Chapter 062 Stealing the Ruby (Part 7)
Higashino Hi and Hatori Yui searched several rooms, but couldn't find Higashino Teru.
When they reached a place with brighter light, Higashino Hi finally looked up and saw Hatori Yui's face clearly.
He chuckled and said, "What's wrong with your face?" His originally handsome appearance turned into a villain who could make a child cry with just one glare.
"Kaito Kidd did it for me." Hatori Yui touched his cheek and asked, "Is it ugly?"
Dong Yexi shook his head: "Not really, he just looks fierce."
Hatori's hand, which was touching her face, paused slightly, and when they passed a washbasin, she immediately went over to wash her face.
Dong Yexi looked at him teasingly: "You pay quite a lot of attention to your appearance."
Hatori Yui wiped his face with his sleeve, looked at Higashino Xi, and said, "After all, this is also my advantage."
The hair on his forehead was wet and a little messy.
Dong Yexi swallowed silently.
Suddenly I felt the sexiness of wet hair.
But now is not the time to think about these things. He looked away, coughed lightly, and said, "I don't know where that kid Dong Yezhao is hiding. We have to find him quickly."
Hatori Yui's lips curled up slightly and he nodded.
\\
Time passed little by little, and soon it was eleven thirty.
Takayama Takashi couldn't help but yawn and muttered to himself, "Why did Kaito Kid set the time so late? It's disturbing other people's sleep!"
When Conan Edogawa, who was standing in the middle of the room holding the box, heard this, the corners of his mouth twitched twice.
No matter what, Kidd is a thief. Isn't it normal for him to steal things in the middle of the night?
Rather than knowing the time, he wanted to know how Kidd would use the wind and how he would appear.
At this moment, the chandelier above his head, which was originally lit, suddenly went out.
Conan Edogawa was stunned, and the members of the Takayama Group who were guarding around were also a little agitated.
Gao Shanlong said loudly: "Don't be nervous." He took out a remote control and pressed it, and a circle of light lit up on the wall.
He raised his head and said, "Humph, I knew Kidd would play tricks like this, so I had someone install battery-powered light strips in advance." His tone sounded as if everything was under control.
The younger brothers around him began to boast, "You are worthy of being the team leader," "The team leader has made preparations for a rainy day," and "I will definitely make sure Kidd never returns."
Edogawa Conan frowned and hugged the box tightly in his arms.
No, this wasn't Kidd's doing. Kidd is always punctual, always on time. Someone else has sneaked in here!
Click, click...
Just then, footsteps were suddenly heard.
Takayama Takashi put away his smile and shouted, "It's Kaito Kidd! Where is he?!" The younger brothers also immediately fell silent and looked around for the source of the sound, but they didn't see any figure.
The footsteps became louder and louder, as if the person was gradually approaching, and when he "came in front of him", he suddenly stopped.
Gao Shanlong looked up alertly: "It's up there!"
Edogawa Conan immediately looked up and saw a man standing on the beam. He was wearing a black tights, and the upper half of his face was covered by a mask. There were three red light bulbs on the mask, distributed in a triangle, which looked very weird.
This is not Kaito Kidd!
The people in the Takayama group also knew that he was not Kaito Kidd. Takayama Takashi asked sternly, "Who are you?"
"Hehehe~" the masked man said with a smile, "I am Spider, and I am here to take the ruby."
Takashi Takayama:! ! !
It turns out that Kaito Kidd is not the only one who has set his sights on "longevity"!
The spider stretched out his hand towards Edogawa Conan and said, "Little brother, give it to me."
Edogawa Conan subconsciously hugged the box tightly and shrank back.
"Kid Buster" is useless against others. Gao Shanlong thought of this and immediately ordered his men to charge forward. "Take down this ghostly guy!"
The boys shouted and began to move towards the beam where the spider was. Some threw things at the spider, but he dodged them; some grabbed something from below and jumped up to hook his feet; others held onto the pillar, ready to climb onto the beam to fight him.
Edogawa Conan moved to the door.
Spider chuckled, raised his hand, and snapped his fingers.
“Bang!”
The surrounding scene changed instantly.
Edogawa Conan's pupils suddenly shrank.
"Ah? Ah!"
The wooden floor suddenly transformed into a swamp, sucking people down. The pillars the men were clinging to transformed into thick snakes. Looking up, they could see their massive heads. The snakes' mouths opened, their sharp fangs flashing coldly, easily devouring a person in one gulp. The men immediately let go, screaming and trying to escape, but the swamp beneath them held them back.
"What the hell is going on?!" Gao Shanlong said in shock and anger while trying to pull his legs out of the swamp.
Edogawa Conan closed his eyes, squatted on the ground and touched it, and immediately shouted: "These are all illusions! Everyone close your eyes!"
After hearing this, everyone closed their eyes.
"Hahahaha!" Spider laughed loudly, "It's useless. My illusion is not something that can be easily mastered!"
