The stagnant atmosphere has not yet eased.
Just hear a click.
In the corridor, the light bulb used for lighting suddenly went out.
A cold light lit up from a distance, suddenly piercing the air.
Attack first? !
That guy's judgment was so decisive!
Kuroba Kaito hurriedly avoided the attack, and when he raised his head to look over there again, he lost all trace of him in the darkness.
on the ceiling.
A shadow like a ghost is hidden in the environment, approaching quietly with postures and movements that ordinary people cannot understand.
Did you hide behind the corner?
Lacking information about the terrain, Kuroba Kaito was unable to notice it for a while.
Clang!
From the top of the peaked cap, there was a sudden metallic collision sound.
After a steel needle was bounced, it spun in the air and fell to the floor.
? !
The failure of the sure-fire sneak attack obviously caused the other party to hesitate briefly.
Kuroba Kaito's pupils trembled, and after he regained consciousness, he secretly said something bad.
...This is like meeting a master!
Taking advantage of humans' habit of subconsciously looking at where an 'object' once appeared, it creates errors in vision and thinking.
This is a commonly used technique in magic!
yes……
This guy only needs to arrange hidden lines on the ceiling in advance. After leaving the secret passage, he will naturally make wrong judgments when he can't see the other person in the corridor at first glance.
How careless!
Kuroba Kaito retreated decisively, using his position to observe the opponent's actions.
Although raising your head at this time can observe the information immediately, it is undoubtedly the stupidest thing to do.
The modified playing card pistol slid out of the cuff.
While Kuroba Kaito retreated, he raised his gun and decisively pulled the trigger!
Whoosh!
Three similarly improved and thin cards, like a crescent moon, struck the ceiling at lightning speed in a windless environment.
Missed!
But it’s also expected.
Because Kuroba Kaito's goal from the beginning has been those invisible lines!
The figure was forced to fall back to the ground with a crashing sound.
His whole body was shrouded in a pitch-black cloak, with only three bright red dots floating in the air in the shape of a 'pin'.
It's him? !
The corresponding information appeared in Kuroba Kaito's mind.
The white horse guy said that this is a killer whose identity, age, and nationality are unclear.
Only a few people know his name, the world-famous illusionist Günter von Goldberg II, and the identity of the killer codenamed 'Spider'!
The opponent's unpredictable illusions had left a deep impression on Kuroba Kaito.
but……
Although he was at a disadvantage in terms of information about the environment, seeing his specially modified costume, this guy probably couldn't immediately guess that he was Kaitou Kidd who had fought against him before!
Use your own strengths to attack the other's weaknesses.
By utilizing the conditions rationally, an unfavorable situation can be reversed...
Kuroba Kaito flicked his wrist.
He pulled the trigger again.
At this distance, the speed of the arc-shaped card is not much slower than the bullet.
Thick danger is coming.
Spider, who originally had the upper hand, clearly felt at this moment that he was being suppressed.
The two sneak attacks were successfully resolved, and even the hidden line arranged in advance on the ceiling was easily broken by the strange weapon in the opponent's hand...
Who is this guy?
To know how tough this prop is, it can easily hoist five or six adults and swing it in the air without breaking.
He didn't dare to use his body to catch it. After dodging in a panic, he threw a smoke bomb.
boom!
Thick smoke quickly filled the hallway.
The spider-shaped red dot also became blurred in the smoke, and then 3 was divided into 6, and 6 was divided into 9...
Light and shadow overlap.
In front, above, behind, and below!
In just a moment, the dense red dots were like a huge net, and like an evil thing that was only trying to tear apart the hazy, filling the entire space, making it impossible to judge where the opponent was.
Depend on!
Kuroba Kaito was shaken a little dizzy.
Know that this is the technique the opponent is best at.
But... do you think you are unprepared?
He pressed the remote control in his pocket.
The two prop balls thrown by a flick of the wrist suddenly exploded!
It's not a smoke bomb inside, but an arrest net made by Ye Gengyi respecting his wish not to kill anyone!
Crack, crackle...
The red dots that were spreading everywhere a second ago now looked like small fish caught in a net, squeezing into each other.
It’s just...it doesn’t seem to be a hit?
Kuroba Kaito made a judgment based on the outline of light and shadow, and noticed that behind the smoke, there were three red dots like the taillights of a car. He made a backward gesture and then quickly disappeared into the darkness.
Run away again! ?
What do you call a spider? Let’s just call it a loach...
Thinking of his opponent's habit of running away once he was at a disadvantage, Kuroba Kaito curled his lips.
"I don't know if the movement here has attracted the attention of other people in the hotel."
He muttered silently.
By the way... the projection screen was raised in the conference room on the lower floor... As expected, this spider was the intruder who got ahead of him, right?
The actions of both of them are shady, so we must be careful of the one who ran away first and framed him!
Thoughts and actions unfold simultaneously.
He immediately rushed towards the entrance where he came from, and when he passed by the red luminous spheres scattered on the ground, he felt a shiver in his heart.
etc!
The hidden line has been destroyed by himself. If he ran away in a hurry, how come there was no sound of footsteps at all?
It's a scam!
Kuroba Kaito didn't care if he was nervous or not, he turned sideways without warning.
In the smoke, the dense cluster of red light spots suddenly went out.
At the same time, pieces of steel needles pierced out like a torrential rain, making the relatively spacious corridor extremely narrow.
Kuroba Kaito had no room to dodge, so he reached directly into his waist and activated the disaster prevention function of his paragliding suit.
puff!
The air bag bloomed in an instant, crushing the steel needles without any fancy, and even the lingering smoke was blown several meters away.
"Well!"
Kuroba Kaito heard a muffled groan, accompanied by the sharp sound of objects rubbing against the ground.
There was no room to hide, which meant that the other party really escaped this time.
"what happened?"
At this time, Ye Gengyi's inquiry came from the hidden earphone.
The disaster prevention function of the hang glider is planned to be a safety measure that will only be used after escaping from the hotel. In order to prevent Kuroba Kaito from encountering dangers that are difficult to withstand, a sensor inside will be turned on at the same time.
Kuroba Kaito knew about this and immediately whispered: "I met an 'acquaintance' and he ran away."
The smoke in the hallway has cleared.
He could now confirm that the spider really ran away.
"Don't chase after poor bandits, come back first." Ye Gengyi said.
