The Phantom Thief of Heart! But Conan

"It's a bit scary..." Mao Lilan retracted her hand and looked at the photo with a sympathetic heart.

She thought it was just a simple repeated exposure that caused a ghost-like effect, and she had no expectation of this visual effect.

She was like this, and the protagonist of the photo, Mikyo Masahiko, was even more pale. Then he raised his head and looked at the photographer of the photo, Tang Ze, with a subtle look.

If it was just a photo with a problem, he might not have any thoughts in his mind.

But this abnormal photo was born after Tang Ze's meaningful speech...

Tang Ze noticed his gaze and smiled calmly.

He didn't do anything with the photo. If he had to say where he did it, it was that he used some special means to let everyone see the real picture of another world through the lens.

In the perspective of Tang Ze's third eye, Mikyo Masahiko now looks like this in the photo.

Previously, after the Twin Towers incident, Maori Kogoro's suddenly upgraded coop provided him with a new ability, which was called "specialized visual enhancement" just by looking at the name of the weapon.

Based on Maori Kogoro's coop skill, which initially gave him the visual enhancement of the third eye, Tang Ze didn't take it seriously at the time, but when he had time, he tried it a little and was shocked.

This skill with a seemingly ordinary name actually has the effect of covering his vision on the recording device he holds.

This is an ability with many restrictions on use, and it seems a bit useless at first glance, but after actual testing, this recording device is very wide, and it is completely feasible for him to pick up his mobile phone, turn on the camera and start a live broadcast.

Similarly, the camera he installed, the camera he operated...

Although this is not the first time that his ability can work on other people, it is self-evident that he can share this world in his eyes that is completely different from everyone else. The impact on Tang Ze is self-evident.

Looking back at the description of this skill, there is a feeling that the fewer words, the bigger the matter.

Mikyou Masahiko was fortunate to become one of the first internal test users by relying on his special attributes, and Tang Ze felt that he should feel honored for this.

"It might be the light problem at that time." Seeing that the atmosphere had cooled down, Suzuki Sonoko quickly pulled back the ominous photo, "Normally, I also took a 'ghost' when there was a problem with the installation before."

"Yes, there is indeed such a phenomenon." Tang Ze nodded with a smile, "This photo is very similar."

Just look at Mikyou Masahiko's ominous and violent image in the photo, isn't it a ghost?

"Ah, 'ghost', then maybe the rumors about the restaurant before are similar." Mao Lilan, who was almost scaring herself after thinking about it for a while, quickly nodded vigorously, "It's very likely that something that doesn't exist will be exposed twice, right?"

She was almost trying to convince herself with what she said, and also pulled Mikyou Masahiko, who was faintly sweating, back from the illusion of fear.

"Yes, that's definitely the case." He took a deep breath, first confirmed Mao Lilan's conclusion, and then naturally proposed tomorrow's schedule, "It just so happens that although the restaurant in the hotel here is unexpectedly good, I promised to treat you to a meal, and it is indeed my fault. You will leave Izu at noon tomorrow, right?"

"Yes, that's the plan." Suzuki Sonoko nodded, "I have been to Izu many times, and I have seen the fireworks display. It's time to go back."

In fact, the purpose of her trip has always been to meet handsome guys. Now that she has a clue with Mikyou Masahiko, she naturally has no reason to stay here.

"Then tomorrow morning, I will still follow the original plan and take you to that luxurious restaurant for a meal?" Mikyou Masahiko showed Suzuki Sonoko his most charming smile, "Otherwise I will always feel a little guilty. Besides, restaurants that exist in urban legends can also be regarded as a kind of tourist attraction, right?"

"What, are you still going there?" Mao Lilan, who was still a little scared after just looking at the photos, shuddered.

Although what Sonoko and the others said was logical, going there to take pictures...

Maybe the truth has nothing to do with the camera. Maybe Tang Ze is the kind of person who can see ghosts with high inspiration. What if he picks up the camera...

"Okay, this plan is good." Seeing Mikyou Masahiko's smile, Suzuki Sonoko nodded vigorously, "It's daytime anyway, what are you afraid of."

Well, she actually has no interest in luxury restaurants. She just wants to eat luxury food, why did she come here?

It's mainly because of Mikyou Masahiko's affectionate and pleading eyes, which made her feel needed and praised by the handsome guy, so she agreed without thinking.

And in this way, Mikyou Masahiko also said that he currently lives in Tokyo, so he can take the luggage with him and use the excuse of hitching a ride back to Tokyo to have more contact and cultivate feelings on the road...

The more cost-effective she felt, the better it was. She smiled and shook her best friend's arm.

"Go ahead. If you're still worried, I won't bring my camera."

"Actually, even if I don't have a camera, after hearing rumors like that, I still..."

"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid. I'm here, Xiaolan!"

No, I think you're obsessed with love...

Conan, who was always wary of Mikyou Masahiko, twitched his lips, but seeing that everyone agreed with this itinerary, he didn't say anything.

Anyway, their group must be larger than Mikyou Masahiko alone, and if a confrontation really happened, they would have a natural advantage, not to mention that Mikyou Masahiko still didn't know the real strength of Karasawa and Mao Lilan.

