Conan Rick's Investigator

"Okay, maybe next time..."

Qin Zhibo drove away from the Maori Detective Agency and headed straight to the dock.

On the way back, Qin Zhibo received a text message from Ma Chengshi, saying that he had recovered from his illness and was ready to return to Tokyo.

In fact, on Yueying Island, Qin Zhibo had already asked Ma Chengshi about his future plans.

After thinking about it for a night, Masashi decided to leave Yueying Island.

When he first went to Tsukikage Island, Masamichi went there with the intention of investigating the cause of death of his father's family and seeking revenge.

Now that I have avenged myself, I am no longer so attached to Moon Shadow Island and think it would be better to return to Tokyo for development.

Now Qin Zhibo is on his way to the dock to pick up Ma Chengshi.

While driving, Qin Zhibo carefully sorted out Masamichi's motivation for moving back to Tokyo.

Asami wants to go back to his adoptive parents' home.

Asai Narimi's adoptive parents' surname is Asai, which is also the origin of the name Asai Narimi.

However, according to Asai Narumi himself, his adoptive parents had to support him because they wanted to manage the considerable inheritance left by Keiji Aso after his death, and after he went to college, they had less and less contact with each other.

Thinking of the inheritance, Qin Zhibo remembered that there was still 60 US dollars in the bank safe that he had not told him.

Asanami wants to continue his revenge on Hideo Kawashima who lives in Aoyama Mental Hospital.

Hideo Kawashima is currently receiving treatment at Aoyama Psychiatric Hospital because he has been diagnosed with mental problems.

If Asano had a strong desire for revenge, would he chase Hideo Kawashima to Aoyama Mental Hospital and kill him?

I just hope that's not the case...

Asami really wants to get close to him.

In Qin Zhibo's interpersonal network, Ma Chengmi is naturally his friend, and there is only one entry in the relationship, which is "want to get close".

Could it be that Asami wants to get closer to me?

From a certain perspective, Qin Zhibo doesn't want his life to become "even more difficult."

……

When he arrived at the dock, Qin Zhibo saw Ma Chengshi standing by the dock waiting quietly.

A black dress fluttered gently in the sea breeze, and she still had that familiar ponytail.

Qin Zhibo noticed that there was only a suitcase next to him. It seemed that he really had no attachment to Yueying Island and there were not many things worth taking away.

Qin Zhibo walked up and brought Ma Chengshi to the car he rented. Just as he was about to open the trunk, he let Ma Chengshi put the suitcase in by himself.

Suddenly, Qin Zhibo saw an old man next to him looking at him as if he was a scumbag.

So Qin Zhibo decisively snatched the suitcase from Ma Chengshi's hand and put it in the trunk.

Chapter 121 Kaitou Kidd

In the car, Qin Zhibo asked Ma Cheng about his specific plans after arriving in Tokyo.

"As for me..." Asano-mi tapped his chin with his fingertips, looked up and thought, "I plan to apply for a job as a doctor at a major hospital in Tokyo."

"Let's do this for a few years first. Once I've saved enough money, I'll open my own small hospital..."

Masami still had some visions for the future, which alleviated Qin Zhibo's suspicion that he came to Tokyo to continue his revenge.

but……

"There's something I must explain to you. In fact, your father Aso Keiji's legacy, in addition to the music letter, also includes a key."

"Using my connections, I found the origin of that key. It's the key to the safe deposit box at Tokyo-Yaling Bank."

"The person who handled the safe deposit is your father. The password is your birthday. I've already checked. There's $60 in the safe that your father deposited."

"With this money, you should be able to directly initiate your plan to open a small hospital."

Qin Zhibo held the steering wheel with one hand and took out the key to the safe with the other hand and handed it to Ma Chengshi.

Holding the key in his hand, Ma Chengshi was shocked by this windfall.

After calming down, Ma Chengshi thanked Qin Zhibo softly.

"Thanks……"

Next, Ma Chengshi began to replan his plans for the next few days.

For example, he wanted to change his name from Asai Narumi to Asai Narumi first.

Also, in order to maintain his female identity, he has not dared to take the driver's license test for these years, but now he finally dares to take the test.

There are also addresses of small hospitals, so even if you have enough money, you still have to be selective.

"It would be great if we could be closer to Mr. Tomohiro's detective agency!"

There was a gleam of light in Masashi's eyes. Although he said that he would return to being a man in the future, the action of clasping his hands together was still a bit feminine.

Just when Ma Chengshi chattered on and on and Qin Zhibo thought the topic bank in his brain was about to be cleared, Ma Chengshi brought up a new topic.

"Mr. Tomohiro, you know Kaito Kidd, right?"

"Kaitou Kidd?"

Qin Zhibo thought about it and had some impression in his mind.

Television and newspapers often report news related to Kaito Kid, so after coming to this world, Qin Zhibo couldn't help but want to know about this famous thief.

This thief often appears in public wearing an exaggerated and eye-catching white suit. His targets are all rich people, and most of them are gems.

Before committing theft, a warning letter is usually sent to the victim. As long as the content of the warning letter is deciphered, the specific time and place of the theft can be learned.

It was this "gentlemanly behavior" that was foreshadowed before the theft that earned Kaito Kid the title of "Arsene Lupin of the Heisei Era".

