Detective Conan: The System Takes Me to Zero's World

Kudo Yuki placed Conan steadily on the ground. As soon as the brother and sister appeared, Hakuba Tan's words came clearly into their ears.

Hakuba seemed to sense something, and slowly turned his head, his eyes locked on the siblings walking towards him. His eyes were fixed on Conan, a smile appeared on his face, and he asked softly, "Am I right, Conan?"

Conan was stunned for a moment, his heart beating wildly as if it was about to burst through his chest. Alarm bells were ringing in his mind, and his thoughts were in a mess: "How did this guy find out? How did my whereabouts get exposed? This shouldn't be possible!"

In the blink of an eye, Suzuki Jirokichi and Officer Nakamori hurriedly opened the door curtain and rushed out. Their steps were interrupted by a sneeze and they looked a little embarrassed. They asked anxiously as soon as they came out.

"what is going on?"

"Explain it quickly."

Bai Ma raised his hand to cover his lips, cleared his throat, and spoke clearly: "As I just deduced, when Kidd entered the exhibition hall, the body was already sitting on the throne. But the card did not mention the body at all.

To be precise, Kidd had no time to write.

Conan then entered the exhibition hall. I'm afraid Kid asked Conan to smell his cuffs to prove that he didn't shoot. He also said something like, "If this continues, I will be considered a murderer, but the murderer is someone else. Is it really okay if this mystery is not solved?"

When Conan heard this, his heart rose to his throat and he was extremely nervous.

Hakuba paused for a moment, then continued: "So Conan made up his mind to call Kudo Shinichi, hoping that he could solve the truth of this murder case, right?"

Conan was completely stunned. He never thought that Hakuba would come to such a conclusion. He hesitated for a moment, weighing the pros and cons in his mind, and finally nodded and replied: "Ah? Yes, that's right."

The Hakuba detective seemed to be greatly encouraged, his eyes gleaming brighter, and he continued to speculate: "Perhaps you used the bowtie voice changer to repeat Kudo's reasoning on the phone word for word into Kid's earphones who was pretending to be Kudo."

Mao Lilan pretended to have just learned about this, her cheeks slightly flushed, she was really shy. She asked softly: "So what is that sentence..."

"Kudo got Kid to say it through Conan, but Conan was too involved and it showed on his face before Kid did."

"But I was really shocked... Shinichi, you actually helped that thief."

"You don't really understand detectives. As long as there's a mystery, it must be solved. In the words of Ms. Kudo, the goal of a high school detective is to enjoy the fun of finding the truth. In other words, a detective is good for nothing but solving puzzles."

Conan secretly breathed a sigh of relief and muttered to himself: [That was a close call. I thought I was going to be exposed.]

Kudo Yuki couldn't help laughing when she saw her brother's surviving look. She walked up to him and gently touched his head: "Don't worry, little detective, it's all over now."

The noise about the case gradually died down, and Officer Nakamori and Detective Hakuba left one after another.

Suzuki Jirokichi turned his gaze to Kudo Yuki and Conan who were talking, thought for a moment, and then walked towards the Kudo siblings.

"Ms. Kudo, can I have a moment with you?"

Kudo Yuki looked down at Conan, her eyes full of concern and admonition: "Conan, go find Xiaolan first, I'll be back soon."

Conan nodded sensibly and ran towards the direction of Mao Lilan.

Not far away, a seemingly ordinary passerby, after witnessing the process of solving the case, followed Kudo Yuki stealthily with flickering eyes.

This person was the spy sent by the head of the Ooka family, who was ordered to find out all the news about Edogawa Conan. He walked very lightly, fearing that he would be exposed by making a sound.

Suzuki Jirokichi and Kudo Yuki walked to a quiet corner.

Suzuki Jirokichi sighed softly and broke the silence: "Ms. Kudo, I still have some things to say about what happened before."

Kudo Yuki tilted her head slightly, showing a listening expression, and signaled with her eyes for him to continue.

Suzuki Jirokichi put his hands behind his back and spoke calmly, as if he was telling a common story: "As you know, I am keen on holding various jewelry exhibitions and often issue challenge letters to Kaito Kidd.

I heard that Conan is always around Maori Kogoro and is often involved in various emergencies, and that the kid is obsessed with detective puzzle games. I thought that maybe he could play an unexpected role in dealing with Kaito Kid. So, I invited him to help. "

Suzuki Jirokichi used a chatty tone to explain in detail the reason for inviting Conan. He did not mention the head of the Ooka family at all. His eyes were calm and he did not intend to evade.

