Anime, but the Phantom Thieves of Heart

"Then why do you make such a judgment?"

"intuition!"

Compared with his previous implicit expression, Nakamori Ginzo was extremely decisive at this time.

The other party's frank attitude surprised Fei Niao Dagui and he couldn't help rubbing his eyebrows.

"I can't file a report based on your claims... Let's not spread this for now. Wait until we find more evidence."

It seems that Daiki Asuka stopped Ginzo Nakamori, but on the other hand, doesn't it also imply that the other party can continue investigating in this direction?

I have thought about it and led the three prayers.

After hearing what Daiki Asuka said, Ginzo Nakamori couldn't help but let out a breath. It was obvious that it took a certain amount of courage to make such a statement, but as expected, Daiki Asuka, who also debuted with "Catch the Phantom Thieves", could understand him!

Ginzo Nakamori, who was sitting down, was in a good mood, and Juzo Megure, who was representing the Investigation Division, also stood up.

"We're investigating several 'Phantom Thief Cases' together. While we haven't identified the 'Phantom Thief', we've found some clues..."

As he spoke, Megure Juzo gestured to Higashikata Josuke to distribute the information to everyone.

"According to statistics, the targets of the 'Phantom Thieves' have several things in common. First, they are all 'suspects' in different cases. Second, they all voluntarily surrendered themselves for 'unknown reasons' shortly after receiving the 'warning letter'. Based on this, we have a few theories."

"First, the Phantom Thieves of Hearts consisted of several members who chose to attack their target at the same time. However, due to the differences in the targets themselves, the timing of their attacks varied."

"Secondly, based on interviews with psychologists from the Nakamori Police Force, we suspected there might be a 'trigger' for these 'targets' sudden confessions. So, we sent someone to examine the 'warning letters,' but professional inspections revealed no traces of any special chemicals on them, and the paper itself wasn't particularly special, so we couldn't trace their source."

"As for the 'gold coins' affixed to the inside of the notice, they've been authenticated and are all 99.99% pure gold. They're not used, but must have been newly minted. This proves that the 'Phantom Thieves of Hearts' are definitely not ordinary thieves. After all, minting gold coins is no simple task."

Having said this, Megure Jusan paused for a moment before speaking again.

"From this, it's clear that the 'Phantom Thieves of Hearts' are not short of financial resources. Their reason for becoming 'Phantom Thieves' probably has nothing to do with money. I even suspect they don't care about money at all, otherwise they wouldn't use 'gold coins' as a token."

Megure Jusan's guess was not wrong. Lan Ke did not become a "Phantom Thief" for money, and he even put his own money into it. But saying that Lan Ke did not care about money was "malicious speculation". Now every time Lan Ke opened his wallet, he would unconsciously widen his eyes, as if he was afraid that he would miss out on money.

It’s a pity that no matter how wide your eyes open, the money in your wallet will not increase. Instead, it will decrease rapidly at an incredible speed.

Megure Juzo, who didn't know any of this, just continued to talk about their investigation based on the information.

"In addition, we have also consulted experts to identify the pattern on the gold coin. It does not belong to any known ancient Japanese currency. However, an expert in the occult suspects that the pattern may involve 'devil worship'."

It was obvious that the Investigation Division was planning to use the 'gold coins' as a breakthrough point. Obviously, in their view, since the 'Phantom Thieves of Hearts' used the gold coins as a mark, it must have symbolic meaning.

The most troublesome of all cases are those "impulsive crimes without any reason" because it is difficult to find clues. Crimes committed by high-IQ criminals are generally more troublesome, but there is never a lack of clues.

Besides being meaningless, the Investigation Division defines the 'Phantom Thieves of Hearts' as the second category.

It’s a pity that there are too few clues and the time is too short, so they can’t find more clues for a while, and Megure Jusan is quite helpless about this.

Although the crime-solving rate of the "Investigation Section 1" is not very high, this is because there are too many cases and too few police officers. They have to focus their energy on more important cases. In contrast, the crime-solving rate of major cases is actually not low. After all, if they really cannot solve the problem, they can also choose to seek "external assistance", such as a detective novel author.

But this time, no clues were found at the scene, and the target could not provide any useful information.

Megure Jusan just felt as if he had walked into a maze, and was thrown directly into the center of the maze with no clues.

After hearing Megure Jusan's answer, Asuka Daiki put his hand back again, which was about to be put down.

Although Megure Juzo said a lot of things, he only did some simple "elimination process" and did not make any breakthrough in the case.

Anyone else might have started to get impatient, but since he had fought with his old... ahem, 'Saint Girl' before, he knew very well that these phantom thieves basically had a 'unique skill', and they paid more attention to 'being weird' than 'stealing'.

So don't be impatient.

So instead of urging everyone, he nodded at everyone and affirmed their hard work.

"Very good. The Phantom Thieves of Hearts are a relatively new group of thieves, after all. It's great that you've found so many clues in such a short time. However, we're still a long way from catching them. Please keep up the good work!"

Asuka Daiki didn't say much, but his words made everyone present feel relieved and also boosted their morale.

