Its been a few weeks now since I was turned into a child and supposedly died. When I went to the Professors, there was someone called Haibara there. She was actually the scientist who created the drug! At least she knows what her actions have done to other people. Haibara had taken the drug to escape from an organisation, somehow she survived.
In my free time, I have been testing my powers. You see, we all have some kind of spirit animal connected to us. Mine is an owl, they are babies until you make a contract with your soulmate. Once doing so, they will grow to their full size and actually do magic alongside you. I mean they already do, but they drain our power, they don't use their own. There have been cases where people can have two Spirit animals but it is nearly impossible to find someone with two. The cool thing is, yours and your soulmates spirit animals can collide and become something else entirely.
I was getting ready for bed when something caught my attention.
"... Yeah, the note is written in little riddles, but nobody can figure out where Kaitou 1412 is going to appear."
"What kind of thief tells the police what he is going to steal and when?" Mouri grumbled.
That is rather strange, I think the only person to do so, that I have heard of is The Phantom Lady. I climb up the chair and peer over the note. Well isn't this interesting.
xXx
I can't figure out the note.
An officer mentioned the river, about the waves, but that isn't it. Wait! I know where he is going to show.
I swiftly snuck away from Rans hawk eyes and made my way to a hotel, where Kaitou 1412 will appear. I should get something to catch someones attention in the helicopters, fireworks should do the trick right? I climbed up the stairs and made it towards the rooftop. I placed a firework inside a can and took my phone out. If I was about to come face to face with a criminal, I should at least know what I should expect.
I waited for the Professor to look through my Fathers old documents to see if Kaitou KID is in within them. My phone started ringing.
"Apparently the thief first appeared around 20 years ago in ago. He would send notes to Inspector Nakamori and steal a gem at a later date. Whatever he stole, it was always returned. He doesn't like people using his name and nobody gets hurt during his heists. He disappeared a few years after his appearance for 8 years. He only recently returned and is mainly active in Japan."
"If he was active around 20 years ago, he must be quite old now."
"There's something else. The number 1412 was actually a number the FBI gave the thief. An author saw how it looked similar to the word kid. The thief could trick the whole police force as they were kids. After that, the thief has been known as 'Kaitou KID'."
"Kaitou KID..."
Behind him, he could hear light footsteps and turned his head to the direction of the sound. There stood someone who looked like Shinichi's' actual age dressed in a white suit, a white top hat on his head, a monocle over his right eye with a cape hovering behind him. What a tasteless outfit.
"What are you doing up here, boy?"
I turned around and lit up the fireworks with a match. "Fireworks!" That should catch someones attention. I was right, there was now a helicopter coming our way.
"Look! The helicopter has spotted us!"
The thief turned towards him with a big smile on his face "You're no ordinary brat are you."
Dropping the childish act "Edogawa Conan, Detective."
"Oh~"
"Shouldn't you be worrying thief-san?"
When he turns around I could shoot him with my dart watch the professor made. Instead, the thief doesn't turn around. He goes through his coat and pulls out a walkie-talkie. He clears his throat and starts speaking as the man in control of all the police officers. I'm gobsmacked.
He lures all police in cars and helicopters to the rooftop and changes his voice. Again! This time he is the Inspector in charge of the KID task force and sent all of them up here. By the time they were all up here, the thief used some sought of magic and disappeared. How? There is no such thing as teleportation! That's why magicians who can't use magic perform that stunt. It cant be done!
At least he will be a challenge to get taken away. The thief is full of mysteries, just waiting to be unleashed to this world. But the thief was different, I can sense how much power somebody has but, his power level was changing all the time. And his aura, it's different to other thieves I've come across, they had stone cold hearts, where this thiefs' was warm and cheerful. Just who exactly is he? Its a shame most of the KID task force can't use magic, so they have to go the basic way of stopping a criminal. At least this thief uses magic that magicians would use, not one of a wizard, except for that disappearing act he just did.
Was the reason he couldn't see his power level was because he was stronger than him? That can't be possible, can it? Maybe Haibara might have an idea.
