The Daily Life of a Salted Fish Assassin in Anime Crossovers

At that time, he noticed that Conan was one of the kids participating in the operation.

At that time, he only thought of Conan as Jiang Hang's disciple, and Conan didn't do much during that operation, so he didn't pay much attention to the child.

Even later, when investigating Kogoro Mouri in order to better impersonate him, he didn't pay much attention to Conan, simply thinking he was a clever child.

Until last night, if he hadn't put on a camouflage around his neck, he probably would have been directly anesthetized by Conan's tranquilizer dart.

Moreover, this kid also demonstrated amazing reasoning abilities last night.

Last night, Phantom Thief Kid only found the answer to the riddle of Twilight Villa after Jiang Hang reminded him, but unexpectedly, this kid who looked only six or seven years old also solved the riddle with him at the same time.

Then Conan used the voice-changing device to imitate Kogoro Mouri's voice and made a deduction, and the deduction process was correct.

Having experienced something like this happen to him, Kaito Kid naturally realized that Kogoro Mouri, the recently famous detective, was probably just a figurehead, and that the real detective was the kid who had been hiding behind Kogoro Mouri all along.

Moreover, judging from the kid's behavior just now, it seems that he had already noticed his identity.

Such observation and reasoning abilities would be considered normal for a high school detective in his early teens, but for a first-grader, it's simply unbelievable.

He is asking Jiang Hang now because Jiang Hang is very familiar with this kid, and with Jiang Hang's abilities, he probably already knows about this kid's background.

“This guy is a ‘victim’ of a drug program at the distillery. With your abilities, I’m sure you can easily find out his background.” Jiang Hang spread his hands and explained to Phantom Thief Kid.

Jiang Hang doesn't mind selling Conan out of the way, since by the time Conan's true identity is known, the number of people who know it won't be any different than Kaito Kid.

After hearing Jiang Hang's words, Phantom Thief Kid nodded thoughtfully: "I see, that sounds quite interesting."

It looks like Conan will be added to his investigation list.

"Your opponents are much more active than mine. I've only met members of that mysterious organization on my side once or twice so far."

Kaito Kid felt that if his opponents were as active as those at the Black Organization, he would probably have already found out his father's true whereabouts.

"Do you need my help?" Jiang Hang smiled at Phantom Thief Kid.

This time, he helped Kaito Kid, or it could be said that he repaid the favor Kaito Kid had done for him last time.

If Phantom Thief Kid continues to ask him for help, then Jiang Hang can also occasionally ask Phantom Thief Kid for help with things at the art museum.

Seeing the smile on Jiang Hang's face, Phantom Thief Kid's expression turned somewhat strange, as if he had thought of something bad.

"You should deal with that organization first," Kaito Kid said, adjusting his white top hat as he put Conan aside for the time being.

He looked around: "Those police officers should be realizing what's going on here by now, and I should leave."

Chapter 300: Chapter 298: Hopefully, Phantom Thief Kid is alright.

Jiang Hang seemed somewhat disappointed to see that Kaito Kid hadn't fallen for his trick.

After all, his museum has recently encountered a bottleneck in popularity. If he could ride on the coattails of the huge popularity of Kaito Kid, his museum would probably be able to upgrade immediately.

Besides art museums, he wouldn't refuse to ride on the popularity of Kaito Kid if his recently acquired film company and the cinema he's planning to acquire could.

However, it seems that this matter still needs to be addressed gradually.

Thinking of this, he took out another dose of sleeping pills from his person and found himself a comfortable place to sleep.

"Remember to take this sleeping potion after I fall asleep, and remember to clean up all the clues," Jiang Hang reminded Kaito Kid, then held the sleeping potion to his nose and sniffed it hard.

"System, enter the 'Intermediate Forgery' training space." He said this to his system.

Then he yawned and comfortably fell asleep in his seat.

