Conan Rick's Investigator

Kaito Kidd circled over Las Vegas on a hang glider and placed several magic props given by Koizumi Hongzi at the five corners of the pentagram.

“They’re all put away!”

Kaito Kid flew over from a distance and reminded Koizumi Hongzi that the preparations were complete.

Riding on the magic broom, Koizumi Hongzi immediately closed her eyes and gathered all her magic power to activate the magic circle.

But at this moment, the Night Demon seemed to understand what humans said.

Ignoring the flames burning on his body, he pounced towards Koizumi Hongzi who was hanging in the air with his huge body like a black cloud.

Koizumi Hongzi was still controlling the magic power in her body to complete the magic circle, when she suddenly smelled a burnt, smelly, hot air wave approaching rapidly.

She suddenly opened her eyes and found that the night demon was flying towards her rapidly, with wings burning with flames as if it had just returned from hell.

In her haste, she made a mistake and her eyes met directly with the Night Demon's fiery red eye!

Koizumi Hongzi took a breath of cold air, but it was too late to dodge. Her originally bright eyes were immediately covered with a layer of turbid darkness.

Her expression was stunned as she hung in the air motionless, about to be hit by the night demon covered in flames.

"Hongzi——!"

Kaito Kidd shouted in the air, turned his glider around and went to rescue.

But the distance of just a dozen meters is far beyond reach.

At this critical moment, a bullet, trailing smoke, flew from the ground into the sky, and with a bang, it exploded with a violent white light.

The instantaneous burst of white light illuminated the area within a radius of several hundred meters as bright as day.

It's a flare!

Kaito Kidd quickly looked in the direction where the flare was launched, and saw Kaito Crow standing on the ground holding a flare gun.

Qin Zhibo's mind was filled with only one thought: where to get "light".

The only strong light source available in this environment is flares.

So Qin Zhibo found a weapons store and bought a signal gun and some flares for free.

The light of a flare does not last long, but Qin Zhibo raised his gun and fired another flare into the sky.

The strong light stimulated the Night Demon so much that he could not move, and white smoke came out of his body in the white light.

Kaito Kid immediately understood what he meant, flew to Koizumi Anko with a hang glider, and grabbed Koizumi Anko, who was in a hallucination, into his arms.

As for the magic broom, it lost its master and fell down alone, spinning.

Kaito Kid carried Koizumi Akako to the rooftop of a building and quickly called Koizumi Akako's name.

"Koizumi Hongzi! Wake up!"

"Hey! Wake up!"

After several calls and vigorous shaking, Koizumi Hongzi finally woke up.

When she woke up again, she felt as if she was in another world. Her eyes were wide open as if she had seen something extraordinary.

She murmured: "Nyarlathotep... the palace of Azathoth..."

"What are you talking about?" asked Kaito Kidd in confusion.

"No, nothing..."

Koizumi Hongzi came back to her senses, got up and asked, "What's going on now?"

Kaito Kidd pointed to the sky not far away and said, "Uncle is stalling for time..."

In the direction Kidd pointed, flares were fired into the sky as if they were free.

But even so, the Night Demon just kept struggling in the strong light and could not be driven away.

"It seems that the only way to defeat magic is to use magic..."

Koizumi Hongzi closed her eyes, clenched her fists, and released red magic power from her whole body.

Along with the outflow of magic power, the five magic items placed by Kaito Kidd earlier also emitted red light.

In an instant, the streets of Las Vegas were filled with crimson light, and even the glass of the buildings emitted a dazzling red light.

At this moment, it was as if the red moon had descended.

The points were connected to each other, and a red pentagram magic circle gradually formed in the middle of the city.

Kaito Kidd looked at the city where red light was emerging, with a surprised expression on his face.

This was the magic circle that Koizumi Akako had set up at Tokyo Tower when he and she first met as a thief and a witch.

This magic circle has the effect of immobilizing people and burning them with fire. The disadvantage is that it will become ineffective when it snows.

But right now, Las Vegas is located in an extremely dry desert, and the probability of snow is extremely low.

The crimson light blooming in this city is the strong light source that the Night Demon cannot avoid!

The crimson light rising from the city shone on the Night Demon. Although it did not cause any substantial attack, the Night Demon let out a wailing cry.

Lloyd on the Starry Sky Building looked around at the inexplicable red light appearing on the street. Now he could no longer turn off the lights.

"Do not--!"

"This is impossible!"

The Night Demon in mid-air rolled his huge body to dodge, but the red light emitted by the entire city endlessly eroded the black air above, leaving him nowhere to hide.

The black cloud became smaller and smaller until a fist-sized heterohedron fell from it.

Chapter 1019 Sensation

Under the red light of the entire city, the Night Demon's body turned into a ball of white smoke.

The three-petal fiery red eye slowly went out in the mass of white eyes.

As the Night Demon disappeared, Lloyd on the rooftop kept wailing, as if he felt the same way.

The white-robed believers gathered in the square left in a hurry.

From the white smoke, a round black heterohedron fell out and plummeted to the ground.