The treatment of Japanese police, especially grassroots police, is not that good. Those who are willing to do this job either hope to climb up the ladder or have some ideals and pursuits. They are not afraid of hardship or fatigue, but they are afraid that their efforts will not be recognized. Now the superiors not only understand their difficulties, but also cheer them up and encourage them. Everyone can't wait to capture the "Phantom Thieves of Hearts" on the spot!

Seeing that the scene, which had been somewhat depressing due to the poor progress, had regained its enthusiasm, Asuka Daiki nodded silently in his heart.

It is obvious that as an outstanding policeman who has a good background but has worked his way up to his current position step by step from the front line, Asuka Daiki knows very well how to mobilize the emotions of the crowd.

Then Asuka Daiki announced the end of the meeting and everyone went back to their work.

The people who filed out also rushed to their own offices or work locations. Tonight was destined to be another 'sleepless night'.

After everyone left, Asuka Daigui drove directly home.

"Click~"

As the door locked, a figure rushed out from the living room.

"Dagui~!"

Accompanied by a burst of cheers, Fei Niao Daigui opened his arms helplessly and hugged the other person in his arms. However, the corners of his mouth that kept turning up were enough to show that he was in a good mood, but he would definitely not admit it.

"Mei, didn't I tell you to go to bed early? There's no need to wait for me?"

"It doesn't matter~ After all, Dagui, you know that night is my home ground~"

If someone who didn't know the other person's true identity heard what he said, they would just think he was racing, but Asuka Daigui knew it very well, and the expression on his face became even more helpless.

"Is this kind of thing something you can talk about?"

"It's just the two of us at home, it's okay~"

Looking at his wife, who was about the same age as him but still retained the cuteness of a girl, Asuka Daigui sighed at his luck while taking off his coat and handing it to her, asking her to hang it up for him.

When he came to the living room, the other party also came over with the midnight snack prepared in advance.

Due to work reasons, the couple are rarely together, but their relationship has always been good. Asuka Daiki rarely talks about work at home because of his guilt towards his wife, but this time the matter involves a lot of things and may even cause a shock to the entire Japanese political arena. After considering for a moment, he decided to speak up.

"Meimei..."

"What's wrong? You look so serious?"

"Are you connected to the Phantom Thieves of Hearts?"

With Asuka Daiki's words, the atmosphere in the room instantly became stagnant, but Haneda Meimi... no, now it should be called Asuka Meimi, but she was not angry, but just shook her head.

"I don't know either. Actually, I'm a little curious about the 'Phantom Thieves of Hearts', so I asked my friends about it. Out of curiosity, 'Kaito Kidd' also went to the scene that night, but he was eventually ditched..."

Hearing 'Kaito Kidd', Asuka Daiki's lips moved. It was obvious that he was also full of curiosity about this Kaito who had disappeared for many years. But when he saw his wife making an 'X' shape with her index finger in front of her mouth, he knew that no matter how he asked, she would not tell him, so he didn't say anything more.

Mei Hazuka, the former 'Phantom Thief St. Tail', or simply the 'Saint Girl', after her true identity was discovered by Daiki Asuka, the two young boys and girls who had a crush on each other confessed their love to each other under this special circumstance, and finally became lovers and entered the marriage hall.

Afterwards, the 'Phantom Thief St. Tail' disappeared without a trace. From a certain perspective, the ordinary people's guess was not wrong, because the 'Phantom Thief St. Tail' was indeed 'caught' by the police, but the police officer Daiki Asuka chose to remain silent for the first and only time in his life and sheltered him.

From then on, Mei Hachi gave up her identity as a phantom thief and stayed by Daiki Asuka's side as his wife.

Although the other party is no longer active, relying on his identity as a "Phantom Thief", he has connections with other "Phantom Thieves", such as "Cat's Eye" and "Phantom Thief Kidd". However, all parties have maintained a certain degree of restraint and have not interfered with each other's normal lives.

It was precisely because he knew the connection between his wife and other Phantom Thieves that he said this.

Because of his wife's trust, he didn't say much.

"We police will catch him. The reason I'm asking you this is because he might be involved in a big case. If you're not familiar with him, try to keep your distance from him."

Daiki Asuka did not ask about the specific situation, and Mei Hachika also did not ask too much about the progress of the case.

The couple maintains a wonderful tacit understanding and supports each other.

But at this moment, Mei Hanetake suddenly spoke.

"By the way, Dagui, it just so happens that you came back early tonight..."

Having said that, she lowered her head, still a little shy, even though she had been married for more than ten years.

Asuka Daigui, who had never been urged by his father before because he had no children, understood immediately. He scratched his head in embarrassment, but did not refuse. He just put his arm around the other's waist and prepared to rest.

Thieves, police, ordinary people...

Everyone spent this destined to be a restless night in their own way. The next day, Lan Ke, full of energy, said goodbye to Jotaro Kujo who was having breakfast as usual, and then jogged to the station with breakfast in his hand.

Wearing the Teitan school uniform and carrying a school bag and a sword bag, he looked just like any other athletic boy except for his odd hair color.

