Conan: I've been linked to the tech tree system.

Well, it's an honor for them to work for him, and if we're really talking about it, he considers himself much better than Pisco.

In this way, all the prerequisites for starting a company have been perfectly resolved...

Is it time to set sail?

Toru Tono was eager to try.

-----------------

Over the next few days, Toru Tono prepared for the new company.

When he went to find Misaki Ichijo wearing the mask, he clearly remembered that her face was green.

Tohno felt embarrassed for her when the person she had offended suddenly became her boss.

However, Toru Tono considers himself a person who recommends the virtuous rather than his relatives, and he still respects a talent who can run such a large company so well.

—Actually, it's because he only has Misaki Ichijo, who has experience in running a company, as an employee.

So he stayed with Misaki Ichijo for a long time, coercing and enticing her to resign from her position as president and switch jobs to his company.

Of course, he actually owns shares in both sides, so the difference isn't that significant.

It was a hardship for Ichijo Ken, who had just become chairman and had a lot of free time, as he had to start running the company himself again.

......

"...Moses Moses."

Early morning—as Tohru thought, Tohru answered the phone.

He yawned, drew back the curtains, and realized that the sun was already almost overhead.

I've been busy with preparations at the company these past few days, so my perception of time has been a little off.

As a result, my sleep schedule almost completely collapsed.

"I said, do you remember what I asked you to help me with?"

The voice on the other end of the phone was that of Kaito Kuroba, a spirited high school boy.

"Hai hai~" Tohru Tono replied perfunctorily, and went downstairs to the bar to pour himself a cup of coffee.

"Eh? You're up early today." Tachibana Maya was making lunch downstairs when she saw him come down and smiled.

“I used to get up in the afternoon every day.”

Tohru Tohru felt that she was being sarcastic, so she decided to ignore her.

"So what exactly is it?" He added a sugar cube to his coffee to moisten his throat before slowly speaking.

"Hmm... I can't explain it to you over the phone. Come to the pool hall and meet me there."

......

The billiard hall that Kaito Kuroba mentioned was of course the one owned by Kijiro Terai. Just like Professor Agasa's house was to Shinichi Kudo, Kaito Kuroba also used that place as his secret base.

When Tono arrived, he found only Kaito Kuroba waiting for him in casual clothes; Terai was nowhere to be seen.

"Hi."

Kaito Kuroba greeted him as he approached.

"Now you can tell me, right?" Tohru Tono sat down next to him.

"That's how it is." Kaito Kuroba quickly got into the narrative mode.

......

"So it's because the Nakamori father and daughter suspected you that you wanted to appear at the same time as Kaito Kid to dispel their suspicions?" Toru Tono gave him a strange look.

This plot seems familiar. Didn't you do this for Conan before? Turns out you need it yourself.

"Yes, that should clear me of suspicion, right?"

Kaito Kuroba was full of confidence.

"Inspector Nakamori saw your face under the mask when you were stealing the jewels and immediately assumed you were Kaito Kuroba?"

"Of course... what else?"

Kaito Kuroba fainted.

"Doesn't he know you have a half-brother who looks just like you?"

"what?"

Putting aside the question of what constitutes a half-brother, it's impossible for him to look exactly like someone else, right?

Although I really wanted to say that, unfortunately, Kaito Kuroba actually knew who Tohru Tono was talking about.

"You mean that great detective Shinichi Kudo? He's been missing for so long, and the probability of a famous detective being Kaito Kid is even lower than mine, right?"

"I can't say."

"Just tell me if you'll help me or not!" Kaito Kuroba gradually grew impatient.

It's just a simple sentence, but you've been arguing about it for so long!

"...Sure, I don't have anything else to do anyway." Tohru Tohru didn't care. It was the weekend, and everyone was resting except for the hardworking Gin. He had plenty of time.

"By the way, do you want me to steal jewels?"

Tohru Tono asked this question.

"What are you thinking? You're not a phantom thief, why would I entrust you with something so difficult?"

Kaito Kuroba gave him a strange look. "Don't worry, I think your acting is pretty good, so I'm giving you a relatively easy task."

"..."

Toru Tono was silent for a moment: "Are you going to the tropical amusement park with Aoko Nakamori?"

“Of course, this mission is safe and risk-free.” Kaito Kuroba flashed his healthy, white teeth. “I’m not like you; I wouldn’t put my helpers in danger!”

"..." Tohno Toru didn't dwell on the sarcasm in his words, and looked at him with some pity.

Let this self-proclaimed greenhorn, who may have some mental issues, say a few words; consider it a courtesy to a disabled person.

Chapter 139 There's a cow!

"I'm leaving it to you!"

At the entrance to the tropical amusement park, before leaving, Kaito Kuroba said these words.

Although he really wanted to reply, "I will take care of your wife and children," Tohno Tooru was too embarrassed to say it, seeing his straight-man attitude.

With a wave of his hand, Tohru Tono chased Kaito Kuroba away, then pinched a face to resemble Shinichi Kudo's, and messed up his hair.

Yes, that makes a complete Kaito Kuroba.

As I entered the tropical amusement park, I saw Nakamori Aoko in a pink dress, dressed up carefully. She seemed to be feeling down because she hadn't seen Kuroba Kaito.

Well, I feel really bad for this girl.

Tohru Tono walked over.

"Oh, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting."

Try your best to imitate Kaito Kuroba's clear yet foolish tone.

Nakamori Aoko turned around at the sound of her voice, a smile as beautiful as a blooming flower petal on her face: "Kaito... I knew you would come."

"Didn't we agree?"

"Mm." Nakamori Aoko smiled happily and took his hand. "Let's go!"

......

Tropical amusement park has many attractions, and there are some that Toru Tono finds very interesting.

He had a lot of fun in a "haunted house" where the ground dropped rapidly, creating a visual illusion.

However, sometimes he is too relaxed and does not show the standard "straight man" appearance of Kaito Kuroba, which arouses the suspicion of Aoko Nakamori.

"I feel like Kaito is acting a little different today."

Before lunch, Nakamori Aoko looked at Tohru Tono and said.

"Ah, he's gotten even more handsome."

Tohru Tono tried his best, but he still couldn't quite capture the boisterousness of Kaito Kuroba.

After all, their mental age is already quite advanced, and they can't always act as lively as a 17-year-old high school student.

"Your narcissism remains as strong as ever," Aoko said with a smile.

Then, a plate of fish was placed in front of Nakamori Aoko.

Tohru Tohno controlled the mask to make his face turn blue.

"No matter what, don't eat fish in front of me!!"

"So what? People like to eat it!"

Let her eat, let her eat.

I'm charmed by Aoko Nakamori's cuteness.

The afternoon passed quickly. We went go-karting for a while and visited the elephant enclosure before it got dark.

Tohru Tono seemed to be having a lot of fun; high school girls are indeed full of energy and very infectious.

No wonder everyone says that Japanese high school girls are a national treasure.

"Hey, let's go see this!"

When it was almost time for the Phantom Thief Kid trailer, Aoko took him to a 3D movie theater.

The screening I bought was a short, experiential movie. I glanced at it briefly, and it was the kind of movie with little plot, just a lot of special effects and flashy visuals. It was definitely suitable for 3D screenings.

The runtime is about 40 minutes, and watching this movie will definitely take longer than watching a Kid's crime trailer.

Nakamori Aoko probably arrived right on time, which means she does indeed suspect that Kuroba Kaito is Kaito Kid. No wonder Kuroba Kaito was in such a hurry to call her over to impersonate him.

But then again, even if Kaito Kuroba's identity as Kaito Kid is discovered by Aoko Nakamori, so what?
