The Phantom Thief of Heart! But Conan

Chapter 557 Tangze: You don’t want to lose your horse or something like that—ah? It's not me, that's okay.

When the blame was put on his own head, Tang Ze actually felt a little guilty.

On the one hand, he jumped into the sea to scare the prisoners and fully complete the goal he set for himself, "Since he has no special abilities, he can make people insane with his strength." On the other hand, he wanted to attract the attention of the detectives. He had to use his strength to prevent them from discovering that there were three more crew members on board.

This is actually just out of caution. Under normal circumstances, the number of crew members on a cruise ship will not attract others' attention. What's more, the cruise ship they sailed to the Ogasawara Islands had far more staff on board than passengers. But what did Tangze do anyway.

When a murder occurs and someone is missing, everyone on the ship has a reason to gather together. A wave of operations can gather enough monsters to make it easier for teammates to move to the guest room.

In any case, it will take time to replace the 400 million banknotes, take away the bombs, and take Ye Caisan's name stamp from Whalei Sadao. If they don't make some noise, they are a bunch of non-professional phantom thieves. Very easy to reveal.

But it was actually quite difficult to reasonably explain his actions to Toru Amuro, so after Karasawa calmed down, he added details.

"There are not many passengers on the ship, there are a lot of staff, and the overall space is large. In fact, it is an easy space to hide people. I searched the ship after the case and was attacked by the murderer. I felt that it exposed my ability to fight back too much. It’s not a good thing… Anyway, I just want to keep a low profile as much as possible.”

Toru Amuro raised his eyebrows, and didn't say whether he believed him or not. He picked up the soup in front of him and took a sip.

He was in a very rhythmic state and looked at ease. Looking at his performance, Tang Ze secretly thought that something was wrong.

This was obviously not just about getting an answer from him, but more like asking him to check whether he could get the correct information after discovering some key information.

Oops, could it be said that my vest is really not tight enough...

Although he was mentally prepared to be discovered by the coops in the future, how could he be exposed so early!

If Toru Amuro wants to reckon with what he did before now...

Tangze groaned secretly.

"Really? Do you really think so?" After taking a sip of soup and picking up a chopstick of vegetables, Toru Amuro ended his observation of Karasawa and slowed down his speech and said, "What do I think, you What have you been hiding from me?"

Really, which one are you asking about?

Tang Ze was thinking this in his heart, and asked calmly on his face: "Is there any? I don't have anything to hide from you, right?"

"Really? How did you confirm that the Phantom Thief of Heart was on the ship, just by relying on a piece of news?" Toru Amuro stared at Karasawa's face with a very penetrating gaze, "Don't you think you are like this? Is your reaction too much? It’s so much that you almost seem to be deliberately diverting attention for someone.”

Karasawa's chewing movements paused for a second.

It’s over, it’s all over.jpg

He knew that Toru Amuro could be considered more or less a guy with detective abilities. Considering the nature of his profession, he might be better at observing people than a detective who focused on physical evidence and solving puzzles, but he was so keen. , is it really good?

Shouldn't he be a joker who loses his horse in Coop 4? No, it's so embarrassing.

His state of hesitation and self-doubt was clearly visible to Toru Amuro.

He knew that this damn boy had a lot of things he was hiding.

After adjusting her sitting posture slightly, Toru Amuro leaned forward and let the chandelier on the top of the dining table pass through the gap between her bangs, casting a very oppressive shadow on her face: "You haven't said it yet, right? You have to ask me directly. Pick it out? You didn’t notice the Phantom Thief of Heart at all, huh?”

Hearing this title uttered from Toru Amuro's mouth again, Karasawa slowly swallowed the food in his mouth and slowly put down the bowl and chopsticks.

He knew that Toru Amuro's food was not that delicious.

Should this be called the Hongmen Banquet or the Suicide Rice?

But no matter what the name was, Toru Amuro would choose to let Yuya Kazami bring the others over directly. He must have confirmed some information, and without giving him a chance to react or cover up, he was ready to attack directly and win in one fell swoop.

Since you can sit at the same table and eat calmly instead of directly preparing an interrogation room to serve, it at least means that you don't mean to be particularly angry, right?

After a brief psychological struggle, Karasawa chose for a moment between "painful introspection" and "honest admission of his mistakes", and showed a compromise state of "I know I was wrong, don't scold me", lowered his eyes, and was ready to accept Toru Amuro's confession honestly. of liquidation.

"You are indeed hiding a lot of things from me..." Seeing Karasawa lowering his head, giving up the struggle and going for the kill, Amuro revealed a victorious smile, "You discovered the joker's identity, or maybe , you have a certain connection with him, right?"

"Well, I..." Karasawa's eyes shifted a bit, and he began to think about how to confess to avoid being exposed to bears.

Before he opened his mouth, Toru Amuro had already spoken preemptively.

"So, Kudo Shinichi is indeed the Kaitou Joker, right?"

"……ah?"

"Tell me the truth, what's going on with the kid named Conan upstairs?"

"ah???"

"What's wrong?" Hattori Heiji saw the little girl leading the way suddenly stopped and couldn't help but stop too.

