Chapter 1268 A Boy Named Kuroba Kaito
Chapter 1268 A boy named Kuroba Kaito...
High school detective, Kudo Shinichi.
In addition, there is another identity, that is, the elementary school student living in Maori Kogoro's house-Edogawa Conan.
Kuroba Kaito first noticed Conan when he planned to steal the black star of the Suzuki Group. In order to disguise himself as Maori Ran, he investigated Maori Ran's interpersonal relationships in advance.
At that time, he felt that this Conan was different from other elementary school students.
Later, in the process of stealing the egg of memories, he disguised himself as Officer Shiratori and overheard the conversation between Conan and Dr. Agasa.
After the case was over, he disguised himself as Kudo Shinichi and personally verified in front of Maori Ran that "Kudo Shinichi" was not dead as rumored by the outside world, but had a reason for not being able to show up.
So far, Kuroba Kaito has basically confirmed that Edogawa Conan = Kudo Shinichi.
Although he doesn't know how a high school student becomes an elementary school student, after all, everyone has a different way of living...
But why is he changing back now?
What's going on?
…
At this time, Dr. Agasa was also confused, his mind seemed to be watching a wonderful tennis game, switching back and forth between the two people on the left and right.
After a while, he decided to take the initiative to ask the young man who was standing at the door of the toilet and eavesdropping on their conversation.
"Um, may I ask who you are..."
"Doctor!"
Kudo Shinichi showed a stern expression as if facing a great enemy, and suddenly shouted: "This person is the 'Kudo Shinichi' who appeared in the Beika Mall before!"
"What?!"
As one of the few people with whom Kudo Shinichi could discuss the progress of the main line, Dr. Agasa immediately thought of the attack on Officer Chiba that Conan told him about last time.
"Catch him!"
Kudo Shinichi raised his hand and pointed, and the doctor was slow for 0.5s at first, then his eyes became serious, and his fat body rushed towards Kuroba Kaito.
However, Kuroba Kaito's body skills were not something that ordinary people could catch. He slightly staggered to the side, and Dr. Agasa missed.
Seeing that these two people wanted to catch him, Kuroba Kaito turned around and ran out without explaining.
Seeing this, Kudo Shinichi did not want to miss the opportunity. He ran to the urinal in the toilet, opened the cover of the watch-shaped anesthesia transmitter, and aimed the crosshairs at Kuroba Kaito who was running out.
Hit!
Whoosh——
A tiny flying needle passed through the air and chased the back of the person in front.
Kuroba Kaito, who was running on the narrow road between the toilet and the washroom, had no way to avoid it, and the anesthesia needle just hit him in the back of the head.
"Huh?"
Kuroba Kaito suddenly felt something stung on the back of his head, and subconsciously reached out to touch it.
However, the drug took effect quickly, and a strong sense of dizziness flooded into his brain.
In less than 1 second, his steps began to become disordered, his two legs drew a circle in the original place uncontrollably, and the whole person "plop" fell to the ground.
"No way..."
Kuroba Kaito, who was lying on the ground, still tried his best to crawl out, but his consciousness gradually weakened.
In the gradually blurred vision, the door of the men's toilet in front was less than 2 meters away from him.
As long as we can get to that place...
As long as we can...
The footsteps in his ears were getting closer and closer, and Kuroba Kaito tilted his head and closed his eyes completely.
...
At the airport exit, Qin Zhibo was looking down at his phone, previewing the information of each London hotel.
Although the young master Kuroba wanted to cover all the expenses for this operation, considering that if it was too extravagant, he might be criticized by the adults of the Kuroba family for cheating children.
Therefore, Qin Zhibo planned to find a moderately priced hotel.
But after a rough look, the price of hotels in the center of London is not cheap, and the double room is about 200 to 300 pounds per night.
If it is a little remote, it is too far from London City Hall, and it may not be convenient to move.
Well...
It's better to wait for the sponsor to come back before making a decision...
Qin Zhibo just put away his phone, and a familiar voice came from the crowd standing in front of the railing to meet the airport.
"Why haven't Conan and the others come out yet?"
Another hoarse voice answered in Japanese, "Why are you in such a hurry? There's still about half an hour before the plane lands, right? It'll take some time to go through security, how can they come out so soon?"
