	When he gets home, Kaito also sees the news report about Kid's announcement on TV and looks at the portrait of his father [[Toichi Kuroba]], who was a world-famous ~~art~~ magician and illusionist; in his sons's eyes the best in the whole world. He died eight years ago during a stage show, which was ~~put on record~~ by the police as an accident. Kaito recalls a performance by his father that Aoko and he went to when they were both young. Kaito teased little Aoko, whereupon his father admonished him not to annoy the "lady" and explained to him that regardless of what happens and no matter whether the situation looks good or bad, Kaito should never forget his "poker face" - that is, to never let other people guess the cards you hold and to put on a confident face at all times in order to remain in control of the situation. When Kaito, back in the present, touches his father's portrait, it suddenly starts to rotate and thus triggers a mechanism that throws him directly into a secret room full of technical gadgets and old stuff.

	In the meantime, Aoko arrives at the [[Kuroba Residence\|Kuroba's house]] and meets Kaito's mother, [[Chikage Kuroba]]. Aoko finally wants to get back at Kaito and asks her to reveal Kaito's greatest weakness, which she actually does. Both hear the sound of the secret room mechanism and Chikage realizes that Kaito has found his father's room, while Aoko just ~~puzzles unsuspectingly~~ what it could have been. Kaito first looks around the secret room, confused, listens to Toichi's old and unfortunately incomplete tape recording, and, to his own confusion, notices Kaitou Kid's costume inside. Full of unanswered questions, Kaito decides to put on Kid's costume himself, wanting to confront the currently active Kaitou Kid at night on the roof of the Ono Bank, since his father apparently had a connection to him and the phantom thief might have something to do with his death.

	The phantom thief [[Kaitou Kid]], who has ~~been~~ seemingly left the face of the Earth eight years ago, is suddenly active again - as evidenced by the professionally carried out robbery committed by a masked person with a Kid's trademark white top hat and suit, who recently appeared in [[Tokyo]] ~~and~~ witnessed by two guards during a gem theft, who are flabbergasted by his ~~apparently~~ invisible ~~body~~.

His attempt to distract her with a doll of himself, trying to catch a peek under her skirt proves her assumption right, whereupon she chases him across the classroom with a mop, despite the fact that the math lesson with their teacher [[Erika Konno]] has already started.

	Despite their argument, both are able to casually answer the teacher's questions, which only leaves her frustrated after Kaito fires a playing card gun across the room. Aoko then gets a hold of Kaito's ego by telling him that all his tricks are nothing compared to the performances that the Kaitou Kid ~~pulls~~ off on a regular basis, whereupon he apparently disappears in front of everyone's eyes, for which he gets applause even from the teacher. Aoko, on the other hand, is certain that Kaito will never be able to compete with Kid. ~~Her~~ father, inspector Nakamori~~, meanwhile~~, is in a state of excitement at the [[Minato Police Station]] because Kaitou Kid has already sent his next announcement: At exactly 11.54 pm he wants to steal the "[[Eye of the Moon]]" from [[Ono Bank]]. Nakamori prefers Kid's note to show up over an urgent investigation into a murder, and prepares to catch ~~it down~~ for good after eight years of inactivity.
