Two days later, Saturday.

Teidan Elementary School School Festival.

On the stage of the gymnasium, Ayumi sat on her knees sadly and cried out to Motota, who had a knife stuck in her chest in front of her, "Dad! ”

"It's really sad."

Gray Yuan Ai stood aside, wearing a white shirt, a black blazer, and a hip skirt, with a cold face and a flat mouth.

"That's because ...... A misunderstanding between father and daughter, resulting in a tragedy! ”

Mitsuhiko stretched out his hand and pointed at Yuantai, stumbling and saying, obviously with some stage fright.

“……”

Conan drooped his face, looking loveless.

actually asked him, a seventeen-year-old high school student, to act in such a naïve drama......

But then again, how did that guy in Gray Plains behave so naturally, hey!

……

After the performance, Xiaolan came backstage with a bag of drinks.

"The show just now was really exciting."

She praised as she took a drink out of her bag and distributed it to the few people who had just finished performing.

"Really, Sister Xiaolan?"

Ayumi took a bottle of peach drink and looked up at Xiaolan, looking as pure as a little girl.

"Uh-huh."

Xiaolan nodded like a big sister next door, turned her head, and asked Fujino, who came over with her, "Fujino-senpai, what do you think of their performance?" ”

Fujino, who was fishing on the side, was stunned when he heard this.

Why did you ask him about it?

This time, the drama performed by the Junior Detective Troupe is a police-themed "New Police Story".

Ai Gray Hara plays a policewoman, and the prototype seems to be Miwako Sato.

Conan and Mitsuhiko play police officers and police assistants, possibly based on Takagi and Twilight Thirteen.

And Yuan Tai plays the role of the victim president, and Ayumi plays the murderer, and her identity is the daughter of the president's family.

The daughter murdered the president's father because of an outrageous thing.

A small theater of rice flowers that I like to see.

Fujino sorted out the language in his mind, and immediately opened his mouth to give an objective answer: "The performance is not bad, and for elementary school students, it is also a good argument and reasoning." ”

"Hey, hey!"

Ayumi happily opened the drink and took a sip, "Actually, this script was written by Conan." ”

"Huh?"

Xiaolan looked at Conan in surprise: "I didn't expect Conan to have the talent to be a screenwriter." ”

"It's nothing."

Conan embarrassedly took a bottle of oolong tea from Xiaolan, "It's all thanks to everyone's acting skills." ”

"Everyone's acting skills are very good."

Xiaolan nodded in agreement and turned her head to look at Gray Yuanai: "Especially Xiao Ai, she is very engrossed, so cute." ”

"In other words, Grayyuan's acting skills are really good."

On the side, Ayumi, who was holding a peach drink, echoed with emotion, "It seems that Xiao Wai will definitely become a popular actress in the future." ”

"Popular actress?!"

Mitsuhiko glanced at Gray Yuan Ai, and his face immediately turned red.

A trance came to mind of the scene where she would become a popular actress in the future.

'I guess she's been acting all the time......

Conan showed dead fish eyes and secretly complained in his heart.

"Is it cute?"

Gray Yuan tilted his head and subconsciously turned his gaze to Fujino.

"Hmm."

Fujino nodded and groaned, looked at the suit and uniform on Xiang Gray Yuan's body, and commented: "This one is quite suitable for you, it has a mature and cute feeling." ”

“……”

There was an invisible hint of translucent red on Gray Yuan's mournful little face.

She quietly glanced at the black suit that Fujino was wearing.

Then he lowered his head and glanced at the small black professional uniform he was wearing.

Is it a feeling of maturity and cuteness?

…………

At noon,The school festival of Teidan Elementary School ended。

A few people came out of the Didan Primary School on the way.

"Then again, Xiaolan."

Fujino looked at Xiaolan and wondered, "When I went to pick you up this morning, why didn't I see Uncle Maori?" ”

"My dad, he was going to come along."

Xiaolan replied, "But the doctor's examination he made an appointment for is today, and he went to the hospital for an examination early in the morning." ”

Fujino was surprised: "Uncle Maori is not feeling well? ”

"yes."