The sharp-eyed Kaito Kidd was the first to discover this little thing and leaped down.

When the anomaly was about to fall to the ground, Kaito Kidd reached out and grabbed the little thing, which was the black diamond "Black Crow in the Night".

Kaito Kidd controlled the glider to fly across the sky while observing the diamond in his hand. The thirty-eight irregular faces were flashing with evil black light.

"Is it all because of this?"

Kaito Kidd frowned and was about to put the loot into his pocket, but then he thought of something and quickly took it out.

On the ground, Qin Zhibo looked at Kaito Kidd who was fleeing into the distance, with a relieved smile on his face.

He knew that tonight could finally come to an end.

……

The next day, Qin Zhibo woke up in his hotel room.

I looked at the clock on the wall and it was already 11:00 am. I had only slept for 9 hours since last night.

Qin Zhibo checked his willpower value and found that all the lost willpower had been restored. The current willpower was 90.

That's the benefit of having an iron will.

Although the Iron Willpower decreases by the same amount as that of an ordinary person when the Willpower is reduced, the recovery speed is very fast, and the Willpower can be revived almost to full capacity upon waking up.

Opening the curtains, Qin Zhibo stretched comfortably towards the window.

Outside the window, there was a doomsday scene.

After a night of zero-dollar shopping and urban riots, Las Vegas was left in ruins.

As dawn arrived, the National Guard, responsible for disaster relief and riot control, finally arrived, but the once bustling streets had completely fallen into a doomsday-like silence.

Broken glass, dried blood, unextinguished flames, the bodies of the mob...all of these tell the story of what kind of hellish nightmare the city had experienced last night.

Las Vegas is a city built to release desires.

It is magnificent and extravagant.

And last night, the city brought this feature to its fullest potential.

Located in the middle of the desert, Las Vegas is like a giant octagonal cage where people can unleash the beast instincts hidden deep in their genes.

……

Qin Zhibo wanted to take a shower first. He was too tired last night and went to bed without washing off the fishy smell on his body.

But when I turned on the faucet, not even a drop of water came out.

After calling the front desk to inquire, I learned that the water supply in Las Vegas is currently being used for disaster relief, and the fires in several large convenience stores have not been completely extinguished.

However, if you need water now, the hotel can provide free bottled water.

"Okay, then send up two boxes first."

After a while, the hotel waiter brought two boxes of bottled water, the brand was still French Evian.

When the waiter was carrying water, Qin Zhibo saw a large gold Rolex Day-Date watch inadvertently exposed from the waiter's sleeve.

The waiter also realized that he had shown off his wealth, so he quickly stood up and covered his watch with his sleeve with one hand.

"Okay, sir, you can call me anytime if you need any help."

The waiter fled without even asking for a tip.

Qin Zhibo sighed inwardly, it seems that no matter how crazy he experienced last night, he still has to work during the day.

Qin Zhibo carried a box of water to the bathroom and started taking a shower.

Taking a bath with Evian water mainly means being rich and willful!

……

After only 20 minutes of showering, Qin Zhibo came out.

I have to say, taking a shower with Evian water is really awkward. The water flow is too small, and it’s not comfortable and it’s boring.

At this time, the hotel broadcast a notice that the TV signal has been restored and the TV can now be used.

Qin Zhibo turned on the TV, and almost every channel was broadcasting special reports about the Las Vegas power outage.

The official figures for casualties and economic losses are still being compiled.

However, the most discussed topic at present is not the beautiful inter-city scenery. After all, traditional programs like "zero-yuan purchase" do not need to be emphasized repeatedly. There is nothing special about it.

What the media are most concerned about is the "strange phenomena in heaven and earth" before and during the power outage last night.

Last night was the day of the double trailer for Kaito Kid and Kaito Crow, and many reporters came to report on it.

Therefore, within half a day, videotapes about the unusual phenomena in Las Vegas were all over the streets, and almost every TV station could release some exclusive inside information.

The recording conditions of these videotapes are not very good, and the images are very shaky.

But a huge dark object appeared inside them all at the same time, like a black meteor with life and will.

Currently, there is no consensus among various parties regarding this black meteor, and it is mainly divided into two factions.

One group believes that the Black Meteor is a show jointly performed by Kaito Kidd and Kaito Crow. After all, these two Kaitos are very good at magic fraud.

Another group believes that black meteors are real aliens, commonly known as "UFOs", and have independent consciousness.

There are many supporters of both theories, but the proportion of those who believe it is aliens is higher.

From an emotional point of view, this statement is very romantic. Aliens, this may be the first time in the world that aliens have been made public to the public!

This day will become history!

From a rational point of view, the famous Area 51 is only 130 kilometers away from Las Vegas, less than two hours' drive, not to mention flying.

It is possible that the aliens imprisoned in Area 51 escaped, or that the aliens in Area 51 sent out a distress signal, and other aliens rushed from outer space to rescue them.

Of course, no matter what the reason, this topic has become the hottest topic in the United States and even the world as of today.
