This trip was short on time, as Mrs. Suzuki was waiting for them to bring the Dark Star back, so they quickly got down to business.
Akutagawa Hiko briefly explained their plan to Kuroba Kaito.
It doesn't require much technical skill; it just requires Phantom Thief Kid to add a line when he commits another crime, such as "This is not the Pandora I'm looking for," and then the rest can be handed over to an undercover agent from some organization.
That's right, the undercover agent in this organization is none other than Amuro Tooru, known as the "King of Hired Managers".
This intelligence agent, who roams all over Tokyo, probably wouldn't mind using this kind of information as a qualification for climbing the ranks within the organization.
After hearing Akutagawa Hiko's plan, Kuroba Kaito's expression was somewhat complicated.
He had just accepted that his father, whom he thought was dead, was actually alive, and that he also had a famous detective cousin, when he suddenly learned that...
My cousin was shrunk because he was persecuted by an organization.
What kind of situation is this?
This family is really unlucky. How come they all so easily provoke outlaws? The father was forced to fake his death to escape because of that organization, and the detective was turned into a child because of another organization.
Thinking about it this way, Kaito Kuroba suddenly felt incredibly strong. Not long ago, he had outmaneuvered the organization that had forced his father to fake his death, obtained the gem, and successfully escaped.
Kaito Kuroba glanced at Conan, who was now shorter than his own legs, with pity and couldn't help but sigh in his heart: Cousin, you've suffered.
Having shrunk in size must have brought many inconveniences, and Miss Lan certainly wouldn't want her childhood sweetheart to be a child.
Kaito Kuroba, who had no idea how many hidden perks Conan received while staying at the Mouri Detective Agency (otherwise he would definitely shed tears of envy), couldn't help but ruffle Conan's hair.
Seeing Akutagawa Hiko do this made him itchy to do it himself, and now he could finally have his wish fulfilled without worrying about getting an anesthetic needle while touching him.
Sensing that Kaito Kuroba wasn't up to any good, Conan wasn't going to tolerate it. Hiding behind Hiko Akutagawa, Conan warily watched his cousin, whose face was full of the joy of a successful prank.
Akutagawa Hiko pulled a playing card from between Conan's suit and lining. On it was a very obscure riddle in the style of Kaito Kid, which roughly meant that he had agreed to their plan.
Thinking of the monsters and demons on the set of Phantom Thief Kid, Hiko Akutagawa pressed down on Kaito Kuroba's shoulder, fixing his head in place.
Kaito Kuroba didn't resist, but he yelled, "I know I'm charming, but I don't mean it that way—."
Before the joke was even finished, he was drawn to Akutagawa Hiko's eyes. When they were fighting over the dark stars in the sky, those eyes had briefly turned pure white, but now they had turned scarlet again, with three tomoe swirling within them.
Sharingan - Transfer Seal!
The Transcribing Seal is a sealing technique that only Sharingan users can learn; more accurately, this sealing technique should be classified as a dojutsu (eye technique).
This "technique" can seal other "techniques" in the eyes of oneself or the target. Madara once sealed Izanagi in his own eyes, and Itachi Uchiha once sealed Amaterasu in Sasuke's eyes.
What Akutagawa Hiko implanted in Kuroba Kaito's eyes was not a particularly powerful technique, but a D-rank auxiliary illusion technique—the Illusionary Naraku Appearance Technique.
No matter how strong a person's will is or what position they are in, there will always be scenes they fear and do not want to see. This illusion can materialize a person's fear and make them believe that it is real.
Simply put, it's about psychological warfare targeting the enemy's fears.
Kaito Kuroba rubbed his sore eyes and said, "What did you do to me? Are my eyes blind?!"
Normally, the transfer seal would not affect the target of the technique, but since Kaito Kuroba has no chakra, Akutagawa Hiko's use of this technique was purely brute force, so he would inevitably suffer some discomfort.
"Don't worry, it's something to save your life. As long as you are attacked by supernatural forces, what I sealed in your eyes will be activated."
Kaito Kuroba didn't seem afraid at all. He took out a small mirror and examined his eyes to see if they had changed. However, he found that they hadn't turned white or red, which made him a little disappointed.
Please, what does being different mean by being ostracized or isolated? Having eyes that are different from the crowd is just so cool, okay?
If he could have eyes like the famous detective in front of him, even with a full head of white hair, Kaito Kuroba would be willing!
Kaito Kuroba looked up and saw Hiko Akutagawa and Conan staring at the mirror in his hand with strange expressions.
Cross-dressing enthusiast Kaito Kuroba said matter-of-factly, "It's not like there are mirrors around every time I change my appearance. To ensure everything goes smoothly, it's reasonable for me to carry a mirror with me."

Hiko Akutagawa, who knew everything about Kaito Kid's cross-dressing experience, nodded: "If you say so, then so be it."
Ignoring Touko's anger, Akutagawa grabbed Conan and flew towards the cruise ship.
Successfully retrieving the Dark Star from Kaito Kid caused Akutagawa Hikaru's reputation to soar, which he guessed was probably due to his fans being Kaito Kid fans.
Although Akutagawa Hikaru also has his own fan base, it is still incomparable to the still huge fan base of the Phantom Thief, even after disappearing for eight years.
In high spirits, Akutagawa Hiko sneaked into an abandoned house in a remote suburb. He noticed signs that someone had indeed been there, which made him even happier.
He squeezed through the dilapidated, unusable window and instantly spotted a briefcase. After confirming that it was indeed full of banknotes, he quickly disappeared from the spot.
In the middle of the night, after much deliberation, Masayoshi Sakaguchi returned to the cabin in the woods once again.
He wasn't sure what he was thinking—whether he wanted to abandon the murder-for-hire plan or simply wanted to confirm whether the unknown killer had accepted the commission.
When I saw that the suitcase that was originally there was now empty, I felt a pang of anxiety and hurriedly drove home, only to find that police cars had already surrounded the neighborhood.
After learning of Tsuyoshi Maehara's death from the police, he was momentarily lost in confusion.
He didn't know if hiring someone to kill was the right thing to do, or if it was revenge for his son Masato Sakaguchi who died many years ago, and for those who had been bullied by Tsuyoshi Maehara since then.
After routine questioning, it ultimately ended in suicide.
Meanwhile, Sakaguchi Masayoshi returned home in a daze and patted John's head, who had sensed his master's bad mood and moved closer to him.
