After solving the two cases, Fujiwara Yu did not participate in the subsequent interrogation. After dragging his tired body back to Tokyo, he was delighted to receive a day off arranged by his leader. It was simply because his leader thought he was too "hardworking" as he always had fatal cases during his vacation, so he was rewarded with one more day.
Fujiwara Yu, who woke up naturally from a good sleep, walked out of the room with a messy hair. He yawned in an untidy manner, rubbed his eyes and walked towards the bathroom. After washing up, he finally woke up and took care of his hair with a hair dryer and styling spray.
It is of course good to stay at home on holidays, but it would be a pity not to go on a date when you finally have a day off. After struggling for a long time, Fujiwara Yuu decided to go to the reopened Beika Aquarium with Miyano Akemi for a long-awaited date. After all, his younger sister has to go to school today.
After learning of Fujiwara Yuu's idea, Miyano Akemi frowned helplessly and said:
"Why didn't you tell me earlier? Xiaozi and I agreed to research new products at Polo Coffee today."
"Ah? Forget it. There's nothing we can do about it since we've made an appointment. I'll pick you up at Polo Café when you get off work." Fujiwara Yuu had rarely had the chance to pick her up from get off work before, but this time he could fully experience the feeling of picking up his girlfriend from get off work.
"Well, you have a lot of days off anyway. Unless there are no unexpected events, it's nice to go to the aquarium." Miyano Akemi couldn't help laughing at the end. She also thought it was amazing that her boyfriend always came across cases, and she couldn't help but complain.
Fujiwara Yuu's face turned bitter when he heard this. He didn't want to be a model worker, but the eucalyptus scene was like a clinging object. No matter how much he resisted, it would hold on to him tightly and refuse to let go.
He held his chin in his hand and picked up the remote control to turn on the TV. The morning news replay had just begun. After seeing that the host was his old acquaintance Hondou Eikai, he raised his eyebrows, a little curious about the content of today's news.
——"Today's Express News: Kaito Kidd has reappeared after eight years. Once rumored to be dead, it's unexpected that he's back again after eight years. This is what's known as the resurrection of the Phantom Thief!"
Hondou Eikai was obviously not interested in the news about Kaito Kid, and there was not much emotion in his reading of the script.
Fujiwara Yuu scooped up a spoonful of fruit cereal and put it in his mouth, then asked with some confusion:
"Amei, do you know what Kaito Kidd is?"
"I know. I heard that the organization also investigated Kaito Kid, but it came to nothing for some reason. I guess they felt that such a person would be difficult to control, so they gave up the idea of recruiting him." Miyano Akemi nodded. Although she didn't know much about it, she received a call from Enomoto Azusa before going to bed yesterday. She never thought that her young employee was a fan of Kaito Kid.
"The organization really likes to recruit elites from various industries. What does Kaito Kid do?" Fujiwara Yu was a little curious. It was quite interesting that such a name could make headlines in various media overnight.
"Of course, it's literal. He's a super thief who uses sophisticated magic to steal jewelry and other valuable works of art. If I remember correctly, he's committed crimes in 12 countries, including Japan, the United States, and France. He's committed over 130 crimes, with a total of over 150 items stolen, totaling 40 billion yen.
It's said that Kaito Kid is very popular among young women. He's a handsome thief in his forties. His original codename was Kaito 1412, but a young mystery novelist helped him change his name from 1412 to Kid, which means Kid.
Fujiwara Yuu couldn't help but frown when he heard this. As a policeman, he naturally wouldn't have a good impression of criminals, especially since his girlfriend knew so much about Kaito Kid. He narrowed his eyes and said with jealousy:
"Mingmei, you wouldn't..."
"You're overthinking it. I heard all this from Xiao Zi. She's a fan of Kaito Kid."
"Oh, I didn't expect that even a thief could have so many fans. What's going on in people's heads these days?"
Fujiwara Yuu held his chin and looked at the picture presented in the news. The white top hat and white cloak, the mask covered the face, and even the body was transparent. Haha, it was just a low-quality magic trick. It was nothing more than putting a mirror on the body and playing a trick.
——"Just now, we received a warning letter from Kaito Kidd. The letter said that at 11:54 tonight, he will take the gem "Moon Child" from Ono Bank. Kaito Kidd, who has disappeared for many years, has returned to Japan. Who is he?"
Miyano Akemi noticed the change in Fujiwara Yu's expression, she curled her lips and asked:
"Ayou, it seems like you care a lot about Kaito Kidd?"
"No, why would I care about a thief like that?" Fujiwara Yuu awkwardly picked up the remote control and changed the channel. He calmly picked up his coffee and took a sip. He said calmly, "Besides, catching thieves is the job of the Second Investigation Division. I don't need to compete with others for my job."
Although he said he didn't care, his actions quickly betrayed him.
After sending Miyano Akemi to work at Polo Coffee Shop, Fujiwara Yu, who was sitting in the car, quickly opened Google and searched for "Kaito Kid" in the search bar. Tens of thousands of related results soon popped up, including some fan support sites for Kaito Kid.
When he clicked on the Fan Cinema site, he saw that the top post was about stealing the Moon Child tonight.
[The moon magician Kidd has returned, calling on all of Kidd's captives to gather at Ono Bank tonight!]
1l (Dark Magician Girl): After 8 years, 7 months, and 26 days, Kidd-sama has finally reappeared! See you tonight at 11:54 PM downstairs at Ono Bank. Fans of Kidd-sama, please remember to check in and gather! Let's look forward to Kidd-sama's magic show!
7l (The Magician's Apprentice): Oh my god! I really want to see Mr. Kidd's true face, but unfortunately I have to attend a family dinner today. Woohoo, I'll definitely see him next time!
12l (Offering the highest praise to Mr. Kidd): Ahhhhhhh, I finally get to see Mr. Kidd! I have no regrets in this life. I offer the highest praise to Mr. Kidd. Please steal me away, Mr. Kidd!
!
27l (Waiter Under the Moon): I never thought that Mr. Kidd would make a comeback. I will definitely report to the coffee shop after finishing work tonight! Hehe!
…
Fujiwara Yuu stared at these comments with half-moon eyes, and muttered to himself speechlessly:
"How could a thief still have so many fans? Suddenly I feel that Kudo's popularity is normal."
He was searching for information about Kaito Kidd, but his attention was attracted by another piece of information.
Kuroba Toichi is a world-renowned and respected genius magician.
However, these are not the main points. The main point is that he failed to escape from a magic show eight years ago and was rumored to be dead.
Eight years ago, wasn't that exactly the time when Kaito Kidd disappeared?
Could this be a coincidence?
