Chapter 408 The Thief’s Misunderstanding

"Have you given up?"

Both Suzuki Tomoko and Suzuki Shiro noticed the chaos in the hall, but this result made Suzuki Tomoko frown slightly.

"Tsk~ What a sharp thief."

This time the trap was set up completely for Kaito Kidd, but who would have thought that under such circumstances he would choose to give up the goal of stealing.

"Since he gave up his goal of stealing, the reason he made such a fuss must be to rescue him."

The current situation is very clear. Shiro Suzuki can easily see Kaito Kid's purpose, so the police should also understand it soon.

"However, the guests haven't all come up yet, and the police probably haven't started their operation yet."

Tomoko Suzuki also understood this.

With Ayako's reminder, the police have been able to identify Kaito Kid's assistant, but the time for action must be after the ship sets sail.

Because only after sailing can the assistant of Kaito Kidd be stabilized and will not easily escape capture.

If it were a normal situation, as long as Kaito Kidd's action time was delayed a little, then the situation would be completely stable for Kaito Kidd this time.

Even if Kaito Kidd cannot be caught, Kaito Kidd's assistant will not be able to escape either.

Then, if we speculate about Kaito Kid based on the identity of his assistant, we might be able to uncover the identity of Kaito Kid.

Unfortunately, at the most important moment, Kaito Kidd chose to give up.

Suzuki Tomoko's face was full of disappointment, but she had to admit that Kaito Kid's choice was correct.

"What a shame! If it had been a little later, maybe it would have worked."

"No need to feel sorry."

Suzuki Shiro shook his head slightly.

"As a thief, his senses are undoubtedly sharp. If he had realized something was wrong and still walked into a trap that was doomed to fail, he wouldn't be such a famous thief."

"Besides, whether Kaito Kidd is caught this time or not, it won't be a bad thing for us and the police."

"We won't have our heirlooms stolen and then be left crying in the newspapers, and the police won't be called tax thieves by the public."

Although the result was not very beneficial, the Suzuki family was rare in that they could make a thief give up stealing.

"Even so..."

Suzuki Tomoko shook her head slightly.

Kaito Kid has already made his choice, so what else can she say?

I had no choice but to accept it.

After some commotion in the main hall, Kuroba Kaito decisively chose to leave.

He still has some time to take advantage of the chaos in the main hall.

Now all the guests have not entered yet, and the old man is still at the entrance, but it is obvious that he does not know that he has been exposed.

But the police should already be squatting at the entrance.

Kaito Kidd rushed to the entrance and did not continue to maintain his disguise, but quickly took off all his disguises.

"Kaito Kidd!"

People kept coming in, so naturally, Kuroba Kaito's behavior of taking off his disguise was noticed by others.

Sure enough, upon hearing the sound, many people at the entrance had already turned their attention over.

Kuroba Kaito, who had been prepared for a long time, threw several special flash bombs directly at the crowd.

The time to act is when the flash bomb takes effect.

So, we need to seize the opportunity.

And while in action, Kuroba Kaito had already put on sunglasses on his face.

The next moment, five points in the crowd burst out with dazzling white light, making it impossible for the guests and police to see anything clearly.

Seizing this opportunity, Kuroba Kaito quickly pulled Terai Kōnosuke, who was still distributing black pearl accessories, and quickly left the crowd here.

And take off the Kaito Kid costume as quickly as possible.

A white suit is too conspicuous.

But it is precisely because the white suit is too eye-catching that people will subconsciously look for people wearing white suits in the crowd after losing their vision.

After the flashbang effect wore off, Kuroba Kaito, now dressed in a black suit, had arrived at a position just outside the port entrance.

Terai Konosuke, who was just dressed as a staff member, has turned into an old gentleman in a gray suit, with a black top hat on his head and a cane in his hand, looking quite traditional.

The two pretended to board the ship.

It is very difficult to escape from the port here. There are layers of guards outside the port, and only the team at the port is safe enough.

Fortunately, the noise in front was loud enough and there was some commotion in front, otherwise the two of them would not have been able to slip into the team so easily.

Having completed this step, Kuroba Kaito slowly breathed a sigh of relief.

I didn't expect to be pushed to this point.

He sighed helplessly in his heart, this time he was really in big trouble.

Then he thought of Koizumi Akako's advice to him.

I didn't expect that what she said actually came true.

Is my luck so good that I actually ran into a Mrs. Suzuki who was willing to play such a big game with me?

But such a big drama still ended with his escape.

......0 ...

This is what made Kuroba Kaito feel regretful and frustrated.

He is not as strong as imagined, and there are times when he cannot cope with sudden situations.

Especially after someone abandoned the rules he thought he had figured out, the game without rules turned him from a veteran of the game into a complete rookie.

He just follows his past experience to deal with various situations.

