MTL - How Real Wine Became the Light of the Metropolitan Police-Chapter 72 Stone of Life 6
When the venue is plunged into darkness, most normal people tend to be stunned at first.
When their brains slowly reacted and wanted to shout, the emergency lights around them were turned on in time.
It all ended quickly.
The venue was shrouded in light again.
Kuroba Kuito, who had successfully retired, put his hands in his pockets and stood beside Yuko Ninomiya as if nothing had happened.
He had already calculated the time to turn on the emergency lights in advance, and he was half-closing his eyes to resist the sudden light.
His ears moved.
Next should be his repertoire.
The screams caused by the disappearance of the gem.
He opened his eyes slowly.
Screams sounded in my ears as expected—
"what-!"
"what!"
First there was a harsh and mournful female voice, followed by countless loud shouts.
As for?
Kuroba Kaito couldn't help frowning.
He raised his hand and rubbed his ear, which was a little uncomfortable.
Didn't you just lose the gem?
Why is it so painful to cry.
He opened his eyes and looked at the glass cover in the middle of the hall. The gems inside had disappeared as he had planned, leaving only the empty display table and glass case, which were placed on the table like a joke.
Nice job!
Everything is going according to plan.
He couldn't help but want to show a slight smile, but for the integrity of his disguise, he pressed the corners of his lips firmly.
Next, it's the old man's turn to open the glass cover himself, crack his lock, and dedicate the gem to him.
Shouldn't that guy step forward immediately and open the glass showcase in disbelief?
Why don't you move...
He was a little puzzled and looked sideways-
The gray-haired youth instantly stiffened, and his black eyes widened a little.
Right next to the glass cover in the middle of the hall, where he almost passed—
The old man who was standing there was lying on his back at this time, his lips were purple, his eyes were closed, and he was unconscious.
His gray hair was scattered on the ground in a mess, and his wrinkled face had a hideous expression.
Out, something happened?
how come!
Kuroba Kaito looked at the scene in disbelief, his body trembling slightly.
He obviously didn't hurt anyone, he just remodeled the glass case...
"Father-!"
The eldest lady standing beside Kuroba Kaito let out a scream.
She didn't care about the goose-yellow skirt on her body at all, and she threw herself to the ground, her black hair messily hanging beside her cheeks.
Yuko Ninomiya stretched out her hand tremblingly, trying to check on her father's condition.
"Get out of the way!"
The middle-aged woman reacted with hindsight, pushed Yuko Ninomiya away, and knelt on the ground.
Her face was full of surprise and Zhang Huang, who had no time to hide, and the series of tears fell away.
"Husband! What's wrong with you, husband!"
The yellow-haired young man stood by himself, his hands hanging on the sides of his legs as if he didn't know what to do.
Jiro Ninomiya, who was standing on the other side of the showcase, also stepped forward with a serious face.
He still retained a trace of rationality, knelt on the ground for the first time, approached Kenzaburō Ninomiya who was lying on the ground, and reached out to probe the other's breath.
The extended fingers didn't feel any breath.
"No... I'm not angry anymore."
He fell to the ground.
"How could it be! Don't talk nonsense!"
The woman held Kenzaburō Ninomiya's head in disbelief, her fingers kept touching his face and pinching him.
"Wake up, husband! Husband, wake up quickly!"
Conan, who witnessed this scene, took advantage of his body to quickly pass through the restless crowd, and rushed to the front of Kenzaburo Ninomiya's body for the first time.
How did that happen?
dead, dead?
Phantom Thief Kidd can't kill. That guy never just took a look at the gem.
If it wasn't Kidd doing it, it was...
Conan looked up at the empty glass showcase.
Kidd turned off the lights in order to steal gems, and the murderer took advantage of this time to kill Kenzaburō Ninomiya!
Thinking from this point of view, the murderer must have fully grasped Kidd's plan before he started, so the murderer is likely not from the Er Gong family, otherwise it cannot be explained that the other party knows that the gem will be stolen, and still does not stop Kidd.
And if the murderer is someone inside the Er Gong family, there is time to do it, there is no need to wait until such an extremely embarrassing and extremely sensitive time to start.
However, neither Kidd nor the Ninomiya family, so I am afraid that only...
Conan glanced at the gray-haired youth who was still standing there, and then turned to look at the blond youth at the outermost side of the crowd.
Only the people of the organization are left.
The gray-haired youth looked like he didn't know what was going on.
The blond youth on the outermost side of the crowd had a solemn expression on his face, trying to push the crowd away to the center.
Mr. Amuro.
Are you here to stop this, or are you here to make it happen?
·
"Father—how could it be! You were fine just now!"
The young woman kneeling on the ground raised her tear-stained face, her goose-yellow evening dress was ruffled and her black hair was messily scattered behind her.
