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

He wasn't the only one confused; at that moment, Kuroba Chikage was completely stunned.

Without a doubt, she has only given birth to one child, Kaito Kuroba. So what is the situation with her older brother?

Could it be...?

Kuroba Chikage's expression turned serious, clearly realizing the gravity of the situation.

"Dao Yi had a child with another woman behind my back?!"

Unable to control her emotions, Kuroba Chikage said, "Although reason tells me that Touichi isn't that kind of person, but... but what if it is true?"

Hearing Kuroba Chikage's words, Aoko was at a loss. She felt that it would be better for her not to be there in this atmosphere.

After all, the fact that Kaito has an older brother without his mother's knowledge could easily be interpreted as infidelity or something similar.

Chapter 520: Bronya, who's having an amazing time, makes her debut!

elder brother?

Wait, wait, when did Shinichi get a younger brother who looks so much like him?

He looked at Shinichi Yukiko on the screen with a surprised expression, but soon looked at Kudo Yusaku next to him with a suspicious look.

"Do you... have any clues?"

Yukiko's tone was somewhat dangerous at that moment, and upon hearing her words, Yusaku Kudo immediately replied, "There must be some misunderstanding. You know me, how could I possibly go back to doing something like cheating?"

Kudo Yusaku said this with a clear conscience. He truly had no memory of that "magician," and besides, he had always been a clean person and there was no way he could have had an illegitimate child.

Looking at Yukiko Kudo's confident statement, Yusaku hesitated. Yusaku's words were so firm, as if he had never done anything he shouldn't have.

Could it be... because of some misunderstanding?

But what kind of misunderstanding could have led to Shinichi having a younger brother who looks extremely similar to him?

As Yukiko hesitated, Kaito Kuroba, whose expression was somewhat different from his last appearance, revealed a playful expression on the screen: "Tsk tsk tsk, this is quite an interesting development."

If the previous Kaito Kuroba's eyes revealed a determination to change the world, then the current Kaito Kuroba reveals a belief in finding some fun and enjoyment out of boredom.

"I see. If you had seen us, things would have been a little awkward, my brother."

Seeing this, Kaito Kuroba nodded and said, "That's right. After all, it's really going too far to continue using the identity of Kaito Kid in front of me, the real Kaito Kid."

Kaito Kuroba seemed to be revealing some incredible news in his words, and Shinichi nodded: "Indeed, but I didn't expect you to have already returned to Earth."

???

Watching the conversation between the two on the screen, Yukiko in the real world felt that it was quite amazing that she had inexplicably gained a son.

Back to Earth? Good grief, was this magician always outside of Earth?

Could it be that his son, who suddenly appeared out of nowhere, dreams of becoming an astronaut?

At this moment, Conan quietly breathed a sigh of relief, although it was indeed quite unexpected that he had an older brother who was a phantom thief.

Fortunately, he managed to get rid of the identity of Phantom Thief Kid.

That's true, no matter how I think about it, I could never become a phantom thief.

But this brother who appeared out of nowhere... well, it seems like Father is probably in trouble.

As Conan thought this, on the other side of the theater, Kaito Kuroba's finally calmed-down state of mind instantly collapsed.

Is he... teasing me from across the room?

He had just proven that he wasn't Phantom Thief Kid, but then he completely confirmed that he was.

This is quite sudden.

Looking at the gazes of the others around him, Kaito Kuroba said that he felt panicked, very panicked, extremely panicked.

While he was panicking, Hakuba Saguru, who was in the same private room, looked at Kaito with an expression of "I knew it would happen."

"It seems everything is just as I predicted. Kaito Kuroba, you are Kaito Kid!"

Hakuba Saguru said this with a rather smug tone, and the next moment, Kuroba Kaito forcibly suppressed the thought of how much his crime would be reduced by turning himself in and said:

"Bai Ma, you need to have evidence when you do things. Besides, there might be a twist on the screen."

"I, Kaito Kuroba, am not some kind of Phantom Thief Kid. I have no interest in stealing jewels and then returning them to enjoy toying with the police."

Seeing Kuroba Kaito stubbornly refusing to admit his guilt, Hakuba Saguru frowned but quickly relaxed. "Kuroba Kaito, or rather, Kaito Kid, all your resistance will only lead to one outcome."

That's all of Mu Da!

Your true identity is now as concealed as a candle flickering in the wind; the final movement of this epic battle between detective and phantom thief has finally arrived.

I, high school detective Hakuba Saguru, will be the one to put handcuffs on you!

Hakuba Saguru smiled contentedly. Yes, my guess was correct, there was no mistake.

The idea that Kaito Kid is Shinichi Kudo, a high school detective like himself, is all fake. There is no doubt that Kaito Kid is actually Kaito Kuroba.

A stubborn resistance?

It's useless, useless, useless!

Seeing that victory was assured, Kaito Kuroba forced himself not to show too much emotional fluctuation, and a poker face kept circulating in his mind.

No, the one on the screen isn't necessarily yourself. If you look closely, you'll find many differences. For example, you wouldn't wear a monocle while wearing casual clothes.

Moreover, the material of that monocle was different from his own, and the style of his clothing was not the striking white of Kaito Kid, but black.

The image of yourself on the screen might not actually be you?

Kaito Kuroba suddenly thought of a possibility, and the more he thought about it, the stranger it seemed. If the person on the screen who looked exactly like him wasn't him, then who was he?