"Hmm... there is a subtle feeling..." Haiyuan Ai rubbed the spine at the back of his neck, wondered for a moment, then shook his head, "Forget it, maybe it's because he stayed up late for too long."

She couldn't tell what it felt like, but she probably had a bad premonition.

It's like, after a few kilometers away from home, you suddenly start to wonder if you forgot to lock the door when you went out, or forget to turn off the gas stove. There is a feeling of being on tenterhooks, but not quite sure.

She had felt this way before. Basically, whenever she had this premonition, it meant that her experiment had encountered a new problem.

But her recent experiments have been going smoothly, and there have been no laboratory accidents...

Haibara Ai thought about it for a while in confusion, unable to find the source of this perception, so she had to give up and continue leading Hattori Heiji to the doctor's house.

My uncle once said that she is a person who is very suitable for the study of cognitive mysteries because she has some special sensing abilities at the spiritual level, which are like intuition.

Feedback on the specific level of life is that she can be keenly aware of the aura of organizational members, and can make guesses about people's general status during a face-to-face meeting.

But how to deal with this kind of intuition that it seems that danger is out of the question and safety is a bit worrying?

"The greening is nice." Hattori Heiji, who was wondering what the little girl was rubbing her neck in confusion, sighed with emotion as he walked into Dr. Agasa's courtyard.

"The doctor is not married, not in love, and lives here alone, so he did not build a house as big as Kudo's family." Haibara Ai simply explained, took out a bunch of keys from his pocket, and skillfully found one of them. With one hand, he walked up the steps and started to open the door.

The sharp-eyed Hattori Heiji saw the five or six keys connected in a chain at a glance, and was secretly confused.

Doesn’t it mean that the house is not as big as Kudo’s house? Then why are there so many keys?

Or maybe this is her own thing? That's right, she was taken in with a new identity because her body suddenly shrunk like Kudo and she had to hide from the organization's sight.

However, several of them look like house keys in size...

"Xiao Ai, are you finally back? Why are you so busy so late?" Dr. A Li, who was soldering circuit boards while wearing goggles and without raising his goggles, asked directly when he heard the noise at the door.

"I went out too late. There are some special samples that need to be collected...I stopped by the convenience store for a late-night snack." Haibara Ai said without changing his expression and gave up his seat, "I met someone on the way back. I saw this guy making trouble in front of Kudo's house, so I called him over. Kudo's house has been empty for many days, and he had to clean up when he got in. I heard him say that he wanted to stay for a short period of time, so I brought him over."

"Huh? A new family?" Dr. Agasa raised his head in surprise and saw Hattori Heiji's iconic dark complexion at a glance. He suddenly realized, "Oh, you are the detective from Kansai, right?"

"Yes, I am Hattori Heiji. Hello, sorry to bother you." Hattori Heiji adjusted the bag he was carrying on one shoulder and bowed politely. From the corner of his eye, he watched Haibara Ai take off his white coat and face him. Walk towards the coffee table.

"Doctor, it's getting late, do you need coffee?"

"Well, let's have a drink. The work at hand will take a while... Come on, Hattori-san, come and sit down!"

"I'm disturbing you so late. Kudo's, um, 'weapons' were all made by you, right?"

"Did he even tell you this? Hahahaha, it's just a little gadget. Well, if Karasawa is here, then everyone in Japan who knows Conan's true identity will be here. We can all be considered friends, Right, don’t be formal.”

Can this still be considered a connection...?

Hattori Heiji responded with a smile, while he couldn't help but think back to the encounter with Haibara Ai ten minutes ago.

She just came from one side of the road and found him. After talking to him, she took him forward and walked to Dr. A Li.

How could he remember that the convenience store he saw on the road seemed to be on the other side?

"What's wrong, Conan, are you feeling uncomfortable?" Mao Lilan, who was wearing home clothes and wiping her hair after taking a shower, walked out and saw the little boy curled up into a shrimp, nestled on the sofa, and couldn't help but feel a little worried. .

"The kid stayed up so late and ran around in the sea breeze for so long. I'm afraid he has a cold." Mouri Kogoro stretched and stood up.

"Well, it will indeed be a bit cold at sea..." Mao Lilan sat down next to Conan and patted his back, "Are you okay? Does it hurt somewhere?"

"...I'm fine." Conan raised his head while covering his mouth and nose with both hands, and replied in a muffled voice, "I just feel... sneeze, sneeze—!"

As soon as he opened his mouth to speak, a series of sneezes hit him so hard that his glasses almost flew out. He could only helplessly hold on to them with one hand and roll them up again.

What's going on, this feeling that something is terribly wrong...!

"It seems like I really have a cold..."

Mao Lilan observed his uncomfortable state for a while, thought about it, got up and walked towards the kitchen.

Although she had a lot of suspicions recently... but looking at his uncomfortable state, she would still feel worried reflexively.

...In other words, if her guess is true, then she should be doubly worried.

Let’s make a bowl of hot soup. It’s getting late, so drinking something warm will make it easier to fall asleep.

Mao Lilan quickly put down her uneasiness and worries and quickened her pace.

