Chapter 162 Magic Show
"Um, Your Highness, um—the challenge—"
Feeling that his profession was not being respected, Kaito couldn't help but interrupt Princess An, who was still trying to take a photo with him.
Unexpectedly, they didn't take the so-called challenge seriously at all. Their attitude made the two people present think that if the "Paris Sunshine" commemorative ...
Akutagawa Hiko hugged the kitten named Vermouth, watching their interaction, he was practically munching on a handful of sunflower seeds.
Kaito knelt on one knee and gave Princess Anne a kiss on the hand: "I'm very sorry, Your Highness, but I don't have much time. Please give me this jewel that hangs on your chest."
In the past, he could have simply looked at the moon and returned the gem without even leaving the room. But today was different; he needed to vindicate his future father-in-law.
Princess An seemed somewhat sad, holding up the gemstone on her chest: "Oh, is that so? But this gemstone is something important that my father entrusted to me here, I can't give it to you."
Kaito Kid chuckled and said, "It's alright, I'm just borrowing it for a moment. The gem will be back in your hands later."
Trust the credibility of an elegant thief.
Looking at the sincere Kaito Kid in front of her, the princess also wavered a little. Although thieves don't have much credibility, Kaito Kid, as a world-famous phantom thief, is surprisingly honest.
"How about we have this great detective as our guarantor? He's a famous detective around here."
Upon hearing this, Akutagawa Hiko, who had extensive experience in teasing cats, immediately looked up. He had only come to watch the fun and incidentally help Nakamori Ginzo regain his confidence and reputation. Why was he involved?
"detective?"
Princess An blinked, somewhat puzzled as to why a detective and a phantom thief would be hanging out together, and seem so familiar with each other. It gave her a sense of dislocation, as if a literary work had come to life.
Akutagawa Hiko pulled out a crystal ball, looked at the crowded Officer Delon and many other police officers in the elevator, and said, "We need to hurry, Kid, if you don't want me to tie you up and take you to the Metropolitan Police Department."
Princess An, curious, quickly stepped forward and asked, "Is this some kind of new technology? Where can I buy it?"
Akutagawa Hiko shook his finger: "It's not technology, you know. If we're talking about something the princess can understand better, then it should be considered magic."
Princess An covered her mouth in surprise, but she didn't seem to have her worldview shattered. Instead, she seemed to have become even more certain of her suspicions: "Magic really does exist in this world!"
Akutagawa Hiko looked around the princess-style room and stroked his chin. "How about this? I'll put on a magic show for you, and you lend us the jewels for a while. What do you say?"
Princess An readily took off the gemstone and placed it in Kid's hand. Then, she sat obediently on the bed, looking expectantly at Akutagawa Hiko.
Magic does not lose its value because of the existence of magic; on the contrary, it becomes even more dazzling because humans use their wisdom and skills to achieve all kinds of amazing results, and because of the human brilliance that comes with them.
But this doesn't mean magic isn't attractive; on the contrary, rare magic is even more intriguing.
As Akutagawa Hiko formed a hand seal, frost and water gradually spread, and lifelike animals made of frost formed in the room. A giant moose walked up to the three of them, followed by a snowmobile that could accommodate three people.
The entire room was covered in frost, forming various peculiar decorations, and the kind little animals from fairy tales came to life.
Even the texture of the hair is so realistic.
"How about it, Princess, would you like to join us for a flight through the skies?"
With the activation of the Super Light Heavy Rock Technique, as long as frost can be continuously condensed at the feet of the moose, flying is not difficult, although sand would be even easier.
But it doesn't really match the image of a frosty moose.
"certainly."
When the princess reached out her hand, Kidd stepped forward to support it and even took a few pillows from the bed to use as cushions to prevent her from getting frostbite.
Akutagawa Hiko gripped the reins and asked, "Are you ready?"
"Alright, Captain!" ×2
Faced with the two's perfectly synchronized answers, Akutagawa Hiko smiled knowingly, because that was exactly what he was thinking. Then, with a wave of his arms, the moose rushed out of the wide-open French windows.
When Officer Delon finally rushed into the princess's room alone, he was so shocked by what he saw that he was almost speechless. However, he did not believe in any magic; he thought it was just a magic trick played by Kid and his accomplices.
That's right, besides the princess and Kid, there's another unknown guy flying in the sky right now. What else could he be but Kid's accomplice?
Akutagawa Hiko, who was happily driving, suddenly turned cold. The police officer who had chased after him to the window, whether because he was very confident in his marksmanship or because he didn't care about the princess's life or death at all, actually opened fire.
Having been in this world for so long, although he has been attacked by many, this is the first time someone has shot him.
An ice bird was blocked in the trajectory and shattered. The fragments instantly expanded and transformed into more birds, launching an attack on the flustered and disoriented Deron.
Not only was his pistol lost, but he was also thrown out and hung on the railing directly below the window.
"Alright, the annoying guy is gone."
After saying that, the moose suddenly sped up.
With each hooves landing, a piece of ice would appear at the opportune moment, instantly sublimating into tiny water droplets, as if traveling through clouds and mist.
The crowd that lingered in the venue also witnessed this scene and were all amazed by this magical "magic show," and they all speculated about the principle behind the magic trick.
Unfortunately, no one can provide a reasonable explanation.
"Look, it's a flying moose! Is Santa Claus starting work early?"
Ayumi was the first to notice the anomaly in the sky. Ai looked up at the sound and saw, besides the princess and Kaito Kid that she had only seen on the news so far,
And there was another familiar figure, none other than Akutagawa Hiko.
Yuan Tai also saw it and said that Santa Claus might be late, so he brought his family along to deliver the gifts. He plans to hang stockings by his bed tonight.
Although he has already received Christmas gifts, what if there are other gifts he hasn't received yet? He wants more than one gift.
Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya stared blankly at the moose flying in the sky, the princess's excited laughter still ringing in his ears. He kept muttering, "This is unscientific." Ai Haibara chuckled softly. "Something that has already appeared, and you still say it's unscientific? That science is too narrow-minded."
Conan, who had just rejoined the team, sighed: "This is too reckless."