Unlike Shinichi Kudo, Kaito Kuroba, a master of disguise, is quite familiar with all sorts of subtle human features, which are also very clearly displayed on the screen.

Who is that person on the screen who looks exactly like me but is completely different inside?

Kaito Kuroba's composure began to falter, and Chikage Kuroba, whose disguise skills were not weak, also discovered this terrifying fact after careful observation.

Before the two experts in disguise could figure it out, the images on the screen changed again.

A brilliant red light suddenly flashed, and the core space on the deck of the Saint Diana began to crack, with white patterns spreading from the core.

The people who were pulled into the dream world by Shin-Zero also realized this and prepared to return to reality.

Zhen Ling, standing at the point where the coordinates overlapped with the coordinates of the real world, nodded in satisfaction. Now he was beginning to access the power of the dream world.

As long as he releases the power, he will instantly appear at the point of convergence in the real world. Shin-Zero can already imagine the scene of him wielding the power of the Serpent Blood Eye.

The dream world shattered at this moment, and everyone returned to reality, but Shin-Zero's expression changed.

The coordinates have been disrupted.

Where he was supposed to be, a flat-chested girl was holding the Serpent Blood Eye, a triumphant smile on her face.

"Is this the power of the Great Serpent, the ruler of the Heavenly Gods? Hahaha, the power of the Great Serpent is really getting me hyped up!"

The girl who suddenly appeared spoke in a tone similar to that of a certain Herrscher of Knowledge, and in short, she was in an extremely high-spirited state. At this moment, Bronya occupied the center of the screen.

Chapter 521: The Meeting of Cadres

"Bronya, sister?"

Seeing Seele's image on the screen, she exclaimed in surprise. Meanwhile, Bronya, looking at herself completely absorbed in the moment, instinctively uttered her own thoughts: "Is Bronya out of her mind with all that hype? That tone of hers is so weird..."

"Why did Bronya suddenly appear in this movie theater, and with such an entrance and music that it's like she's a villainous boss?"

Kiana made a comment at this moment, while Bronya herself said in a tone of "As expected of me": "There is nothing that Bronya cannot do. It's just a mere villainous BOSS."

Meanwhile, Cocolia, in another section of the theater, looked somewhat surprised, clearly not expecting that the suddenly appearing figure was Bronya.

"This is really..."

Walter Young looked at the screen with a complicated expression. Just how much trouble had he, as the successor, gotten himself into?

Many members of Anti-Entropy were gathered in the screening room at this moment, and Bronya, who had seized the Serpent's Blood Eye, spoke calmly on the screen:

"You don't really think I didn't discover that thing, do you? Trying to outmaneuver someone who has been a dictator and reversed entropy for three hundred years is pure wishful thinking with your previous crude methods."

Bronya's calm voice held a hint of mockery, and as she finished speaking, a monocle made of crystal appeared out of thin air on her right hand.

Meanwhile, in the real world, a certain traitor was momentarily stunned upon seeing this scene.

That monocle... it feels so familiar.

He subconsciously took out the monocle he had prepared to scare people from his pocket. This thing, which was almost identical to the monocle on the screen, was the one he had used to imitate the dangerous enemy.

However, he did not notice at that moment that the spiritual energy on his monocle was suddenly gathering and slowly beginning to receive the information on the screen.

"Although I don't know who you are, a wise person would choose to give up that crystal at this moment. It is a power that only an emperor like me, who reigns over the mortal world, can control."

Zhen Ling was completely unconcerned about his ambition being exposed. His life motto was to win and then dominate, and now he was ready to welcome the greatest victory he had ever known.

The Serpent's Blood Eye is the first step. If his plan is successful, he will become a god who reigns over the world, the true king of Earth.

Upon hearing Zhen Ling's words, which made no attempt to conceal his murderous intent, Bronya replied in a self-righteous voice, "Emperor? Hmm, I should be considered an emperor too, the emperor of Anti-Entropy."

"This gem will be accepted by me, the emperor who opposes entropy."

As soon as she finished speaking, Bronya vanished without a trace, and Shin-Zero's expression changed upon seeing this.

At that moment, not far from him, Kaito Kuroba said with a somewhat frustrated tone, "Well, since we didn't get the expected haul, I apologize to everyone so as not to leave empty-handed."

As he finished speaking, countless light gray threads connected Kuroba Kaito's body to everyone present, and streams of energy were absorbed into his body.

"I'm going to be... I'm going to be completely drained."

Akizuki Airi coughed a few times, her face pale, while on the other side, Kudo Shinichi had already destroyed the threads on his body before Kuroba Kaito began to absorb energy.

"What terrible lines."

Looking at "Kaito Kuroba" on the screen, Akizuki Kozo, who was watching the video call, thought to herself, but she soon realized the problem.

Wait a minute, isn't something wrong here? Shouldn't you guys be switching lines?

On the screen, the incident of the Saint Diana being taken away with the Serpent Blood Eye came to a temporary end. After realizing that there was no profit to be made, the people from different organizations who were almost drained by Kaito Kuroba left.

Well, before I left, I jotted down Kaito Kid's name in my little notebook, planning to issue a warrant for his arrest when I get back.

Because of that casual inhalation earlier, Phantom Thief Kid has now become a wanted criminal by multiple organizations.
