"Ladies and gentlemen!"
He wasn't going to follow his mother's plan; that would be too low-key and completely out of character for Phantom Thief Kid.
If you're going to play, play big.
He wants to make Osaka City boil over tonight because of the appearance of Kaito Kid.
"The show is about to begin!"
Kaito, in his chuunibyou-ish way, shouted loudly, pulled a button from his pocket, and pressed it lightly in front of him.
In an instant, countless dazzling fireworks suddenly rose into the sky, like blooming flowers in the night sky, illuminating the entire night sky above Osaka Castle.
The sudden fireworks attracted the attention of many citizens, who stopped in their tracks and looked up at the sky.
"Damn it, there's no way we can get to Tongtian Pavilion in time."
At the entrance of the Suzuki Museum of Modern Art, Conan and Heiji Hattori gazed at the dazzling fireworks in the sky and angrily cursed.
Just now, through some clues, they successfully pieced together the possible location and time of Kidd's appearance.
As high school detectives, their intelligence is always on point when it comes to solving these kinds of puzzles.
Therefore, they all gave up their plans to have dinner at Hattori's house.
"It's fireworks, the elegance and poetry of summer."
In a private room at a restaurant, a tipsy Shiro Suzuki was enjoying the fireworks display outside with great interest.
"In this situation, we should have another drink!"
Kogoro Mouri, who was also quite tipsy, raised his glass and downed it in one gulp.
The two middle-aged men enjoyed their drinks very much, pouring out their hearts to each other. Under the influence of alcohol, they almost considered each other confidants.
Hattori House.
The bright moonlight, like a silver veil, gently spilled into the dark room, adding a touch of tranquility to the silent space.
Under the cool moonlight, a somewhat lonely figure became even clearer.
She sat quietly at the dining table with an elegant demeanor. The large table of carefully prepared dishes in front of her had long lost their steaming heat when they were fresh out of the pot, and their originally enticing aroma had gradually dissipated into the air.
Outside the window, dazzling fireworks suddenly soared into the sky, their colorful lights attracting the attention of the figures.
She turned her head slightly and looked out the window. The light from the fireworks illuminated her face, making her delicate skin appear even whiter and revealing a serene and beautiful face.
Those delicate features seemed to be illuminated by fireworks, and a hint of loss and loneliness was revealed in their eyes.
"Wow, what beautiful fireworks!"
Xiaolan, who had just come out of the arcade, looked in surprise at the fireworks rising in the distance.
"Osaka's fireworks are spectacular too," Sonoko exclaimed.
"That's strange, it's not like today is a day for fireworks, is it?" Kazuha pouted, somewhat puzzled as a local.
"There might be some kind of event."
Akemi, who was helping Yuzuru Nana put the doll into the universal capsule, looked up and said.
"Probably so..."
"Oh dear, I was so busy playing the claw machine that I forgot I was supposed to try to win Kid the Kid! It's almost 7:20!" Sonoko shouted anxiously as she looked at her watch.
"You're the one who's going to play with this a little longer, okay?"
While smiling and reminding him, Yuzuru put the last doll into the universal capsule.
"Isn't it because Nan, you're so amazing?" Sonoko chuckled. "I was thinking that since we're here so often, we should catch as many as possible."
Just now, when Yuzuru used his telekinesis to cheat, he caught her every time.
In addition, the incredibly lucky Xiaolan kept providing them with game coins on the arcade machine next to them.
The end result was that there were more and more dolls and more and more game coins.
The boss was almost in tears, looking at the dwindling number of plush toys and the mountain of game coins, his expression was incredibly bitter.
When they were about to leave, the owner personally saw them off at the door, his face full of helplessness and pleading, almost as if to say, "Please don't come back next time."
"Young Master Yuzuru, are we going to the Tsutenkaku Pavilion now?" Akemi asked curiously.
"No, no, no, why should we go looking for Kidd? We can just wait for him to come to us."
Yuzuru shook his finger, a mysterious smile appearing on his face, and then led the bewildered girls into Osaka Castle.
Time passed by, and before we knew it, it was 7:20 p.m.
At this moment, Kaito, atop the Tsutenkaku Tower, was smugly admiring the grand spectacle he had created, and pulled out the button once more.
"Next, I'm going to show you this!"
He shouted loudly, his voice filled with excitement and arrogance.
He then pressed the button, and at the same time, the substation that provides power to the entire Osaka Castle emitted a series of deafening explosions.
A series of loud bangs, like thunderclaps, exploded in the night sky, shattering the original tranquility.
The brightly lit Osaka Castle was plunged into darkness in an instant. The previous prosperity and splendor vanished without a trace, leaving only endless darkness and panic.
Citizens, unaware of what was happening, were initially panicked, and then began making numerous complaint calls.
"Tsk~ I didn't expect you to still dare to do this even after your mom came back. You're really asking for trouble!"
Yuzuru looked at the dimming lights on both sides of the street and clicked his tongue.
He had thought about this when he watched anime in his previous life: cutting off the power to a first-tier city like this would cause economic losses that could buy countless Memory Eggs.
And those hospitals that are providing treatment—if this leads to a patient's death, it would be enough to have Kidd shot countless times over.
"That thief, how dare he!"
The girls were all shocked after hearing this.
I never imagined that Kidd could go to such lengths for a memory egg.
This is Osaka, a city that can rival Tokyo as the capital!
Its importance is self-evident, and Kidd's reckless behavior is nothing short of a provocation against the entire city.
If they can't bring him to justice, the head of the Osaka police will have to resign tomorrow.
"Is that your car?" Yu Shengnan pointed with his folding fan at the convoy that suddenly appeared on the road.
After hearing what Yuzuru said, Sonoko came to her senses and looked in the direction he was pointing. She observed carefully and said, "Ah... it does seem to be our car."
Each car in these convoys bears the exclusive Suzuki logo.
"Hmm?" Sonoko waved from the roadside, and soon a car stopped from the convoy and drove over.
"Good evening, Mr. Yuzuru and Ms. Sonoko."
A middle-aged man respectfully stepped out of the car and greeted the two of them.
As employees of the Suzuki Group, they need to remember certain faces.
This is about whether they can get promoted or keep their jobs.
The competition in the workplace is brutal and fierce; even the slightest mistake can lead to drastically different results.
What are you doing?
Sonoko stood with her hands behind her back, looking at the middle-aged man with curiosity, and asked in confusion.
"We are carrying out Director Ayako's orders!"