A gentle female voice asked in confusion, "Dad, the airport broadcast just now said that the flight Conan was on has landed, didn't you hear it?"
"Ah? Did the flight arrive early?"
Hearing this familiar voice and the conversation mixed with a certain death god's pronoun, Qin Zhibo's body suddenly shuddered.
He looked up and saw a thick and long "horn" in the crowd of people waiting in front of him.
That's... Maori father and daughter!
Qin Zhibo recognized the backs of the father and daughter at a glance. One was wearing a pink and white striped short-sleeved shirt + pink shorts, and the other was wearing a blue-gray suit.
The key is the horn on the top of the head that is tilted upward at 45 degrees. Unless it is a unicorn cosplayer, it is also a very unique shape in the world!
Damn!
Why are they here?
And from the conversation between the father and daughter, the god of death also came along?
The sudden change made Qin Zhibo feel a little guilty, and he subconsciously looked around. Fortunately, he did not see a primary school student with reflections in glasses staring at him not far away.
Qin Zhibo dragged his and Kuroba Kaito's suitcases with both hands and moved slowly backwards.
When he retreated to a certain distance, he dragged the suitcase and moved quickly towards the toilet.
As he moved, he thought in his mind.
It's so scary, Conan is here...
The "scary" Qin Zhibo thought was not scary for himself.
But for the whole of London, Conan is really a scary existence.
London, which was originally calm, will inevitably set off a bloody storm because of Conan's arrival...
But the question is how did Conan come to London?
He only has Kudo Shinichi's passport, and he can't pass through customs at all.
Did he ask Dr. Agasa to forge a passport?
I didn't expect that Dr. Agasa, who has thick eyebrows and big eyes, would also break the law...
No.
It seems that he has already broken the law...
Qin Zhibo sorted out his thoughts in his mind and came to the toilet door unknowingly.
He parked the suitcase at the door of the men's toilet, ready to go in and fish Kuroba Kaito out and leave quickly.
By the way, how can a young man like Kuroba Kaito go to the toilet so slowly?
Is it because no one is at home, and he is secretly rewarding himself?
Qin Zhibo was thinking about teaching Kuroba Kaito a lesson later that "lust is the first hurdle for young people", but he heard the conversation of two people behind the wall of the bathroom.
"Shinichi, is this okay? What if someone comes in to ask about it later?"
"It's okay, just say he is carsick and close his eyes to rest for a while..."
"But I am a little worried now that this guy didn't bring a suitcase in, which means he should have a companion nearby... Doctor, go outside and see if there are such people nearby, especially a foreigner with golden curly hair."
"Oh."
Footsteps came from the toilet.
Qin Zhibo heard that it was not good, so he quickly put on the [Magic Ring], picked up a suitcase with one hand, and entered the invisible state.
An old man with gray hair and beard came out of the toilet, passed by in front of him with a big belly, and walked out of the toilet.
In the moment of passing by, Qin Zhibo recognized that this person was Dr. Agasa.
The young man who was talking in the toilet could only be Conan...
No, it was Kudo Shinichi!
Although Dr. Agasa has always called Conan "Shinichi" in private, the young voice in the toilet just now was obviously not Conan's voice, but more mature.
Considering that Conan does not have a passport and cannot go abroad, the only legal way to go abroad is to change back to his original identity.
And Huiyuan Ai happened to have a temporary antidote in her hand.
In an instant, all the clues pieced together a complete picture in Qin Zhibo's mind.
No wonder Huiyuan Ai suddenly planned to live in Chengshi's house. It turned out that Dr. Agasa and Conan came to London.
This kid didn't tell me when he came to London.
The key is that he didn't come early or late, but came when he could collide with me.
But I can't go out at this time, because once I go out, I will expose my collusion with Kaito Kidd.
But fortunately, Kuroba Kaito doesn't have any equipment of Kidd on him now, and the evidence is in the suitcase...
But before this idea fell, Qin Zhibo's face suddenly shook.
Not good!
Kuroba Kaito's passport is still on him!
…
At the same time, Kudo Shinichi in the bathroom propped up the young man who looked like him against the wall, making him look like he took the initiative to sit here.
He moved closer and stared at the young man's face carefully.
Although he looked a little similar to himself at first glance, if you look closely, you will find that...
He really looks alike...