He snapped his fingers again, and everyone who had their eyes closed suddenly felt the area around them getting hot, as if they were on fire.
Some people couldn't help but open their eyes, and the surrounding scene really turned into a sea of fire.
Just when everyone was panicking, the door was suddenly kicked open, the flames flickered a few times, and then disappeared.
It was Kogoro Mouri who came to the rescue.
It turned out that they had been guarding outside the door, and when they heard the noise inside and realized something was wrong, they wanted to rush in. If he hadn't been stopped by other brothers, he would have been even faster.
Gao Shanlong looked at him in surprise and said, "Mr. Maori, thank you so much! I will reward you handsomely when I catch this thief!"
Maori Kogoro twitched his lips: "Just let us go."
Mao Lilan and Hattori Heiji protected Edogawa Conan behind them and looked at the person on the beam vigilantly.
"Strange, it's not Kaito Kidd." Ran Mouri whispered.
Hattori Heiji frowned and looked at the man carefully: "This guy... He is the international killer spider! Why is he here?!"
The spider had sharp ears and heard what Hattori Heiji said. He folded his arms around his chest and raised his head and said, "I didn't expect anyone here would know me. It seems I'm quite famous!"
Edogawa Conan approached Hattori Heiji and whispered, "Be careful, his target is also Ruby."
"His illusion has been broken, he has no other tricks left, come on everyone!" The younger brothers of the Gaoshan Group stood up again and attacked the spider again.
When Gao Shanlong heard that Spider was a killer, he immediately sensed danger. He pulled out his pistol and shot Spider twice, but Spider dodged it.
The spider stretched out its hand, and Gao Shanlong suddenly floated up from the spot.
"W-what?!"
Everyone looked at Gao Shanlong struggling in the air in astonishment, and then looked at the spider in shock.
"He, he is not a human!" a younger brother pointed at him and exclaimed.
"Impossible!" Edogawa Conan gritted his teeth.
A person actually floated?! How could such a thing, which defies the laws of nature, be possible?!
The spider turned to look at Edogawa Conan, and then he also floated up. Mao Lilan immediately reached out to grab Conan's feet, but the next second, her feet were off the ground and she was forced to separate from Conan.
Conan Edogawa & Kogoro Mōri & Heiji Hattori: "Ran!"
"Eh?!" Mao Lilan, who had always been in awe of this unknown power, couldn't help but cover her eyes, "What is that?!"
Edogawa Conan struggled for a few times in the air, suddenly noticed something strange, and then calmed down.
The two of them and Takayama Takashi were floating in the air.
The spider spread out his hands and said with a smile, "All right, little brother, hand me the box in your arms. Be good, and uncle won't kill you."
Edogawa Conan kicked his legs twice in the air and said pitifully: "But uncle, you are too far away from me, I can't reach you. Since you can make me fly, please pull me closer!"
Spider chuckled, "It's okay, just throw it over here."
Edogawa Conan shook his head: "No, what if the gem is broken?"
"Don't worry, uncle will catch it." Spider reached out again, "Throw it over here quickly."
"Oh~~" Edogawa Conan smiled slightly and said, "You actually can't let me get close to you, right?"
The spider was stunned.
Edogawa Conan continued, "You probably used some device to hang us up, but the distance is hard to control." He glanced sideways at his shoulder, "Anyway, I clearly felt a pulling force on my back. If it's really a special ability, then shouldn't you be able to feel any force except gravity?"
Gao Shanlong, who was standing by, suddenly realized: "Indeed, I felt like I was being hung!"
Mao Lilan also put down her hands that were covering her face, and said with lingering fear: "It turns out that the one holding me was not a ghost..."
Edogawa Conan gave the spider an innocent smile: "Uncle, your illusions are all tricks."
When Spider heard this, the vein on his forehead jumped.
What's wrong with this kid? Why isn't he afraid at all? And he even calls his illusion a hoax! This is unbearable!
He narrowed his eyes slightly and thought: It's so unlovable, I might as well kill it.
A silver needle popped out from his fingertips and shot towards Edogawa Conan.
The silver needle was about to shoot into Conan's heart, but was intercepted by a playing card. Then, several more cards flew over and cut the thin string hanging the three people.
Mao Lilan adjusted her posture slightly and landed directly in a half-squat position.
Edogawa Conan rolled over and landed safely.
Only Gao Shanlong, because of his struggle, fell deformedly when he fell, and fell directly to the ground.
Everyone gasped. "Hiss... that sounds a bit painful."
Spider stared at the man opposite him and said in a deep voice: "Kaito Kidd..."
The people on the ground looked up again and saw a flash of white appear on the beam opposite.
It’s Kaito Kidd!
The members of the Takayama Group were a bit agitated. However, in this situation, should they catch Kidd or Spider?
"Spider, I didn't expect you to be here too. You ruined my plan." It's not even twelve o'clock yet!
