Chapter Fifty-Nine
Arriving in Kanagawa in a hurry, I stopped a car and arrived at Tottori Road. Just as I was about to open the door, I saw Yukimura walking over.
It was almost dark at this time, and the sun had long been out of sight. Yukimura was a little surprised when he saw Murong standing at the door and about to open the door.
When I saw Yukimura, I was also stunned, then smiled and said hello.
"Yukimura-kun, you came back so late!"
Yukimura raised his hand and shook the convenience bag in his hand.
"Help mom go out and buy some things. Is there something wrong with Murong returning to Kanagawa so late?"
It was fine if I didn't ask, but I felt depressed again when I asked. I had just had two days of leisure, and that kid Kidd came over to interfere again. So I replied angrily: "I'm back to catch the Phantom Thief!"
"Catch the Phantom Thief? What Phantom Thief?"
Seeing Yukimura's puzzled look, I asked strangely: "Don't you know? That guy from Kid clearly said that he wrote the notice on the back of the photo! You should have seen it at this time." Didn't they? Discovered? In that case, wouldn’t they still know that Kidd is coming?
"Hey, Yukimura, when did you give my gift to Yagyu-kun?"
"At noon today!"
I frowned and thought for a while, then continued to ask: "Then did he open it?"
"Not at that time. What's wrong? Is there something wrong?" Yukimura asked with concern when he saw that my face was not good.
I hesitated for a moment and finally told the truth.
"The gift I gave Yagyu-kun was some signed photos of famous detectives and police officers, one of which belonged to Kaitou Kid. However, not long ago, Kid sent me a text message saying that he attached a trailer to his photo. Letter, he will steal the photo at twelve o'clock."
"Is there such a thing?" Yukimura opened his mouth in surprise.
I nodded, took out my phone and showed him the text message. After Yukimura read it, he still felt a little incredible. It took him a long time to come back to his senses.
"Then, you came to Kanagawa just to catch Kaitou Kid?"
"To be precise, I'm here to stop him! It's the police's business to catch the Phantom Thief."
Yukimura suddenly smiled and said, "Then can I go with you? I'm also very curious about Kaitou Kid!"
"It's no problem if you go and see him! Anyway, he's such a cool guy and he's not afraid of people watching..."
"Then I'll come find you later!" Yukimura waved to me after saying that, and walked directly into the house without waiting for my reply.
I blinked, shrugged, then took out the key and opened the door and entered the house.
After eating, I packed my things and looked at the time. It was eight o'clock. At this time, Yagyu should have seen the notice letter behind the photo! But considering his hostility towards me, it is very likely that he would put the gift away. Put it aside without opening it. If that's the case, it's okay, maybe Kidd stole it and he won't find out. But if he finds the notice letter and informs the police, it will be a big trouble. I can already imagine myself being taken to the police station and being questioned in this way...
Just when I was thinking wildly, the doorbell rang. I walked over to open the door and saw Yukimura and Norika standing at the door.
"Sorry, Ji Xiang heard that she is going to see Kaitou Kidd, so she must come with her..."
Although Yukimura said something apologetic, there was no apology expression on his face at all. The smiling look made people feel that he brought Norika here on purpose. But forget it, the mentality of a little girl like Norika I can understand it to some extent. Anyway, that Kidd guy is a monster thief. He only steals things and doesn't hurt anyone, so it doesn't matter if he goes and takes a look.
I went into the house and picked up the things I had packed a long time ago, and then set off with Yukimura and Norika who looked excited. Although it was still early, that guy Kidd might have been waiting there, and he was in disguise.
The strong point!
The three of us quietly sneaked near Yagyu's house under the cover of night. I took Yukimura and Nooka to hide in a corner, then turned around and said to them: "You guys hide here and don't make any noise. I'll go out to investigate the situation."
"
They looked at each other and nodded at me. I looked around carefully. There was no trace of the police in the hidden corner. It seemed that Yagyu had not notified the police. I gave Yukimura and Norika a wink and signaled them
Wait here for me to come back. Then I quietly walked under the wall of Yagyu's house alone.
I first looked around, then looked up at the wall, jumped up, turned over like a partridge in mid-air, and flipped lightly into the yard of Yagyu's house. The movement was clean and neat enough to make Yukimura and Norika stunned.
Ji Xiang turned her head to look at her brother in disbelief and asked with her eyes: "So Senior Murong is so powerful!"
Yukimura glanced back at her and said that it was also the first time for him to see her.
When the two of them looked towards Yagyu's house again, they found that Murong had appeared at the window on the second floor. They saw her carefully avoiding the light and clinging to the shadow on the wall.
While paying attention to the movement around me, I slowly put my ear against the wall and listened to the sounds inside. After making sure it was safe, I quietly looked inside through the window. The layout of Japanese houses is relatively fixed.
The second floor is basically a room for children. And most of the parents live on the first floor for convenience. When I looked in from the window, as expected, I saw Hiroshi Yagyu, and I also saw a child among a group of people.
The gift box that has been opened. However, Sanada and the others are all here, which makes me a little surprised. Since they are all here, it means that they should all know about the notice letter, so why is it that only Yukimura doesn't know?
