After bandaging the wound, Yakushiji Ryoko put a shawl on her shoulders to cover her shoulders and returned to the banquet hall with a normal expression.
"Counsellor, it was really dangerous just now. How could you directly hit the sword tip on the other side? If the other side is crazy... please don't do such a dangerous thing next time!"
Junichiro Izumida, who put his coat back on, advised Ryoko Yakushiji.
Although Izumida Junichiro complained a lot when he was assigned to Yakushiji Ryoko at the beginning, people are highly adaptable creatures. Over time, he got used to his subordinates serving as servants and assistants. A lives as a disciple, a loyal minister, a slave, a domestic animal, a chair, a deacon, an adjutant, a chief of staff, and a captain of the Guards. He does not want to see Ryoko Yakushiji harmed.
Yakushiji Ryoko's eyes flashed, but when she spoke, she used her customary Queen's tone: "Servant, when will I need you to teach me how to do things?"
"Yes, yes, I was wrong, I'm sorry, counselor!"
Junichiro Izumida lowered his head and admitted his mistake.
Yakushiji Ryoko said nothing more, but she was complaining in her heart. I never expected that that crazy woman would actually dare to stab her!
The reason why she dared to use money to bribe Esdeath was because Yakushidera Ryoko had already guessed that Esdeath was most likely from Suzuki Jirokichi's side, because she had an overwhelming advantage in force, but she never faced him. The people of the "True Martial Arts Group" were deadly, and combined with the conversation with Esdeath later, she also successfully figured out Esdeath's bottom line, which was to let them leave the place where "Kid" descended. In this way, She was almost certain that Esdeath was following Suzuki Jiro Yoshi's orders to clear the place where "Kid" descended. The purpose was to ensure that "Kid" could successfully sneak into the banquet hall to carry out the theft plan. After all, Suzuki Jiro Yoshito held the There were so many guests invited to the banquet, and the stage was set up. Of course, he had to win "Kidd" on the most gorgeous stage, so that he could live up to the love-hate relationship between him and "Kidd" for so many years.
It was precisely because of this inference that Yakushiji Ryoko dared to test Esdeath further.
She originally thought that when she stepped forward, Esdeath would unconsciously retreat due to her courage and courage, and then she would commiserate with herself and praise herself a few words. After all, this is how it was played on TV!
Who would have thought that Esdeath didn't give in at all, and just let herself hit the tip of the sword. After the tip of the sword pierced her shoulder, the trembling woman spun around. The pain not only made her doubt her life, but also made her worry about herself. Will your flawless body leave scars that cannot be healed?
The previous composure was all fake, and Yakushiji Ryoko was actually panicking. She had never seen such a lunatic, acting so unreasonably, but her self-centered character would never allow herself to be in front of anyone. Lu Yie, if she had been alone at that time, she would have been rolling on the floor in pain.
Even now, after the wound was bandaged, the discomfort accompanying the blood loss was still affecting her, but she had to force herself to cheer up and carry out the banquet to the end.
She has paid such a heavy price, and she must see this drama to the end!
In addition, everything shown on TV is indeed a lie!
Yakushiji Ryoko's face was still arrogant, but in her heart she started scolding the TV series' brainless screenwriter.
"Hey, reasoning madman, why are you here so soon?" Suzuki Sonoko looked at the somewhat lost Kudo Shinichi and couldn't help but gloated, "What, the reasoning is wrong? The place we went to is not actually where 'Kid' is coming. The place?"
"It's okay, Shinichi. Don't be discouraged. Maybe Kidd's code is just a mystery as others have said. There is no useful information recorded in it. After all, he is not as stupid as the Phantom Thief to infiltrate him. The location is widely advertised.”
Seeing that Kudo Shinichi was in a bad mood, Mao Lilan rushed up to comfort him.
"Xiaolan, I'm fine." Kudo Shinichi shook his head, indicating that he did not need comfort.
In fact, all Kudo Shinichi needs is a little psychological buffer time.
Before today, he didn't know that the police in Tokyo were so violent. Before he even arrived at the scene, the scene was already surrounded by police.
Ah, no, considering the difference in combat power between the police and the unidentified foreign woman, it should be said that the police were surrounded by the foreign woman opposite.
But no matter what, the police arrived at the location of "Kid" before him, and this incident caused him a lot of trauma.