"Yes, is that Kaito Kid?"
"It's Kaitou Kid, right! The guy who sent the notice!"
Fierce anger burst out from Yuko Ninomiya's dark eyes, she turned to her side, raised her hand and pointed to the empty glass showcase.
"He took the gem! Killed father!"
"Really! The gem is gone too!"
"Isn't that Kaito Kidd!"
"Phantom Thief Kidd killed!"
"You... don't talk nonsense!"
Suzuki Sonoko shook his head in shock and retorted vigorously.
"Lord Kidd never kills anyone!"
However, few people cared what Suzuki Sonoko said.
Such a rebuttal was like a drop in the bucket, and was soon engulfed by a more fiery flame.
"The phantom thief Kidd murdered for a gem!"
"The phantom thief Kid stole the gem and killed Mr. Ninomiya!"
Such voices suddenly appeared in the crowd, and then spread rapidly, becoming more and more outrageous and farther and farther away from the truth.
When the spirit of the group is united, strength rises sharply and intelligence falls sharply.
The real and fake voices caused them to fall into a blind frenzy, and indignantly accused Mr. Phantom Thief who had actually done nothing.
Kuroba Kaito was like a needle on his back.
Anxiety filled his heart, almost drowning his whole body to the point where he couldn't breathe.
He raised his eyes and glanced around, feeling that everyone had spotted him, but he didn't seem to have.
Everyone's accusations are implemented on a concrete and concrete goal, but they cannot really be directed at him standing in the crowd.
There was a hint of helplessness in his eyes, and he looked at the detective who was very close to him as if he was holding the last straw.
But Mr. Detective seemed to be more anxious than he was, and his small face was even more tightly wrinkled at this time, and his eyes were looking at the crowd, not knowing what he was looking at.
What the **** is going on!
He didn't kill at all.
But if he stood up to explain all this, wouldn't his identity as the phantom thief Kidd be exposed?
If you don't explain it, do you want everyone to treat him as a murderer?
A dilemma.
·
Outside the crowd, Amuro Toru was still trying to walk in.
The extremely nervous crowd could not tolerate the slightest collision.
He had to be very careful not to make his actions seem abrupt.
Until a second before the light came on, he thought everything was under control.
His original plan was to go grab the gems in person after turning off the lights, so he made special moves on the lighting installations at the venue.
But what he didn't expect was that on the way back to the venue, he ran into the phantom thief Kidd who also wanted to attack the lighting device.
Of course it's best if you can do it yourself.
So Toru Amuro chose to abandon the original plan without hesitation, and started from Kaitou Kidd instead.
After waiting for the guy to take the gems out of the display cabinet, he went to grab the gems, which was not only unobtrusive, but also perfectly threw the pot to the thief.
He must have this gem.
M already knows his identity, and he can no longer let the people in the organization doubt himself.
The organization wanted this gem because of the legends loaded on the gem.
After receiving the task, he immediately looked up the relevant information of the gem.
This gem appears to have a problem with its mineral composition, which could have some effect on human cells.
But whether its role is as magical as in the legend, no one knows.
The organization was actually able to buy the gem at auction.
They arranged tasks and sent members.
It just so happened that the member responsible for buying this gem happened to be an undercover agent sent to the organization by the MI6 British Army Intelligence Sixth Bureau.
In fact, let Amuro see, this MI6 undercover gentleman is a little short-sighted, just a gem, even if the news is revealed to the official, what can the organization do to get the gem back again.
Just like now, didn't the organization send him to do it again?
The correct way should be to first get the gemstone into your own hands and try to see if it can be imitated.
If it can be imitated, everyone will be happy to give the fake to the organization.
If it can't be imitated, cut a part of the gem from the gem and hand it over to the public security for simultaneous research. At the same time, in order to avoid panicking, hand the gem to the organization.
Unreservedly passing on information will only expose one's identity plainly, which is simply not worth the loss.
But there was no way. For the first time, the undercover gentleman carried out the task independently. Maybe he was shy or too excited, and he sent the news to MI6 at the first time.
The auction was held in the UK, and MI6 personally stopped it.
As a result, the snipe and clam competed and the fisherman profited. The organization failed to capture the gem, and MI6 failed to intercept the gem. The gem was taken away by Kenzaburo Ninomiya, a wealthy businessman from Japan.
Thinking of this, Amuro Toru's face sank.
He raised a smirk, apologized to the person in front of him, and walked past him.
Kenzaburo Ninomiya was killed.
This was something he didn't expect.
The gem should still be in the showcase by now.
But the only key has become an immovable corpse, and at this moment everyone's eyes are focused on this corpse.
Then how to open the gem showcase and take out that gem!
