Phantom Thief of Heart in Conan

"I can testify that every word on this card is true!"

Hearing the sudden voice from Takahashi Ryoichi, everyone present became more excited, especially those from the film club. After being contacted by the contents of the notice letter, their expressions changed drastically, and they suddenly thought of what happened in the past.

It was a tragedy.

"The card said that the person who was plagiarized committed suicide... Could it be that it was Atsuko?" Suzuki Ayako, who had always been gentle and quiet, was now disturbed by the gradually revealed truth and couldn't help but speak.

"In this way, every time Atsuko is mentioned, Chikako always has the most intense reaction!" Hiroki Kakutani, who was stopping Chikako Ikeda, also had the same suspicion as Suzuki Ayako. Although Ota Masaru did not speak, he said

The hand that controlled Chikako Ikeda unknowingly became stronger.

Seeing that her classmates began to doubt herself, Chikako Ikeda became even more manic. She tried hard to get rid of the control of the two men and yelled hoarsely:

"Let me go! Wouldn't you rather believe a slanderous letter from an unknown source?"

After hearing this, Suzuki Ayako and the others showed doubts again, but Takahashi Ryoichi, who knew all the truth, would not let Chikako Ikeda off so easily. He secretly held the dagger hidden in his pocket and shouted:

"You still want to deny it! Do you think you are the only one who has read the script written by Atsuko? I have also read the unpublished "Kingdom of Kongse", and its plot is clearly different from yours.

"The Blue Kingdom" is exactly the same!"

"Before she committed suicide, Atsuko called me and told me the whole story! It was you, the devil, who took away the honor that should have belonged to Atsuko, forcing her to despair and choose suicide!"

Having said that, Takahashi Ryoichi suddenly pulled out the dagger hidden on his body and rushed in the direction of Chikako Ikeda without hesitation! Everyone present was so shocked by this shocking truth that for a moment they didn't notice Takahashi Ryoichi's hand.

Only the vigilant Conan, with quick eyes and quick hands, snatched the snack box from Sonoko's hand and kicked it towards the possessed Ryoichi Takahashi.

Because of the emergency, Conan did not have time to activate the foot strength enhancer installed in his sneakers. The power of this kick could barely stop Takahashi Ryoichi's footsteps temporarily, but it could not completely make him lose the ability to move.

But this kick was enough time for others to react. Xiaolan was the first to step forward, put on a karate stance, and kicked the dagger in Ryoichi Takahashi's hand into two pieces with a high kick! And the two

The man also temporarily let go of Chikako Ikeda, who was frightened to tears, and ran over to help Xiaolan control Takahashi Ryoichi, who wanted to kill someone.

Suddenly, what was originally a joyful party suddenly turned into a carnival of sin and hatred. Roars, screams and cries rang out one after another in this mountain villa, playing a tragic and manic symphony.

In this chaotic world, Conan said nothing and picked up the temporarily forgotten notice letter.

"Phantom Thief, where are you hiding now?"

…………

After being in a hurry for a while, everyone finally settled down under the leadership of Suzuki Ayako. Born in the Suzuki Foundation, she fully demonstrated her skills as a lady, and soon the whole situation was under control.

Under her arrangement, Takahashi Ryoichi, who intended to commit murder, was temporarily controlled in a corner. Chikako Ikeda, who was frightened and almost collapsed, although she was not treated by Takahashi Ryoichi, was watched closely by several pairs of eyes.

Get away from yourself.

"Why don't you believe me! Look at Takahashi's crazy look, can you really believe what he says?" Chikako Ikeda still wanted to deny it at this time, "Until now, except for this crazy card,

, there is no evidence to prove that I plagiarized!"

"Humph, of course there is no evidence! Because Atsuko, who you plagiarized, has died of despair!" Takahashi Ryoichi, who was tied in the corner, sneered, "You vicious woman, are you still unwilling to plead guilty?"

"I didn't plagiarize at all, why should I plead guilty!" After confirming that Takahashi Ryoichi could not harm herself, Chikako Ikeda, who had been crying for her father and mother just now, immediately returned to her original arrogant look, relying on the fact that there is currently no evidence that can prove her crime.

evidence and refused to admit guilt.

"Takahashi, do you think this card that is based on suspicion can ruin my reputation? Hum, let me tell you, I am not afraid of your slander!"

"Well, this warning letter should not have been written by Mr. Takahashi..." At this time, Xiaolan, an outsider, suddenly interjected. She took the warning letter confiscated from Conan just now and handed it in front of everyone.

"Actually," Xiaolan explained to the puzzled crowd, "I had seen similar cards when I was working on cases with my father. Ah, I forgot to mention that my father was a well-known detective.

"

"This should be a warning letter sent by a criminal who calls himself 'Phantom Thief'."

"Phantom Thief? Is he the Phantom Thief who made a fuss a few days ago?" At this time, Yuanzi also remembered the social news that he accidentally caught a few days ago when reading gossip, "But isn't that something like an urban legend?"

"No!" At this time, Conan ran over and explained to Xiaolan with a high face, "The Phantom Thief is real!"

"His first warning letter was sent to a stalker. Then the stalker changed his ways and voluntarily surrendered to the police."

"The second time, he sent a notice letter to the director of Mihua Library. The notice letter was later published in the newspaper, but it did not cause much trouble." Conan continued, explaining to everyone.

Regarding information about Phantom Thief, "But what the media has not reported so far is that the target in the notice letter has now surrendered to the police and admitted his crime."

"Conan," Xiaolan patted Conan's back worriedly, "Can you really tell others this kind of information? Didn't Officer Megure say it should be kept secret for the time being?"

"It doesn't matter. The news of Director Tsukawa's surrender should be reported by the news media next week. We just leaked it a little early. Moreover, everyone in this house has been implicated in the preview letter of Phantom Thief.

Anyone involved in an incident is considered a party to the incident."

"Anyway, what I...sister Xiaolan want to tell everyone is, sister Chikako Ikeda, you have been targeted by the Phantom Thief who can make people repent!"

"Judging from the circumstances of these two incidents, I'm afraid he will come to visit you soon, and you will take the initiative to reveal the hidden crimes!"
