"Old...brother?!"
Kuroba Kaito was startled and suddenly felt a gust of cold wind on the back of his neck.
Is it...an illusion?
Brother is obviously over there at the detective agency... Kuroba Kaito muttered in his heart. When he lowered his head and stared at the influence on the screen again, his heart instantly stirred up a storm.
In the slightly blurry picture after enlarging it, a pair of dead fish eyes were staring directly at the camera.
Been...seen! He knows I'm here... Kuroba Kaito was startled, and suddenly felt like he was looking at Ye Geng.
It was obvious that there was more than one screen and several streets separating the two of them.
Kuroba Kaito wanted to turn around and leave, but he still held it back.
Fortunately, I'm not an enemy... Kuroba Kaito is a Phantom Thief who has experienced "big storms", and his mentality has been adjusted quite quickly.
He muttered subconsciously: "Of course I have to pay back the gems, but how do you want me to answer you?"
In order to avoid accidents when collecting intelligence, he currently does not carry the mobile phone of 'Black Feather Kaito'.
[I know, then come on. 】
At this time, the calm voice came from the earphones again.
Hey, don't scare people... Kuroba Kaito almost threw away the surveillance suit, and said very dissatisfied: "What a piece of shit, does this thing also have the function of a walkie-talkie!"
[The equipment is okay, but there is a problem with the encryption algorithm. I will help you improve it when I have time. 】
"Even then, brother, you can still invade. At best, it will only take a little more time."
Kuroba Kaito complained about Soul Burning and simply multitasked, collecting information while chatting with Ye Gengyi.
At the same time, he also discovered a problem. The brother's mouth in the picture was clearly not moving. Why could he talk to him?
【you misunderstood. 】
At this time, Ye Gengyi's voice continued to come.
"Huh?" Although Kuroba Kaito has not yet discovered the secret of sound transmission, his eyes lit up when he heard this, "Brother, do you mean that the improved equipment cannot even invade you."
[No, what I mean is that even if it is improved and hacked into that device, it will not take more time. 】
(╯‵□′)╯︵┻━┻...What do I need this scrap metal for?
Kuroba Kaito: "Otherwise, brother, you should call the police. Maybe a hearty escape exercise can relieve my current depressed mood."
[You were the one who monitored me first. 】
Ye Gengyi said.
"I didn't!" Kuroba Kaito's little thought was exposed again. Because he was not sure whether Ye Gengyi heard the previous whisper, he decided to quibble for a while.
【never mind. 】
Ye Gengyi didn't know whether he really didn't hear it or didn't want to care about it, so he skipped the topic:
[You can find your own opportunity. The two of us can meet before taking action. I will give you some props. 】
"What the hell...uh, isn't this not good?"
Kuroba Kaito suppressed his curiosity.
I am determined to become an independent phantom thief, so I forget about it before making a plan. Asking for things from my elder brother during the operation will develop a sense of dependence.
[If it’s not convenient for you to show up, just ask Mr. Terai or Shimabukuro Kime to come get it. How is she doing? 】
Ah, this...Kuroba Kaito is in trouble.
In the plan he made this time, Terai Kinosuke and Shimabukuro Kimie did not participate much.
Although it is not the main reason, Kuroba Kaito also has a desire to compete with Ye Zangyi.
Now I was suddenly asked...I'm sorry to say...
"Well, I'd better get it myself. We will definitely meet directly anyway." Kuroba Kaito said.
[Oh, will we meet directly? It seems that I am planning to disguise myself as someone I know, Sonoko Suzuki... Ran Mouri... Kogoro Mouri... or Dr. Agasa? Everyone will take the Shinkansen when going to Nishitama City this time, so there shouldn’t be many opportunities to do anything, and with Kaito’s preference for women’s clothing, Sonoko and Ran are at greater risk of being harmed...]
Ye Geng's subconscious thoughts were faithfully conveyed by Ye Xiaobai.
Give the child some privacy... Kuroba Kaito Half-Moon Eyes: "Hey, brother, you've had enough!"
[Sorry, see you in the afternoon. 】
Ye Gengyi said, directly interrupting the communication, but the calm tone that surrounded his ears could not detect the slightest apology.
At least, that's what Kuroba Kaito thinks.
...
Maori Detective Agency, second floor.
While Ye Gengyi was chatting online, Kogoro Maori also gave a literal interpretation of 'Romeo and Juliet' in the trailer letter:
"'Romeo and Juliet'...Miss Juri, is this scene included in your stage play this time?"
"Well," Maki Shuri nodded, "Although I didn't participate in the performance, it happened to be the opening performance. Is there any problem?"
Hum, that’s right... Mouri Kogoro raised the corner of his mouth with a confident smile on his face:
"In this preview letter sent by Kaitou Kidd, there are three W and one H. These English letters are actually the abbreviations of four words, namely, 'who', 'when', and 'where' 'Where' and 'How' of..."
Could it be that simple... Although Conan didn't think that Kogoro Mori had solved the code, he still listened carefully:
"First of all, who is the mastermind? Needless to say, it is Kidd. The next crime location is naturally the stage of the Universe Theater where "Romeo and Juliet" is performed. As for the time...it was mentioned in the preview letter.' Bravo', which means applause, definitely refers to when the audience cheers and applauds!"
"That's great, you really deserve to be Mr. Mori!"
Maki Shuli marveled, then hesitated, "However, by then, the total number of guests and actors in the venue will be several hundred..."
"You don't have to worry about this."
Mouri Kogoro vowed: "Aren't there two words 'How' and 'Victor'? 'Vict' means conquer plus 'or' means conqueror. The conqueror 'How' in the play refers to, isn't it? As for Napoleon, I think...that Kaitou boy will probably change into Napoleon at some point and steal this beautiful 'Sapphire Star'!"
"What about the playing cards? Why should we tear the playing cards apart?" Conan couldn't help but ask.
"You idiot, don't the 'V'-shaped playing cards mean victory," said Kogoro Mori, and gestured 'yeah' to everyone: "That Kaitou Kidd must think that there is no such thing as victory." People can unlock their own codes, so they celebrate in advance, huh... But he is still too naive. With my famous detective Mouri Kogoro here, he will never succeed!"
"Thank you so much, Mr. Maori, I feel relieved when you are here!" Maki Shuli was relieved.
"No, no, this is nothing at all..." Mouri Kogoro laughed wildly, feeling very proud.
If only it were that simple... Conan started to make trouble, "Uncle, what does it mean when it says '26 letters flying and interlaced'?"
"Idiot, just count the English letters on it," Mouri Kogoro said: "Romeo, Juliet, Victor, Bravo! The total is..."
"22 letters." Ye Gengyi blurted out.
