Chapter 1317 Kuroba Kaito: Am I a substitute?

Looking at Kuroba Kaito walking aside, Kudo Shinichi already had a guess in his heart.

I guess that person is also in this small town now...

Although the purpose of these two people coming here is not clear yet, they are probably not just here for sightseeing, right?

At this time, Qin Zhibo was waiting in the restaurant when the phone on the table suddenly vibrated.

He picked up the phone, and Kuroba Kaito on the other side told him what he knew.

Qin Zhibo was surprised when he heard that Mao Lilan had been kidnapped and that the kidnappers explicitly asked Kudo Shinichi to come here.

"Uncle, I'm a little worried that the person who kidnapped the horned girl is someone from the Beast Brotherhood?"

"In that reincarnation prophecy, it was mentioned that the resurrection of the Black Pharaoh requires not only gems, but also a reincarnated human body..."

"If that girl is the reincarnation..."

The conjecture raised by Kuroba Kaito was exactly what Qin Zhibo was worried about.

Although Mao Lilan has a physique that is easy to win prizes, it is really suspicious that she was kidnapped at such a sensitive time and the kidnappers did not ask for money.

But if Mao Lilan is a reincarnated body, why did he name Kudo Shinichi?

"This possibility cannot be ruled out..."

"Since a few hours ago, the gem's signal has been surrounding Wiltshire, indicating that the other party's final destination should be somewhere in the county."

"Now you can only follow Kudo Shinichi and let me know if anything happens."

Qin Zhibo still believes that with Conan's ability, he will find a way to rescue Mao Lilan.

Because of this, if the person who kidnapped Mao Lilan was really a zoo organization, there would be a chance to know the other party's complete plan in advance.

After all, being led by the unstable gem signal is no solution.

Damn it, if only the Finding Object Charm could work...

Qin Zhibo tried the finding spell last night, but the effect was very poor and it was in an unusable state.

After all, gemstones have many approximations, and whether they are real or fake, there is no difference in appearance.

In addition, he felt that "Crimson Tears" itself was like a blocker, rejecting the search of the Finding Object Spell.

This is normal. Otherwise, if it could be found directly using a method similar to divination, the zoo organization would not have to hide it until today.



Under Qin Zhibo's instruction, Kuroba Kaito picked up the phone and returned to Kudo Shinichi.

"My boss agreed~"

"Let me help you and rescue your girlfriend!"

Kuroba Kaito patted Kudo Shinichi's shoulder familiarly, as if the two were old friends who hadn't seen each other for a long time.

Especially their similar Asian faces, passers-by couldn't help but cast surprised glances.

Seeing the familiar look of Kuroba Kaito, Kudo Shinichi looked disgusted, but he didn't know why in his heart, and he didn't dislike the other person's actions.

The two returned to the parking lot outside Salisbury, preparing to return to Dr. Ari's car to discuss the next thing.

When passing by the parking lot, Kudo Shinichi glanced at the many cars in the parking lot and guessed that one of them must be the car of Kuroba Kaito and his companions.

Because according to the passport, Kuroba Kaito is not of driving age, so he must be accompanied by an adult.

This person is probably Michael. As long as he stays here, that person will definitely appear...

As soon as this idea appeared in Kudo Shinichi's mind, he immediately put it back.

Although this time may be the closest to Michael's true identity, rescuing Xiaolan is the most important thing.

Therefore, Kudo Shinichi could only bring Kuroba Kaito back to Dr. Agasa's car.

Dr. Ari, who was sitting in the front driver's seat, saw two identical Kudo Shinichi walking out of the car window, and he was immediately stunned.

He stared at the two of them blankly until the other person walked to the side of his car.

Kudo Shinichi took the initiative to sit in the front passenger seat, while Kuroba Kaito sat in the back seat.

"Shinichi, this is..."

"Doctor, you have met, Kuroba Kaito." Kudo Shinichi gave a brief introduction.

Dr. Ari's eyes were stunned, and then he remembered that there was another boy in this world who looked almost the same as Kudo Shinichi.

"you……"

Dr. Agasa wanted to ask how they met, but this time it was Kuroba Kaito who took the initiative to answer.

"I was traveling here and happened to meet this famous detective..."

"I heard that you are in trouble. I happen to have some time and this famous detective kindly invited me, so I came to help you~"

Facing the frivolous tone of Kuroba Kaito, Dr. Agasa turned to look at Kudo Shinichi.

