Neighbor, Open Up-I'm Here to Bring Warmth!

"Hello..."

Fujino glanced at Hakuba Saguru's current appearance and couldn't help but swallow hard. "Are you alright?"

"It's nothing, how could anything be wrong with me?"

Hakuba Saguru revealed a wicked smile, "The one who should be in trouble is Kuroba Kaito."

Fujino: "..."

Oh no, this child is going to go mad!

He's already showing signs of going astray.

No, it's more accurate to say they've gone mad with their cultivation.

Fujino reached out and patted Hakuba Saguru on the shoulder. "I advise you to calm down."

"I know!"

Hakuba Saguru a deep breath. "But how am I supposed to stay calm...?"

"You and I are both detectives."

Fujino, like a friendly older brother, comforted him, saying, "There are many unexpected things like this in this world. It's precisely at times like these that a detective must not let emotions cloud their judgment."

"Thanks..."

Hakuba Saguru nodded, calmed himself down, and managed to regain his composure.

He thought Fujino was right.

Detectives should indeed always remain calm...

On second thought, he felt that Fujino was becoming more and more like a detective mentor?

They were both High School Detective, just like each other.

"Let's discuss the plan."

Fujino changed the subject, saying, "Now that we know his identity, dealing with him is much simpler."

Fujino felt that rather than being passive, it would be better to be the one to propose the solution.

Hakuba Saguru will definitely take action after learning Kuroba Kaito's identity.

He was quite willing to watch the two bicker, mainly for entertainment.

But we can't go too far, or Douzi will be in big trouble.

That kid still owes him a lot of favors.

"Since he is Kaito Kid, we can let him reveal his identity himself."

Hakuba Saguru thought for a moment and then suggested, "Tomorrow... no, today at school, I'll invite him to come and watch the operation to capture Kaito Kid. As long as Kaito Kid doesn't show up, he'll definitely slip up."

At this point, Hakuba Saguru said eagerly, "Then we'll be able to catch him directly!"

"Let's do it your way."

Fujino stole the operation plan, nodded, and offered no comments.

Then, in the blink of an eye, the next day arrived.

Fujino and Hakuba Saguru slept together at the research institute.

When Hakuba Saguru got up in the morning, he made a phone call and asked an elderly woman with gray hair to bring him his school uniform and take him to school.

After Hakuba left, Fujino got into the convertible sports car he had just received the night before and sped away from the research institute.

However, he did not intend to go to Teitan High School.

The car was heading towards Egutian.

He planned to go directly to Jianggutian and bring some warmth to his fellow villagers...

Yes, I promise I won't take a single needle or thread!

Ekoda High School.

Kaito!

Nakamori Aoko went to Kuroba Kaito's seat and shouted.

Kuroba Kaito asleep, was startled awake by the noise.

He looked up and glanced at Nakamori Aoko's large face, then said resentfully, "Aoko, what are you trying to do by making such a fuss so early in the morning?"

How dare you say that!

Nakamori Aoko complained, "You've been snoring non-stop since class started, it's so noisy! The first class is already over, if you keep sleeping like this, you'll probably turn into a sleepyhead!"

"You're so long-winded!"

Kuroba Kaito clicked his tongue.

What do you mean he's sleeping like a pig? He's catching up on sleep!

He'd been stealing for days on end and hadn't had a proper night's sleep!

"Splash!"

Hakuba Saguru suddenly opened the classroom door, his eyes red and swollen with dark circles, and stared at Kuroba Kaito.

Although Fujino told him to calm down, how could he possibly control himself?

The thought of Kuroba Kaito Kid to play with him, and then coming to school the next day as if nothing had happened, made him feel extremely uncomfortable.

In his opinion, the kid was just playing him for a fool.

"Huh?"

Kuroba Kaito glanced at Hakuba Saguru and noticed his unusual behavior.

After all, Hakuba Saguru's current appearance, he was starting to wonder who hadn't been sleeping well these past few days.

This guy... could it be that he had insomnia because he couldn't catch me last night?

Thinking of this, Kuroba Kaito secretly felt a surge of satisfaction.

"Hakuba Student!"

Nakamori Aoko turned around in surprise and said, "It's rare to see you late..."

"It seems our detective didn't get a good night's sleep last night!"

Kuroba Kaito joked, "If you ask me, it's probably because he's 'overworked' from not catching Kaito Kid, right?"

"Hmph."

Hakuba Saguru sneered, his gloomy gaze sweeping over Kuroba Kaito, and said meaningfully, "He's still far from being as good as you."

"Ah?"

Kuroba Kaito was taken aback by Hakuba Saguru's words, sensing there was something more to them. Without thinking too much about it, he perked up and continued teasingly, "But compared to the Great Detective, I'm full of energy!"

That's good.

Hakuba Saguru stared intently at Kuroba Kaito: "Perfect timing, I'd like to invite you to the Oshima Art Museum, which KID mentioned in the last trailer, tonight."

As he spoke, he stepped forward and tried to provoke him. "However, if you have any reason why you can't come, that's fine too."

Kuroba Kaito frowned upon hearing this.

He naturally saw through the other party's provocation.

But why is this guy trying to provoke me?

Kuroba Kaito somewhat puzzled.

As he pondered, a bold idea suddenly came to him.

Has this guy figured out that I'm Kaito Kid?

However, he quickly put that idea out of his mind.

"In that case, I shall respectfully comply!"

Kuroba Kaito laughed, "Perfect, it'll also let me see your Great Detective's famous deductions!"

"They want to go too!"

Nakamori Aoko nearby, also became interested. "I also want to see the scene of Kaito Kid being arrested!"

"You bastard..."

Kuroba Kaito looked at Aoko speechlessly. "An idiot like you would only cause trouble if you went with us!"

"Who are you calling an idiot!"

"Of course it's you..."

Kaito!

"Hehehe!"

Hakuba Saguru at the two bickering and gave a slight smirk.

They finally took the bait!

Keep performing.

Let's see if you'll still be laughing when you get double-teamed by me and Fujino!

On the other side, at the entrance of Ekoda High School.

"I understand, Teacher Hiratsuka... That's right, another leave of absence... Yes, yes, it's to deal with Kaito Kid. I didn't expect you to guess that... I understand!"

Fujino stood at the school gate, phone in hand, and asked Hiratsuka Shizuka for leave.

After hanging up the phone, he looked up and glanced at the Ekoda High School in front of him.

After a moment's thought, he turned around, took a bag of rice and a can of soybean oil from the trunk of the Ford Mustang parked by the roadside, and then walked to the gate, greeting the old gatekeeper warmly. "Grandpa, open the gate, I've come to bring warmth to my fellow villager!"
