Conan: The Second Personality of Kaitou Kidd

Chapter 422 Time flows at different speeds

The hand passed Bai Shui's wrist without any trace, and pressed back the hand he had stretched out.

Hattori Heiji was talking to Kuroba Thief and had to look directly at the other person, so he didn't pay much attention to the hand that happened to hold down Shiro Sailor. However, he noticed something subtle. He answered with a slight hesitation, and his eyes quickly dropped. He glanced at Conan and briefly expressed his question: Did your father discover Kaitou Kidd?
After just a quick glance, he moved his gaze up again, as if he had just looked around meaninglessly, and once again had a conversation with the gentle but vaguely oppressive Black Feather Thief.

Conan was facing a formidable enemy and stared closely at Kuroba Toichi. He quickly thought about why his father knew that he had become smaller and that the 'Kudo Shinichi' in front of him was by no means his own son but a Kaitou. In Kidd's case, he seemed to be holding on to his opponent tightly and not letting go.

Can't we pass this level first and then arrest Kaitou Kidd?
There were almost subtitles written on his face.

...Of course it's because this guy is not Kudo Yusaku at all, but Kuroba Toichi.

A father died carelessly for nearly ten years, and a son didn't even realize that his father's account had been hacked. Not to mention, in a sense, this temporary father and son were a perfect match, a pair of loving father and filial son. Father and son.

Bai Shui closed his eyes, retracted his hand, glanced sideways at Black Feather Touichi's profile, and then immediately looked away.

Kuroba Toichi had finished fooling Hattori Heiji in an understatement, and spared a few seconds to deal with Nakamori Ginzo and Mouri Kogoro, saying, "I have some ideas about how the Phantom Thief will appear, but it needs to be verified, so I will go with him in advance." Shinichi came to visit and chatted, and then walked to the showcase with his arms around Shirasui's shoulders.

There was a large crowd, and there was an obstructive line between the showcase and the crowd, so that the crowd could not reach out to touch the showcase and could only watch from a distance.

Probably because he sensed that Bai Shui's tolerance level was rising and was about to reach the peak of his endurance, and that he might suddenly break free of his restraints at any time, turn around and escape into the crowd, the black feather thief pressed his hand tighter on his shoulder.

He stared at the deep black in the exhibition cabinet in front of him, with a smile on his lips, and the first thing he whispered was: "Don't worry, I won't reveal your little secret to Kaito."

After saying that, he paused for a few seconds and asked apologetically, "Shouldn't I tell you that you still have secrets that you are hiding from Kaito?"

Under the incandescent lamp, the glass display case is almost invisible. The dazzling white light shines on the black diamond in the center of the display case, emitting wisps of imperceptible colored light on the hard surface of the diamond rhombus.

This is a 'nightmare'.

The 'Nightmare' was very close, but Bai Shui had no intention of taking a closer look. As the distance got closer, he instead lowered his eyes and glanced back, towards Nakamori Ginzo and Maori Xiao, who were chatting with each other very well. Goro also glanced at the trio of Maorilan who were looking at them thoughtfully.

His gaze focused on Mao Lilan's frowning expression.

Hearing Black Feather Touichi's words, Bai Shui reacted for a few seconds before suddenly reacting.

And almost at the same time he reacted, he heard Kuroba Kaito's faint sneer, "I knew it."

"Did the two things 'You admire Kudo Shinichi' and 'You have secrets from me' be announced to the world? How come everyone knows about it!"

Isn't this too embarrassing?
But it’s not unexpected at all…

The former was guessed by Kuroba Kaito himself, and the latter was already something he was used to.

Rather than this thing that he secretly cared about and thought about for a long time, 'Let me think about it, after cracking the secret, what do I want this guy to do to coax me?', he now cares a little more: "We can't watch 'Nightmare', "

You may get tricked if you look at it. If you fall asleep in the classroom, there is a chance that you won't be discovered, but if you fall asleep in an exhibition in broad daylight, it will be the end.

Although Black Feather Thief is here, no, it's because of Black Feather Thief's presence that we need to be even more vigilant. Maybe after they fall into a nightmare and coma, they will be packed away somewhere.