After receiving a look of affirmation from Kudo Shinichi, Dr. Ali felt relieved.

Just as he was about to speak, a phone rang suddenly with a vibrating buzzing sound.

The pupils of Kudo Shinichi and Dr. Ari suddenly trembled, and the former quickly took out his mobile phone from his pocket.

It was Mao Lilan's cell phone that rang.

He answered the phone and heard the familiar voice of the voice changer on the other side.

"You're in Wiltshire already?"

"Um."

"Come to the highway entrance to the north of the town. There is a black van parked there. Get in directly."

The kidnapper changed the topic and said sternly: "Don't play tricks, otherwise..."

The voice on the phone suddenly stopped, and the next second, a familiar voice rang on the phone.

"Shinichi, don't come over!"

"Xiaolan!"

Kudo Shinichi immediately recognized that the voice belonged to Xiaolan, and was about to say a few more words, but the microphone was controlled by the voice of the voice changer again.

"come quickly……"

After saying that, the other party hung up the phone again.

When he heard the call was hung up, an angry Kudo Shinichi punched the center console in front of him.

hateful!

Mao Lilan's heartbreaking scream just now made Kudo Shin lose his cool in an instant.

Now he wants to wedge the football in the face of the kidnapper.

It's a pity that after his body grew bigger, the Conan version of the foot strength-enhancing shoes invented by Dr. Ali could no longer fit into his normal feet.

"Shinichi, what should we do now?" Dr. Ari asked in a low voice.

Kudo Shinichi, who regained his composure, also gave his answer.

"The only way now is to do what the other party says..."

Hearing this, Dr. Ali couldn't help but have a worried look on his face.

If he fully complies with the kidnapper's request, Kudo Shinichi himself will become the kidnapper's hostage.

At this time, Kudo Shinichi continued to analyze: "Our side is not completely at a disadvantage now, as long as we have the high technology invented by the doctor..."

Soon, Kudo Shinichi took out all the equipment that Conan had changed his identity from.

Among them, prisoner tracking glasses are the top priority.

It's just that this time the prisoner tracking glasses are not tracking the prisoner, but Kudo Shinichi himself.

By wearing a signal transmitter and a pocket bug, Kudo Shinichi can let Dr. Agasa and Kuroba Kaito in the car know the movement and situation in real time.

Kudo Shinichi hid these two things on his body, got out of the car and went to the location requested by the kidnapper to go to the appointment alone.



After passing through the town area of ​​Salisbury, Kudo Shinichi arrived alone on the road on the north side of the town.

I saw a black van parked on the side of the road at the entrance of the highway.

Kudo Shinichi took a deep breath and walked over there with a solemn expression.

When he came to the back door of the van, he reached out and knocked on the door.

The door opened immediately, and two people wearing brown trench coats were sitting on the seats on both sides of the van.

When Kudo Shinichi saw the faces of these two people, he was immediately stunned.

Because judging from their faces, both of them are Asian.

The two people got out of the car and searched Kudo Shinichi.

This made Kudo Shinichi feel nervous.

Fortunately, the signal transmitter and button-type pocket bugging device invented by Dr. Ali were both cutting-edge technologies. The two of them fumbled around and found nothing unusual.

"Get in the car."

After a body search, Kudo Shinichi was taken into the car.

When the car door is closed, the small ceiling light inside the car lights up, which is the only dim light source in the car.

Since he couldn't see the situation outside, Kudo Shinichi could only feel that the car started slowly and became faster and faster.

This made him secretly glad that Dr. Ali had invented it.

Otherwise, I would not know where I was taken in this way.

He sat on the seat on the side of the van and looked at the two people opposite him. They didn't look like kidnappers making phone calls, they were probably just underlings running errands.

However, in order to probe for information, he still asked: "Where is Xiaolan now?"

A person sitting opposite replied: "You will know when you get there..."

"Now, shut up."

As he said that, the other party took out a pistol and put it on his knee, pointing the gun at Kudo Shinichi.

This made Kudo Shinichi look heavy and could only remain silent.

Now he can only hope that people outside can track the location.

At the same time, Dr. Ali was driving in a white car 5 kilometers behind the black van.

Since Dr. Agasa is short-sighted and cannot take off his glasses, the task of using the prisoner's glasses to indicate the direction was left to Kaito Kuroba.

In the passenger seat, Kuroba Kaito stared at the translucent light screen in front of him.

