Chapter 1613 1621 [Murder of the Phantom Thief] Ask for monthly votes ()
Kidd: "..." Are you curious? You are trying to kill me!
…Wait, is this asshole detective holding a grudge?
Kidd laughed dryly and reluctantly refuted Jiang Xia's words just now: "What's wrong with not having a gun? I don't have a gun either. Who would carry a gun these days? Only those tasteless lawless thugs would use violence to solve problems. We just need to use our brains and act elegantly."
"Huh? You don't have a gun?" Jiang Xia said a familiar line, "Don't you have a magic gun that can fire special 'bullets' and attack from a distance? How can it not be considered a gun? It's much more useful than my baton."
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a sound of metal friction behind him - Jiang Xia seemed to be really fiddling with the two nails.
Kidd was sweating profusely. Although he had a spare parachute, he was just making a target for the police if he landed with a parachute in a big city. "What's a toy gun? No matter how you look at it, your baton is more high-tech. It hits the flesh with a real sense and can give the criminals a memorable punishment. This is the weapon a man should use!"
The sound of screws twiddling stopped.
Jiang Xia seemed moved by his sincerity: "What you said seems to make some sense."
“…”
Kidd showed an elegant smile, while making straw men in his heart: Although he has said this many times, he still needs to say it again now.
——It turns out that none of the detectives are good!
…
There was still some distance to the intended destination. At this time, there was an overpass ahead.
Kidd's eyes lit up and he couldn't wait to control the glider and land over there.
——Being in the same sky with this winged detective made the Phantom Thief feel completely insecure. The "Magician Under the Moonlight" missed the solid ground at this moment. At least some unscrupulous detectives couldn't pry his screws from the ground.
The two landed on the platform at the top of the viaduct, one in front of the other. Behind them was a heavy tram passing by, separated by a column. The lights inside the car were bright, and the moonlight outside was dim. No passenger noticed that there were two high school students silently in a place where there shouldn't be people.
Kidd stepped on the ground with lingering fear, then touched his glider to check it.
He heaved a sigh of relief when he found that the screws were still there. At the same time, he looked up at Jiang Xia across from him, a little confused: "Why are you following me? Do you have something to tell me?"
Jiang Xia: “…” He didn’t have much to say, mainly because it was too boring to fly alone. If he showed it to others, he was afraid it would hurt their fragile worldview… After counting, the thief opposite him was the most suitable person to appreciate his new wings.
Of course, such a simple reason should not be spoken out loud.
Jiang Xia shook the mini detective in his hand and said, "You kidnapped the child, so of course I, as the guardian, must take him back."
Kidd: "..." The person is clearly in your hands the whole time, don't put the blame on me for kidnapping...
This reason did not hold water, so Kidd began to think for himself.
Soon, his high IQ gave him a reasonable explanation. Kidd suddenly realized: "You are here for those men in black."
Jiang Xia: “…” Hmm?
Yeah. That's right.
Jiang Xia nodded heavily.
Kidd recalled the situation carefully: "When I just jumped off the building, I really felt some spying eyes, but then they disappeared quickly - it might be because after leaving the roof, the light below became dimmer and dimmer, so the stalkers lost Conan and me."
Jiang Xia also said seriously: "Don't be careless. According to my observation, those men in black are always elusive. They might suddenly appear next to you one day and give you an attack that is difficult to avoid."
Kidd waved his hand and said, "You underestimate me too much. You cheated with wings. How could anyone catch up with me? Even if I flew a helicopter, it would be impossible. Those things are even more cumbersome than my hang glider."
When the topic came to this point, Jiang Xia always felt that the thief's gaze began to drift towards his back.
The next moment, Kidd, while talking about business, moved closer as if nothing had happened, and took advantage of the chaos to pinch the pair of wings that had a strong presence.
Kidd: "..." It really feels like a monster's wings! How did he do that? This is amazing!
Jiang Xia looked at the thief's gradually brightening eyes: "?"
Kidd cleared his throat and glanced to the side, looking a little shy, which was rare in a century. "Can you take this off? I want to try it, too."
Jiang Xia: “…” You’ll have a chance to try, but let’s forget about it today.
He maintained his image as an innocent human being: "I'll ask Kiri Tengu in a few days. After all, it was a gift from him, and I can't just give it away casually."
As he was speaking, the time limit was up. The wings behind Jiang Xia spread out and melted into the air like fragments. The parts that humans could not see turned into shikigami and returned to the tattoo space on his heart.
On the other side, Kidd watched this scene, trying to remain calm, but a hint of shock still appeared in his eyes. He murmured, "This is unscientific, it doesn't conform to the law of conservation of matter..."
Jiang Xia looked at the remaining magic power on his body: "..." Are you qualified to say that?
in addition……
He silently picked up Conan in his hand and shook it in front of Kidd: Look, this is the thing that is most inconsistent with the law of conservation of mass.
Now that his wings were gone and Jiang Xia was showing them off, Kidd finally paid some attention to this mini detective who was backstabbed by his accomplice.
Kidd: "Come to think of it, aren't you curious about how I stole the sapphire on the second floor stage when I was on the rooftop?"
Jiang Xia glanced at him and said, "What's there to be curious about? You didn't plan to steal today. The gem should still be in Mu Shuli's hands."
Kidd: “…” Damn, this detective actually understood the preview letter.
Jiang Xia: “…” The riddle man is really strange. Isn’t the purpose of writing a letter to be read by others?
The last bit of fun in teasing the detective was gone. After being teased by the detective all night, Kidd felt bored and waved his hand: "I'm leaving."
Before the next tram passed the viaduct, Kidd jumped into the night sky, opened his glider again, and his figure quickly disappeared into the night.
…
It's a bit cold standing up high in the wind.
Jiang Xia persisted until Kidd flew completely away, then he turned his back and sneezed secretly.
Then he turned around as if nothing had happened, tore out a wisp of mist, and put it into his mouth.
Soon, the wings behind him opened again, Jiang Xia picked up Conan and flew towards the city below.
He found a hospital, avoided the cameras, and skillfully dropped him off at the hospital entrance. After Conan was picked up by the enthusiastic nurse, Jiang Xia headed back toward the theater building.
