So far, this is the most special gem he has ever seen.

All previous gems, even Pandora, the Stone of Life, will reflect brilliant brilliance when illuminated by light.

This is the characteristic of gemstones, and it is also the reason why people pursue them crazily.

But this gemstone is completely different. It is extremely pure black, and even if the brightest light hits it, it will not reflect any light.

The oval diamond is about 4 inches in size and has 38 irregular facets. Each facet is pure and smooth black, with no impurities visible.

Kaitou Kid stared at the "black crow in the night" at close range, and was unconsciously attracted by its beauty.

He gradually raised his hand, and his gloved palm gradually came closer to the black diamond that seemed to possess magic.

It's so beautiful...

You want to keep it as your own, hide it somewhere, and then enjoy it alone...

Kaitou Kid's eyes widened as he had such a thought in his mind.

When that hand was about to touch the metal box holding the gem, Kaito Kid's eyes suddenly froze, as if he thought of something, he quickly stopped his hand.

call……

It was so dangerous, I almost did it.

Kaitou Kidd remembered that it was not yet 12:00 midnight. To steal something before the predicted time was called a lack of martial ethics and a sneak attack.

If you say you steal at 12 o'clock at midnight, you will steal at 12 o'clock.

One minute earlier, one minute later, it doesn't say 12 o'clock midnight.

Kaitou Kidd stopped and looked around, only to find that there was no one in the vault except himself.

Huh? Haven’t you come yet?

According to Kuroba Chikage, the people responsible for protecting the gems today do not know each other's identities and keep them secret, but they shouldn't come so slowly, right?

Kaitou Kidd looked down at the women's watch on his wrist, and heard the sound of metal shafts rubbing against his back.

not good!

Kaitou Kidd was immediately alert, turned around and was about to run out the door, but the vault door was closed first, tightly.

Fell into a trap!

Kaitou Kidd gritted his teeth and realized that he had fallen into a trap set by the casino.

They already knew that they were disguised as Kuroba Chikage!

But why is this?

How can people in the casino be sure that they will be disguised as Kuroba Chikage? And not others...

The thoughts in Kaitou Kidd's mind were racing.

But no matter how he speculated, he never expected that his old rival was standing in the casino security control center at this time.

…

At the same time, the casino security control center.

A group of people were standing on the checkered floor tiles, watching the miserable appearance of "Black Feather Qianying" in the vault.

"It seems that this is the Kaitou Kidd. I guessed it right..."

A man with a thick beard, a brown top hat, and a brown trench coat was looking at the screen in front of him proudly, his beard trembling with excitement.

Behind him, there were some boys in brown trench coats.

If Kaito Kidd were here, he would recognize these people as members of the Beast Brotherhood, led by Snake.

But how could someone from the Beast Brotherhood appear in the casino's control center openly?

Snake's eyes were fixed on the screen, and the smile at the corner of his mouth gradually became ferocious.

"Kaito Kid is the former genius magician Kuroba Toichi. If he wants to announce that he has stolen this gem, he will definitely use his wife's connections..."

"Hey, I've expected this a long time ago."

Snake laughed ferociously, took out the pistol from his waist, and called his younger brother to go forward.

"Young ones! It's time to catch Kidd!"

"That adult said, no one will be left alive!"

Just as Snake and his younger brothers were about to rush out of the control room, a voice stopped them.

"etc."

Snake stopped and turned to the other man in the control room.

This man is extremely muscular, and even an oversized suit cannot completely conceal his exaggerated muscle lines.

"Mr. Lloyd? Is there anything else?"

"If we wait any longer and the Phantom Thief escapes through the ventilation duct, I'm afraid that adult will be unhappy..."

Even Snake, who always acted like a big brother, seemed much more docile in front of this man named Lloyd, and even deliberately used "that adult" from the Beast Brotherhood to suppress him.

Just because he is the boss behind the Starry Sky Casino and the leader of the Starry Sky Wisdom Cult, Lloyd Blake.

"Although I agreed to the Baron's cooperation in capturing Kaitou Kidd, it does not mean that I need to obey your orders..."

"Besides, do you think the human wave tactic will be useful to Kidd?"

Snake was stunned for a moment, "But if we don't rush in, how can we catch him?"

"snort……"

Lloyd sneered and ordered: "Turn off the lights."

When the staff in front heard the order, they put their hands on the power control button and pressed it. The vault's monitoring screen immediately went dark.

When Snake saw this, he immediately became anxious.

"Hey! If you turn off the light, we can't see what's going on inside!"

"In case he really comes from the ventilation..."

Snake was shouting, but Lloyd calmly raised a finger and made a hissing gesture.

"Shh-"

"Just watch quietly..."

"After all, this is not something you see often... a miracle!"

…

In the vault, Kaito Kidd is looking for a way out.

Soon, the ventilation ducts on the pure white ceiling came into view.

"hey-hey……"

Kaitou Kid chuckled. This trick of escaping through the ventilation ducts has been tried and tested many times.

Even if the ventilation ducts here are welded in advance, the other party will send people in to arrest him sooner or later.

As long as someone dares to come in and catch him, he will be confident to use his powerful disguise technique to fool him. He has used this trick to fool Officer Zhongmori and his colleagues countless times.

Hehe, the black crow in the night, I will accept it first~

When passing by the counter, Kaitou Kidd grabbed the black diamond in the box.
