Conan: I'm just an ordinary novelist

Chapter 8 Are you so stingy when paying salaries to those previous employees?

The sun was setting in the west. A young boy with a messy head of white hair climbed out of bed and looked around in confusion.

"hiss--"

The amount of information that rushed into his mind made Yun Xianhe close his eyes uncomfortably. He raised his hand to touch the glasses beside him and put them on, and then he felt better.

Yun Xianhe stroked the frame of his glasses twice with his fingertips and said with a wry smile:

"The rules of the detective world are imposed on my eyes... Fortunately, I have glasses, otherwise I would have a headache."

But after what happened just now, he is now completely sober.

"What are we having for dinner? I wonder how Conan is doing."

Slowly pulling out the system panel, the progress bar behind [Assist in solving the Moon Shadow Island case] showed 92%.

"Not bad, the movements are quite fast."

Someone nodded as if praising.

He had no idea how tired the short-legged little detective was from running that afternoon.

After touching his forehead, it seemed that it was not so hot anymore. Yun Xianhe decided to catch up with the ending and take a look at how Conan usually solves cases.

[Ding, mission accomplished. 】

"it's over?"

[The host's assistance in this mission is 20%, please keep up the good work. ]

[It was detected that due to the host's reminder, Ma Sheng was saved. 】

['Twist Fate Punishment' will start in one minute. (Tip: Pain immunity cannot be used for this punishment)]

"One minute?"

How did he remember it was five minutes before?

Yun Xianhe paused with his hand holding the coat and raised his eyebrows.

"Little Heavenly Dao?"

Xiao Tiandao, who was eating melon seeds and watching the show, felt his hand tremble. He first glanced at Conan and recorded the video, and quickly responded:

[I'm here, what's wrong with Mr. Yun? ]

"Why was the punishment brought forward?"

[Ah... before, it was specially lengthened to facilitate time travel, but now...]

I see. The trial membership that doesn't require you to watch ads has expired, right?

"I still want to go eat."

Ah this.

Xiao Tiandao didn't know what to do either, after all, once the program was started it couldn't be changed.

['Reversal of Fate Punishment' begins, remaining time 00:39:59]

"Ahem! Ahem!"

The pain in his chest was so intense that Yun Xianhe suddenly choked on a mouthful of blood. He fell onto the quilt and curled up to try to relieve the pain.

"Why is this one so long too? Is this Masamichi an important character? ! "

The voice coming out of his consciousness was a little shocked. Xiao Tiandao, who knew the original story, scratched his hands guiltily:

[He is the first person in the original work who chooses to end his life in front of Conan, and has a great influence on Conan's character afterwards.]

Xiao Tiandao glanced at Conan who was trying to persuade the other person to live, and then looked at Yun Xianhe who was lying on the tatami and convulsing in pain, and felt a little bit reluctant.

"Hahaha……"

Yun Xianhe smiled awkwardly, with an indescribable hoarseness in his voice.

The pair of heterochromatic eyes covered by mist looked unfocused at the bloodstains on the quilt, as if seeing some illusion from the past.

The blood-stained fingertips stretched out slightly and then curled up, as if trying to grab something.

"Seeking death because of someone else's fault... idiot..."

[Mr. Yun...]

"Cough, cough, cough!"

knock --

"Young man Yun, what happened? I heard a loud 'bang' downstairs."

"Nothing... I just fell down accidentally..."

The slightly suppressed voice made the innkeeper outside the door scratch his head suspiciously, feeling uneasy.

Yun Xianhe has been living with him for half a month. He often gets sick if he is not careful, and it is not easy for him to recover.

And sometimes, unless he finds out, the other person won’t even tell them that they are sick.

What a worrying child.

"Yun boy, please open the door."

Anyway, it is safer to take a look.

Yun Xianhe, who was almost losing consciousness from the pain in the room, didn't hear the other person's words at all. His bony fingers tightly grasped the quilt, trying to distract himself by chatting with Tiandao in his mind.

"Were you so stingy when you paid those people before? 20 points? No wonder they ran away."

[This, this is because we are poor at the beginning... We will become bigger and stronger in the future! Then I will definitely give you many rewards, Mr. Yun!]

Listening to Xiao Tiandao's big promises, Yun Xianhe sneered in his heart:

'You'd better, according to the previous market price, you already owe me 30 reward points.'

[So many?! But, but Mr. Yun, you didn’t help this time,]

'Um? '

[Well, what I mean is, I will record it in the account book and settle it with you after the task is completely completed.]

