However, he is not currently focusing most of his attention on that.
No woman is more important than a gemstone!
Pandora's Gem!
This is the most important thing!
Find it, and you'll find the murderer who killed Dad.
The clue lies in the hands of that wicked witch, Koizumi Akako.
Thus, Kaito began his "sycophantic" (crossed out) "attentive" mode.
"Lady Akako~ The weather is so beautiful today! Your gorgeous red hair is even more dazzling than the sun in the sky! It is my honor to serve you!"
Kaito: Yue......
"Lord Akako~ Do you need me to help you with your schoolbag? Or run an errand to buy the latest limited edition chocolate? Just say the word!"
Kaito: My wallet...
"Lord Hongzi~ You see, regarding that... Pandora clue... could you reveal just a little bit more? Just a little bit?"

Koizumi Akako fully demonstrated what it means to be an "elegant fishing master" and "the cruelty of a capitalist witch".
She enjoyed Kaito's attentiveness, accepting all his exaggerated flattery, and occasionally throwing out a few ambiguous and suggestive remarks to whet his appetite, treating him as free labor.
"Hmm~ You did well today. As for Pandora... I think I remembered a few more fragments when I did my divination last night~"
"Oh dear, I haven't had much of an appetite lately, and I'm not in a good mood either. If someone could buy me that limited-edition rainbow swirl ice cream from that place downtown where you have to wait in line for two hours... maybe my memory would come back faster?"
"Want some clues? Sure~ First, help me get that dusty book, 'A Study of Ancient Egyptian Mythology,' from the very top of the library. I'll see if it's mentioned there."
She was like someone holding an invisible fishing rod, the bait dangling in front of Kaito's eyes, visible but never catching, easily manipulating this proud and arrogant phantom thief.
He became her personal tool, ATM, and errand boy.
And the real clue?
Miss Witch said: What's the rush? Let me be in a better mood, or... let me get back at that annoying Yuzuru next time we meet.
Otherwise, there's no motivation.
Douzi was also very frustrated and aggrieved by this, feeling that he was a complete traitor.
But in order to obtain clues, they had no choice but to swallow their anger and continue to be taken advantage of.
He always felt that Hongzi was deliberately stringing him along, but he had no proof!
A witch's mind is deeper than the sea!
