Chapter 371 Kaito Kuroba: Our organization should be very righteous, right?

……

In the reception room.

"Um, hello, hello."

Kaito Kuroba placed his hands on his lap, maintaining a fake smile as he looked at the two people in front of him.

"Don't be nervous, we'll all be family from now on."

Qi Ming came up behind Kaito Kuroba and patted the latter on the shoulder, but this only made Kaito Kuroba feel even more nervous.

Kaito Kuroba swallowed hard.

Is this the organization's headquarters? I don't feel like I've seen anyone here.

Have they all gone to carry out their missions?

"Speaking of which, I was so excited about becoming the boss today that I forgot to call you over to listen to our NBT organization's new business."

NBT?

Upon hearing Qi Ming's words, Kuroba Kaito nodded naturally. This was the first time he had learned the name of this organization.

However, a moment later, Kaito Kuroba shuddered violently and turned to look at Qi Ming in surprise.

What did he just hear?

Boss?

Is this person the boss?

But what does it mean to have just become the boss?

Where did the former boss go? And what are their current business adjustments?

Having been exposed to so much important information all at once, Kaito Kuroba's mind suddenly went blank.

Qi Ming coughed lightly twice, then looked up at the ceiling at a 45-degree angle, enjoying Kaito Kuroba's envious gaze.

A moment later, Qi Ming looked at Vermouth and said:

"By the way, Vermouth, you've also met Kaito Kuroba. Is it this face that suits your taste?"

x, xp?

With all the information in his mind dissipating, Kaito Kuroba turned his head and looked at Vermouth with a horrified expression.

Although he knew all along that he would have to pay a price to infiltrate the organization and obtain intelligence.

But he never imagined that what he would have to give up was his virginity!

Seeing Kuroba Kaito's poker face suddenly collapse, Vermouth knew that this man had believed Qi Ming's nonsense.

Suppressing her gaze from Qi Ming, Vermouth, overwhelmed by a strange sense of shame, asked Kaito Kuroba:

"I want to ask you something."

"Um, senior, please speak."

Kaito Kuroba took a few deep breaths to relax his tense muscles, and his expression returned to normal.

"Although you are as aloof and beautiful as a rose with thorns, I am still focused on my studies at my age."

"..."

Vermouth, her hand still under the table, couldn't help but pinch her thigh hard. After a moment, she asked:

"Your father, Kuroba Toichi, was the first Phantom Thief Kid?"

"..."

Kaito Kuroba's muscles, which had just relaxed, stiffened again.

It's quite normal that the other party knew his father was the first Phantom Thief Kid.

After all, during the time he fought with the organization's members, Kaito Kuroba knew that they had discovered he wasn't his father.

It's estimated that he connected with his father, a famous magician, through his own name.

"Yes."

Kaito Kuroba nodded in agreement.

"But now that I think about it, my father might have been a bit paranoid. After all, revenge only leads to more revenge, and I think I should let it go."

Of course, this is a lie; he only said it to increase the organization's trust in him.

The person who opposed you before was my father, it has nothing to do with me.

He still believes that Qi Ming's organization is the same organization he is dealing with.

"..."

Vermouth didn't quite understand what Kaito Kuroba was saying.

What is the meaning of endless cycles of revenge? What does it mean to let go?

"Is there something fishy about Kuroba Toichi's death?"

Vermouth asked Kaito Kuroba with some curiosity.

"..."

Kaito Kuroba fell silent after Vermouth's words.

Was my father's death suspicious?

Isn't it you who killed him? What's so strange about it?

Feeling cold and shivering, should I open my mouth wide?

"Kuroba Touichi?"

Upon hearing the two mention this name, Qi Ming suddenly realized what was happening and checked the rankings.

He remembered that this person's name seemed to be on the leaderboard.

After confirming that Kuroba Touichi's name was still on the leaderboard, Qi Ming asked the two of them with some doubt.

"Isn't Kuroba Toichi still alive?"

The system has indicated that dead people shouldn't appear on the leaderboard; if someone on the leaderboard is killed, their name will disappear.

After all, if dead people were included, this ranking list would have been full long ago.

Upon hearing Qi Ming's words, both Vermouth and Kaito Kuroba were taken aback.

"Kuroba Toichi/Dad isn't dead?"

"Yes."

Seeing Kaito Kuroba's surprised expression, Qi Ming said somewhat irritably:

Why do you seem so surprised to hear that your father isn't dead?

"No, no, but didn't you already kill him?"

Seeing that Qi Ming's expression seemed genuine, Kaito Kuroba could no longer remain calm and asked a question.

"Did we kill Kuroba Touichi?"

Qi Ming scratched his head and looked at Vermouth.

Vermouth also looked completely bewildered.

"No? Kuroba Touichi is the one who taught me my skills. If the organization wanted to deal with him, I should know."

She has been with the organization the longest, but I've never heard of the organization ever taking any action against Kuroba Touichi.

"Teach you skills?"

The scene shifted, and this time Qi Ming and Kuroba Kaito looked at Vermouth with surprise.

Vermouth nodded.

"My disguise and voice-changing skills were taught to me by Kuroba Toichi."

"what?"

Kaito Kuroba looked at Vermouth in disbelief.

In other words, I should call this woman... Senior Sister?

Kaito Kuroba quickly shook his head.

It seems that this is not the important thing right now.

I have a feeling that something is wrong.

Kaito Kuroba, recalling Qi Ming's words, suddenly asked:

"By the way, I wanted to ask, if our organization is no longer collecting gems and pursuing immortality, then what are we doing now?"

"Gemstones, in pursuit of immortality?"

Qi Ming then looked at the oldest one there, Vermouth.

"Are you from that organization you mentioned?"

"Yes."

Vermouth realized something was wrong and spoke slowly.

"I have a feeling that you've mistaken us for that organization. We're their adversaries."

“…It seems like that.”

Kaito Kuroba is feeling very conflicted right now.

All he wants now is to travel back in time and slap his overthinking self twice.

At this moment, Kaito Kuroba really wished he were a simple-minded idiot.

Qi Ming patted Kuroba Kaito on the shoulder and said:

"Don't worry, Xiao Hei. I've already informed that organization you mentioned. We're all brothers now."

"Even though your father isn't dead, that doesn't matter. Just take them down."

"Ah."

Kaito Kuroba nodded slightly in response.

Although there are still many things that are unclear, the heavy weight on his heart has been lifted.

"Eh, if that's the case, then what exactly does our organization do?"

Setting aside his doubts for the time being, Kaito Kuroba asked Vermouth.

Although they had infiltrated the wrong organization, since their father was willing to teach this woman his skills, they were also enemies of that organization.

In other words, our organization must be a fairly righteous organization, right?

Vermouth gave Kaito Kuroba's expectant gaze a strange look, and said calmly:

"Bank robbers, assassins, shop owners."

"..."

"……What?"