‘That’s pretty much it. ’

Little Tiandao, who was hiding in the clouds, rummaged through his little wallet.

Very good, the energy value just received seems not enough to compensate this time.

Woohoo╥﹏╥, it’s easy to invite a god but hard to send him away…

Next time he pulls a tasker, he must look carefully.

"Cough cough cough!!!"

A series of coughs interrupted Xiao Tiandao's sadness. Looking at the boy lying on the floor, coughing up blood, he suddenly felt that his money was not wasted...

Forget it, just consider it as mental compensation to the other party.

"Boy Yun? Boy Yun!"

The boss outside the door didn't receive a response. Hearing the other party's series of frightening coughs, his heart skipped a beat and he hurriedly opened the door with the master key.

"Yun boy? Ah! What happened to you?! Hey! Don't die! Hold on! I'll go get a doctor for you!"

['Reversal of Fate Punishment' remaining time 00:28:16]

“Cough cough cough! Xiao, Tiandao, you’ve really hurt me this time, cough cough cough!”

Listening to the footsteps receding, Yun Xianhe gritted his teeth and struggled to sit up from the ground.

First, he knocked over the cup of water on the small table closest to him, and then threw the pills that he had used to cover up the symptoms long ago from his system backpack into the system.

He reached out and touched his glasses. Although he knew they would not break, he still took them off carefully and placed them on a corner of the table.

After taking a look around the room which looked almost like a crime scene, Yun Xianhe took a breath and fell back to the ground.

'Call me five minutes before they arrive.'

Why?

"My system has been shut down for vacation. If 113 is here, do you think I would call you?"

"Cough, cough, cough!"

The person who was cursing in his heart turned sideways and hugged the quilt in his arms. He didn't care whether Xiao Tiandao agreed or not, and simply closed his eyes and disconnected half of his body.

Half of it is left to prevent unexpected people from breaking in. If they were mistaken for dead, it would be a big problem.

Looking at Yun Xianhe who sank into the sea of ​​consciousness and stopped talking, Xiao Tiandao, knowing that he was in the wrong, appointed himself as the 'new version of Tiandao system'.

On the other side, Conan, who had just solved the case, suddenly felt a palpitation.

The young detective looked around vigilantly but found nothing unusual.

"Is it an illusion..."

"Brother Maori, this time it's all thanks to you!"

"what……?"

Those who receive a lot of compliments when they just woke up and are still in a trance are a step behind.

Maori Kogoro looked at Inspector Megure in confusion, glanced at Conan on the side, and quickly continued:

"Hahahaha! No no, Officer Megure, you're too kind."

"But this time, it's all thanks to the clues provided by Yun Jun."

Xiaolan, who was standing by, looked at Ma Chengshi who was about to be taken away by the police, and said with emotion:

"Fortunately, Dr. Cheng Shi almost killed someone."

Conan was stunned for a second when he suddenly heard Xiaolan mention Yun Xianhe, and the palpitation that he had just suppressed instantly surged up again.

He recalled the young man swaying under the scorching sun that he had seen before.

The other person just has a simple cold,

Nothing should happen...

"Xiao Lan, who is the Yun Jun you are talking about?"

"Ah, it was a teenager we met here this morning. He was the one who provided the clue to my father."

"That's it."

Hearing these words, Inspector Megure raised his hand and touched his chin.

Maori Kogoro snorted when he heard this, and his tone seemed a little dissatisfied:

"Really? If that kid already has so many clues, why doesn't he just tell me?"

"Because Brother Xianhe is sick."

"Hey?"

Obviously, the people present did not expect this to be the reason, but after Conan said this, Maori remembered the other party's somewhat thin body.

"So that's how it is. I guess I can only try again next time."

"Doctor Cheng Shi! Doctor Cheng Shi!"

Inspector Megure's words were interrupted and everyone looked into the distance, only to see an old man running towards them desperately.

At that moment, Conan's anxiety doubled.

"Doctor Chengshi! Quick, quick... Yun boy! Doctor Chengshi, you..."

As Ma Cheng was about to get into the police car, he smiled slightly dejectedly:

"Feel sorry."

Seeing that the man was about to be taken away, and thinking that he was the only doctor on the island, the innkeeper became anxious:

"Officer! Can you take the doctor away later and let him save people first? Someone in my store is vomiting blood!"

"what?!"

Inspector Megure widened his eyes, looked at the gasping innkeeper in surprise and suspicion, and then looked at Maori.

Could it be that the Grim Reaper was dissatisfied because no one died in the case solved today and had to take someone away? !
