Chapter 252 Guardian Knight
"Liars! They are all liars!" A passerby rushed to the camera and shouted loudly, with a ferocious face and spittle flying everywhere.
"Seriously, it's too much to do this kind of prank!" The woman with a serious expression pushed up her glasses and accused with great dissatisfaction: "I hope the person who did all this can be more mature in the future."
The reporter's microphone was put in front of a bald man again, but before she could speak, she was roughly pushed away by the man.
"Go away! Don't make me beat you!"
People who have always been polite in street interviews now seem very irritable. The late silencer "beep——" will sound from time to time. Some people may even end up with only one or two words in a long string of words.
.
"Master, is that the place you went to before?" Terai Huangnosuke asked while wiping the wine glass.
"Ah~ and I met that guy from Kitahara again, and he let him off in the end..." Kuroba Kaito was originally lying on the table watching TV, but now he couldn't help but sit up and get closer, frowning and staring at the TV.
The castle was being shrouded in flames, and he said: "It's strange, that place is obviously real gold, what kind of plastic paper can fool the eyes of a monster thief like me?"
He stared at the TV carefully, but unfortunately by the time he noticed it, the news had reached the end, and almost all the plastic paper around the castle had been burned away. Kuroba Kaito could only see some dark traces of burned plastic.
, it switches to the next news.
"It seems that the mountain road was blocked for a long time in the morning because of a collapse or some other reason." Terai Huangnosuke watched the news earlier than Kuroba Kaito, and he understood the situation in more detail, so he guessed:
"Could someone have swapped the gold during that time?"
"This possibility cannot be ruled out, but..."
Kuroba Kaito frowned.
For such a magnificent castle, all the gold on the outer wall was replaced in less than a day. What a huge amount of work is this? Even though he is the famous Kaitou Kidd, he wants to do this
The thing is, just relying on him and Mr. Terai is not enough, even if you add their very useful props.
To support this kind of miracle, there must be extremely huge manpower and material resources. Especially considering that Kitahara Sosuke solved the code only last night, then all this is even more amazing.
At this moment, Kuroba Kaito thought of a lot, such as the ubiquitous cameras in the castle, the sudden disappearance of Ogami Zhushan, the maid with a low sense of presence, and the tragic story from forty years ago...
"Grandpa, please help me check the information about the Twilight Hall, including the details of everything that happened in that castle forty years ago."
Terai Huangnosuke saw that the boy had begun to hide various equipment on his body, and hurriedly said: "Master Kaito, are you ready to go to the castle now?"
"Yes!" Kuroba Kaito turned around and transformed from an ordinary high school student into a monster thief so gorgeous that he attracted the attention of the world. Even his voice changed unconsciously: "In the face of this kind of deception of the world,
How can a magic show be complete without the appearance of the Phantom Thief?"
Terai Huangnosuke said excitedly: "Yes, young master!"
Ahhh, even though he is already sixty years old, whenever he sees the same gorgeousness and uninhibitedness of the two generations of the Kuroba family, he still seems to be back to the dreamy teenagers he once was, no matter how old he is.
, they are all the same young people.
However, before Kuroba Kaito left the house, he received a phone call. Terai Kinosuke watched as his young master, who was still very ambitious at the beginning, became visibly depressed after seeing the phone number.
But he didn't refuse to answer the phone because of this, and instead quickly answered the call.
Terai Huangnosuke became curious and quietly pricked up his ears.
"Hey, hey, hey! You want my help again... Let me first count how many bottle caps are left..."
At first, Kuroba Kaito was joking and joking, but then his expression became serious and his eyes darkened slightly.
"...It is indeed very simple. But...Kitahara, you..." Kuroba Kaito looked ahead, but his eyes had no focus, as if he wanted to see the person on the other side of the phone through a distant space: "Should you
Are you asking me to help you create an alibi?"
The task of pretending to be Sosuke Kitahara, having dinner in a certain restaurant, and then going to a large supermarket with surveillance to buy something is naturally very simple, but Kaito Kuroba always felt a strong sense of déjà vu.
feel.
Yes, some criminals seem to do this when creating alibi, but they can't find a master of disguise like Kaitou Kidd to help, so they always leave loopholes of one kind or another, which become the basis for police detection.
clue.
But if you get involved yourself...
Kuroba Kaito is very confident that unless he surrenders himself to the police, this alibi cannot be broken.
Although Kaitou Kidd has always been a wanted criminal on the police list, Kuroba Kaito does not want to be an accomplice in a murder case, let alone someone he considers a friend to become a criminal.
Therefore, at this moment, his attitude was serious and resolute, and his tone even seemed a little heavy.
The next few seconds were very quiet, so quiet that the young man felt a little uneasy.
