Conan: I'm Really Not the Manipulator

Qing Liubin, relying on his delicate appearance at the moment, showed a look of fear and calmly withdrew his gaze.

...It seems to be the second case?

Realizing this, Aoyagi Akimitsu looked forward again.

Suddenly, another plan came into his mind.

Hojo Shinji in front continued to run forward and was about to run into a park where there were not many people at this time.

Aoyagi Binguang, who was following behind, searched the car, and after putting away weapons such as guns, knives, iron rods, and bombs, he took out a safe and harmless telescopic baton and stopped the car next to the park.

……

7:03pm.

Aoyagi Akimichi learned from the young snake that Koshiba Koji had sneaked into the campus again and went to the music classroom to plant a bomb.

He felt sorry for the piano for a few seconds, then returned to Koshiba Koji's house and took out another bomb from a small box in the living room.

After cleaning up all the traces, Aoyagi Akimichi drove the spare car, carrying the bomb and Hojo Shinji, who had been hit on the back of the head by him, to the Ark.

He locked Hojo Shinji up next to Kudo Shinichi. He did not break into the room where Kudo Shinichi was held by force, but instead carefully opened the lock with tools.

The boy, who was still full of energy when they parted, fell down in the middle of the room with his eyes closed. Aoyagi Binguang untied the rope for him and gently placed the mobile phone he took from the bushes on his chest.

After doing all this, he saw the poisonous snake crawling in.

This venomous snake is dark brown all over, with yellow-green horizontal stripes on its back. The special thing about it is its eyes, which are light brown like Aoyagi Binguang's.

It leaned docilely beside Qing Liubin's bare feet. Qing Liubin just looked at it and squatted down.

Snakes and wolves, these two dangerous animals, are his messengers. Aoyagi Binguang doesn't like them. He prefers dogs, which have been domesticated by humans for many years.

Are they really loyal?

Is it true that their fangs will not be pointed at him one day?

Qingliu Binguang looked at the snake and suddenly took out a knife from his pocket.

The venomous snake received his silent command and took the blade of the knife into its mouth.

The tip of the knife cut its tongue and mouth, and blood dripped down the tip of the knife. It had no intention of stopping and continued to let the knife cut down, even if it would cut itself in two.

"..."

Qing Liu Bingguang put away the knife and ordered calmly: "Stay here. If he goes in the wrong direction, guide him to the right place."

After doing all this, he checked the water leakage mechanism again, and then he returned to the ground.

A huge monster was lurking beside the Ark. When it noticed Qingliu Binguang coming out, it raised its head, and its pair of snake eyes were like two huge round street lamps, emitting a faint light.

Its sturdy body crawled slowly across the ground, leaving a mark as thick as one meter on the grass.

【Animal Messenger】

In addition to allowing players to transform animals, summon animals, and create entirely new hybrids, there is one last feature.

——As long as we get the relevant fossils or DNA, we can revive the long-extinct creatures on Earth.

It easily lifted stones that were impossible for human beings to lift. Aoyagi Binguang stretched out his gloved hand and tightly wrapped the iron chain on the winch around it.

【Let it go. 】

Following his command, the snake placed the stone at the position he had planned.

The two teenagers underground, who had been injected with anesthetics again by him, had no idea of ​​the huge commotion or the trap they would face the next day.

……

In the tower apartment, Aoyagi Binkou yawned while watching TV.

Suddenly, a whole day's worth of memories appeared in his mind, and the exhaustion of running back and forth was also added to his body... He was not tired at all. Organizational training and military training were much more tiring than this. It just made him a little lazy.

The rabbit was sitting next to him in human form, watching the news. The beautiful female anchor was reporting on a case that happened today at Minato Middle School.

She said it in a thrilling way, and the rabbit, who was watching from the sidelines, was also frightened: [Fortunately it ended safely. ]

"Yes."

Kudo Shinichi's character, whether the player brothers and sisters have a protective aura, and the friendship and tacit understanding between the undercover agent and his colleagues... He saw it all at once.

[You are going to the Metropolitan Police Department to take a statement tomorrow. Will you meet Hakubato Suzuki or Hojo Iris?] Rabbit suddenly said worriedly.

Qing Liu Bingguang did not answer directly, but looked at him and said: "If you are worried, you can stay in the car, or just stay in the tower."

[…I’d better go with you. There are some people in the Metropolitan Police Department that I want to recognize and confirm the plot. I will go with you in the form of a scorpion.]

[His ability is to read minds. As long as he doesn't think about messing around, there should be no problem... That's what the system says.]

Seeing what Rabbit said, Aoyagi Binguang stopped trying to persuade him.

The word count has exceeded the limit. There was originally a section about killing Xiao Chai, but it can only be put in the next chapter...

Chapter 58 News from the Metropolitan Police Department

the next day.

"Teacher Aoyagi!"

At the entrance of Beika Central Hospital, Kudo Shinichi saw Mazda from afar and knew that it was Aoyagi Akimitsu who came, so he waved his hand quickly.

Qing Liu Bingguang drove up to him and stopped, looking at his face: "How is your health now?"

Having experienced such a dangerous situation yesterday, Kudo Shinichi did not show any discomfort on his face now, as if what he had visited yesterday was not a sinking ark, but an ordinary amusement park.

