Volume 1 Beginning Chapter 101 Smart people’s hair is easy to stroke
The shrill alarm sounded throughout the building.
While the guards on this floor were stunned by the sudden alarm, Nan Ling threw in a must-have for home and travel - a small ball that would explode with anesthetic gas - from the ventilation vent.
This was obtained from Kaito. It might also be an invention of Dr. Agasa. After all, Kaito's assistant Terai and Dr. Agasa are good friends.
Anyway, Kaito said that he usually uses it - when he acts as Kidd - and it is quite convenient.
Nan Ling had to agree with this point of view.
He crawled out of the vent, landed lightly on the ground, and looked around at the people lying on the ground.
Isn't this much faster than giving each person an anesthetic injection one by one?
It seems that it’s not that the police are useless, but that these equipments are too buggy!
But most people are still useless in Nan Ling's eyes.
Since there was no one on this floor, Nan Ling walked to the only door on this floor in broad daylight and blew open the door with multiple password locks without regard for himself as an outsider.
No matter how fancy it is, as long as it can explode.
After a burst of smoke and dust, a pile of paper documents inside appeared in front of Nan Ling.
Of course, a huge storage device is also necessary to store electronic documents.
Nan Ling whistled softly, "You are so honest. Did you really leave all your things here?"
It's not that he is suspicious, it's just that putting the most important things in one's life together is really stupid .
"Where else can we put them? It would take more manpower to guard them separately ," Kaito had already climbed up from the elevator shaft along a rope left by Nan Ling. "Why not put them together and keep an eye on them, and pray that this place won't be destroyed."
"Then I think they may have to pray to a different god." Nan Ling placed the time bomb and clapped his hands in satisfaction, "Because this god is obviously not very reliable."
Kaito walked to the side and began to arrange their retreat according to the plan, "I don't think they will need to pray anymore in the future."
"Oh, yes. Our goal is to make them unable to recover from this." Nan Ling tapped his chin with his black-gloved finger. "No matter what, if you plot against me, you will have to pay the price."
"Is it about the time when that paranoid psychopath almost killed you?" Kaito also knew about this and nodded in agreement. "That was really too much."
"Yes." Nan Ling wanted to sigh when he mentioned Gin, "I hope that psychopath will stop exploiting me."
"It's really an adult's problem." Kaito smiled very easily, "But I'm still a student."
"Have you finished your homework? " Nan Ling asked a soul-searching question that only an adult would ask.
"Uh..." Kaito's expression froze, "It's because we need to prepare for this operation."
"These are all excuses." Nan Ling said briskly, "Children, you should study hard."
"Who is the kid?" Kaito glanced at Nan Ling with disdain, "You look younger than me." And your height is almost the same as mine.
However, he still didn't dare to say the latter sentence, because Nan Ling seemed to care about this very much.
"That's because I'm forever young." Nan Ling said nonchalantly, "By the way, don't be distracted. If you don't fix it, someone will come up to check it out soon."
"Didn't you put something to jam the elevator?"
"It won't take long... Anyway, it's better to hurry up."
"Alright, alright." Kaito took a step back. "Are you okay? Like a fear of heights or something?"
"If I were afraid of heights, I wouldn't have made such a plan, right?" Nan Ling checked Kaito's arrangements.
Because this building is relatively tall in the surrounding area and the target is located on the top floor, Nan Ling's planned retreat route is to slide to the roof of another slightly shorter building via a rope.
The target was a shopping mall, which also made it convenient for them to sneak into the crowd.
They had already marked the spot there in advance.
"You go first." Kaito pushed Nan Ling, "I brought a hang glider today. If someone catches up with me, I at least have other means."
"You brought a hang glider?" Nan Ling looked at Kaito from head to toe suspiciously, but didn't find anything hidden there. "Did you put it in the dimensional bag?"
Is this also science?
"As a Phantom Thief, how could I possibly let you see that?" Kaito raised his neck with a hint of pride. "Alright, alright, you're the one who said not to waste time, right?"
"Then I'll obey your command." Nan Ling took the lead in grabbing the zipline connected to the rope. He was not the kind of person who was hypocritical and hesitant. "See you later--"
His voice was carried away by the wind, and the tail end disappeared in front of Kaito along with his figure.
The speed was very fast, and the wind in the air made the rope sway left and right. But the most exciting thing was the feeling of being unprotected.
"Oh! It's like I'm flying." Nan Ling was glad that he wrapped his face tightly, because the wind was really strong.
Nan Ling hadn't reacted yet when he landed, and the whole sliding process took less than ten seconds.
Nan Ling couldn't help but give a thumbs up to the plan he had designed.
As he left, Kaito began to tie himself onto the zipline as well.
Just as he tied himself up, the elevator door creaked open. It looked like it was packed with bodyguards and thugs.
Kaito estimated the speed of the enemy rushing over and decisively threw a smoke bomb over there.
Then he whistled merrily and leaned back.
As the smoke exploded, Kaito's figure disappeared in front of the pursuers.
"careful--!"
"I--" Before Nan Ling could untie himself from the rope, he was unexpectedly bumped into by Kaito.
Before he could utter a single curse word, he heard Kaito quickly say, "They're catching up."
Nan Ling reacted quickly, "Cut the rope."
"Do you need to - Ahhhh!" Kaito's words were interrupted by Nan Ling's rough action.
"Hide here." Nan Ling grabbed Kaito's collar and hid behind a concrete pier on the rooftop. He held down Kaito's head with one hand and looked over there quietly.
"There's no need to be so careful, right?" Although Kaito said this, he was still held down obediently by Nan Ling.
"They may have guns. Even if they are not sniper rifles, this distance is still dangerous." Nan Ling said calmly, "Although it is our success, we should not be careless."
In order to be able to evacuate quickly, this building is actually not far from IDT's headquarters. If the opposite side shoots at this side, they will be in danger.
This kid has never suffered any setbacks. Except for meeting Conan, almost all of his plans have come true. It is normal for him to be a little proud.
"Oh." Kaito responded obediently.
But the advantage is that it is obedient enough and very smart.
Nan Ling rubbed the head of his subordinate and was surprised to find that it felt as good as Conan's.
"It turns out that smart people's hair is easy to stroke." Nan Ling was so sure.
