Chapter 241: First Contact

A few days later.

At night, the crowd gathers in front of the museum to which the Suzuki Foundation belongs.

Previously, Jiro-kun Suzuki of the Suzuki Foundation sent a challenge message to the strange thief Kidd in the newspaper, saying that he had prepared a gem waiting for the other party to come.

And the strange thief Kidd also responded to the battle, and said that he would use the "walking" method to get the gem in his hands.

This attracts a lot of people.

Most of the people are fans of Kidd the Thief, and they gather together to see Kidd the Thief or something.

"It's just a showy thief!"

on a building.

Qingming bent over, lying on the railing, looking at the scene in front of him with little interest.

He came to see the excitement.

The Maori family also came, and they were invited by Suzuki Sonoko to come to see the excitement, but Maori Kogoro and Conan were not just spectators.

Of course, they weren't with Qingming.

I didn't even know that Qingming was coming, and at this time, they were all full of disbelief expressions like the audience crowded on the street.

Because the strange thief Kidd did "walk" over.

Coming from the air.

Walking in the air against gravity? And also make the sound of walking?

It's so hard to figure out.

Of course, this must have used some kind of technique, but Conan didn't explain it clearly for a while, because according to various circumstances, there was no wire rope or anything like hanging the monster thief Kidd for the time being.

It doesn't matter.

Qingming doesn't care about this, but he can really walk in the air and soar in the sky, so he naturally looks down on these small means.

Moreover, this technique is too easy to see.

Conan was only misled, and when he reacted, he would soon be able to solve the puzzle, no big deal.

Of course, Qingming is not just for watching the excitement.

Behind him, a young girl appeared.

Wearing a high school uniform, scarlet medium and long straight hair, burgundy eyes, and a figure walking slowly, revealing a mysterious temperament, such a girl is the focus of attention no matter where she is placed.

"It's better to be in the limelight than not to be in the limelight."

The girl said so.

Slowly walked to Qingming's side, with a mysterious smile on his face, looking at the farce going on in the distance.

It's just a farce, indeed.

Anyway, those policemen are really idle enough, and every time they put on such a big battle to face the monster thief Kidd, they fail every time, making a thief in the limelight.

"People who don't have the ability can't be in the limelight, people with a little ability think about being in the limelight all day long, and people with big skills can't be in the limelight."

Qingming said so.

Turning his head slightly, he looked at the girl standing beside him.

What a beautiful girl.

This is the witch?

Horse monkey shochu (magical girl) or something,It's really the first time I've seen someone alive.,Although there have been some small exchanges through black cats before.。

"Oh?"

The girl seemed to find it amused, and the smile on her face became a little more obvious.

"So, which one are you?"

"Me? I'm neither, I'm just a coffee shop owner, it's not a big deal. ”

"Coffee shop owner......"

The girl retracted her smile and quietly watched the drama that continued in the distance.

Qingming didn't speak either.

There was silence for a long time.

"So, why did you ask me to meet here?"

Qingming asked.

Originally, he planned to stay in a coffee shop or manor to study the Taoism he was interested in, but one day before, the black cat ran into the coffee shop and climbed onto the counter.

Then, a message from the witch came.

Koizumi Hongzi made an appointment with Qingming to meet here tonight, and he didn't say anything, just asked Qingming to come over.

Qingming is coming.

By the way, I watched a farce, and I thought it was boring, so many people couldn't catch a thief, and Conan, as if he had been forcibly lowered his IQ, was led by the nose.

Obviously, this guy was able to play Belmode all over the place before.

On the night of the full moon, Belmode's plan was completely seen through by him, and although there was a bit of an accident in the middle, it was generally carried out according to his plan.

So it's obviously a smart man.

But it doesn't matter.

"It's nothing, I just think we've fought many times in private, so I just want to meet you, a Taoist priest, at this opportunity."

That's how the girl explained.

Previously, they did fight back and forth secretly many times, although they knew each other's existence, they had not met, and they didn't even have a real verbal conversation, they just conveyed information through the black cat.

It's not a verbal conversation, it feels like eye contact.

Divine Friendship?

None of that matters.

As an opponent, as the only known Taoist priest and witch, it seems unreasonable not to see each other.

That's understandable.

Anyway, for Qingming, he also wants to meet this magical girl, not because of anything else, just because the two sides can be regarded as the same kind, and at present, in addition to the two of them, no third person with the ability has been found.

Maybe the only two?

This is possible, but since there are two of them, theoretically speaking, there are so many people in the whole world, there should be other capable people.

Although they can't meet each other except each other.

"It's raining!"

Qingming raised his head, and tiny raindrops fell from the sky and fell on his face, with a tiny cold touch.

It was said before that it was going to rain.

But it won't rain too much, and it won't rain too long.

Distance.

Kidd the Strange Thief was already approaching the museum, and he was about to "walk" in front of the gem.

But stopped.

Then a "bang" released a cloud of smoke and disappeared.

"He's pretty good at playing the cops."

The girl said.

Apparently, she admired the thief Kidd.

Think about it, according to some of Qingming's memories, if there are no accidents, the girl also has a secret promise to the strange thief Kidd.

Because the boy is not as interested in her as the others, the girl is attracted instead......

It's a clichΓ© setting.

But anyway, it's precisely because it's special that it's eye-catching, and it's a normal performance.

"So-so."

Qingming is not very optimistic about the strange thief Kidd.

But it doesn't matter.

"Now, Miss Witch."

β€œοΌŸβ€

"You know divination, right?"

"Of course."

"How about making a deal? You help me with divination, I help you with fortune telling, and see our future for each other. ”

Qingming said.

Since you can't calculate your own business, if you let someone else do it, maybe it's okay, so you can also know some things that may happen.

But the girl shook her head and refused.

Qingming was a little puzzled.

"Why?"

"Divination and fortune-telling are not good things, so if it's not particularly important, it's better not to do it, don't you know, some things will have serious consequences if you do too much?"

"The consequences? There are countless possibilities for the future, fortune telling, just want to know what you are going to face, and then either go with the flow or find a way to make your future another possibility, what can be the consequences? ”

Qingming said he didn't understand.

The rain became heavier, and the sound of "bang-la-la-la" rain could be heard, and the ground began to get wet.

But whether it's Qingming or a witch, it's not affected.

The girl's eyes also kept looking into the distance, and the gathered crowd gradually began to dissipate.

"There are indeed countless possibilities for the future, but that only refers to most things, some things, there is only one possibility, which cannot be changed, and insisting on changing will only cause bad consequences."

"What can be a possibility?"

"A lot."

"A lot? For example? ”

"For example......

The girl finally moved her gaze and looked at Qingming.

His eyes did not fluctuate, and the words he said seemed to be able to make people feel a chill.

"Death."