Xiaolan sighed, "Dad, he's always felt tired lately. ”

Fujino frowned when he heard this.

I think of a Maori uncle who often goes to izakayas.

How does this symptom feel so familiar?

It can't be a void, right?

…………

Several people came to the school gate.

Fujino sat in the cab of the Ford Taurus and asked Ai Ashbara, who was following out the window, "Xiao Ai, won't you go back with me?" ”

"You go home first."

Gray Yuan changed back to his usual clothes, "I'm going to go to Dr. Asasa's house with a few of them today. ”

"That's ......"

Fujino said to Gray Yuan again: "Pay attention to safety on the road, remember to come back early later, and call me if there is anything." ”

"Hmm."

Gray Yuan nodded calmly and said softly: "You too, pay attention to safety on the road." ”

Looking at the back of Gray Yuan Ai and the departure of the Junior Detective Group, Fujino's eyes narrowed slightly.

If he guessed correctly, Ash Yuan should have gone to Dr. Asasa's house to study the antidote to APTX4869, right?

He didn't configure a computer for Gray Yuan Ai for the time being, although he had a notebook far beyond this era, but it contained too many secrets, and naturally he couldn't let Gray Yuan Ai use it.

So usually, to study the antidote, I still have to go to Dr. Asasa's.

It seems that we have to get two computers that fit this era back......

Midday.

A commercial street near Rice Flower Town, the gate of a computer city.

"Computers in this era are really expensive."

Fujino sat in the car, glanced at the three computers in the back row, and sighed leisurely.

These three big-headed computers cost him about 300,000 yen.

After the discount, it will cost more than 200,000 yen.

It is equivalent to the salary of an excellent social animal in this era.

But for Fujino, it's not much.

He went out to rob the evil and help the poor, and he earned it back.

"The Metropolitan Police Department publicly stated earlier that the warning letter released by the monster thief Kidd before has been canceled in person, and this time the cancellation of the notice is another signal that the monster thief Kidd is about to retire?"

At this moment, there was a sudden sound of emptiness outside the car window.

Fujino looked out of the car, and the source of the sound was a large screen on the top of a building not far away.

On the screen, there was a report about a blonde-haired beauty:

"Judy Hopper, the owner of the ruby and the head of the thaumaturgical magic troupe, has her own opinion on the matter, saying: 'It's a shame not to see the magic of Kidd the Monster'."

"Judy Hoober?"

Fujino recognized the woman on the big screen at a glance.

It was the bearer of that Crimson Tears that he had seen in the newspaper the other day, Judy Hoober.

However, Fujino was a little confused.

Normally, once Black Feather Kaito has his sights on a certain target, he should not give up until he reaches his goal, but now he actually canceled his own announcement......

"It seems that the advance letter a few days ago was sent by an imposter?"

Putting away his thoughts, Fujino didn't plan to meddle in his affairs and planned to drive home.

But just when he started the engine, there was a sudden system prompt in his ears:

"A new detective class mission has been detected, please pay attention to check!"

"Detective career mission?"

Fujino was surprised when he heard this, and immediately looked around.

Seeing that there were no murders around.

He waved his fingertips and curiously called up the system task interface:

[Detective Career Mission: Everyday Thief.]

Objective: Capture the thief

Reward: 300,000 yen, 50 Detective Fame]

"Is it an ordinary thief catch?"

Fujino was speechless for a while.

For ordinary thief missions, the mission reward is 300,000 yen.

For him now, 300,000 is not much.

After all, he has 10 million in his hands......

After thinking for a moment, Fujino finally took over the system task.

No matter how you say it, 300,000 small dollars is also money.

Just enough to make up for his consumption in the computer city just now.

"You guy, stop me!"

As soon as he took over the task of the system, a noisy sound was heard not far away.

Fujino followed the sound and saw that on the street not far away, Kuroba Kaito was chasing a greasy uncle wearing a gray hat.

……

"Damn, how did you find out?"

The uncle glanced back at Black Feather Kaito who was following behind him and gritted his teeth.