Then, he heard someone chuckle.
"I know what you are worried about, Kaito. Don't worry, I have to deal with a criminal organization. These guys are very powerful, have strong assets, and have deep connections in all walks of life. So I need you to help me prove,
When something happened to their organization, I was thousands of miles away to avoid being locked into my true identity by these guys."
The person on the other end of the phone was not angry or dissatisfied at all because he questioned him. He just explained in a gentle and sincere tone, which made the originally tense Kuroba Kaito feel embarrassed. He thought of the person who would pop up to talk to him from time to time.
A mysterious organization that does the right thing, and I feel very close to Kitahara Sosuke.
Wait... Could it be that organization that Sosuke Kitahara is targeting?
Kuroba Kaito hurriedly asked: "Is the organization you mentioned looking for the legendary gem 'Pandora'?"
"Pandora?" Kitahara Sosuke seemed a little confused. He repeated it, thought for a moment, and said, "No, as far as I know, they have been researching and developing some kind of drug."
"Drugs...that shouldn't be the case." Kuroba Kaito felt a little regretful.
"how?"
"It's nothing. I'll tell you slowly when I have time." Kuroba Kaito took back the Kaito's equipment and said, "By the way, have you seen the news about the Twilight Hall? Do you think we saw it too?
Is gold all an illusion?”
"Illusion? Of course not." Kitahara Sosuke's voice sounded like he was laughing: "The gold is right next to me!"
"Huh?"
"We don't have much time. I will tell you in detail when I get back."
"All right."
After hanging up the phone, Kuroba Kaito scratched his hair and asked the smiling old man next to him: "Grandpa, are there any remaining disguise materials I left here last time?"
……………………
Kaminodong put down the phone and sighed deeply.
Although his young master did not admit it, he always felt that something must have happened to the young master during his years abroad. Otherwise, why would he always hold on to that organization?
The old man was very worried, but there was nothing he could do.
However, if my child has such a good character, even if he makes a mistake, it must be the other person’s fault.
While thinking about the touching story of "Don't deceive young people into poverty", Kaminodong followed the young master's instructions and sent the whole family out.
So a few minutes later, some of the people went to buy groceries, some went to walk the dog, some went to repair their cars, and some went to the gym. But Kaminodong himself drove to the dry cleaners to pick up the clothes he had delivered two days ago.
I brought back a few pieces of clothing that I had gone to dry cleaning - they were just ordinary things that they would do every day, but today they were more focused on it.
……………………
Night falls.
The originally quiet village has completely fallen silent at this moment, but the forest seems to be a little more noisy than during the day. Insects chirp, birds chirp, frogs chirp one after another, and the animal forest makes rustling sounds, which can occasionally be heard.
Or a long or roaring sound.
Kithara Sosuke, who had been lying in the grass for a long sleep, also sat up, patted the weeds on his body, and returned the clothes "borrowed" as sheets and quilts to the scarecrows, leaving only the exquisitely woven hat.
A straw hat. When he stood up from among the scarecrows, the people in black in the distance did not notice that there was an extra person here.
After being on guard for most of the day, these men in black were also very tired. There was no one else around at this moment, so everyone relaxed a little, flexing their hands and feet or sitting in the car to rest. Some people also ran to the public toilets in the village to solve their physical problems.
"The news just came from the bottom of the mountain. Almost all the tourists have left, and the police have returned to the police station." Ishihara Aki said while holding the walkie-talkie.
Rum glanced at the sky and said, "Notify everyone to prepare. We will set off in ten minutes."
"yes."
Ten minutes later, the convoy set off on time and quietly left the small village. Shortly after descending the mountain, it turned onto a fork in the road, avoiding those who were still determined to find gold.
Although this trip took a long time, the process was very smooth, and everything was as planned. Thinking of the wealth that seemed to fall from the sky on several trucks, Rum smiled unrecognizably, and he lightly touched it with his fingers.
Tapping his knees, he began to plan the use of the money in his mind.
I didn't expect that the boss's family would actually leave him such a large fortune... The organization's infiltration work in certain foreign countries has not been very smooth. With this gold, all the hardships can be easily solved... Well, still
Where is the laboratory? How many materials and instruments can I buy...
The intercom in the car suddenly thought——
"That... Boss Rum?"
Rum recognized that it was the voice of one of his subordinates. The hesitant tone was very different from his usual way of speaking.
Rum was in a good mood at the moment, and his tone was very gentle. After getting through, he asked: "What's wrong?"
"That...I don't know if it's my imagination...I'm not sure..." The subordinate laid the groundwork vaguely for a while. When Rum began to feel impatient, he hesitated and whispered: "I, I