Kudo Yuki frowned slightly, a thoughtful look emerged on her delicate face: "Mr. Suzuki, did you invite Conan just because he has been involved in many cases with Detective Mori and likes puzzle games? You are promoting the fact that Conan is Kidd's nemesis. Is there really no other reason?"

Suzuki Jirokichi was slightly stunned, and then a frank smile appeared on his face: "Ms. Kudo, I understand your doubts. But to be honest, at first I was really attracted by Conan's intelligence and keen intuition about the case.

After many battles with Kaito Kidd, conventional defense methods have had little effect, so I want to try a new idea. As for the hype, it may be a bit excessive. I just want Conan to cause some trouble for Kidd to make this battle more interesting. "

In her heart, Kudo Yuki believed what Suzuki Jirokichi said, but out of her instinct to protect Conan, she remained vigilant, yet polite: "I understand your thoughts, Mr. Suzuki. It's just that Conan is still a child after all. I'm worried that getting too involved in these incidents will bring him unnecessary danger."

Suzuki Jirokichi waved his hands quickly, an apologetic look on his face: "Ms. Kudo, I was inconsiderate. I will pay extra attention to Conan's safety in the future and never let him fall into danger. I promise that all future actions will be based on ensuring his safety as the primary premise."

Their conversation was heard word for word by the Ooka family's spy not far away.

The spy silently recorded the information in his mind, preparing to report it to the head of the Ooka family. His fingers unconsciously rubbed in his pockets, as if he was confirming something important.

After listening to the conversation between the two, the spy felt that he had obtained enough information, so he quietly left and went to the place agreed with the head of the Ooka family to report the situation.

His figure quickly disappeared at the end of the dim street, like a night cat hiding in the darkness, leaving no trace.

At this time, Suzuki Jirokichi seemed to think of something and said the secret in his heart: "In fact, the conflict between me and the head of the Ooka family was not simply caused by social resources. In the early years, we competed fiercely in a large commercial project bidding, and I finally won the project.

Since then, our relationship has been a little subtle. This time, I promoted Conan vigorously, and I also wanted to use this opportunity to show my strength in front of him, but I never thought that it would cause trouble for Conan. "

Kudo Yuki nodded slightly, "In that case, I hope that the future matters can be properly handled, and Conan will not be involved in disputes between adults for no reason."

At the same time, in front of the Metropolitan Police Department, Kuroda Heibei had just finished discussing with the head of the Ooka family. With a stern face, he reached out from his pocket and took out his cell phone and sent a text message to Amuro Toru:

Go to Lingshu Tower quickly and investigate the situation secretly.

Toru Amuro was busy in the Polo Café, with an apron tied around his waist and wiping a coffee cup in his hands.

The phone screen suddenly lit up, he looked down at the text message, his originally gentle eyes suddenly became sharp, and his aura changed instantly.

He untied his apron and gently put it aside. He gave a few brief instructions to Enomoto Azusa and hurriedly left the cafe.

When Toru Amuro arrived near Lingshu Tower, he saw a figure sneaking towards a hidden corner.

With years of experience, he immediately realized that this person was unusual. He observed him carefully and found that the man walked with a low profile and his eyes kept looking around with vigilance.

Toru Amuro followed quietly without making any sound.

After getting closer, Toru Amuro discovered that this figure was the spy sent by the head of the Ooka family.

The man was lowering his voice and reporting to the head of the Ooka family on the other end of the phone: "Head, I just overheard the conversation between Suzuki Jirokichi and Miss Kudo.

He invited Conan only because Conan is smart and keen on the case, and he wanted him to cause trouble for Kaito Kidd, and he had no other intention against you. He also promised that he would pay attention to Conan's safety in the future and would not let Conan get involved in the conflict between him and you again. "

After hearing this, the head of the Ooka family thought for a while and said, "Okay, it seems that this kid has no deeper plans with Suzuki Jirokichi. Then you can withdraw first and don't have to keep an eye on Edogawa Conan anymore."

After hanging up the phone, the head of the Ooka family still had doubts in his heart. After all, years of business competition made him not let down his guard easily. He decided to wait for the results of Amuro Toru's investigation to see if there were any other hidden secrets, and his eyes revealed a shrewd and calculating look.

The spy hung up the phone and was about to leave.

Toru Amuro hid in the dark and saw all of this. He took it to heart and pretended to be lost, walking towards the spy with just the right amount of confusion on his face, like a lost traveler.

