Inspector Nakamori held up his Camera, about to photograph the man and issue a wanted notice based on his appearance afterward.
But when he saw Phantom Thief Kid's face clearly, he froze and forgot to press the shutter. "Y-you are...?!" ...Why did he look so much like that kid from the Kuroba family next door?
Kid: "!!"
He gritted his teeth and suddenly flicked his Wristwatch. A light even more dazzling than a searchlight burst from its face. The officers' vision blurred, and for a moment, they could not see their surroundings clearly.
Then several tapping sounds came from the nearby window.
Kid turned to look and saw Mist Tengu hovering outside, somewhat clumsily using a Glass Cutter to cut a large hole in the glass. He tossed the shards into the exhibition hall and silently beckoned to him.
Of course, Jiang Xia had not brought a burglary tool like a Glass Cutter with him. But there had been spares in the tool bag Kid had hidden nearby. When he came down earlier, he had casually brought one along.
Seeing that someone had come to help him, Kid's eyes lit up. He abandoned his originally complicated escape route and raised a hand toward Inspector Nakamori.
Then he hurried toward the window.
The few meters vanished in an instant. As Kid jumped out the window, he noticed that Mist Tengu seemed to want to say something but held back.
But the officers whose eyes had been dazzled inside the exhibition hall were gradually recovering their sight.
Mist Tengu glanced at them, fell silent for a moment, then grabbed Kid and flew back to a place without any police.
"Where's Kid?!"
"...Don't know."
"Ah, over there! That window is broken! When did he cut it? Does he have an accomplice?!"