"But could you please stop looking at Miss Mori?"

Kuroba Kaito said: "She is very cute and beautiful, but she has a boyfriend. I warn you, you may get beaten."

Baishui: "."

Sorry, he looked at Mao Lilan, and it was related to the 'secret' that Black Feather Thief just mentioned.

He felt guilty, so he only responded to Kuroba Kaito, then looked sideways at Kuroba Toichi, "What do you want to do?"

Kuroba Toiichi was very patient. He didn't push him for a few seconds after he finished speaking and Bai Shui remained silent. He carefully appreciated the 'Nightmare' like a diamond lover. Hearing this, he replied calmly: "I want to help." You come to the rescue."

"They will come today," he said, his eyes also glanced back, and he said 'them', but he only glanced at Conan emphatically, "I guess there is a high probability that you will encounter an unexpected accident."

"It seems I came just in time."

He spoke very righteously, amiably, and very friendly, as if he were talking to a human being.

Kuroba Kaito was silent for a few seconds when the words were spoken, and then slowly said a question word, "Huh?"

What kind of nonsense is this that dogs shake their heads in disbelief?

In Kaito Kid's form, Kuroba Kaito is a handsome and elegant Phantom Thief who can easily win the hearts of girls. In Kuroba Kaito's form, he is a very popular guy in school, but he is often frustrated by his childhood friends. The two characters in the two states are different, but they are both their true selves, but they show different sides.

According to Kuroba Kaito, Shiraizu can speculate that the same is probably true for Kuroba Toichi. He must also be different when he is Kaitou Kid and Kuroba Toichi as a magician. Kuroba Toichi in the magician state may be an elegant A gentle, considerate and considerate gentleman, but as everyone knows, he died in a blazing fire, and the only one who survived was the identity of the Phantom Thief.

It might be quite easy for Kuroba Kaito to deal with the Kaito Kuroba Thief. After all, they are biological father and son, with the same blood flowing in their bodies and the same emotions resonating in their hearts, but it would be a bit difficult for Shirasui. .

He paused for a moment, and waited for Kuroba Kaito to finish shaking his head before he spoke, no longer entangled, and simply changed the topic, "You are pretending to be Mr. Kudo, does he know?"

"Well," Kuroba Toichi showed a thoughtful expression, smiling and throwing the question back, "You are pretending to be Kudo Shinichi, does he know?"

Bai Shui spoke quickly and in a low voice, "First of all, I am not pretending to be Kudo Shinichi."

There was no trace of the disguise technique on his face, it was Kuroba Kaito's original face.

"I see," Kuroba Toiichi showed a clear expression and sped up his speech in a decent manner, "Secondly, I am not pretending to be Kudo Yusaku."

There were no traces of the disguise technique on his face. It was clean, with just a little beard. It was the original face of Kuroba Toichi.

Baishui: "..."

The Black Feather Thief raised his eyebrows and asked knowingly, "What's wrong? Are you angry?"

He couldn't help laughing and replied politely: "I don't know now, but I don't care."

Kudo Yusaku doesn't know that Kuroba Toichi is disguised as him, but if he knows, he won't care.

"Just like you are now."

Just as Bai Shui is now disguised as Kudo Shinichi, he didn't know it at first. After knowing it, he didn't have time to care about it, because he didn't care about it more than "Kaitou Kidd, you hacked your account again!" ! ! 'More important things.

Bai Shui understood, so he said again: "..."

To be honest, do you think it's weird that you two father and son copy and paste...

And something was wrong, Kuroba Pirates explained it too quickly.

He is not a person who is willing to be frank. On the contrary, he is a person who has a rather bad taste and enjoys fishing. To explain so quickly, there is a better explanation than his sudden outpouring of kindness: he is fishing.

And if he can use this question as bait to fish, what he is actually fishing for is: "What is your relationship with Mr. Kudo?"

Shirasui and Kuroba Kaito have studied this issue, but to no avail.

