Ep. 12: Kid kehrt nach drei Monaten zurück, um den gefälschten Sternbaum-Juwel eines Ladenbesitzers zu stehlen

12

Three months have passed since Kid last committed a crime, and people are beginning to wonder where he has gone. A scheming store owner sends out a fake Phantom Thief Kid notice claiming that he is going to steal the stores very valuable star tree jewel, which is supposed to be donated to the orphanage after Christmas. When spectators start showing up hoping to get a glance of Kid, the store manager starts selling Kid merchandise. When the real Kid learns of the charade, despite having a cold and getting ready for a Christmas party, he decides to make the store owners wish come true. A fake Phantom Thief is hired and gets caught by the cops, but then the real Kaito shows up. He uses rockets at the base of the tree to send the tree crashing into the store, forcing the store owner to use all the money he just gained from the Kid merchandise on repairs. He then confiscates the star and vows to Detective Nakamori that they will be each others biggest foes the rest of their lives, even if there is a bit of a lapse in time occasionally from then on out.
