Chapter 901: What the hell, this can’t be…



"After the last murder case, the program team recruited several new people, including Naoki Seiichi and Aohara Daisuke."

In the grove behind the public toilet, Kidd whispered:

"Including Ms. Yoko's new agent, who also came to Nichimi TV at about the same time."

Yoko Okino is not only a singer and artist, but also one of the hosts of Nichiren TV. Under the packaging of Nichiren TV, she is rapidly developing towards the entertainment industry, and the requests she puts forward are highly valued.

"The reason why I suspect them is that some strange things have been happening since the three of them came to the show."

"What's so strange?"

"The production crew started to lose things frequently. At first, they were just some worthless little items, and no one took it seriously. Later, it got worse, until the last time when two lenses were lost, this matter attracted everyone's attention."

For a camera, the lens is equivalent to its eyes. In order to pursue clearer pictures, a good lens is essential.

Normally...

Cameras are divided into three categories: consumer, professional and broadcast, and their prices are rising steadily.

The cameras used by Japanese TV stations are broadcast-grade, which are two levels higher than ordinary home cameras. The price of a PXW-Z750 camera produced by Sony is as high as 3 million yen.

And a broadcast-grade lens that matches the camera...

The price usually ranges from hundreds of thousands to millions of yen.

For example, the 1200mm USM lens nicknamed the Big Cannon, produced and sold by Canon in 1993, took more than a year to produce and was sold for 10 million yen per lens.

This outrageous price...

Losing a lens is no small matter.

They are the lifeblood of Nichimei Television!

Originally, each camera had a dedicated person to keep it, but now two were lost at once, and the Japanese TV station was considered careless for not calling the police.

"Including Mizunashi Reina, everyone thought that it was an insider who stole the footage, so they didn't spread the word and planned to investigate slowly."

Kidd said slowly:

"Because it was our team that lost the footage, the investigation of the traitor naturally fell on Rena Mizunashi. She and I have been keeping an eye out for suspicious people recently... What's with that look in your eyes?"

Halfway through his words, Kidd suddenly noticed that Sakaki Makoto was looking him up and down with his squinting eyes. His expression was as strange as it could be, as if he was saying...

Wasn't it you who did it?

"My dear brother, you are Phantom Thief No. 1412, the man who has left police forces in various countries helpless..."

Sakaki Makoto said earnestly:

"As a thief, you are the ancestor of others, and now others are riding on your head and making trouble?"

"Ask yourself... do you believe it?"

"I....."

Kidd was stunned and speechless for a long time.

you do not say...

Someone stole two cameras right under his nose, and he was slow to realize it...

If this matter gets out, he might as well quit his job. Wouldn't it be better to go home and sell roasted sweet potatoes?

but...

"How could I have known someone was so bold as to steal the production crew's footage!"

Kidd was a little embarrassed and said angrily:

"At that time, I was completely focused on building a good relationship with Mizunashi Reina, and I just dealt with my work casually. That's how someone took advantage of me..."

"Besides, I am a thief, but I will always return what I steal!"

"You can't accuse someone of being innocent. I am upright and honest!"

“........”

I don't know why...

Sakaki Makoto always felt that there was something wrong when these words came out of Kid's mouth.

The theft has already happened, and there is no benefit in blaming Kidd. Sakaki Makoto is just complaining about it. After all...

Kidd is such a pretentious person, he is so arrogant to the core, it's really fun to see him get humiliated...

"Okay, okay, if you walk by the river often, you'll get your feet wet. I caught you once before!"

"Damn it, you were clearly playing dirty tricks that time! If you dare, let's start a fight with real weapons!"

"You must be kidding me, why would I arrest my own brother?"

Sakaki Makoto sighed:

"Stop talking about these useless things. Your dignity as Kaito Kidd has been challenged, so you are particularly concerned about the thieves in the program group, right?"

"Hmm... sort of."

"After investigating for such a long time, we have identified three suspects. We have been quite efficient. Have you made any conclusive findings?"

"A decisive discovery?"

Kidd shook his head.

"No."

"Strangely enough, after the program team lost two valuable lenses, there were no more thefts. I used the internal surveillance of Nichimi TV to identify Ikeda Kayami, Naoki Seiichi, and Aohara Daisuke... Hey! I know what you want to ask!"

"After the lens was lost, I went to buy some magnetic powder and checked the cabinet where the photographic equipment was kept. Apart from the custodian's fingerprints, I found nothing."

If it were the police, they would probably have already started to suspect that the custodian had embezzled the money.

but...

The custodian, the custodian, if something is lost, he must be held responsible!

The stolen second-hand lens needs to be compensated at the original price. What fool would do such a stupid deal?

"Yesterday I followed Aohara Daisuke from the camera crew. He was a sneaky guy. He was in a hurry to go out at lunch time. I followed him all the way down the mountain and saw him returning to the hotel!"