He glanced at the lighted window with some doubt, turned over, and quietly fell back into the yard.
Yukimura and Norika stared at the figure in the shadow under the window with wide eyes. Fortunately, Murong was wearing white clothes, which made it easier to identify. If he were black, he would probably only be able to see a blurry figure from such a distance.
The shadow! And from that angle, even if he saw it accidentally, he would probably think it was because he was dazzled. Before they had time to sigh, the two of them saw a flash of a figure. Murong, who was motionless under the window just now, suddenly disappeared.
It was as if no one had ever been there.
Ji Xiang rubbed her eyes vigorously and found that Senior Murong had really disappeared. Yukimura also blinked hard, and when he looked again, there was still nothing. When he was confused, he suddenly heard a suppressed sound from Ji Xiang on the right.
exclaimed. Then a hand appeared out of thin air, lying in front of him. Turning around, he found that Murong had appeared on his left side at some point, and stretched out a hand to cover Ji Xiang's scream.
mouth, one hand making a silent gesture to them, and a pair of silver monocles on his eyes.
"Shh, keep your voice down!" I said in a voice that only the two of them could hear.
Seeing Ji Xiang come to her senses and nodded, I let go of my hand.
Ji Xiang looked at me in surprise, pointed to the window, and lowered her voice and asked: "Senior Murong, weren't you still here just now...how could you...?"
"Well... Well, I move faster so I'm not easily discovered!" I hesitated and found a reason. There is no such thing as internal force in Japan. Even if I told them it was Qing Kung, they would understand it in a while. No, I simply didn’t explain. I turned to look at Yukimura.
"Hey, Yukimura, did you have a conflict with someone from the tennis club?"
Yukimura was stunned for a moment, then asked with a smile: "Why do you think so?"
I frowned and told him everything I saw. Then I said thoughtfully: "If everyone in the tennis club knows, there is no reason not to tell you, the director! And even Sanada helped them hide it. With you."
"Yes! Isn't my brother always very good with the people in the tennis club? Why didn't he tell his brother anything about this incident?" Ji Xiang also felt something was wrong.
I thought about it and said, "I can understand other people's words. After all, I asked Yukimura to deliver the gift. It's natural for them to be suspicious of it. However, even a selfless person like Sanada is carrying it. It’s a bit incomprehensible for Yukimura to do such little tricks..."
Yukimura smiled and said, "Maybe Sanada has his own ideas."
I nodded. "Probably!"
He raised his hand and looked at his watch. It was almost eleven o'clock. Why hasn't Kidd come yet? Or is it that he had already set up an ambush at Yagyu's house? If that's true, that would be terrible.
The winter night was very quiet. Except for the occasional late returner walking by and the evening breeze blowing from time to time, the only sound left was the breathing of the three of us. Another gust of wind blew by, and Ji Xiang couldn't help but shiver. I shrank my body inward. I naturally took off my coat and put it on her body. Before I let go of my hand, a large piece of clothing was covered on my body. When I turned around, I saw it was Yukimura. I helped Jixiang put on her coat, and then handed Yukimura's coat back to me. Yukimura frowned at me and didn't answer. I pointed to the lighted window on the second floor and said, "Kid, it's so late. There has been no movement, which is a bit abnormal. I want to go take a look again, but it is inconvenient to wear it like this."
Yukimura looked at me seriously, and then slowly took the coat.
I raised my hand and pressed a small button carved with a decorative pattern on the side of the monocle. The lens added an infrared function, which allowed me to see things clearly in the dark. I looked around the hidden corners and found no special circumstances, so I ducked out of the way. , disappeared from the eyes of Yukimura and Norika again.
I jumped into the yard, looked around first, and found that there was no one on the first floor. Were Yagyu's parents not there? Then I jumped up to the second floor and looked through the window. Everyone was still sitting there, staring at the box.
Everything seemed normal, but I just felt like something was wrong. Could it be that kid’s text message was just to play a trick on me? If it was really them, then what were they doing here?
When I was wondering, Sanada, who was sitting there facing the window, reached for the tea cup in front of me. Suddenly an idea flashed in my mind. It turned out to be this! No wonder Kidd had been silent, it turned out that he had laid out the plan a long time ago. I wanted to rush in, but suddenly the lights went out, and everyone in the room suddenly panicked.
"What's going on?" Akaya Kirihara was the first to shout.
"Why did the lights suddenly go out?" Nioh Masaharu.
"The probability of power outage is 36%, the probability of power outage is 40%, and the other 24%." Liu Renji.
"Is it a kid?" Marui Bunta suddenly shouted loudly.
The room suddenly became quiet.
"Everyone, don't move around. I'm going to turn on the lights." Yagyu said and stood up carefully.
Because of the effect of my glasses, I could clearly see what was going on inside from outside the window, so when Sanada took advantage of the lights out and reached out to get the photo, I opened the window and rushed in without hesitation.
Yukimura and Norika only saw the lights go out, a figure flashed on the window, and Murong disappeared from sight again. Then there was a sound of fighting in the room. When the lights in the window came back on, the window had been opened.
