Maori Kogoro began to understand everything

The limelight had been stolen by him, the "Kid Nemesis" several times before, I don't know why they called him here in advance.

After waiting for a long time for the old man to let his men leave temporarily, Mao Li perked up and looked at the old man who had little energy tomorrow: "Sonoko said that Mr. Jiroyoshi was looking for me..."

"It's nothing, actually," the old man said tangledly, "I will challenge that guy again this time. If the strategy of my incompetent subordinates doesn't work, can I be the one to take the spotlight then... Don't worry, I understand the commission fee..."

Seeing that Mao Li didn't say anything, the old man hurriedly said: "Anyway, you are the 'Kid Nemesis', so it doesn't matter if you do this once..."

Maori looked strange.

"It would be fine if I didn't steal the limelight..."

"Great!" The old man suddenly said in surprise, "Just don't steal the limelight. If you have any problems in the future, just tell me!"

Maori was speechless.

This old man came to him just for this kind of thing...

……

A few days later, Maori received a message from old man Jirokichi, saying that he had come up with a solution and was going to display the dream sandals in the middle of the pedestrian street at Nishikiza 4-chome. He was relieved only after he confirmed again and again that Maori would not steal the limelight.

That night, Maori, with his eyelids drooped, brought Xiaolan, Xiaoai, and Sonoko to the scene to watch the excitement. A large crowd of people had already gathered on the pedestrian street, and it was a mess. Old man Jirokichi's men had a hard time ensuring that an area in the middle was left empty to display the dream sandals.

This time, the old man just published a challenge in the morning newspaper, and he did not even receive a letter of notice from Kidd accepting the challenge before he set it up...

This only serves to increase Kidd's popularity.

Maori silently observed his surroundings, and sure enough, another group of female fans rushed to the front line and held up a banner to support Kidd.

Conan looked at the noisy crowd around him and couldn't help but mutter, "It's like telling Kidd to come and steal..."

"Yeah," Xiaolan said worriedly, "Is everything okay, Sonoko?"

"It's okay," Sonoko was already looking forward to it. "As long as Kidd can come and let me take a look, everything will be OK. Besides, don't we have Kidd's nemesis here? Uncle, how do you feel now?"

Sonoko nudged Maori teasingly.

"no feelings……"

Maori and Conan stood by with bored looks on their faces.

He didn't want to accept Suzuki Jirokichi's weird commission at all. It would be a joke to record such a case in his detective agency's file. However, he still had to deal with a semi-acquaintance like Uncle Sonoko, not to mention that he paid a lot of money...

"However," Sonoko looked at old man Jirokichi who was dealing with Officer Nakamori on the other side, "Uncle seems to have his own arrangements. He said there will be no problem this time..."

"There are a lot of problems! All of them!" Nakamori Ginzo said angrily beside old man Jiroyoshi, "What on earth do you want to do? There are only four security guards guarding it, and you put the treasure in the middle of the road. In this way, Kidd can steal it in the blink of an eye!"

"Humph," the old man said, confident of victory, looking completely calm, "What would you do if you were the officer?"

"Well, at least put it somewhere high where it can't be stolen..."

"This is it!"

The old man reacted strongly.

"This is really stupid! It's because we are always at a high place that he can use the glider as he pleases. We are all controlled by him unconsciously. The high place is his stage, so we are in a mess every time..."

Nakamori Ginzo thought that this made sense: "So if we display it on the ground, then..."

"Yes!" the old man smiled confidently, "To make his wings useless! That guy is not a bird. Once he falls to the ground, he can't fly up with his glider!"

"But even if I can't fly away, I have to blend in with so many people..."

Ginzo Nakamori looked at the noisy Kid fans around him with annoyance.

Because of the old man's misbehavior, the police can't bring in a mobile team to fence off the road...

.......

A helicopter flew over Ginza 4-chome Pedestrian Street, with the searchlight shining directly on the center of the cross-shaped street. Looking from above, the ground was crowded with people, and there were even more people gathering.

This area seemed to have become the center of the entire Japan. Not only the crowds of people came to watch the excitement, but also TV reporters climbed to the rooftops of the surrounding buildings early to report on the scene. The exposure was amazing.

Maori stood with a gloomy face next to a group of female fans of Kid. Fortunately, Sonoko and Xiaolan were still responsible and did not hang out with these crazy girls.

"I'm coming!"

"It's Kidd!"

"Kaito Kidd is here!"

I don’t know who noticed that the sky suddenly called out, and I saw a white shadow flying from afar under the bright full moon, and the scene instantly became boiling.

