The Phantom Thief of Heart! But Conan

"Well, the word 'formed' is not quite accurate. When I first started using this name for activities, I was actually the only one in this so-called group."

Ignoring Toru Amuro who was choking and coughing, Karasawa picked up the tea cup and rarely explained his thoughts.

Although there is indeed a lot of fun in using the name of the Phantom Thieves of Heart, when Maru Denjiro's case happened, he would choose to directly use the Phantom Thieves to announce the existence of the Phantom Thieves. There are certain considerations, and there are also many Tangze's own plans.

And this part, he never explained to others.

"Part of this is a cognitive need. I think you have guessed it. The more people recognize and know about the Phantom Thieves of the Heart, the greater the role we can play, declaring that the existence of the Phantom Thieves is destined. However, because the only information I knew at the time was that the case I was involved in was related to the organization, my identity was very dangerous and I could face being pursued and intercepted by the organization at any time. In order to avoid this passive possibility, I was prepared to abandon my identity. "Prepared."

This fluttering sentence of "abandoning identity" made Toru Amuro's eyebrows jump.

The first thing he thought of was the gang that Tang Ze could basically verify, oh no, the team members.

Almost all of them, including Hoshikawa Teru and Miyano Akemi, and of course his police academy classmates, are dead people who no longer exist in this society.

"Abandon your identity, for example, accept the FBI's witness protection program, or accept our help at the time and fake your own death to escape?" Amuro asked tentatively, transparently and knowingly.

Tangze shook his head as he expected: "How is it possible? I know you don't have any ill intentions, but I know better what my parents' research means. It is impossible for me to let this kind of power fall into the hands of the organization. How can I accept this? This power falls into the hands of other institutions? I am not that naive."

The power of scientific research represents the progress of mankind. Supporting scientific research is supporting the development of mankind. This sentence is generally correct, but at a practical level, human beings are also different from each other. They have different countries, origins, and characteristics. Complex ingredients and desires.

This cannot be blamed on Karasawa being too much of a conspiracy theorist. As an undercover policeman, doubting the whole world is the normal state of his work.

"I plan to 'die' completely and exist in the dark side of the world as a joker. The ideal situation is the enemy's openness and our own darkness."

The premonition came true, but Toru Amuro didn't feel relaxed. He only felt that he had knitted his eyebrows for too long today, and his forehead hurt from the wrinkles.

There was no big difference from his guess. Tangze's weird mental state did not show up when he usually interacted with others because he was exerting his strength on the parts that others could not see.

Let him think about when the Phantom Thief of Hearts started to act... At that time, Karasawa had been in Tokyo for a week...

As early as that time, Tang Ze had already made plans to give up everything currently and completely hide in the darkness?

"There are many shortcomings in doing this, but I thought at the time that it was the best approach. You can directly get rid of the entanglement of the organization and consider the past from a completely independent perspective." Looking back on the state of alienation from the world at that time. , Tangze shook his head, "But after I discovered some truths later, I realized that my consideration was still too naive. Coupled with some other influences, I gave up this plan."

What he told was the truth. The reason why he didn't talk about it to others was mainly because, except for Toru Amuro, who had been in contact with him since he came to Tokyo, it was difficult for others to understand the process of his psychological changes. .

The setting of the Phantom Thieves of the Heart is not only based on Karasawa's understanding of the cognitive world, but also to test the organization's reaction and confirm how far they have understood the so-called cognitive science. Will it be affected by his tyranny? Empty and alert.

He didn't plan to find any teammates or have any friends. He contacted everyone, including Conan and other friends who are now very close, with a utilitarian mentality. After all, getting close to the main characters is to understand the main plot. and the most convenient way to the truth.

What brought everything to this day was the accidents that came from these helpers.

"The existence of Xingchuan is an accident."

Because he was aware of this identity and found an opportunity to break into the organization, Tangze changed his path and contacted Kidd, trying to become an undercover agent again through disguise.

