Now locked in a jail cell she was behind bars and locked away again, and she was trying to do her best to stay sane at the same time as she was trying to think of plan on how she could escape from the now hell that she was in.
The way that they all looked like her as if she was a ghost or zombie they were all perplexed, and the look of disgust seconds later when all it sank in and when they thought she was Makoto Okuda and not herself. People she knew could not see that she was the real deal and the way that Megure had looked at her when she was taken in she had never seen him like that.
He looked at her in the eye wanting to say something to her, but she could see the words were lost and jumbled inside her head. He was hoping that he had recognized that she was the real deal for that seconds, and she swore that he did because he almost took the handcuffs off her, and said it as well.
"Get her out of my sight" he said as he walked past.
And that was when she was marched to a jail cell.
They had taken her fingerprints so, it would not be long before they had them checked and everything would turn into chaos and anarchy.
She needed help and the only person that she could think of right now that could help her out of this situation right now was someone that she did not want to see right now, but she knew that she had to make that call.
Everyone in the Task Force wanted to be rid of their prisoner as soon as possible because right now they all could feel a chill goes down their spine. The prisoner had not said a single word at all and did not even look anyone in the eye just giving them all. Even looking at the Mug Shot, and a photo the last picture of her ever taken the resemblance was chilling to the bone.
Even her presence was welcoming like the real Kudo's was that would bring a smile to your face, making you relived and confident that everything is going to be alright. It was just terrifying looking at her because it was like looking at a ghost.
The sooner those fingerprints come back the sooner that they can get rid of the impostor and get back to their endless workload of cases that they were surrounded in that just kept piling up the moment Kudo had died.
He wanted to be rid of the fake Kudo, and that was the end of that case, he was glad about that. Her name was being disgraced and pulled through the dirt because of that maniac pretending to be her because he could not handle that his father was a murderer, and that he killed himself.
"Inspector Megure, Makoto Okuda has been arrested, in Ekoda this morning" said Takagi.
He spinned around in his seat the moment he had heard it.
"Then who do I have arrested, and locked in a cell?" he said astonished.
But Takagi was sweating when heard this.
RING
He was in a shower when he heard the phone ringing, and he was in the middle of washing his birds nest of a hair putting the shampoo in it for a second time, so that he could condition it because it needed conditioning.
He usually ignored the phone always letting it go onto voice mail because he knew that it would be Aoko, and she would leave her message loudly and politely. Or she would just scream through her window if she wanted to talk to him. And he could not think it would be anyone else other than some idiot selling something, and they always call when you are in the middle of something like you are on the restroom, in a shower or a sandwich and sometimes the bastards phone when you are in bed.
But he just had a feeling in his git, and he knew that he just had to answer the phone even if he had shampoo in his eyes and was butt naked he had to answer the phone. So, he jumped out of the shower taking the shower curtain with him and ran down the stairs walking into the wall blind as a bat and in pain from the shampoo, almost slipping down the stairs on the first step he had to answer the phone.
"Hello?" he said sounding exhausted.
"Kaito I will be blunt and just gt straight to the pint because we do not have a lot of time. I need your expertise as a magician, your other half to help me out of a tight spot" said Shinichi whispering to the phone as she covered her mouth and the phone.
He stood still as his hair was dripping wet all over the phone.
"Shin-Chan is that really you ?" said Kaito hopeful.
"Of course it is and is a proof you have a deathly fear of fish Ichthyophobia" said Shinichi.
He pouted and shivered at the same time.
"Do you need to use that against me all the time Shin-Chan it is really depressing and wait it really is you Shin-Chan I love you, what are you doing and wait what did you just say?" said Kaito.
He could hear her tapping her foot being annoyed and face palming at the same time, it was definitely his Shin-Chan.
"Shin-Chan!" said Kaito.
"Ugh you need to stop calling me that and just come to my oh I hate myself for saying this I really do but I really need you to come to my rescue I am in jail in Beika. And no one can know I was here so please can you help me ... I hate myself for this I really do..." said Shinichi annoyed with herself, mainly.
Kaito could not help but smile.
My Shin-Chan is asking me to break the law, I never thought this day would come especially from you Detective my Shin-Chan you have changed indeed " said Kaito.
He was so happy hearing her that he had almost forgotten what had happened and what was happening right now to her and everything that had happened he was blind to it all for that moment.
But he could hear the sadness on the other end of the phone when she did not reply to his teasing rant. He could swear that. She was starting to cry, and he had realised that he had upset her, and he had to do something about it.
"Shin-Chan?" said Kaito.
"I am not the same person that you used to know but please just help me I can't stay in here much longer Kaito I really can't, please" said Shinichi.
He could hear someone in the background walking towards her.
"Shin-Chan I am coming for you and this time you can count on me this time I promise Shin-Chan that I will come to rescue, and I am just so sorry that I ...I am sorry Shin-Chan for everything but everything will be just fine you will see. It will be just like the good old days and times before you know it ..." said Kaito.
He could hear her shaking her head at what he was saying.
"Shin-Chan?" he asked again.
He was hoping that she would give him a positive or at least snarky answer back.
"Gotta go, hurry please" said Shin-Chan.
BEEP
"Shin-Chan?" he said again.
But she had already hung up on him, like she always did to him and to everyone that she was on the phone to so at least that had not changed about her phone manners were still terrible.
He just pouted and clicked his tongue as he crossed his arms' putting the phone down.
"Kaito!"
It was Aoko, and she was putting the key in the front door letting herself in, and that was when he realise that he was butt naked. All except for a see through shower curtain that was not even covering his body properly.
He did not want Aoko to see him like this, and he did not want to see Aoko right now, especially like this. The last time she saw him naked when he was a little kid playing Doctors, and ever since she thought of him as a pervert and well he was more than curious since that day.
Now he had to go to down the secret passage through the secret cupboard, and he could get things started from there. It was very tight, too tight and the last time he had been in here he must have grown an inch or two and maybe gained a few muscles since then, but he was able to get in minus the shower curtain of course. Which was kind of flying like a cape to him a cape that he was starting to miss, but did not want to wear anymore.
And now he was going down a slide landing into a couch with the old costume popping up, just wearing for someone to wear and that person was not going to be him because he did not want to wear it ever again.
So, he was going to have to break into Beika police station and get his Shin-Chan out of jail and get rid of all evidence that she was ever there. So, he was going up against divisions of cops that had a little help from her in the past and would have learned a lot of things from her about deductions and noticing the weird and wonderful. So, this little mission he was going on was not going to be the easiest, and he could even consider it life or death if anything was going to go wrong. Or the worst he would end up in the nearest jail cell next to his Shin-Chan, well that would not be that bad. No it would not because she was a girl, and he would not be in the same area as her and that would not be fair not one bit.
He smiled at the thought of all this of all the danger it, he was about to get himself into and just how fun it was going to be.
He a Phantom Thief was back, but he would need a new costume and a new name, but not right now because he had another costume in mind to wear.
And he was going to need some help from an old assistant that he knew or at least he thinks he knows that he can trust to help him make some mischief, and a lot of fun because he had not had it in quite some time.
Plus he would get to see his Shin-Chan again.