Taking care of uncomfortable children is what she should do.

If, if he is...then he should be taken care of and settled.

Conan, who had just straightened up, sneezed out again, bent down again, and returned to the state of a ball.

Why does it feel worse and worse? Who is it, who is behind it...

————

"Why do you think so..."

Karasawa looked at Toru Amuro, who was very confident, with a strange expression of shock.

No, can he understand the last sentence? Conan's vest is a secret that can be exposed by anyone except the organization. If Kudo Shinichi counts down, he is basically surfing the Internet under his real name. If Toru Amuro finds out, he will find out.

Anyway, after the people in the red party came into contact with Conan himself, they would soon recognize his IQ and not care about him anesthetizing others to sing a double act. It would not be a big problem if they knew about it.

Most people can't discover Conan's identity because the reverse growth is too weird.

You see, Akai Shuichi, after discovering the situation of Haibara Ai, drew inferences from one example without Karasawa's need to explain. After following him for two or three days, he was convinced that Conan was Kudo Shinichi without asking any questions, and he passed on this conclusion. Gave it to Judy.

It is estimated that after a while, Belmode's selection of one of the three will officially begin.

But, but, where did the mysterious association come from in the first half of the sentence!

Karasawa couldn't help but think of all the weird and weird Phantom Thief group names he had seen when he used the online function to trigger assistance from other Phantom Thieves when he was playing P5.

What about "the leader is Akechi Goro", what about "Akechi Goro Support Club", what about "akechifans" and the like...

Karasawa suddenly had the urge to go to Kaitou CH and change their group name to "Kudo Shinichi and his friends".

"I'm afraid it's too late to continue to act stupid now." Toru Amuro snorted, suppressed one of his eyebrows, and made a slightly dangerous expression, "If you know something and don't report it, the nature of some things is very serious. "

This was not the first time that he had questions about the primary school student upstairs.

In the last case, due to doubts about Edogawa Conan, he handed over the name to Team Zero to investigate relevant information.

The answer that came back was surprising, but it was also what he expected.

"The police have already investigated. Edogawa Conan and Edogawa Fumina, who claims to be his mother, are both pseudonyms." Seeing that Karasawa refused to admit it, Amuro Toru picked up a piece of fish with the aroma of rice wine and slowly Slowly began to talk about his discovery, "'Edogawa' is a small surname with a relatively small number of users. Although the household registration system in various places is not easy to integrate, this surname is really special. After our repeated confirmation, Japan does not There is no birth certificate registered as 'Edogawa Conan'."

Once it was confirmed that the child's identity was most likely a forgery, his age-inappropriate thinking and reaction abilities suddenly became particularly prominent.

Of course, Tangze's behavior also became outstanding because of this.

"Last time, when Kyousuke Futo went to pursue you in Dorobiga Park, I made some accidental discoveries. A few months ago, I handed over a piece of information about a gang-related company related to the Mudakukai. Gin, he used this information to blackmail people from related companies...

"On the same day, a murder occurred in Dorobiga Park. Due to a special technique, the murderer took advantage of his extraordinary physical fitness and used a piano wire to directly decapitate the deceased on a moving roller coaster while passing through the tunnel. This very eye-catching criminal method has received special pages in many media. The person who solved the case was high school detective Kudo Shinichi - which happened to be the last case he solved on record. "

Having said this, Toru Amuro narrowed his eyes and looked at Karasawa carefully.

Why on earth is it that Tangze, who was accompanying Mao Lilan to Dorobiga to retrieve her lost memories, was able to recover one step ahead of her...

He originally thought that this was because Tangze's symptoms were milder. After all, Mao Lilan had lost all his memory, while Tangze had only lost the past few months.

However, after careful review, he felt that maybe the answer was not like this.

Perhaps it was because Dorobiga Park itself might have reminded Karasawa of his arrival in Tokyo, so Karasawa suddenly recovered.

"It's a coincidence that that day happens to be the day when you complete the formalities and transfer to Tokyo."

After hearing these words, Tang Ze straightened his back.

WOC, stop talking. If you want to take off your vest, just do it. If you keep talking, I feel like the dimensional wall will break!

Not knowing the real reason for Karasawa's sudden nervousness, Toru Amuro just thought that what he mentioned was exactly what he wanted, so he shook his head and continued: "On the same day, the Mori Detective Agency upstairs had an extra person staying here. A distant relative. That child, Edogawa Conan."

"Oh, by the way, I was so busy dealing with your problem that I didn't even notice... I accompanied you to Didan High School to complete your enrollment. On the way back, I happened to bump into Miss Mao Lilan who was bringing Conan home. What a coincidence. Ah, isn’t it?”

Oops, if the conversation continues, it feels like it's going to go in some weird direction.

How could he explain that the strange fate between himself and Conan was because they were the protagonists of two stitched works, and they were brought together to start the plot?

So Karasawa simply dropped his pick and said categorically: "Yes, you guessed it right, Edogawa Conan is Kudo Shinichi!"

"A-ah sneeze——"

"Hurry up and drink the soup. Really, they say you really have a cold..."
