Um?

Is this gone?

Kuroba Kaito has been counting the people he has seen in his mind. So far, including himself, there are 9 people in total, and there is still 1 person missing.

As for this person, Kuroba Kaito didn't have a deep impression of him, but he still remembered him as the yellow-haired man who was a cameraman by profession.

If the yellow-haired man is not in his room, where can he go?

Outside the villa is a dark and silent forest. Although there are no large beasts, except for the lake in the eastern suburbs in the distance, there is no scenery to enjoy nearby.

Just when Kuroba Kaito was about to go back to the building to explore more, the integrated tower on the side of the villa caught his attention.

The skylight on the red wall is open, and the convex edge extends below the skylight, so you can go over and explore it.

He continued to climb along the ledge to the right, came to the skylight, stuck his head in, and saw what was going on inside the tower.

Inside is a space with an extremely high ceiling, and there is a huge seven-pointed star pattern on the floor below.

At the seven corners of the seven-pointed star, brackets are placed respectively, and huge portrait photos are fixed on the brackets.

There is a heptagon within the seven-pointed star pattern, and within the heptagon is a purple round table painted with complex patterns.

Kuroba Kaito used the moonlight to make a distinction and found that the photos below were all of the same person, and he should be the target of tonight's seance - Yahara Huang.

"So, this is the 'meditation room'?"

After Kuroba Kaito determined the purpose of the room, he immediately felt that it was a bit interesting. He planned to go down and check it out first, just to check it out in advance.

Relying on the agility gained from his sub-professional training, he jumped directly from the nearly 4-meter-high skylight without the need for a ladder and landed calmly.

Standing up and looking around, he found that there was no difference between what he saw above.

In other words, because every picture on the bracket below is a huge photo taken by Yahara Huang during his lifetime, and every face is smiling at him, it feels a little oozing.

Kuroba Kaito walked around the room again, but didn't find anything new.

Just when he was about to leave through the door, the door handle suddenly turned and made a rattling sound.

At this moment, Kuroba Kaito was shocked.

The Kaitou bloodline in his body was instantly activated. He didn't even want to explain, so he subconsciously found a place to hide.

With a quick glance, he saw the bottom of the huge round table.

The round table was covered with a huge velvet tablecloth, the edge of which almost touched the floor, just enough to completely block him.

right here!

I saw Kuroba Kaito's body aiming under the round table and suddenly diving in. After entering, he did not forget to smooth the slightly shaking tablecloth with his backhand.

At this time, the door to the meditation room was also pushed open.

Not long after, the door was closed again, but footsteps had already broken in.

Kuroba Kaito crouched under the table, listening carefully to what was going on outside.

The visitor did not turn on the light or come near the round table, but walked straight to the poster, not knowing what he was doing.

Hearing that the people outside had taken their positions, Kuroba Kaito quietly lifted the tablecloth from under the round table and saw the back of the person coming.

Under the moonlight, a man with yellow hair was tinkering with something behind the poster.

It's him!

Kuroba Kaito immediately understood that the only yellow-haired man who was not in the room just now was the one who planned to cause trouble.

Judging from its movements, it seems that some kind of mechanism is set up on the back of the poster, and it should be intended to play a role in the subsequent spirit seance ceremony.

As for what mechanism it is, you can wait until the yellow-haired man leaves before checking it out.

In order to avoid being discovered, Kuroba Kaito put the tablecloth down again and continued to squat under the round table and wait quietly for the yellow-haired man to leave.

However, while waiting, Kuroba Kaito noticed something was wrong with the floor under his feet.

There is a height difference at the joints of the floor.

If it were an ordinary person, they might not be able to discover it.

But Kuroba Kaito is Kaitou Kidd after all, and his body's ability to perceive external information is at an absolute T1 level, so it is normal to find abnormalities.

Usually in this case, the decorator's skills are so poor that even the floor is uneven.

Or this is a floor door with a cave underneath.

Kuroba Kaito lay on the ground, took out a small tool from his arms, inserted it into the gap in the floor and clicked it to confirm that it was a floor door.

Use a small tool to pry hard, and the floor door rises slightly, and the stench of decay immediately hits your nostrils.

Well……

Kuroba Kaito almost made a sound, but fortunately he reacted in time and stopped the sound in time.

What's down here?

Why does it stink so much?

Kuroba Kaito forced himself to hold his breath, knelt on the ground with his waist bent, and slowly raised the floor.

As the floor door is raised, an incredible thing lies in the small space under the floor.

This is……

Kuroba Kaito frowned and stared for a few seconds before suddenly realizing something.

His pupils shrank instantly, and his body was in a state of extreme shock and stress, and he subconsciously wanted to stand up.

But he forgot that he was still under the round table, which was not a good place to stand up.

Bang!

There was a muffled sound, and the back of Kuroba Kaito's head collided with the table.

His head suddenly sank and he fainted.

…

Time passed minute by minute.

When the clock on the wall reached 7:50, Qin Zhibo had read all the "Dark Magic Girl" comics released so far.

In fact, if you use the [Book Investigation] skill, you can read these comics in a few minutes.

But Qin Zhibo spent some extra time to confirm whether the painting style and sentence style of each comic had changed.

There will be situations where the creator is relatively successful in the early stage of creation, but when the later stage of creation is not going well, he will leave the creative task to others.

Known as a gunman by people in the world of martial arts.

However, after browsing the comics, Qin Zhibo found no signs of this.

At this moment, Koizumi Hongzi stood up at the desk and said.

"It's almost time, it's time to gather in the lobby..."

"Um."

Qin Zhibo glanced at the time, stood up from the bed, and stretched his waist.