If he really dared to show any malice to Sonoko...

Thinking of the scene where Karasawa kicked the security door and Mao Lilan bent the electric pole with a punch, Conan's face was strange, and he even looked at Mikyou Masahiko with a little sympathy.

I hope you don't have bad intentions and really set your sights on Sonoko, otherwise I'm afraid that once they make a move, I'll have to kneel on the ground and beg you not to die...

While they were silently observing, a figure crossed the aisle between them and the table behind them and walked towards the door leading to the hotel side. It seemed that he had finished his meal and was about to return to his room.

Conan glanced at that side casually with the corner of his eye, was stunned, and his attention was refocused.

Adachi Toru? Why is he here? Does he live here too?

Conan clearly remembers that this guy left after sending them back to the hotel last night. He doesn't look like he lives here at all.

Or is his action last night just to find out their specific address?

Or is it related to the so-called case he is investigating?

Thinking of the fact that Hattori Heiji mentioned to him that Adachi Toru might be involved in the serial murder case, Conan's expression darkened.

If Adachi Toru really targeted them, then his only target could be Karasawa.

Conan, who lived in the same room with Karasawa, clenched his fists and prepared to observe the situation carefully.

So when dinner was over, Dokyo Masahiko left, and everyone went back to their rooms to wash up, Karasawa walked down the stairs and walked towards the tea room on the first floor. He was immediately followed by a little tail.

The detective, who didn't have strong concealment skills but could always track successfully, followed Tang Ze's route on tiptoe, and after confirming that Tang Ze had entered the tea room and there was no one else in the corridor, he quietly approached the door and listened carefully.

After all, he was a policeman who had been unfavorable to Tang Ze. Even if he had nothing to do with the organization, he was a scum who needed to be eliminated among the police, so it was reasonable to pay more attention to him.

Tang Ze, who had originally come to communicate with his teammates about tomorrow's action plan, was stunned, frowned, opened his third eye and glanced, and was immediately speechless.

You kid, you didn't sleep at night and came to squat on me. You really don't grow up like this, I tell you...

Before Matsuda Jinpei opened his mouth, Tang Ze raised his palm and threw out the name that made Matsuda Jinpei's heart break.

"Mr. Toru, is there anything you want to ask me to do?"

Matsuda Jinpei didn't care about maintaining Adachi Toru's lazy state, and looked at Tang Ze sitting across the table, and couldn't help but widen his eyes.

Hey, you asked me to come here. You asked me what I want to do. Who should I ask?

However, he had already understood the situation from the previous address, so he couldn't say his inner complaints. He looked at Tang Ze's expression and had to follow his words.

"I learned a little about your life after going to Tokyo. It's unexpectedly going pretty well..."

————

After stacking the tableware, Kyogoku wiped his sweaty forehead and stood in the empty restaurant in a daze.

In order to attack Suzuki Sonoko, the criminal has gone all out and directly invaded his hotel. Will there be other dangers in tomorrow's restaurant trip?

Unlike his seafood restaurant on the beach, the restaurant they are going to tomorrow is on the top of the mountain. It is not easy to go there on foot without a car, but it would be too blatant to drive behind.

He just wants to protect the safety of the girl he likes, not to be a perverted stalker.

What reason should I use to follow him...

He walked out of the restaurant slowly in a daze, passed through the back kitchen and entered the corridor of the inner courtyard. When he was about to cross the courtyard to return to his room, a faint voice of "Suzuki Sonoko" immediately drew his attention back.

Kyogoku Makoto looked around and soon caught sight of the teahouse that was still abruptly lit at night. He frowned and slowly approached its window.

"...The daughter of a chaebol, and her sister has married and changed her surname, giving up the inheritance of the family business. You have found a good way out, so even if you are still a juvenile delinquent, you can have a good way out in the future, right?"

This is the voice of an adult, perhaps it is the coolness of the late night, or perhaps it is the tone of the other party's speech, a slightly playful and teasing tone, which was said by him with a cold malice, as if a snake was spitting out its tongue.

Kyogoku Makoto had heard this voice yesterday.

It was the man named Adachi Toru who was holding Tang Ze hostage and seemed to be trying to grab something from him.

Realizing this, Kyogoku Makoto immediately adjusted his breathing and lowered his presence so that the two figures sitting opposite each other behind the window, reflected on the window, would not notice his presence.

As he expected, soon, Tang Ze's voice rang out.

"...Are you jealous, Mr. Toru?"

As soon as these words came out, all the movements in the room stopped immediately, and the room fell into a stalemate silence for more than ten seconds.

"Jealous? What are you jealous of?" Adachi Toru's voice sounded again, but it lacked the carefree and casual tone. "Are you jealous that your parents are dead and you live alone in chains, or are you jealous that you committed a serious crime and your future life is destined to be full of ups and downs?"

After saying this, Adachi Toru laughed a few times, and his voice quickly returned to its previous state.

"I am indeed a small policeman with little influence, but Mr. Tang Ze, you don't think that knowing a few powerful guys in Tokyo can save you from the water and fire? Don't be funny, it would be great if the world was that simple."

