Chapter 580: Are you here to deliver food?

   Chapter 580 You're here to deliver food

   Kidd is always being chased by the police, by detectives, by fans of younger brothers and sisters... He is very familiar with all kinds of evasion methods.

   But like now, chasing after others in turn, is not very skilled.

   Moreover, beyond his expectations: Jiang Xia seemed to be quiet and not good at fighting, but he didn't expect that he could not only dodge and fight, but also run very fast. With such a rapid movement under the cover of the trees, Kidd couldn't catch up for a while, and it was difficult to aim the anesthesia gun.

   "..." If this goes on like this, Jiang Xia's companion who went to buy tires will probably come back...

  Thinking of this, Kidd raised the muzzle and adjusted the button on it, ready to take the risk of hanging on the branch and use the wire to speed up the movement.

   But just as he raised his head, a shadow suddenly appeared diagonally above.

  …some giant bird seems to have fallen into the woods.

The thought of    just flashed, and Kidd's eyes suddenly stagnate.

Ahead of   , on the only way Jiang Xia ran, a dark shadow suddenly appeared.

  ——A huge wing suddenly stretched out from behind the tree, hula-hura, like a long-awaited Venus flytrap, precisely catching the fast-running detective who didn’t have time to change direction.

   Jiang Xia didn't seem to have expected this kind of ambush, and slammed into the wing, followed by the person and was swept away by the closed wings, disappearing from Kidd's field of vision.

   Kidd was startled.

   "..." Fog Tengu?

  …Misty Tengu!

   Although looking at it from Kidd's perspective, the body of the owner of the wings, and Jiang Xia, who was swept away later, were all blocked by the closed wings and trunk.

   But the shape and color of the pair of wings, he would never admit wrong. More importantly... in this world, there is probably no other creature with such huge wings.

   After subconsciously coming to this conclusion, Kidd trotted closer, walked around the tree trunk, and glanced back.

   I saw the wrapped wings of the misty tengu, which had been loosened at this time, revealing the very difficult detective.

  Jiang Xia's body swayed, he closed his eyes and planted to the ground, and was caught by the foggy dog ​​like a snack.

   followed, the pair of dark golden pupils unique to youkai lifted up and looked in the direction of Kidd.

  "..." It's really him.

   Kidd was a little surprised instinctively: "I haven't seen you for a while, I thought you were being troubled by the witch again."

   Then suddenly remembered the business, and quickly ran to Jiang Xia who was wearing a foggy vest, looking at the body that was still in his hand: "...he is alright."

  Jiang Xia driving the foggy dog ​​is less puppet, originally did not want to take care of it.

   But glanced at the tranquilizer gun in Kidd's hand, worrying that the phantom thief would fill the body with needles. So after hesitating for a moment, Jiang Xia secretly piled up a pair of fangs with puppet clay, opened his mouth to reveal a little, and gave Kidd a look.

   and succinctly edited: "Anesthetic. Enough for half a day's sleep."

   Kidd was startled.

  ...Although he had seen the fangs of the mist tengu before, he thought it was just a part used to tear human flesh.

   I didn't expect to be able to inject anesthesia... Could it be that it evolved when hunting humans in the past?

Kidd carefully looked at the pair of sharp and terrifying fangs that were a bit like the legendary vampire, then glanced at Jiang Xia's body, hesitated for a moment, and put away the anesthesia gun: "Then I'd better not pierce it, the dose is too large. It's easy to hurt the brain - you may not know it, this detective is very famous in our human world, and he has a good mind, and he can't pay for it if he breaks it... Well, your anesthetic should have no side effects."

   said, like checking artworks, he wanted to poke Jiang Xia's head with his fingertips.

   stretched out his hand, and before he could find it, Wutiangou moved slightly and moved Jiang Xia, who was "anesthetized", to the side, as if he didn't want him to touch it.

  “?”

   Kidd was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly became alert - Wutiangu wouldn't count Jiang Xia caught as prey.

  ...Fortunately, he was prepared.

   Kidd sighed inwardly, flipped his wrist, and skillfully took out a necklace inlaid with large gems.

   - This time, he didn't steal it from somewhere else, but pried it out of the safe left by his dad.

   According to legend, the foggy dog ​​likes to **** away humans and hang them on trees to dry and eat.

   But in fact, according to Kidd's observation, this rather civilized-looking foggy tengu in front of him seems to prefer all kinds of treasures than humans.

   Every time the gems or other collections that have been gnawed by the foggy dog, the color will become dull, as if they were hollowed out. And after a while, they will slowly recover over time.

   In the beginning, Kidd also pondered the principle of this change, but has been unable to understand the mystery.

   Until later, when he met two strange witches and opened the door to a new world, Kidd gave up his studies completely - it is normal to not understand things in the magic world.

  ... In short, since I don't want the mist tengu to eat people, I also don't want to feed the mist tengu.

   In addition to committing crimes diligently, Kidd also rummaged through all the valuable things in his home, and picked one or two with him every time he went out, so as to peacefully dissuade him from eating dried human meat strips when the foggy dog ​​went out to hunt.

   Of course the same is true this time.

   "This is the sea blue heart that my dad photographed in France before. It's no worse than the ones I usually steal..."

   Kidd glanced at the gem, and then at Jiang Xia, who was holding the foggy dog, and negotiated in a low voice: "Would you like to exchange? I think eating gems is more in line with your elegant image than **** human flesh."

   Jiang Xia: "..."

   He glanced at the gem.

   Kidd seems to have some misunderstandings about the ghosts' recipe.

   In fact, ordinary treasures do not have the energy core he wants.

   In this world, there are energy cores, things that can strengthen ghosts and shikigami, but they are actually stolen loot.

   In addition to Kidd, the other thieves stole a few things, but it was much less than what Kidd stole. Maybe this is some kind of world rule, just like when Jiang Xia first came to this world and Kudo-san had no sign of turning into Conan, he couldn't pick up ghosts at all...

   In short, now, the gem that Kidd handed over looks good, but there is no energy core in it.

   It seems that the son stealing from his father is not stealing...

   But fortunately, Kidd has other things that can be exchanged.

  ——Jiang Xia remembered that since the last time, this phantom thief was dragged to the castle by the witches for an indescribable day, and there was a little sign of awakening his magic power. And magic power and energy core are equivalent...

  …

   Kidd is holding out his hand, praying with a little pain in his conscience that his dad will not care about this gem, after all, after the foggy tengu is finished, it usually returns.

   As he was thinking about it, he saw that Misty Tengu's hand missed the gem and placed it precisely on his wrist.
