Conan: Science Cartoonist Kudo Yuji

Chapter 138: Fight you quickly...

"Hey! I went to Nakamori's house to look for it, but Miss Qingzi isn't here!"

Yuji rushed into the entrance, saw Kaito sitting there holding his forehead, and kept shaking his shoulders: "Where's your house? Have you looked for it yet?"

"I've looked for it! There's nothing on the first or second floor."

"Does your family have a secret room or tunnel?" Yuji stamped the floor and pointed at the wall.

Kaito looked at the floor. At this moment, he already knew where Aoko was, but his hands were clenching and opening involuntarily. He probably didn't know how to face Aoko.

"She's right where you put your uniforms and props, right?" Yuji took out his phone from his pocket, switched the private system and handed it to Kaito.

"Oh! There are so many good things here!"

This stuff is out of tune again...

Yuji punched Kaito on the head, then pointed to the photo album: "Look for yourself."

Kaito opened the album and saw that there was only a single video in it, he clicked it and turned the volume to the maximum.

【"No matter which one you cut, I have no objection." "No matter what happens, I will never leave you alone again."】

Kaito looked at the girl in the video, her face was complicated but also relaxed.Frowning on his face, he hesitated.

"What does it matter? She has seen it. Do you think you can still hide it?"

Yuji pulled up Kaito and kicked him on the backside: "Go, find her, and tell her that you are Kidd. You can kneel down, do whatever you want, and ask her to forgive you."

Gritting his teeth, Kaito nodded and rushed to the second floor, while Yuji kept looking for Chikage Kuroba's number in the contacts.

.........

The moment he wiped the full-body portrait of Heiyu Pirate with a dry cloth, the sound of the machine turning suddenly came from behind the portrait, and then stopped abruptly.

Just when Qingzi was wondering, the portrait suddenly flipped, and the girl was photographed into the passage behind.Behind the portrait is a slide, after several turns, Qingzi finally landed on a sofa chair, holding the dry cloth that just wiped the painting in his hand.

"Where is this place? Why is there such a strange place in Kaito's house?"

Just as the girl wanted to get up, she saw a light on one side of the wall lit up, from above her head to the end of the wall, illuminating the right side of the secret room extremely brightly, and she could see a record player at the end.

On the shelf on the right side of the secret room, there are some small balls with metal shells, playing cards, plastic objects of unknown purpose, and common cosmetics.

"Kaito also likes to put on makeup." Aoko picked up a bottle of lotion: "This is... that very expensive brand!"

A scene of a boy who stayed up late at night and ran to the secret room to put on makeup in front of the mirror suddenly appeared in the girl's mind.

Feel so perverted...

Qingzi turned her head to look to the left, there was another light, a white classic car parked there quietly, staring at her in a daze.

This car, I seem to have seen it in my father's notes, is... Kaitou Kidd's...

How could it be, Kaidou couldn't possibly...

Probably because he saw Kidd's car, he asked someone to modify an identical one, but it couldn't be driven, so he kept it in a secret room.That must be it!
Qingzi walked over slowly, put his hand on the car door, heard the record player at the end of the secret room clicking, picked up a record and started playing it.

"Long time no see, Kuaito."

This voice is...Uncle Kuroba's voice?

"Kaito, next I will tell you my experience as a magician. First of all, do you know what is the most important thing for a magician?"

Aoko put her hand to her mouth, thinking carefully about what Kaito had said about magic in front of her before.

"I remember it was... poker face?"

The record did not give an answer. At the moment the machine stopped running, a cabinet suddenly rose from the black and white ground, and the door of the cabinet opened automatically in front of Qingzi, inside was a dummy wearing a Kidd suit.

.........

Standing in front of the full-length portrait of his father in his room, Kaito looked at the portrait of Kaitou Kidd, and was even more sure that Aoko had entered the secret room.

He took a deep breath, gently placed his hand on the portrait, pushed it, and got into the passage.

The moment Kaito disappeared into this room, Yuji happened to rush in with his phone in hand.

"Oh! Next is the critical moment to decide the third generation of the Kuroba family!" Yuji looked at Kuroba Chikage on the screen, and both of them became excited: "Aunt Chikage, let's make a bet!"

"What are you betting on?" Kuroba Qianying sat on the sofa, looking at the camera of her husband's portrait on the computer, and turned her head to glance at Kuroba Toiichi who was drinking tea.

"Let me think about it..." Yuji walked slowly to the portrait: "If I win the bet, I'll ask that gentleman uncle to have a chat with his son in person."

The teenager turned the camera to face himself: "They haven't seen each other for a long time, haven't they?"

"Okay..." Heiyu Pirates' voice came from outside the camera: "Even if your aunt loses."

"Huh?! We haven't bet yet! I just lost."

Mrs. Kuroba's regretful tone made Yuji reconfirm that this aunt and his mother have the same personality.

Speaking of which, the two of us are really alike...

Yuji put his hands in his breast pocket, adjusted the position just enough to expose the camera, and then followed Kaito's example and entered through the passage.

Why do you have to turn so many corners!
Yuji did not slide down freely, but controlled his body and moved down bit by bit. He pricked up his ears and heard a voice coming from below.

"Qingzi!"

Kaito slid down on the sofa, and kept looking around the secret room. On the ground were Kidd's uniform and the hang glider that had been deployed. Behind the car, Aoko's clothes were slightly exposed, which made Kaito loose tone.

He walked around the car and saw Qingzi sitting on the ground with his head buried in his knees. He didn't know what to say.

"You... have seen it all."

"What do you mean? The props in this room are still Kidd's clothes."

Aoko's voice was terribly cold, making Kaito at a loss. He squatted on the ground, looking at the girl he liked with complicated eyes.

"I…"

Pursing his lips, Kaito wanted to shake the girl's hand, but she slapped him away.

"You've always been like this, watching your father want to catch Kid so much and laughing at his clumsiness."

Qingzi raised his head, his eyes were full of tears, and asked stubbornly: "And every time I protested against Kidd, you always treat our father and daughter as a joke, right?

Dad, since Uncle Heiyu passed away, he has always told me to treat you as his own son. "

Qingzi's voice choked up: "Last time he saw Kidd's face looks like yours, he believed in you more than me..."

Yuji sat on the sofa, listening to the two of them silently, he was guessing at the reaction of the Kuroba couple on the phone at this moment, and also thinking about how to find a way out for Kaito.

"Qingzi..."

"I really don't know what to do, Kaito, you are Kidd."

Qingzi buried his head again: "I really don't know how to face you. If Dad talks about Kidd again, what expression should I use to face him..."
