There was knock on the window scarring him the both of them.
"Tantei-Kun" said Kaito surprised.
He was surprised to see the little Detective and was now able to move from the shock. Conan Edowaga was now walking away from them as if he was to follow but he would alone.
"Hey Tantei-Kun wait up" said Kaito.
He ran as fast as he could be catching up as he clumsily got out of the car almost falling to the ground just getting out he wanted an explanation and was figured he was about to get one. Well he was hoping for one because he was not sure what the hell had just happened.
They did not talk and they were in silence as they were going away from the school now they were going towards the parking lot in the darkness. He was being led by a child and Tantei-Kun there was something off about him he could not tell what it was but he could just feel it in his gut.
They stood in the parking lot in silence as if they were waiting on something happening or waiting for someone. Then he heard the buzzing sound it was Tantei-Kun`s phone he was getting a text and was reading it. Kaito tried to read it but before he could the phone was flipped down. Why did Tantei-Kun have a phone that was probably older than him?
Conan looked bored as if he did not want to be there and just wanted to sit somewhere and be alone.
"Tantei-Kun who was..." said Kaito but was interrupted.
"He is not dead" said Conan in a bored voice.
"What?" said Kaito.
"Exactly what I said are deaf?" said Conan rather cruelly.
"I am going now just wait here" said Conan.
"Oi" said Kaito.
He ran after Conan Edowaga wanting to know what was happening and was met with a death glare scaring more than ever. That looked sent shivers down his spine making him physically shake and step back to where he was originally standing as he watched Conan Edowaga walk away with a bored expression look on his face. He was truly confused and scared at the same time.
"Hello Kaitou Kid you can call me Cool Guy" said Cool Guy.
He was startled and jumped into the air landing on the ground somehow. This person voice he heard appeared out of nowhere.
"Are you alright? "
"Are you hurt?
said Cool Guy sounding really concerned.
"Mmmmm ffine" he said as the pain was going away.
He stood up to see a guy wearing as grey suit and wearing a dark hoodie covering his face and Identity.
The aura and feeling that was coming from this guy was bold and strong. He could tell that he was smart more than smart a genius maybe more than himself. He was an expert on disguises so he could tell that he was very young no more twenty may even younger. He was obviously Japanese and a local he could tell. The disguise was a quick one and put together in a rush as if he had no time to plan ahead.
They both were the same height and same body size. He could not see his face so he had no idea what it looked like but he had a feeling he had seen it before and was the same with his voice it sounded eerie very eerily familiar he could not put his finger on it but he felt like he knew exactly who he was. He was dying to know who he was and know more about him.
Dam that is who people must feel about me when they see me and well fucking hell it is just annoying.
"So, by what Tantei-Kun had said I am guessing you were the one dressed up as me?" said Kaito.
He put the pieces together because he was really hoping that no one died pretending to be him. And it was the only thing that made sense to him but not all of it made sense and he was about to find out why.
Cool Guy was going red in the face. From embarrassment or nerves?
"Yes, that was me" he said laughing.
"But why?" said Kaito.
"To fake your death of course. Didn't Conan tell you that someone's death would be faked" said Cool Guy.
" I am still confused" said Kaito.
"The Black Organisation have been killing all the 'Gentlemen and Gentlewomen' Thieves in the world and all you thieves are basically a dying breed. They will not stop until you are all dead and this was the best way to do it" said Cool Guy.
"You faked my death so..." said Kaito.
"So, you would be safe..." said Cool Guy.
"What gave you the right to do that!" said Kaito angrily.
"Relax KID only the Organisation think you are dead and no one else. This way you are safe and you have the choice on whenever you want to carry on or not" said Cool Guy.
"What is the catch, there is always a catch" said Kaito.
"Do not be Kaitou Kid for a while maybe that least three months" said Cool Guy.
He was about to say more but one of his Doves flew by him.
The Dove landed on Cool Guy`s shoulder and looked at him in the face.
The Dove was staring trying to look at him trying to figure things out the Dove Tantei was being true to his name. As he began to chirp happily he had figured it out and he was strangely happy with this. He wanted petted and he got what he wanted as he was being clapped he was chirping away happily almost smiling if he could. He then began to sing.
Kaito was fascinated by his Dove was with this stranger only his Doves trusted a select few of people and Tantei was acting like he knew this guy for a long time and trusted him. In fact, there was actually only three people THIS Dove trusted other than himself. And that was Jii, his mother and Tantei-Kun.
"So, I guess if my Dove can trust you then it means I will put my faith in you" said Kaitou Kid bowing.
"But tell me how much of this was planned and how long?" said Kaitou Kid.
"From the very beginning" said someone from behind him.
He knew that voice and did not want to turn around as he could see Tantei fly away in panic in fear he would be eaten.
"Hello Kaitou Kid " said Jirochiki Suzuki.
He turned around he was now staring at Suzuki with his dog Lupin staring at him and smiling as if he had won.
"I don't understand" said Kaitou Kid.
