.......
The entrance to the apartment building.
Natsume held Shiho's little hand and walked confidently past the apartment management office.
Sure enough, the apartment manager glanced at it again and went back to watching TV.
As Xia Ye stepped out of the apartment, she could feel that Shiho's small hands were a little damp, clearly indicating that she had been very nervous.
"Relax..."
Xia Ye simply picked her up and placed her in his arms, smiling as he said:
"You have to believe me, even if we're exposed, I can still fight my way out!"
"Uh-huh!"
Shiho wasn't actually afraid.
She just couldn't control herself; after all, she wasn't that strong inside.
In the past, we had no one to rely on but to endure it.
but now--
With Xia Ye by her side, she no longer had to go through the trouble of pretending.
Xia Ye carried Zhi Bao across an intersection.
He reached out and opened the door of the silver Alfa Romeo sports car parked by the roadside, first putting Shiho in the back seat, and then getting in himself.
Yukiko, dressed in a tight black leather outfit—a complete racing look—glanced back at Natsume and Shiho, and giggled:
"Where to? Straight back to the villa?"
"No~"
Xia Ye smiled slightly and said:
"We're going to Jianggutian Town to find someone."
"Ekoda?" Yukiko's expression was strange. "You're not planning to go to the Kuroba family, are you?"
"Yeah~"
Xia Ye removed the disguises from herself and Shiho.
"I need to find someone skilled in disguise to help me. In this world, besides that monkey Lupin, my teacher, and that kid from the Kuroba family, the only others who are good at it are..."
"What about me?" Yukiko retorted, somewhat unconvinced. "My disguise skills are excellent too! I'm Master Kuroba's apprentice!"
"Can you change your voice?"
Natsume shut Yukiko up with a single sentence.
Yukiko pouted, angrily started the car, and was just about to floor the gas pedal for a 100-meter dash in five seconds when Natsume's soft voice came from the back seat again:
"Slow down, Shiho doesn't like it too fast!"
"Yes!"
Yukiko gritted her silver teeth.
She subtly rolled her eyes.
So this girl is the apple of your eye, right?
I came so readily when I called, and you didn't even say thank you!
Despite her inner grumbling, she obediently released the accelerator, and the sports car drove steadily toward Jianggutian Town.
........
Yukiko was quite familiar with the Kuroba family.
Years ago, she studied disguise techniques here under Toichi Kuroba. Vermouth was also there at the time, but Yukiko only knew her name as Sharon.
The sports car passed the house with the Nakamori nameplate and stopped in front of the Kuroba residence.
Natsume got out of the car with Shiho and went to the door with Yukiko, where they rang the doorbell.
"Who is it?"
A puzzled young voice came from inside the door.
"I am Yukiko Kudo~"
Yukiko glanced at Natsume and gave her name.
She had met Kaito Kuroba once, so they were practically acquaintances.
"Yukiko... Auntie?"
Kaito Kuroba, whose hairstyle is similar to Shinichi Kudo's, opened the door and was stunned to see Natsume and Shiho standing next to Yukiko.
"Who are these two?"
"Auntie..."
Yukiko raised an eyebrow, wanting to reason with Kaito Kuroba.
However, remembering that his group had a favor to ask, he could only suppress his displeasure and forced a smile:
"These two are my friends. They've come to ask you some questions. May we go inside and talk?"
"Yes, please come in."
Kaito Kuroba was confident in his skills and also trusted Yukiko, whom he had met before, so he opened the door and invited Natsume and the other two into his home.
Greet guests politely and offer them tea.
"Can you tell me what you need me for now?"
Kaito Kuroba looked directly at Natsume, his intuition as a phantom thief telling him that Natsume was the leader among the three.
"Actually, it's nothing serious~"
Xia Ye looked relaxed.
"I just want to ask Kuroba-kun to come with me. Tonight and tomorrow morning, I'll disguise myself as one person and do him a favor."
"Wait! Why should I help you?"
Kaito Kuroba frowned. What kind of stranger would come to your door asking for help?
