Chapter 18: Three Questions for Philosophy(1/2)

"Oh, I'm looking at the chandelier on the ceiling. This decoration style is uh...a bit like a case recorded by the senior sister." Shiraishi said nothing and fooled the topic.

Afterwards, he asked a series of questions to the Meguro Police Department about the case.

But after asking for a long time, he was dry and he couldn't successfully receive the task.

Shiraishi thought about it, then curbed her shame and said some middle-second lines such as "Leave this case to me."

Unfortunately, there is no effect - the taskbar is still empty.

...If you continue talking, even if you have a rough nerve like Meguro Police Department, you will definitely notice something is wrong.

Shiraishi could only let him go in disappointment, then tried to change the angle, thinking about how to take the task... Could it be that he really wanted to pick up the F key and bring it over.

However, when thinking of the keyboard, Shiraishi suddenly had an idea.

He held the camera he temporarily borrowed, walked to a place where there were few people, squatted down and pretended to take a picture, but actually turned on the light screen and looked at the initial interface.

Shiraishi remembers that there will be a stickman representing himself on the initial interface, and at the same time, it will also display a topographic map within a certain range around the character.

At this time, the modeling of Yoko Okino's house was spread out on the light screen.

Behind the stickman representing Shiraishi, there was a brown stickman sitting on a chair, with a bubble exclamation mark on its head.

There is a door!

Bai Shi's eyes lit up, and he raised his hand and poked the stickman secretly.

The brown stickman shook his head. After a moment, the bubbles on its head slowly expanded and stretched into a rectangular task box.

【Tonight, the famous Maori detective firm was lucky enough to receive a commission:

The popular idol Yoko Okino was very distressed. In the past month, she felt that someone was following her.

This is not an illusion - since two weeks ago, she has received many photos of her being taken secretly. There are often threatening letters stuffed into the cracks in the door of her house, and the unpleasant silent phone calls are always on time at 0:00 in the middle of the night...

A week ago, the situation became even worse. Yoko Okino found that the drawers at home were being tangled and the location of the furniture was moved subtly.

Only then did she realize that the invisible follower had unknowingly invaded her home. Perhaps it was hiding behind the curtains, in the closet, under the bedside... to admire her frightened appearance.

——The idol’s experience made her fan, Detective Maori, angry and took the commission with ease.

However, following Yoko Okino to her apartment. When he opened the door, he was greeted by his idol's pink and cute room.

It's a corpse of a strange man standing in the hall]

【Task Objective:】

The whole page ends here abruptly.

Shiraishi swept down and found that because of too many words, the dialog box had reached the bottom of the light screen, and the content behind it had turned the page.

"...It would be great to put the word 'mission goal' behind it. It's just hanging in the air, and it's so uncomfortable to look at it."

Shiraishi muttered and pressed to turn the page. While waiting for the page to refresh, he dug up information from his memories of elementary school, trying to guess who the prisoner was.

——First of all, Yoko Otsuno was ruled out. In the original work, this idol appeared many times later, so she definitely was not caught.

The rest are Yoko Okino's agent Eiichi Yamaki and Yuko Ikezawa who appears here for no reason.

When the police officer asked Yuko Ikezawa just now, Shiraishi also heard it from the side and learned that this person was an artist who debuted at the same time as Yoko Okino, and the two of them were very inconsistent on weekdays.

The earrings fell next to the corpse, ran away when they saw the police, kept silent about what they were doing, and other behaviors made Yuko Ikezawa so suspicious.

It's so suspicious, so it shouldn't be the murderer... Shiraishi crossed her out too.

The only thing left is the thin agent.

If you think about it carefully, if you want to successfully assassinate such a tall and strong man, even if you attack from behind, it will be difficult for a thin and thin female idol to succeed.

As a male agent, it’s different. Maybe under his thin body, there are eight abdominal muscles and a tendon flesh hidden...

After completing the initial guess, Shiraishi came to his senses and looked back at the taskbar.

Originally, he thought that the mission goal would be to "rescue innocent people who were wrongly accused of becoming the murderer" or "find out the real murderer."

As a result, when I looked closely, the words were:

【Liberate the wandering souls plagued by resentment】

"?" Shiraishi was stunned at the screen.

...The scientific reasoning world, you actually tell me that there are wandering souls now?!

