Transform randomly in Kexue World

Chapter 186 The opening is imminent

Although she was doubtful about Martin's words, after hearing that the prize of the Holy Grail War was the universal wishing machine, Sonoko also participated with great interest.

Martin then talked about the issue of summoning followers and the holy relics.

"Since the summoning itself is performed by the Great Holy Grail, the Master does not need to hold a large-scale ceremony that is too troublesome. However, if you want to push the battle in a favorable direction, you must prepare a catalyst and carefully select the summoned servants."

"A catalyst is an item that is closely related to the hero during his lifetime. It is also generally called a holy relic in the industry. If there is no holy relic, the holy widow will be used... Well, it can only be summoned based on the compatibility between the master and the servant. .”

"Holy relic...?" Suzuki Sonoko, who had already heard Martin introduce too many proper nouns, was a little confused, and even felt like she had returned to class.

"For example, antiques related to ancient heroes are similar to Qin Shihuang's crown, Miyamoto Musashi's sword, and the dining table of the Knights of the Round Table." Martin gave an example: "By the way, Sonoko, does your family have any collection of antiques with provenance?"

In his impression, the gems and artworks collected by the Suzuki family in order to seduce Kaitou Kidd are enough to open an art museum - no, the Suzuki family really has an art museum in the episode "Skywalk"; but I don't know if the Suzuki family has one. Are there historical museums or any of the gems collected by the Suzuki family that have any historical origins?

And Conan is also thinking about whether, as a high school detective, he can summon Sherlock Holmes by virtue of his compatibility. Although summoning other famous detectives in history or literature is also very good, what Conan wants most is still Sherlock Holmes - even if he fights. Even if you don't win the Holy Grail War, you can also ask Mr. Holmes to investigate the Black Organization with him!
But when it comes to using holy relics... Sherlock Holmes is not a real historical figure. Would it be useful to get a copy of "Sherlock Holmes" from home?It's not even an antique...an antique?correct!You can use that!
Conan suddenly took out his earphone in a hurry and dialed a number without caring about it in front of everyone.

It was now twelve o'clock at midnight, and Conan's call had been waiting for a few minutes. He had to wait until someone answered the call.

"Do you know what time it is, you idiot!" As soon as the call was connected, Hattori Heiji's suppressed roar was heard. It was clear that he wanted to curse but didn't want to disturb his family.

"Hattori, it's me! Conan!" Conan said a little anxiously: "I have something urgent. Do you have the phone number of Mr. Kanaya's family?"

Hiroyuki Kanaya is also a Sherlock Holmes enthusiast. He holds a gathering of Sherlock Holmes enthusiasts every year at the hotel he runs, and gives out a prize - the first edition of "A Study in Scarlet".

It's a pity that Hiroyuki Kanaya was excluded from the Conan fan gathering this year.Later, Conan anesthetized Hattori Heiji to solve the case, and revealed a flaw, and Hattori Heiji discovered his identity.

After that, Hiroyuki Kanaya's family expressed their gratitude to Hattori Heiji and proposed to donate the first edition of the book to Hattori Heiji.

But as a high school detective who is unmoved by fame and fortune, Hattori Heiji never charges a commission fee for solving crimes. It is all charity work, and he will not accept the first edition of the book - after all, that thing can be very expensive.

The first edition of the so-called "A Study in Scarlet" was actually serialized in a magazine called "Beeton's-Christmas-annual" in 1887, which was a magazine similar to "The Reader" and "Beeton's Christmas Annual". Lin magazine.

Conan Doyle's work was not favored by anyone at first, and he could not find a publisher willing to publish it independently. In the end, Conan Doyle had to submit it to this magazine for a royalties of 25 pounds.

After more than a hundred years, this common magazine has become less and less rare. Currently, there are only more than thirty copies left in the world. Some of them have torn out the rest of the articles, leaving only "A Study in Scarlet" of the remaining copies.

For example, the complete "Beaton Christmas Annual" collected by Hiroyuki Kanetani, if put up for auction in this crazy detective-worshiping society, would receive an estimate of 5000 million yen, and the final transaction price is likely to exceed [-] million yen.

"I have an emergency and want to borrow the first edition book for half a day. It's easier to borrow it in your name! But I didn't leave the family's phone number, so I called you to inform you about it and help me find it. Find the phone number!”

It was Hattori Heiji who apparently solved the murder case of Kanaya Hiroyuki, and the family had already proposed to give the first edition of the book to Hattori Heiji, so it should be easier to borrow the book in Hattori Heiji's name.

