My obsession with role-playing seems to have distorted the world's aesthetic.

Looking at the guy on the hospital bed who sounded surprisingly relaxed at this moment, Kaito Kuroba said with a sense of unscientific disbelief.

"Indeed, the doctors had asked me before why I wasn't dead yet."

But don't worry about that. It was a serious injury I suffered before. Although I haven't fully recovered yet, my condition is basically stable and not life-threatening.

After hearing Xia Qing's answer, Kuroba Kaito nodded. It seems that the hidden world beneath the surface of the world is not peaceful either.

Michi's injuries were indeed so severe that it was hard to believe he was still alive; with injuries of that severity, there were probably very few usable parts left in his body.

Most of the body's organs have crystallized... I think I heard before that this was a disease that developed after being attacked and infected, right?

Looks like I need to be careful from now on. I suspect the other world isn't just full of reckless brutes who rely solely on brute force.

Kaito Kuroba isn't actually very familiar with poisons; Shinichi Kudo, the high school detective, is much more knowledgeable about them.

After all, compared to detectives, phantom thieves normally don't have to deal with deadly poisons.

"I can't find it at all."

Looking at the footage captured by the security camera in front of him, Kuroba Kaito said with a slight headache, while Xia Qing, after a moment of silence, shared her conjecture:

"It looks like he was captured by Yusaku Kudo?"

After all, as a sacrificial offering for the ritual, Yusaku Kudo couldn't let Conan wander around outside, and it seemed that the time for that ritual was approaching.

The most urgent task at present is to destroy this ritual that causes brothers to kill each other, and which seems to greatly benefit Kudo Yusaku.

Hearing this, Ai Haibara nodded in agreement, while Kaito Kuroba, who was not far from her, thought for a moment and said:

"If it is a sacrificial ritual, then there will definitely be a chief priest or a priest. One way to disrupt the ritual is to render the priest incapable of acting."

As long as this ritual continues, there will come a time when I will meet Conan and we will kill each other.

"We definitely need to find a way to disrupt this ritual first, and then figure out how to restore his sanity."

As Kaito Kuroba finished speaking, everyone present agreed, even though their initial feelings were quite different.

Some planned to capture the leader first, while others suggested simply quitting and fleeing to see how people reacted. The three people, with their three different ideas, ultimately settled on one approach.

That is to find the priest or someone of similar status who is in charge of the ceremony, so that the ceremony cannot be held.

"But this one seems even harder to find; this is truly like finding a needle in a haystack."

A few minutes after explaining his thoughts, Kaito Kuroba gave a wry smile, and just then, a pop-up window appeared on the screen:

"If you need help, we can assist you."

Upon seeing the pop-up window that suddenly appeared, Kaito Kuroba's pupils contracted slightly: "Who?"

When did my computer get hacked? This is such outrageous cybersecurity. Is the hacker some kind of world-class hacker?

“We are just travelers. If Kudo Yusaku really succeeds in his plan, it will have a huge impact on us.”

On the other side of the screen, Su Qing slowly began to type.

This statement is actually a lie. Kudo Yusaku's plan has had minimal impact on the Reincarnation Team, because the time when the Reincarnation Team can choose to return directly is not far off.

Faced with the prospect of returning, Su Qing and the others had no intention of continuing to conceal their whereabouts. She planned to take this opportunity to test what kind of existence Kudo Yusaku was in this world.

In the realm of destiny, many reincarnators rely on purchasing information about the world, since not everyone possesses extraordinary memory.

Su Qing was somewhat curious whether the intelligence merchants and even the intelligence trading bureau in the intelligence god space of this world knew about it.

After all, the current plot development in this world can only be described as outrageous compared to the original work.

"So, you can help us find a priest?"

Xia Qing's voice came from the other side of the screen at this moment, while Su Qing clapped her hands with an overwhelming sense of adolescent angst:

"Not bad, I didn't expect you to discover the surveillance I placed there so quickly."

"Our intelligence gathering is unparalleled; with our assistance, the journey to find the priest will likely be much easier."

Upon hearing these words, Kaito Kuroba fell silent. In reality, he didn't have much trust in the suddenly appearing organization.

Chapter 458: The Position of Sacrifice

Judging from the literal meaning, there should be more than one person on the other side. After hesitating for a moment, Kaito Kuroba finally decided to cooperate with them first.

After revealing some of the information I knew, the other party said they were trying to locate the priest's position, and then went silent.

At this moment, Su Qing and Pineapple exchanged glances after receiving a message from Kuroba Kaito: "Do you have any ideas about possible candidates?"

"Do you think I might have that...? The plot of this world has already exceeded my expectations."

Pineapple's tone was somewhat helpless at this moment, and time slowly passed as the group tried to find out the priest's true identity.

Suddenly, the sky turned eerie, with purple and blue hues replacing the original darkness, and an eerie light rapidly expanded.

"What's going on here?"

Noticing this, Pineapple frowned and looked towards the computer, while Su Qing said with some confusion, "There is a strange energy field that is currently spreading rapidly from the Suzuki Tower."

The energy field has now spread beyond the limits of our monitoring system's surveillance range.

