18-year-old Chuuya Nakahara unexpectedly gains a bullet comment system and learns that his world is actually an anime. He discovers that his beloved city will repeatedly face major crises in the fu...
Kyusaku's School Days 3 (a crossover of Detective Conan)
[Touka's got her eye on him, but even though Chuuya's a member of the mafia, he's genuinely trying to get Kyusaku into school this time.]
[Touko, are you referring to yourself as someone you know well in the Public Security Bureau?]
In the end, Chuuya used the same excuse he used to reject Ran Mouri to refuse Amuro Tooru's offer, and after finishing his meal, he left with Yumeno Kyusaku.
Chuuya had a strange feeling that something unlucky would happen if he were with them; he couldn't explain it, it was just an intuition.
After experiencing multiple murders in a single day, a large bombing incident, and repeatedly encountering the child at the scene, Chuuya realized that even though he was a member of the mafia, he had never seen anything like this before.
Seeing the barrage of comments mocking him, Chuuya finally made up his mind, walked towards the Detective Boys, and deliberately picked up Conan from the crowd.
"Are you a jinx? How come you get cases wherever you go? No wonder this city has the best crime rate when I check, and yet they always solve them on the spot. It would be strange if it weren't safe."
"Huh? How is that possible? Big brother, don't believe in metaphysics. This world is based on science! It's just a matter of probability."
Conan's eyes suddenly widened, and his speech quickened as he angrily refuted Chuuya's guess.
Having already gained a basic understanding of the place through the comments, Chuuya no longer believed this kid; in fact, he shouldn't be calling him Shinichi Kudo.
[Scientific, my foot! Have you heard of gravity?]
[While Conan's world is a world of Conan science fiction, the Phantom Thief Kid next door has already evolved into a magical world.]
I've found you a really safe place.
"Ha, it's all because of you."
There was no intention of continuing the argument with Conan; once Conan was put down, this place was definitely out of the question.
Conan, who was put back on the ground, twitched his lips. "Seriously? How can you blame yourself for this? Even though there are always cases happening around me when I encounter this... it's normal for a detective to be near a murder case."
Conan regained his confidence; he would never accept being cursed.
"Let's go. It's my fault. This place is absolutely not suitable; it's too dangerous."
Chuuya turned around and came to Kusaku's side, scratching his head, looking a bit of a headache.
"Chūya-nii, I really like it here! I'll stay here! Although a lot happened today, I didn't encounter a single person with special abilities. I'll study here! Please!"
Chuuya crouched down and glanced at Yumeno Kyusaku. His starry eyes were full of seriousness. Chuuya sighed. He was truly defeated by him.
Although it's somewhat dangerous here, it's still safe to stay with Conan.
"You troublesome brat, but if you insist, this place will do. Tch! Call me if you run into any problems you can't solve."
After Chuuya finished speaking, he stood up, turned around and left. Yumeno Kyusaku hugged his doll tightly and chased after him.
"So where do we go now?"
"Go and solve your schooling problem, and catch up."
Chuuya pushed open the door of the coffee shop from that morning again. It was almost closing time, and most of the customers had left, making it a good time to talk business.
"Ah! You're the customer from this morning."
Upon hearing the voice, Amuro Tooru looked up and saw Chuuya, who said with some surprise.
"Oh, it's me. Did what you said this morning work?"
Chuuya adjusted his top hat and looked at the undercover police officer.
When Chuuya encountered the second case, he finally realized the seriousness of the situation. He didn't miss a single comment and, based on the information he gleaned from the comments, he was truly amazed by the sheer variety of aliases people used here.
Since we've decided to stay here, we should make the most of the available resources.
"Of course, sir."
Amuro Tooru put down the mop and led the person to a seat on the side.
"Have you decided to leave this child here?"
"Well, this kid seems to like it here. We're not familiar with this area, so we'd appreciate it if you could give us a tour."
"Of course it's alright. How old is this child? Where did he go to school before?"
"Uncle, I'm 13 years old. I've never been to school before, so my brother came to take me to school."
Yumeno Kyusaku blinked his starry eyes and answered Amuro Tooru's question.
"Never before?"
Amuro Tooru's expression stiffened. He's this age and hasn't even been to school yet? From Conan's probing questions this morning, the other party denied being kidnapped.
"Well, if I had to say, I haven't been to school before because of health reasons. Do I have to start from scratch? I can accept that."
Chuuya, who was listening to the conversation between the two, nodded in agreement with Hisaku's statement.
"Then he also wants to buy a house nearby. I won't stay here for long; he'll be all alone."
[Then let's just buy a haunted house.]
[Only houses where someone has died are the safest here.]
[lol, otherwise the elementary school student who died will come to your house and film an episode.]
Chuuya frowned, deep in thought as he looked at the barrage of comments telling him to buy a haunted house. Was this place really that absurd? Did it mean that as long as no one had died there, it would be dangerous?
