I'm in Conan, but I'm in Ace Attorney

"Why do you look so indifferent? Why don't you go to the Rice Flower Museum to see it for yourself?"

He shook his head and said casually to Yuan Guang.

"It's just a belated April Fools' Day event. Look at what the first sentence of the invitation says."

...A belated April Fools' Day event?

Nanatsuki Koshimizu was a little confused and she raised the newspaper in her hand.

【The Belated Shadow of Fools】

When the Moon Separates Them

[I will turn into a dark star]

【Ride the waves】【Come on】

【Kaito Kidd】

The first sentence is about the belated shadow of a fool.

Is this thing a literal, belated April Fools' Day event?

This shouldn’t be the case. Could it be that Kaito Kidd is really just here to cause trouble?

Wouldn't that make it seem like all these famous detectives who have been doing so much research have become clowns?

"...You don't believe it? Then let's go ask him directly."

The hedgehog head said casually.

—————May 14, 5:30 p.m.——————

—————Near the Kuroba Residence in the Ekoda area of ​​Tokyo——————

Staring at the Kuroba residence not far away, Nanatsuki Koshimizu's eyes were even more suspicious.

Xiang Yuan said that the real identity of Kaito Kid is a high school student named Kuroba Kaito.

However, Kaito Kidd had already committed theft ten years ago.

Now he should be a middle-aged man over 40.

How is it possible that he is still in high school... It's impossible that he has regained his youth... ?

That kind of thing should not exist, it's not scientific at all.

"Xiang Yuan, are you sure that Kaito Kidd is Kuroba Kaito?"

"And why are you wearing that outfit again?"

The young detective stared at the hedgehog-haired lawyer next to her.

No, to be precise, he is not a hedgehog-headed lawyer now.

And the black magician Virgil.

"Give him a surprise. If you walk too much at night, you'll always run into ghosts."

"I'm too lazy to play magician games with him, so I'll just scare him this time."

Xiang Yuanguang said as a matter of course.

"Just make him give up the idea of ​​stealing the Black Star."

"There is no such thing as a thief who can thieves for a thousand days."

(It is impossible to dissuade a thief from stealing.)

(Wait, Xiangyuan doesn’t mean to “eliminate” it in a physical sense, right…?)

I think it would be better to call the nearby hospital in advance.

After all, judging from the hedgehog's physical fitness, two punches would probably be enough to open a water and land dojo.

Tick, tick, tick.

Footsteps were heard, but they were too far away and Nanatsuki Koshimizu could not hear them at all.

But Xiang Yuanguang, who had superior physical fitness, heard it clearly.

Because, at the corner of the deserted intersection, a familiar voice was saying goodbye.

This is Kudo Shinichi's voice, just slightly changed.

Needless to say, it is most likely Kuroba Kaito, and the one talking to Kuroba Kaito is Nakamori Aoko.

Swish.

Xiang Yuanguang had a few more playing cards in his hand at some point.

Quietly waiting for Kuroba Kaito to notice something strange at the door.

Tick, tick, tick.

The footsteps were getting closer and closer.

The two watched as Kuroba Kaito arrived at the door of his house and picked up the card that fell after the door was opened with some surprise.

The next moment, Xiang Yuanguang's figure disappeared from the spot.

(Kaito Kidd, let me show you the magic of high-speed movement.)

(Show me how you can crack this magic trick!)

Kuroba Kaito was looking down at the contents of the card when he heard the sound of wind coming from behind him.

As soon as he turned around, his poker face could no longer hold and his expression changed drastically.

I guess, this is your great magic trick?

Where is the magic???

3/5

Chapter 253 How is this not magic?

Today is an unhappy day for Kuroba Kaito.

The reason was simple. He was performing magic tricks to amuse Qingzi at school.

He didn't get the right balance at once, and as a result, Qingzi got so angry that he picked up the mop and started stabbing.

In the end, the balloon he brought burst and he was forced to stay behind to clean up.

"Well, you asked for it today. Don't do it again next time, idiot."

"Haha, I'll definitely do it next time, definitely do it next time."

Say goodbye to his childhood sweetheart, Aoko Nakamori.

Kuroba Kaito turned to think about his other identity - Kaito Kidd.

A notice was sent out today, saying that the Black Star will be stolen tomorrow, but it’s just a prank.

It's just a test of the security strength of the police and the Suzuki Group this time.

If you really want to steal the Black Star, you have to wait for the memorial meeting on May 20th.

After all, the dark star in the Rice Flower Museum is fake.

(The Suzuki family would definitely not leave such precious black pearls lying around.)

(It is most likely in the body of a member of the Suzuki family...)

The ordinary high school student walked and thought.

If theft is committed on a cruise ship, it should normally be done by water.

But he stayed away from water routes, so he decided to take a risk and deploy the hang glider.

It is said that the famous detective Kogoro Mori who went to Shikoku also returned to Tokyo three days ago to work on this matter.

Although I don't know how strong Maori Kogoro is, but...

The Phantom Thief steals treasures in a spectacular way and is a creative artist.

The detective will only follow the thief and nitpick, and is just a critic.

Tick, tick, tick.

Walking all the way to the door of his house, Kuroba Kaito took out the key and wanted to open the door out of habit.

Suddenly he frowned, realizing that something seemed to be wrong.

Although the door lock had not been tampered with, a card was stuck in the crack of the door.

(Hmm, a black card? Who did that? It shouldn’t be a prank by Grandpa Terai.)

(Could it be that the mysterious black organization has found its way here?)

Kuroba Kaito frowned.

One of the reasons why he transformed into Kaito Kid was to lure this organization out.

However, before Kuroba Kaito could examine it further, the card fell off by itself.

It fell to the ground and he subconsciously half squatted down to check the contents.

There was something incomprehensible written on this black card.

[Kaito Kidd, I heard that you claim to be able to crack all magic]

[As a black magician, I would like to ask you a question or two]

[Look behind you, please crack the magic trick I am using now]

[The name of this magic is——————High-speed movement]

Great magic high speed movement?

Kuroba Kaito blinked.

What is this? Who is the black magician?

What do you mean by look behind me...?

call out.

The sound of wind suddenly came from behind.

He subconsciously turned his head away, and his poker face was instantly broken.

What is this thing? Why does it move with an afterimage?

This, this is the magic of high-speed movement?

Kuroba Kaito's expression changed drastically, and with a turn of his hand, the door opened instantly.

Before the black afterimage approached, he had already entered the entrance hall.

Just as I was about to close the door, I saw a hand pressing on the edge of the door.

"Here's Johnny!"

The face with the half-covered mask was leaning against the crack of the door.

He even gave a not-so-friendly smile.

(What kind of magician is this? Is this magic?)

(This doesn’t seem to be magic, it’s just that his physical fitness is too strong???)

He only needed to take a quick glance to confirm that Xiang Yuanguang did not have any magic props at all.

It’s impossible that the opponent’s shoes have some kind of electric shock that increases speed.

Without thinking, Kuroba Kaito ran straight to the window on the other side.

(You can’t enter the secret door now, otherwise all of Kaito Kidd’s equipment will be exposed.)

(As long as I can get to the shopping street... he will never be able to find me.)

(I will contact Grandpa Terai later to find out the origins of this black magician.)