He has always had a sense of vanity that the police cannot be relied upon and he must deliver justice. However, recently, the Metropolitan Police Department has solved cases one after another without his help, and Officer Megure no longer indulges him and allows him to enter and leave the crime scene at will. , guarding against him is almost the same as guarding against a thief. Now, being rushed to the location of "Kid" by the police, Kudo Shinichi couldn't help but feel a strong sense of self-denial.
Am I actually...not necessary?
Kudo Shinichi couldn't help but start questioning himself.
A young man of his age is most eager for recognition from the outside world, especially since he has enjoyed the honors of "front page son" and "media darling". Once he has experienced such honors, he will indeed be Addicted, Suzuki Jiroyoshi had a quarrel with the first-generation "Kid" because the front page was robbed.
So when the police no longer needed Kudo Shinichi to solve the case, and when the police arrived at the place where "Kid" arrived earlier than him, Kudo Shinichi felt that his past glory was constantly fading, which made him very disappointed.
"Tch, you are ruining Xiaolan's good intentions again..." Lingzuki Sonoko glanced at Kudo Shinichi angrily, then hugged Mao Lilan's arm and said to Mao Lilan, "Let's go, Xiaolan, let's ignore this reasoning maniac." Come on, follow me!"
"Yuanzi..." Mao Lilan smiled bitterly, but she couldn't defeat Suzuki Yuanzi and could only follow Suzuki Yuanzi to greet the guests.
Suzuki Sonoko is considered the next generation successor of the Suzuki Zaibatsu. Although she is still young and only a high school student, it is time to start cultivating her own connections. Although this banquet was organized by Suzuki Jirokichi for "Kid", since it has already started , then naturally it should play a more role, squeeze out the residual value, and let Suzuki Sonoko have more contact with various second-generation people in Tokyo's upper class society and cultivate relationships.
Among them, the most important ones are of course Erina Nakiri and the two kittens of the Kaisei family. Totsuki Group is an oligarch in the Japanese catering industry and related industries. The two kittens are the heirs of the Kaisei family, which has great power overseas. The three of them are the most important people in the banquet. Even Suzuki Sonoko has to entertain them in advance. Of course, the others cannot ignore them. Even if Suzuki Sonoko doesn't have to entertain everyone attentively, she must at least say hello and go through the motions.
"Miss Yakushiji, long time no see. Did you go out just now? I haven't seen you yet!"
Suzuki Sonoko greeted Yakushiji Ryoko who had just returned to the banquet hall.
No matter how bad Yakushiji Ryoko's character is, she is the eldest daughter of JACES, Asia's largest security company. The security systems used by those big families in Japan are inextricably related to the Yakushiji family. They are either directly affiliated with JACES, or they are directly affiliated with JACES. Being controlled by JACES, even the peripheral security guards used by the Suzuki family were trained by JACES. Therefore, no matter which family chooses to maintain a certain friendship with the Yakushiji family, even the Suzuki family is no exception.
Originally, Yakushiji Ryoko was also the guest that Suzuki Sonoko wanted to entertain, but Yakushiji Ryoko came late and left shortly after the banquet started. Suzuki Sonoko never had time to greet her. Now that she reappeared, of course she immediately Come up and greet her.
"It's Yuanzi. Long time no see. I was a little bored just now and the wind blew."
Seeing that the person who came up to say hello was Suzuki Sonoko, Yakushiji Ryoko managed to cheer up because she still wanted to talk to Suzuki Sonoko about something.
"Speaking of which, Mr. Jiroyoshi just casually let a little girl wear the 'Golden Dusk' and walk around without any protection. Aren't you afraid that the Phantom Thief 'Kid' will steal the 'Golden Dusk'? That thief is quite capable. Bar……"
Ryoko Yakushiji asked Suzuki Sonoko seemingly casually.
Suzuki Sonoko is the second young lady of the Suzuki family. She may know some of Suzuki Jirokichi's arrangements.
But Yakushiji Ryoko was disappointed. Suzuki Sonoko smiled awkwardly and shook her head: "You have to ask Uncle Jiroji about this. I don't know anything about it, and Uncle Jiroji won't tell me. I only know that he is very confident this time. I think I can definitely look good to 'Kid', so I'll just be Jiro Ji's uncle and be prepared, after all, it won't be good if Miss Yan gets hurt."