He himself is not very curious. Anyway, even if Kudo Shinichi is really Kuroba Toichi's biological brother, he has nothing to do with him and cannot solve any of his troubles.

But Kuroba Kaito must be curious.

When he is curious about something, he most likely wants to explore it. But when he cannot find it for a while, he will scratch his head and expand his mind to enter the stage of bold imagination.

Whitewater will be the first victim.

So even though he saw the fishhook that Kuroba Pirates was swinging towards, and saw the silver cold light on the fishhook, after hearing Kuroba Kaito's suspicious and interested tone, he still bit the hook without changing his expression. .

Biting decisively, Black Feather Bandit laughed again. He stretched out his hand to push the black-rimmed glasses on his face as if he was not used to it, and asked: "What do you think?"

"Do you really want to hear it?" Bai Shui saw Kuroba Toichi smiling and nodding, and based on the fact that "Kaitou Kid calls Kudo Shinichi brother", he guessed at random without blinking, "Biological brother."

The black feather thief raised his eyebrows.

"Kudo Shinichi is your brother, or Mr. Kudo is your brother, or Mrs. Kudo is your brother, or Kuroba Kaito is your brother, or Mrs. Kuroba is your brother," Shironizhui said without changing his expression, speaking very quickly. He calmly said a series of pronunciations for 'brother', and felt the hands on his shoulders loosen a little without stopping. He made random guesses based on the chaotic relationships that often appear in detective novels. "Kuroba Shinichi's surname is Kuroba, Kuroba Kaito's surname is Kudo, you and Mr. Kudo are the same person, and Mrs. Kudo and Mrs. Kuroba are two victims,"

He continued speaking calmly and without any ups and downs, without stopping, very smoothly: "Sister-in-law, open the door, I am my brother, I really am my brother."

"'I'm sorry, Mr. Kudo, I mistook you for my husband that day.' 'You didn't want to be discovered either, right?"

As he said this, Baishui paused, temporarily stopped counting the dirty relationships in the vulgar detective novel, and thought for a few seconds.

He was thinking: He said it wrong, it shouldn't be 'Mr. Kudo'. If you just cross the lines between these four adults, it should be...

Black Feather Thief smiled.

It might be an angry smile, it might be a polite smile, or it might be the disdainful laugh of a normal thief after hearing about the classic chaotic relationship in a third-rate detective novel. In short, when he laughed this time, he didn't seem to be smiling.

Bai Shui looked at it and said back, "What's wrong? You're angry."

"No," Black Feather Bandit smiled and shook his head, "You guessed it right, they are biological brothers."

He was calm and composed, not at all aware that he was telling nonsense that no dog would believe. Instead, he seemed to be giving a speech calmly and repeated: "Mr. Kudo and I are biological brothers."

He pretended to think for a few seconds and said, "Is Kaito's surname Kudo and his name is Kudo Kaito, or is Shinichi's surname Kuroba and his name is Kuroba Shinichi? Forget it, it's quite strange to change your son's surname. And Kaito is probably very fond of your idol, so you should all have my last name."

But after thinking for a few seconds, he decided seriously, as if he hadn't said what he just thought about, and said seriously: "Actually, Shinichi's surname is Kuroba, and his real name is Kuroba Shinichi."

"As for why my surname is Kudo now..."

After thinking for a few seconds again, Kuroba Toichi said calmly: "Ah, Mr. Kudo and I are actually brothers from the same father and mother. It's just that our parents divorced. We each had an adult, and our surnames were also changed, so the surname different."

"I took my father's surname and still had my original surname, and he took his mother's surname and changed it to Kudo. So, in fact, both his and Shinichi's surnames were Kuroba," he smiled and stroked his hands, deeply impressed by his own smoothness. Echoing logic convinced, "This is it."

Baishui: "..."

When you make it up...

Kuroba Kaito: "..."

Can you not say it...

"Probably it's because of the blood relationship deep within the body," Kuroba Thief pushed up his glasses, talking more calmly and calmly, "That's why you particularly like and care about Shinichi when we just met him not long ago. "

"That's the wonder of blood."