"Shirley, Akai Shuichi, and Akemi-sister, it was also an accident."

Suddenly learning that he still has blood relatives alive, and that his life is not long, and is in danger, Akai Shuichi has reached the limit, and the arrow is on the string and has to be fired, which forces Karasawa to change his action plan again and again.

"And Mr. Amuro, you were also an accident."

From Toru Amuro, he felt the power of humanity and the similarity that seemed to be dictated by fate, which ultimately led Karasawa to take a path that he would never have chosen in the past.

"Perhaps this is the true meaning of 'destiny shift'."

Karasawa raised his head and looked into Toru Amuro's eyes, but Toru Amuro, who was looking at him, had the feeling that he was not looking at him.

Tangze seemed to be trying to see through his eyes to see something deeper and more distant.

"It's not your destiny that's been deflected, but mine." Karasawa said in a low voice, but very firmly, "You want me to choose the present and the future, Mr. Amuro. In fact, I don't need to choose. You The appearance of "has already represented the future. It's probably me who should say thank you."

Are these effects good or bad? Karasawa couldn't claim something that didn't happen.

But he knew that if this was not the case, he might not save Miyano Akemi. She would really pass away in the moonlight, let alone save and accept Hoshikawa Teru. There is a high probability that he would die along with Shigehiko Tonkou. Become a silent ghost of injustice. The subsequent members were even more so.

If he had not been thrown into this passive environment at the beginning and had not been involved in such a troublesome matter, according to Tang Ze's consistent character, he would not have been able to let down his guard easily and pin the success of his plan on others.

So this is the so-called "destiny shift". What is really deviating from the trajectory is not the future that has not yet happened to others, but Karasawa himself.

It was always Tang Ze himself who was changed, and it was always Tang Ze himself who was affected. What he gave back to the world was just the power that the world exerted on him.

Right, Leon?

"Well, some misunderstandings have been cleared up." After recovering his thoughts, Tang Ze picked up a photo, recognized it for a while, then wrote a name underneath, and handed it to Zhu Fu Jingguang, who was busy sorting out the paperwork, "I I explained a little bit about my approach to him to avoid more misunderstandings. I feel that Mr. Amuro is still too worried. "

Hagihara Kenji couldn't hold it back, coughed twice, and looked at each other with his two other friends.

Is it true, is he describing the Feng Gu Ling they know?

Although Rei Fukutani is indeed very caring about his friends and is very good at reading the atmosphere, the things that he usually "worries about" are not a good thing...

"I think it's not that he likes to worry, but that for some reason, the undercover gentleman saw Tang Ze's true thoughts that he didn't want to speak out."

So, when Karasawa accompanied them to finish sorting out the personnel list and stood up to go to the kitchen to find food, Miyano Akemi, who had been immersed in the work for a long time, said something unexpectedly.

"I think so." Matsuda Jinpei rolled his eyelids, "I asked why Zero suddenly sent an email, asking about Karasawa's recent status, and how long it has been since he saw a psychiatrist..."

Don't forget that Karasawa said something outrageous, which probably shocked Rei Fangtani.

"Did you receive it too?" Zhu Fu Jingguang raised his eyebrows in surprise, "It seems that Zero was quite frightened."

Because the identities of the three of them are so special, not only does the organization have to do a good job of keeping it confidential, but even the public security side of the three of them have a cooperative relationship with the organization through the work of the organization. The informant, unless necessary, would not discuss such a personal issue in a communication method that leaves traces easily, such as email.

"It's possible that Rei is aware of Karasawa's special attitude towards drug dealers. I think Karasawa's state is quite wrong today." Matsuda Jinpei tilted his head, thinking about it, and nodded slowly, confirming his point of view. "It doesn't look like there's much difference, but the quietness is a bit too much."

"He has been playing with the butterfly knife." Zhufu Jingguang agreed, "He usually takes this action as a habitual move to strengthen Kumail's identity. But today he was still swinging the knife while sitting in the car."

