Dressed like a gentleman attending a ball.

A slender and tall figure, a long white cloak, and a dress and hat that are as distinct as the night.

The monocle was worn on the side of his right eye, and there was a faint reflection, making it difficult to see his face clearly.

However, is he really a Phantom Thief who has been active for more than ten years?

Age 30? 20? No...should be younger.

A drop of cold sweat ran down Conan's temples. As a detective, his instinct told him that the guy in front of him was definitely not an ordinary thief.

There seems to be a familiar feeling...

etc!

Why did he say "again" just now? Could it be that he was really someone he had met before...

Kuroba Kaito noticed Conan's gaze, then bent down slightly, looking at the little guy, and said with a confident smile:

"You actually solved my secret code. Who are you?"

"I..."

"Just a little devil who likes to seek the truth and calls himself a detective."

The two people on the rooftop turned to look at the stairs.

A drone slowly drove out, and what came out from the loudspeaker was Ye Gengyi's voice.

More...one more brother?!

"Doctor is worried that you will face this vicious thief alone. Let me take a look..."

Kuroba Kaito: "..."

Conan: "..."

So...are you human?

I sent a drone here, really just to take a look...

By the way, if he was really killed by some "evil" monster thief, your operation can save the police time in collecting evidence...

"I can't help it. There is a mustachioed police officer down there who is eyeing the entrance of the Aipado Hotel. I don't want to be misunderstood as a phantom thief or an accomplice of the phantom thief."

Ye Gengyi seemed to be explaining to Conan, but in fact he reminded Kuroba Kaito that they were not the only ones eyeing this place.

Really... It seems that someone in the police also cracked the code.

Conan quietly took a few steps back and took the opportunity to light the fireworks that had been prepared.

The short-term beauty is fleeting, but in this dark night sky, it is particularly eye-catching.

"It seems like you are well prepared."

Kuroba Kaito still had the same polite attitude, seemingly not caring about the approaching helicopter in the sky.

"What should I do, big brother..." Conan put on an innocent look, "Is it really okay to stay here?"

"Edogawa Conan, you are indeed no ordinary brat." Kuroba Kaito said, taking a deep look at the drone over there.

Maybe it was not Kogoro Mori that Brother Gengyi was wary of last time, but the little detective in front of him...

"What are you going to do?" Conan quietly prepared the tranquilizer gun.

At this point, he believed that if Kaitou Kidd wanted to escape, he had to leave here quickly before the police's siege network was formed.

But in that case, he can directly take down the opponent at the moment when he panics!

"Little devil, your fireworks look mediocre..." Kuroba Kaito turned off the signal jammer and calmly took out the walkie-talkie: "Let me help you..."

"Ahem... I'm Chamu! Found Kaito Kidd on the roof of Cupgo Hotel! Call in all the vehicles on duty near Cupgo Hotel! Mobilize all the helicopters in the sky above Rice Blossom City and rush to the scene to arrest Kaito Kidd!"

What...what...

Conan looked shocked, what on earth was he going to do?

In just one minute, the phantom thief in front of him successfully imitated the voices of the two police commanders who were directing this operation without using a voice changer...

What is his purpose in gathering these policemen here...

Conan couldn't guess what the other person was thinking at all. He didn't even understand whether the Phantom Thief who made such a move was a genius or a madman...

Over the intercom, the commander's furious roars were heard one after another, but when the first helicopter came to confirm that the message was correct.

The place below the Aidedo Hotel was instantly surrounded by the police who arrived!

Above the rooftop, the wind pressure caused by several propellers completely blocked the possibility of the hang glider taking off.

Even Ye Gengyi's drone had to temporarily land on the ground to avoid being blown away.

"Are you satisfied?" Kuroba Kaito put his hands into his pockets, "Little detective, and that old man who refuses to show up..."

The searchlight on the helicopter focused on him, shining with a white halo, turning the place into an open-air stage.

"Kaitou Kidd, don't move!"

"Officer Zhongmori, you still arrived so early."

After seeing the only exit on the rooftop being surrounded by police, Kuroba Kaito still didn't show the slightest hint of panic.

Nakamori Ginzo held the revolver: "Stop talking nonsense! Just give up the pearl and capture it without a fight, you have no way to escape!"

"Haha...I'm just trying you tonight, I have no intention of stealing."

"What?"

"Isn't it written at the beginning of the notice...Happy April Fool's Day~"

Kuroba Kaito finished speaking.

The cloak fluttering in the wind instantly turned into a glider, and a flash bomb slid down the cuff and landed at his feet.

"Damn you, don't be so wildly imaginative, the hang glider can't fly at all in this situation!"

Conan blocked the bright light with his hands, trying to prevent someone from committing suicide.

"Haha, the little devil knows a lot... However, making the impossible possible is the work created by the artist known as the Phantom Thief, and the detective can only follow his footsteps and is nothing more than a critic.

"

"You're talking nonsense...what..."

The light and dust dissipated, and before Conan could refute, the Phantom Thief in front of him seemed to have never appeared before and completely disappeared from everyone's sight.

A card with a red rose on it falls:

[On April 19th, I will go to the Queen Elizabeth departing from Yokohama and take away the real Dark Star - Phantom Thief Kidd. 】

"Damn it!" Officer Zhongsen picked up the warning letter and commanded through the intercom with an ugly expression: "Hurry up and notify the police cars and helicopters below, and use radar to track it. Even if you use a glider, you can't fly far so fast!"

A report came quickly over the intercom:

"Report to the police officer, except for our four helicopters, there are no other flying objects in the sky nearby..."

How can it be...

Conan couldn't believe his ears.

Just when everyone was shocked, a certain phantom thief in police uniform had quietly slipped into the crowd of the search team.

It seems that it is not difficult for him to cross-dress and change again.

In this way, Kuroba Kaito successfully escaped from the Aido Hotel, which was full of policemen, until he turned around and walked into an alley.

"Bah bang bang...it's really exciting..."
