Phantom Thief of Heart in Conan

"So, you still failed to catch the Phantom Thief?" Kurusu Akatsuki poured a cup of tea for Conan who came to visit again, "Looking at your depressed look, you must be very unwilling, right?"

"Of course." Conan grimaced and replied listlessly, "The Phantom Thief committed the crime right under my nose. What a shame and humiliation!"

"Then, my dear Mr. Detective, in the past three days since the case ended, have you figured out the Phantom Thief's modus operandi?"

At this time, the Chikako Ikeda incident had ended for three days. During these three days, the news of Tsugawa Hideharu's drug trafficking crimes and his surrender were finally made public. As a result, the preview letter for Phantom Thief was copied by various media.

Fan.

However, at present, most people still only think that Phantom Thief is an insider of the incident, and the purpose of issuing the notice letter is just to expose Tsukawa Hideharu's crimes to the public.

"No clue at all! I really don't know how Phantom Thief committed the crime!" Conan scratched his head irritably. He had never been so helpless before. "After all, is there really such an effective and rapid brainwashing technology?

"

"You can rejuvenate yourself and become a child, so what does it mean to be brainwashed?"

"...What you said makes sense. No matter how much I don't want to believe it, I should believe the facts that are already in front of me."

"In short, even I can't solve the mystery of the Phantom Thief until new clues emerge. Damn it, if I can restore Kudo Shinichi's identity, I can legitimately participate in the Metropolitan Police Department's investigation!"

I see, the Metropolitan Police Department has already launched an investigation into me. Kurusu Akatsuki took the information Conan inadvertently revealed to heart. He said calmly:

"Although I sympathize with you, from a personal standpoint, I don't want the Phantom Thief's identity to be revealed."

"I understand, you regard him as your benefactor!" Conan did not understand the deeper meaning of Akatsuki Kurusu's words, and only thought that he was grateful to "the Phantom Thief who made him repent."

"It's understandable that you don't want your reformed benefactor to fall into the law. After all, that Phantom Thief has only been seeking justice so far... By the way, Kurusu! I have a good idea!"

"...Doesn't it feel like a good idea?"

"Kurusu, it suddenly occurred to me that you could cooperate with the Metropolitan Police on my behalf!" Conan's eyes lit up, thinking that his idea was brilliant, "Think about it, you, who may be a victim of Phantom Thief, are involved in this

It is reasonable and reasonable in this incident, plus my recommendation from Kudo Shinichi..."

"I refuse! I said, I don't want the Phantom Thief's identity to be revealed."

"Tch, forget it." Conan lay back on the sofa disappointedly, but within a few minutes, a new idea popped into the kid's mind:

"By the way, Kurusu! I have another idea!"

"I reject!"

"Don't refuse in a hurry, just listen to what I have to say!" Conan rejected Akatsuki Kurusu's refusal and went on to express his own thoughts, "Kurusu, do you want to be a high school detective?"

"...I understand, you want me to replace classmate Maori's father and be your detective puppet, right?"

"You understood it quickly! What do you think? My suggestion is good, and it will be good for you. If you become a high school detective, you can also prove to the police that you are truly repentant! And I think with your memory and

As long as your eyesight is trained for a period of time, you can detect cases without my help. By then, you will be a veritable high school detective!"

"It sounds good, but I refuse!" Kurusu Akira rejected Conan's proposal again. "I'm not interested in being a detective, and I don't really like to come into contact with corpses and murder scenes. I just want to live my life smoothly and smoothly."

After listening to Kurusu Akatsuki's explanation, Conan sat back disappointed again. He could understand Kurusu Akatsuki's thoughts. Not everyone is willing to deal with murder cases.

"Forget it, and after all, I shouldn't involve you in my own troubles. I didn't think carefully enough, I'm sorry." Conan apologized to Akatsuki, but then he changed the subject and said

Akatsuki Laisi said:

"By the way, Kurusu. Do you still remember those unnecessary words you said in Xiaolan's ears last time?"

"That thing... you've made me numb, what else do you want?"

"Don't think about just getting away with it! I already feel that something is wrong with the way Xiaolan looks at me recently, especially after she came back from the villa last weekend, she became even more suspicious of me!"

"That's because you didn't disguise yourself. What does it have to do with me?"

"In the final analysis, it's you who created doubts for Xiaolan first! In short, you have to help me get through this matter! You take this first!" Conan took out a tie from his pocket and threw it into Akatsuki Kurusu's hand.

"This is the spare voice changer I got from Dr. A Li. You should familiarize yourself with how to use it first. After Xiaolan's suspicion fully attacks, you can use it to cover me. Do you understand?"

"You are really full of bad ideas." Kurusu Akatsuki was still cursing, but his hands had already put the bow tie-shaped voice changer into his pocket. For him, this voice changer was an unexpected surprise. If only

In the future, when the Phantom Thief needs to appear in the real world, this voice changer can save him a lot of unnecessary trouble.

The famous detective, who was completely unaware of his own behavior of collaborating with the enemy, was still concentrating on explaining to Akatsuki Kurusu how to imitate Kudo Shinichi's speaking habits and the key points of deceiving Ran.

"...The general precautions are the above. Have you written them down?"

"Well, I've written it all down. As expected of a famous detective, he can even plan things like cheating on his girlfriend so carefully. It seems that you have lied to classmate Maori a lot in the past!"

"Stop blabbering, you are not responsible for things turning out like this! I will contact you first when the time comes. At that time, just do as I say and call the office using Kudo Shinichi's voice!"

"Don't worry, Detective! In terms of acting skills, I think I'm much better than you! Fortunately, you are the son of the famous actress Kudo Yukiko, tsk tsk tsk!"

After chatting for a while, Kurusu Akatsuki sent Conan back to the Mori Detective Agency, and the two said goodbye for the time being.

After the tea party with the famous detective, Kurusu Akatsuki finally had the opportunity to tear off the mask on his face and reveal the unknown side of him as the Phantom Thief.

Next, it’s time for Phantom Thief to take action.