"The doctor said it's fine. I just completed the discharge procedures." Kudo Shinichi said as he opened the passenger door and looked down at the seat: "Didn't you bring the rabbit this time?"

The rabbit, which had transformed into a scorpion, huddled under Aoyagi Binguang's collar. He heard his teammate reply, "If we take the rabbit to the police station, we will be surrounded by people."

After picking up the person, the Mazda set off quickly. When the two people and the Scorpion arrived at the Metropolitan Police Department, it was 11:40 in the morning.

Before leaving the hospital, Aoyagi Binkou called the police who had asked him to take a statement yesterday, so when they got there, they saw the other party already waiting at the door.

The policeman greeted his colleague who was on duty at the door, then looked at them: "Mr. Aoyagi, Mr. Kudo, please follow me."

……

This was the first time that Aoyagi Akimitsu entered the Metropolitan Police Department of Japan.

This is the largest police agency in Japan, more than ten times larger than an ordinary local police station. Because of his foreign appearance, many people on the road looked at Aoyagi Akimitsu with inquiring eyes, but when they saw someone leading the way, they did not say much or stop him.

The person responsible for taking the statement from Aoyagi Akimitsu was Sato Miwako.

The policewoman was very capable and Aoyagi Akimitsu also fully cooperated, and his statement taking was completed in less than half an hour.

"Thank you for your cooperation, Mr. Aoyagi."

The two shook hands, and after they let go, Sato Miwako said to him, "Kudo-kun is an eyewitness, and he is a minor, so he has to go through more steps. It may take about half an hour. Do you want to wait for him?"

Qing Liu Bingguang nodded: "I brought him here today, and I will also send him back later."

"Then you can go to the rest area and wait."

Sato Miwako's eyes fell on Aoyagi Akimitsu's exotic face, and she suggested helplessly: "Walking around here with your identity may cause unnecessary trouble."

This was a kind reminder, not a warning or threat, so Aoyagi Binguang naturally accepted it and followed her to the rest area.

It is lunch time now. Except for those who need to be on duty in case of emergencies, everyone else has finished lunch and started to rest. There are not many people in the rest area. Some people gather there to smoke, and some are chatting.

Seeing Sato Miwako coming over, several people took the initiative to say hello. After she left, they did not pay attention to Aoyagi Akimitsu who stayed behind, and continued to do what they were doing.

Aoyagi Binguang poured himself a glass of water and found a random position that was out of the surveillance camera's view. He felt his collar move, and a scorpion-shaped rabbit crawled onto his collar.

"..."

Qing Liu Bingguang was not used to having such a poison near his neck. He raised his hand to take it off and put it on the table in front of him.

----

Rabbit had seen the Metropolitan Police Department several times in comics. A criminal love story had been staged here, but this was his first time here.

He was very curious about this place, but he didn't dare ask Aoyagi Binkou to take him around - not only because of Sato Miwako's special reminder, but also because there might be two other players here.

Come to think of it, is it really okay for the two of them, the Black Team, to sit openly in one of the Red Team's bases?

Rabbit is not worried about himself, but more worried about Aoyagi Binkou.

Unlike his current identity which is a mystery, his teammates are real members of the organization. If other people in the organization see him entering the Metropolitan Police Department, will he be in danger?

He quietly looked at his teammate's expression and found that he looked normal. He even took out a mustard candy from his pocket, unwrapped it and threw it into his mouth.

Typing with pliers was not very convenient, so Rabbit typed out his question slowly. But just as he was about to send it out, he heard two policemen who were smoking next to him talking.

"Senior Baijiu is really amazing."

As soon as the name came out, the rabbit's pincers trembled violently, and it turned its head to look over there. Qing Liu Binguang did not react much, but just calmly put down the water cup.

The person who spoke was a young policeman, his face full of admiration: "It seems that no matter what kind of criminal is in front of him, he can't keep any secrets!"

Can't keep secrets...

Hearing this keyword, Rabbit realized the reason in an instant - Baijiu did not rely on his own strength, but on the passive skill that could randomly hear other people's thoughts.

The player's passive skills cannot be turned off and are always effective in daily life. Even teammates or allies are not immune.

For example, now, Rabbit suspected that the two policemen suddenly brought up the topic he wanted to know most because his passive skill, [Impermanence] that brought the protagonist's physique, was working - Conan often heard various important information unexpectedly...

The other person next to the young policeman curled his lips and pushed his glasses down: "That's just occasionally. He didn't succeed last time. It was thanks to Senior Megure that he was specially called over from Section 4."

"Are you still angry about being scratched by his pet cat last time?" the young policeman said helplessly.

"That's not a cat at all!" another retorted, his eyes widening behind his glasses, "That's definitely a lion! There's no way I could have mistaken it!!"

"You're the only one who thinks so, right?"

The young policeman had an attitude of "I'm too lazy to argue with you". He took out his cell phone, looked at something, and typed quickly on it.

The policeman with glasses seemed to still want to refute, but he finally held back. He looked at him and asked, "Are you messaging your girlfriend?"

"No, it's Hojo-sensei's fan chat room." The young policeman said, "She said something happened at home, and the book signing event this Saturday has to be cancelled again."

"Didn't we cancel it a few weeks ago? Because there was a sudden fall from the building across the street?"

"Yes, this is the second time. I hope Mr. Hojo will not be affected. I am looking forward to seeing the third and fourth Kyoko books published well..."
