Chapter 449 Monster Witch and Phantom Thief Food Chain
Kidd stared at the magic circle at his feet: "..."
He tried to pull the fishing line before he could retrieve it.
However, his whole body was stuck by the magic circle, and the little power brought by the mechanism was completely unable to move him and get him out of the trap.
After making several attempts in just a few seconds, Kidd was finally at his wits end.
He silently looked at Koizumi Anko in front of him. Then he looked at the mature and charming woman walking out from the other side, wearing a crimson hood, and a desperate national curse emerged in his heart.
...Why are there so many unscientific comparisons everywhere?
The life of ordinary male high school students is getting increasingly difficult.
…
Kuroba Kaito was put into the car by the witches and then drove all the way to the castle in the suburbs.
On the way, he tried to escape several times, but failed repeatedly and failed to escape from the witch's poisonous claws.
After catching someone for the last time, Minamoto Kurenai tapped her chin with her fingertips, looking at Kidd and thinking:
"My magic power has not flowed abnormally. I have given you so many opportunities, and you have never turned into a monster, increasing your chances of escaping. It seems that you are not that monster, but Kidd?"
"..."
Kidd didn't say anything, and was secretly wary. It sounded like this new witch was actually coming for Kiriten Dog.
...With Koizumi Anko’s lesson learned from the past, they should have discovered Kiriten Dog’s behavior of deceiving and drinking magic power. Why did they come here specially to deliver food and look so confident?
Could it be that they have found a way to deal with monsters and want to settle accounts with Kiritengu this time? Speaking of which, this new face does look more powerful than the underage Koizumi Anko...
Thinking of this, Kidd's originally relaxed heart sank slightly - this is not impossible. After all, Grandpa Terai said that magicians all have corresponding inheritances. Not only have they honed their exquisite magic power during the long inheritance,
He also accumulated a wealth of knowledge.
...Among them, if one or two of them can restrain monsters, it would be very reasonable.
Moreover, the little witch brought out the big witch to find Kiritengu, probably not just for revenge.
Kidd thought of the habits of the legendary witches, and could not help but think of several bottles and jars in his mind - one with the label "Misty Dog Meat", the other with "Misty Dog Skeleton", and there were also Misty Dogs.
The brand's heart, liver, spleen, stomach, lungs, eyes, wings... In this world, even parts of ordinary animals and plants can become precious materials, let alone the Kiriten Dog, which is very rare and precious in itself.
Thinking of the bloody scene that he imagined in his mind, Kidd looked at Minamoto Kurenai who started to ask questions, and immediately closed his mouth tighter.
…
Minamoto Kurenai asked a few questions, but received no response, so she simply sat up straight again and ignored him.
When she arrived, she dragged Kidd, who was surrounded by magic, into the castle and threw him into the magic circle drawn in advance.
This magic circle is exactly the same as the one Koizumi Anko set up a few days ago.
Kidd looked familiar and originally thought it was another clingy glue formation.
However, the moment he fell in, he couldn't help but let out a suppressed scream.
——Kidd had been in the same formation for so long before, and other than feeling that his movements were blocked, he didn't feel any discomfort.
But now, without a Kiriten dog who loves magic power, he was shocked to realize that humans and monsters were indeed different, and he realized belatedly what the magic circle arranged by the witches was.
——This is not just a net for catching prey, but more like a crematorium that gives the roasted person an immortal curse. The moment he falls into the magic circle, from the skin to the muscles, it penetrates deep into the bone marrow.
Every cell seemed to be torn and burned by flames, and the pain was worse than being wrapped in a needle blanket full of steel thorns and being dragged by a horse.
Minamoto Kurenai gathered her robe, stood elegantly next to the magic circle, and asked softly: "Where does that monster usually live? Where can I find him?"
Kidd's forehead was covered in painful cold sweat, but he still said stubbornly: "What monster...can you respect science...read more and be less superstitious?"
"Lying in the magic circle and talking about science..."
Minamoto Kurenai snorted lightly, bent down, and pulled out a piece of Kid's hair.
She raised her hand and snapped her fingers, and red flames rose up, engulfing her hair silently.
Minamoto Kurenai stared at the flames in her palm for a while, then stretched out her hand and put the gradually dissipating firelight against the crystal ball.
The originally transparent crystal suddenly became turbid, as if covered with a layer of hazy smoke.
Immediately afterwards, the scene inside changed, and several blurry images flashed through——
The scenes shown in the picture are all late at night.
The protagonists at night are the Phantom Thief wearing a striking white cloak, and the Kiriten Dog who stretches out his hand towards the Phantom Thief as if to receive something.
...This is the intersection of Kidd and Kiritengu.
Minamoto Kurenai looked back at these scenes and felt that Kiritengu was handing tools to Kidd. At the same time, she secretly guessed: Could it be that Kidd, as an ordinary person, could steal treasures repeatedly and ignore countless police officers who rounded him up?
Because he actually has an elusive monster helper?
Thinking along this line of thought, Minamoto Kurenai immediately nodded secretly - Kidd wore eye-catching white, perhaps to attract attention to himself, so that the monster who helped him steal would be more invisible, making it easier for him to move in secret...
…
But now, Minamoto Kurenai is more concerned about another piece of information than the way Kaitou and Youkai cooperate in stealing treasures——
Judging from the divination results, the high school student they captured was indeed Kidd.
And he does have contact with Wutian Dog.
"You guys really know each other." Minamoto Hongna put down the crystal ball and dragged her robe back to the magic circle.
She lowered her head to look at Kid, who was curled up in pain and burned by magic. She smoothed her hair that was hanging down from her hood and asked slowly:
"How do you usually contact each other? Letters? Phone calls? Notice letters?
"As long as you help me find him, I can dispel the magic circle immediately - the feeling of being burned by invisible flames is not pleasant."
"..."
Kid looked at the red edge of Minamoto Kurenai's robe, listened to her wonderfully rhythmic words, and fell into deep thought.
People have human rights. Even a witch should not kill easily.
But monsters should not be protected by law...
The row of materials named "Fog Sky Dog xx" appeared in his mind again, and he shuddered silently. Partly because of pain, and partly because he was shocked by the dismemberment scene in his mind.
Seeing that Kidd was back to pretending to be deaf and dumb, Minamoto Kurenai frowned slightly.
She impatiently raised her foot and stamped the ground, and the magic power visible to the naked eye rose. The stinging pain, like bone marrow grinding, became clearer and more intense in an instant.
Kidd's eyes darkened.
He felt the gradually increasing power of the magic circle. After a moment of silence, he gritted his teeth and spoke in a low voice: "...Usually...of course I contact you by phone..."
