Chapter 301: Almost Got Trapped Again
When Suzuki Sonoko put Kid in a sack, Conan also successfully figured out Kid's air walking technique and how he planned to steal the gems this time.
Just as he was about to take action, he saw Yuya sitting there leisurely eating tea and snacks. He suddenly thought of something and couldn't help asking, "If I'm not mistaken, Kidd is being squatted by Sonoko again, right?"
With the previous experience in mind, Conan suddenly felt that Kaito Kid was not that powerful. He was ambushed again and again, and his dignity had been completely lost, okay?
Youya raised an eyebrow: "Have you figured it out?"
Conan sat down with his eyes drooping, propping up his chin weakly: "Why can you always crack Kid's code so quickly? This time too, you weren't there at all, right?"
Yuya said, "I watched the news."
Conan was even more shocked: "No, you saw through Kid's tactics just by watching the news?"
Yuya smiled, ruffled Conan's hair into a mess, and then said: "Didn't I tell you that you made a preconceived mistake. From the beginning you thought Kidd was hanging in the air, because Kidd has always committed crimes alone and has never been approved, so you naturally think that those helicopters are driven by Uncle Jirokichi's men."
"This means that even if you are on top of the building, you can't see the wire rope. Besides, the wire rope is very thin to begin with, so you can't see it unless you look carefully."
Conan thought about his own judgment and realized that it was just as Yuya said. Before he reminded him, he had never doubted whether there would be any problems with the helicopters.
Yuya shrugged his shoulders. "A thief is different from a detective. It is difficult for him to act without an accomplice, whether it is preparing props or retreating afterwards. After all, a hang glider is not a flying machine, and he will have to land at some point. If he relies on himself alone, it will be very laborious and time-consuming. Besides, thieves are very rich, so it is easy for them to find someone to cooperate with them."
"It's different for detectives. We only need to use our own reasoning ability to solve the case. As for the people who assist us... Aren't the police on the scene our best assistants? Is there anyone more professional than them?"
"Do you know Lupin?" Yuya suddenly asked.
Conan was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said, "Yes, I know. He is a very famous international thief."
Yuya said, "Then you should know that Lupin doesn't always act alone."
Conan suddenly showed a look of realization, and he couldn't help asking, "So this time, what trap did you set for Kid?"
Yuya smiled and said, "What color sack do you like?"
Conan blinked his eyes, looking confused: "Huh?"
···
On the other side, Kidd successfully escaped from the museum. This time he did not use a hang glider to escape, but disguised himself as an ordinary passerby and blended into the crowd.
"Chicken-chan, did you get away?" Kidd contacted his assistant, Terai Kōnosuke, via the radio.
"Yes, Master."
Terai Huang Zhisuke looked around and confirmed that no one was following him, then responded.
However, what he didn't notice was that not far behind him, a little black cat was hiding in the shadows, staring at him motionlessly.
Kidd breathed a sigh of relief and said quickly, "That's great, we'll meet at XXX."
Terai Huang Zhisuke showed a puzzled expression on his face: "Master, what happened to you? This seems to be different from our plan?"
According to Kidd's original plan, he should have used Suzuki Jirokichi's identity and pretended to transfer the Blue Miracle, but in fact he was going to run away with the gem directly.
The two do not need to meet up directly.
"Stop talking," Kaito Kidd kept shuttling among the crowd, "Anyway, hurry up. The helicopter number can only confuse people and won't delay them for long."
Kidd couldn't say anything because his plan was seen through by the detective named Kamiya Yuya, and this time he was even put into a sack.
Although Terai Huang Zhisuke is the person he trusts most besides his parents, he cannot tell him such an embarrassing thing!
"Okay, I understand, young master." Terai Huang Zhisuke did not ask any further questions and immediately went to the meeting place according to Kidd's instructions.
Soon, the two met in a dim alley.
Kidd took off his conspicuous white suit and changed into casual clothes. Walking among the crowd, apart from his appearance that would attract a second glance, there was nothing special about him.
But when he saw Kidd like this, a hint of suspicion flashed across Terai Huangzhisuke's face.
He was very familiar with this young master and could tell at first glance that he looked a little embarrassed. No, it was more like he was frightened by something than embarrassed.
"Master, are you okay?" he asked quickly.
Kidd was shocked, thinking to himself, could it be that Chicken Sauce saw something? He put on his usual smug smile and said, "How is that possible? Look, I got the blue miracle successfully."
"Well, even though this isn't the gem I'm looking for, they've issued a challenge, so I have to come anyway."
Seeing the gem, Terai Huang Zhisuke breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that what just happened was just an illusion. The young master was still the same young master, Kaito Kid who inherited the master's identity.
Kidd tossed the gem up and down, rubbed his stomach and said, "Okay, let's go back. I'm starving."
This trip tonight had consumed a lot of his energy, and his stomach was already growling.
"Okay, young master, the car is here." Terai Huang Zhisuke said hurriedly.
Just as the two were about to leave, a young man suddenly walked into the alley. He was a little surprised to see Kid and Terai Huangzhisuke, and subconsciously took a step back.
However, after seeing clearly that the two people were a young man and an old man, he felt relieved, patted his chest and continued walking forward.
Kidd glanced at the man, didn't feel anything was wrong, and continued walking with Terai Huangzhisuke.
When the three of them passed each other, Kidd subconsciously glanced at the man, and that man happened to look over at him.
Kidd's pupils shrank slightly. He sensed a flash of malice in the other's eyes. He subconsciously dodged to the side and pulled Terai Kōnosuke with him.
With a "swish" sound, a pink light flashed by.
Kidd took a closer look and the corners of his mouth twitched wildly - he was very familiar with that thing, a pink sack, exactly the same as the one that had just trapped him!
"Young Master?" Terai Huang Zhisuke looked at the man in surprise, then looked at his own young master.
What's wrong with this person? Why did he suddenly take out a sack to trap someone? And it's pink?
Kidd had no time to explain, so he could only shout "Hurry up and run!", then took out a smoke bomb and threw it on the ground. Unexpectedly, he brought the gem out when he took out the smoke bomb.
It fell to the ground with a clatter.
Then there was a bang, and thick smoke enveloped the alley in the blink of an eye.
Kidd put on a gas mask with a wave of his hand, and put one on Jijiang as well. He didn't bother to pick up the gems, and the two of them quickly left the alley in the smoke.
"Young Master, who is that person? How..." Terai Huang Zhisuke's head is full of question marks.
"Don't ask anymore, just leave." Kidd was really scared of Suzuki Sonoko. He didn't want to explain at all. He just wanted to leave here quickly.
He swore that he would never steal the Suzuki family's gems again!
At least he would never go when Suzuki Sonoko was present!
