Tomorrow is the night of the grand opening of the Suzuki family's new five-star hotel. And of course, to celebrate, Jirokichi Suzuki has decided to put his newly bought jewel on display in the main hall.

"Suzuki-san, what is the relationship between the jewel and the Suzuki's new five-star hotel?" A reporter held a microphone at Jirokichi's face.

"What? That jewel has nothing do to with the hotel!" Jirokichi's loud voice boomed around the area.

"That's an invitation to KID! I want him to come have a look inside my new five-star hotel! Hahahaha!" Jirokichi held his head high and continue to boast about his wealth.

Meanwhile, back in a police station in Ekoda, a furious Nakamori keibu slammed his coffee mug down on his desk upon watching the live news in his office.

"Jirokichi Suzuki!" Nakamori Ginzo's voice was loud enough to make all the other officers jump. "Stop inviting an internationally wanted criminal to go steal your expensive jewels!" Nakamori Ginzo roared.

"Wha— Why are you shouting, dad!" Aoko stood at the doorway, hands covering both her ears.

"Ahoko! You're going to burst my eardrums!" Kaito stood behind her, hands on both his ears as well.

Nakamori Ginzo just huffed, sitting down on his chair with a loud thump.

On the news, Jirokichi was still babbling about how his new hotel cost a fortune in front of the reporters.

"KID!" Suddenly snatching a microphone from a reporter's hand, Jirokichi leaned towards the camera.

"You better come to the grand opening tomorrow! I'll even give you the jewel for free! Consider it as reimbursement!" Jirokichi had a wide smile on his face. "I'll be waiting for you."

"For FREE?!" Nakamori Ginzo was practically fuming with anger now. He switched off the television and marched out of his office.

"We are going to catch KID tomorrow! Get the preparations ready!" Nakamori Ginzo ordered.

"But keibu! Suzuki-san said—" Takagi started.

"I don't care what that old man said! We are going to catch KID no matter what!" Nakamori yelled at Takagi's face (poor Takagi).

Just as the officers scrambled to prepare for tomorrow's heist, a loud swishing sound was heard.

"Whose helicopter is that!" Now standing outside the front door of the station, Nakamori stared daggers at the currently landing helicopter.

"You can't land here! You're disrupting the traffic!" Nakamori's voice was lost in the wind.

Jirokichi Suzuki stepped out from the helicopter.

"Wow! How did he get here so fast? He was on the news just moments ago!" Aoko gaped.

"You can do anything when you're rich," Kaito stated bluntly.

"Nakamori! You saw my interview on TV?" Jirokichi's grin was wider than KID's. "KID is coming tomorrow!"

"And you want the task force to be there. I'm already on it." Nakamori eyed the helicopter with distaste. "Get that helicopter off the road."

"I knew it. It's a great thing I came here in person." Ignoring the helicopter comment, Jirokichi continued, "The task force won't be needed tomorrow. I won't have you guys scaring KID away."

"What—!" Nakamori yelled in disbelief.

"You heard me. I don't want any police tomorrow, but you and your family can attend as guests for the grand opening." Jirokichi handed him a shiny invitation.

"This is KID we're talking about! It's my job to—" Nakamori began while Aoko accepted the invitation with a small smile.

"I invited KID to come. He's a guest." Jirokichi brushed Nakamori off and started walking back to his helicopter.

"Remember, no police tomorrow!" Jirokichi yelled as the helicopter started to ascend, leaving a raging Nakamori Gonzo standing there below with Aoko and Kaito.

"Jirokichi Suzuki—!!!"

The night of the grand opening.

KID in full regalia stood on a rooftop of a nearby building, spying on the new hotel with a pair of binoculars.

"What are you planning, Suzuki-san?" There was no police, just as Jirokichi ordered. Only a massive crowd of reporters taking pictures with their camera flashes on.

KID smirked. Of course he knows this is a trap. He's just going to grab the jewel and leave, hopefully not activating any traps set up to catch him. Although he didn't spot any even after scouting the hotel. Weird.

"Let's go see what the old man wants." With that said, KID jumped, activating his glider and flew towards the hotel.
