Chapter 534 - Targeted

That night, it was still the same room where Officer Nakamori had assigned tasks to the policemen, and it was still the same group of participants...... Of course, this time, Kogoro Mori, who had previously been asked by Officer Nakamori not to participate in the operation, was not here.

"We've got all the information from the headquarters on Kidd's previous international crimesβ€”plus what I've told you before, and that's all the history of Kidd the Thief, and I'm asking you to take a closer look at the contents, and focus on the items and abilities Kidd the Thief might have."

"First of all, it's his transfiguration talent – his ability to use the materials he has prepared in a short period of time to make up for someone he has already done his homework and knows very well. The whole outfit will be so perfect that it's almost impossible to see, so don't judge by your own eyes. As for the flaw of this ability, as I said, he needs to use the information he has prepared to complete the perfect disguise in a short period of time, which means that he is afraid of life. If we had focused on some sort of cosmetic aspect before the action, Kidd the Monster Thief might not have been able to complete the disguise in a short period of time and fool you and me. ”

"The second point is the ability to speak. Just like the disguise ability, Kidd the Monster Thief has...... It should not be said that it is the same as the ability to disguise, but it can be said that it is better than the ability to disguise the voice. He didn't even need any tools or any preparation time, he only needed to listen to it once and then he could almost perfectly disguise the other person's voice, which meant that in the fight against Kidd the Monster Thief, the voice was something less trustworthy than appearance. ”

"And then there's the prop he's used," Officer Nakamori picked up a document from the table next to him and flipped it up himself. "Look at the third page, which is the information used by Kidd the Monster Thief. The first is the first one - his long-range shooting weapon, a poker-like gun. ”

"Compared to the usual magic prop poker gun, the firing system of this poker gun has obviously been greatly modified, and what can be fired is not just light things like cards. If you talk about the power system alone, you can even think that this poker gun has the lethality of a pistol. However, due to the restrictions of our country's police regulations, we still cannot use pistols, but can only use props such as batons to fight against them. When facing a poker gun, be mentally prepared and don't be afraid - even a pistol with weapon-level kinetic energy production ability will not fire a good poker card, as long as it does not hit the skin, it will not hurt particularly much. However, if the opponent fires something like a hook, it may not only affect the movement of the person who is hit, but also cause damage such as broken bones if it hits a sensitive area. So I ask you, when facing this poker gun, you must pay attention to whether the opponent's gun has a poker card or a hook or something like that, and decide how to fight it based on that. If the opposite side is using a playing card, then rush straight up and don't be afraid of pain. And if it's a hook, then be sure to prepare the attack from different directions with your companions. After all, we have ample evidence that Kidd the Thief's poker gun is capable of firing hooks, but it takes a certain amount of time for these hooks to be removed from the muzzle, during which time Kidd the Thief is not capable of continuing to shoot with the poker gun. During this window, you can go straight to it. ”

"In addition to this, it is important to watch out for this thing," said Officer Nakamori, drawing a small ball. "The condition of this ball is special because there are three situations for this ball - the first is a flashbang, the second is a smoke bomb, and the last is a hypnotic gas incapacitating agent. In the case of these three things, the methods of dealing with them are different, but if you are in the observation hall, you don't need to worry about smoke bombs and hypnotic gas incapacitations, because we have a corresponding disposal record. So the main thing to deal with is a flashbang. If Kidd the Monster Thief does throw a flashbang, then all you have to do is crouch down and do nothing, you know? ”

"Don't you have to do anything?" A policeman was stunned.

"Yes, you don't have to do anything," Officer Nakamori said in a nutshell. "Just squat down after encountering a flashbang!"

The policemen looked at each other with a somewhat puzzled look, but then they all chose to obey.

……

At the same time, the central air-conditioned main control room.

"Turn off the separate air duct in the observation hall," Jiroyoshi Suzuki ordered, looking at the staff member sitting in the control seat in front of him. "Then cut the heating in half."

"In that case, the temperature in the observation hall will drop rapidly," the staff member wondered. "Even a short period of abandonment of heating can cause the Observatory to be uncomfortably cold for a long time......"

"Just do it!" Jiroji Suzuki frowned. "As long as the temperature in the observation hall is controlled above 5 degrees Celsius."

The corners of the "five degrees Celsius ......" staff twitched, but they still sighed, and then turned off the central air-conditioning air supply system in the observation hall. As requested, the central air conditioning has been stopped for heating the observation hall, but the heating needs to be manually turned off after going to the observation hall. ”

"Got it." Jiroyoshi Suzuki nodded and left the place.

……

At the same time, somewhere.

The disguised thief Kidd looked at the GPS in his hand and frowned - the speed at which the airship returned to Japan was significantly slower than the data it collected when the airship first departed from Japan.

In the morning, Kidd had already noticed that there was an abnormality in speed, but he thought it was because the airship was in an ascending state, so he couldn't accelerate with all his might. But now that the airship has already entered a state of level flight, the distance traveled is still a clear indication that the speed of the airship is in an abnormal state - even compared to the fully loaded airship when it first set off, the speed is significantly slower.

And, not only that, but the airship was also slower to take off than the previous ones. It's not much, but it's noticeable.

Is this accidental? Or is it ...... Did something happen to the airship? But if a similar situation really occurs, Suzuki Jiroyoshi will show some breath, and the airship may not choose to continue to return to Japan directly as it is now, but will most likely be overhauled in New Zealand.

A look of confusion flashed across Kidd's face, and his hands unconsciously clenched into fists.
