Yoruichi Toyama probably figured it out.
Kaito Kuroba, or Kaito Kid, certainly had the opportunity to go out and have some fun, and even solved a case.
But his partner was actually Gao Yuan.
If he wants to increase his favorability rating, it can only be through Gao Yuan.
As for Yoruichi Toyama, in his eyes, he and the police were in cahoots, all "bad guys" who held his "evaluation score" and made him do this and that.
The three points of goodwill gained are probably due not only to his face, but also to the fact that the case itself is related to magicians.
He at least showed some goodwill towards your police force; that's already considered giving you face.
"That's alright!" Yoruichi Toyama clenched her fist firmly, determined. "The police still have leverage over him."
"It's not a bad thing to handle more cases like this in the future, little by little, it can add up."
One case is worth 3 points, ten cases are worth 30 points.
Let me count how many theatrical films Kid has appeared in...
If Kaito Kuroba knew what he was thinking, he'd probably thank his ancestors eight generations back.
...
"I'm innocent, officer! I really didn't dress up as Kid!"
When Yoruichi Toyama revisited the Metropolitan Police Department as his "advisor," Kaito Kuroba was crying and wailing in the office of the Third Investigation Division.
After Inspector Nakamori was transferred, a new officer took charge of the Kaito Kid case. He had a serious, stern face and looked like he was not someone to be trifled with.
"Don't try to get away with this! Were you at the shopping street last Thursday at 3 PM?"
"Last week?" Both Kaito Kuroba and Yoruichi Toyama were taken aback when they heard this date.
Yoruichi Toyama originally thought that it was because he had suggested asking Kaito Kuroba for help that Kaito had revealed his true form in front of Sonoko and the others, which was then spread around by those magic enthusiasts.
Although the police have repeatedly asked them to keep it a secret, but... who knows?
However, that was more than a month ago.
"I had my final exams last week! I was so busy memorizing that I almost failed, and I even dressed up as Kid the Kid!"
Kaito Kuroba's face was full of bitterness and resentment, half of it was intentional, and the other half... might be true.
Thinking about what he learned in Japanese high school, Yoruichi Toyama really felt sorry for him.
"And my mom called me on video and said that if I get a deviation score of 95 or higher, I won't need to go to tutoring classes..."
The stern-faced police officer's eyes flickered, as if he had discovered a flaw.
"Then wouldn't you want to take a gamble and save the time you would spend in tutoring classes to dress up as Kid?"
"No, sir, you're... reversing cause and effect, aren't you?" Kaito Kuroba laughed in exasperation.
"I have to take the final exam first, and only if I do well can I not go to tutoring classes."
"Only by not going to cram schools can you dress up as Kid and fly around everywhere."
"You said you saw Kidd in the shopping district last week, but I hadn't even finished my final exams yet!"
The officer rested his chin on his hand, thought for a long time, and finally hummed in agreement.
"That's true..."
"puff--"
This serious assessment made both Yoruichi Toyama and Kaito Kuroba burst out laughing.
This led them to realize that the officer who replaced Nakamori wasn't much smarter.
His only strength is that he is conscientious and responsible.
Finding that he couldn't get anything out of Kaito Kuroba, the serious police officer stood up and turned to Yoruichi Toyama, where they introduced themselves.
The newly appointed police inspector's surname is Ishida, and he is quite ordinary in both appearance and surname.
When they heard the name Yoruichi Toyama, they were not too surprised.
“I’ve heard so much about you,” he said. “Mr. Toyama helped the police catch this cunning phantom thief, Kid.”
"So you came here this time because you found out he was causing trouble?"
Receiving a disdainful look from Kaito Kuroba with his squinty eyes, Yoruichi Toyama chuckled and waved her hand.
"On the contrary, I have something I'd like to ask Kuroba for help with."
"However, before that..."
"Could Inspector Ishida tell me about the discovery of Phantom Thief Kid last week?"
...
Only after asking did I learn that the so-called return of Phantom Thief Kid had been planned for well over a week.
It was about a month ago, a few days after Kaito Kuroba showed off at the mountain villa.
A bank armored truck belonging to Yokohama Bank in Kanagawa Prefecture was robbed.
The masked robbers, armed with guns, killed a security guard before fleeing with a large sum of money.
Meanwhile, many witnesses saw a "large white bird" flying in the sky.
Based on the footage collected later, it is highly likely that it was Kaito Kid wearing his hang glider.
Yoruichi Toyama clicked his tongue in disapproval.
So it is true that it is not easy for a person to gain a good reputation, but it is really hard to get rid of a bad reputation.
Even if Kaito Kuroba is completely under the control of the police, it would be difficult for him to leave Tokyo, let alone go to Yokohama to go paragliding.
Even those in the know understand that Kaito Kuroba only steals jewels and has no accomplices.
But for the general public, aside from die-hard fans like Sonoko, most people would still believe that the robbery of the armored truck was carried out by Kaito Kid and his gang.
Otherwise, what a coincidence that you were paragliding at the scene of a robbery? Huh?
As for Kaito Kuroba, he truly had no way to express his suffering.
He can't even stand up and say, "I am Kidd, I did not rob a bank."
The organization that he and his father had been fighting against has not yet been eradicated, and his identity must be kept completely secret from the public.
Under these circumstances, even if the police come forward to clarify, it will lack credibility.
It was clearly Phantom Thief Kid who did it, and you police are still saying it wasn't him!
