Chapitre 230: Chapter 230: Memories Egg
Senichi was counting his gains and entering dreamland.
Although it was already late at night, police cars were rushing in groups with their sirens blaring, chasing after something.
Inside a high-rise apartment, Ayumi had just finished watching a vampire movie on the TV and entered her room. She climbed onto the bed, turned off the bedside lamp, and closed her eyes.
But before she could fall asleep, the wind seemed to blow through the balcony's clothes rack, catching Ayumi's attention on the balcony curtains.
She got up and went to open the curtains, pushing open the balcony's French window.
In front of her eyes stood a white silhouette on the balcony railing.
Wearing a white top hat and a white suit, with a cloak trailing behind gently swaying in the breeze, bathed in the moonlight.
"Who are you? Mister Vampire?" Ayumi, seemingly influenced by the movie she just watched, asked foolishly.
Kid noticed Ayumi's appearance a long time ago. Facing her question, he smirked, "No, not quite."
He lightly jumped down from the window, squatting in front of Ayumi in a gentlemanly manner, and performed a kiss-hand gesture, saying, "I'm just a little tired from flying in the air, so I stopped here to rest for a while. It's just magic, my dear."
Kid winked at her, charmingly enchanting Ayumi.
But before he could say anything else, the helicopter's spotlight shone down, ruining this beautiful moment.
"We found him! Hurry up! Arrest the Phantom Thief Kid!" Officer Nakamori shouted loudly, commanding the officers to catch Kid.
"Well then, goodbye, little girl." Kid hopped back onto the edge of the balcony, adjusted his top hat gracefully, and calmly jumped off from the high-altitude balcony, spreading his glider and disappearing into the distant city.
His elegant figure successfully captured the heart of a little fangirl. It's truly something to be celebrated.
As for the news of Phantom Thief Kid's reappearance, Senichi learned about it the next day.
At this moment, he was in a special investigation meeting about Phantom Thief Kid.
After all, he was now the son-in-law of the Suzuki family and had a record of protecting his mother-in-law's family treasure, the Black Star, from Kid's hands. So, both emotionally and rationally, he should participate in this operation meeting.
At the same time, alongside Senichi, there was also Kogoro Mouri, sitting next to him during the meeting.
Although Senichi felt that this meeting was probably of little use, after all, besides Conan, the only other beloved son of the world is Kid.
One good, one evil - both of them were formidable adversaries. The difference being that Conan has a powerful ally in the form of the Death God, while Kid did not.
But as he is the world's beloved son, it is really difficult to catch him.
Next, there was a detailed introduction about the opponent: the Phantom Thief 1412, commonly known as Kid, has committed 134 heists 15 in 12 other countries other than Japan, including America, France and Germany, stealing jewels worth a total of 38,725,000,000 yen.
Following that, Detective Shintaro Chaki, superintendent of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police 2nd Division, stood on the platform and revealed the teaser letter sent by the Phantom Thief Kid yesterday.
Amidst the astonishment of the detectives, the projector directly displayed the teaser letter.
[From the set of Leo till the dawn of Virgo. When the clock without a second hand strikes on the twelveth letter, I will come to get the Memories Egg from the openning sky.
The Last Wizard of the Century
Kaito KID]
In the face of this teaser letter, the police officers felt insulted and infuriated, leading to heated discussions.
This time, the target was the Suzuki family's collection - the Memories Egg.
It was a secret treasure of the Russian Imperial family, the Romanovs. It was recently discovered when Ayako and her family were organizing their vault last month.
It was given this name because it was a gift from the Russian czar to his wife on Easter Sunday and was also a precious art piece created by the renowned jeweler, Fabergé.
From 1885 to 1916, there were only a total of 50 Eggs made, and no new Eggs have been discovered since.
However, the one discovered at the Suzuki family's home was the 51st Egg.
This Memories Egg would be exhibited to the public during the opening ceremony of the Suzuki Art Museum built in Osaka Castle Park starting on August 23rd.
After providing a general overview in the meeting room, Officer Nakamori, dressed in a deep green suit, stood up and began explaining his analysis of the code, holding a microphone.
After a thorough analysis of each line, he deduced that Phantom Thief Kid would appear at Osaka Castle Park between dusk on August 22nd and dawn on August 23rd to steal the 51st Emperor Easter Egg.
"I see, that's how it is!"
"No wonder Officer Nakamori, who often clashes with Kid, understands this so well!"
After listening to Officer Nakamori's analysis, there was a chorus of voices expressing sudden realization, and the officers clapped their hands in approval.
"This time, we will work together with the Osaka City police to catch Phantom Thief Kid!"
With the microphone in one hand, Officer Nakamori gestured towards Senichi and the others, introducing them, "We also have Officer Senichi, who has made Kid taste defeat, and the renowned detective Mr. Kogoro Mouri, specially invited by Mr. Suzuki!"
Following the introduction, the gazes of the burly men in the room immediately turned to the direction pointed by Officer Nakamori.
Meanwhile, Kogoro Mouri, who was feeling sleepy, jolted awake under the scrutinizing looks of the crowd and forced a smile, raising his right hand to greet, "Hello, everyone..."
On the other hand, Senichi remained calm, nodding to his colleagues as a way of greeting.
"Our primary goal in this joint operation is to protect the treasure! Even if we let the culprit escape, we must safeguard the precious artifacts."
Shintaro Chaki spoke in a compromising tone, putting the overall situation first.
However, immediately after hearing such discouraging words from Chaki, Officer Nakamori raised the microphone in his hand and roared:
"Everyone!!
This time, with the assistance of Detective Mori and Detective Senichi, we have such a significant advantage. How can we let that Kid guy off so easily!!
This is an extremely rare opportunity to catch Phantom Thief Kid!! Put the treasure second!
Do you all understand?!!
Otherwise, our police force will be mocked as incompetent by the world! Our reputation will be ruined!
Let's stake our pride and reputation as the police and make sure that despicable thief ends up behind bars!!
Do you want to see that vile thief laugh smugly after stealing the treasure?!"
"We don't want that!!!"
Accompanied by Officer Nakamori's passionate speech on the podium, the burly men below responded with fervent shouts.
At that moment, emotions were boiling over!
