Chapter 178

His thin figure had a desolate and bleak feeling.

"Young Master, let's go. That Onmyoji knows your residence; we can't stay here."

Konosuke Jii moved a large pile of luggage into the car.

"How did I, Kaitou Kid, end up so miserable?"

Kaito Kuroba, wearing a pig-head mask, made "woo-woo" sounds.

"Why do I always provoke that Onmyoji!"

"Bastard, I must take revenge. I must get my hands on that Memory Egg!"

Looking at Kaito Kuroba, who was swollen like a pig's head, Konosuke Jii looked helpless.

Young Master, aren't you just asking for trouble?

One day before the opening of the Osaka Suzuki Art Museum.

Akaso Kaze took a plane to Kanto International Airport.

The seat was, of course, the most luxurious first class, and there were only two people in the entire first-class cabin.

One was Akaso Kaze, and the other was Ayako Suzuki.

The reason was that since Ayako Suzuki was carrying the Memory Egg, the Suzuki family had booked the entire first-class cabin to ensure safety.

After the plane took off, the flight attendant brought drinks and cut fruit.

Lunch was brought onto the plane by the Suzuki family, and Akaso Kaze even had two drinks with Ayako.

After eating, the two lay on their chairs to rest, and the flight attendant also returned to the galley to rest.

Akaso Kaze was planning to take a nap, but Ayako Suzuki leaned toward him with a flushed face.

"Mr. Akaso, I, I want to go to the restroom~".

Huh?

What does wanting to go to the restroom mean?

Akaso Kaze looked over, puzzled.

Ayako Suzuki held the box containing the Memory Egg, "Father told me not to let go of it along the way, so I, I..."

The girl's face was so red she couldn't continue.

Shiro Suzuki certainly wouldn't have such harsh requirements, but he did have other requirements.

If Ayako couldn't complete it, she would be married off to another family.

Rather than that, it would be better to be with Akaso Kaze.

At the very least, he was a very good person, capable, and had charisma.

Most importantly, he was handsome!

Akaso Kaze followed Ayako toward the restroom, completely confused.

He was quite curious about what this girl wanted to do.

Arriving at the front restroom, there was no one there.

The flight attendant didn't know where she had hidden.

Without someone to help, one couldn't even open the restroom door.

Akaso Kaze helped Ayako push the door open, watched Ayako walk in, and turned around.

Just as he was about to close the door, it was blocked by the box in Ayako's hand.

"Mr. Akaso~"

Ayako Suzuki's voice wavered, "I have to hold the box, could you, could you help me..."

Huh?

Even this needs help?

Akaso Kaze looked at Ayako, whose face was flushed red, and knew exactly what she meant.

Looking down, Ayako Suzuki was wearing a purple long dress today.

Holding a fairly large box in her hand, it was indeed inconvenient.

Looking around, there was no one anyway.

Might as well help her to the end.

Akaso Kaze took a step forward and entered the restroom as well.

After a long while, the two returned to their seats.

Ayako Suzuki's face was completely red.

She stole a glance at Akaso Kaze.

This man was truly a gentleman.

He didn't touch her at all.

He just kept his eyes closed and helped her.

It's just...

Oh my, it was just too embarrassing.

Ayako Suzuki pulled up the blanket and covered herself.

【Ding, Ayako Suzuki has developed a favorable impression of you; current favorability is 1.】

Akaso Kaze's mouth curled slightly.

How could it work without favorability?

Besides, for a mage, what difference does it make whether eyes are closed or open?

Afternoon, Kanto International Airport.

Accompanied by a loud noise, a plane landed from the sky and stopped on the runway.

The airport staff hurriedly set up the boarding stairs, and as the cabin door opened.

Shiro Suzuki and Masato Nishino, who were waiting by the runway, hurriedly walked over and bowed to Akaso Kaze, who had just stepped off the plane.

"Hello, Lord Akaso, welcome to our Suzuki family's art exhibition. Thank you very much."

"Uh, not at all, Mr. Suzuki is too polite."

Shiro Suzuki's grand display surprised even Akaso Kaze.

Isn't this a bit too much today?

Not only did Shiro Suzuki come to the airport to greet him personally, but there was also a line of stretched luxury cars parked beside the runway.

Standing beside the luxury cars was a line of professional drivers in black suits.

This is probably state-guest level treatment, right?

Sigh, I'm not the type of person who likes to show off like this!

Akaso Kaze held Ayako Suzuki's waist, and Ayako Suzuki held the "Memory Egg."

The two walked down the boarding stairs together.

Seeing this scene, Shiro Suzuki showed a satisfied smile and gave Ayako Suzuki a wink.

Akaso Kaze and Ayako Suzuki got into one of the luxury cars.

The rear space of this car was very large, with two rows of facing seats.

Ayako insisted on squeezing together with Akaso Kaze.

The car started, and the glass in the cockpit rose immediately.

The entire rear became an enclosed space.

Ayako Suzuki suddenly leaned over.

"Mr. Akaso, I, I feel a bit dizzy."

"Can I lie on your lap for a while?"

Such a simple request, Akaso Kaze naturally couldn't refuse.

Ayako Suzuki lay down, resting on Akaso Kaze's lap, and then turned over.

Her little face was facing Akaso Kaze's direction.

Akaso Kaze couldn't help but raise an eyebrow.

Then, screech, the brakes were applied...

Hiss!

Akaso Kaze took a deep breath.

Miss Ayako, you must protect my egg well!

A line of stretched luxury cars sped forward on the road.

Surrounding cars gave way one after another, and the road was almost completely unobstructed.

It wasn't that the luxury cars themselves were worth that much, but the person who could mobilize a line of such cars must have an extraordinary background.

When the motorcade arrived in front of the main entrance of the Suzuki Modern Art Museum, they saw police officers stationed every ten steps outside the museum.

These police officers looked serious and seemed to be performing their duties.

Akaso Kaze curled his lips; he had already predicted on the way that Kaitou Kid hadn't arrived yet.

And according to Kaitou Kid's consistent principles of operation, committing crimes in broad daylight was not his style at all.

So are these police officers just sunbathing?

Akaso Kaze got out of the car, and Ayako Suzuki followed behind.

She pursed her lips tightly, her face flushed red.

She was attracted by the sound of a motorcycle engine being turned off behind them.

Everyone turned to look and saw two young men wearing helmets sitting on green motorcycles. One of them took off his helmet and said.

"He is the elusive, freely changing phantom thief gentleman. Even with the strictest guards and the strongest vaults, he can miraculously crack them quickly."

"Whether it's appearance or voice, he can easily imitate them; he is a master of disguise."

"It can be said that we have really encountered a tricky target this time..."

"Mr. Akaso."

The helmets were removed, and the two young men revealed their faces.