Seeing Jiang Hang's arrogant demeanor, Kaito Kid's lips twitched. In the past few meetings with Jiang Hang, he could be said to have been led by the nose by the other party. Now that Jiang Hang had finally revealed a weakness in front of him, he really wanted to trick Jiang Hang.

In the end, however, Kaito Kid obediently followed Jiang Hang's instructions, cleaned up the traces, and then took the sleeping pills from Jiang Hang's hand.

Of course, as a phantom thief, he couldn't have just taken away one dose of sleeping potion.

In addition, he also smuggled a lot of other drugs that Jiang Hang had concocted himself from Jiang Hang.

Although he didn't yet know the purpose of those medicines, he knew that Jiang Hang was very skilled at preparing medicines, and the things he would carry with him should be of good quality.

If there had been enough time, Phantom Thief Kid would have liked to take apart Jiang Hang's hidden blade here to see how it was made; he was quite interested in such gadgets.

After doing all this, Kaito Kid left the helicopter satisfied.

Even though he was surrounded by police officers, he felt as relaxed as if he were at home.

......

The sleeping potions used by Jiang Hang were all precisely formulated by him.

His physical condition is now far beyond that of ordinary people, and the effects of normal sleeping pills on him will be greatly reduced. In order to ensure that he can wake up at the same time as others, he has deliberately increased the dosage of sleeping pills for himself.

While others only felt the evaporating sedative and fell into a deep sleep, he directly inhaled a powerful wave of sedative at close range.

During this period of sleep, he had mastered the art of forgery, and this skill had also improved his art and painting skills to a basic level.

Even so, he woke up before many others.

When he woke up, several women and Conan, who was still a child, were still asleep.

After waking up from his stupor, Jiang Hang quickly figured out that they were in a small clinic near the Nagano Prefectural Police Station.

Jiang Hang soon realized that all the medicines he had were stolen by that Phantom Thief Kid.

After discovering this, Jiang Hang's expression became quite interesting.

Since Jiang Hang could set traps in his car, he could naturally also set traps in places where he hid things on his person.

Aside from what he takes out himself, it's not so easy for anyone else to steal anything from him.

If Jiang Hang wasn't mistaken, the Phantom Thief Kid who stole the drugs from him should be squatting in some toilet cursing him right now.

As for whether he did it on purpose?

How could that be? Does he look like the kind of person who would betray his partners?

Hope everyone is okay.

Jiang Hang muttered this to himself.

Then he looked to the side.

Hakuba Saguru, who had woken up much earlier than him, was now standing by the hospital bed with a solemn expression, looking out the window at the situation.

"You're awake," Hakuba Saguru nodded slightly upon seeing Jiang Hang wake up, and then began to tell Jiang Hang about Kaito Kid.

"The police in Nagano Prefecture are still searching for traces of Kaito Kid, but they estimated that they would not be able to find him. They did not expect that Kaito Kid would escape again this time."

"Detective Mogi seemed to feel ashamed of himself, and left immediately after waking up."

Jiang Hang put on a somewhat regretful expression: "Actually, it was the same when I fought him last time. I had already caught him at the beginning, but he still managed to escape at the last moment."

Upon hearing Jiang Hang's words, Hakuba Saguru carefully observed Jiang Hang's expression.

After a while, he suddenly asked Jiang Hang, "You should have realized by now that this time Kogoro Mouri is actually Kaito Kid in disguise, right? After all, you should be more familiar with Kogoro Mouri."

As expected, none of these famous detectives are easy to mess with.

Jiang Hang had this thought in his mind.

Hakuba Saguru probably has suspicions about him now, or rather, he suspects everyone, but his suspicions about him are probably the greatest at the moment.

After all, among all the detectives present, if we exclude Conan before he shrunk, only Hakuba Saguru had ever dealt with Kaito Kid.

But Jiang Hang still managed to control the expression on his face very well.

"Of course, I already knew his identity in the afternoon, but I originally intended to find out what he was up to, which is why I didn't expose him." Jiang Hang said this, speaking from the perspective of Hakuba Saguru.

