Chapter 101

"No, it’s too light, definitely not it. Damn it, who took all my gold?"

A card fluttered down from the gap between the bricks and landed right at Conan’s feet.

Conan picked it up and read aloud: "The treasure in this cave, whether from four hundred years ago or recently, I have taken it all... Kaitou Kid?"

"Eh? Who called me?"

A head poked into the cave entrance.

Kaitou Kid looked at the situation inside the cave with some surprise.

Eh, I think I stumbled upon something big.

"Damn it! So it was you who stole my gold!"

Kinoshita Goro waved his pistol and fired two shots.

Kaitou Kid was so scared he turned and ran.

While running, he cursed: "Did I rob you or something? Why are you shooting as soon as we meet..."

Conan looked on in confusion as Kinoshita Goro chased Kaitou Kid out.

He looked at the card in his hand, then at the screaming Kid, feeling that something was wrong.

Forget it, catch the murderer first.

He also hurriedly chased after them.

At the cave entrance, the village head, Mikami Takeo, brought a large group of villagers over.

They were holding shovels, hoes, and various other tools.

"I overheard Lord Onmyoji talking to his girlfriend today."

"He said the gold was in the Naval Soldier Cave."

"He also said Kaitou Kid was eyeing this treasure."

"That belongs to us on Fushijima; how can we let an outsider take it?"

Mikami Takeo said to the islanders.

"Right, we absolutely cannot let them take it."

"It’s said to be worth a billion; each of our families could get millions."

"We won't go home until we find the gold today."

The excited islanders were just about to enter the cave when a figure suddenly ran out from inside.

Behind him, someone shouted: "Kaitou Kid, hand over the gold."

"Kaitou Kid?!"

Everyone was stunned by the sound.

Then they immediately exploded.

"Quick, catch Kaitou Kid, he stole the gold."

Kaitou Kid, who had just rushed out of the cave, was dumbfounded.

The sky was filled with shovels and hoes, smashing down on him.

"Who did I offend?"

"I haven't even done anything since arriving on the island!"

"Why am I being hunted?"

"Are the people on this island crazy?"

Kaitou Kid was on the verge of tears; he took a few hits from the hoes and threw a smoke bomb...

By the sea, the beach, the beautiful scenery.

Akaso Kaze and Ran were leisurely strolling along the coast.

"Blowing in the sea breeze, it’s so comfortable!"

The sunlight shone through Ran’s thin skirt, making Akaso Kaze, who was following behind, curl his mouth slightly.

Suddenly, some rustling sounds came from the woods in the distance.

A flock of startled birds flew into the air, as if fleeing in a panic.

"What’s going on?"

Ran’s magic resistance suddenly became low again, and she hid in Akaso Kaze’s arms in fear.

"Don't be afraid, I’m here."

Akaso Kaze looked at the woods unhappily.

Who dares to scare our Ran?

Let me deal with them.

A few seconds later, a ragged person suddenly burst out of the woods.

He screamed loudly: "It wasn't me, I didn't steal it."

Then, with a *splash*, he jumped into the sea.

He swam for his life and ran away.

"Who was that just now?" Ran asked in surprise. "He looked a bit familiar."

Akaso Kaze’s mouth twitched, and before he could speak.

A large group of islanders chased out of the woods.

"Lord Akaso, have you seen Kaitou Kid?"

"You were right, Kaitou Kid really came to steal things."

"He even left a card as a provocation."

"Is that so? How arrogant." Akaso Kaze laughed inwardly, but his face showed an angry expression.

"He just jumped into the sea. Hurry, get on a boat and chase him. We absolutely cannot let this guy escape with Fushijima’s gold."

"Right, Lord Akaso is right, we cannot let him escape."

A bunch of people rushed off in a hurry.

Just as the islanders left, Conan and the island police walked out of the woods, escorting Kinoshita Goro.

"Brother Akaso, Sister Ran?"

Seeing Akaso Kaze leisurely holding Ran, and then looking at his own disheveled state, Conan felt very uncomfortable.

It’s truly frustrating to compare people.

This guy is here flirting and strolling around.

While I’m working myself to death catching criminals, and almost got killed by the criminal.

The gap is just too big.

However, Conan quickly cheered himself up.

I was the one who solved this case.

I’m going to show off in front of Ran and let her see the gap between Akaso Kaze and me.

Thinking of Akaso Kaze’s frustrated look, Conan felt an inexplicable excitement.

When he arrived, before Conan could speak.

Akaso Kaze laughed first.

"Mr. Kinoshita, you are truly too greedy. For a mere bit of gold, you didn't hesitate to kill Hamada Koji and Uehara Yasuo."

Kinoshita Goro looked dejected when he saw Akaso Kaze.

He lowered his head and said: "I guessed right, it really was Lord Akaso who took action."

"Otherwise, how could a mere child discover my hidden crimes?"

"Eh?" Conan was dumbfounded. "No, I deduced it myself..."

Kinoshita Goro ignored him completely.

"Lord Akaso is truly worthy of being Tokyo’s strongest Onmyoji. He didn't even need to take action himself; he just sent a child, and I had nowhere to run."

"I shouldn't have done anything under Lord Akaso’s nose."

"However, I’m afraid the one who gained the most from this incident is Lord Onmyoji, right?" Kinoshita Goro said meaningfully.

Akaso Kaze raised an eyebrow.

It seems this guy figured something out.

It’s true, Kaitou Kid escaped empty-handed.

On the entire island, the only one who could take away so much gold without a sound was this all-powerful Onmyoji.

However, I had already anticipated this.

Akaso Kaze’s mouth curled up slightly.

"Eh? Is that a boat?"

On the sea, Kaitou Kid, who was swimming with all his might, was pleasantly surprised to see a broken boat floating not far away.

He paddled a few times and climbed onto the boat.

"How strange, there’s no one on the boat."

"The name of the boat is also familiar, Dragon God?"

In the distance, the islanders all stopped their boats.

One by one, they stared dumbfounded at the boat Kaitou Kid had climbed onto in the distance.

"Dragon God?"

"That ghost ship?"

"Wasn't it placed inside the village?"

"When did it float out to sea?"

"It must be Kaitou Kid, he stole all the gold onto the boat, hurry and chase him!"

"That boat is moving so fast, we can't catch up..."

Under the water, the giant Fog Tengu pulled the Dragon God forward, breaking through the waves, and quickly disappeared into the vast sea.

Alright, now even if Kaitou Kid jumps into the sea, he won't be able to wash himself clean.