Kyogoku Zhen's fist at his side had been slowly clenched in the harsh and sarcastic tone of Adachi Toru since he heard him speak. Hearing this, he slowly moved a few fingers.

He knew that Tang Ze was right.

Adachi Toru, more or less, probably couldn't stand Tang Ze's current situation.

Although he became a juvenile delinquent, he still made friends with good families, and even had the opportunity to travel during holidays, and enjoy the happiness of ordinary students with friends. This situation aroused the other party's malice on some levels, so Adachi Toru kept using such a bad tone to sneer at Tang Ze.

"Well, maybe it's not jealousy, but I think you must be very unwilling to see that I am living a good life now." Tang Ze fought back quickly this time, "After all, you haven't suffered such a blow as mine. You just made a small mistake, but there is no one to help you."

"Well, after all, this is the true face of life. If this happened to you after you started working... Forget it, this assumption is meaningless. You can go to school and live a normal life after committing a crime, and you are already enjoying the preferential treatment of children in society."

"...Preferential treatment?"

Adachi Toru ignored his mumbling to himself, and just continued: "You may be a little luckier than me. Children of your age are still very naive. You are late I would have seen the true face of everything earlier. "

"Mr. Toru, I can understand that you are because of your life experience..."

"No, you can't understand." Adachi Toru's voice, which has always been flat and lazy, suddenly became low, "This is why I hate you, Karasawa. Put away your ridiculous empathy. Who do you think you are, a savior? As soon as I saw your expression, I really wanted to teach you a lesson again. "

"How to teach me, give me another punch? I'm afraid you can't beat me now."

"Ha, this expression again, if it weren't for your good relationship with the police in the Metropolitan Police Department now, I really want to... Who is there! "

Kyogoku Makoto, who couldn't help but listen more and more and got closer to the window, was suddenly startled, instinctively retracted his steps, and held his breath.

I tried my best to hide, is this guy's sense so sharp?

Before he found a hidden hiding place, the footsteps went in the opposite direction, stepped onto the corridor leading to the guest rooms outside, and left quickly.

Isn't it him who was found?

Kyogoku Makoto frowned, still in doubt, but saw the sliding door of the tea room facing the courtyard was opened, and a brown-haired guy ran out on tiptoe.

It was Karasawa, who seemed to be planning to sneak away while Adachi Toru was chasing the eavesdropper.

He quietly closed the door, turned around and was about to leave, and met the eyes of Kyogoku Makoto who was stiff over there.

Obviously, both sides were caught off guard.

Karasawa, who was still complaining about Conan's perseverance in eavesdropping, and felt that if he continued to make up stories, he would reveal information that he shouldn't say, was even a little relieved now.

After all, if Conan hadn't caught up with him, he would have been unaware of Kyogoku Makoto's arrival, and he would have been seen through by Kyogoku Makoto directly.

Really, it's really embarrassing that coop4 was exposed. If another person stripped his vest before coop was opened, he would have died, right?

"This way." Kyogoku Makoto saw that Tang Ze was frozen in place because of his appearance, and he looked completely frightened. He frowned, immediately grabbed Tang Ze's arm, and without saying anything, took him to the living area according to the original route.

That's where the employees live. Guests usually don't come here, and it's difficult to find the exact location.

Tang Ze, who was confused, followed him passively, crossed the courtyard, passed through the corridor, and walked to a room hidden by trees at the back of the hotel.

"This is the utility room. No one will come at this time, and he can't find you." Kyogoku Makoto took the initiative to explain to Tang Ze.

What's the matter with that person? Is he bullying you? What happened to you when you asked me to let the attacker go as much as possible on the phone? And...

Kyogoku was full of questions, but when he looked at Tangze and thought of the information that Adachi Toru mentioned just now, the first thing he said was-

"Are you okay? I saw you talking to him just now, and I felt that you were almost out of breath."

The state of suppressing everything, constantly breathing in and out, as if using all his strength to fight, made Kyogoku, who heard through the window, feel the other party's discomfort.

However, the anger, the unwillingness to bow down, and the state of trying his best to fight, made Kyogoku admire him.

Tangze's situation didn't seem to be good. He didn't refute any of those harsh descriptions and words.

But carrying these burdens, he still withstood the pressure, and smiled to Suzuki Sonoko and Mao Lilan that he was fine.

He is a person with a strong heart...

Tang Ze looked at Kyogoku Makoto with a somewhat strange look on his face, wondering what he was thinking.

His play was for Conan, mainly to facilitate targeting Ireland later. Why are you nodding along even though you half understand it?

"...I'm fine. Kyogoku-kun, what's wrong with you?"

Kyogoku Makoto looked at Tang Ze, who seemed confused and didn't understand why he suddenly helped him, and said sincerely: "That guy sounds like he really deserves a beating. Do you need help?"

Almost as soon as he finished speaking, the sound of breaking and shattering filled Tang Ze's hearing.

...I don't know if it was his illusion, but I always felt that the sound of breaking this time was a little more powerful than before.

"I am you, and you are me"

...