"Because of Phantom Thief Kid, Kuroba-kun~"
Xia Ye looked at Kuroba Kaito, whose smiling face had turned into a poker face, and said calmly:
"I think Officer Nakamori (Wang Wang Zhao), who lives next door, would be very interested in that secret room in your house, right? That lovely Miss Nakamori Aoko might even cry if she saw it~"
"You threaten me!"
The poker face he had carefully maintained to hide his emotions instantly crumbled, and Kuroba Kaito's expression turned ugly as he said:
"And how do you know all this?"
Kaito Kuroba did not suspect Yukiko, because even she did not know these things.
“I have my own information channels, but I’m not saying this to threaten you,” Xia Ye looked at Kuroba Kaito and smiled slightly. “I just want to make a deal with you!”
"What deal?"
Kaito Kuroba resumed his signature poker face. He noticed that Natsume's eyes were clear and didn't seem to be threatening him.
"Before the deal, now that I know your secret, I'll tell you one of mine too~"
Xia Ye picked up her teacup and took a sip: "Have you heard of that Spider-Man who recently appeared in Dongdu?"
"I've heard of Spider-Man!"
Kaito Kuroba, being exceptionally intelligent, instantly understood the meaning behind Xia Ye's words, and exclaimed in surprise:
"Could it be?"
"That's right, that's me!"
Chapter 49 Kaito Kuroba: You use magic too?
Spider-Man!
The mysterious entity that appeared in Dongdu a few days ago.
The night Spider-Man appeared.
Kaito Kuroba saw the information online.
At first, he didn't believe it at all.
Just kidding, he himself is a master of scaling walls and rooftops, how could he not know the difficulty of Spider-Man's actions?
It's no exaggeration to say that if Spider-Man were real, and he punched himself with all his might and his body didn't shatter into pieces, it would be a complete disrespect for power!
However, since the Metropolitan Police Department even held a press conference the next day, he had no choice but to believe it.
Later, he realized that if there were true magicians like Koizumi Akako in the world, then the emergence of a Spider-Man wouldn't be so hard to accept.
And now.
Spider-Man was standing right in front of him!
"Would you like me to demonstrate?"
Xia Ye smiled lightly as she looked at Kuroba Kaito.
"Yes! Yes! Yes!"
Before Kaito Kuroba could speak, Yukiko, who was next to Natsume, had her eyes shining brightly, her beautiful eyes sparkling, and she excitedly shouted out.
"If possible, I'd like to take a look~"
Kaito Kuroba is, after all, a seventeen-year-old boy, and his curiosity is still quite strong.
Xia Ye instantly donned the Amazing Spider-Man suit.
Kaito Kuroba's pupils contracted. Even a top magician like him couldn't figure out how Natsume changed her clothes. This was definitely not normal magic. It was either magic or Detective Conan's magic!
667 "Cool!"
Yukiko blinked her starry eyes and touched it directly.
"The material is really good! And it's so flattering!"
"The feel..."
"spider......"
Shiho was a little reserved, but her hands were quick. She gently touched the large golden spider on Natsume's chest, and the inquisitive look unique to scientists reappeared in her icy blue pupils.
"Since it's Spider-Man, it must be a biological mutation. Xia Ye, give me some blood when you have time so I can study it!"
"Don't make trouble!"
Natsume poked Shiho's face and pushed her away, then looked at Kaito Kuroba, "So, want to make a deal with me?"
"want!"
Kaito Kuroba pondered for a moment, then nodded in agreement:
"Tell me the details of the transaction?"
"As I said before, you need to disguise yourself as someone and do me a favor. With your abilities, there shouldn't be any danger."
Xia Ye provided an explanation:
"As a condition of the deal, I owe you a favor, and I can do you a favor in the future within my capabilities. Is such a deal fair?"
"very fair!"
In a sense, Kaito Kuroba felt that he had gained a slight advantage.
After all, Spider-Man's abilities far surpass his own; what Spider-Man can do is something he himself cannot!
"Then, the deal is done!" Xia Ye smiled and gestured for us to leave. "Now we can go!"
"now?"
