Chapter 13 "The Phantom Thieves of the Heart"
"I'm so sleepy——"
Karasawa yawned in front of the mirror.
He felt exhausted, but he still had to walk back to the cafe, then hide quietly for a long time and cut newspapers to make notices, and he had to arrange for them to be sent out. The whole process could not be exposed to Tohru Amuro, otherwise he would be shocked as soon as the news came out. The horse fell off the horse, and the business collapsed immediately.
So when the cafe closed, he watched Toru Amuro leave with eyes full of relief.
Knowing that someone is more tired than me makes me feel happy.
The boy in the mirror is wearing a double-breasted short tuxedo and a pair of knee-length shorts. The scarf wrapped around his neck floats behind his back against gravity, giving him a beauty that is out of season.
The most outrageous thing is this mask.
“Is this called a mask?” Karasawa approached the mirror and pulled it. “This is called an eye patch!”
The upper half of his face was covered by a straight semicircle. The mask covers it, leaving no eye holes exposed at all.
What high imitation 9s.
I don’t know why, but in short, this mask - let’s admit it is a mask - does not block any vision, but from the outside it looks like a smooth leather blindfold, as if someone tied it with a strip of cloth His eyes were the same.
After studying the mask for a while, and studying the gently fluttering scarf for a while, Karasawa turned off the Phantom Thief form.
In short, he has a new skin that can be transformed with one click.
Being able to appear in the real world as a Kaitou suit, with his distinctive eyes covered, it makes him a new vest.
All good things are good things.
Tangze folded his hands on his chest and fell asleep in a particularly peaceful posture.
Now there is only one thing left. Isn’t this going to torture Leon severely in his dream?
————
While Tang Ze was playing and playing in his dreams, many people could not sleep.
On the street outside the Maru family's residence, the residents passing by were whispering.
Due to the bad character of the head of the Maru family, none of the neighbors dared to come forward to watch, but the small cards plastered all over the outer walls of the Maru family and thrown all over the street were really eye-catching.
Little chanting sounds are everywhere.
"The despicable villain of "greed", Mr. Maru Denjiro. "The woman passing by the alley approached the paper on the wall.
"You use money to torture the suffering people, trample on their dignity, and trample other people's treasures and hard work into dust. We are fully aware of all your shameless actions. . "The office worker who picked up the card looked closer to the words on it.
"Tomorrow, we will make you bear the consequences for all your crimes." The servant held the card tremblingly and read it word by word, "We accept your twisted desires. Sincerely, the Phantom Thieves of the Heart."
"Bang!" Maru Denjiro slammed the table, causing the tea in the tea cup to splash.
“Who did this?!” Although Maru Denjiro was over 150 years old, he roared with great anger, “Tear up this garbage, crush it all and throw it away!”
"I don't know, sir." The manservant lowered his head, not daring to look at his flushed face. "There are them all over the exterior walls, on the street, and all over the whole block..."
"Where's the surveillance, where's the security outside the door?!"
"The surveillance only captured a few children posted on the door. They said they picked them up on the street..."
Maru Denjiro's face was ashen, and he snatched the three pieces from the male servant's hand. Four pieces of paper were clenched into a ball and smashed on each other: "Why don't you clean up all the useless things for me quickly!"
"Yes!" The manservant did not dare to delay and seemed to run away. He went out,
Marudenjiro gasped for breath, fell down at the table and stared angrily at the paper ball that fell to the ground. His wife Maru Inoko sat on the other side, covering her smiling lips with a tea cup, looking at him coldly and furiously.
Marudozi was vaguely aware of the things he did.
Is there anything wrong on this piece of paper?
The business of the Maruji Group is booming. Maru Denjiro is not someone who is short of millions of yen at all, but he always does some dirty tricks, as if earning these dirty money makes him more satisfied.
“Okay, hubby, maybe someone is jealous of the recent boom in business at home and is spreading rumors to ruin your reputation?” Mrs. Maru smiled hypocritically, “It’s all arrogant nonsense, don’t be angry. ."
Marudenjiro glared at her bitterly: "What do you know, if such rumors spread, it will damage the reputation of the store! Forget it, why should I tell you this?"
This woman's whereabouts have become increasingly sneaky in recent days, and she is absent-minded at home. Marudenjiro suspects that she has a lover outside, and is entrusting a detective to investigate the matter. He is upset when he sees her smiling face.
There was useless trash everywhere. Maru Denjiro got up angrily and left, heading towards the storage room where the collections were placed.
Compared with the nonsense about "bearing the consequences for all crimes", he is more willing to believe that this provocation in the name of "Phantom Thieves" is probably targeting his collection.
Although the means of collecting may not be bright, Denjiro Maru has never been shy about showing off his rich collection. In addition to being a successful entrepreneur, he is also a famous collector.
Don’t be that low-level scumbag who can’t pay back the money and find someone to steal your things, right?
Maru Denjiro thought darkly in his heart.
On the other side of the world that he himself did not know, Denjiro Shadowmaru, who was wearing a crown suit with a gloomy and terrifying expression, picked up a samurai sword from the wall and drew out the sharp blade.
"Damn little thief, want to covet my treasure? I will give you a chance, no return!"
————
"The target is not Relevant training background ”
"Are you sure?"
"We have collected target's life information in the past ten years. Junior high school target has no long-term absence records, which is completely consistent with the life trajectory of ordinary students."
Cafe On the top floor of the apartment opposite, Shuichi Akai, who rented here, frowned as he listened to the new news from his colleagues on the other end of the phone.
"To be able to escape all tracking in such a short period of time, he cannot be an ordinary child."
A few photos were placed in front of Shuichi Akai, and they were clearly taken by Karasawa in the afternoon. The moment I was hit by someone in a shopping street.
There are scenes of Karasawa turning his head in surprise, of him raising his fists to block, and finally of him reaching out to support the opponent.
“You have also seen the screenshots. The target instinctively reacted defensively, and his hand and foot movements were coordinated quickly. He has very solid basic skills in boxing or fighting.”
If these photos are shown to Toru Amuro, he will immediately feel strangely familiar.
Isn’t this Toru Amuro’s actual combat habit?
"There is no blank space after junior high school, so what about before junior high school?" Shuichi Akai asked thoughtfully.
"Xiu, the target was still an eleven or twelve-year-old child at the time..."
"Don't forget, he is the child of Mr. and Mrs. Karasawa." Shuichi Akai switched the phone to the other side and took out a lighter to light a cigarette. , by the way, he put the photo in front of him in the ashtray, lit it and burned it as well, "When you are eleven or twelve years old, the target has not left their side."
The other end of the phone was silent for a few seconds, then hesitantly said: "Will the Karasawa couple do experiments on their own children?"
"It's not an experiment." Shuichi Akai smoked a cigarette, leaning on the window and looking down at the dark street across the street, "The Karasawa couple, just for Tang Zezhao started their research work
"If there is anything in the world that best reflects their research results, the result must be Tang Zezhao himself. ”