"Excuse me, could you tell me how to get to Chiyo Street nearby? I'm new here and I have no idea where to go."

The spy looked Amuro Toru up and down, thinking about returning to report immediately, and said impatiently: "Go straight along this road and turn left at the second intersection."

"Ah, thank you so much! You look like a local and you know this place very well. To show my gratitude, I'll treat you to a meal. There's a restaurant nearby that I heard is very good."

Toru Amuro extended the invitation enthusiastically, with a sincere smile on his face that was hard to refuse.

The spy wanted to refuse outright, but his stomach seemed to be deliberately against him and kept growling loudly.

As he had been on the lookout all day, he was too busy to have time to eat, and he was so hungry that his stomach was sticking to his back. After weighing the pros and cons, he felt that having a meal would not take too long, so he accepted the invitation.

The two came to the restaurant and ordered some food and drinks.

After a few drinks, the spy started talking more and more, his face turned red, and he began to speak with a lisp.

Amuro Toru saw the right moment and asked casually, "There should be a lot of fun things to do around here, right?"

The spy was a little drunk and patted his chest and boasted: "Of course, there is nothing in this area that I don't know."

"I heard that there have been a lot of big things happening in this area recently, like the appearance of Kaito Kidd and things happening between families. Have you heard about it?"

Toru Amuro seemed to ask the question casually, but his eyes were secretly observing the other party's reaction.

The spy became alert when he heard this, "Why are you asking these questions?"

Amuro Toru quickly explained: "I am a person who likes to listen to gossip. You see, I finally came here, so I want to know more interesting things to brag to my friends when I go back. Don't worry, I will never tell others that you told me."

The spy hesitated for a moment, took another sip of wine, and felt that the man in front of him did not have bad intentions, so he said, "The matter of Kaito Kid has been widely circulated recently, and you must have heard about it. As for the matters between the families, I only know a rough idea. For example, the head of the Ooka family has been paying attention to a child named Edogawa Conan recently."

"Edogawa Conan? This name sounds quite ordinary. Why does the head of the Ooka family pay attention to him?"

"It's all because of that old man Suzuki Jiroji. He promoted that Conan was Kidd's nemesis, and the head of the Ooka family suspected that he was targeting him on purpose, so he sent people to investigate Conan's background. However, based on what I just reported, the head of the Ooka family probably doesn't plan to investigate further."

As the spy spoke, he picked up the wine glass and took a big sip, with the wine flowing down the corners of his mouth.

"Oh? Then you have successfully completed your mission. By the way, is Master Ooka usually very cautious?"

"That's not the case. We have to make everything clear and not let go of any disturbance. For example, this time, if we are not sure that Conan and Suzuki Jirokichi don't have any deeper conspiracy, we will definitely not give up easily."

The spy was completely immersed in his own story and was still talking nonstop, unaware of Amuro Toru's true purpose.

Amuro Toru smiled and agreed with the spy, but he was thinking quickly in his mind: "Although the head of the Ooka family has temporarily withdrawn his spy, given his personality, he may investigate in other areas. We must find a way as soon as possible to completely eliminate the head of the Ooka family's doubts about Conan to avoid any further trouble. 】

After eating and drinking, Toru Amuro helped the drunk spy out of the restaurant and put him in a taxi.

Watching the taxi go away, he took out his cell phone and prepared to report the intelligence he had collected tonight to Kuroda Bei, while also thinking about his next plan.

At the same time, Kudo Yuki was driving Conan and Maori Ran on the way back to the Maori Detective Agency.

Conan sat in the back seat, and suddenly the text message that Kudo Yuki sent to Kaito Kidd popped up in his mind. He became curious and asked, "Sister, how did you know?"

Kudo Yuki tilted her head slightly, looked through the rearview mirror at Conan, and smiled: "Then you have to ask your father. My mother and I also heard it from him."

Conan frowned and muttered, "Dad is being mysterious again. When I get back, I must ask him about it."

Mao Lilan sat aside, watching the siblings bickering, and couldn't help laughing: "Every time I hear you talk about these topics, it's so interesting."

Kudo Yuki chuckled: "Xiaolan, there is actually an interesting family anecdote hidden behind this. When there is a chance, let Shinichi tell you in detail."

Mao Lilan's cheeks blushed, shy and touching: "Okay, I'm quite curious."

The car sped through the night and soon arrived at the Maori Detective Agency.

Kudo Yuki only left after seeing Conan and Mao Li Ran return to the house safely. She kept her eyes on the backs of the two until they disappeared behind the door.
