Leader Zai and Despair Raids the World

Kidd squatted down, thought for a while, and simply sat cross-legged on the ground.

In this way, the 17-year-old ordinary male high school student and phantom thief finally reached eye level with this group of elementary school students.

…But I don’t know why, although Kidd is the most mature (outwardly) here, but he always feels aggrieved that “he is the only one in this group who didn’t get the script right”.

Kidd was really aggrieved and watched Osamu Dazai tie the obsidian back to the bow tie again, and said pitifully: "You've made me miserable, Mr. Little~" He shook his white cloak that was stained with soot , "Almost shot into a sieve~"

Maybe it's because I'm too familiar with my old enemy, or maybe it's because I'm only dealing with children.

The liveliness of "Kuroba Kaito" emerges slightly from under the idol burden of "Phantom Thief Kidd", making his speech relaxed and even a little cute and playful.

Hearing this, his old enemy unceremoniously rolled his eyes.

"Come on." Conan complained, "With your ability, didn't you know that this is a normal obsidian at first glance? Don't deliberately pretend to be wronged!"

As for Kidd deliberately snatching the obsidian from Dazai, pretending to be "Pandora" and stealing it... nothing more than trying to divert the focus of the audience and protect the child who was targeted by the mysterious organization at that time.

--but! !Conan wouldn't say such things as a compliment to his old enemy, hmph!

Dazai smiled slightly after hearing this, and didn't express any opinions on Conan's inappropriate words.

He just said to Kidd as a reward: "Then reward you."

This sentence was very plain, but after the words fell, Dazai actually put his hand into his bosom, and touched a gem from the inside pocket of his suit.

The gem is oval and egg-shaped.

The warm jade white color is so small that it fits in the palm of your hand.

But the strange thing is: from the middle of the gemstone, a dark and transparent pattern emerges, which is not only like a glass window that can be seen into the interior at a glance, but also like a switch that can be separated up and down.

--nature.That is impossible.

"Cocoon" is just a gem after all, isn't it?

Dazai showed a slightly expectant smile:

"How? Do you want to steal the 'cocoon' from me, Mr. Phantom Thief?"

Mr. Phantom Thief opened his eyes wide: "So the gem is really in your hands?!"

Mr. Detective also opened his eyes wide: "So this is 'cocoon'?! Wait, no one can prove it—ah!!"

Conan suddenly had a flash of inspiration and connected all the clues so far!

He couldn't help but put his fingertips together in thought, and reasoned quickly:

"That's why Uncle Suzuki Jijiro looked at you at the meeting just now, because he had to seek the opinion of the new owner of the gem before he could tell this matter... That's why Suzuki Sonoko was late at the beginning, because she said' The guest who must be introduced is you! That's why you came to this Suzuki family's collection room to wait for us, because you came here not long ago!"

"so--"

Edogawa Conan is the final word!

"Osamu Dazai, you are the new holder of 'Cocoon'!"

He couldn't help being curious about the next sentence: "I never heard that Uncle Jikichiro Suzuki would give the gem to others... Dazai, how did you get it?"

Dazai just smiled: "I bought it."

Conan: "...So you still bought it after all?!?! Did you win the financial competition with the Suzuki family, is it true or not?"

Dazai still smiled: "Oh, I can't tell you the specific method~"

The end of this sentence is slightly raised, with some suspicion of trying to pass the test with cuteness.

Dazai was originally small, and his whole body was white, so Yuxue looked cute.

Now squinting his kite pupils, smiling maliciously and being cute, no one can stand it.

...at least Conan (on the surface) gave up with a straight face.

He glared at Kidd who was trying to quietly reach out to the gem, then turned his head and asked, "Then can you tell me now, why do you have to get the 'cocoon'?"

Dazai didn't hesitate.

"I'm also looking for this reason," Dazai said, "Unfortunately, after asking around, it seems that this 'born out of thin air' gem is indeed lack of information."

After he finished speaking, he casually handed the gem to the other two villain teammates, and Xia Youjie and Bai Lan Jiesuo, who once "opened up the world line" in another sense, took it and passed it on for a while, and then relied on After pondering for a moment about the information he possessed, he finally shook his head.

——That was not a "key item" that had appeared in their "archive".

Kidd chimed in: "Didn't you say 'Pandora'?"

When he said this word, he couldn't help showing a little disgust in his tone: "It can be recognized by looking at the moonlight, and it can make people live forever...whatever, those guys who are obsessed with gems said so."

"Idiot." Dazai sneered, "They got scammed. By 'that gentleman.'"

From that smiling voice, a cruel sarcasm emerges:

"I made a good calculation...it's a pity that I miscalculated, no matter which side."

What does this sentence mean?

Conan, who knew some information about the men in black organization, frowned and thought:

What is 'that gentleman' trying to take advantage of the chaos to achieve some ulterior purpose?Or is there a deeper secret within the organization?

Is it the crow who wants to make this pool of water more and more muddy, so that no one can escape?Or do you want to drag Kidd and the mysterious organization into the water, and it is best that none of the three "young masters" can get the gems?

However, the foreign object suddenly stuffed into the palm woke Conan from his contemplation.

In front of him, Dazai smiled nonchalantly.

"Let me be lazy and ask the professionals to solve the mystery, little detective."

