Chapter 95 I have a nephew who is as strong as a mountain and as brave as the world?
While others were activating the African grassland experience card, Conan Edogawa was placed on the top of a building by a ghost. After calling the police to pick him up, he gave the same story to both the police and his parents, insisting that he was taken there by Kidd.
Edogawa Conan wondered if it would be a problem to casually tell others about magic, and the ghost had also mentioned that there was another set of rules governing her...
It’s better to have less trouble than more, so let’s just keep it a secret.
The police treated him as a real child and stopped questioning him when they learned that it was Kaito Kid who saved the child. However, his biological parents were not so easily fooled.
Kudo Yusaku raised the same question as the winery: How did the two helicopter pilots manage to fall from their helicopter into the bombed building, and how did they manage to turn the helicopter around and plunge it into the lake? And why did Kaito Kid then take Conan Edogawa and Hakuba away from the scene instead of leaving them to wait for police rescue? Why didn't anyone see Kaito Kid leave?
Don't blame Kudo Yusaku for asking too many questions. Last time, he didn't ask his son the real reason, but when he and his wife returned to China, they found that their son had been reborn as a five or six-year-old and almost died. And this time, everything was really strange.
Edogawa Conan was just thinking about how to respond when Ringuang suddenly remembered their conversation about Batman. Feeling apologetic towards this otherworldly detective he'd never met, he said, "Let me answer the first question first. It was Kaito Kidd who rushed into the helicopter cockpit with his grappling gun and threw those two men out. I think I saw him do something to the helicopter's control panel, and then he jumped back in and knocked out the two assassins with Hakuba-san."
Yukiko: "Hakuba-sensei? Ah, you mean that genius detective who's about your age and studied abroad in England and always likes to dress up as Sherlock Holmes? That kid doesn't look like he's particularly good at fighting."
"That's all performance, Mom. He's quite good at fighting. I was shocked when I saw it," Edogawa Conan said seriously. "After all, the detective he admires isn't just Sherlock Holmes, he also admires Batman. He not only imitates Holmes's outfit, but also Batman's fighting style. Isn't it normal for a detective to be able to do this? Haven't your son, with my current body, subdued enough criminals?"
Kudo Yusaku: "And those two were beaten into vegetative states?"
Conan Edogawa couldn't help but push the glass beads containing the two people's souls deeper into his pocket. "Then I don't know. Maybe they fell somewhere when they fell, or they took some poison from the organization, or they were attacked by the organization afterwards. It's not like they haven't done this kind of thing before."
That's true...
Seeing that this trick worked, Edogawa Conan continued to make up stories: "And your second and third questions, Dad... How would I know, Dad? I'm not Kaito Kid. I still want to ask him! Now I can only speculate that maybe he was worried about the possibility of changes at the scene, plus there was some optical camouflage on the equipment he wore that night."
Well, Kudo Yusaku felt that he could accept this statement for the time being, but there was one thing he really couldn't ignore:
"You're saying... after Kaito Kidd steals gems, dodges bullets, dashes into an attack helicopter, throws two assassins out, and then knocks them unconscious—all sorts of action sequences more thrilling and exciting than a Hollywood action movie—he then takes you and Hakuba Tan on a paragliding ride of at least 300 meters? If Hakuba Tan is that skilled in combat, then given his size, his muscle density must be quite high. He must be much heavier than he looks now. And given that, Kaito Kidd picks him up with one hand and glides him through the air?"
Kudo Yusaku: "...Are you sure you met Kaito Kidd, not Batman?"
What kind of folding hang glider can withstand such a load, and what kind of power can perform such an operation that is beyond the limit of human physical fitness.
...If I remember correctly, his nephew's surname is definitely not Wayne.
Conan Edogawa was full of confidence: "Maybe Kaito Kidd also likes Batman. They both fly in the sky, use hang gliders, and hide their true faces from others. Even Kaito Kidd uses a grappling gun!"
Anyway, he doesn't know the answer no matter what you ask him. If his father has the guts, he can just go ask Kaito Kid himself!
"...Okay, I get it." Kudo Yusaku gave up pursuing these issues. His next words made Edogawa Conan's heart stop, "Don't come here again recently. The Kudo house has been in turmoil recently. Several groups of killers have come here, targeting me and your mother."
Edogawa Conan suddenly became anxious and rushed to his parents to look at them carefully: "Mom and Dad, are you okay? Are you hurt?"
Yukiko: "It's okay, Subaru Okiya captured them quickly. But your dad told him that those people don't look like they are from the winery, but he can't get anything out of them."
Not like the winery guys.
