Conan: Another Famous Detective

"Thank you, Father Terai!" Kuroba Kaito smiled and took the drink handed over by Terai Kinosuke. After thanking him, he turned to Hanomiya Akira:

"Then Yumiya, what do you want to talk to me about?"

Akira Hanomiya took a sip of the mixed juice and smiled slightly: "I'm actually very curious. As far as I know, Kaito Kidd should have been targeting a gem called Pandora."

"Eh? Pandora's gem, what is that?" Nakamori Aoko asked in confusion.

The last time he and Kuroba Kaito talked about Pandora, Nakamori Aoko was not present, so she didn't know about it.

Akira Hanomiya briefly talked about the relationship between Kaito Kid and Pandora.

"So there is such a thing!" Nakamori Aoko suddenly realized, and then said curiously:

"Then Kaitou Kidd is after this gem? Does he want to live forever?"

"Maybe, who knows?" In front of Nakamori Aoko, Hamamiya Akira didn't intend to reveal too much.

He turned his eyes to Kuroba Kaito again and continued:

"Both the appearance of the egg of memories and the information that has been released should not meet the definition of Pandora's gem."

"Also, fifty Memory Eggs have been discovered before, and now this one is the fifty-first. Pandora's gem is unique, and the number of Memory Eggs does not match."

"So I don't understand why Kaitou Kidd is interested in the Egg of Memory?"

"Who knows what such an elusive thief is thinking?" Before Kuroba Kaito could speak, Nakamori Aoko said with an unhappy expression.

"This person really has a problem. He likes to steal things in public and then return them. Although according to you, Detective Hanomiya, he is looking for some Pandora gem."

"But can't he confirm it in a slightly more secretive way? He has the ability to steal it quietly and return it quietly. Why does he have to play with the police and the owners of those treasures like this?"

Nakamori Aoko looked obviously excited, because since the appearance of Kaitou Kidd, his father Nakamori Ginzo has always been worried about Kaitou Kidd, a thief.

He even fell ill several times while chasing Kidd.

She really doesn't like Kaito Kidd at all!

"Well, maybe Kaitou Kidd has his own purpose for doing this, right?" Kuroba Kaito said with a smile.

Seeing Aoko hating Kaitou Kidd so much, he felt uncomfortable.

"Even if he had some purpose, it was not the reason for him to play tricks on the police!" Nakamori Aoko looked unhappy.

"Then what purpose does Mr. Kuroyu think he has?" Yu Gongming asked with a smile.

Kuroba Kaito's eyebrows twitched, but he still said haha: "I'm not a famous detective like you, how could I possibly guess what the purpose of Kaito Kidd is!"

Meng Yu on the side glanced at Kuroba Kaito with a half-smile, and suddenly said: "Then do you want to hear our opinions?"

Kuroba Kaito was stunned for a moment, and then felt slightly awe-inspiring.

He tried his best to maintain a natural expression and said with a smile, "Then I'm all ears."

"Come on, detective, it's your turn to perform." Meng Yu looked at Yu Gongming with a smile.

"Don't come here!" Yu Gongming cursed with a smile, then his expression became serious.

"Actually, if we want to speculate on what his purpose is, we have to look at the impact of his actions."

"First of all, he is on the wanted list of the countries where he committed the crime, and even the Interpol. This has no benefit except causing trouble for himself, so this should not be his purpose."

"Second, his own fame is world-renowned, which is the most intuitive benefit for him."

"Fame itself can satisfy his own vanity, and the things that come with fame may also bring additional benefits."

"His huge fame allows him to raise his price when accepting certain commissions, such as stealing a bank's safe or stealing some company's trade secrets."

"Many notorious thieves will get involved in this area after becoming famous. Is it not surprising that Kaitou Kidd can not only look for Pandora but also make some money for himself?"

"So, he played tricks on the police in order to accept such a shameful commission?" Nakamori Aoko asked.

"I'm not, I didn't!" Kuroba Kaito roared in his heart, but he could only look like he was listening attentively.

Hearing this, Yu Gongming smiled and said: "This is just a possibility. There is another possibility. He wants to attract the attention of some people by making a name for himself."

"Attract...attention?" Nakamori Aoko seemed to not understand what Hanomiya Akira meant.

"Because based on the information I reviewed and my personal encounter with Kaito Kidd, the Kaitou Kidd who appears now should not be the same person as the one eighteen years ago."

"What? Not alone?" Nakamori Aoko exclaimed.

Kuroba Kaito was also shocked!

Although he had already realized that the other party might have known his identity from the last time when Yu Gongming and his two men approached him.

It is not surprising to speculate that the Kaitou Kidd who reappeared is not the same person from more than ten years ago.

But when he actually heard the other person say it himself, his mood was still a bit complicated.

Akira Hanomiya observed the reactions of Kuroba Nakamori and Kuroba Nakamori, and continued: "Yes, Kaitou Kidd more than ten years ago, although his stealing techniques were equally gorgeous, his actions were more sophisticated than now."

"And the current one has a more flamboyant style. Logically speaking, if the Kaitou Kidd is the same person now as he was more than ten years ago, then after more than ten years, he should be at least forty years old."

"But now Kaitou Kidd gives people a younger and more energetic feel, and frankly speaking, his level has declined."

"Ah! Don't get me wrong, this is not the judgment I made, but the judgment made by his old rival, Mengyu's father, Mr. Kudo Yusaku, after learning about Kaito Kidd."

"So, I think the current Kaito Kidd is more like the successor or imitator of the previous Kaito Thief?"

"But I tend to be the inheritor."

"Oh? Couldn't he be an imitator?" Kuroba Kaito asked.

"Haha..." Akira Hanamiya chuckled and didn't reply. He just looked at Kuroba Kaito meaningfully.

Kuroba Kaito's scalp felt numb when he was stared at, so he forced a smile and asked: "What's wrong?"

Yu Gongming looked back and said with a smile: "It's nothing, it's just that I think he is the inheritor. It involves a friend of mine, so I can't disclose it to you. I'm sorry."

"Ah! It's okay, it's okay, I just want to ask." Kuroba Kaito said quickly,

Akira Hanomiya nodded lightly and continued: "The disappearance of Kaitou Kidd eighteen years ago was full of weirdness. Perhaps, this inheritor wants to use this fame to find out the truth about the disappearance of the previous generation of Kaitou Kidd. Maybe?"

When Yu Gongming said this, he suddenly curled up his lips: "No matter what purpose he wants to achieve with this fame."

"Being famous will also bring unknown dangers, and sometimes dangers may appear from unexpected places!"

Kuroba Kaito's eyes narrowed slightly, and the smile disappeared from his face: "Where did Detective Hanomiya start with these words?"
