    Chapter 24 Chapter 24 Phantom Thief

    Valentine’s Day hasn’t even arrived yet, but Kaitou Kid’s teaser letter came first, setting off a trend in Tokyo.

    The entire atmosphere in Tokyo seemed to be excited, and Kaitou Kid’s limelight instantly overshadowed the upcoming Valentine’s Day.

    Searching the second class was like a shot of blood. Every time Mingzhi Jianwu passed by, he could feel their lusty and destructive momentum.

    “This is the first time I have felt such a lively atmosphere after receiving a crime notice.” Mingzhi Kenwu said with great interest.

    The appearance of Kaitou Kidd is like a carnival unique to Tokyo, with people excitedly talking about the deeds of this Kaitou in the streets.

    Suzuki Sonoko found out that Akechi Kengo didn’t know much about Kaito Kidd, so she told him the wonderful past of Kaito Kidd vividly and in high spirits.

    Ever since he discovered the existence of Tohru Amuro, Akechi Kengo has come to visit the business frequently. Of course, the bigger reason is because the meals at Café Poirot suit his taste.

    Akechi Kenwu occasionally feels that the taste of certain meals is a bit similar to Zhufu Gaoming’s.

    Because they often come and go, Akechi Kengo and the Mouri Kogoro family upstairs have met several times, and the two sides have gradually become familiar with each other.He met Mouri Kogoro less often, but he would meet Mouri Ran, Edogawa Conan and their classmates after school in the afternoon and on the 6th.

    Today Kengo Akechi met Sonoko Suzuki, a senior Kidd fan, at the Poirot Cafe.

    The eldest daughter of the Suzuki family was shocked when she saw Akechi’s enlightenment. She first lamented to Mao Lilan that there was such a handsome guy in the Metropolitan Police Department!

    Akechi Kengo was accustomed to Suzuki Sonoko’s attitude, and the other party was shocked in a measured way, and then began to talk about the preview letter of Kaito Kidd.

    Akechi Kengo was immediately interested in Suzuki Sonoko’s attitude towards Kaitou Kidd.

    Suzuki Sonoko is also very willing to “preach” to Lord Kidd. When she talks about it, she speaks with great emotion and her admiration is beyond words.

    Akechi Kengo was holding black tea and looked at Suzuki Sonoko curiously: “I remember that Kaitou Kidd and Mr. Suzuki had many confrontations.”

    Suzuki Sonoko blurted out: “Yes, uncle has been looking for a gem that can attract Kidd-sama, but he didn’t expect that someone else would beat him to it this time!”

    Her expression was very sad, and she didn’t think there was anything wrong with her words.

    People around him were either helpless or dumbfounded, and no one thought there was anything wrong with what Suzuki Sonoko said.

    Mao Lilan said with emotion: “Uncle is still so persistent in Kidd!”

    “Hmph!” Sera Masumi snorted coldly, obviously resenting Kaitou Kid, “That bastard thief, he ran faster last time!”

    Suzuki Sonoko laughed dryly: “Kid-sama went too far, but it was Sera who entered the men’s room first.”

    Masumi Sera stretched out a finger and scratched her cheek: “Because there are too many people in the women’s restroom. Anyway, the police had blocked the floor at that time, and there was no one in the men’s restroom. Who knew Kidd would ambush inside!”

    Edogawa Conan said: “The reason why there are so many people in the women’s restroom is because there are too many people coming to see Kidd. In the final analysis, it’s his own fault!”

    “You little brat!” Suzuki Sonoko angrily held Edogawa Conan down and rubbed his hair, “I think you are jealous of Kidd-sama’s popularity!”

    “Who would be jealous of him?!” Edogawa Conan struggled under Suzuki Sonoko, “Sister Xiaolan, save me!”

    Mao Lilan quickly reached out to save Edogawa Conan: “Sono…”

    Sera Masumi also helped: “Conan is Kidd’s nemesis, there is no need to be jealous of Kidd!”

    Azusa Enomoto from Poirot Cafe is also a fan of Kaitou Kidd and actively participated in the conversation: “Sonoko, can you take a photo of Kidd-sama’s notice letter for me? I want to use it as a lucky charm.”

    “Does Kidd’s notice letter still have this effect?” Kengo Akechi asked with interest. The reputation of this Phantom Thief seems to be a bit too good, and using the token as a talisman means too much.

    “Yeah!” Azusa Enomoto nodded enthusiastically and said angrily, “Unfortunately, the police officer stopped me last time when I wanted to take a photo. If I took the photo and put it in the store, it would definitely be very popular with customers, right, Mr. Amuro?”

