Conan: Life between Green Plum and Skyfall

Chapter 25 The Difference Between Spirit and Reality

[So, whether I show my face or not, you're always suspicious of me causing trouble!]

"Of course! Who told you not to be like the New Century system, without your own intelligence?"

[What the hell! I'm consciously eating your rice! This is discrimination, this is systemic discrimination!]

"I'm sorry, but discrimination is normal for a conscious system!"

[How can this be normal?! Besides, even if I don't have any so-called intelligence, you'd still suspect I have some conspiracy!]

"..."

[You're silent! I was right, wasn't I! You bastard!]

"no!"

[I'd be surprised if there wasn't one! Look at me, you bastard!]

"...Even if I wanted to look you in the face, I can't since you only have one faceplate."

[......]

Now, it was the system's turn to be silent.

"So, can you answer my question now?"

[Regarding the new skill, the explanation is very clear! Because in this case, you used language to guide Jusan Megure, who was originally unaware of the truth, to realize the truth of the case, so you acquired this skill.]

"Even so, what the hell is this? I'm not Yu Ji, nor am I a charlatan!"

[It's literally what it says. After leveling up, you can use your words to deceive others. If your level is high enough, you can even call a horse a zebra. For example, you can make people mistake the outside for a locker room.]

"...Where did you get this 18+ system? You can even come up with such a perverted operation? This is already at the level of hypnosis! What kind of good person would call hypnosis bewitching?"

[Dear, I'm very sorry, but the source of this information is basically you, the host! So, before blaming this system, I suggest you cleanse your brain~

Of course, since the host prefers the name "Hypnosis", the system will modify the skill name~]

After finishing speaking, a new prompt popped up:

[Detecting the host's needs, the name of the skill after the "Induction" upgrade is now changed. The new name is changed to: "Bewitching (Hypnosis)"]

"How did you change this?! Isn't it just adding a bracket? If you have the guts, delete the bracket! Also, what do you mean all the information comes from me?! I'm just an innocent child, don't impose your perverted thinking on me! By the way, whose system is so sloppy!"

[Ugh, shame on you! This system is willing to call you the strongest! Besides, haven't you seen a system as careless as mine?]

......

After a while, Conan realized that he couldn't argue with the system, his face darkened, he took a deep breath, and continued to ask:

"Forget it, say whatever you want! What about the experience? Why didn't I gain proficiency in my deduction skill? I've already figured out the whole case! And why is my proficiency in this induction skill so high?"

However, in response to Conan's question, the system panel seemed to have crashed and fell silent again, saying nothing.

"System? Mentally retarded? A master with a head full of crap?"

Seeing the system was silent again, Conan thought for a moment and tried a few different names. Sure enough, this method worked! Following Conan's call, the system popped up again:

[I am intelligent, not retarded! And my brain is not full of crap!]

"Okay, okay, you shameless system that freezes all the time, can you explain why?"

"Who's so shameless! You still want to improve your deduction skills? You must be joking! Have you deduced yet? Tell me, what did you deduce about this case?"

The truth is the answer you copied directly from memory; the hidden loophole was discovered by Megure Jusan and Maori Kogoro; and the clues found by the scouts finally revealed the loophole! Where did you use your brain?

"Even if I copied the answers, didn't I deduce the case? Since I deduced it, why can't I get the experience of deduction?"

[Again, this system is a proficiency system, not a case-solving system! Therefore, unless you can solve the case on your own without relying on your memory, you will not have any deduction experience!]

"Then, the origin of the ice cubes is something I've deduced on my own!"

[......]

Then, a new string of content appeared on the panel:

[Based on the system's intelligent detection, the host deduced the hidden facts behind the case, revealed part of the truth, and gained some experience in reasoning skills!

Thanks to the intelligence and the host for their suggestions on system functionality, we've added a patch to the experience gain function! As long as the host performs reasoning and successfully deduces the truth, they will gain reasoning experience!

[Okay, I've reissued the experience points to you! This was definitely a problem on my end. Sorry.]

However, Conan did not respond to the system's apology. He just stared at the experience points the system had reissued, stunned for a moment:

"So, why is my experience point for deduction so high? And the experience point for induction is even higher than what I could get from training in the spiritual space for a whole night!"

[This is very simple! Although training in the spiritual space is still training, it is only mental training after all. In other words, it is simulation training.

The host doesn't think that he can use these shooting and fighting skills in the real world just by playing VR shooting and fighting games a few times!

Although training in the mental space should be considered as training in virtual reality, it is still different from real training!

In other words, only after actual use in the real world can the experience points gained be considered complete experience!]

"I see, I think I understand! No wonder you said last time that the experience points gained from training in the spiritual space would be greatly reduced!"

Conan nodded in understanding. But even though he knew this, a mosquito, no matter how small, is still meat! And the experience points gained in the spiritual realm weren't so insignificant as to be worth a mosquito's leg!

Add to that the difference in the speed of time, and his almost omnipotent abilities in the spiritual realm. Experience packs like this are so useful that they should be used when necessary!

"Oh, system, you just said that I relied entirely on my own memory to solve the case, right? Doesn't that mean I just used my absolute memory ability? Where are the experience points for absolute memory? Replenish them quickly!"

[...Host, you are truly shameless!]

Seeing this, Conan's face turned slightly red, but, based on the attitude that getting something for free is the greatest pleasure in life, he still pretended to be calm and said:

"No way! So, where's the experience? Quick! Give it to me!"

[Sorry, I refuse! How could there be a host as shameless as you?]

"To borrow your words, you've seen it, haven't you? Give it to me quickly!"

[Impossible, absolutely impossible!]

......

Amidst the constant quarreling between one person and one system, Conan began his exercise tonight.