In addition, because he mainly commits thefts at night and uses magic tricks to fool the Japanese police, Kaito Kid is also known as the "Magician of the Moon".

Finally, there is one thing about Kaito Kidd that makes him a "Phantom Thief", and that is that every time he steals something, he returns the stolen items to the police.

Judging from these strange behavior patterns, Qin Zhibo felt that this might be an amateur thief with a strong desire to perform and show off.

The reason why Kidd is an amateur thief is that he always steals just a little bit and never for the purpose of making a profit.

Qin Zhibo has a strong desire to perform and show off because he once accidentally saw some videos of Kaito Kid stealing.

Unlike ordinary thieves, Kaito Kidd likes to stand in high places, often wears a white suit that is exactly opposite to the night color to attract people's attention, and likes to talk to himself as a "ladies alemen".

The entire theft process gives people the feeling of a pleasing magic show.

Similar to Now You See Me.

Of course, Kidd's behavior won him a lot of fans, but it also provided Qin Zhibo with some direction for character analysis.

The fact that he likes to show off suggests that the thief may be younger than most people guess.

Similar to the "Sherlock Holmes of the Heisei era", he has a strong desire to perform.

He likes to "perform" the stealing process with magic, which shows that this thief has a deep pursuit and obsession with magic.

Considering his young age, this kind of influence is likely to come from the family environment in which he grew up. Kaito Kidd may come from a family of magic.

Finally, Kaito Kid was able to return all the priceless gems without greed after stealing them, which shows that he comes from a good family and has plenty of money. He might be the son of a wealthy family.

and so……

"To sum up, Kaito Kidd is probably some wealthy young man from a magic family looking for some fun."

While driving, Qin Zhibo spoke his reasonings like a machine gun, causing Ma Cheng next to him to clap his hands like a little fan.

"Wow! You can deduce so much based on the news alone! As expected of Mr. Tomohiro!"

"But regarding Kaito Kidd's age, Mr. Tomohiro might have miscalculated."

Asami looked up and recalled, "Kaito Kid first appeared in Paris, France 18 years ago. Judging from his age, he should be at least an uncle now."

"Oh? Is this happening?"

Qin Zhibo had not paid attention to this Phantom Thief before, so naturally he didn't know the information about Phantom Thief Kidd from a long time ago.

Anyway, there is no possibility that I will have any intersection with this thief, so why think so much?

……

After returning from the dock, Qin Zhibo arranged for Ma Chengshi to stay in an apartment building near the office.

New place, new life.

Next, Qin Zhibo could only wish him good luck.

After returning the rented Mazda to the car rental company, Qin Zhibo finally returned to the office and lay comfortably in the boss chair.

Qin Zhibo opened the silver suitcase, took out the metal cylinder and looked at it carefully.

After using it last night, all the solution inside has been consumed. Now this thing is waste from the perspective of usage.

However, it is now basically certain that this device was created by the Yellow Monk to kill MI-GO.

If you want it to work again, you must first replenish the special solution inside.

The solution here is to MI-GO what holy water is to vampires.

After finding a place to put the suitcase and the device inside, Qin Zhibo turned on his computer to check whether the Nine Angels Organization had issued any new tasks.

After a period of task gap, the Nine Angels assigned a task to Qin Zhibo again.

[Administrator: Investigating the large-scale power outage that occurred in Tokyo yesterday]

I was staying at Shannisi yesterday, so naturally I didn’t know about the power outage.

but……

Qin: Shouldn't the power company be responsible for the power outage?

[Admin: Hmm—this power outage is not an ordinary one, it’s man-made.]

[Administrator: I'll send you the information, you can take a look first]

Qin Zhibo clicked on the task information sent by the administrator, and the first thing he saw was a white phantom under the moonlight.

Kaitou Kidd!

Chapter 122 Investigating Kidd's Assisters

According to the information provided by the administrator, Qin Zhibo learned that the power outage occurred around midnight yesterday morning.

The power outage area is 5 kilometers in diameter centered on Tokyo Tower.

The power outage will not last more than 10 minutes.

During this process, the power company did not receive any power outage notice in advance, and all power supply facilities were operating normally.

The only abnormal thing was that at midnight yesterday, the treasure of the Continental Dynasty Exhibition, the Seal of the Emperor of the End of the World, which was displayed in the building next to Tokyo Tower, was being stolen by Kaito Kidd.

When Kaito Kidd succeeded in stealing the seal and was escaping towards Tokyo Tower using a steel cable, a large-scale power outage suddenly occurred around Tokyo Tower.

The darkness of the vision prevented the police from continuing their pursuit, and Kaito Kidd escaped from the police once again.

Qin: So the target of this mission is actually Kaito Kidd?

[Administrator: Not entirely. Your main task is to investigate a mysterious accomplice of Kaito Kidd.]

The administrator sent the second piece of information. Qin Zhibo clicked it and saw that it contained a video.

The following is the video content:

"Officer Nakamori, all personnel are deployed!"

"Listen carefully! Don't shoot, capture him alive!"

In the neat corridor of the building, a police officer who looks very similar to Kogoro Mouri is assigning tasks to his subordinates.

After the arrangement was completed, a group of blue-clad policemen quickly ran away, leaving only Officer Nakamori who took out a white card from his pocket.

He stared at the card indignantly and said angrily, "Damned Kaito Kidd, I will definitely arrest you today!"
