Science solves cases? No, I am an immortal cultivator!

Didan High School.

Class B, year 2.

Seeing that Kudo Shinichi's seat was empty, Sonoko couldn't help but ask, "Ran, where's that Kudo guy?"

Xiaolan's face was full of worry. "I don't know. I called him but no one answered. There was no one at his house either."

Yuanzi clenched his fists and stood up for Xiaolan, saying, "That guy, if I see him again, I will definitely teach him a lesson. He actually disappeared!"

Xiaolan forced a smile.

By the way, because Conan had been staying by Xiaolan's side all the time, he forgot to reply to Xiaolan for a while. It was not until the end of the weekend when he asked for leave from school that he suddenly remembered.

Xiaolan felt her cell phone vibrate, took it out and saw that it was a text message from Kudo Shinichi. The general content of the text was that he had encountered a very difficult case and was unable to get away, and he was very sorry.

Seeing Xiaolan staring at her phone intently, Sonoko asked with concern, "Lan, is this a message from that guy?"

"Yeah." Xiaolan briefly explained the content of the message.

"That guy didn't even return my calls!"

……

Dr. A Li's house.

Conan took advantage of Kitagawa Taki's absence and quietly found Dr. Agasa.

"Doctor, that guy won't come back suddenly, right?"

Conan felt that Kitagawa Taki was a little strange and didn't want to meet him.

Dr. Agasa said: "No, Taki went to his office and said he wanted to talk to the landlord about renting the third floor as well."

Conan was a little surprised and asked, "He wants to expand the office?"

Dr. Agasa explained: "Taki cured the illness of the chairman of the Tozawa Group yesterday and received a large commission."

"Tozawa Group? How much?"

“It seems to be 1000 million.”

“1000 million?!!”

Conan jumped up from his chair in shock. Was this consortium chairman out of his mind? Trusting the exorcist was fine, but wasn't the reward too much?

Dr. Agasa rubbed his head and smiled, "I was also shocked when I first found out yesterday! President Tomizawa even bought a few talismans from Taki for 100 million yen each!"

Conan twitched the corners of his mouth, no longer able to complain.

Dr. Agasa suddenly thought of something and said seriously: "Shinichi, I know you only believe in science, but what I want to tell you is that Taki is a truly capable person."

Conan responded: "Yes, yes."

He didn't expect that Dr. Agasa, who had a doctorate in engineering, would also believe what Kitagawa Taki said. It could only be attributed to the fact that the two were relatives.

"By the way, I made something that's very useful for searching."

Dr. Agasa took out a red bow tie from the drawer of the desk.

"This is a bow tie voice changer. Just turn the dial inside and you can imitate any voice. You can imitate the voices of the elderly, children, men, women, anything!"

Conan carefully observed the structure of the voice changer, then tried it again and found that the effect was indeed very good.

"But, can it really be used in a detective agency like that?"

That night, when he was asked to help the chairman find his daughter, he had already witnessed Kogoro Mouri's reasoning skills.

"One more thing, Shinichi, you should go to school!" Dr. Agasa added.

"Go to school? I've become so small, how can I go to school?"

Dr. Agasa explained: "I'm not talking about high school, I'm talking about you going to elementary school as Conan."

"Think about it, you're already an elementary school student, but you're not going to elementary school. Isn't that weird? It might arouse suspicion and even reveal your identity!"

Conan thought about it and felt that what Dr. Agasa said made sense.

However, he felt a headache when he thought that he, a high school student, had to go back to elementary school and stay with a bunch of little kids all day.

"That's it! I'll go back and talk to Xiaolan. Oh, and there's also the child support that needs to be paid to Uncle Maori."

Conan clasped his hands together and wanted to ask Dr. Agasa for help.

"Doctor, can you advance the money for me first?"

"No way, how much do you want to pay?"

"About 100 million yen."

If there are too few, Conan is worried that he will be driven out by Kogoro Mouri.

……

School in the afternoon.

Sonoko and Xiaolan rode in the same car home. Sonoko was going to the Kitagawa Exorcism Office, so she was going the same way as Xiaolan.

"Lan, let me tell you, Taki and I went to exorcise the spirit yesterday..."

After getting in the car, Sonoko started talking incessantly about Kitagawa Taki's exorcism yesterday.

Xiaolan was stunned when she heard this. After all, she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, so she didn't have the same intuitive feeling as Yuanzi.

"Uncle Tomizawa gave me a thank you gift of 1000 million!"

No matter how much Yuanzi said before, none of them is as intuitive as this.

"1000 million?" Xiaolan opened her mouth slightly. Her firm hadn't earned that much in several years.

"Yeah! Taki is really amazing. He's handsome, well-educated, capable, and most importantly, very considerate."

As she was talking, Yuanzi became obsessed with flowers again.

"Lan, I think I really like him!"

Xiaolan looked at Yuanzi's infatuated look and nodded to show that she understood.

Sonoko often says that she likes this and that, and the only thing they have in common is that they are handsome.

"It's not that kind of love! At first it was definitely because of Taki's looks. Ever since that roller coaster day, I felt my heart flutter."

When Sonoko recalled the scene of that day, she was absolutely certain that her heartbeat quickened.

Finding that Yuanzi seemed serious, Xiaolan asked: "Then Yuanzi, are you going to confess to Beichuan?"

"That's right, I, Suzuki Sonoko, will definitely defeat Kitagawa Taki!" Sonoko looked determined to win.

In fact, she had no idea at all. She felt that she was not pretty enough, and she was not as good at studying and virtuous as Xiaolan. Her family just had a little money.

In fact, this is a typical psychological phenomenon of feeling inferior in front of the person you like.

The two chatted all the way to their destination.

After saying goodbye to Xiaolan, Sonoko went up the stairs to the second floor.

The door was open, but Yuanzi knocked anyway.

Beichuan Taki had already noticed Yuanzi and said, "Yuanzi, just come in, no need to be so polite!"

"Taki!"

"This is?"

Yuanzi asked curiously as she looked at the boxes piled in the corner.

Beichuan Taki explained: "I also rented the third floor and planned to use it as a place to live. These are the appliances I bought, such as the TV and washing machine."

He has never been stingy with his money. He just spends it and earns it again. Compared with the cost of cultivating immortality, these are nothing.

It’s a bit regrettable that there were no smartphones or computers yet, and today’s computers are too old-fashioned.

I don’t know when these things will appear given the chaotic timeline of Detective Conan.

"If you need any help, you can call me!"

Yuanzi was very happy. She could come here directly from now on, and it would be on the way with Xiaolan.

Beichuan Taki smiled and said, "Don't worry, I won't be polite."

"Uh-huh."

"By the way, Taki, can you let me see ghosts or something?" Sonoko said a little embarrassedly, "I'm a little curious."

After witnessing Kitagawa Taki's magical skills yesterday, Sonoko felt a little itchy.

"Are not you afraid?"

"Scared, but just very curious!"

Kitagawa Taki understood that Yuanzi was a naive but playful person. She was afraid of ghosts, but also wanted to see what ghosts looked like.

Actually, there’s nothing wrong with taking a look. Most spirits are not that scary.

"Not now, but it will be fine when I become stronger."

Beichuan Taki's current cultivation level is the second level of the Qi Refining Stage. His control over spiritual power is not enough to open the spiritual eyes of others.
