Conan: Above all force, there is truth!

By the time he arrived there on his skateboard, Kaito Kid had already run far away.

Thinking of this, Conan pondered for a moment and immediately shouted, "Hattori! Let's ambush him here!"

After saying that, Conan ran towards the entrance of the art museum.

At that moment, Naoto Nishino was standing at the door talking to a woman he didn't know.

"Mr. Nishino! Where is that egg?"

Seeing Conan rushing over, Naoto Nishino didn't hesitate at all and said directly, "That egg? Inspector Nakamori has already taken it to another place. He said it would be safer that way."

Upon hearing this, Conan and Heiji Hattori's already anxious expressions became even more ferocious.

What?! That idiot police officer!

Could it be that... Phantom Thief Kid has already taken this into account?!

They had no idea where Inspector Nakamori would take the egg.

Therefore, there's nothing they can do...

But how could Phantom Thief Kid know where Inspector Nakamori would take the egg?

Conan and Heiji Hattori couldn't help but lower their heads and start thinking.

……

same moment

Tongtiange Top

Dressed in white, Phantom Thief Kid looked at the brightly lit city at night and revealed a meaningful smile.

"Next, I'm going to show you this~"

After speaking, he pressed a button on the unidentified remote control in his hand.

After the button was pressed, the Osaka substation was engulfed in flames amidst a violent explosion.

The next second, the entire city was plunged into darkness.

Seeing this, Kidd chuckled and picked up the binoculars in his hand.

……

Art Museum Entrance

Conan and his friends were startled to find that all the lights in the art museum and the surrounding area were off.

"The power's out!?"

"No, that's not right!"

As if he had thought of something, Conan stood on the skateboard again and stepped on the button on the skateboard.

"Pfft... Whoosh!"

The next moment, Conan dashed out.

Seeing Conan disappear on that strange skateboard, Hattori Heiji gritted his teeth and ran towards his motorcycle.

……

Cooking Pavilion - "Jian"

Kogoro Mouri and Shiro Suzuki paid no attention to the darkening surroundings.

Looking at the full moon outside the window, Shiro Suzuki exclaimed, "Oh~ I never thought I could actually have a drink by the moonlight~"

"Yes! This scene is truly elegant~" Uncle Mori also looked up at the moon outside the window and chuckled.

Next door room

Looking at the group of people slumped over in front of him, Longye twitched his lips.

He originally thought Sonoko's suggestion to have a drink was just a joke, but he didn't expect this woman to actually do it.

The restaurant should have refused, but Sonoko seemed to have used some tricks and actually ordered sake.

At first, Ran and Kazuha only took a few bites as a symbolic gesture.

But those few words completely opened up the conversation among the group of people in the garden.

Longye witnessed them chatting about everything from food to life, and then from life to love and gossip.

The topic could have ended there.

But for some reason, after the topic of romance came up, Toyama Kazuha raised the wine dish in her hand again.

Her eyes held a mixture of dejection and anger.

Seeing this, Xiaolan and Yuanzi couldn't help but join her in drinking.

Seeing Sonoko and Kazuha with their arms around each other, if Ryūno didn't know that this was the first time the two had met, he would have thought they were old drinking buddies who had known each other for many years.

Just then, the indoor lights suddenly went out, and Xiao Lan and the others, who were already slightly drunk, were stunned.

The next second, everyone looked out the window at the same time.

With all the city lights turned off, the moon appeared even brighter.

Seeing this, Xiaolan silently rested her head on Longye's shoulder.

Seeing Ryūno and the other woman leaning on each other, a hint of melancholy flashed in Sonoko's eyes, but it was quickly replaced by a smile.

Kazuha, standing to the side, wore a disappointed smile as Hattori Heiji's face appeared in her mind.

The tranquility lasted for a while.

Upon seeing the lights come on in a hospital building outside, Ryūno glanced at Ran and the others, chuckling, "Looks like Phantom Thief Kid will be here soon~"

The group, still enjoying their drinks, reacted noticeably a beat slower.

A few seconds after Ryuno finished speaking, Ran and the others reacted and exclaimed in surprise, "What? Could this power outage be related to Phantom Thief Kid!?"

"Hmm. I just don't know if that guy will actually be able to get to us."

……

on the street

Conan swiftly weaves through the cars that are stopped in place due to a power outage at the traffic lights.

After seeing the lights come on in several hospitals in the distance, Conan seemed to have grasped something.

The reason why hospitals and similar places turn on their lights first is because these important places have emergency backup power supplies...

And that guy is currently standing in the Tower of Heaven, overlooking the entire city. Could it be...?

Thinking about this, Conan finally understood Kaito Kid's purpose.

He already knew that the "egg" would be moved to another location by Inspector Nakamori.

This power outage was to locate the "egg" at its current position.

Judging from the police's usual practices, no matter where they hide the eggs, they will definitely make all sorts of preparations.

For example—prepare emergency power supplies in advance!

Chapter 117 Kidd's search for the egg was cut short when he died.

If he's not mistaken, Kaito Kid's real purpose is to find out—

During a power outage, the first suspicious place to turn on its lights, besides important buildings such as "hospitals"!

Thinking of this, Conan immediately turned around and rushed into a small alley.

I'm going to take a shortcut to a relatively open street where I can see the lights of the buildings clearly.

But soon after turning into the alley, Conan discovered that the road ahead was blocked by a guardrail, a dead end.

Just as Conan was at his wit's end, a familiar shout came from behind him.

"Kudo! Stop standing there, get in the car!"

He looked back and saw Hattori Heiji riding a motorcycle in front of him.

……

"I see. The Tongtian Pavilion is indeed the best location to see the glowing spot clearly!"

"That guy actually knew this would happen before he even sent out the notice."

"That's right, Hattori. That guy seems to know the police very well... no, he seems to know Inspector Nakamori's methods very well... Look at the sky!"

Before he could finish speaking, Conan suddenly noticed a white shadow soaring in the sky.

Hearing Conan's exclamation, Hattori Heiji also looked up at the sky and saw the white figure in the sky.

"Kudo, hold on tight!"

The next moment, Hattori Heiji immediately rushed in the direction that Phantom Thief Kid had flown.

Before long, the two arrived at their destination.

After Conan tossed the helmet to Heiji Hattori, he immediately ran into the building.

As soon as Conan entered the house, he found Inspector Nakamori and the others lying unconscious on the floor.

After shooting a smoke card at Conan's feet, Kaito Kid turned and jumped out of the window.

Then he unfolded his paraglider and flew into the distance.

Seeing that Kaito Kid had already flown far away, Conan grabbed the rope next to him in a moment of panic.

After securing it to the pipe, he ran directly to the window and rappelled downstairs.

Urged on by Heiji Hattori, Conan jumped onto the motorcycle.

The two flew off again in the direction where Phantom Thief Kid had fled.

The two watched Kaito Kid in the sky while judging the wind direction.

Just then, a truck suddenly appeared to their right.

Because Heiji Hattori was looking at the sky while riding his bicycle, he didn't notice the truck.

The next moment, with the screeching sound of the truck braking suddenly, Heiji Hattori and Conan were thrown off the motorcycle.