Taking the green dot in the middle as the center of the concentric circles, a moving green dot in the northwest is the tracking target.

Judging from the distance marked on the coordinate system, the longest tracking distance of this black technology is 20km.

This invention is amazing...

Kuroba Kaito secretly marveled, if this thing was installed on himself as Kaitou Kidd, and he didn't discover it in time, he might really be in trouble.

After all, sometimes, the place where he took the gems was quite close to Kuroba's house.

The two of them followed the little green dot ahead from a distance.

During this period, in order to save the power of the glasses, Kuroba Kaito would turn on the tracking function every ten minutes to confirm that the position was not lost.

This tracking lasted for more than two hours, and then the green dot in front stopped moving.

Kuroba Kaito asked Dr. Agasa to stop the car and review the entire route in his mind.

Although the car drove for a long time, Kuroba Kaito discovered based on his extremely keen sense of direction that the car was not driving in a straight line.

Instead, it made a huge circle on the map.

Kuroba Kaito marked his current location on the map, which is actually 6 kilometers north of Salisbury.

At the same time, Kudo Shinichi also felt the car stop shaking.

The dull air and the smell of gasoline emitting from the car almost made his brain fall into coma several times.

Fortunately, when the rear door of the car was opened, a relatively sober smell diluted the peculiar smell.

"Get off the car."

Kudo Shinichi got out of the car and found himself in a garage.

There is still no outside view from the garage. With the help of the small chandelier on the ceiling, you can see some farm tools placed in the corner.

Although the farm tools don't look new, they are still in usable condition.

"Stop looking around and move forward!"

The man in brown clothes behind him pushed his shoulder, and Kudo Shinichi had no choice but to obey his wishes and move forward.

From the garage to the house, he followed the two of them to a basement.

Under the cramped wooden steps with a musty smell is a relatively spacious basement space.

In the bright area in the middle of the basement, Mao Lilan was tied to a chair with her backhand.

"鞥——!"

A towel was tied around Mao Lilan's mouth, and she could only issue a warning with a muffled sound from her own throat.

But how can Kudo Shinichi take care of this after meeting Maorilan?

He was about to rush forward regardless of his safety, but just halfway through, a figure walked out of the darkness behind Mao Lilan, holding a pistol in his hand.

"Stand there and don't move."

Kudo's new face was shocked and he quickly stopped.

Only when the man came out of the darkness did Kudo Shinichi see his face clearly.

Under the wide-brimmed hat is a ferocious face. Apart from the ferocious eyes, the most iconic feature is probably the two mustaches on his mouth.

Looking at Kudo Shinichi standing opposite, the corners of the man's mouth raised slightly and he let out a dark snort.

"Hmph...I finally see your true self."

"Kaitou Kidd."

As soon as these words came out, Kudo Shinichi, who had originally planned to negotiate, was stunned, and for a moment he didn't know what to say.

What is he saying?

You say I'm Kaitou Kidd?

What an international joke!

Kudo Shinichi quickly opened his mouth to explain: "Is there something wrong? I am not Kaitou Kidd!"

"I'm Kudou Shin'ichii!"

Mao Lilan, who was tied to the chair, nodded repeatedly, agreeing with her man's statement.

Before Kudo Shinichi came, she had heard from this man more than once that his purpose was to force Kaito Kid to show up.

But forcing Kaitou Kid to show up, what does it have to do with Kudo Shinichi?

Shinichi can never be Kaitou Kidd!

"Hmph..." the man snorted again, "Are you still pretending? Kaitou Kidd..."

"This is indeed the most unexpected disguise. The real identity of the world-famous Phantom Thief is actually a high school detective."

"As a reward for being 'taken care of' by you many times during this period, I decided to give you a bullet..."

As he spoke, the man suddenly pulled the trigger.

Pia——

A bullet ejected from the dark muzzle and shot through Kudo Shinichi's right shoulder.

Kudo Shinichi suppressed the severe pain of being pierced by the bullet and did not cry out, but he also knelt on one knee in pain.

He covered his shoulder with one hand, still struggling to support himself.

"鞥——!"

Seeing this scene, Mao Lilan's pupils on the chair suddenly shrank and she made a sound from the bottom of her throat.

At the same time, 5 kilometers away by the road, Kuroba Kaito was using prisoner tracking glasses to eavesdrop on Kudo Shinichi's situation.

When he heard that Kudo Shinichi was identified as Kaitou Kidd, he was confused.

What?

Am I a substitute?
