"I was sleeping in the morning." Ye Gengyi said.
"..."
Kuroba Kaito was speechless, and suddenly he didn't want to deal with a certain bastard brother.
By the way, he has always wanted to perform a magic trick perfectly in front of this person.
Terai Huangnosuke said:
"Master Kaito's target this time is a precious piece of amber. Because of its very special appearance, it is also called the 'Kirin's Horn'..."
"That gem was discovered by Mr. Suzuki from an ancient temple in the mountains, probably a few days ago."
Kuroba Kaito said dullly: "Brother, you don't even know this, do you?"
"oh."
Ye Gengyi nodded slightly: "I happened to go to the mountains a few days ago. There is everything there but no TV."
Kuroba Kaito: "..."
you win……
"It seems that at noon today, the press conference held by Mr. Suzuki will be broadcast on TV."
A certain Kaitou boy picked up the remote control and randomly found a program that was playing news. Sure enough, Suzuki Jirokichi's figure immediately flashed on the screen:
"Hahaha... that thief? This time I will definitely tear off the disguise on his face with my own hands, so that everyone can see Kaitou Kid crying! By the way... this time I will not only invite that Edogawa Conan has to rely on the strength of the entire young detective team, anyway... you just have to wait and see!"
"Why did you specifically mention the Youth Detective Team?" Ye Gengyi was surprised.
"Gengyi, look at this."
Miyano Akemi thoughtfully brought over a daily newspaper.
Cover, front page headline.
[The fateful showdown, Magician Kaitou Kidd VS Suzuki Jirokichi under the moonlight. 】
There is also a photo of the teaser letter attached at the back.
[At 7 o'clock on the next full moon night, I will come to pay homage to Kaitou Kidd, the Kirin Horn. PS: Don’t act childishly this time, let us adults have a one-on-one duel! 】
A showdown between adults?
Ye Gengyi looked away from the newspaper with no interest and said casually:
"Gems, do you need to return them?"
When he didn't know much about Kuroba Kaito at first, he would indeed wonder why this 'phantom thief' always returned the stolen gems.
Until I realized that the other party was actually looking for a gem called 'Pandora'.
After all, it is unlikely that the presenter would risk huge losses and accompany Kaitou Kidd to play this much-anticipated game many times.
At least, as far as Suzuki Jirokichi is concerned, these two people have a tacit understanding.
"Of course."
Kuroba Kaito hummed... Damn brother, he still believed in his own strength, otherwise he wouldn't have split the spoils after getting the gem.
As soon as his thoughts came to his mind, the next second he saw Ye Gengqu pointing to the newspaper on the table and continued:
"It's unlikely that you will cancel after such a big fuss. Just to be on the safe side, you should call your mother now. Well... although the probability of you being caught is low, it will still take some time if you get injured. Please explain in advance how prepared you are. .”
Kuroba Kaito: "..."
If I couldn't beat him...
"Don't make that face."
Ye Geng took a sip of coffee and said calmly: "Since you can think of some things, you must be prepared."
"Although I know you are explaining, bastard brother..."
Kuroba Kaito looked helpless: "But it still sounds like I will fail."
"Gengyi, don't worry."
Miyano Akemi said: "This operation should go smoothly. Mr. Terai and Kaito have simulated it several times."
"Ms. Miyano also helped a lot." Terai Huangnosuke added with a smile.
Stop complimenting each other...
Ye Gengyi looked at Kuroba Kaito and said:
"I also checked the weather when I was looking at the flight tickets. There is a typhoon the day after tomorrow. Let me think about it... You will definitely not ignore this kind of detail. Since there is a risk that the hang glider cannot be used, you want to steal the gems. The typhoon with a higher priority is an indispensable help, and..."
He slid his finger behind the PS on the photo in the notice letter:
"This is a way to provoke a general. Regardless of whether Suzuki Jirokichi realizes it or not, he cannot completely comply with your wishes on this matter. That detective boy should have a lot of hatred for you recently..."
Ye Gengyi paused briefly and did not mention the photo, lest Kaito, with his out-of-touch personality, would laugh at Conan at a critical moment and expose unnecessary flaws:
"So... I assume it's a completely reasonable assumption that you might be injured."
Surprisingly, it was so easy to guess that they wanted to take advantage of the typhoon weather... Terai Huangnosuke and Miyano Akemi were silent.
The two of them had specially made a model to predict the scene in the past few days, and made several attempts based on the wind direction and rain.
"It seems that I was right." Ye Geng picked up the coffee and took a sip: "Since I can think of it, the little detective shouldn't take too long."
"it's okay."
Kuroba Kaito waved his hand indifferently, "It will be guessed that I want to take advantage of the typhoon weather. It was originally planned. The key lies in the ancient temple where the Kirin Horn is stored. I bet that even if you go, brother Over there, they definitely couldn’t imagine what I planned to do with the typhoon weather.”
What I didn't expect...well...there is no need for Kaito to insist on this kind of thing just for the sake of face. Therefore, although the typhoon weather is crucial, it is only a auxiliary means.
If there is anything different from usual, judging from the current clues, there are only one-on-one and adult duels specifically mentioned in the notice letter.
Normally, the little detective would go even without adding this sentence, so... what Kaito wants to take advantage of is...
"The method of stealing gems is related to those children." Ye Gengyi said in a descriptive tone.
"……this……"
Kuroba Kaito's face froze, his mouth twitched, but he didn't say a word.
Ye Gengyi nodded and said, "It seems that I've got it right again... This is really difficult to guess. If you weren't showing off too much, it would be hard for me to think of it... because most people would think that , you refuse children to participate because it is impossible to pretend to be children, but... the technique needs to be completed by 5 children. Is the timing too loose? This is an uncontrollable part of the plan. variables...unless..."
He read the notice letter in the newspaper again and thought for a moment:
"I see... it's a typhoon... With your character, no matter how much you want to steal the gems, you won't make a plan that puts people in danger. Well, but... I really can't think of using the typhoon and those few I’m afraid the only way for children to cooperate is to see the scene..."
"Brother..."
Kuroba Kaito interrupted depressedly: "I was wrong, please stop saying it..."