But once his thoughts are seen through and his actions are understood, he will lose his mystery as a magician and will inevitably be caught.

There was such a person before.

Kuroba Kaito clearly remembered the last time someone cornered him, nearly getting him caught by the police.

It was only because of the police's activism that he found the opportunity.

But this time he did not lose because of his intelligence or his ability to act, but because of his persistence in winning.

Although he was also obsessed with victory, his rationality made him restrain his desire. He couldn't let his desire put Mr. Terai in danger.

There was just one thing he didn't understand.

The old man's disguise is perfect, how come someone can see through it?

Seeing so many policemen waiting at the entrance just now, Kuroba Kaito knew that Mr. Terai's identity must have been discovered.

So, if all the guests had boarded the ship just now, the matter would have been completely over.

PS: Please give me some information about the new book being put on the shelves.

Chapter 409 Satisfy Your Curiosity

After lining up again and entering the cruise ship in a more formal manner, the two walked to the corner, and Terai Huangzhisuke, who had changed his appearance, lowered his head slightly.

"Master, is there an accident?"

"Ah."

Kuroba Kaito nodded slightly.

"This incident has definitely exceeded my expectations. I didn't expect Mrs. Suzuki to play such a big game. Just to play this game with me, she actually threw her heirloom into a pile of real and fake items."

"I originally thought that Mrs. Suzuki wouldn't give things to others so easily, but when I saw the translucent black pearls on Mrs. Suzuki's chest, I knew that she really did it."

Only then did Terai Huangzhisuke understand why the young master reacted like that.

No matter how the young master planned, as long as Mrs. Suzuki gave away the heirloom Dark Star casually, it would mean that all the young master's plans would come to nothing.

And Terai Huangzhisuke finally understood why the young master chose to give up directly.

This is not about wanting to give up, but about losing the choice and having only one option left: giving up.

This is not a question of winning or losing, but the person who defines winning or losing has taken away all his own losses and left only the winning for himself.

Then the young master will have to accept the defeat.

"Besides, your transfer failed, and even your identity was exposed."

"!?"

Terai Huangzhisuke was slightly startled, then realized why the young master suddenly ran over and pulled him away.

Then she looked at the black pearl on her chest.

"This is real?"

"Ah."

Kuroba Kaito nodded slightly. The black pearl on the old man’s chest was real.

"It's clear that this is a genuine black pearl, but its quality is probably not as good as the dark star, and its color isn't pure. However, there's no doubt that this black pearl is worth a lot."

"At least over a million."

Terai Huang Zhisuke couldn't help but take a breath when he heard this. He was not shocked by the price of each item, but was shocked by Mrs. Suzuki's courage.

Looking around, everyone present was given a black pearl accessory.

"I've observed that more than 30% of the people who received black pearls were of this grade. Each one is worth over a million."

"Then there's Mrs. Suzuki, who's wearing pure, translucent black pearls."

"Black pearls are ultimately made of calcium carbonate, which is easily corroded by acids. Furthermore, as time passes, even the purest black pearls lose their translucence, so those are brand new black pearls."

"And several people at the venue were wearing black pearls, like Mrs. Suzuki."

"As for the number of black pearls that meet the dark star standards, there are quite a few. According to my guess, there are at least 20% of them, and among these 20% there is the only genuine one.

Dark Star."

"Faced with this situation, even Dad wouldn't be able to find where one of the real ones is."

Having said that, Kuroba Kaito lowered his head helplessly.

"As for the black pearls worn by those associated with the Suzuki Zaibatsu, they also don't meet the requirements for Dark Stars. In other words, Mrs. Suzuki has truly dispersed Dark Stars among both genuine and counterfeit items."

"This is beyond the point where speculation and observation can reveal the authenticity of the artifact."

After losing the ability to explore the rules of human nature, Kuroba Kaito also lost the ability to find the true dark star.

This is the reason why Kuroba Kaito had no choice but to surrender.

In the showdown between financial resources, decisiveness, perseverance and the will to win, he was completely defeated.

It's really ironic. It was he who invited Mrs. Suzuki to a duel, but when he saw the result, he had no choice but to run away.

So faced with such a situation, Kuroba Kaito had no choice but to be stubborn, otherwise Mrs. Suzuki and the police would really send him to jail.

Once he is caught by the police, everything will be over for him.

If he fails to catch the organization that assassinated his father, it may even attract the attention of that organization, bringing disaster to his friends.

As long as you have some concerns in your heart, you will feel restrained when facing people who have no taboos.

And this is how Kuroba Kaito feels when facing Mrs. Suzuki.

He was a man without any taboos, but he felt restrained in front of Mrs. Suzuki.

Especially when he guessed that Mr. Terai was being targeted, he admitted that he was completely panicked...

He could admit his failure, but he could not admit that he was arrested by the police.