However, as he was jogging to the station, he saw a woman in sportswear and a hood running towards him.

Although they didn't know each other, they would meet each other jogging almost every morning. In the spirit of "maintaining good relations with neighbors", Lan Ke nodded at the other party as a greeting.

The woman who was jogging in the morning seemed a little surprised by Lan Ke's behavior and was stunned for a moment, but she still nodded as a greeting.

The two passed each other, and Lan Ke didn't pay much attention. He accidentally glanced at the silver hair showing through the gap in the other's hood. He sighed in his heart that this world is really magical, and then he jogged to the station without thinking too much.

Yesterday he was busy with 'changing his heart' and had no time to kill monsters. Today he must level up well before challenging the shadow of 'Bukujima Saeko'!

The meaning of the stable is that the ling jian is Qi ni Ba

My level has increased, and I have also learned some methods to crack the 'Rakshasa moves' from Fujimura Taiga. I should be able to improve my strategy progress today, right?

Thinking of this, Lan Ke walked more happily, so he didn't notice that when he left, the woman who was jogging in the morning didn't actually leave. Instead, she stared at his back silently, and her frown didn't relax until he left.

"Did we meet him again? Could he be from Arasaka? That's unlikely. With such a distinctive hair color, there's no way he can hide himself..."

While muttering to himself, the other party took out his mobile phone as if searching for something. After a while, a piece of information about Lan Ke popped up. What was strange was that this information should have been filled out by Jotaro Kujo when Lan Ke entered Teitan High School, and it even included Lan Ke's "Protective Observation Punishment Letter".

Student information is already strictly protected, not to mention Lan Ke's special identity. Even ordinary teachers cannot retrieve it from the database. Only the principal and the class teacher are qualified to access it.

So where did the other party get this information?

No one knew, but the other party was watching it very carefully. After operating on her mobile phone for a while, she actually retrieved Lan Ke's "court record".

Because Lan Ke was a "minor", his trial records were also kept in a special database. They were also information that ordinary people or people not related to the case could not access, but they were also retrieved by the other party.

She stopped running and instead walked towards somewhere silently, her eyes extremely serious...

Chapter 13 The most vicious curse——Conan goes to your house to shoot an episode!

More than an hour later, Lan Ke, who had no idea that not only his 'Phantom Thief' identity was being remembered, but even his 'true self' was being targeted, had just left the 'Impression Space' and was in a good mood.

After all, as he expected, the 'Second Floor of Impression Space' had refreshed many new 'Demons'.

There's even 'Jack Frost' among them!!

The opponent is not only a "personality mask" that is more useful in the early stage of ice attributes, but also a famous mascot of the P series. He is very popular and looks very cute.

In addition, he once again challenged Busujima Saeko's "shadow". Although he failed in the end, his progress was obviously much better than the last time.

This also means that as long as he continues to improve the level of his "personality mask" and ask Fujimura Taiga for swordsmanship, defeating "Rakshasa" is only a matter of time.

Just at this moment, he saw Kudo Shinichi and Mao Li Ran walking towards the school side by side.

Thinking of the prank he had played on him yesterday, Lan Ke's eyes suddenly lit up.

He quietly slowed down his pace and moved up behind the two of them, but he didn't expect that at this moment, Mao Li Ran suddenly turned around. Their eyes met and they were both stunned.

Lan Ke didn't expect that he would be discovered in advance, and Mao Li Ran didn't expect that the person behind her was Lan Ke.

But Ran Mouri's strange pause caught Kudo Shinichi's attention. He instinctively turned his head with milk in his mouth, and was stunned when he saw the sneaky dog ​​Lan Ke.

Lan Ke waved to the two of them calmly.

"Hey~ Good morning~"

"Good morning, Narukami-san."

Mao Lilan greeted Lan Ke gently as always, but Kudo Shinichi looked dead in the eyes and couldn't help but complain.

"How old are you, and you still play pranks?"

Lan Ke, whose thoughts were seen through, didn't care at all, and even put on an expression as if he was lucky this time.

"You have no right to say that to me, right?"

Looking at Lan Ke's attitude, Kudo Shinichi knew that Lan Ke definitely had not given up. What was more troublesome was that without his childhood sweetheart, he might not be able to find Lan Ke. When he thought of Lan Ke's fighting ability that might not be inferior to that of his childhood sweetheart, he seemed to be uncertain about his ability to defend himself.

But the problem is, how could a man of seven feet tall admit defeat?

Especially in front of my childhood sweetheart.

Kudo Shinichi suddenly puffed out his chest, with an expression of fearlessness.

Lan Ke and Kudo Shinichi were unwilling to give in to each other, which made Mao Lilan very helpless. She suddenly remembered her good friend Suzuki Sonoko's evaluation of the two of them.

"Are all boys childish?"

Now it seems that it’s not just his childhood sweetheart, but the transfer student Lan Ke seems to be the same?

Fortunately, Lan Ke quickly realized that what he was doing seemed a bit childish, so he simply changed the subject.

"Mori-san, didn't you guys have training today either?"
