"He wants me to pass on a message to you."

Seeing the other party's somewhat disappointed look, Koizumi Akako was also a little puzzled, but she still continued, "Tonight, Hakuba Saguru set a trap for you. As for how he discovered your identity, it's because you left some hair at the scene last night, and they detected it with DNA testing."

"Oh, so that's what it meant... That's what that guy meant."

Kuroba Kaito twitched his chin.

At this point, he finally understood what Fujino meant by being careful that guy might make a move.

It turns out it was just pulling out hair!

This guy actually used my hair to do something like that, that's outrageous!

So that's why!

Seeing that Kuroba Kaito was deep in thought and didn't seem to care about the matter, Koizumi Akako said seriously, "Don't go to the Oshima Art Museum with Hakuba Saguru today. It's a trap he set. You might really get arrested!"

"Forehead..."

Kuroba Kaito paused for a moment, then continued, "Why shouldn't I go to the art museum with that guy?"

"Why do you all like to play dumb..."

Koizumi Akako naturally knew that Kuroba Kaito would never admit that he was Kaito Kid.

It seems I have no way to persuade the other party to stop.

Fortunately, she had already hired that detective beforehand...

But why does it feel a bit unreliable?

And the plan wasn't told to her either.

Okay, let her try making another prediction after school.

If all else fails, she'll disguise herself as Kaito Kid to break the deadlock.

"What do you mean by pretending to be confused?"

Kuroba Kaito continues to play dumb.

He can keep his identity Kaito Kid.

It was achieved through a shameless refusal to admit anything.

Although Koizumi Akako did discover that he was Kaito Kid.

But he did admit it...

The other party couldn't do anything about it.

"I'm not going to care about you anymore..."

Koizumi Akako sighed as she looked at Kuroba Kaito's state, then turned and left.

To be honest, she found it a bit of a headache that these two people were both inexplicably stubborn and pretending to be stupid.

"Wait a moment!"

At that moment, Kuroba Kaito called out to Koizumi Akako.

"You've changed your mind?"

Koizumi Akako turned around, her expression softening somewhat.

Hmph, as expected, her words still carry some weight.

"I mean, you should be able to give me what you have now, right?"

Kuroba Kaito stared at the rice, soybeans, and oil in Koizumi Akako's hand. "That girl texted me when she arrived to tell me she was here, and said something about bringing warmth. Those things must be for me, right?"

Koizumi Akako: "..."

I'm getting really angry!

The similarity is outrageous.

I feel like we're related by blood!

Could it really be my older cousin?

Are rice and soybean oil really that precious?!

But then again, text messages?

Thinking of this, Koizumi Akako frowned. "You have his phone number?"

"Yes..."

"Give me!"

"Why do you need his phone number? Wait, sigh!"

Kuroba Kaito was left speechless with despair as the witch forcefully snatched his phone, along with his phone number.

"Hmph!"

Koizumi Akako gripped her phone and let out two cold, grumbling laughs.

How dare you make fun of me, Koizumi Akako!

Prepare to face the witch's revenge!

"How did Fujino manage to provoke her?"

Kuroba Kaito, feeling somewhat apprehensive.

It's true that everyone in the class except him liked Koizumi Akako.

Look at this witch...

What heinous thing has Fujino done?

Thinking of this, Kuroba Kaito didn't dare to ask for the bag of rice anymore.

In a daze, I wanted to draw a cross in front of my dear cousin and mourn him.

"Um?"

Hakuba Saguru, who was yawning and about to buy a cup of coffee, happened to pass by. He frowned when he saw the cute girl with a scary expression on her face while carrying rice and soybean oil, plus the combination of Kaito Kid gesturing in front of her.

On the other side.

As dusk settled, the curtain of the setting sun fell.

Fujino took advantage of the afternoon to visit the Oshima Art Museum.

The Oshima Art Museum has four floors in total, or five floors if you include the small attic space on the top floor.