In this way, the priceless treasure, the last and most important clue, was handed over to Edogawa Conan.

"I believe in your ability to solve crimes, Edogawa-kun."

Dazai said so.

***

Banquet venue.

The situation has completely calmed down.

The mysterious organization that chooses to confront the protagonist group head-on, all those who appeared this time were unfortunately wiped out.

Search Section [-] calls foreign aid to drive over in a police car. The Japanese police, FBI, and Men in Black organization (...) all hide among the crowd, hiding their achievements and fame.

Scotland abided by the agreement with the young master, and although the members of the three young detectives were slightly surprised, they returned safely to Mao Lilan and Suzuki Sonoko.

He then took advantage of his status to comfort the guests and shuttle around the venue.

"...I'm a little worried about the young master," the waiter said in a low voice when passing by the golden hair star assistant, "Would you like to take a look?"

Before the young man who was the assistant could speak, the stunningly glamorous female star interrupted first.

She held the wine glass in front of her lips, and spit out clear Japanese from her English-speaking mouth:

"I also have a bad feeling."

Belmode whispered, "Let's go together."

***

"...So, an address?"

Dazai repeated softly thoughtfully.

Conan was immersed in the eagerness of reasoning, and together with Kidd, who was familiar with gems and was identifying the lines on gems, they rummaged through the electronic map: "Yes," Conan said, and at the same time subconsciously murmured, "The horizontal line is the latitude, the vertical line If it’s the longitude……it’s there!”

He is very familiar with this coordinate, almost blurting out:

"'Tokyo Metropolitan Mika City Hall'!"

But then it got stuck: "I don't remember anything happening there in the last few years..."

"...It doesn't matter," Dazai seemed to be satisfied, "Yes. You have already helped me a lot."

After saying this, Dazai didn't wait any longer, but said directly to Kidd, "Then, I'll give you the gem."

"?!" Rao Kidd, he has almost never seen such a scene of giving away gems at the slightest disagreement!He suppressed the twitching feeling at the corner of his mouth, and quickly refused: "Wait a minute, I wouldn't want it if it wasn't for 'Pandora'! I also returned the gems from before!! What kind of reputation is being victimized... Tell me In a word, little detective!"

The little detective couldn't take care of himself.Because Dazai immediately left the gem to Conan: "Then give it to you and return it to Suzuki Jijiro."

Before Edogawa Conan was confused and asked countless question marks, he was quickly coaxed by Dazai Osamu who was full of words, and he packed Kidd and threw it outside the door.

Conan: "..."

Conan: "...?????"

Isn't it right? !What is this wrong development?He is a detective!How can you interrupt the detective's reasoning reading -- wait a minute, that's not the point! !

Conan pushed the door hard.The door that Dazai could have pushed open a moment ago remained motionless.

Kidd also fiddled with it, listening to the movement: "Looking at the retro, it is equipped with an electronic lock...Damn it! I seem to know which kid who sent the drone to chase me just now!!"

Conan ignored Kidd's intentionally teasing and reassuring jokes, and just put his ears on the door wholeheartedly, worrying terribly!

——Put Osamu Dazai alone and those two "young masters" who are not simple in any way, isn't it too dangerous? !

***

"..."

"..."

"It's about time."

It was Bai Lan who spoke first: "I've waited so long, I'm really fed up with this world that fools me."

Without a frivolous smile, even if the time goes back to eight years old, Bai Lan's body can easily reveal a cold coercion.

—Obviously, he didn't forget about it for even a second.

"But~"

After complaining, Bai Lan returned to her original demeanor and laughed: "You really are a very interesting 'player', 'Teacher Dazai'~"

He yelled that on purpose, and Xia Youjie gave him a cold look.

"My 'righteousness' is not a good thing," Xia Youjie said, "but... Teacher Dazai. The utopia you personally brought is so beautiful that I can't let it go."

After finishing these two sentences, Xia Youjie and Bai Lan Jiesuo looked at each other.

"Let's talk at the same time."

"for safety."

They turned to Osamu Dazai and showed one last smile:

"Next, I'll leave it to you—"

"..."

Osamu Dazai just watched quietly.

No words, no words.

"'That gentleman' Renye Karasuma, is already dead."

Xia Youjie said.

"The purpose of the organization is: to resurrect the dead, to turn back time."

"This world is nothing but an electronic virtual reality."

Brandon Jesso said.

"The terminal is at the 'Tokyo Mihua City Hall'."

at the same time,

In the two columns of classical sculptures of knights with guns in the room, a corner of the pedestal fell off by coincidence.

***

"boom"--! !

***

When everyone finally tried their best to kick open the door, this is what they saw.

Osamu Dazai didn't go anywhere, he was still standing there.

However, the clean white suit was spattered with jet-like blood.

As if disturbed by the sound of kicking the door, the little child raised his head and glanced over.

——Just one glance made everyone feel a chill like swallowing lead in their stomachs.

As if noticing this subtle change, but as if he didn't take it seriously, Dazai just raised the back of his hand, and wiped away the blood splashed on his face in a dull manner.

"Both 'Heir Candidates' are dead."

Dazai said in a voice so empty that he could almost hear the wind.

"So."

"I'm the real power holder of the 'organization'."