Hattori Heiji was mumbling, 'Since you are 'Conan', then you should be polite and call me 'Heiji-nii'...' while flipping through his phone book, he found the number he had written down not long ago and informed Kudo. He knew Kudo had a voice changer, so I was too lazy to help him make this call.

"By the way, what's the use of borrowing that antique book? I don't understand your luck..."

"Thank you Hattori. Beep-beep-beep-" Before Hattori Heiji could finish his words, Conan put down the phone, leaving only the blind tone of the phone hitting Hattori Heiji's eardrums.

Hattori Heiji:……

"The first edition of "A Study in Scarlet", using that as a catalyst is really promising." Martin commented: "And Moriarty didn't appear in the first part, so it shouldn't be distorted."

Conan was not surprised that Moriarty could also be summoned, but he gave Martin a strange look: "I just talked about the first edition book on the phone, not what book it was, right?"

"What other book would you want to use?"

"Yes."

Conan couldn't wait to make a second call, and he didn't even bother using the voice changer in front of Suzuki Sonoko. Anyway, Martin often used the voice changer to tease people.

Suzuki Sonoko was also on the phone at this time, asking her father if he had any antiques like heroic relics at home.

Haibara Ai's desire to participate in the Holy Grail War is naturally very strong, but she has no idea about the holy relics, and she doesn't have any favorite ancient heroes. She looked at Martin: "What about you, what are you going to do?"

"Holy relics..." Martin said with a pity in his tone: "If my house was still there, there would be a warehouse full of things that could be used as holy relics."

After all, Martin knows so many characters, plus he has a habit of taking photos and keeping souvenirs.

"As for now, I plan to summon directly based on the appearance. Anyway, I know a lot of big guys, and of course there are also a lot of novice friends. If the summoned one is a novice, then you have to work harder." Martin said to Hui Yuan Ai narrowed his eyes.

"Xingxing summons..." Mao Lilan was also thinking about the issue of holy relics: "My father always said that our family is the descendant of Maori Motonari (a daimyo known for his resourcefulness during the Warring States Period in Japan). If what he said is true, Then can I summon this ancestor according to the summons according to the nature?" "It should be very possible, right?" Martin nodded. Although he had never seen this character when he was in Chaldea, in terms of setting, it should be on the Throne of Heroes. There is a place for him.

However, it is still unknown whether the heroic spirits of this Holy Grail War are summoned from this world or from the Xingyue World. If it is this world...

"But I think Xiaolan might be able to summon the great detective who has become a heroic spirit?"

"Huh?" Conan's call hadn't been answered yet, and he was immediately startled when he heard Martin calling him his nickname.

"Xin, Xinyi? Heroic spirit?" Mao Lilan was even more confused because of the setting that she didn't quite understand: "Isn't it said that heroic spirits are heroes who left legends in history?"

"If the great detective can grow into a well-known great detective in the future, write a book and write a biography and be written into legendary stories, just like Di Renjie and Bao Qingtian, it is best to make another heroic sacrifice. The great detective may become a hero. "." Martin looked at Conan maliciously: "The Heroic Spirit Constellation has no concept of time and is independent of the world's timeline. This means that heroic spirits born in the future may also be summoned in the past."

The more I talk about it, the more likely it seems. After all, Conan was also involved in Martin's transformation today and became a magician. In addition, he can also be regarded as a 'partner of justice'. Maybe he is the template for Shirou Emiya. ?

And Conan instantly realized that there was a bug here: "Wait, as long as I (looked at Sonoko who was still on the phone)... Brother Shinichi can defeat those criminals, I believe he will become a well-known detective in the future. And Hero, doesn’t that mean that as long as we ask the future Shinichi brother who was summoned as a servant for information about those criminals and their weaknesses, we can help Shinichi brother defeat the black organization and ensure that he becomes a Heroic Spirit?"

There are not many people who can't wait to die and send themselves to the Throne of Heroes... Martin was complaining about Conan in his heart and mouth: "For the same reason, if the great detective is destined to be unable to defeat the black organization, he will He won’t appear on the Throne of Heroes, and we can’t summon him to ask for information, and then we won’t be able to help him. The great detective is destined to be killed by the black organization, which is also a perfect cycle.”

"I don't believe it." Conan said while holding the undialed phone in one hand: "With or without the help of this intelligence, Brother Shinichi will definitely be able to defeat those criminals."

