Conan: Rice Flower Spring

Chapter 279 273. Let’s start with Kaito Kidd

"But then again, even though the case needs to be maintained, what should we do now?" A brief moment of excitement is usually followed by a moment of confusion.

Although Shiratori is not confused about the future, he will have immediate worries if he does not think ahead. Could it be that he can only stare blankly during this period?
"Of course you can't just stand there and watch. You have other work to do." Lin Longma pointed at the man in the white cloak in the picture.

"Kaito Kid? I'm going to steal the case of Investigation Section 2?"

"Of course not, Kaito Kidd is just a little more powerful." Lin Longma shook his head and denied Shiratori's statement:

"Let me put it bluntly. How much stolen goods has Kaito Kidd been able to count over the years?"

Shiratori thought about it and finally shook his head. If you really count it, Kaito Kidd really didn't steal anything -

Stealing something and then returning it later is a criminal act, but the crime won't last long.

Moreover, it would be easy to get away with this crime if you just find a better lawyer. A good lawyer in an island country can change a murder charge to an acquittal. Shiratori doesn't think Kaito Kidd will be short of money to hire a lawyer.

"That's it, isn't it? Kaito Kidd has been active for so many years, do you think any of the big guys above care?
Not at all, otherwise Officer Nakamori wouldn't have led a large group of detectives from the Second Investigation Section to mess around."

"Arresting Kaito Kidd might earn you huge praise (or abuse) from the outside world, but it's not really a big achievement for the Metropolitan Police Department.

Because Kaito Kidd is not a destabilizing factor at all."

At this point, Lin Longma changed the subject and pointed at the man with the mustache next to him: "But they are different. It is obvious that the man with the mustache is here for Kaito Kidd.

Including the threat that Mustache made to Kaito Kidd, and his self-exposure of what he had done to the previous generation of Kaito Kidd.

There is a grudge between this little mustache and Kaito Kidd."

As the saying goes, the enemy of my enemy is my friend. Hayashi Ryoma was not planning to turn enemies into friends with Kaito Kidd, he just wanted to give Kaito Kidd a reminder.

You can find my home, why can't I find yours?
"I understand! You want me to develop Kaito Kidd into my informant!" Shiratori's top-level understanding "got it right away".

Lin Longma was stunned when he heard this, and nodded subconsciously. If Bai Niao really intended to do this, it seemed that there would be nothing wrong with it?

Buddha can recruit monsters, so why can't the police recruit thieves? Haven't you heard that the end of the universe is organized?

There is no such thing as a compilation!
"But where can I find Kaito Kidd?" Shiratori understood, but in practice, he was still confused as always.

Lin Longma didn't find it strange, he was used to the professionalism of the Tokyo detectives. Forget it, although they are not capable, they listen to advice.

Sometimes listening to advice is a very good virtue. It's better than being a fool who can't do anything but has righteous ideas, right?

"Since this mustache guy mentioned that the first generation of Kaito Kidd was Kuroba Toichi, then we should start by investigating Kuroba Toichi's family relationship."

If it were anywhere else, finding an apprentice for Kaito Kid would be like looking for a needle in a haystack. Apprentices, admirers, and imitators can all become the second generation of Kaito Kid.

But where are Lin Longma and the others? They are in Tokyo, in an island country!
The modern hereditary system with island characteristics is really a must-try.

If nothing unexpected happens, the son of the Superintendent of Police will become a senior member of the police force, and the son of a politician will also be a politician in the future.

The hospital director's son will inherit the hospital in the future, and the banker's son will continue to run a bank in the future.

So what about Kaito Kidd's son?

"I'll go find the information about Kuroba Toichi right now!" Shiratori excitedly called his subordinates and asked them to coordinate the information about Kuroba Toichi.

Because the island nation has not yet fully entered the paperless office, it took some time to find the household registration information of Kuroba Daoyi. "This is Kuroba Daoyi's household registration information, it says that he has a wife and a son.

Hmm, that sounds weird.”

Shiratori continued to look through the pages.

"I also asked someone to visit the Kuroba family - Kuroba Toichi's wife has been living abroad for many years and rarely returns to the country.

He is the only son in the family and is currently a sophomore at Jianggutian High School.

The more Lin Longma listened, the more he felt that this character seemed familiar to him, except for the fact that his father was missing (with a certain probability of death).

Why does the character of this guy named Kuroba Kaito overlap with that of Kudo Shinichi?
Since Kudo Shinichi's hidden identity is Edogawa Conan, it is reasonable that Kuroba Kaito's hidden identity is the second generation of Kaito Kid?

"How is this Kuroba Kaito doing in school?" Lin Ryoma asked curiously.

Shiratori immediately revealed an indescribable expression: "Well, he is not yet an adult, and the girls in his school did not call the police.

Otherwise, this guy would be a frequent visitor to the surrounding police stations!
He usually peeks under girls' skirts or hides in the girls' locker room. This guy is obviously good-looking, why does he always do such vulgar things?"

Shiratori placed the photo of Kuroba Kaito in front of Lin Ryoma, who was immediately dumbfounded.

The reason is simple: this guy and Kudo Shinichi are exactly like two peas in a pod.

“How can they be so similar?!”

Lin Longma once suspected whether the Kuroba family and the Kudo family had some unknown relationship.

"Let's not talk about appearance for now, Longma, take a look at this!" Shiratori handed another report to Lin Longma.

Above is a picture of Shiratori's men visiting Kuroba Kaito.

Through visits to Kuroba Kaito's teacher and classmates, most students in Ekoda High School know that Kuroba Kaito has very sophisticated magic skills that he learned from his family.

In school, they often see Kuroba Kaito performing various magic tricks anytime and anywhere.

"If nothing unexpected happens, Kuroba Kaito should have inherited Kuroba Touichi's talent and level of magic.

So did he inherit the identity of Kaito Kidd?"

Shiratori increasingly felt that this Kuroba Kaito was most likely the second generation of the Kaito Kidd that had been causing trouble in Tokyo recently.

Although he had no intention of capturing Kuroba Kaito, Shiratori was very excited to be able to see through the identity of Kaito Kid, who had caused so much trouble to his colleagues in Investigation Section 2.

"Hey, you're not going to be able to guess this guy's identity just by sitting there and guessing! It's time to pay a home visit to our Kuroba classmate!"

"Oh, by the way, I have to prepare a gift for Kuroba-san before I go on the home visit."

Lin Longma called Jintian over and whispered a few words to him, and then Jintian left in a hurry.

"What do you want Jintian to do?" Bai Niao asked curiously.

"Hey, you'll know when the time comes." Lin Longma said mysteriously.
