Isn't it very scientific to use the Death Note to kill people?

Another character, Kaito Kid, whose real name is Nakamori Ginzo, frequently steals and opposes Inspector Kuroba, but has a perfect record of defeats. He is repeatedly caught and released by Kaito Kuroba, always ending up as a sitting duck. His true identity remains unknown.

Kaito Kuroba is a police officer specifically responsible for capturing Kaito Kid. Because of his handsome appearance, he attracts a large number of fans every time he goes out on a mission. Capturing Kid is like child's play to him; he often catches and releases him. He is Kaito Kid's mortal enemy.

……

"Then, can you tell me if I'll be able to marry my Prince Charming?"

"So it really is something like calculus."

Koizumi Akako was not surprised at all. She laughed haughtily, then turned her attention to the crystal ball in front of her and said, "Alright, then I will grant your wish... My magic crystal ball, come, reveal to me what I have divined!"

The pale purple crystal ball gradually emitted light as she murmured.

The incredible scene left Ran and Sonoko speechless, and they couldn't help but want to get even closer to the crystal ball.

Conan was also a little surprised.

But he figured it must have some kind of built-in light-up switch.

Koizumi Akako stared into the depths of the crystal ball, and after slowly seeing its contents, she said, "As for your Prince Charming, I think that's unlikely. I advise you to just give up, because... cough cough!"

"The person he likes is me"—after seeing Hayashi Yoshiki's figure in the divination crystal, even though Koizumi Akako knew that such words were extremely annoying, she was about to blurt them out.

"what!?"

The garden, which had just begun to feel a little hopeful, was immediately filled with questions.

Upon seeing this, Conan immediately laughed: "What this older sister means is that you shouldn't ask anymore, it'll be discouraging."

Upon hearing this explanation, Sonoko was immediately dismayed.

She clenched her fists, almost gritting her teeth, glaring fiercely at Koizumi Akako, who had tricked her, before reaching out and tapping Conan on the head.

Conan immediately cried out in pain.

"I told you not to talk nonsense!"

Lin Jiashu noticed that a bump was growing on Conan's head at a visible speed, which made him curious, so he reached out and pressed on the bump.

"It hurts so much!!"

He covered his head and yelled at Lin Jiashu.

Sonoko was very dissatisfied with the divination result, but she held back because she thought the other party was Yoshiki Hayashi's friend.

Seeing this, Xiaolan could only smile wryly and pat her best friend's shoulder to comfort her, then changed the subject: "Brother Jiashu, what are your thoughts on catching Phantom Thief Kid?"

"There are some."

“To catch Phantom Thief Kid, we must first unravel the secret of his ability to walk in the sky.” Kogoro Mouri straightened his collar and said seriously, “Otherwise, if that guy walks down from the sky, we won’t be able to stop him from taking the Blue Wonder hanging in the museum.”

“But maybe we don’t need to figure out his magic tricks,” Lin Jiashu suddenly said.

"What do you mean?"

"When Phantom Thief Kid goes on a mission, he always quietly scouts the location and only suddenly appears at the appointed time... So, isn't it strange that he's suddenly showing off his new magic so ostentatiously this time?"

Lin Jiashu paused here, giving them some time to digest: "The essence of magic is sleight of hand; it simply uses various techniques and props to deceive the audience."

Conan immediately understood what he meant.

His face lit up: "Brother Jiashu means that his performance last night was just a smokescreen to deceive us, making us think that he would walk through the air to steal the gems, but in reality he might have used other methods, right?"

"It's just a possibility."

Lin Jiashu replied.

But Conan became more and more excited as he thought about it, and after being inspired, many of the mysteries in his mind were cleared up in that instant.

Not long after, he jumped off the chair, said he was leaving for a bit, and ran towards the elevator.

Xiaolan couldn't stop her even if she wanted to.

“It’s alright, he probably wants to inform the police officers below.” Lin Jiashu said, standing up from his chair and laughing, “In that case, I’ll go with him.”

Koizumi Akako was not surprised at all by his decision to leave midway through the meeting.

Because she had already foreseen through divination that something interesting would happen tonight.

She came to join in the fun just to witness this scene.

"Jia Shu has left too..."

"Hongzi, did you get to know him simply because you did a fortune telling for Yoshiki-san?"

At this moment, Ran looked at Koizumi Akako and asked.

"Yeah, that guy actually followed me to my school and asked me to do his fortune telling."

Who would believe that?

Sonoko pursed her lips; she didn't believe that Yoshiki Hayashi would be that interested in divination.

Xiao Lan tugged at her clothes.

As Sonoko leaned closer, Ran whispered in her ear, "Isn't Sonoko curious about what Yoshiki-nii was divining?"

"Uh……"

Watching Yoshiki Hayashi's departing figure, Sonoko couldn't help but feel curious.

Last night's chapter revisions

This plot point was indeed something I didn't consider properly, and some readers might think it's inappropriate. However, when I was writing it, my idea was that Akako's divination revealed fragments of the original world, without the influence of Hayashi Yoshiki.

After all, I wrote about Koizumi Akako's attempt to investigate Hayashi Yoshiki, which resulted in Lucifer being blown up. The protagonist was outside of divination... This is a point I didn't write in detail at the beginning.

Well, there are definitely problems that need to be addressed.

It's fixed now. You can refresh the page by clicking the three dots in the upper right corner.

