Rebirth of Conan as a Detective

The next day, Gao Cheng slept until noon. When he woke up, Mori Kogoro and his party had already left, and he didn't stay for long. He rushed back to the detective agency with the kitten he caught after a long day of tossing around last night.

He figured he would never have a cat again in his life.

After receiving 20,000 yuan from the client, Gao Cheng took the newspaper he bought from outside and lay down on the sofa in the office tiredly.

Before reading the report on last night’s case in the newspaper, I turned on the detective system again, and when I was thinking about whether to exchange some cash, I found that the reputation value had changed to 101, and besides the option to exchange cash, there was also an option marked with a question mark .

The extra 1 point seems to be entrusted by looking for a cat. As for the question mark option, he remembers that this can be used to exchange for special items.

Gao Cheng hesitated for a moment, and curiously chose the question mark at the back.

Following a clear reminder, Gao Cheng watched in pain as the reputation point was emptied, leaving only 1 point alone.

"Be sure to work harder!"

"Boom!" The question mark option in the light curtain flickered for a while, and an item card was generated under Gao Cheng's gaze.

"what is this?"

"Obtain a rare item, the wooden knife Lake Toya, which can be summoned at any time." A wooden knife appeared in his hand out of thin air.

"Eh?! 100 prestige points, 100,000 yen, is it just a broken wooden knife?"

Gao Cheng stared wide-eyed and held the wooden knife.

Although the "Lake Toya" on the handle is very conspicuous, it is actually just an ordinary wooden knife, right?

Even though he originally learned swordsmanship, he is not a Yin of the Master of Everything, and it is not the Edo period now...

"A wooden sword worth 100,000 yen."

Wanting to lose it but reluctant, Gao Cheng silently put the wooden knife back into the system like a treasure.

Anyway, it is also an artifact that can be summoned at will, so it cannot be wasted.

After putting down the wooden knife, Gao Cheng turned his attention to the newspaper.

The media acted very quickly, perhaps because of the involvement of the big star Yoko Okino, which took up a lot of space.

And the conflict between Mamegaki Taeko and Anzai Morio was also reported in detail.

When Ms. Taeko was in high school, her parents died in an accident. During the rebellious period, she did not go to school and became a bad girl. Anxi was her friend at that time.

Once, Taeko accidentally told Anzai about the sacrificial utensils at the shrine, and then Anzai stole the expensive sacrificial utensils, which caused the person in charge of the warehouse to commit suicide.

Taeko, who reformed herself because of self-blame, buried the past in her heart, but met Anzai again when she was about to get married...

"Huh?" Gao Cheng was lamenting what happened to Mamegaki Taeko, and after turning a few pages, he gradually felt something was wrong.

The homicide incident at the shrine was indeed reported in the newspapers yesterday, but what is incredible is that in all the reports, the famous detective Mori Kogoro solved the case, and he was not mentioned at all.

"What's going on here?" Gao Cheng thumped in his heart, and subconsciously looked at himself with only 1 reputation left.

"Ah!" At the same time, in the Maori Detective Agency on the other side of Mihua City, Conan read the newspaper and sneezed for no reason, with a bewildered expression.

"Strange, did I solve yesterday's incident? It seems that I forgot something."

...

Three days later, Banner Island.

Gao Cheng waited bitterly by the pier.

On the day the "Lake Toya" was exchanged, he received another case from the system, the "serial murder case on a luxury liner," which happened at sea.

The time of the event is this evening, but the location will be on a luxury cruise ship that the Banner family is on board.

How to get on the ship was a big problem for him. Fortunately, the incident information stated that the cruise ship would pass by the island, so he rushed to the island in advance.

As the time of the incident approached, the Banner family had just held a wedding on the island.

But there was no sign of leaving for a while, so he could only wait here at the pier.

In fact, there is a luxurious big ship parked on the pier right now, but he has no chance to get on it, not only because of lack of money, but also because the whole ship has been chartered by Banner's family.

A luxury cruise ship is like a five-star hotel on the sea. Chartering such a big deal is really not an ordinary rich person.

Gao Cheng kept staring at the movements on the pier, and just before he lost his patience, he finally found a way to get on the boat.

Taking advantage of the opportunity of the crew to carry the luggage on board, Gao Cheng nervously sneaked in.

"Really, the incident happened at sea, how did that guy Conan get on the boat?"

After a pile of sundries boarded the boat without any risk, Gao Cheng heaved a sigh of relief, and quickly found another corner to hide while no one noticed.

The first step is considered a success, and the next step is to wait for the ship to leave the dock.

Gao Cheng rubbed his hungry stomach, and while waiting, the cruise ship sounded a long whistle and officially left Banner Island.

On the deck of the cruise ship, Mao Lilan and Conan excitedly admired the beautiful scenery of the sea.

"Wow, what a beautiful sunset!" Mao Lilan turned to Conan after blowing the sea breeze, "I'm so lucky to be able to board such a luxurious cruise, right, Conan?"

"That's right," Conan pouted and looked at Mori Kogoro who was sleeping in the back, "It's all thanks to my uncle making a mistake about the return time of the ship, so we have the opportunity to board such a luxurious passenger ship..."

Mao Lilan was also very helpless: "Really, I thought my dad had already contacted me, but there was such a big mistake. Fortunately, this ship happened to pass by, otherwise I might be stuck on the island for three or four days."

Conan smiled, but thought of Gao Cheng in his heart.

I met Gao Cheng one after another in the past few days, and I don't know why he always felt a little depressed, especially the Mihua Shrine case. Although he helped Mori Kogoro solve it, I always felt that something was wrong.

"If something happens now, why can't that guy come here? Hehe." Conan laughed imaginatively, and then shook his head to stop his wild thinking.

"Really, what am I thinking, how could such a coincidence happen."

Inside the cruise ship, Gao Cheng was so hungry that he couldn't stand it, he groped his way out of the kitchen, and was about to find something to eat, when suddenly there was a roar on the deck.

"You bastard! What's going on here?!" The head of the Banner family, Mr. Banner, scolded, "Isn't this ship chartered by our Banner family? Why do you still let outsiders board the ship?!"

"Ah?" Gao Cheng was taken aback, and then realized that it wasn't about himself.

Just standing at the door of the kitchen, Gao Cheng hesitated.

To be honest, it was already too much for him to sneak onto the ship without permission. Wouldn't it be tantamount to a thief if he went to the kitchen to find something to eat?

"Why don't you confess to the master? The incident is about to happen, if you don't hurry up..."

"Huh?!" An old housekeeper happened to pass by the kitchen and exclaimed when he saw Gao Cheng, "Who are you?"
