Ke Xue: My standards for dating are not problematic!

Chapter 331 Phantom Thief Kid: Conan, my foolish little brother!

"Ugh"

Upon hearing this, Kuroba Chikage couldn't help but sigh.

Although Kaito Kuroba and Aoko Nakamori are childhood friends, after doing something like this, even childhood friends can't undo the damage, and it might even lead to a complete break.

After all, her deceased husband had manipulated Aoko's father, and her son was doing the same thing, continuing to manipulate Nakamori Ginzo.

The father and son are alike; they'll fleece anyone they can find.

The fact that Nakamori Ginzo didn't break down shows his strong mental fortitude; one could even say he's carefree.

After all, a normal person would probably have given up playing long ago after such a blow.

But it seems that Nakamori Ginzo is already enjoying it.

Are you a masochist?
If the Nakamori family finds out about this, their years-long friendship will be over.

Aoko Nakamori and Kaito Kuroba's childhood friendship is definitely not going to work out, and Kaito will have to pay the price for his actions; he'll definitely be dead by then.

Right now, Kuroba Chikage is worried about this matter, but she doesn't have any good solutions.

After all, a son is beyond his mother's control once he grows up. She simply couldn't control Kaito Kuroba. She couldn't very well break Kaito Kuroba's legs and prevent him from flying, could she?

Although the method seems similar, Kuroba Kaito is, after all, a piece of Kuroba Chikage's flesh and blood, and she simply can't bring herself to do it.

However, she could ask Kitahara Natsuhiro to do it for her, but she couldn't bring herself to say it.

This is incredibly cruel to a child.

Of course, if this were someone else's business, then Kuroba Chikage could make the right judgment, but this was her own family matter, and she had no way to deal with it.

This is why even an upright official finds it difficult to settle family disputes, and the same applies to Kuroba Chikage.

"Alright, stop sighing." Kitahara Natsuyu put his arm around Kuroba Chikage's shoulder and said, "We'll deal with whatever comes our way. What's done is done, and there's no use regretting it now."

"At worst, we'll expose everything about this organization and fight to the death."

Although he said that, he would take action if anything really went wrong.

After all, Chikage Kuroba is already his wife, and Kaito Kuroba is practically his son.

Even though it's only half, let's protect it a little bit if we can.

Of course, if something really happens, he will definitely not act immediately. Instead, he will watch Kuroba Kaito suffer a great loss before taking action, so that the guy will learn his lesson.

Conan Edogawa should be like that too.

Fortunately, Conan has absolutely no access to information about the Black Organization, which means he knows nothing about them and is not in great danger.

On the contrary, it's Kaito Kuroba who keeps courting death.

"The fish might die and the net might break?" Kuroba Chikage shook his head: "The fish might really die, but the net won't break."

She knew very little about this mysterious organization, but the fact that they could assassinate her husband silently without anyone noticing meant they were no ordinary people.

And the fact that they haven't been able to uncover any intelligence about this organization after so many years in the United States shows how terrifying it is.

"Alright, stop being so pessimistic." Kitahara Natsumi kissed Kuroba Chikage on the cheek. "If all else fails, you still have me."

"I'll take care of all the troubles then, so you don't need to worry about it."

"And if you worry too much, you'll get wrinkles, and wrinkles don't look good."

"Okay, whatever you say!" Kuroba Chikage leaned against Kitahara Natsuyu's chest, a smile on her face.

Having a reliable man by my side feels so good, it makes me feel so safe.

Kuroba Chikage, who is currently deeply in love, has lost a lot of her intelligence and has not thought of some details at all.

There was nothing she could do; Kitahara Natsuyu had already lowered her intelligence, so it was normal that she couldn't think of anything.

After all, Kuroba Chikage's current focus is on Kitahara Natsuyu, and although Kuroba Kaito is also receiving attention, it's only a small part of it.

Sure enough, the child was just an accident and didn't matter at all.

"Okay, let's leave it at that for now," Kitahara Natsuyu said. "It hasn't started yet, let's continue to observe, and then we'll go teach Kaito a lesson later."

