This surprised her, but also made her somewhat delighted.
Although I don't know exactly what's going on, it's a good thing!
In this way, he wouldn't have to go inside and damage the power distribution cabinet, thus reducing the risk of exposure.
Although Kumiko Kishi didn't see the person's face, was there any need to think about it?
There can only be one person who would cause trouble at a time like this: Phantom Thief Kid!
That thief must have been after a painting, which is why he caused the power outage. After all, he had caused power outages many times before when he stole jewels, and then took advantage of the darkness to make his move!
It's definitely him.
Kumiko Kishi felt that even God was helping her.
She thanked Phantom Thief Kid in her heart, then quickly returned to the fifth-floor exhibition hall she was responsible for guarding, ready to take action.
……
At the same time.
The three black-clad members of the organization, who were monitoring the exit of the Lake Rock Museum with sniper scopes, all noticed the guests being asked to leave the exhibition hall.
As the visitors left, the museum's metal bulletproof doors were lowered, completely isolating the inside from the outside.
Carvados, Chianti, Cohen: ...? ? ?
Carvados hesitated, "Have you seen Shuichi Akai... or anyone similar to him?"
Chianti gritted her teeth and said, "No! That Bourbon guy... Could it be that he really betrayed the organization? Started making up information to fool the organization?"
Cohen said, "It doesn't seem like it."
Chianti turned to him and snapped, "How do you know it doesn't look like him? Do you know him better than I do? Let me tell you, nobody knows Bourbon better than me! I've had a feeling something was off about that guy for a long time; he'd definitely betrayed us!"
Cohen opened his mouth, then said dryly, "Because Bourbon didn't come out either."
Chianti: ...
Carvados said thoughtfully, "If that's the case, those who have come out now should all be ordinary guests. I noticed that other people related to the art exhibition don't seem to have come out, such as that old man Suzuki and the people around him."
Chianti snorted coldly, her face sour, and said, "And the Black Hand... Tch, I bet Bourbon ran into the Black Hand and died inside, right? Otherwise, why would the exhibition hall suddenly close down?"
Cohen took out his phone, silently searched for a webpage, and then handed it to Chianti.
Chianti: ...?
"You want me to look at my phone? What do you mean? We're doing serious business here, so get your act together!"
Cohen put his phone away and read the text aloud: "According to our reporter's on-site report, visitors are continuously leaving the Recklock Museum of Art..."
"What exactly happened inside the museum? Visitor K did not receive any direct explanation, but according to reporters' speculation, this incident is most likely related to Phantom Thief Kid."
“Phantom Thief… Kid?” Chianti repeated the word, his face full of confusion. “You mean there’s a thief inside stealing things?”
Cohen nodded and said, "Yes, so Bourbon and Shuichi Akai... are probably trapped inside."
Chianti: ...
For some reason, she always felt uncomfortable just hearing that name.
The two art styles are completely different.
His own organization consists of ruthless criminals who don't blink an eye, while Phantom Thief Kid is a magician with all sorts of tricks up his sleeve... So Bourbon got trapped because of those kinds of guys?
"Pah, Bourbon is a piece of trash." She spat angrily.
Suddenly, Gin's somber voice came through the earpiece: "Perhaps it's not necessarily because of Kaito Kid, but because Bourbon wanted to claim all the credit for capturing Shuichi Akai, so he approached him on his own initiative..."
The sound of the gin carried a hint of schadenfreude.
He didn't know much about Bourbon's personality, but one thing was certain: the guy really wanted to capture the traitorous Rye Whiskey, probably to impress the boss.
But it's probably not that easy.
The reason why Shuichi Akai became a major threat to the organization is not only because of his superb sniping skills, but also because he has no weaknesses in any of his other abilities, making him terrifyingly strong!
His driving skills, fighting skills, hacking abilities, and even intelligence reasoning and analysis skills are all top-notch.
In addition, his understanding of the Black Organization led the boss to believe that he could cause fatal damage to the organization, thus giving him the nickname "Silver Bullet".
In addition to Shuichi Akai being very strong, there is also a high probability that there is another elite FBI investigator, Gray Night, in that art museum.
That guy… Gin didn’t want to think about it too much.
It annoys me just thinking about it.
However, it must be acknowledged that in some respects, Haiya is no less powerful than Shuichi Akai.
Bourbon is no weakling, but against two FBI elites, he has absolutely no chance of winning.
In other words, if Bourbon wanted to capture Shuichi Akai and achieve great success, he might actually become the FBI's hero.
Gin had a flurry of thoughts, then sneered, "If Bourbon is really caught by the FBI, and your rescue attempt fails, you can kill him to silence him!"
Such cadres, who possess numerous organizational secrets, must not fall into the hands of the FBI under any circumstances.
Carvados was oblivious to all the intricacies; he was only concerned with one thing: "Gin, if they don't come out, are we just going to have to wait here like this?"
Gin snorted and said calmly, "No need to rush, let's wait a bit longer. If the people inside still don't come out... I'll make them come out on their own."
Calvados said no more.
He had already figured it out; Gin must have prepared some methods in advance to force the people inside out.
It's likely that a bomb was planted inside.
That's definitely Gin's style...
……
Natsumi Miyadai walked silently through the dark passageway.
She could faintly hear the hum of emergency generators starting up, knowing that power had been restored to some key areas, including the surveillance cameras facing the paintings of sunflowers and some disaster prevention and emergency measures.
But this will not affect her actions.
