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

"Number 2, Number 4, activate Plan B!"

When the assault team climbed onto the rooftop, forcing "Kaito Kid" to leap from the sky above the museum, the turbine that reversed direction immediately directed the gale-force winds at him, catching "Kaito Kid" red-handed.

The white-clad thief, who had been swept up into the air, scoffed in annoyance. But when he saw the thief being blown away like a wisp of dry grass, Nakamori Ginzo let out a wild laugh: "Hahaha, so scared you can't even start your hang glider!"

As planned, "Kaito Kid" was blown towards Tsukishima River by the turbine's gale-force winds. Under these circumstances, he was unable to use his hang glider at all... Just before he landed, several cranes that had been arranged in Tsukishima River raised their booms and opened a giant net to catch the falling "Kaito Kid".

Seeing that he was about to be caught, Phantom Thief Kid grinned, took out a pistol from his pocket, and pulled the trigger on the driver's seat of one of the cranes.

boom! boom! boom!

The bullet shattered the crane's windshield, startling the operators inside who fled in panic, abandoning all concern for operating the crane.

His actions left the police officers present completely stunned.

Especially Nakamori Ginzo, whose eyebrows twitched, wearing an expression of disbelief:

"Kidd... fired a pistol? He fired a pistol...?"

This was nothing short of a complete collapse of his worldview.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, "Phantom Thief Kid" released his grappling hook and hooked it onto the steel beam of the Tsukishima River Bridge. His white figure swung like a nimble ape towards the other side of the bridge.

"Yahoooooo~~~!!!"

He let out a strange scream and fled in front of everyone.

[Inspector, Kid has escaped on a cruise ship and is heading upstream on the Tsukishima River!]

An officer's anxious report came through the walkie-talkie.

Meanwhile, Ginzo Nakamori was still reeling from the shock of Kaito Kid firing his pistol and couldn't come to his senses for a long time.

A moment later, he seemed to wake up from a dream.

Although he found it hard to accept, he immediately looked around and asked, "Mr. Lin! What's your backup plan?!"

"Reporting to Officer Mori, Mr. Lin has already left!"

"what?"

Chapter 466: Clash with Lupin III

"Where's the helicopter!?"

"No helicopters were deployed for this operation, but there seem to be some naval police boats on the Tsukishima River!"

"No! We can't get around that net!"

"Kaito Kid has escaped again!"

Police officers in front of the museum were in complete disarray.

Once again, they let the Phantom Thief Kid leave arrogantly, and they could almost foresee how the media would mock their incompetence tomorrow.

Meanwhile, on the Tsukishima River, "Kaito Kid" was leisurely leaning against the railing of the boat. The evening breeze on the river made his cloak and hair sway. But just as he was happily gazing at the full moon on the Tsukishima River, a shout that came from behind accompanied by the sound of flowing water made him startled.

"Don't run, Kidd!"

He turned around and saw a little kid on a skateboard, speeding across the water and rapidly approaching the yacht.

He was immediately speechless.

He abruptly threw off his cloak, and in a flash, he leaped into the yacht's cockpit and stepped on the gas.

As Conan rapidly approached the yacht, he saw the white cloak fly towards him like a curtain. He quickly leaned to the right to avoid the cloak, and then saw the boat suddenly turn its nose up on the river and burst into a powerful sprint away.

"Where do you think you're going!"

Conan followed without hesitation.

The electric skateboard, specially modified by Professor Agasa, now has the ability to surf on water and is quite powerful, making it not difficult to catch up with a yacht.

To his surprise, all the lanterns hanging on the boat suddenly fell and drifted downstream during his chase. Conan became even more wary when the lanterns suddenly exploded, their flames obscuring his vision—

Damn it, all you do is try to be clever with these little tricks!

Conan swayed left and right, dodging the lanterns that floated by and suddenly exploded. He kept his sights on the ship, but what he didn't expect was that "Kaito Kid" in the cockpit set the ship to full speed autopilot and then ran into the cabin to start an old car he had hidden on the ship.

Boom! Boom!

He pressed the accelerator pedal to warm up the car.

"You can't shake off this kid with just this."

Although he couldn't see the kid's movements from inside the cabin, "Phantom Thief Kid" knew that the other party must be following closely behind him.

But this chase scene probably ends here.

He abruptly pulled the gear lever of the vintage car, and as the yacht outside the cabin sped forward and crashed into other small boats moored at the dock, causing its bow to lift high, the vintage car inside the cabin, which had been warmed up, also roared and shot forward.

Under the full moon, the vintage car, detached from the yacht's cabin, leaped high into the air, barely managing to land on the ground with a jolt before Conan's astonished gaze, but still managed to speed off along the road with remarkable steadiness.

"Goodbye."

Seeing Conan's astonished yet unwilling gaze from below the pier, "Kaito Kid" grinned and stylishly stepped on the gas and drove away.

However, his smugness didn't last long.

The old car speeding down the street suddenly began to shake violently, and before he could react in surprise, both of its tires suddenly went completely flat.

"what's the situation?"

He gradually brought the malfunctioning car to a stop, then flipped over and jumped off the old car, squatting down in front of it to inspect its condition.

"nail?"

He quickly noticed the problem with one of the tires and muttered, "Which unscrupulous guy scattered nails on the road?"

The tire was punctured not by a single nail, but by a whole bunch.

"Phantom Thief Kid" was squatting there, huffing and puffing as he pulled out nails, when suddenly a figure silently approached from behind him, grabbed something in its hand, and lunged at him.

Sizzle sizzle!

A stun gun, crackling with electricity and emitting an unsettling sound, struck the hood of the vintage car—"Phantom Thief Kid" dodged at the last second, avoiding the blow that was meant to land on the back of his neck.