Jirochiki Suzuki moved towards Cool Guy putting his arm across his neck in tight hold like a hug as if they had been friends a long time. And Lupin was on his legs jumping trying to lick Cool Guys face happily wagging his tail wanting attention.
Do all animals like this Guy? Kaito thought jealously.
At least the guy looks uncomfortable, yet he still calm and cool, weird.
"We tricked you KID from the very beginning I have no friend that donated that Ruby and I was never here to catch you" said Jirochiki Suzuki.
He was gobsmacked as his mouth hang open.
"I told him that your life was in danger" said Cool Guy.
"And I owed you one for saving Lupin here" said Jirochiki Suzuki.
"You owed me?" said Kaitou Kid.
"Yes, and I am no longer in your debt Kaitou Kid. So next time we meet you will be in handcuffs" said Suzuki laughing as he walked away from Cool Guy.
"You did not need to" said Kaitou Kid.
"But I did you may be a thief but you are a humble one when it comes to normal people. So, I owed you a life or a life" said Jirochiki Suzuki.
"Thank You" said Kaitou Kid showing a real smile as he said it.
"But if you do figure out who this guy is I will owe you another favour. Maybe even pay for your Lawyer if you ever need one. Here is my card" said Jirochiki Suzuki handing over his card to Kaitou Kid.
Kaito just took the card and put it in his pocket.
He was alone again with Cool Guy and he could feel the tension again.
"So, you played me good from the beginning and planned everything" said Kaitou Kid.
"Yeah sorry about that but was the best way to make it real" said Cool Guy.
" I am not insulting you but I am actually congratulating you on your skills I am impressed" said Kaitou Kid clapping.
He just nodded nervously.
"But how did you know what I would do?" said Kaitou Kid.
"I could not plan and anticipate all of your actions but I could plan ahead of how you would be trying and get the ruby" said Cool Guy.
"The Ruby, I see" said Kaitou Kid.
"Yes, to break the fake ones you would have to use three elements" said Cool Guy.
"Cold, Heat and Electricity to destroy the fake ones. So, you planned for me to find out about them" said Kaitou Kid.
"Yes, you are a thief after all and I thought it would interesting to use the same trick before but in a different way" said cool Guy.
"The Black Pearl" he said confirming.
"But I must say I was disappointed that you keep using the dummies all the time " said Cool Guy.
"Hey Mr Critic I do not insult you on your job" said Kaitou Kid.
They both laughed like they were old friends.
"But it is funny how Nakamori falls for the simplest trick" said Cool Guy.
"Yeah never gets old" said Kaitou Kid.
He liked this guy already and felt like he could trust him and wanted to help.
"Well that is enough of the chit chat" said Kaitou Kid.
"..." said Cool Guy.
"Tell me Detective who exactly are you?" said Kaitou Kid.
"Just a humble Detective out to stop the bad guy" said Cool Guy joking.
'Okay so he imitating me I get it. He must be destroyed' thought Kaito.
"Ok your hilarious now I think we are done joking around and I want you to answer my questions. You owe since you used me" said Kaitou Kid.
"Rather ironic that you do not like anyone pretending to be you" said Cool Guy.
"I will let you some things if you ask the right questions" said Cool Guy challenging him.
"Fine" he said annoyed.
"Who are you?" said Kaitou Kid.
"Pass" said Cool Guy.
"Fine what do I call you?" said Kaitou Kid.
"The FBI called me Cool Guy so let's just go with that" said Cool Guy.
" Have we ever met? " said Kaitou Kid.
" I..." he said but stopped hesitating looking at himself.
" I Cool Guy have never met you before" said Cool Guy.
He could tell by his voice he was telling the truth but there was more to it.
"Have you ever met the first Kaitou Kid " said Kaitou Kid.
"..."
"Answer me" he said angrily and pleading.
"Yes, I have but I did not know who he was at the time. I had just recently found out that I did years about nine years ago" said Cool Guy sounding sympathetic.
"Where is Tantei-kun going and why are you taking over?" said Kaitou Kid.
"Because...he wants to leave and be with his family. And someone needs to takeover it is my obligation as a Detective to help" said Cool Guy.
"Do you know who I am?" said Kaitou Kid.
"No, I do not intent to find out that is basically everything on your Identity you need to know" said Cool Guy.
"When is Tantei-Kun leaving?" said Kaitou Kid.
" I am not sure myself and neither is he but he will leave" said Cool Guy.
"Where is he going? And don't say home" said Kaitou Kid.
"Pass" said Cool Guy.
"But" said Kaitou Kid.
"Pass" said Cool Guy making it clear the subject was over.
"Mmmm" he said rubbing his chin trying to think.
" Will I ever find out who you are?" said Kaitou Kid.
"Pass" said Cool Guy.
"Why are you keeping your Identity a secret? " said Kaitou Kid.
"Pass" said Cool Guy.
" Are you in danger or something?" said Kaitou Kid.
"..."
"Look I more than anyone can understand keeping a Secret Identity to protect your loved ones and the hardship that comes with it. But you can trust me. I can help, I can keep your Identity a secret" said Kaitou Kid.