Once Higashi Koji and Kishi Kumiko succeed in their scheme, I can easily snatch the masterpiece from them and complete the organization's mission!
But... did Phantom Thief Kid really infiltrate the art museum?
Will this affect his future actions?
A hint of coldness flashed in Miyadai Natsumi's eyes.
Her previous two operations were thwarted by Kid. If that guy dares to come again, then don't blame her for being impolite... You should know that there are many hidden places in this art museum where she and Akiyoshi Minako have planted bombs in advance!
Even if Kidd can transform and fly, he will definitely be unable to withstand a bomb explosion as long as he is still made of flesh and blood.
Suddenly she paused, and faint footsteps could be heard in the darkness.
Someone's coming!
Could it be Phantom Thief Kid?
Natsumi Miyatai narrowed her eyes, quickly assessing the locations of the bombs in the vicinity and identifying which ones could pose a threat to Phantom Thief Kid.
She quietly took a remote detonator out of her pocket, held it in her hand, and prepared to detonate it.
……
At this moment, those who covet "Sunflower" are not the only ones walking in the darkness.
Naoto Hayashi, Haiya, Ai Haibara, and Nanatsuki Koshimizu also dispersed and walked among the different floors of the art museum.
Naoto Hayashi and Ai Haibara walked on the fifth-floor passage, preparing to check the condition of the fifth painting, "Sunflower".
Regarding the murder that occurred two days ago, Ai Haibara had already asked Naoto about it and confirmed that it was a murder case and had nothing to do with Kaito Kid; it was purely a coincidence that they ran into each other.
But she already had some guesses about the real killer's identity.
There were only three people in the enclosed train carriage at the time: a police inspector and the deceased. It's really hard to guess who the murderer is...
"So the murderer is that Natsumi Miyadai?" Ai Haibara asked incredulously. "She seems to have a very nice personality. Was it all an act?"
Naoto Hayashi laughed and said, "Where's your radar? Can it only detect members of the Black Organization?"
Ai Haibara paused for a moment, somewhat speechless.
My radar's sensing capabilities are limited, so I'm truly disappointed in you... What do you take me for? A humanoid radar? There's no such thing.
She said irritably, "I've just been in the Black Organization for so long that I'm more sensitive to the aura of those malice and murderous executives. I can't actually sense bad guys... But this kind of reasoning isn't difficult. Didn't Kudo notice?"
Naoto Hayashi shrugged and said, "He's a detective, and detectives need evidence to make deductions. You can't get a murderer to confess just by talking. Unfortunately, there was no direct evidence in the train car to prove that Natsumi Miyatai was the murderer."
Ai Haibara wasn't surprised by this; Kudo was indeed like that.
To be honest, she wasn't really interested in catching the real culprits. After all, criminals targeted by their own organization rarely had a good ending; the only difference was when and how they were arrested.
What she cares about more now is browsing the art exhibition alone with Zhi Ren!
There were no other random people around, like Sonoko, Ran, or Nanatsuki!
Just thinking about it makes me happy.
Although their current mission is to search the art museum and find Kid... in reality, Kid is a member of their own organization, so Ai Haibara naturally won't take the search seriously.
She looked at Naoto Hayashi and asked, "Naoto-nii, what's going on between us now..."
Snapped!
The lights went out.
Ai Haibara: ...
She quietly approached Zhi Ren and grabbed his clothes.
Chapter 761 The bomb exploded! x2
Inside the Lake Rock Museum.
A sudden power outage caused all the lights in the corridor to go out.
Ai Haibara panicked slightly, but she quickly grabbed Naoto's clothes next to her and leaned closer to him.
I immediately felt much more at ease.
Then she realized something was wrong: "Why did the power suddenly go out? Is it that kid Kidd messing things up again?"
Naoto Hayashi shook his head and said, "Unfortunately, it's not this time."
The little bees he left behind in various places had long since seen everything that happened inside the art museum.
Lin Zhiren took out his phone from his pocket and turned on the small flashlight, illuminating a small section of the corridor.
Ai Haibara frowned and said, "Naoto-kun, I think I can sense the presence of the Black Organization... Could it be that some of their agents have come?"
Naoto Hayashi nodded and smiled, "Your radar is indeed effective against the Black Organization. That's right, an agent did get in this time... and you even know that guy, the detective Amuro Tooru whom I've met a few times before."
Ai Haibara immediately thought of that blond, dark-skinned guy.
She asked with some doubt, "What are the Black Organization doing here? Do they also want to capture Kid? Or do they want to steal 'Sunflower'?"
Lin Zhiren looked into the darkness and smiled, "I don't know either, but we can go and take a look."
Ai Haibara was suddenly filled with anticipation.
Hopefully, that black-clad organization leader won't be ungrateful.
She's fired shots at Gin and vodka, wounded Bellmouth, and perhaps she'll find a chance to fire a burst at Amuro Tooru as well.
Unfortunately, due to the strict security checks required for entry today, she was unable to bring the two toy guns in.
Let's see how Zhiren handles this.
The two hurried off in a certain direction.
……
The art museum has five underground floors.
The fifth painting, "Sunflower," is displayed here. It was originally housed in the Japan Museum of Art.
Kumiko Kishi quickly returned to her post, but her first action was not to protect the painting. Instead, taking advantage of the fact that most of the surveillance cameras were out of power, she covered the only camera that was positioned directly in front of the painting and had just been restored.
She knew this was the activation of the building's emergency generators, supplying power to some of the most critical parts.
