Chapter 82 I suddenly want to eat roasted pigeon
“Xia He?”

Kuroba Kaito turned around, his expression showing a hint of surprise.

However, after only a moment, the surprise on his face was replaced by relief, “The code I carefully conceived was indeed cracked by you.”

“Give me a week’s advance notice. It would be difficult not to crack it, right?” Xia He said.

“So, are you here to stop me?” Kuroba Kaito said with a smile.

“I just came to remind you not to go too far, like…blowing up a substation or something like that.”

“Have you guessed this?” Kuroba Kaito blinked, then backed off a few steps toward the edge of the rooftop. “But I’m sorry, it’s too late for me to stop.”

After saying that, he pressed the button in his hand.

boom–!
The explosion suddenly sounded.

And just when the entire Osaka Castle became pitch black, the security door behind Xia He was suddenly kicked open.

“Kaito Kidd, I must expose your true identity today!” A figure rushed out from the door and shouted at Kuroba Kaito.

“Did you bring any helpers with you?” Kuroba Kaito raised his eyebrows.

His lenses seemed somewhat reflective under the light of the fireworks.

“I said I don’t know him, do you believe it?” Xia He spread his hands.

“Of course I believe it.” Kuroba Kaito grinned, “But I don’t have time to continue entangled with you now.”

At the moment when the power went out just now, he had already used a telescope to capture the location where the police hid the eggs.

You have to know that there are only a handful of places with independent power supply these days.

Therefore, after the substation was destroyed, the only place with lights on, apart from the hospital and some restaurants, is an inconspicuous warehouse building.

So, without any hesitation, Kuroba Kaito jumped down from the top of Tsutenkaku Tower.

The hang glider then unfolded and soared in the air as gracefully as a egret.

Seeing this, Xia He sighed slightly.

He originally planned to fly with Kaito, but someone suddenly appeared behind him, so he had to give up.

“Damn it!” A frustrated voice came into my ears.

Xia He turned his head and took a look, and felt that the man looked particularly familiar.

But the next second, the other party turned on the flashlight and spoke first: “Are you Xia He?”

“Who are you?” Xia He asked puzzledly.

“I am Zhufu Jingguang.”

“what?”

His eyes widened suddenly.

With the help of his super night vision ability, Xia He immediately looked at the other person’s appearance carefully.

His face looked like he hadn’t washed it for days. Not only was his beard untidy, his skin had also become much darker, and he had dark circles under his eyes and long, unruly hair…

If he hadn’t said the name, it would have been difficult for Xia He to associate this face with the name “Zhu Fu Jingguang”.

“How did you become like this?” he blurted out subconsciously.

“What have I become?” Zhu Fu Jingguang asked back in confusion.

“Uh, nothing. I mean, what brings you here?”

“It’s a long story… Let’s go chase Kaito Kidd first, and we’ll talk while we go.”

……

It turned out that in order to prevent the Black Organization from following the clues to find his family, Morobushi Keimitsu had resigned four years ago and became a detective. He opened a detective agency in Tennoji District, Osaka, but usually there was no business coming to the office.

And because he was not famous, the Suzuki Group naturally did not invite him to help.

It was he who got the news from Date Kou and knew that Kid had sent a warning letter to the police, which led to his collision with Xia He on the Tsutenkaku Tower.

“Get in the car quickly.” Zhu Fu Jingguang ran downstairs, opened the door of a car and shouted to Xia He.

Upon hearing this, Xia He immediately sat on it, and the two of them drove in the direction where Kuroba Kaito left.

On the way, Zhu Fu Jingguang steered the wheel, trying to find a topic to talk about. “I’ve been following you recently, for example, the ‘Mountain Villa Hidden Head Case’ and the ‘Pretended Suicide Case’. Your ability to solve cases is much better than that of a serious detective like me.”

“No, I was just lucky and happened to find the clue.” Xia He was a little humble. “Actually, my current job is the owner of a chain of milk tea shops under the Chunxia brand. If you are in financial difficulty, you can come to me. I have recently opened more than ten new stores and I am in need of store managers…”

“If I really can’t do it, I will definitely ask you for help.” Zhu Fu Jingguang replied.

Right now, he still has two things to do.

One is to continue investigating the Black Organization with the identity of a detective.

The second is to find out who Kidd is who saved his life.

……

About half an hour later.

The car drifted around the corner and stopped under the building.

However, Kuroba Kaito had already snatched the egg from the police and escaped from the scene using a hang glider again.

Seeing this, Zhu Fu Jingguang quickly stepped on the accelerator and continued to chase.

……

boom!
There were faint sounds of gunfire coming from the distance.

After turning several streets, the two arrived near the pier. As soon as they got off the car, they saw Conan also rushing to the scene on a skateboard.

“Where is Hattori Heiji?” Xia He asked.

“He fell off his motorcycle. I called an ambulance for him and he should have been sent to the hospital by now.” Conan replied.

“Then his cycling skills are quite poor.” Xia He concluded.

Conan: “.”

“Hey, Xia He, look over there.” At the same time, Zhu Fu Jingguang pointed to the roadside.

Xia He and Conan looked in the direction of his finger – a broken monocle, a smashed wooden box, an intact egg of memories, and an injured pigeon lying on the ground, twitching slightly.

“You all heard the gunshots just now, right?” Conan asked.

Xia He and Zhu Fu Jingguang nodded.

“Then judging from the situation at the scene, Kidd… was probably sniped while flying in the air.” Conan said, picking up the glasses on the ground, “and the lens was shot through by a bullet.”

“But there is no blood on it, and there is no body at the scene…” Zhu Fu Jingguang said: “That means Kidd has most likely escaped safely.”

“But who fired the shot?”

Is it the police?
Or is it the security of the Suzuki Group?
Or… is it some other thief who wants to seize this Egg of Memory?
They both began to think.

Only Xia He looked at the pigeon on the ground at this moment, and then suddenly said: “I suddenly feel like eating roasted pigeon.”

Conan: “?”

“Let me take this pigeon back for treatment.”

As he spoke, he quickly stepped forward and held the pigeon in his arms.