Although Kaito Kidd knew that the zoo would appear, he was very dissatisfied with Spider's ruthless actions, forcing him to change the way and time of his appearance.
His original plan was quite impressive, but now that he couldn't show it off, he was very upset.
The spider smiled and said, "I knew you were coming, and I was sure to get the gem before you did."
"Ha, even if you came early, you still couldn't grab it, right?" Kaito Kidd laughed, "And your trick was exposed by a little kid. It seems that your cheating skills are getting worse and worse." Let you also experience the feeling of being exposed by the detective!
Spider snorted coldly and shot several silver needles at Kaito Kidd. Kaito Kidd dodged immediately and blocked those he couldn't avoid with playing cards.
The two of them suddenly started fighting, and everyone below was a little confused.
At this time, Hattori Heiji walked up to Edogawa Conan and Mao Lilan and whispered, "What are you still watching? Hurry and leave!"
Edogawa Conan looked at Kaito Kid hesitantly.
Hattori Heiji tugged at him and urged, "Stop looking and go! He'll be fine!"
The three of them moved quietly towards the door. Maori Kogoro noticed and slowly backed away. The four of them moved to the outside of the gate without anyone noticing. They were about to turn around and run, but were blocked by a group of men in black.
Edogawa Conan was shocked when he saw how those people were dressed.
Why is the Black Organization here too?!
The leader wore a black top hat and a moustache. If it weren't for the different shape of the moustache and the fact that he had witnessed Tequila's death, one would have thought they were the same person!
Could they be brothers?
Edogawa Conan thought.
The man who looked like the Tequila brothers raised his gun and pointed it at Edogawa Conan with a very ferocious expression: "Hand over the gem."
Hattori Heiji immediately took the box from Conan's arms, threw it to him, and said, "Here you go."
After the man got the box, he looked into the house again, smiled triumphantly, and said to himself, "Spider, I win this time." Then he turned and left with his men.
Conan Edogawa frowned slightly: Is this guy in the same group as that killer? He's not a member of the Black Organization?
However, the man didn't get far before he was stopped by Kumamoto Zhiming and his men. Without saying a word, both sides drew their guns and started a gunfight.
Kogoro Mouri immediately held the children's heads and made them squat down, then protected them and helped them find cover.
The sound of gunfire was like the sound of popping beans, with a few bullets occasionally leaking into the back. Just when a stray bullet was about to hit Mao Lilan, Hattori Heiji suddenly rushed over to her, protecting her head and sliding forward for a long distance.
"Hattori?" Ran Mouri raised her head from his arms, staring at his chin with some confusion in her eyes.
Edogawa Conan: ???
"Hurry up!" Without giving them time to react, Kogoro Mouri immediately grabbed the man and continued to rush forward. He finally managed to hide behind the rockery in the garden.
Mao Lilan looked towards the room and could vaguely see the figure of Kaito Kid through the broken door. She then shifted her gaze to Hattori Heiji's chest, feeling a little confused.
Kaito Kidd, does he have a female assistant?
\\
On the street not far from the headquarters of Takayama Group.
Gin was sitting in the car with his eyes closed, when suddenly someone knocked on the window. He opened his eyes and saw the smiling face of Amuro Toru.
Gin frowned, lowered the car window, and asked in a deep voice, "Why are you here?"
Amuro Toru looked around, then opened the back door and got in. He turned around and faced Gin's gun. He quickly raised his hands and said, "What a coincidence! I didn't expect to see you here!"
Gin didn't withdraw his hand, staring at him sharply.
Amuro Toru could only explain: "The second son of the Tono family was kidnapped. Didn't you arrange for that newcomer to approach him? When he found out that he was kidnapped, he immediately asked Vermouth for help. Then Vermouth asked me for help and asked me to pick them up."
After confirming that their mission had not been leaked, Gin retracted his pistol and said, "You mean, Vermouth went in disguise?"
Amuro Toru nodded. "I didn't know you were here. But this is perfect. I'm afraid I can't handle it alone."
Gin fell silent, tapping his fingers on his knees a few times, when his walkie-talkie suddenly rang.
"Brother Gin, we discovered that a group of unknown individuals have infiltrated the Takayama Group. They are also carrying weapons."
Before Gin could reply, bursts of gunfire were heard from within the Takayama Group.
Gin's eyes sharpened, and he immediately gave the order: "Attack now."
"Chianti, Cohen, pay attention to cover Vermouth."
Cohen: "Roger that."
Chianti: "Ah? That woman is in there too? Tell me what she looks like now!"
Gin looked at Amuro Toru. He said, "Vermouth disguised herself as Hattori Heiji. The darkest one."
Gin: "Did you hear that?"
Cohen: "Roger that."
Chianti: "Pfft~ Bourbon actually called someone black! Doesn't he have any idea what he looks like? Hahahaha~ I'm dying of laughter!"
Toru Amuro:......
Gin warned sharply, "Chianti!"
Chianti: "I understand~"