As an old man who has worked in Sin City for more than ten years and has not died, he is quite famous in the thief circle, even if the police come, they have to call him a thief.

He thinks he's so good at stealing that no one will find out about the theft on the street.

But today, his theft methods were exposed by a hairy boy......

This could not help but plunge him into deep self-doubt.

- Is his theft method regressive?

While thinking about it, he didn't notice that the uncle of the pedestrian in front of him bumped into the shoulder of a blonde woman.

"Hurry up and get out of here!"

In a panic, he pushed the woman's shoulder away and continued to gallop forward, not noticing that at the moment when he pushed the woman away, the loot he had just grabbed had been taken away by the woman in the same way.

"The loot has been robbed, and I didn't even notice it, I said that you are a thief who is really a failure."

When the uncle heard the sound, he looked up and saw a young man stopped in front of him.

The young man was dressed in a black suit, a black trench coat, short hair, and a wooden knife in his hand.

It's none other than Fujino.

Fujino lifted the wooden knife and smashed it at the door of the thief's uncle's face with a single stick.

"Bang!"

There was a muffled sound.

The uncle was knocked to the ground with a stick.

Fujino didn't give the guy much time to react.

He didn't know if this guy had any murder weapons or anything like that.

After all, most of the criminals he dealt with would not surrender honestly.

Before surrendering, it is common to pull out a knife, pistol, or other murder weapon.

"This skillful operation ......"

The corners of the Black Feather Kuaidou, who was following behind him, twitched.

It was also immediately recognized who the person who subdued the thief was.

It's the sworn enemy who often cheats him, Fujino.

"This young lady, can you please hand over your wallet?"

After knocking down the thief, Fujino didn't immediately greet Kuroba Kaito, but walked slowly towards the woman who had just bumped into the thief.

"Did you see that?"

The woman turned around, looking a little surprised.

The woman wears a black suit and red tie, a brown trench coat, a small hat and sunglasses.

Judging by the details of her face, she should be a mixed-race blonde beauty.

"You're supposed to be a magician, right?"

Fujino looked at the woman for a moment, and then spoke: "Just when that thief hit you, you took the wallet in his pocket in less than a second, and this kind of speed, I have only seen in a magician friend, that is a troublesome opponent wearing a white cloak who likes to do magic. ”

"Friends?"

On the side, Black Feather Kaito heard the conversation between the two and paused.

Wears a white cloak and likes to do magic tricks.

Grass, isn't that me?

But I really didn't expect this detective who often cheated and deceived him to treat him as a friend............

Suddenly, Black Feather Kaito felt a little moved in his heart.

"Kaidou! What the hell is going on? ”

Nakamori Aoko came from not far away, and after seeing Fujino, her eyes suddenly lit up, and she stepped forward and said hello: "Detective Fujino, it's such a coincidence, you are also here." ”

"Nakamori-san, Kuroba-san."

Fujino only took care of Kuroba Kaito at this time, and chuckled, "Are you guys out on a date?" ”

"Not really!"

Nakamori Aoko's face flushed, and she quickly explained, "The two of us just came out to watch the movie." ”

"Watch a movie."

Fujino nodded, "I understand, well, I understand." ”

Fujino ...... Detective? ”

The blonde woman muttered, "No wonder I was able to discover my modus operandi, it turned out to be the detective named Fujino." ”

"You know me?"

Fujino looked at the blonde woman in some surprise.

"Well, I've heard of you when I watched the news before, the dark detective who is called the Monster Thief Buster, that's the title, right?"

The blonde woman took off her sunglasses and showed her face...... Sure enough, it's a beauty.

"You're Judy Hopper, aren't you?"

Fujino recognized the woman in front of him at a glance, "I've seen you on the news before. ”

"Judy Hopper?"

Qingzi on the side was stunned when he heard this, and said excitedly: "Shouldn't you be the leader of that thaumaturgical magic troupe, Judy Hopper?" ”

"yes."

