
[“Give me some time to study it carefully!” Himiko responded energetically, “After all, this is the first time I’ve come into contact with a crystal ball.”]
Come to think of it, divination with a crystal ball seems to be a Western magic...but Himiko is a traditional Japanese Shinto magic.
It would probably take a while to figure out how the crystal ball works.
[“I’ll help too,” Axe reminded, “I’ll collect all the knowledge related to ‘divination’ and ‘crystal ball’.”]
[“In any case, it’s best to carry the crystal ball with you during this period. Maybe one day I’ll have a flash of inspiration and it will be able to inspire me.” Himiko added.]
As for asking Koizumi Hongzi directly.
The power systems are different, so it’s useless to ask.
Therefore, the newly purchased crystal ball can only be kept in the box for the time being.
Watching the scene where the crystal ball was recorded by Taichi's mobile phone, Kaihime clapped with emotion.
She had seen this cell phone from Mrs. Yukinoshita before, but there was no way to store the thing inside hers.
As for finding out how this thing collected the objects and where it was stored, she had no idea at all.
Since arriving in the other world, there have been too many things that she cannot understand, and she has learned when to give up thinking.
Just like now.
……
As dusk approached, the rain began to fall heavily.
There are still three hours left until the time marked by Kaito Kid on the preview letter.
But Taiyi smelled a "murderous" atmosphere from the huge crowd.
Well, okay, actually Himiko did a divination before going out this time.
Although the crystal ball was still not activated, Himiko predicted the possibility of being assassinated when she went out this time.
Of course, the target of the assassination was Niijima Sae.
And the person who came to assassinate me...I don’t know.
After all, the words Himiko used to describe the assassin were quite vague.
She is not very good at summarizing the characteristics of a person's appearance.