"it is good."

Immediately, Xia Yu and Hei Yu Qianying continued their observation.

Meanwhile, Conan Edogawa had already driven his 'BMW' to the Beika Hotel.

Upon arriving in the vicinity, he immediately got out of the car, held the skateboard in his arms, and surveyed his surroundings.

"Wow, so many police officers."

Conan looked around and noticed a number of police officers.

Although these police officers were all in plainclothes, who was he? He was Shinichi Kudo, the high school detective.

Even though these police officers were dressed in lunchboxes, they couldn't hide his eyes. Coupled with their demeanor, they were easily spotted.

Therefore, Conan saw through their disguise at a glance.

Fortunately, it was already past midnight, 11 p.m., and there weren't many people around, so there was no disturbance.

After all, nights were not safe in this era, and ordinary people didn't go out much at night. In addition, this wasn't Kabukicho, so there weren't many people here.

Furthermore, they had previously notified the Beika Hotel that an area in this region had been sealed off, so there was no one there at all.

As for Conan?

A small child is completely insignificant.

The police here saw Conan, but didn't say anything.

After all, he's just a kid. Why make such a fuss? Besides, Kaito Kid can't disguise himself as a child.

As for Kaito Kid's disguise skills, the police officers who frequently pursue him are already very familiar with them.

But while they understand it, they don't have the means to crack it.

Disguise is such a shameless trick.

However, the Metropolitan Police Department clearly knew that Phantom Thief Kid's disguise skills were superb, yet they still brought so many police officers. They really haven't learned their lesson.

No wonder Tokyo residents call the Metropolitan Police Department the tax thieves.

They're really taking the money but not doing their jobs properly, recklessly wasting the Metropolitan Police Department's resources and their taxes.

You guys are really damned!
"These police officers are actually ignoring me?" Conan paused, then chuckled, "It's quite normal that they're ignoring me."

"Although Kaito Kid can disguise himself, he can't turn into a child; the size difference is too great."

"I never imagined that shrinking would actually give me an advantage in this kind of thing. It's really laughable." Conan shook his head and sighed.

He immediately cheered up and took a deep breath.

"Kaito Kid, here I come!"

Then, Conan grabbed his skateboard and ran towards Beika Restaurant.

However, at this time, the area around Beika Hotel was full of police officers, but these police officers just stood by and watched, and did not stop Conan from going in.

If they openly prevented guests from entering and leaving, wouldn't that give Kaito Kid a clue?

So they had no choice but to let Conan in. "Inspector Nakamori, a little boy has run into the Beika Hotel, what do we do now?"

Although the police officers in the vicinity could not stop Conan from running in, they could inform Inspector Nakamori about what was happening.

Moreover, they are here to monitor the situation in real time so they can report back.

"Hmm?" At this moment, Officer Nakamori was sitting in the police car, holding a pipe, looking quite confident and composed.

As for the target, it was the Beika Hotel.

It was getting late, so Officer Nakamori naturally had to set off.

“A little boy?” Nakamori Ginzo smiled confidently: “It’s alright, Kaito Kid can’t possibly disguise himself as a child, don’t panic.”

“This time I have laid a tight net, he can’t escape. Keep monitoring him, I’ll be there soon.”

Upon hearing this, the police officer at the Beika Hotel nodded: "Yes, Officer Nakamori, we will continue to monitor the situation."

"very good."

Nakamori Ginzo nodded, put down the walkie-talkie, took a puff of his pipe, and said softly, "Kaito Kid, you can't escape this time!"

"Ha ha ha ha."

The police officer driving the car looked at his superior's smile and couldn't help but mutter to himself, "Officer Nakamori, even opening champagne at halftime is no good. Besides, we've never won against that Phantom Thief Kid."

Being too confident is not a good thing.

He wasn't very confident about capturing Kaito Kid.

After all, Phantom Thief Kid is elusive and really hard to catch.

Besides, they were all defeated by Phantom Thief Kid, so how could they possibly catch him?

Therefore, he remained pessimistic.

But these are things that can only be said in one's heart; they cannot be said out loud.

