Rebirth of Conan as a Detective

Chapter 8: Got a wooden knife

   The next day, Gao Cheng slept until noon. When he woke up, Kogoro Mouri and his party had already left. He didn't stay long, and rushed back to the detective office with the kitten he caught last night.

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

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

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

   The extra 1 point seems to be a commission from the cat. As for the question mark option, he remembers that this can be used to redeem special items.

   Gao Cheng hesitated, and curiously selected the question mark at the back.

   With a clear reminder, Gao Cheng looked painfully at the prestige value suddenly cleared, leaving only a lonely 1 point.

   "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 rare items, wooden sword Toya Lake, you can summon at any time." A wooden sword appeared in his hand out of thin air.

   "Ehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh?! 100 reputation value, 100,000 yen, is it a broken wooden knife?"

   Gao Cheng held the wooden knife with wide eyes.

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

   Even though he was originally a kendo learner, he is not Allsiya Ain, and it is not the Edo period now...

   "A wooden knife of 100,000 yen."

  Want to lose it but reluctant to bear it, Gao Cheng silently took the wooden knife back into the system like a baby.

   is also an artifact that can be summoned at will, not to be wasted.

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

   The media moves very fast, perhaps because of the involvement of the big star Yoko Okino, which takes up a lot of space.

   And the conflict between Taeko Dougaki and Moruo Anzai was also reported in great detail.

When   Ms. Myoko 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. Anzai was the friend she made at that time.

   Once, Taeko accidentally told Anzai about the shrine ritual equipment, and then Anzai stolen the high-priced ritual equipment. As a result, the person in charge of the warehouse committed suicide.

   Taeko, who has reformed because of self-blame, buried the past in her heart, but now when she is about to get married, she meets Anzai again...

   "Huh?" Gao Chengzheng sighed at Taeko Dougaki's experience. After turning a few pages, he gradually felt something was wrong.

   Yesterday’s murder at the shrine was indeed reported, but what is unbelievable is that in all the reports, it was the detective Kogoro Mouri who solved the case without mentioning him at all.

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

   "Snee!" At the same time, at the Maori detective office on the other side of Miaohua City, Conan sneezed unexplainably while looking at the newspaper with a bewildered look.

   "Strange, did I solve the incident yesterday? I seem to have forgotten something."

  ...

   Three days later, Qiben Island.

   Gaocheng waited bitterly at the pier.

   On the day when he exchanged for "Lake Toya", he received another case from the system that occurred on the sea, "Sequential Murders of Luxury Passenger Ships".

   The time of the incident is this evening, but the location will take place on a luxury cruise ship boarded by the Kimoto family.

   How to get on the ship is a big problem for him. Fortunately, the incident information stated that the cruise ship will pass through this island, so he arrived on this island early.

   Near the time of the event, Qiben's family had only finished a wedding on the island, but there was no sign of leaving for a while, and he could only wait here at the pier.

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

  Luxury cruise ships are like five-star hotels on the sea, and such a large-scale charter ship is really not an ordinary rich person.

   Gao Cheng kept staring at the movement on the dock, and 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 onto the ship, Gao Cheng mixed in nervously.

   "Really, the incident happened at sea. How did Conan get on the boat?"

   After a pile of sundries boarded the boat, Gao Cheng breathed a sigh of relief, and quickly took advantage of no one to find another corner to hide.

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

   Gao Cheng touched his somewhat hungry stomach, and while waiting, the cruise ship soon sounded a long whistle and officially left Ciben Island.

   On the deck of the cruise ship, Maurilan and Conan were excited to admire the beautiful sea.

   "Wow, what a beautiful sunset!" Moulilan blew the sea breeze and turned to Conan Road. "It is so lucky to be able to catch such a luxurious cruise, right, Conan?"

"Yes, UU reading www.uukānshu.com" Conan curled his lips and looked at Kogoro Mori who was sleeping behind, "It is all due to the uncle who made the wrong time for the return journey of the ship, so we have the opportunity to board such a luxurious passenger ship... "

   Mao Lilan was also very helpless: "Really, I thought that my dad had contacted him, and the result was such a big omission. Fortunately, this ship happened to pass by, otherwise it might be stuck on the island for three or four days."

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

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

   "If something happens now, why can't that guy get here? Ha ha." Conan laughed out of conjecture, and then shook his head to stop thinking.

   "Really, what am I thinking, how could it be possible for such a coincidence to happen."

   Inside the cruise ship, Gao Cheng was too hungry. He fumbled and walked out of the kitchen. He was about to find something to eat when there was a roar on the deck.

   "Asshole thing! What's the matter?!" Qiben family head master Qiben scolded, "Isn't this ship packaged by our Qiben family? Why do you let outsiders get on the ship?!"

   "Huh?" Gao Cheng was taken aback, and then he realized that he was not talking about himself.

   just stood at the door of the kitchen, but Gao Cheng hesitated.

   To be honest, it’s too much for him to sneak on the boat without permission. Wouldn’t it be a thief to go to the kitchen to find something to eat?

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

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