Maori also looked up, and as the white hang glider flew over the pedestrian street, he could vaguely see that the hang glider was propelled by a propeller.

It's a fake person, trying to divert attention...

"I'm really here," Sonoko waved her hands excitedly, "Lord Kidd, I'm here!"

"It's impossible to respond," Maori glanced at the yelling Sonoko, "It's just a puppet. Now that guy is probably..."

"Oh!"

Before Maori could finish his words, the hang glider flying directly above him suddenly spewed out smoke and exploded into thick smoke covering the scene in front of everyone's stunned gazes.

Just as everyone was getting anxious, a white figure with a fluttering cape appeared on the middle booth as the smoke dissipated, looking as handsome and cool as ever. The crowd was silent for a moment, then suddenly burst into a dizzying cheer. The female fans and old ladies in front screamed and rushed towards the booth in all directions. Even a few security guards were squeezed away, which made Maori break out in a cold sweat.

Fortunately, although the crowd was excited, no stampede occurred.

"Amazing!"

Sonoko and Xiaolan did not follow the crazy female fans, but they were also amazed by Kid's gorgeous appearance: "He actually jumped down from such a high place..."

"Yeah, he's just superhuman!"

"No way," Maori and Conan said with a bad face, "It's just a remote control dummy explosion, and then when everyone's attention was in the air, they walked out of the crowd and climbed onto the stand. Magic shows are all like this..."

Maori really didn't know what to say about this kid Kaito.

The detective and the thief stand on opposite sides, but this guy is half one of them. Apart from pretending to be a good person, he is not that hateful. Probably only the police would go crazy and want to arrest this guy.

As for him, well, his only thought was that he couldn't let this kid always steal the spotlight.

Maori and Ai were soon pushed to the back by a group of girls and old ladies. They could only see Kidd on the middle booth talking to reporters with a cocky look on his face.

What plans will old man Jiroji have?

Maori looked at the helicopter above and was wondering when there was a sudden commotion among the crowd. Soon, four huge nets rose up around the intersection, separating the entire scene from the middle.

The giant net was about 20 meters high, completely blocking Kidd's route to leave. Suzuki Jirokichi, who was in the command vehicle outside, looked at Kidd on the live screen and laughed triumphantly: "Even if it's a hot air balloon, it can't be used with so many helicopters on it. Of course, if you want to blend into the crowd, I won't stop you, but when you are ready to leave the giant net, my men will carefully check you one by one!"

The old man felt a long-lost pleasure in his heart, and stared at the screen as if he was having a face-to-face conversation: "You will be found out if you are wearing sandals at that time! If you throw away the sandals, the crime will fail! No matter what, I win! Haha..."

Kidd just picked up the dreamy sandals, and before he could say anything, the fans around him became anxious: "Mr. Kidd, please disguise yourself as me and run away!"

"Disguise as me!"

"I……"

"Please don't worry, everyone," Kidd interrupted the panicked fans with a smile, "This is all within my expectations..."

"So what are you going to do now?" the reporter asked urgently, handing over the microphone.

"Well," Kidd calmly put away his dreamy sandals, "the work is over, so let's go home..."

Maori had already squeezed to the front of the crowd with Sonoko and the others. Seeing that no one stopped Kid from taking the shoes, he was speechless for a moment. He wanted to take action but then he remembered the agreement with Suzuki Jirokichi.

Maori's eyebrows twitched when he noticed Kid looking at him with a smile.

This guy definitely didn't come here in a hurry, he must have gathered intelligence...

"The famous detective over there," Kidd grinned at Maori in front of the camera, "Are you ready? My performance this time is teleportation..."

"Teleport?"

Maori was slightly stunned, and before he could respond, Kidd's fans at the scene cheered first, and the enthusiastic noises directly drowned out Maori.

really...

Maori calmed down and looked at Kidd on the booth. He was also curious about what this suddenly bold guy was planning. He would not have dared to appear in front of him before.

Who let him hold this guy's handle? That photo of him wearing women's clothing...

"This guy is talking nonsense again!" Officer Nakamori's eyes turned red as he looked at Kidd, and he squeezed towards the booth with difficulty, "Mouri, catch him!"

"Nice to meet you again, Officer Nakamori," Kidd saluted as a gentleman and lowered his hat. "I'll take the legendary dream sandals with me. Let the show begin..."

"Bang!" Another smoke explosion enveloped Kidd's body, and when Nakamori hurriedly approached, he was caught in nothing.

"Damn it! Disappeared again!"