"I didn't try to contact the little detective at all." Miyano Akemi added, "Recently, Karasawa likes to constantly strengthen the hint that his identity is suspicious."

"He still looks a little tired. Well, he must be able to cope with this intensity of work."

"Anyway, something is very wrong..."

Several people murmured for a while, but when Tang Ze walked back to the war room, everyone returned to their normal appearance.

"Is this list sent directly to the people in the zero group?" Zhu Fu Jingguang gestured to the contents that had been sorted out.

"I'll post it tomorrow morning and see how efficient Ireland is." Tangze clicked on his phone casually, "There's no need to put those who can't survive tonight on the priority list."

The pace has fast forwarded to closing the net. The primary goal now is to catch as many of these people as possible before they disperse, sort out the structural relationships, and determine who is the core and top management is the next step. There is no need to waste police resources at the moment. On the dead man.

"How to solve the police investigation? Noah has already taken care of the surveillance video, but the two of us left behind false identities. Those who cannot withstand the investigation will always be exposed." Asai Narumi raised his hand.

"It doesn't matter, just let them misunderstand that you are people sent by other forces. This is the effect I want to create." Karasawa glanced at Matsuda Jinpei in passing, "The same goes for misunderstanding Adachi Tohru's identity."

The "criminal network" he and Toru Amuro worked hard to build. Although the facts of the crime are false, the network is real.

It is appropriate to throw away part of it as if it was shot down by the police, which is more realistic. Anyway, it is the organization that is being acted out, and Ma Zai is the one who is injured. What does he have to be afraid of?

"Um, um," Xingchuan Hui looked around and raised his hand unsurely, "I've sent a variety show invitation. How should I handle this..."

As soon as this topic with a completely different painting style was brought up, everyone's eyes were focused on Xingchuan Hui.

"Variety show invitation? What variety show?" Tang Ze found it quite interesting. "Invite Goro Akechi? Didn't I say that this part is completely up to you? If you want to go, go. If you don't want to go, forget it."

Hoshikawa Teru looked back with a faint death look.

Really? But he obviously didn't want to go to either of them...

"It is to invite Goro Akechi, but the situation is different. It was mentioned last time in that villa. Someone wanted to invite Hakuba Tan and Goro Akechi at the same time, to have a detective duel or something..."

"It sounds like something that Nichimi TV would do." Tang Ze said pertinently, "Only invited Goro Akechi and Hakuba Tan? So targeted? Then they are very brave."

Due to Tang Ze's diligent idol business results, the cooperation with the public security department and Rum's unremitting performance results, Goro Akechi's current reputation on the Internet cannot be underestimated.

Tang Ze can't say whether this kind of gimmick full of drag and drop will have good ratings. The TV station will really be severely inflamed by Goro Akechi's fans.

"They are probably worried about this, so they organized a, uh, larger detective duel." Hoshikawa Teru scratched his head, taking out his phone to reconfirm the invitation he received. "In addition to Goro Akechi and Hakuba, it seems that several other high school detectives will be invited, such as Hattori Heiji and Kudo Shinichi..."

"Then they are really brave." Tang Ze repeated it, but this time the starting point is different.

Inviting Hattori Heiji is easy to say. Although Hattori will be persuaded by Kudo Shinichi with reasoning that there is no winner, he is indeed a competitive guy in nature. After all, he participates in competitive sports, and he will bite the bait immediately if you use a little provocation.

But inviting Kudo Shinichi...

If this really happens, someone will be in trouble. Although Gin is a formatted bionic man, other people in the organization are not.

After thinking about the lineup, Tang Ze touched his chin and asked thoughtfully: "Wait a minute, the name of this program is not called, 'Detective Koshien' or something?"

"Indeed. Have you seen the message?" Hoshikawa Teru nodded after flipping through the invitation email.

"Aha, then they are really brave..." Tang Ze raised his eyebrows and said meaningfully, "Okay, reply and accept the invitation. You don't have to come this time, I'll go."