That energy field doesn't seem to be its essence; rather, it appears to be formed from some kind of special energy after transformation.

Upon hearing this explanation, Pineapple swallowed hard, sensing that things might be getting serious.

The sudden change in color of the sky looks just like a scene where the villainous boss is about to make his appearance.

Fortunately, my return time is almost here; I just need to hold on for another 11 minutes...

The change in the sky and earth successfully attracted the attention of most of the residents of Beika Town. Kaito Kuroba felt uneasy as he looked at the sky, which had suddenly turned into a mixed color like an oil painting.

The fact that such a drastic change occurred in the sky at this very moment makes it highly unlikely that it was completely unrelated to the ceremony.

"Time is up."

At that moment, the bell rang, followed by a voice that had been disguised and was completely unrecognizable.

Although the original voice cannot be heard, the disguise effect is quite obvious; that electromagnetic sound is clearly not the sound a normal human should have.

"O mortals, trapped in the mundane world and unable to escape, be thankful for this."

A god is about to descend to this world, and the starry sky is a ceremony to celebrate his arrival.

The time for the stars to return to their rightful place has come, and all the efforts of those who resist will ultimately be in vain.

As a priest and messenger of the god who proclaims the end times, I welcome any challenge from those who wish to stop it all.

Of course, their challenge was destined to be futile.

The descent of the gods cannot be defied; all of this is ordained by fate.

A hint of excitement emanated from his voice, and at the same time, the positions of the stars on the starry curtain constructed of eerie colors began to move rapidly.

"We've found the location of the ritual site; it's right at Suzuki Tower!"

Xia Qing frowned and closed his eyes slightly, as if sensing something. At this moment, he spoke to Kuroba Kaito in his secret sworn brotherhood.

After saying that, he began to quickly construct a spatial passage leading to Suzuki. Upon seeing the completed spatial passage, Kaito Kuroba took a deep breath.

Without hesitation, he acted decisively and immediately traveled to the location of Suzuki Tower through the spatial passage. At this moment, at the top of Suzuki Tower, Akemi Miyano revealed a smile on her lips, indicating that her plan had been completed.

"It's time to come out, come out and face your death."

As soon as she finished speaking, Akemi Miyano, wearing a pure black mask, snapped her fingers, and a spatial rift appeared immediately afterward, from which Conan fell out.

Conan, who had just come out of the cage, hadn't even had time to react when he saw Kaito Kuroba crossing space and arriving. Faced with this scene, he felt something inside him influencing his thoughts.

"Kill! Kill Phantom Thief Kid!"

After saying a sentence with his pupils dilated, Conan rushed directly towards Kaito Kuroba's position, and Kaito Kuroba, who had just arrived, had no choice but to raise the Blade of Rebellion to meet the attack.

"You two brothers can just have your own little fight right there."

Akemi Miyano, who had been sitting in her prepared seat, calmly watched this scene unfold. At that moment, Ai Haibara followed closely behind and arrived at the same location through the spatial passage.

"You're the priest, right? That means if we defeat you, this ritual can't be held!"

Looking at Miyano Akemi sitting on the stone seat, Ai Haibara, who did not recognize her but felt that Akemi's figure looked somewhat familiar, said this.

"Oh... so you want to fight me? In that case, I'll play along and stretch my muscles a bit."

Akemi Miyano stretched her wrists, her tone remaining calm, while Ai Haibara clenched her fists, assuming a fighting stance.

He will defeat the priest before him and stop this tragedy.

During this time, Ai Haibara gained some understanding of her own power, realizing that it was somewhat different from that of Kaito Kid.

Kidd's Rebellion Sword is like a converter; it grants him a significant power boost when he acts in a way that aligns with rebellious emotions.

The stronger one's rebellious spirit, the greater the boost one can receive. As for myself... my power seems to be somewhat related to my emotions.

If Kid's power comes from his rebellious spirit, then the source of my own impression is... determination?

Recalling her previous attempts at different mindsets, Ai Haibara had this thought.

Closing her eyes and filling her heart with determination once more, Miyano Akemi, not far away, launched the first attack.

The two figures quickly crossed paths at the top of the Suzuki Tower, which is now divided into two areas.

On the left, Kaito Kuroba and Conan are locked in a fierce battle with no clear victor, while on the right, Ai Haibara is subtly gaining the upper hand.

"Your strength has indeed exceeded my expectations. You truly live up to my... Never mind, there's no use saying this now. I'm about to get serious."

As soon as she finished speaking, Akemi Miyano's momentum surged even higher, and the balance of power between the two shifted once again.

Just as Miyano Akemi was about to win, the arrival of another person gave Haibara Ai the upper hand again.

Without the Enma sword, Conan was no match for Kaito Kuroba. After temporarily stunning Conan, Kaito Kuroba quickly came to provide support.

"That's it, you have no chance of winning!"

Ai Haibara spoke with certainty, and upon hearing this, Akemi Miyano began to ponder a way to break the deadlock.

However, she was no match for the two against one. Kaito Kuroba's slash just happened to tear the mask on Akemi Miyano's face.

Upon seeing the face hidden beneath the mask, Ai Haibara's expression was filled with disbelief.

"Sister...Sister?"