"Whoa! That's so despicable to attack someone from behind!"

He grinned as he looked at Lin Jiashu standing behind him.

The sneak attack failed, and Lin Jiashu withdrew his hand, the flashing blue arcs of electricity on the stun gun illuminating his incredibly exquisite face.

There was a smile on that face.

"Just wanted to say hello."

"Whose tradition is it to greet people with a stun gun?"

The white-clad phantom thief screamed.

"After all, you deliberately squatted there hoping someone would say hello to you, right?"

Lin Jiashu casually adjusted the output frequency of the stun gun using the knob, a gentle smile on his face.

The "Phantom Thief Kid" also had a smile on his face.

Lin Jiashu then looked at the old car in front of him.

"The Mercedes-Benz SSK, one of the earliest sports cars produced by Mercedes-Benz, was launched in 1928. A high school student wouldn't have the means to get his hands on such a classic car and drive it so recklessly."

"What are you doing? Knowing it's such a valuable car, why did you secretly tamper with it? This is an extremely rare car, with only 35 produced back then."

The white-faced phantom thief smiled and raised his hand as if to remove his top hat, but his face suddenly transformed into a comical monkey face.

Lupin III.

This internationally renowned master thief has reappeared in Japan since the incident in the Kingdom of Vesbania.

Lin Jiashu looked at him with a gentle smile, while Lupin III also had a casual and indifferent expression.

"It's okay, anyway, even if such an old car breaks down, no insurance company will come and ask me to pay compensation."

"That's going too far! You'll be condemned by classic car enthusiasts all over the world for doing this."

"I'm so sorry, but it's getting late. Would you like to come with me to the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department for a visit?"

"There probably aren't any pretty girls worth seeing there at this time, let's wait until next time."

Lin Jiashu chuckled and tossed the stun gun behind him. The small device, crackling with electric arcs, was thrown high into the air and landed on the ground some distance away with a muffled thud.

Lupin III raised an eyebrow.

The next second, he immediately leaned back, and Lin Jiashu's right foot swept past his nose. As he spun and landed, his left foot, which was about to follow, was blocked by Lupin III's raised arm.

"Wow, you're really strong, buddy."

Feeling the weight of the opponent's left foot pressing against his arm, Lupin III even had the leisure to whistle.

"Your reaction time is frighteningly fast."

Lin Jiashu had a smile on his face.

He slowly lowered his foot, but as if not wanting to give Lupin III any time to catch his breath, he quickly took action after his left foot landed.

Chapter 467: Let me confirm first if you really are Yoshiki-san!

On the quiet, deserted dock, Yoshiki Hayashi and Lupin III engaged in a fistfight.

This is so troublesome...

While dealing with Yoshiki Hayashi's attacks, Lupin III complained inwardly.

This guy in front of me is a dangerous person.

As Fujiko Mine had said before, the guy in front of her was a man who appeared polite and gentle in public, but had many schemes and ideas behind the scenes... He was probably like a venomous snake, and most people would only realize it when he was suddenly bitten.

Lupin III largely agreed with Fujiko Mine's opinion on this matter.

After all, Fujiko Mine's eye for men is incredibly accurate.

"Oh dear, that's dangerous."

Lupin III quickly tilted his head to the side, avoiding a punch that came straight at him like a rock.

With a smile full of interest on his face, the instant Lin Jiashu clenched his fist and threw it towards his own heart, he reacted incredibly quickly, raising his arm to deflect the punch to the side. Then, without hesitation, he retaliated with his other hand, striking Lin Jiashu's heart in return.

Although Lupin III is often portrayed as a "strategist," he is actually a master of boxing and street fighting, and is also proficient in cold weapons such as daggers, samurai swords, short sticks, and even nunchucks.

However, during his fight with Yoshiki Hayashi, Lupin III felt a strange sense of unease.

As his fist swung out without hesitation, the blow that should have landed on Lin Jiashu's heart inexplicably missed its mark... as if it had inexplicably "passed" through Lin Jiashu's body. He exclaimed in surprise, and the next second he suddenly felt a jolt in his abdomen—

When Lin Jiashu's clenched fist landed on Lupin III's abdomen, it felt as if his fist had landed on a piece of steel. Realizing that the sensation was wrong, he spun around and delivered a whip kick that sent Lupin III flying backward.

The monkey-faced thief, wincing in pain, staggered a couple of steps, clicking his tongue twice. Although there was a hint of doubt in his eyes, his face wore a cunning smile.

"Ta-da! Actually, I hid a steel plate in my clothes."

He removed the steel plate hidden in his clothes like a clown performing tricks in a circus.

These tricksters always seem to be particularly good at hiding things under their clothes; no matter how much stuff they put in, their clothes always look very close to their bodies.

"Is that so? Then I've actually hidden something too."

What are you hiding?

Lin Jiashu did not answer.

However, as he approached with a smile, Lupin III, having only exchanged a few blows with him and instinctively dodging or parrying his incoming punches... but just then,

Crackle!

A dazzling arc of electricity exploded on Lupin III's arm, causing the monkey-faced phantom thief to let out a comical "Eek!" and his entire body to tense up. At the same instant, he noticed that Lin Jiashu, whose hands had been empty, was actually holding a stun gun that was emitting electric shocks.

what's the situation?

Is it something like an illusion or magic trick?

Lupin III fell stiffly to the ground, but his body immediately rolled to the side the moment he hit the ground. This surprised Lin Jiashu, who was holding the stun gun: "You... are really amazing. A normal person would probably be lying on the ground completely unable to move after being shocked like that, but you are completely unaffected."