Conan Edogawa suddenly thought of the Zoo Organization. They were supposed to hunt down Kaito Kid and Hakuba Tan, but recently the target of the assassination has been changed to the winery, which is completely the opposite of the situation in his own home.
Could it be that the two organizations have joined forces and exchanged their enemies?
Edogawa Conan couldn't help but ask: "Where are those people?"
Yukiko: "All three are locked up in the basement, and Mr. Okiya Subaru is guarding them. Mr. Okiya Subaru said that there are people watching around the house recently, so it's not convenient to ask other FBI members to transport them away."
I'm afraid of being silenced or escaping.
If the opponent was a winery, they would have experience in dealing with it, but now with this newly emerged organization... the three people on hand are the only clues.
We must not let them go until they reveal the information.
"...I understand." Edogawa Conan said, "Then mom and dad, please leave Neon as soon as possible. It's no longer safe here."
Kudo Yusaku: "This time they are different from the previous attempts. They really want to kill people. So it's useless for us to run to anywhere. Besides, this place is actually the safest. We have the technology that Dr. Agasa secretly brought here and the protection of the FBI."
Yukiko: "Okay Shinichi, you should go back now. You can't let them think you have anything to do with us now."
......
After leaving Kudo's house, Edogawa Conan did not return to the Mori Office, but sat alone on a swing in a nearby children's square for a long time.
He took out the thumb-sized crystal bead from his pocket and could vaguely see the face inside shouting something at him.
He quickly made up his mind and put the crystal bead back into his pocket.
Then she opened the photo album on her phone, found the personal account of [Umekawa Kuko] that Judy had uploaded before, and submitted a friend request.
The friend request was instantly accepted. Edogawa Conan walked to a dark and secluded corner of the small park and tentatively sent a message: [Ghost?]
The other side replied with a "1".
Edogawa Conan didn't know what this meant, but he still sent a message: [Can we talk? It's best to talk offline. I'm ready for you to take me away anytime now.]
He was worried that someone would hack the chat.
The other side replied with another "1".
......What does this “1” mean?
Before Edogawa Conan could substitute the code pattern in his mind into the code to start decrypting it, he felt a pull from the shadows behind him, and he was pulled into the bottomless darkness.
.....
Edogawa Conan felt himself falling, but not long after, he felt a familiar pulling sensation on his collar.
The ghost figure who had pulled him out by the back of his collar gently placed him on the ground: "What's wrong? Do you have to talk offline?"
"Because something very important happened here, I'm worried that the chat records will be hacked." Edogawa Conan answered while looking around.
This time, the place he stayed at was not as gloomy and dusty as the abandoned warehouse he had stayed in before. It looked like a path in a park or school. Next to him was a bench, warmed by the sun.
The ghost sat down on the bench with his legs crossed, leaned back and sighed contentedly: "Tell me, what's the matter?"
Conan Edogawa climbed onto the chair and sat down: "My parents might have been assassinated by killers sent by the zoo."
"Oh..." said the ghost, "My condolences."
"...That's not what I meant! They assassinated but failed." Edogawa Conan tried hard to save his place in Cheng Xiaoyu's heart. "The three killers are now locked up in my basement, but I can't get any useful information out of them. It's just my guess that they were killers from the zoo. That's why I wanted to come and talk to you, to see if you have any clues or suggestions to help me pry them open."
"I don't have any clues, but I can help with the latter." Cheng Xiaoyu slowly pulled a book from her bosom. "The author of this 'Comprehensive Guide to Universal Torture for Humans on Earth' was once the leader of a certain assassin organization. It contains over a thousand torture methods, twenty-three of which he claims can be easily performed by even a five or six-year-old human child without any special abilities, without the aid of any special equipment."
Conan Edogawa: "...I'm just a detective, not an assassin. Is there a less bloody way?"
For example, using words to intimidate others?
Cheng Xiaoyu put the book back and took out another one that was much thinner than the first one. "Then let's take this 'Torture Encyclopedia'. The editor-in-chief is also a detective. It includes instructions on how to torture without causing death, using bare hands or using the surrounding terrain and small props. The intensity ranges from 'can be treated in the hospital within an hour with no sequelae (not including psychological trauma)' to 'maybe they will go to the ICU, but they will definitely not die if they are sent to the hospital in time'. You can choose according to your personal needs. For a less bloody method, you can turn to the skeleton section. Considering your age and lack of strength, my suggestion is to start with bending your fingers backwards. This is also the method recommended by the editor-in-chief."
Edogawa Conan couldn't help but took the book and opened it. He wanted to see whose detective was so brave and talented in both literature and martial arts!
When you open the first page of the book, you will see a pitch-black bat logo.
“…”
Edogawa Conan closed his eyes and closed the book.
That's not surprising... That's not surprising.
