Science solves cases? No, I am an immortal cultivator!

the next day.

Before it was completely dark, a large group of Kidd's fanatical fans had already gathered at the Ginza 4-chome intersection.

The difference from yesterday was that today everyone was blocked outside by the giant net.

This was a special order from Suzuki Jirokichi in order to prevent the situation that happened yesterday where Kidd mixed in with the crowd.

Besides, there was no one else near the booth except for four bodyguards, so it was very empty, so Kidd's magic could be seen clearly.

For this purpose, Jirokichi Suzuki also specially cooperated with Ginzo Nakamori to avoid shortage of manpower.

……

"Uncle Maori, where is Sister Xiaolan?"

Conan went to the bathroom and when he came back he found that Xiaolan was missing.

Maori Kogoro glanced at Conan and said, "Kitagawa took her and Sonoko away, saying that he wanted to see Kid's performance up close."

Conan: ...

"Uncle, do you know where they went?" Conan asked.

"do not know."

……

On the top floor of the high-rise building where Kidd appeared last night, Kitagawa Taki and the other two were looking down at the crowd below.

Kitagawa Taki did not take them to the top floor because it might alert the enemy and attract Kidd's attention.

Sonoko asked curiously, "Taki, will Kaito Kidd appear on this rooftop again tonight?"

"High probability."

Of the four buildings at the intersection, only this one has not only a banner, but also a billboard with scrolling subtitles. These are all good things that can help Kidd hide.

"I've always thought it was strange," Xiaolan said. "Taki, Sonoko, why do you think Kid always wears white clothes? Wouldn't it be better if he wore inconspicuous black?"

Sonoko complained: "Every time he shows up, he always makes a big scene. Wearing white makes him stand out more and get more attention!"

Kitagawa Taki smiled and thought that the two of them were overthinking it. Kidd's clothes were just handed down from his ancestors.

However, this guy really likes to show off.

Just then, there was a commotion in the crowd.

A parachute suddenly appeared in the air with a card hanging underneath.

Kaito Kidd's voice came from the card—

"Good morning, everyone! I'm Kaito Kidd. I'm very sorry to have you all come here specially, but please allow me to cancel tonight's magic show."

"Without an audience nearby and no live TV broadcast, I really can't muster up any interest."

"Well, goodbye, everyone."

As soon as the words fell, the crowd erupted in loud noise.

Almost all of them were dissatisfied with the police for not allowing them to enter the giant net.

upstairs.

Sonoko couldn't help but ask, "What's going on? Kaito Kidd isn't coming?"

"No, he's already here. He was the one who shot the card out from the crowd."

Kitagawa Taki saw Kuroba Kaito wearing a baseball cap.

Xiaolan guessed: "So he said that to throw a smokescreen?"

"If I'm not mistaken, he'll incite the crowd to charge in next," Kitagawa Taki said.

After all, only in this way can Kidd reproduce yesterday's technique.

Kitagawa Taki's guess was correct. Kuroba Kaito shouted from the crowd, "Kid said he needs an audience. Let's all rush in together!"

If someone takes the lead, someone will follow.

Soon, everyone rushed in, and the police responsible for guarding the giant net were unable to stop them and did not dare to use force.

In a few seconds, the giant net was torn into pieces, and people surrounded the booth again like yesterday.

The four bodyguards who were in charge of guarding the booth were sweating profusely, fearing that someone would come up and steal things.

Fortunately, no one was bold enough to snatch the purple claws from the booth.

Everyone gathered together and shouted Kidd's name.

Looking at the scene downstairs that looked like a zombie invasion, both Sonoko and Xiaolan were stunned.

Sonoko swallowed, "Are these people crazy?"

Beichuan Taki said: "People tend to follow the crowd. Even if someone doesn't want to rush in at first, they will subconsciously follow when they see everyone else rushing in."

"The live TV broadcast has also begun."

Xiaolan pointed to the TV on the wall.

Yuanzi said: "I think the uncle let them all go because he saw that he couldn't stop them."

Just as Sonoko said, Suzuki Jirokichi brought in people from several TV stations.

Among them, Nichimi TV was filming the live broadcast on the rooftop where Kidd appeared.

Terai Huang Zhisuke mixed in with the staff and passed the inspection downstairs.

……

Night falls.

Arrived at the same time as last night.

Kidd arrived as promised and appeared in the air on a hang glider.

Nakamori Ginzo stared at Kaito Kidd in the air, "Damn Kidd, I must catch you today!"

As he said this, Ginzo Nakamori rushed towards the booth.

Suzuki Jirokichi stopped him, "Wait a minute, Officer Nakamori, this Kidd must be a fake just like last night. He must still be in the crowd!"

As if he was going to hit Suzuki Jirokichi in the face, Kidd fell straight from the air onto the booth.

The crowd erupted in cheers.

Kidd folded up the glider and put the purple claw into his arms.

"Next, please enjoy my performance just like last night!"

Suzuki Jirokichi shouted to the four bodyguards: "What are you still standing there for? Catch him!"

The four bodyguards quickly pounced on Kidd.

But it was too late. A burst of smoke exploded and Kidd disappeared.

……

upstairs.

Seeing Kidd already wearing a black cloak and running away, Kitagawa Taki said to the two of them, "Let's go! Let's go upstairs and wait for Kidd."

The three of them came to the top floor. Apart from a few people from Nichimi TV, there was no one else upstairs.

Kitagawa Taki brought the two of them to the corner where Kidd appeared last night.

Yuanzi pointed at the railing and asked, "What is this?"

I saw two pulleys installed on the railing, and a steel wire resting on the pulleys and extending downwards.

"This is how Kidd teleports."

Kitagawa Taki made a gesture to silence them, pulled the two of them forward, and motioned them to look down.

I happened to see Kidd, wearing a black cloak, shooting cards with a gun.

Seeing this, both of them understood Kidd's magic tricks.

At this moment, Conan, who finally figured out Kidd's method, also ran to the roof.

Seeing Kitagawa Taki and the other two looking down, it was clear to him that Kitagawa Taki had already seen through Kidd's tactics.

Damn, he was a step too slow.

Conan ran to the side of the few people and looked down. Consistent with his reasoning, Kidd was rising rapidly in the air.

Xiaolan then noticed Conan and asked curiously: "Conan, why are you here?"

Conan touched his head and said embarrassedly: "Uh... I wanted to go to the rooftop to see Kaito Kidd, but I didn't expect that you guys were here too, Xiaolan."

Kitagawa Taki glanced at Conan out of the corner of his eye. There was no need to guess, this kid must have deduced Kidd's magic tricks.

"Hey!" Kitagawa Taki shouted down.

Kidd was startled by the familiar voice. When he looked up, he saw Kitagawa Taki's smiling face.