If he were to say it out loud, Inspector Nakamori would skin him alive.

After all, how could a police officer from the Metropolitan Police Department say such discouraging things!

Absolutely not!
While Conan was heading to the Beika Hotel, Kaito Kuroba, who was hiding somewhere, witnessed this scene and a smile appeared on his lips.

"Shinichi Kudo, you've finally arrived."

"I just don't know if you've figured out the real content of my pre-announcement letter. I hope you can't decipher it."

"I will be very disappointed if you cannot decipher it."

"My silly little brother, don't let your big brother down!"

Kaito Kuroba laughed, then disappeared back into the darkness.

After Shinichi Kudo disappeared and became Conan Edogawa, Kaito Kuroba investigated some information, so he knew long ago that Shinichi Kudo was Conan Edogawa.

Furthermore, there were some things he knew when he was a child, because his father, Kuroba Toichi, had told him something.

That's what made him pay attention to Shinichi Kudo.

However, Kaito Kuroba doesn't interfere too much in Conan's affairs.

After all, he has a lot of things to do himself, so he doesn't have time to worry about Conan.

Furthermore, based on his previous investigation, the organization that turned Shinichi Kudo back into a child is quite terrifying.

He's already provoked one terrifying organization, and he doesn't want to provoke a second one.

Therefore, he will help Conan at the appropriate time, but he will never go too deep, because if he goes too deep, he will get involved in the trouble between Shinichi Kudo and the Black Organization.

He might not be able to withstand the combined might of two terrifying organizations.

Moreover, he has family and friends around him, so he should be careful.

After all, you only have one life, and you can't just waste it like that.

Kuroba Chikage: Fine, fine, you're making a lot of sense here, but you just won't listen to your mother. Kaito, you really need to be taught a lesson!

Closer to home.

At this moment, Conan had already climbed up the stairs of the Beika Hotel and arrived at the top floor of the Beika Hotel.

After reaching the top floor, Conan was a little out of breath and looked at his watch.

"It's 11:45. Phantom Thief Kid will be here in 15 minutes. Then I can meet him and catch him!"

"I've prepared very thoroughly this time!" Conan said with a confident smile.

Last time, he fought with Phantom Thief Kid near a clock tower. Although he had the upper hand, Phantom Thief Kid still managed to escape in the end.

But this time, he would never let Kaito Kid slip away from him again.

If he runs away this time, where will he put his reputation as the high school detective, Shinichi Kudo?

However, he is now Conan Edogawa, not Shinichi Kudo, so even if he fails, it's not a big deal.

But Conan cannot allow himself to fail.

"Butterfly-shaped voice changer, wristwatch-shaped tranquilizer gun, soccer belt, and leg-enhancing shoes!" Conan checked his equipment.
There were no problems with the equipment, so he found a place to sit down and waited patiently.

While Conan was waiting, Nakamori Ginzo arrived, accompanied by his superior, Chaki Shintaro.

"Nakamori, the time should be almost up!" Chaki Shintaro said.

Upon hearing this, Nakamori Ginzo glanced at his watch and nodded, saying, "Five more minutes. Then we can catch Phantom Thief Kid and give the citizens of Tokyo and the world an explanation."

"Don't be so sure of yourself, let's go up!" Chaki Shintaro wasn't as confident as Nakamori Ginzo; he had a feeling that this operation wouldn't go so smoothly.

After all, we assumed that's how it always is.

He opened champagne at halftime, only to be slapped in the face by Phantom Thief Kid at the end

They've experienced this many times before.

"it is good!"

Nakamori Ginzo took a deep breath and then followed Chaki Shintaro and some of the police officers upstairs.

Their destination was also the top floor.

"Yay!" Kaito Kuroba stood on a high point, ready to continue, with a faint smile on his face: "These guys have all made their appearances, so now it's my turn to be the protagonist."

"I am coming!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Kaito Kuroba leaped down from the high point.

As he plummeted, his glider unfurled, and he piloted it toward the Beika Hotel.

At this moment, Conan stood on the rooftop and began to count down.

3!

2!

1!
