Out-of-control players in the world of Detective Conan

Qi Ming considered his words for a moment and then said:

"Ai, actually I've always loved music (games) since I was little."

As Qi Ming began to recount the past, Ai Haibara listened quietly, her small hand, which Qi Ming was holding, not trying to break free.

However, after listening to Qi Ming's words, Ai Haibara had some thoughts.

It's often said that musicians are either poor or rich.

Why would a rich person be desperate about life?

Therefore, Qi Ming is using music to metaphorically describe his poor family background.

“I used to stay at home alone (in a rented apartment) to create (play games) until I got bored (Electronic Yang Wei).

One person = no family.

During this period, something must have happened in Qi Ming's family, and "boredom" definitely refers to losing interest in life.

"Then a headhunter (system) contacted me and asked if I wanted to be a singer on the big stage (fighting) or a music worker behind the scenes (deciphering)."

"I didn't want to work behind the scenes; I wanted to be on the big stage, so I joined an entertainment company (organization), constantly taking on gigs (tasks), and became the company's top artist (met the boss)."

Qi Ming breathed a sigh of relief and patted Ai Haibara's hair.

The story was so well-crafted that he almost believed the organization he had joined was actually an entertainment company.

And Ai Haibara did indeed believe it.

She believed that she had vaguely gleaned some clues about Qi Ming's past from his words.

As expected, it was Gin who approached Qi Ming when he was vulnerable and led him astray!

"Ai, how could I..."

Qi Ming was about to bask in Ai Haibara's envy when he saw her increasingly gentle gaze, and swallowed back the words he wanted to say.

I don't understand, I really don't understand.

After spending time with the little guy yesterday, Qi Ming could tell that he wasn't mentally ill.

It might just be a simple case of mental illness! In a medical sense.

Otherwise, it would be impossible to explain how a mentally ill person could have an intelligence score as high as 9.

Qi Ming remembers watching a really amazing web series.

A little girl in a white coat performs surgery on a gang leader.

The boss's dozen or so subordinates stared intently at the girl, who calmly and steadily performed the surgery without batting an eye. She claimed that even the world's top doctors couldn't do the operation, but the little girl finished it in ten minutes.

Considering Ai Haibara's white coat and numerous skills, her backstory might not be so simple.

Dog system, where did you copy this web series from?

But regardless of the circumstances, it is a fact that the girl escaped from somewhere.

Qi Ming wasn't so naive as to bring up something he shouldn't have, so he asked instead.

"By the way, Ai, do you want to go to school? Your brother might not be home often because of work."

A little while later, Qi Ming asked Ai Haibara.

"um, I……"

"Okay, then we won't go. At worst, I'll quit my job. Anyway, we're rich and have nothing to worry about."

Qi Ming, displaying his fine traditional skill, skipped the dialogue and gave his answer before Ai Haibara could finish speaking.

What a joke! He hasn't even had enough of his own sister yet, how could he bear to send her to school so soon?

"..."

Ai Haibara squinted her eyes.

I haven't said anything yet.

However, the way Qi Ming cared for her warmed Ai Haibara's heart.

"Brother, I really want to go to school, and I feel that I need to make a change now."

Ai Haibara spoke calmly, but seeing Qi Ming's slightly drooping lips, she smiled again.

"But I want to stay with my brother a little longer before I go."

Qi Ming's smile returned.

Ai Haibara's desire to go to school was, of course, a lie.

She worried that if Qi Ming didn't take on any missions and always stayed with her, the organization would probably become suspicious of him.

After all, he had just met with the organization's boss last night.

Besides, Ai Haibara also has some ulterior motives.

Isn't there a famous detective who shrunk after taking the same drug as her?

It would be ideal to give him a sleeping pill and draw some blood for an experiment when he's alone.

Although she should be quite safe now, she didn't want to still be using this small body after she and Qi Ming revealed their identities.

We must start researching the drug.

However, the research data in the base was probably wiped out after I escaped, so I'll have to start the research all over again.

I don't know where else I can find relevant information...

Ok?

Ai Haibara suddenly realized something was wrong and stared blankly at Qi Ming.

I remember the last time I left the A drug prototype on the table at the base, it went missing. Later, Qi Ming explained that he thought it was junk and threw it away…

But if that's the case, what medicine did Qi Ming give to Shinichi Kudo?

Liar! Thief!

Looks like I need to find a reason to try and trick him into giving me a pill.

Oh, and I also need to think of excuses for doing the experiments in advance...

Haibara sighed, wondering when these days would end.

Seeing that Qi Ming wasn't paying attention to her, Ai Haibara took out her phone and typed her next goal into the notes app.

[1: Change Qi Ming's perception and let him know that this world is not a game!]

2: Develop a relationship with Qi Ming!

3: Find an antidote for APTX4869 as soon as possible!

Ai Haibara looked at the text on the screen and then slightly modified the second line.

[2: Cultivate Qi Ming's feelings for me]

……

An ordinary day passed by slowly, and soon night fell again.

After washing up, the two returned to their room and went to bed.

"By the way, brother, let me cook breakfast and lunch tomorrow. I really enjoy cooking."

Ai Haibara turned around and smiled at Qi Ming, but before Qi Ming could respond, she turned back around.

However, through his prosthetic eye, Qi Ming could see that the girl's ear tips were slightly red.

Qi Ming's expression was inscrutable, and then...

He slapped himself hard across the face.

Then, just a second before Ai Haibara turned around in confusion, he quickly activated time slow and turned his back.

I am Qi Ming of the evening, and I hereby declare that what Qi Ming said this morning was utter nonsense.

My little sister is still as cute as ever!

Qi Ming didn't know if it was because he had been in the organization for too long.

When Qi Ming first started playing this game, he felt the same excitement he had when he first encountered an action game.

But as his equipment level increased, he found these repetitive tasks somewhat boring.

However, even though there were no exciting activities today, simply spending time with Ai Haibara was surprisingly enjoyable.

Sure enough, the end of the game is playing for five minutes, then leaving the character idle and staring at the screen for half an hour without doing anything.

Qi Ming turned around and looked at the petite figure beside him, a peculiar thought suddenly forming in his mind...

Although it was only a possibility, Qi Ming wanted to give it another try.

"System, what happened last time when you warned me against 'breaking the fourth wall' in front of Ai Haibara? What would happen if I did?"

[Host, are you aware that buying and selling accounts is prohibited by the game company?]

Qi Ming curled his lip in disdain upon hearing the system's reply.

"I know, isn't that just a pure unfair contract? I'm just buying and selling, what can it do to me?"

【That's settled then, meow, do whatever you want, meow】

"...6."

Qi Ming gave the middle finger to the void with a grim expression.

"System, create a memo for me."

"..."

[Recorded, game objective]

1: Make Ai Haibara, the character you're raising, realize that this world is actually a game!

2: Find Shiho Miyano!

3: I must get up earlier than Ai Haibara tomorrow morning to show off my cooking skills!

After finishing the record, Qi Ming pressed his temples to clear his mind.

For some reason, Qi Ming would have a strange feeling every time he lived such a mundane life.

Oh no, I'm starting to lose track of reality...