Even after everything was settled last night, Hakuba Saguru did not reveal the identity of Phantom Thief Kid, perhaps because he wanted to see if Phantom Thief Kid would have any other moves.

"I originally planned to make my move on the way back to Tokyo, but it's a pity." He shrugged, clearly expressing his regret.

Bai Ma Tan did not comment on Jiang Hang's explanation, but simply nodded.

"It was my carelessness. If I could use your sleeping potion, it might really be possible to catch Phantom Thief Kid this time."

It seems he was hiding his suspicions.

"Once they all wake up, I'm going to head back. As for the cars left at the Twilight Villa, they'll be transported back to Tokyo after the repair work on the destroyed bridge is completed."

He shifted the topic to another aspect: "For the past two weeks, the higher-ups at the Metropolitan Police Department have been discussing your case. If nothing unexpected happens, it won't be long after you return to Tokyo that the Metropolitan Police Department will grant you the status of a 'special advisor'."

Chapter 301: Chapter 299: I have more wool to fleece?

The biggest advantage of the title of special advisor is that it allows Jiang Hang to go directly to the crime scene to investigate cases. As long as he reveals his identity, he doesn't need to argue with the police. Furthermore, Jiang Hang can also make use of police resources, thereby increasing his efficiency in solving cases.

When Hakuba Saguru was explaining to Jiang Hang, he mentioned rather subtly that the Metropolitan Police Department gave Jiang Hang this title not only because Jiang Hang had helped the Metropolitan Police Department a lot in the past few months, after all, there are quite a few capable detectives in this world.

More importantly, Jiang Hang's attitude towards the Metropolitan Police Department and his own background were enough to make the Metropolitan Police Department communicate with him on an equal footing.

From this perspective, the role of special advisor seems to be quite useful.

But Jiang Hang thought about it carefully and realized that even in Tokyo, the world's most populous city, and in a world full of famous detectives, the number of murder cases in a year was only a few hundred.

Meanwhile, based on the frequency with which Conan, the Grim Reaper, encounters cases, he alone would handle about a hundred of them, while the other part of the murder cases would occur around other famous detectives, criminals, and even lawyers.

Given Jiang Hang's lazy personality, even with the title of Special Advisor to the Metropolitan Police Department, he would neither investigate murder cases every day nor "steal" murder cases from other colleagues.

In addition, the people he usually deals with most are Inspector Megure and Takagi from the First Investigation Division. No matter what case he encounters, he just hands it over to Inspector Megure or Takagi to handle. Even if he comes across a difficult murder case, Inspector Megure and the others will proactively contact him for help.

Therefore, even if he became a special advisor, apart from making the investigation a little more legitimate, it didn't seem to be of much use.

However, Jiang Hang's eyes suddenly lit up.

To be honest, the title of special advisor isn't just for solving murder cases. In fact, more than 70% of the hundreds of thousands of criminal cases in Japan every year are various kinds of theft.

Previously, as an ordinary detective, he couldn't actively participate in such cases, but now that he has an "official identity," it shouldn't be a problem for him, a warm-hearted and positive detective, to go and help over there!

Moreover, he happens to excel at cases involving finding people or things, and the rewards for these cases from the system are much higher than those for daily tasks.

Doesn't that mean that when he's bored in the future, he can occasionally go to the Nakamori police officer in charge of capturing Phantom Thief Kid and act as a strategist to come up with ideas and tease Phantom Thief Kid?

In addition to Kaito Kid, he can also make his presence felt in the teams that take charge of other phantom thieves.

When the time comes, keep the thieves you like and figure out how to exploit them, and just capture the ones you don't like to give them reputation and rewards.

Thinking about this, Jiang Hang felt as if he had discovered the main way to get rich in the future.

After failing to glean any valuable information from Jiang Hang after several attempts, Bai Ma Tan left the clinic.

His trip to the Twilight Villa this time caused quite a stir, even involving a helicopter, so it's necessary to explain the situation to his parents.
