"I was curious, I was a child, but I could have predicted that I would be there on the roof of the building that night...... So, I did a special investigation into you later. ”

So, Kidd the Strange Thief said, looking at Conan, a smug smile appeared on the corner of his mouth:

"However, before today, I still didn't understand how you were such a kid with such a mind. It wasn't until just now, when you were talking to this girl that this girl responded with the name 'Shinichi', and then I finally realized who you really are! ”

"So, you deliberately disguised yourself as Xiaolan just to test me?"

Hearing the meaning of Kidd's words, Conan suppressed the anger in his heart and replied with a serious expression.

"Of course, I still have basic respect for those who can see through my code!"

Kidd said with a chuckle, but he couldn't help but sigh in his heart-

"If that guy didn't tell me about you, why would I bother this time?

"Anyway, if it weren't for that guy's words that made me feel a little interested in you little ghost, I wouldn't have the patience to test you specifically......

"However, the results were very pleasantly surprised......

With that in mind, Kidd the Strange Thief continued:

"Alright. This time, what I want to know has been figured out, and the gem for the target has arrived. So, I won't play with you...... Now it's a kid's, a little detective! ”

As he spoke, Kidd the Strange Thief turned to leave.

And yet—

"Don't try to escape!"

Suddenly, Conan noticed that there were some objects piled up on the ground by kicking the foot, so he kicked them out like a football, stopping the strange thief Kidd from escaping, and then said angrily to him:

"It's not over yet, blame Kidd the thief! Even now, you are still on this ship that looks like a prison at sea, and as long as you are subdued, you will be just as useless! And also...... Where's Xiaolan! ”

Menacing, Conan shouted:

"You probably took advantage of the first time you used a dummy to create chaos, and you swapped Xiaolan's identity! So where did you hide the real Xiaolan? ”

"Hee-hee, you ask this......"

Looking at the destructive power caused by the items that Conan kicked out just now, Kidd the strange thief still had some palpitations-

Is it possible to kick this kind of power not only in football, but also in other things?

And it seems that the lethality is even greater......

"Oh, how do you say it......"

At this moment, in the face of such a love act, the strange thief Kidd noticed that Conan could kick a lot of things, and knew that forcibly hiding was the next step, so it would be better to take advantage of his concern for that girl-

"The girl who borrowed my clothes and is still lying in the lifeboat...... If you don't hurry up, will you catch a cold? ”

So, Kidd thought about it, and then took out her underwear from the red evening dress she was wearing and showed it to Conan—

Suddenly, looking at this scene, combined with the words "borrowing clothes" and "catching a cold" that the strange thief Kidd said just now, Conan's mind couldn't help but think of the scene of Xiaolan lying naked in the lifeboat on the boat at this time!

"Bastard!"

Conan was furious about this.

However, at this time, the strange thief Kidd also took out the "dark star" and threw it towards Conan-

"By the way, I'll give up this gem first. I remember telling Mrs. Suzuki that I was sorry for messing up her party......"

In this way, looking at the "dark star" that was thrown over, although Conan was very angry with the strange thief Kidd in his heart, he still had to hurry forward to catch it-

Then, just as Conan caught the gem, Kidd the Monster Thief suddenly put sunglasses on his other hand, and then smashed his free hand on the ground again.

A flashbang flashed brightly, obscuring Conan's vision and making him unable to open his eyes at all!

And when the light dissipated, and there was no longer a figure of the strange thief Kidd nearby, and he could only look at the full set of clothes worn by Xiaolan falling on the ground, Conan was resentful in his heart-

"Damn! Or let him run! ”

So, ignoring the garden where he had passed out, Conan picked up the pile of clothes and ran towards the deck of the cruise ship, where the lifeboat was kept.

At this time, the police officers who were searching for the traces of the strange thief Kidd on the ship because they received an order from Nakamori Ginzo, several of them also searched for the vicinity of the lifeboat.

Among them, there was a sharp-eyed police officer who noticed Xiaolan, who was lying in a sleepy lifeboat at the moment, so he said to the police officer next to him in surprise:

"Hey! There's a girl sleeping on top of a lifeboat! ”

In this way, as soon as these words came out, the police officers on the side also gathered around, looking at Xiaolan who was asleep on it at the moment, all the police officers unanimously judged:

"Let's get it first."

Lying on the lifeboat and sleeping, no matter how you think about it, I don't feel very safe.

So, several police officers worked together to get Xiaolan off the lifeboat.

And at this moment, Conan, who was running wildly with the clothes left behind by the disappearance of the strange thief Kidd, heard the words of the police officers, and all of a sudden, Conan thought that the girl they found was Xiaolan, and at the same time remembered the statement of the strange thief Kidd and Xiaolan's clothes were now in his hands, Conan accelerated his pace and ran away in a hurry, shouting in his mouth:

"Ahh Wait a minute! ”

- If you take Xiaolan out like this, then ......

Thinking that Xiaolan should be naked now, Conan was anxious!

However, after the police really rescued Xiaolan, seeing that Xiaolan was still wearing a red evening dress, Conan, who was running anxiously, suddenly fell into surprise-

looked at the clothes in his hand, as well as the same style on Xiaolan's body.

Conan figured it out at once-

Since the strange thief Kidd is targeting himself so he is dressed as Xiaolan, then obviously he must have investigated in advance and knew what Xiaolan would be wearing today, so he prepared the same style in advance!

He deliberately said that to himself just now, just to make himself anxious!

Kidd, the abominable thief!

……

"Huh? What, that Xiaolan at that time...... Is that Kidd the Thief? ”

After this incident, when Conan told everyone about the strange thief Kidd, the garden, who woke up because of the anesthetic needle, learned that Xiaolan, who was trapped behind him at the time, was actually the strange thief Kidd pretending, and the garden couldn't help but look a little regretful-

"It's a pity that I didn't see the true face of the thief......"

"However, the 'Pitch Black Star' has already been dropped, I really didn't expect it. Fortunately, it was eventually recovered. ”

And in this regard, Gao Yuan focused on this matter-

Actually, I also told the strange thief Kidd in advance about this, but I didn't expect him to steal the real thing directly, so that the one on Mrs. Suzuki has always been a fake......

However, in order to cooperate with his judgment of misleading Conan, the person who deliberately knocked out the box in Mrs. Suzuki's hand in the chaos was actually Takato himself......

Thinking so, after regretting it, the garden taught Conan a hard lesson for the fact that Conan had judged her to be the strange thief Kidd, which made Conan really unable to refute.

In this regard, Xiaolan, who woke up, helped Conan to persuade the garden and let him dissipate his anger-

"After all, Conan is just a child......"

In this way, Xiaolan explained to the garden.

However, looking at this scene, Xiaolan's attitude and Gao Yuan's mind were a little dignified-

After all, it's ...... that really needs to be worried about right now.