By this time, the police had already begun deploying their forces at the Oshima Art Museum, with numerous police cars parked nearby.

In Fujino's view, it seemed more like a murder had occurred.

Hey! You guys over there! Go over there!

"That's right, that's right!"

Leading the way was Nakamori Ginzo, who was directing many police officers in uniform to set up the scene.

"Brother Fujino!"

Turning around, Nakamori Ginzo noticed Fujino and went up to greet him warmly.

"Brother Nakamori!"

Fujino greeted him warmly, as if they were really brothers.

"By the way, bro, Kaito Kid's announcement was for 9 PM, why are you here so early?"

Nakamori Ginzan asked Fujino with a puzzled look, "Did you come here to help set up the plan to capture Kaito Kid?"

"No."

Fujino smiled and waved his hand, "I just came to check out the situation and familiarize myself with the environment. The specific arrangements will still depend on you, Nakamori-nii!"

"Haha! Not at all!"

Nakamori Ginzo laughed, taking it as a joke, "If we're talking about professionalism, you're the real professional. Even though I've been chasing that guy for over a decade, I'm only slightly better than you!"

After a round of mutual flattery, Nakamori Ginzo had a very good impression of Fujino.

He helped him defeat the Kaito Kid on several occasions.

He was arguably the most admired talent among High School Detective.

Kudo Shinichi's much better than that Hakuba Saguru, whose father is his boss, and who just randomly fires guns.

What's more, they're even willing to call him "brother"!

"It's Detective Fujino!"

"Is he also here to deal with Kaito Kid?"

"Go and interview them quickly!"

"What are your thoughts on Kaito Kid?"

"Will the police let Kaito Kid escape tonight too?"

"Mr. Fujino, how do you evaluate the fact that the police were twice allowed to escape by the Kaito Kid?"

"As an advisor to the Criminal Investigation Department, isn't your interference in the affairs of the Economics Division overstepping your bounds?"

"Are you also here to help the police plan the capture of Kaito Kid?"

Before the two could exchange more than a few words, a large group of female reporters, drawn by the scent, arrived with their photographers and surrounded the two of them.

Kaito Kid is definitely the current top-tier (T0) in terms of traffic, plus Fujino, who is at the T1-T2 level. Isn't that the secret to his popularity?

"Ahem."

Fujino was used to this kind of scene. He cleared his throat, put his hands in his pockets, and began to cast a spell.

Mori Detective Agency.

"Fujino- Senior is on TV again."

Ran sat in front of the TV, watching the news interview and murmuring, "I didn't expect that my Senior would have to take action against Kaito Kid again this time!"

"Belch!"

Mori Kogoro was standing nearby, let out a burp. "As expected of my Mori Kogoro!"

"Dad!"

Ran gave Mori Kogoro a reproachful look. "You've already met your drinking limit today!"

"Hey, let me have another bottle!"

"Da Mei!"

"Ha ha..."

Conan sat to the side, watching the two of them being a loving father and son, and laughed without getting involved.

"Kaito Kid, are we going to the Oshima Art Museum today?"

He turned back to look at the television screen, his eyes slightly narrowed.

In his view, Kaito Kid must know something about the organization.

With Fujino present, things should be much easier for him to get things done.

In other words, there is now an opportunity to get close to Kaito Kid.

Without Fujino the first two times, he didn't know how to get started.

This seems like a great opportunity to have a talk with Kaito Kid.

Surely that guy wouldn't just kick him out, would he?

No way, no way!

Conan thought about it and felt that this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

So he stood up, intending to sneak away.

"Well?"

Ran grabbed Mori Kogoro by the collar and turned to look at Conan in surprise. "Conan, where are you going?"

"Hahaha!"

Discovered, Conan gave an embarrassed smile, made up an excuse in his mind, and then turned and ran out of the detective agency. "Ran- neechan, I'm going to Professor Agasa's house, I won't be back tonight!"