"How about Teitan Elementary School? It's the best elementary school around here."
He didn't say anything, but turned to look at Yumeno Kyusaku.
"I'll be fine! Brother, after all... being able to go to school is something I never even dared to dream of before."
Hisasaku blinked and gave a bright, happy smile.
"That's settled then, you little brat, you're so annoying!"
Chuuya's gaze recoiled as if burned, and he suddenly stood up abruptly, hurriedly leaving amidst the two men's puzzled looks, not forgetting to leave behind a parting remark.
"Wait here for me, I'll be right back."
"Your brother is busy with something?"
"No, right? My brother took a day off specifically to bring me to school."
Amuro Tooru observed Yumeno Kyusaku, who, despite still wearing the same smile as before, exuded an inexplicable sense of danger since Chuuya left. A slight smile appeared on Amuro Tooru's lips.
Brothers? Amuro Tooru is sure they are definitely not ordinary people. After all, no ordinary person would be so calm when they see a dead body. Their attitude as if dead bodies are commonplace to them, and their angle of analyzing the murderer, everything is so strange.
Most importantly, the photos I retrieved from the surveillance footage were handed over to the police, but they couldn't find anything wrong with them. The two people had clean backgrounds and there was nothing unusual about them.
After leaving the coffee shop, Nakaya used his phone's navigation to head straight for Teitan Elementary School.
[Is Xiao Zhong shy now?]
[That kind of gaze, as if looking at a deity, would make anyone pause in surprise, wouldn't it?]
[For Chuuya, it might have just been a spur-of-the-moment decision to help a kid, but for Yumeno, Chuuya was like a savior from a god?]
[Does Chuuya now need to do preliminary research before going to schools?]
Nakaya nodded in agreement when he saw the comments on the screen. The way they looked at him with the kind of gaze one would give a god was terrifying. He had only done what he could. As for checking out the school in advance, although that was one consideration, it wasn't his main purpose.
Dragging things out isn't his style. Since he's made up his mind, he'll just go for it. The comments followed Chuuya all the way to the principal's office at Teitan Middle School and asked him directly.
How much does it cost to send a child to your school?
Chuuya leaned against the principal's desk, staring at the middle-aged man with a receding hairline in front of him.
"Sir, the enrollment period has already passed, which does not meet the requirements..."
"I have money, just name your price."
Zhong also impatiently interrupted the principal before he finished speaking. If it violated the rules, why would he be looking for him?
The principal wiped the cold sweat from his brow. This seemingly young man possessed an unusually imposing aura that made it difficult to breathe. Pulling a document from his desk, the principal wore a fawning smile.
"But then again, as a principal, I can't bear to see a child miss out on school because they missed the registration deadline, so..."
As he spoke, he pushed the document in his hand toward Chuuya. Chuuya took it and saw that it was a contract for voluntary donation of school teaching resources. Chuuya chuckled, casually wrote his name on it, and took out his card to swipe on the POS machine that the principal had prepared.
"The money has been transferred. I'll bring the person over tomorrow."
After saying that, he turned and left, and the live chat exploded.
Chuuya also unleashed his financial power.
[As expected of the Mafia, but I thought they would use even more violent methods.]
For Zhongye, it might just be the price of a few bottles of wine.
With the most troublesome enrollment issue resolved, the rest became much easier. Chuuya went directly to a real estate company to buy a house. With the help of the comments, he eliminated the area around that unlucky kid's house and finally chose a house near the Mouri Detective Agency that was cheaper because a murder had occurred there.
Chuuya certainly wasn't short of money, but the main issue was that a murder had already occurred there. If it were Chuuya himself, he would definitely scoff at these things. However, since this house was being bought for that brat to live in, Chuuya remembered the comment in the live chat and immediately decided to buy it when the real estate agent introduced it to him.
Of course, Chuuya had thought about it. There was a coffee shop right across the street, which would solve Kusaku's daily meal problem. Moreover, the employee was from the Public Security Bureau, so his safety was guaranteed. It was also close to the school. Chuuya turned the key with satisfaction and returned to the coffee shop.
The two were still sitting in their previous seats when they saw Chuuya return. Yumeno stood up in surprise, ran over and hugged Chuuya's waist, burying her face in Chuuya's hoodie, her voice muffled.
"Where did my brother go? Next time, take Kyusaku with you."
Zhong also lowered his head stiffly. Was it just his imagination? Was this kid becoming more and more clingy to him?
"You brothers have such a good relationship."
Amuro Tooru also came over and couldn't help but sigh as he watched the two embracing. Kusaku, seeing that Chuuya was about to explode, released his grip on Chuuya's body in advance.
"Of course, my brother is the god who rescued me from that boundless darkness and pain. Before, I thought there were no gods in the world, but someone told me that there are gods in the world, but the gods don't love me. But now, if I meet him again, I will tell him that there may be gods who love the world and bless me, but I have also met my own god."
