[Pause. Thinking. Oh yeah, a few weeks ago he'd responded to a message sent from a gear registered 'Kaitou Kid', and held a conversation with a supposed phantom thief.
[First he's got this surprised look on his face as he stares at you for a good two seconds. Then he just laughs, because wow, all this time he's been talking with another thief? No wonder Kay's friends with this kid.]
Looks like you really do have a lot to explain. [Not said in a 'tell me everything so I can lock you up forever' voice, no, more like an amused 'orly?' voice.]
[... oh good, he doesn't seem angry. Kaito just grins and leans back against a tree. It's a very weak grin, though. And it almost seems as though he's trying to use it to mask something else]
My dad died when I was nine. He was a magician, and he died in a stage accident. Or... I guess that's what's the police said.
[A shrug]
He was Kaitou Kid before me. And because of that, he was murdered.
[No more laughing, or even smiling, at this. This hits really close to home, especially after everything Kay told him.] Much like what happened with the Yatagarasu...
I'm sorry, Kaito.
[History repeats itself. That is, if 'Kaitou Kid' is anything like 'Yatagarasu'. Just what kind of thief is Kaitou Kid? He'd spoken to him once before, sure, but that's not enough to truly understand a person's motives...
...also, if he's an international criminal, how has Byrne not heard of him? Unless it's another case of alternate worlds or something.]

Pandora.
... it's supposed to be a gem that grants immortality. The guys who killed by dad killed him because of that stupid gem. [There's an emphasis on stupid; it's obvious he doesn't like the idea of Pandora existing at all]
[Pause. Not sure what to say at first. The idea of a group resorting to murder so they can get their greedy paws on some rare gem...that's just. Oh does that make Byrne angry just thinking about it. He wants to say so many things but doesn't know how to say them. Something like 'I'm sorry' or 'I can understand where you're coming from' or 'PEOPLE SUCK'...
He can, however, say this with all honesty.]
...Your father must have been very noble to stand up to them like that.
He was. [Despite not having the foggiest idea why Toichi had become a thief in the first place... he believes wholeheartedly that his dad was a good person]
...
Kaito?

Kind like how the identity of the Yatagarasu has to forever remain in shadow.

... kinda like Kaitou Kid's identity. [and a pause, seeing if he recognizes that name]

I steal jewels. To draw out the guys who killed my dad.

And I'm gonna destroy it.

Your father was looking for it for the same reason?

He got in their way. He prevented them from getting it. So they had to get rid of hi.