At this moment, Kudo Shinichi's eyes were incredible. He couldn't believe that there was really someone in the world who looked almost exactly like him.
The previous Makoto Yada had plastic surgery. Could this one be the same?
He reached out and pinched the other person's face and nose. The skin was firm and elastic, and the nose was normal.
It was a real face...
Who is this person?
Until now, he still couldn't believe that this person was the young man who appeared next to "Brother-in-law" in the Mika Mall before.
Because from Tokyo, Japan to London, England, it spans tens of thousands of kilometers, and it was a chance encounter in the same men's bathroom at the same airport. The probability is really too low.
It was even less likely than picking up a Japanese elementary school student's homework book in this toilet...
But the problem is that such a low probability and ridiculous thing actually happened in front of him.
He was sure that this person could not have followed him all the way across the ocean, because the expression on his face was also very interesting when the toilet door opened.
The most important thing now is to find out the identity of this person.
Kudo Shinichi first fumbled in his trouser pocket, and then reached into the inner pocket of the young man's denim jacket.
A few seconds later, he took out a wallet and a passport.
Opening the wallet, there was a bank card and a stack of brand new banknotes that had just been exchanged.
Kudo Shinichi himself was also a rich second generation, and had no interest in the money. He directly put the wallet back and opened the passport, which was the most important thing.
The identity page of the passport shows a person's most basic identity information.
Surname...Kuroba
First name...Kaito.
Nationality...Japan
Gender...Male
Date and month of birth...1979/6/21
So young?
Kudo Shinichi squinted slightly and stared at the numbers above. This guy who looked similar to himself was born more than a month later than himself.
Kuroba Kaito...
At this time, Dr. Ali came back from the toilet and reported: "No one seems to be waiting for him outside..."
"Yeah?"
Kudo Shinichi frowned, because according to his reasoning, this young man's companion should be nearby.
And if he is really the person next to "Brother-in-law Man", maybe that companion is Brother-in-law Man.
The police had previously released wanted portraits across the country. If it followed the organization's style, they might have arranged for Brother-in-law Xia, a member of the organization, to come out and hide.
Of course, it is also possible that the brother-in-law went abroad on his own.
But no matter what, this person named "Kuroba Kaito" will be an important clue to break through the organization in the future.
"Doctor, go to the sink outside and get some water."
"Water? What do you want to do?"
"I'm going to wake him up."
"Wake him up?" Dr. Ali was a little confused. "If I wake him up, won't he run away?"
Kudo Shinichi shook his head, "No, he can't run away. His passport is still in my hand."
He shook the passport in his hand and put it into his small bag.
But as soon as he pulled up the zipper of his schoolbag, his body suddenly trembled like a stress.
Immediately afterwards, my body felt an inexplicable coldness, and a lot of cold sweat broke out on my forehead.
Oops!
Why did it happen at this time...
Kudo Shinichi clutched his chest, knowing that the effect of the antidote was about to wear off and he would soon turn back into Conan.
Dr. A Li also noticed something strange about him and quickly asked with concern: "Is the drug's effect time about to end?"
"Well... I'm really unlucky." Kudo Shinichi gritted his teeth and said forcefully.
"What should we do?"
"It's still the same as the original plan. After I change back later, it will be up to you, doctor, to talk to him..."
Dr. A Li nodded, "Yes, yes...but the time we made an appointment with Xiaolan and the others has also come."
After being reminded by Dr. Agasa, Kudo Shinichi finally remembered that he was here for a trip, not to promote the main story.
But if we miss such a good opportunity to advance the main plot, we may never come across it again in our lifetime.
But it is impossible for me to keep such a big living person with me at all times without being discovered by Xiaolan...
Kudo Shinichi, whose head was already smoking, looked at the face similar to his own, and his eyes suddenly lit up.
There is a way!
…
Um?
what? chilly……
When Kuroba Kaito slowly opened his eyes, he saw an elementary school student wearing glasses and an old man with gray hair standing in front of him.
The two of them stared at him from a horizontal angle and from a downward angle.
"Who are you……"
The haze in his vision gradually faded, and he finally saw the faces of the two people clearly.
One is the old man in the toilet door just now, known as Dr. Ali.
The name of the elementary school student next to me is Edogawa Conan.
Oh no.
It's Kudo Shinichi!
Happy International Labor Day!