He shouldn't be so confident that he could actually ask the great swordsman to stay at the location where "Kid" was coming, and he almost packed up himself and the elite members of the "True Martial Group"!
Yakushiji Ryoko sneered.
Regardless of the fact that a great swordsman was arranged in that relatively unimportant place, could there be a master more powerful than Esdeath lurking in the banquet hall?
Yakushiji Ryoko was full of suspicion, and the eyes he looked at the banquet hall were different, and he began to look for possible masters.
Are they the guests chatting and laughing at the banquet? Or the waiters standing around? Or is it hiding in the dark and not showing its face at all?
In Yakushiji Ryoko's view, this banquet hall is no longer a simple banquet hall, but an "urn", a huge "urn" waiting for the Phantom Thief "Kid" to enter!
…………………………
"Master..."
On a tall building not far from Suzuki Jirokichi's private residence, Terai Kinosuke looked at Kuroba Kaito who was wearing the iconic white dress belonging to "Kid" and hesitated to speak.
"Grandpa Terai, don't worry, I know what's appropriate."
Kuroba Kaito adjusted the hang glider, calculated the wind direction, and prepared to fly into Suzuki Jirokichi's private residence with the white hang glider, landing on the roof of the small building he hinted in the notice letter, and starting from there. A magnificent move.
I don’t know if anyone has guessed his password. It’s best if they can, otherwise it would be too boring for Uncle Zhongsen to play games with him every time.
Ah, no, this time Suzuki Jirokichi didn't let the police in, and even his dearest uncle Zhongmori couldn't play with him, which made it even more boring.
However, even if someone guesses the secret code and ambush him at the landing site in advance, Kuroba Kaito will not be afraid at all, because he is extremely confident in his own skills and light skills, and he does not think that anyone can catch him.
Kuroba Kaito showed a confident smile. Several consecutive perfect actions boosted his confidence. He felt that he could do it!
"Young man, your opponent this time is Suzuki Jirokichi. He is my old rival. Even I have suffered at his hands. You must be careful!"
Although Terai Kinosuke had said similar words many times, before Kuroba Kaito took action, he still took the trouble to remind Kuroba Kaito again.
"Don't worry, I have taken advantage of Suzuki Jirokichi's opportunity to arrange a banquet. I disguised myself as a staff member and arranged many mechanisms in the banquet hall. That is now my home court. I also found several of them in the design drawing you got. The unknown secret passage, whether sneaking in or escaping, is half the result with twice the result. Grandpa Terai, thank you so much. Thank you for always tolerating my willfulness and helping me regardless of the hard work. The name "Kid" should belong to you. A share!”
Kuroba Kaito said affectionately to Terai Huangnosuke.
"Master..."
Terai Huangnosuke's eyes were slightly red. He choked and said, "Master, please don't say that. If it weren't for your help back then, I would have been killed by traitors and starved to death on the street. How would I be where I am today?" This life has been dedicated to your Black Feather family a long time ago. I should do whatever I do for you. I just don’t want to see you in danger. The one I’d rather take risks is me!”
"No, please don't say that!" Kuroba Kaito said firmly, "I am my father's child. Of course, I have to find my father's whereabouts. I should also inherit the name 'Kid'. I should bear the risk!"
"Besides, I have long regarded you, Grandpa Terai, as my family. If you can't bear to watch me take risks, how can I watch you take risks at your age?"
Kuroba Kaito looked back at Terai Huangnosuke and said.
"Master..."
Terai Huangnosuke made a moved voice, feeling that the young master suddenly grew up a lot after knowing the truth about his disappearance.
"Okay, Grandpa Terai, I'm going to go. Today will also be a gorgeous performance by 'Kid'!"
Kuroba Kaito set up his hang glider, sprinted down from the tall building, and flew along the wind towards Suzuki Jirokichi's private residence.
"Master..."
Terai Kinosuke watched Kuroba Kaito flying farther and farther in the dark night. After calling Kuroba Kaito, he put away his tears, took out his mobile phone and sent a message.
"Master has already set off!"
In the banquet hall, Suzuki Jirokichi looked at the message prompt on his mobile phone and smiled slightly, and replied very calmly: "Received!"
After receiving the reply, Terai Kinosuke immediately deleted all the information records, then raised his head again, looked at the direction where Kuroba Kaito disappeared and said affectionately: "Master, you have grown up, but it is not enough, please, hurry up more Let the earth grow!”