Under his puzzled gaze, the words on the light screen quickly changed:

[In the eyes of the deceased Akiyoshi Fujie, he was "reborn" after committing suicide.

Please plan a life for him without much regret on the premise of preventing him from falling. After success, you will cheat #¥%*…get his soul crystal as reward]

【To be entering the virtual world planning station soon】

【Countdown: 5, 4, 3, 2, 1】

"..." What is the situation of the word "scam" that was silenced halfway through the speech? Let's leave before you can explain it clearly!

And... suicide? Did Fujie Akiyoshi commit suicide?

Without thinking more, Shiraishi suddenly felt that he had left his body.

This experience is wonderful, just like the legendary soul leaving his body. At the same time, the scene around him changes rapidly.

Not long after, Bai Shi's soul suddenly sank down. He opened his eyes and looked around and found himself standing in an illusory space.

This place is like a cinema without stools, with a screen floating in the air in front of it. Apart from the screen and where he is, there is a heart-pounding darkness.

——Real world——

After walking around for a few times, Conan had already discovered a lot of suspicious points.

——When I first entered the house, the air conditioner in the house was turned on very much, and the warm wind was whistling. Combined with the vague water stains around the deceased, Conan thought of ice.

In addition, both the agent and Yoko Okino said they did not know the deceased, but when they saw the deceased's appearance, their reaction was too great.

Yuko Ikezawa also has many problems. In addition to obvious doubts such as earrings, it can be seen from various details that she is very familiar with No Yoko's home. But she said this is her first time here.

The fragmented clues were spliced ​​one after another, which made Conan look a little surprised about peeping. But he still couldn't reason about who was the murderer.

In order to find more clues, Conan began patrolling the living room again.

When his eyes fell to the fixed line of human figure traces, Conan paused slightly and noticed the young man living downstairs of his house.

Just now, after eavesdropping on the conversation between Shiraishi and Meguro police department and learning that he was a student who came to collect materials and was not a suspect, Conan removed his attention from Shiraishi.

But now, Conan slowly remembered that Shiraishi had already squatted beside the corpse for a while with her camera in her arms.

...Is there any details on the floor there that he didn't notice?

Conan walked over curiously and asked in the long-lasting child voice: "What's wrong here?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Conan caught a small trace with sharp eyes.

——In front of the left side of Baishi, there is an inconspicuous dent in the human-shaped coil. The trace is vaguely oval, about two or three centimeters long, as if it was smashed out by something very heavy.

After staring at the trace for a few seconds, it was like finding the most critical puzzle. Countless clues began to piece together in Conan's mind and quickly put out half of the picture.

...He has completely figured out the way of death of the deceased!

The joy of conquering the truth made Conan very satisfied.

Not long after he became a child, he instantly forgot his identity and habitually slapped Shirashi on the shoulder: "Help a lot!"

As soon as he said that, Conan realized something was wrong when he heard his childish voice.

His heart skipped a beat and he laughed and wanted to fool him.

However, the people next to him did not look at him with surprise, nor did they ask him why he said that.

——Shirashi closed his eyes tightly, followed the force of being photographed, and fell straight to the side like a sack full of pork.

Conan was shocked and pulled him with a conditioned reflex, almost lying down by Shiraishi.

"...Hey, are you okay?" Conan thought Shiraishi was about to die suddenly on the spot at a young age. He quickly took a pulse, then opened Shiraishi's eyelids and looked at it, then reached out to try breathing... There was no problem with the examination.

In the end, he could only draw a conclusion with a little confusion: "Are you asleep?"

Are graduate students so stressed? Fortunately, he has no plans to study for graduate school for the time being.

No one else noticed such a big noise.

First, Conan seemed to have a passive skill of "no one can see me at the scene of the crime", and second, their attention was attracted by Kogoro Mouri.

——The middle-aged uncle twisted his beard and let out a string of low laughs, and then he said confidently:

"This time, my reasoning will not go wrong again."

Conan felt a twitch and his forehead jumped a few times.

On the day he became smaller, he and Dr. Agasa carefully analyzed and believed that only by making Kogoro Maori, a confused detective, become more famous, could he get more cases and find clues of the Black Organization.

Now, it is obvious that there is no time to hint at the truth about Kogoro Mouri, and his plan to increase his reputation has failed.

...But even if you can't increase your fame, you can't let Kogoro Mouri tell the wrong truth! His reputation is already poor enough!

what to do……