    “Yes.” Toru Amuro said with a smile, “Kid has always been very popular.”

    “The last time we arrested Kidd-sama, wasn’t Mr. Amuro also present?” Suzuki Sonoko asked, “Didn’t you take any pictures?”

    “Oh? Has Amuro-kun ever faced off against Kid?” Kengo Akechi moved his interested eyes to Toru Amuro.

    ——

    “By the way, Professor,” Kengo Akechi asked casually before leaving Professor Takahashi, “The name of Mr. Fukitani is…”

    “Rei, Rei Fangtani.” Professor Takahashi said helplessly and sadly, “I don’t know where he is now. With his ability, he should at least be in the police department now.”

    ——

    Akechi Kengo looked at Toru Amuro and thought to himself that if he invited Professor Takahashi to come here for afternoon tea, it would be an interesting scene.

    Gao Ming must have known that Fang Gu Ling now had identity restrictions, so he changed his name when he told him.

    I graduated from the University of Tokyo Law School and then entered the police academy. Now I changed my name and worked as a waiter in a cafe. It was obvious that I was working as an undercover agent.

    Metropolitan Police Department Public Security Department or National Police Department Public Security Department?Akechi Kenwu thought, Zhufu Jingguang and Fangtani Rei were friends back then. What was the probability that they would enter the same department after graduating from the police academy?

    Now that Jiang Gu Ling is still undercover, what is the probability that he and Zhu Fu Jingguang are undercover at the same time?No one would send a pair of friends to go undercover at the same time, right?So the two people should be in different departments, but they just happened to be sent undercover by two different bosses.

    Toru Amuro smiled at Kengo Akechi and said modestly: “It’s not really a match, I’m just going to see the world.” He thought of the confrontation on the top of the tower, and there was a smile in his purple-gray eyes. He said jokingly, “As a detective, why wouldn’t you be interested in Kaitou Kid?”

    Kengo Akechi pushed up his glasses and looked at Toru Amuro thoughtfully.

    If his conjecture is correct, is it okay for you, a police officer, to be so friendly to thieves?

    Akechi Kengo smiled and said: “So it seems that this Phantom Thief is more like a star than a criminal, right?”

    Suzuki Sonoko said passionately: “Kidd-sama is the best magician!”

    “Magician…” Akechi Kenwu didn’t know what to think of, his eyes were cold and sharp, “That is indeed a difficult target.”

    Suzuki Sonoko didn’t hear the coldness in Akechi Kengo’s words, and nodded vigorously: “Yes, yes! Kidd-sama is super powerful! And Kidd-sama never hurts anyone. He will return gems soon after he takes them. He has also saved us many times. He is a very good person!”

    Akechi Kenwu was taken aback for a moment and said in agreement: “That is indeed very novel.”

    Edogawa Conan saw Akechi Kengo’s emotional change at that moment, and asked curiously: “Has Mr. Akechi met other magicians before?”

    Mingzhi Jianwu said calmly: “I have never seen a magician who does not hurt people, but I have caught a magician who kills people without blinking.”

    Suzuki Sonoko shouted: “Who is ruining the reputation of magicians?!”

    “Garden!”

    “Yuanzi, calm down.”

    Sera Masumi and Mao Lilan quickly pulled their friends back to their seats and sat down.Suzuki Sonoko looked embarrassed and looked apologetic towards the guests around her.

    “Ahem! Hahahaha!” Akechi Kengo, who was drinking black tea, choked at first when he heard Suzuki Sonoko’s words. Fortunately, everyone’s attention was attracted by Suzuki Sonoko, but when he laughed heartily later, he attracted everyone’s attention.

    “Mr. Wise?” Everyone looked at him in confusion.

    “It’s nothing.” Akechi Kenwu had a cheerful smile on his face, “I just thought about what his reaction would be if he heard these words.”

    Edogawa Conan found it a bit funny. He didn’t expect that Section Chief Akechi still had such a childlike innocence: “That person will definitely not be able to hear it in prison now.”

    Mingzhi Jianyu picked up the black tea cup and took a sip, and said calmly and calmly: “No, he escaped from prison again some time ago.”

    “Again?!” This time it was the others’ turn to be shocked.

    “How many times has this happened?” Mingzhi Jianyu said calmly, “We still have to find a way to promote the implementation of the death penalty.”

    A flash of understanding quickly flashed in Toru Amuro’s eyes, and he objectively commented: “This goal is difficult to achieve.”

    Mingzhi Jianwu said: “You can’t just do it just because it’s difficult.”
