After Kaito's winning, the Boss presses a button to reveal his weapons cache inside the pool table and holds him at gunpoint. Jii cuts the power allowing Kaito to use the cover of night to expose the criminals to a paralysis dust for KID to steal the cue. Hasura notes to him that Kid's notice was to steal from 'Hasura', and "Kaito" won the match so the cue 'belongs' to Kaito and not Hasura, rendering his theft void and 'returning' the cue to "Kaito's" possession. The Organized Crime Division arrives to arrest the gun smugglers with Hasura agreeing to testify, and bids farewell to a great player. Jii mounts his returned cue on a holster on the wall, and Kaito lets Aoko win a friendly game. | After Kaito's winning, the Boss presses a button to reveal his weapons cache inside the pool table and holds him at gunpoint.

Plot
After hearing how Jii was hustled out of a gem-encrusted pool cue, Kaito brings him and Aoko for an undercover theft/retrieval.
Story
While playing a round pool with Aoko, Kaito is harassed by a goon who warns that his Boss will buy the Blue Parrot Billiards Club, owned by Jii himself. Jii remembers playing a great billiards player, Tsuujirou Hasura, who also happens to works for the Boss of the goon from earlier. After hearing how Jii was hustled out of his gem-encrusted pool cue, Kaito brings him and Aoko for an undercover theft/retrieval. KID sends an advanced notice of his theft to Hasura, and Jii brings the pair to the pool bar with Hasura; the only catch is that Kaito and Aoko pretend to be married university students to be able to enter. Kaito plays a few rounds where he loses each and in his last ante wagers Jii's club and Hasura's bejeweled cued. Aoko abruptly arrives inebriated after having drank a couple Martinis and plays on the piano to a tune matching Kaito's rhythm and Kaito wins using a spectacular pool technique his father taught him as a boy.
