Chapter 875 Douzi: It's time for Mom to sacrifice herself
Kaito's expression froze and the rose fell to the ground.
The scene of that night reappeared in his mind—a giant dragon made of flames hovering in the night sky, and the heat waves burned his cheeks...
"That, that must be some kind of holographic projection! And afterwards, the Suzuki Group also issued a report saying that they have developed the latest new projection technology." He said stubbornly, "Holographic projection combined with flammable gas and--"
For these protagonists, the worldview is indestructible.
It would be better to kill them directly than to make them believe in magic.
"That's enough. I'm not interested in convincing you."
Hongzi waved his hands impatiently, as if shooing away a fly.
Now, Kuroba Kaito is just a tool in her eyes. She only has Hanyu Kusunoki in her eyes and heart. As for what to do, she will talk about it later.
As she spoke, she pulled out a yellowed ancient book from her bag. The gold-stamped runes on the sheepskin cover had faded. "Do you recognize this?"
Kaito's pupils suddenly contracted.
The spider emblem engraved on the spine of the book was exactly the same as the one on the notes left by his father!
"The Dark Night Star Record..." His voice tightened, "It is a forbidden book that records the whereabouts of Pandora's gemstone..."
"It seems that Kuroba Toichi has told you a lot of stories." Hongzi flipped the pages casually, and Kaito's eyes followed them as if attracted by a magnet. "Page 37 mentions that Pandora will appear when the moonlight shines..."
"Give it to me!" Kaito suddenly reached out to grab it.
Hongzi was prepared, the book snapped shut and disappeared into her palm: "You want it? Do me a favor first."
Kaito's hand froze in mid-air. After a brief hesitation, he put on an attentive expression, "How do you want me to help you?"
"It's very simple~" Hongzi took out the chocolate again like a magic trick, "Ask your mother, the Lady Phantom Thief, to help us and let Hanyu Kusunoki eat this at the Ryoma exhibition."
Kaito's expression suddenly changed: "How do you know she--"
My mother retired from society a long time ago.
I know much more than you think." Hongzi played with the chocolate confidently, with a mysterious look in her eyes, "For example...you and your mother had a big fight recently?"
She tilted her head slightly and looked at Kaito with a half-smile.
Cold sweat instantly broke out on Kaito's forehead and his heartbeat suddenly accelerated.
He hasn't dared to go home for a long time since the last time he had a big fight with his mother over something and was even chased and hacked with an axe.
I didn't expect Hongzi to know all these things, but when you think about it, the other party already knows his identity as Kaito Kid, it doesn't seem so shocking to know his mother's identity.
But to complete the task proposed by Hongzi...
"...She and I can't communicate right now." Kaito turned his face away.
Thinking of his mother's angry face and her figure wielding an axe, Douzi felt frightened.
"Then go and communicate." Hongzi waved the ancient book in front of him, "Unless you don't want this?"
Kaito stared at the book that might contain clues to the Pandora's gem that he and his father, Kaito Kid, had been searching for, and his hands clenched unconsciously.
Finally, he took a deep breath and said, "...Deal."
There was no way. The temptation offered by Koizumi Hongzi was too great, so great that he couldn't refuse.
Hongzi smiled with satisfaction: "A wise choice."
She turned to leave, then turned back and added, "Remember, if the mission cannot be completed, I can't guarantee that this book will not appear on the desk of some zoo leader."
"zoo?"
Kaito didn't realize what that meant for a moment.
After all, for his safety, his parents never told him anything about the mysterious organization "Zoo".
"What a weird thing! I'm still in the botanical garden..." Kaito complained silently in his heart, staring at Koizumi Hongzi's departing back, and suddenly shouted: "Wait! Why does my mother have to be involved?"
Hongzi paused for a moment, her face glowing an eerie red in the afterglow of the setting sun, like a witch from the dark world. "Because, as far as I know, Hanyu Kusunoki is particularly unguarded towards mature women."
The answer made Kaito's stomach twist.
What's the meaning? !
Is he going to use his mother as bait?
Not to mention whether his mother would agree, as a son, could he watch his own mother use the honey trap on Hanyu Kusunoki? Could he? It was impossible...
"Hiss~ It seems like a good idea..."
Kuroba Kaito pinched his chin, and the expression on his face gradually changed from anger to thought, and then gradually became excited.
Based on my understanding of Hanyu Kusunoki, that guy is always surrounded by various beauties. It can be said that women are his biggest weakness.
The beauty trap might really be the best option.
And if my mom takes action, with her skills, that guy won't be able to take advantage of her.
After all, my mother has been in the business world for many years and is very experienced.
The more he thought about it, the more excited Douzi became.
He saw an opportunity to take revenge on Hanyu Kusunoki, and no matter whether the true love chocolate that Koizumi Akako talked about was true or not, as long as he could get that guy to eat the chocolate, he could get the book with clues about Pandora's gems.
"Killing multiple birds with one stone! I am truly a genius!"
Douzi slapped his thigh hard, his face full of excitement, confident of victory.
For the sake of the gem and her son, it's time for mom to "sacrifice".
..........
Meanwhile, Hanyu stays at home.
The villa has been expanded by a new floor in the past two days.
A few girls discovered another way to play with the shrinking lamp.
With the perfect combination of four-dimensional building blocks and the skillful carpenter Amei, this newly expanded floor was given an interesting name - the little man's room.
When you enter the Little People’s Room, you step into a miniature fantasy world.
Inside are various building block toys such as amusement facilities, buildings, forests, etc. that are reproduced from the real world at a 1:1 ratio, and every detail is lifelike.
The girls in the family have been playing here these days.
As long as you use the shrinking lamp to make yourself smaller, it’s like entering a fairy tale kingdom full of surprises.
Here, you can find miniature versions of any famous building you can think of, such as the Pyramids and the Statue of Liberty, allowing you to experience the wonderful feeling of traveling around the world without leaving your home.
"Ah!"
Hanyu Kusunoki, who was playing hide-and-seek with Xiaolan, Sonoko, and Kazuha in the doll's room with great interest, suddenly sneezed.
"Bu-yi?" (Catch a cold?)
Yingying jumped onto his shoulder with concern.
"No..." Hanyu Kusunoki rubbed his nose, a hint of amusement flashed in his eyes, "Someone must be targeting me..."
He looked in the direction of Jiang Gutian, with a meaningful smile on his face: "I hope that witch lady... has fun~"