He felt like he could sympathize with this guy and he could understand how he felt because he did feel the same. And he wanted to talk to someone who felt the same as him. Someone who is in a similar situation as him, it may not be the exact same but it was the same way he would feel and have to act every day.
Kaitou Kid got closer to him and try to talk but Cool Guy instinctively stepped back several steps until he walked into a car.
"Look I trust you I do but I don't want to discuss my life and how I feel about it" said Cool Guy nervously.
"But why not you clearly need to talk to someone you look like you haven't slept in a week and you do not look well" said Kaitou Kid.
"Look I am a Detective and you are a Thief we may have similar emotional states but you do not know anything about me" said Cool Guy.
" And I could say the same but you could read me just as easy" said Kaitou Kid.
"Ok so it is settled and I am going to go now" said Cool Guy.
"Wait I am not done asking questions" said Kaitou Kid.
"Ok fine shoot" said Cool Guy.
"Tell me what do you know about Kudo Shinichi" said Kaitou Kid.
"That is not a question" said Cool Guy.
"Ok" said Kaitou Kid.
"Can you tell me everything and I mean everything you know about Kudo Shinichi?" said Kaitou Kid.
"No" said Cool Guy.
" I am going now, I can trust that you will keep everything that happened tonight to yourself, your mother and your assistant" said Cool Guy leaving.
"Hey I am not taking no for answer, no one will tell me anything apart from he is dead and was murdered" said Kaitou Kid.
" Was his death covered up or something? "
"Did something else happen"
"What are you, Tantei-Kun and your FBI friends hiding"
Said Kaitou Kid.
"Pass" said Cool Guy.
He was holding a sleep bomb in his hand getting ready to use it and even kidnap the Detective if he had to get the information he needed to know.
"I did not want to use this but..." said Kaitou Kid.
"Aaaargghhh" screamed Cool Guy in pain.
He collapsed to the ground in pain clutching his chest screaming in pain.
Kaito ran to him to try and help.
"Ssstay away from me " said Cool Guy trying to get up.
"No there is something wrong with you and you need help" said Kaitou Kid.
" I will be fine it is just a little pain"
"Yyyyoouu can go now "
"Aaarrgghh"
he said and screamed in pain barely able to see each sentence.
"No, I am taking you to the Hospital right now. You look like you are having a heart attack" said Kaitou Kid concerned.
"NO HOSPITALS" screamed Cool Guy.
He was amazed the Detective was able to scream so loudly and it was clear he had used up all his energy. The Detective was slipping in and out of consciousness so if he had to he would force him to go to the Hospital.
He had never witnessed someone in so much pain and never seen an illness look like this. He was now beside the Detective he could hear his heart beat was moving over a hundred beats a minute and his pulse was racing.
His skin felt and looked like wax as he could feel who clammy and see the sweat drip from him. He was shaking and in pain. He looked like he was about to die. He felt like he was on fire when he touched his forehead even with the glove on his hand now he could feel the heat.
"Sorry but since Tantei-Kun had me knocked out today. It is only fair I do the same to his friend" said Kaitou Kid apologetically.
"Please don't" he said
"Arrgghh" he screamed again in pain clutching his chest even tighter.
Cool Guy reached into his pocket and quickly pressed something.
"Sorry I truly am but it is for your best" said Kaitou Kid.
He took a cloth filled with chloroform to the Detective`s mouth, he tried to fight back but he was too weak. He could see the fight in his eyes his eyes were a piercing and sharpening blue. He had never seen eyes like that before, or had he?
The Detective closed his eyes he was now unconscious but he still looked sick. He was about to lift him up when he was suddenly stopped he contacted Jii quickly to pick him up using his speaker but he did not tell him about the Detective.
He was waiting and was arguing with himself in his head but gave in. He got closer to the Detective face he looked familiar but if he wanted to see his face properly he would have to take to hoodie off that was covering his face.
He decided he would take the hoodie off he was feeling guilty but it would have to be took off at the Hospital anyway. He put his hands on the hoodie when he could feel the Detective shake and he could hear and feel the Detective`s bones sound like they were breaking or something else.
"Get away from him" said a voice.
Kaito was met face to face with barrel of a gun and the female FBI agent Jodie Starling.
"But he needs help" said Kaito defensively.
"Not yours" said another voice.
He knew that voice from anywhere but there was venom in the voice it was Tantei-Kun.
He turned around and he was met with the tranquilizer watch and a look of pure hatred. He could also see another man or men hiding in the darkness ready to attack.
He could tell that they all including Tantei-Kun were ready to kill him right now. They looked like they were protecting this Cool Guy, this Detective and would die for him. And what he was doing was a danger to them to the Detective. This was a part of their secret.
"It looks like your lift is here" said Conan amused and sounding threatening.
He just got up without say a word and got into the car. As Jii drove away he could now see three FBI agents, Tantei-Kun and Agasa there covering up the mysterious Detective so could not be seen.
The two male FBI agents were picking him up and that was the last thing he saw as the car speed up as he could feel the fear coming from a paranoid Jii.
He was home now and he had a lot to think of and had no idea what was happening.
