Chapter 217: The duo who persevere in pursuit of men

PreviousBack to directoryNext
On the motorcycle, Hattori Heiji held the handlebar tightly and drove forward at high speed in the congested traffic.

In the back seat, Conan was carrying a solar skateboard with his hands around Hattori Heiji's waist, but he was thinking about what just happened.

According to the content in the notice letter, Qin Zhibo deduced that the time and place was Tongtenkaku Tower at 7:20. This code interpretation was very reasonable.

Hattori Heiji's interpretation is to use fireworks to light up Osaka Castle to achieve a "luminous sky pavilion".

This idea seems to be correct.

But the key lies in the timing of the fireworks...

The fireworks are set off at 7:15 on time. If Hattori Heiji's interpretation is to be followed, shouldn't they be set off at 7:20?

Setting off fireworks 5 minutes in advance is like giving the police time to respond...

And why do power outages occur?

It would be understandable if a power outage was caused while setting off fireworks, because then the whole of Osaka would be plunged into darkness, and only Osaka Castle under the light of the fireworks would be the only "luminous" building.

However, the power outage caused by Kaitou Kidd happened after the fireworks were set off, and the two times were deliberately staggered.

In other words, his purpose of creating a blackout is not to create a "glowing sky castle", but...

Seeing a medical center on the roadside that had restored power, Conan had an idea.

Click!

A thunderbolt flashed in his mind, and Conan finally understood everything.

"Hattori! We all thought wrong!"

"Tongtenkaku is where Kidd really wants to land!"

"Kaitou Kidd set off fireworks in Osaka Castle just to lure the police away from Tsutenkaku, so he allowed five minutes to wait for the police to withdraw."

"There is also a reason for the power outage. I also..."

Conan, with an excited expression, gave a long list of his reasoning, but found that Hattori Heiji in front of him was still driving the motorcycle forward without any thought, without any reaction or reply to him.

It turned out that both Hattori Heiji and Conan were wearing safety helmets on their heads. The weakening of one person's voice and the weakening of the other person's hearing caused Hattori Heiji not to hear Conan's words.

There was no other way. Conan pinched the tender meat on Hattori Heiji's belly with his fingers. Hattori Heiji was in pain before he noticed someone talking behind him.

Repeating the previous reasoning in the simplest terms, Hattori Heiji immediately made a beautiful flick at a street intersection with a relatively wide road surface, and changed direction towards Tsutenkaku Tower.

After turning the car around, Conan continued to reason: "The reason why Kaito Kidd caused a power outage in Osaka was to observe the power outage recovery speed of various buildings."

"In addition to hospitals and hotels, Officer Nakamori will definitely install generators where the 'Memory Egg' is hidden, so power will be restored there."

"The height of Tsutenkaku is the most suitable location for observation, so that Kaitou Kidd can know the hiding place of the 'Memory Egg'!" Hattori Heiji answered the last sentence.

"Um!"

Conan nodded in approval, and at the same time sighed inwardly at Kaitou Kid's cunning.

At this moment, Conan's butt suddenly left the seat and he felt the motorcycle under his crotch take off unscientifically.

Looking around, it turned out that Hattori Heiji rode his motorcycle directly onto the sidewalk in order to avoid the crowded motorcycle lane.

beep beep beep——

Hattori Heiji was honking his horn, tightening the accelerator on his right hand, and kept accelerating.

"Hattori! This is too dangerous!"

Conan quickly tried to dissuade him, but Hattori Heiji, whose blood in his body was rapidly heating up, couldn't care anymore.

"If we don't rush back soon, we will be completely fooled by that thief!"

"But it's too easy to cause an accident!"

Conan was still worried that something might happen, but Hattori Heiji replied decisively: "Don't worry about my motorcycle skills!"

Just like that, a passionate young man rode a motorcycle and slid out of a strange light on the dark sidewalk.

This strange light can be called a "will-o'-the-wisp".

...

At the expense of Hattori Heiji's violation of traffic regulations, the two high school detectives finally rushed back to Tsutenkaku in advance, just in time to see Kaito Kid's white hang glider take off from the roof of Tsutenkaku and fly into the distance.

"Kid's there!"

"Damn it! Chase me!"

Hattori Heiji tightened the accelerator again and took Conan with him to catch up with Kidd.

"He should have discovered the location of the treasure!"

"If you don't rush over, he will get it!"

A duo of high school detectives tracked the Phantom Thief Kidd in the sky to the vicinity of Osaka Bay.

This made Conan and Hattori Heiji suspicious at the same time.

After arriving at Osaka Bay, there is no place to stay in the sea if you fly forward, so Kaitou Kidd can only land at Osaka Bay.

Since Officer Zhongmori adopted an extremely secretive strategy this time, no one else knew where the treasure was hidden except for two of his trusted subordinates.

Could it be that Officer Nakamori hid the "Memory Egg" in Osaka Bay?

do not care!

Anyway, Kidd is flying in the sky right now, so you are right to chase him!

He will definitely land!

...

At the same time, Kaito Kid, who had a complicated expression on his face, was flying downwind, preparing to find a secluded place to put away his hang glider and return to his identity as an ordinary high school student, Kaito Kuroba.

While flying, Kidd was thinking in the sky that if there were any casualties tonight, he should follow the promise he just made and surrender to the police.

If he honorably keeps his promise, there is no doubt that Qin Zhibo will help him "be honorable".

After finding out that I am Kaitou Kidd, what should my teachers, classmates, and friends think of me?

Most importantly, what does Aoko think?

Will Qingzi leave me?

Will Qingzi never ignore me again?

For the first time in his life, Kuroba Kaito felt a lot of pressure on himself.

It turns out that my father and mother have always been under such pressure...

By that time, I am afraid that the only people in the world who can accept me are my mother, Father Terai... and Koizumi-san...

Kidd was worried in the sky, and his empty-eyed right eye suddenly felt a stimulating red light shining directly into his right eye from the ground.

Kidd's eyelids moved slightly. Before he could see where the red laser came from, a bullet flew towards him.

Whoosh——

Snapped!

The lens of the monocle shattered, and Phantom Thief Kidd could no longer maintain his balance and fell towards the bay.

...

At the same time, Conan on the ground noticed a dark figure on the viaduct, holding a long pole-like thing in his hand.

"that is..."

Hattori Heiji, who didn't notice the figure, drove his motorcycle at full speed into Osaka Bay, causing the suspicious figure to flash past Conan's eyes.

When they arrived at the last place where Kidd lost sight of him, Conan and Hattori Heiji only saw a broken monocle on the ground and a pigeon that fell to the ground but couldn't get up.
