Transmigrated into Conan, his ability is Rhodes Island

Chapter 99 Miracle Bourbon, Touring Kyoto

It's raining.

A light drizzle began to fall from the sky, gently washing away the dust that had settled on the ancient streets of Kyoto. Amuro Tooru reached out and caught the raindrops falling from the sky. He gazed at the water droplets in his palm, the crystal-clear liquid reflecting the intertwined shadows of the inn's roof and the autumn leaves.

"Oh, young man, are you planning to enjoy Kyoto to the fullest today?" Just then, he heard the gentle greeting of the innkeeper's wife. She sat quietly behind the inn's front desk, a kind smile on her wrinkled face.

“Yes.” Amuro Tooru turned around and smiled. “Unfortunately, the weather isn’t cooperating; it’s started to rain.”

“No need to worry,” the shopkeeper’s wife said slowly, her tone full of laughter. “Kyoto often rains, but that’s part of its charm. If you don’t mind, I can recommend some nice places you might like to visit.”

"Thank you for your help." Amuro Tooru acted like a genuine tourist, listening attentively to the shopkeeper's wife's introduction.

The shopkeeper's wife slowly began to speak, introducing the temple from Kinkaku-ji in the northern ward all the way to Kiyomizu-dera in the Sakyo ward. Amuro Tooru nodded frequently during this time, and finally inadvertently showed interest in Kiyomizu-dera.

"Hmm, that's rare. I thought young people these days would prefer more lively places." The shopkeeper's wife looked Amuro Tooru over carefully again. "Of course, of course, Sakyo Ward is definitely worth a visit. You can take the subway."

Afterwards, the shopkeeper's wife first chatted casually about some interesting anecdotes about the construction of the Kyoto subway, and then gave detailed instructions to Amuro Tooru to take the Karasuma Line first, then transfer to the Tozai Line, then transfer to a tram at Higashiyama Station, and finally walk... and so on, and so forth, until she finally finished her story after nearly fifteen minutes.

Finally, she took out the rice balls she had just made and a large dark green umbrella, and stuffed them into the hands of Amuro Tooru, whose face was stiff with a smile.

"Go ahead and have fun." The shopkeeper's wife liked this polite young man more and more.

Amuro Tooru nodded his thanks and stepped into the rain, holding up his umbrella.

“Sakyo Ward, Sagano…” Amuro Tooru murmured the church address he had found in the information. He was not going to Kiyomizu-dera Temple for tourism, but to “visit” the place where Akihara Kazumitsu had lived since childhood.

Come on, let me see if you're truly the cuckoo who's taken over the magpie's nest, or if there's more to the story...

……

"Aysh~" Akihara Kazumitsu was woken up by the points notification and rubbed his sleepy eyes. "Which damn guy is sleeping in the middle of the day?!"

"Can you even speak human language?!" The system glanced at the sky outside. Although it was a cloudy day, it was still easy to see that the sunlight was shining through the clouds, indicating that it was close to noon.

Qiu Yuan half-closed his eyes, paused for a few seconds, and only continued to browse through the records after his brain had restarted.

"Let me see who this kind soul is—it's Shuichi Akai! Wow, quite a few points for that. Looks like the FBI is pretty quick; they got him out so fast."

Around Shuichi Akai's name, there were also some members of the branch, "Andre Carmel" and "James Black". The latter two were not necessarily less emotional than Shuichi Akai. However, some of them had less screen time in the original work, and some of them were not very important characters. Therefore, their emotional weighting was naturally lower than that of Shuichi Akai, a heavyweight character on the red side. It was about the same as when I first met Akemi Miyano.

Hmm, Amuro Tooru's points have also arrived. I wonder what he's doing; he seems to be eyeing me again.

"Hmph, no matter what, I deserve a share of the credit this time." The system straightened its back smugly.

"Oh?"

“I followed your instructions and put Su Dai’s name on the hacker’s computer. Now it seems that this Carmel is the hacker.”

"Not bad, not bad." Qiu Yuan nodded knowingly, feeling that sometimes it was necessary to use encouragement to educate children, so he casually asked, "How exactly was it hung up?"

The system, having received hard-won recognition, immediately became beaming with excitement, detailing how it selected the coolest announcement template from the database, how its super brain processed a matching, equally cool copy in 0.02 seconds, and how it added a dashing "Su Dai, reporting for duty," ensuring an unforgettable impression on the recipient, blah blah blah...

As Akihara listened, he fell into a long silence.

Okay, now he can imagine why the FBI agents had such intense emotional fluctuations.

Su Dai's image... has undergone some subtle changes...

Akihara Kazumitsu sighed inwardly, got up and boiled a kettle of water, then went into the bathroom to wash up.

As long as I don't feel embarrassed, it's everyone else who seems impressed but doesn't understand.

……

In a corner of the neighborhood, nestled among evergreen pines and cypresses, lies Amuro Tooru's destination—the Church of Divine Light.

Its exterior is unremarkable, blending seamlessly with the surrounding houses, lacking the ornate Gothic carvings or the stereotypical stained-glass windows found in churches. The exterior walls are a simple, unadorned gray brick structure, weathered by years of wind and rain, with moss growing between the bricks, revealing the marks of time.

The church has a simple, pointed bell tower, the cross atop which is damp and mottled from the rain. Just past the hour, Amuro Tooru heard the deep, resonant sound of the bells echoing far and wide as he walked along.

Although the main entrance to the church is not grand or imposing, it exudes a solemn and dignified air. The two wooden doors are simple and heavy, with a bronze plaque above them engraved with the church's name and the year it was built. Several evergreen shrubs are planted on either side of the entrance, adding a touch of natural greenery to this small church.

The church is surrounded by a stone-paved path, and just across the narrow path is the orphanage called "Angel Wings". Outside the orphanage's iron gate stands a small stone statue of an angel blowing a horn, with a peaceful face and outstretched wings. However, due to the passage of time, this angel is missing one wing.

"Big brother, are you here for Mass?"

Suddenly, the iron gate of the orphanage creaked open, and a furry head peeked out from inside.

Amuro Tooru paused for a moment, then quickly recovered and smiled at the little girl who had spoken. "Yes, you guessed right."

The little girl pushed the door open wider and squeezed through completely. She was wearing a choir robe that was large enough to cover her, with wide sleeves like the flowing sleeves of a theatrical performance in a neighboring country, and a wavy hem that dragged on the ground, making the already yellowish choir robe look even more shabby.

"Now it's my turn to guess, are you going to sing a hymn during Mass?"

"Wow, you guessed right!" the little girl exclaimed. "That's right, I've practiced 'Hymn of Light and Shadow' for a long time, and today is the first time I'm singing it."

“I’m really lucky then,” Amuro replied with a smile.
