Conan: I'm just an ordinary novelist

"Wait a moment!"

"Hey! What are those two talking about? Didn't you hear me shut up?!"

What a hassle.

The gun pressed against his head still smelled of gunpowder from the previous shooting.

Yun Xianhe coughed twice quietly, then looked up at the kidnapper in front of him apologetically:

"I'm sorry, my brother was a little scared and I was trying to comfort him."

Conan, who was hugged, cooperated very well and buried his face in Yun Xianhe's arms.

Yun Xianhe's body stiffened slightly and he looked down at the other person.

Looking at the round back of the head, he hesitantly reached out and scratched it.

It feels pretty good?

I hope you are a good boy.

The tall and thin kidnapper looked at the fever-reducing patch on Yun Xianhe's forehead and his miserable face, then glanced at the shivering (?) Conan, and smiled with some contempt.

As a kidnapper, the fear of the crowd is a compliment to him.

The thin kidnapper smiled meaningfully:

"Be honest, got it, kid?"

The brave man nodded cooperatively, closed his mouth, and made a zippering motion.

Conan, who was held in Yun Xianhe's arms, wanted to get up, but Yun Xianhe picked him up and put him inside.

He was about to say something when the other party accurately covered his mouth with his hand.

The little detective, who felt like he had been controlled, looked at the somewhat unfamiliar Yun Xianhe with his half-moon eyes, and finally calmed down.

Forget it, as long as Brother Xianhe is here, there will definitely be no problem.

Yun Xianhe ignored Conan's gaze and observed everyone in the car calmly.

really weird.

Apart from the stubborn kid next to her, why isn't the woman next door afraid at all?

She’s not a martial artist either... Is she also stubborn?

The short-haired female kidnapper disguised among the passengers didn't know that she had been targeted by the brave man and was still chewing bubble gum.

"Very good, that's right. Now, those of you who have mobile phones, hand them over automatically. It's best not to cheat. If anyone dares to cheat, he will never be able to make phone calls again in his life."

Yun Xianhe's fingertips moved slightly, and the wallet, mobile phone and other things in his pocket all entered the system space.

If I suffer a loss here, I won't get any compensation, right?

The car stopped at the traffic light intersection.

The driver contacted the command post as instructed by the kidnappers.

"We have now hijacked your company's bus. We have only one request, which is to immediately release Kunio Yajima who is currently in prison. If you don't comply, we will shoot one passenger every hour."

Yun Xianhe, who was sitting at the end of the car, counted the people on the bus.

Including him, even if we kill the entire car, we won’t survive the day.

Shoot your own people then?

Conan, who was standing by, saw Yun Xianhe suddenly smile and then return to his expressionless look.

The pair of heterochromatic eyes that always had a hint of gentleness in the past showed no emotion today.

Coupled with the other party's calm expression, he inexplicably thought of those legendary gods.

...So what happened? Why is Brother Xianhe in such a bad mood today?

"I'll contact you in 20 minutes, you'd better be ready before then."

The red light ended and the kidnappers hung up the communicator.

The threatened driver had no choice but to continue driving according to the other party's instructions.

The kidnapper who answered the phone came over and Yun Xianhe handed him a model of a mobile phone.

The kidnapper, who didn't notice anything wrong, glanced at him, then turned to look at the old man next to him:

"Old man, what's that on your ear?"

"This is a hearing aid. My hearing wasn't very good when I was young, so..."

The woman was still chewing bubble gum and seemed to care little about the kidnapper in front of her.

"Hey! Woman, you're making so much noise!"

"Need I say more? That's what chewing gum is like. I advise you to stop it quickly, or you'll be caught in the end. It's better to stop and hide somewhere."

boom!

In response to the other party's chattering, the kidnapper fired a shot.

The sudden sound of gunfire startled everyone.

Conan stared at the kidnapper with wide eyes and horror.

The latter looked at the woman with a grim smile and turned the muzzle of the gun in his hand towards her heart.

The frightened woman turned pale and replied in a low and slightly obedient voice:

"I understand... I'll just listen to you..."

Yun Xianhe tilted his head and looked over.

He didn't seem frightened at all, but instead was puzzled by the kidnappers' waste of bullets.

It’s no big deal to be beaten to death, right?

You're destined to be on the run anyway, aren't you?

The brave man realized that he was thinking about the problem with the thinking of his own world and paused for a moment, and began to recall the order settings of the current world that he had seen in the past two days.

It seems to be more troublesome.

And...there are children watching.

Feeling the stubborn child beside him ready to make a move, Yun Xianhe pressed him back with one hand and said softly:

"Be good."

Conan always felt that Yun Xianhe's words sounded chilly.

After a quick scan, I confirmed that there were only these three suspicious people in the car.

Yun Xianhe rubbed his fingertips on the special paste he opened in his pocket, and then took out a special anesthetic droplet the size of a millet grain from the system space and pinched it on his fingertips.

While stretching, he flicked it directly towards the woman who was eating bubble gum.

The specially made anesthetic beads quickly decompose and evaporate upon contact with the target.

The woman who was helping the kidnappers monitor the passengers felt as if a drop of water had fallen on her cheek, and she raised her hand and wiped it casually.

"what?"

Before she could see clearly, everything in front of her went dark.

boom

The sound of the 'corpse' falling to the ground was a bit loud.

The thin kidnapper was stunned as he watched the woman slide off the chair.

He looked at the person who seemed to be silent, quickly came to his senses, frowned and walked over quickly:

"Hey, hey! What are you doing again, woman?!"

Do you know how dangerous the things on your body are?

The old man sitting next to the woman reacted very strongly and almost jumped up into Yun Xianhe's arms.

Yun Xianhe seemed to be frightened as well, and moved towards Conan to avoid the old man's "throwing himself into his arms".

The kidnapper approached and grabbed the woman's arm with his free hand.

I breathed a sigh of relief only after I confirmed that the numbers on the other person's watch had not changed.

Looking at the person putting the watch into his pocket, Yun Xianhe moved forward a little, and with a slight movement of his fingertips, the watch appeared in his system space.

The kidnapper, who had no idea that his belongings were missing, was still pulling at the woman's collar, trying to shake her awake:

"Hey! Get up! There's no point pretending to be unconscious!"

The fat kidnapper who was threatening the driver heard the noise and looked back.

Seeing their accomplice fall, he frowned and asked:

"what happened?"

"I don't know, this guy suddenly fainted."

The thin kidnapper looked at the woman who showed no reaction at all.

After making sure that the other person had just fainted and was not dead, he raised his gun and looked at all the passengers around this seat.

"Who did it? Stand up!"