Baishui: "..."

He understands the truth, but...

Kuroba Kaito: "..."

Can you talk about some basic rules when making up lies...

After receiving suspicious silence twice in succession, Black Feather Thief finally equipped his eyes again and looked at Bai Shui gently, "What's wrong?"

"It's such a familiar expression," he mused, and with a look of surprise on his face as if he remembered something, he asked again, "Why are you looking at Kaito with that expression?"

Kuroba Kaito: "?"

"You often show this expression when facing Kaito, although neither you nor Kaito can probably see it," Kuroba Thiouichi explained in detail, and then spoke nonsense seriously, "This is probably a sign of deep trust in your companions, Take care of your companions’ expressions.”

He even knowingly asked, "Why are you looking at me like this now?"

Baishui: "."

I understand, it’s the look on Erha’s face when he demolishes the house.

Kuroba Kaito: "Hey!"

"It's okay to tell lies with your eyes open, why are you still slandering and slandering!"

Shirasui's expression when he saw Kuroba Toichi now was definitely more subtle than when he looked at him. Kuroba Kaito was sure of it, and believed that this attempt to drag him into a lower evaluation category was really a bad slur. Behavior.

"Sorry, I can't read minds and can't hear other people's inner voices," Kuroba Toichi said lightly, "If Kaito has a problem with this, then I'm deeply sorry."

He didn't show any apology at all, and wrote lightly: "It seems that you and Kaito have gotten along quite well during this period, and you can tease others."

To strangers, Baishui would not say such a long list of petty words.

Strictly speaking, even if he knew that Kuroba Toichi knew him but had no memory, Shirasui would still have an attitude toward strangers. But it was different now. It was obvious that he and Kuroba Kaito were familiar with each other. As a result, Aiwujiwu also has a certain favorable impression of people who have no memory of themselves.

Baishui said nothing.

"However," Black Feather Pirates said, "you are still a high school student."

what?
What happened to high school students? Is it relevant to the current topic?
Very briefly, Bai Shui glanced over, and when he looked at the black feather thief, he looked away again.

"Underage high school students."

Black Feather Thief smiled, "It's better not to be a bad example."

This kind of statement is quite convincing even if it is said by the unreliable Ginzo Nakamori, but if it is said by Kuroba Pirates, Shiraisui's first thought will only be: "?"

Are you serious?

Say 'Don't be a bad person' to a Phantom Thief?
Kuroba Kaito became a Kaito, and a large part of it was Kuroba Toichi's silent promotion, right?

How could this guy say such things as if nothing happened...

Baishui was puzzled and remained silent.

He didn't argue.

The scale of not refuting what he just said was actually quite good, at least it was much smaller than the 'taboo between brothers and sisters' and 'robbing' and the like that he had heard and seen recently.

It's just stealing without any rebuttal. Saying such things is not considered a bad lesson.

He did not refute that he was not actually a minor high school student.

Putting the two worlds together, his actual age is already adult, and the flow speeds in the two worlds are different, twice as much.

The Black Feather Thief waited for a moment, but when he didn't get any response, he laughed and sighed, "It's really the same cold handling style as always. This has never changed."

"From your perspective, I'm probably a stranger or 'Kuroba Kaito's father'. I'm not familiar with you. But from my perspective, I'm very familiar with you, so familiar that even if you control your expression, I can guess who you are." What are you thinking about?"

He held the hand on Bai Shui's shoulder and patted it again, and said slowly: "You are thinking that you are not an underage high school student."

Bai Shui moved his brows and frowned.

Kuroba Toichi finally let go of his hand and stopped holding him, "Don't refute silently. Memory can be deceiving in many cases. Many people will make appropriate changes to their memories of important past events that suit their own tendencies. What's more, You still have lost your memory."

"When memories are incomplete, even seemingly certain truths are actually uncertain, such as whether you are a minor."

He blinked at Bai Shui, "Aren't you, a traveling detective living in two worlds with different speeds of time?"

　I have said before that the time flow rate in the two worlds is different, but I feel like no one remembers it after the interruption for too long...