Chapter 315: So she really is the one who likes Yoshiki-san, right?

Around 8 o'clock, a cloud of smoke suddenly burst into the sky in front of the Suzuki Museum.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, the figure of Phantom Thief Kid suddenly appeared in the air.

His white figure, surrounded by spotlights, caused a stir and gasps of amazement among the crowd, with reporters on the scene shouting into their microphones:

"It's here!"

"Phantom Thief Kid has indeed appeared in the sky, just as he said!"

Everyone looked up at the night sky.

It was at this moment that someone noticed the water droplets gradually falling from the night sky.

It's raining?

Just as this question arose, the rain suddenly intensified.

Inside the surveillance vehicle in front of the Suzuki Museum, staff suddenly noticed that the surveillance view from helicopter number seven had suddenly gone dark, and immediately took out their walkie-talkies and started talking.

"what happened?"

"The surveillance view from helicopter number seven suddenly disappeared!"

"This is Unit 7. There's nothing unusual here. The interference with the image is probably just a temporary effect of the rain."

The pilot of helicopter number seven sent back a communication.

However, Ginzo Nakamori, who had switched jobs to capture Phantom Thief Kid, didn't think so. He pulled out a walkie-talkie from his pocket and said, "No, I think maybe Kid's men released jamming signals to achieve some purpose."

"Phantom Thief Kid has subordinates?"

Conan, who had somehow appeared in the surveillance car, looked on in surprise.

Nakamori Ginzo didn't seem to mind that a child had suddenly appeared there. Instead, he answered without hesitation, "That's right. We received a report that he had an older one among his men. I can confirm that there's at least one around here."

"The old one?"

Conan muttered to himself as he turned his gaze to Lin Jiashu, who had just stepped into the surveillance vehicle.

It's not surprising that Kaito Kid has an accomplice.

But could his accomplice be this guy in front of him...?

Conan looked at Yoshiki with suspicion, only to find that the other man was reaching out his hand towards his head.

Lin Jiashu pressed his hand on his forehead.

"what happened?"

"Nothing, I just wanted to press it to see if it hurts."

"..."

Conan then realized that he was pressing the spot where Sonoko had punched him, and he immediately squinted and chuckled.

So you think it doesn't matter if it's not your pain?

"Hey, you're the detective Sonoko really admires, right?"

As Nakamori Ginzo instructed the police officers hidden in the crowd to be on guard via walkie-talkie, Suzuki Jirokichi turned around and saw Hayashi Yoshiki.

"Hello, Mr. Suzuki."

“You weren’t here yesterday. Sonoko told me that if you had been there, you would have been able to see through Kaito Kid’s trick.”

“After all, Kaito Kid said it was just a rehearsal,” Lin Jiashu said with a smile. “But she made such a confident statement that I feel a bit of pressure.”

"Are you confident you can help me catch Phantom Thief Kid?"

"...Before we see through his method, I can't make any guarantees right now."

"Haha, it's okay! As long as you do your best, that's all that matters!"

Jirokichi Suzuki let out a hearty laugh.

At that moment, the staff member sitting in front of the monitor turned to look at him: "Kaito Kid has made his move! Mr. Suzuki, please give the order! Otherwise, the jewel will really be stolen."

"It's not that easy for him to steal it."

Watching Kaito Kid walk step by step toward the museum with his hands in his pockets in mid-air, as seen from the surveillance camera's view, Suzuki Jirokichi snorted: "Now, immediately bring the Blue Miracle into the museum!"

"it is good!"

"Speaking of which, Mr. Nakamori, aren't you going to do something?"

"what?"

When Nakamori Ginzo, who was staring intently at the monitor, heard Hayashi Yoshiki's words, he couldn't help but turn around and look over.

"There are so many helicopters circling in the air, and all they do is watch him approach the museum... Don't they consider using a helicopter to get close enough to grab him or block him?"

"Uh, but wouldn't that be too dangerous?"

Nakamori Ginzo paused for a moment, "What if the propeller accidentally pulls Kaito Kid in? Wouldn't he be finished?"

"I see……"

No wonder Nakamori Ginzo could only keep following in Kaito Kid's footsteps.

However, in his opinion, the crimes committed by Phantom Thief Kid might not be so heinous, and he himself probably wanted to be able to arrest Phantom Thief Kid alive.

On the other side, under Jirokichi Suzuki's instructions, the staff pressed a mechanism—the golden statue holding a jewel, placed on the museum's roof, instantly flipped over and was stored back inside the museum.

Jirokichi Suzuki then ordered staff to turn off all the lights in the building, claiming that the other party and his men might be able to capture footage from the building's security cameras.

"As long as that jewel isn't stolen, it's a victory for me."

Jirokichi Suzuki looked at Ginzo Nakamori and said, "Officer Nakamori, I want to make a deal with you. I can hand over command of this place to you, but in exchange, can you lend me your reliable subordinates temporarily?"

The two reached an agreement after some negotiation.

Jirokichi Suzuki quickly left with several of his subordinates, including Ginzo Nakamori.

Conan watched his retreating figure and gave him an amused smile.

"Conan."

"what?"

"Can you do me a favor?"

"Now?"

Conan was just thinking about catching Kaito Kid when he heard Yoshiki Hayashi say this, and he couldn't help but wonder if Yoshiki was going to do something for Kaito Kid.