Judy Hopper nodded, took out a wallet from his pocket, and handed it to Aoko Nakamori on the side: "Here you go, this is your wallet." ”

"Wallet...... Why is it so familiar? ”

Nakamori Aoko was stunned for a moment, and then hurriedly began to fumble with her wallet.

Moments later, she found out that her wallet had been stolen...... That's when I realized what was going on.

He immediately thanked Fujino and Judy, "Thank you very much! ”

"That's right, Kaidou, she's ......"

After thanking her, Nakamori Aoko was going to introduce her to Black Feather Kaito, but before she could finish speaking, she was interrupted by Black Feather Kaito: "I know, her grandfather is James Hopper, who was once the greatest magician in Britain." ”

"You know that......"

Nakamori Aoko smiled, and then introduced Kuroba Kaito to Judy and said, "His father's name is Kuroba Thief, and he was once the first neon magician!" ”

"I know, the No. 1 magician in the East, known as the world's magic supreme......"

Judy paused, then continued: "However, he and my grandfather are just the same kind of people, and they are just cunning liars who deceive people's eyes and ears in exchange for money and fame. ”

"Huh?"

Nakamori Aoko and Kuroba Kaito were obviously stunned.

Afterwards, Aoko wondered, "But, aren't you also performing magic?" ”

"My grandfather passed away two years ago, and I had to take over this magic troupe."

Judy spread her hands helplessly, "Tonight, the Hubber Magic Regiment is going to close.

"By the way, if you have time, you three can come and have a look...... If you want to be deceived by liars like us. ”

As she spoke, she took out three tickets from her pocket, handed them to the three people in front of her, and then walked away slowly.

And Black Feather Kuaito seemed to have noticed something, and glanced at a black car on the street behind him, and was directly stunned in place.

"Kaidou, what are you thinking?!"

Nakamori Aoko took Kuroba Kaito's hand, "Anyway, thank you Detective Fujino, our movie is about to start, bye-bye!" ”

With that, she dragged Black Feather Kuaidou and turned away.

"Thaumaturgical Magic Regiment?"

Fujino glanced at the ticket given by Judy, silently put it in his pocket, and put it into his personal space.

Then he turned his head and turned on his eagle vision to look at a black car that was driving away not far away, his eyes narrowing slightly: "It seems that this time, the zoo has its eyes on Crimson Tears...... It seems that the previous teaser letter should also be that they wanted to steal Crimson Tears through the hand of Kidd, the monster thief? ”

In Fujino's impression, Black Feather Kaito, that is, the side of the monster thief Kidd, is actually being pursued by a mysterious organization.

The purpose of this mysterious organization is to snatch the legendary gem that can make people immortal: [Pandora]

Eight years ago, the former monster thief Kidd, who was the father of Black Feather Kaito, was killed by this organization.

To this day, this organization is still active.

The last SPIDER was the killer of this organization, and in addition to SPIDER, Fujino remembered that there was also an organization cadre codenamed SNAKE.

As for why it's called a zoo, it's obvious now.

It's like the winery is full of water...... Alcohol, and the zoo is full of animals (livestock).

In fact, the pursuits of the two organizations are also very similar, both for eternal life or something.

In addition to the same purpose, even the purpose of action is similar.

The winery is muffled to make a fortune, quietly dripping development, and exposing dripping don't.

The zoo, on the other hand, is engaged in animal husbandry, concentrating on chasing the monster thief Kidd to find the legendary jewel Pandora.

The two organizations are not strictly entangled in the sense of the word, and may not even know each other.

This gives Fujino, who is the sixth oldest, a lot of room to operate......

Thinking about it, Fujino's mind suddenly appeared with the plan of a certain traverser's predecessor: [Drive the wolf and chase the tiger]

Since the two organizations have similar purposes and are both secretive, it is possible that they do not know each other......

Then it's easy to get the zoo and the winery to fight.

After they fought, even if Fujino couldn't get any clues from it, he was able to make the two organizations bond with each other, and they would be hostile to each other in the future, consuming their own strength in order to deal with each other.

Now what Fujino has to do is just let both sides know the existence of the other party and create a little contradiction.