Nakamori gritted his teeth and looked at the crowd around him: "That guy must have mixed into the crowd! Maori, did you see clearly?"

"No."

Maori shook his head.

He wasn't a psychic with X-ray vision, so he really couldn't grasp Kidd's whereabouts through the smoke.

I don’t know what old man Jiroji is planning now. Although four intersections have been blocked with a giant net, there are still quite a lot of people in the encirclement.

Maori turned his gaze to the giant net where bodyguards in black clothes and sunglasses were standing guard, but no one was trying to break out.

After a while, several cards flew into the crowd and were snatched by Kidd fans. The front had the Kidd logo, and the back had countdown numbers from 3 to 1.

As the number 1 card appeared, smoke suddenly exploded on the roof of a nearby building, and Kidd's white figure appeared in the moonlight and reappeared in everyone's sight, right on the roof occupied by Nichiren TV. The scene was shocked for a moment, and then suddenly broke out into a wave of cheers.

Maori narrowed his eyes slightly.

The whole process from disappearing to reappearing took less than 20 seconds. Kidd passed through the crowd silently and appeared on the roof of a building about 30 meters high.

Even if it wasn't teleportation, it was still incredible. He had just looked around the surrounding buildings and found nothing...

Looking at Sonoko who had turned into a fanatical female fan and Ran who was already full of admiration, Maori scratched his forehead. He felt even more headache when Kid spread his glider and left in full view of everyone.

This guy really knows how to give people problems.

Chapter 139 What does it mean to sit back and wait for something to happen?

"Om-!"

The Suzuki family's helicopter was still hovering over the pedestrian street with the majestic sound of propellers, but the real Kidd had already disappeared into the night sky, completing once again a magician's miraculous performance under the moonlight.

The crowd gradually dispersed, still immersed in the performance of Kaito Kid and discussing it, which made Nakamori Ginzo at the scene feel embarrassed. However, the one who was roasted on the scene was neither Nakamori nor the furious old man Jiroyoshi in the command vehicle on the other side.

Because of Kidd's declaration of war, Maori was shot in the face and became a point of outlet for the media's energy. He finally escaped from the media siege.

It’s easy to imagine that tomorrow’s news will be turbulent and simply terrifying.

Because he recognized that one of the dream sandals was a fake, Kid left the treasure in front of the Nichiren TV camera and announced that he would come again tomorrow night.

"Yes," said Jirokichi, the old man from the Suzuki family. His temper subsided, and he stood with his hands behind his back, looking solemn. "He said to the TV camera in a dignified manner, 'I'll return the fake to you. Please put the real one in the same place tomorrow night!' He said that..."

Maori, Officer Nakamori, and Sonoko and their group stood together. When they heard the old man's description, their brows furrowed.

"Is there a transmitter installed on the sandals?"

"It was installed. There was a transmitter hidden on the fake one," the old man said helplessly, "but it seems that he tore it off halfway..."

"We found the transmitter..."

Nakamori, who was still upset about Mori letting Kid go, took out three cards with a sour face and said, "Kid appeared on the roof about 3 or 5 seconds ago. These cards flew into the crowd. On the back were written 'There', 'Two', and 'One'. The transmitter was attached to the 'There' card that was discovered first. As soon as the card with 'One' floated down, Kid appeared on the roof..."

Sonoko still looked excited and said to Xiaolan: "We saw it at the time, it was like a countdown to the performance!"

Mao Li put his hands on his chest and looked silently at the card in Officer Nakamori's hand.

He had also seen these cards, but he didn't know where they came from...

"Since we have a transmitter, can we take a look at its movement trajectory?"

"Of course." Old man Jiroyoshi was somewhat shocked, but he was unwilling to admit defeat. Instead, he placed his last hope on Maori.

Of course, as I said before, it’s best not to steal his headlines.

In addition to the record of the movement of the transmitter's location, the staff under old man Jiroyoshi also kept a complete TV live broadcast video, from the appearance of Kidd to the departure of Kidd. Maori first asked the staff to retrieve the transmitter records. Although not very specific, there was still a general trajectory.

Starting from the booth in the middle of the intersection, it suddenly changed direction and turned in an arc in front of the building where Kidd appeared. It was only about 10 seconds before Kidd disappeared.

This should be the time when Kidd shot out the card with the transmitter. It was also probably at this time that Kidd started to leave the ground, because it was easy to be discovered when shooting a card in a crowd. At least he had already run out of the crowd.

Then, with less than 10 seconds left, he appeared on the top of a 30-meter-high building...