"That's right." Mao Lilan looked at Conan with a smile and said in support, "I believe Shinichi can do it!"

"Compared with the forward cycle, I care more about the result of the reverse cycle, which is the grandfather paradox." Haibara Ai also joined the topic: "For example, Kudo Shinichi in the future didn't like me and killed his past self. What will happen, be dragged into an endless loop?”

"Two answers, one is the theory of parallel worlds, that is, the heroic spirit detective in world A killed the living detective in world B, which only resulted in the birth of this heroic spirit in world B, and did not affect world A or even world C or D. Any process.”

Martin answered: "The answer with a more fantasy-themed world view is that it will indeed cause a space-time paradox and cause a huge distortion at the historical node. In order to correct this distortion, the inhibitory force will send other heroic spirits to kill the great detective in advance, so that the living people and the heroic spirits can fight against each other." The detectives have all disappeared and no longer exist in this world.”

Conan rolled his eyes and wanted to complain about why they arranged it for him. Before he spoke, he heard that the call was finally connected. He hurriedly picked up the voice changer and changed it to Hattori Heiji's voice, and hid aside to make a call.

After the two callers finished their calls, they split into two groups. Dr. Ali, Xiaolan and Conan went to borrow the first edition of "A Study in Scarlet". Martin and Xiaoai followed Yuanzi to her house to find out if they had any. A usable holy relic.

Interestingly, when she was at Suzuki Sonoko's house, Sonoko's father, Shiro Suzuki, quietly pulled Sonoko with a worried look on his face and asked her directly if she wanted to participate in the 'spiritual summoning' ceremony.Obviously in today's world view, a wealthy family like the Suzuki family will still know some information even if they don't have a family lineage of magicians.

As soon as she saw her father's face, she knew that he wanted to persuade her not to take risks. Suzuki Sonoko hesitated in a few words, then took Martin's arm and ran to the showroom where his collection was displayed: "Let's go, let me find someone who can The holy relic that summons the most handsome heroic spirit!"

"The most handsome one?" Martin was also a little surprised: "Don't you generally want the strongest one?"

Even if you want to be a nymphomaniac, you should know how important a universal wishing machine that can grant all wishes is, right?

"Let the strongest one go to this little girl. One look at her and you can tell that she has a wish that she must realize no matter what." Suzuki Sonoko looked back at Haibara Ai who was following silently behind.

Despite her usual carefree attitude, Suzuki Sonoko has actually noticed that since she learned about the existence of the wishing machine, this "cold little girl" has become less cold-hearted.

Then Yuanzi held her heart with her hands in ecstasy: "As for me, I just want to have a romantic encounter with a great, handsome and unrestrained ancient hero."

Facts have proved that falling in love does not delay Sonoko from becoming a nymphomaniac at all, even if she and Kyogoku haven't been separated for more than eight hours.

……

Four hours later, the sun had risen in the east, and the group of six people who had gathered arrived at a blue castle.

It was the same old castle that Conan and the little ghosts had just visited not long ago. The difference was that it was now Martin's legal property.

"You actually have a castle?" Suzuki Sonoko, who came here for the first time, stood in front of the gate of the manor and was amazed while looking at the beautiful castle: "Although the yard is smaller than my house, the shape of this castle feels better than Most of my mansions and villas are much nicer.”

Not to mention the mystery and romance of the castle shape, the size alone crushes many modern villas.

Mao Lilan on the side was equally surprised by the scenery here, and told Yuanzi how Martin got this castle.

"I was a little surprised when you were trying to get this castle before. You usually show no interest in property." Holding the box containing the first edition of the book in his hand, Conan looked at Martin and asked, "Did you expect it earlier?" What’s the situation like today?”

"That's right. As long as I continue to stay in this world, situations like today will happen sooner or later." Martin nodded: "We will always need a space suitable for big scenes. Some things are at home (Dr. Ali's house) It’s somewhat inconvenient and attention-grabbing, like last time’s Gigantamax Meowth, and this time’s Holy Grail War.”

"In my experience, intelligence warfare is also the main point of competition in the Holy Grail War. If we summon servants in the city, the enemy may steal our intelligence. Later we can arrange this place as a magic workshop to cover Information can be used as a position to confront the enemy, and after the external enemies are eliminated, it can also be used as a venue for internal competition.”

The Holy Grail War without the castle element is a bit unpalatable in Martin's eyes. It just so happens that this blue castle is also a German-style castle, and the cheating maniac Einzbern family fits their role well as they are preparing for six against one. position.
