Conan's grammatical investigator

Chapter 824 Conan: This is Shoggoth!!!

During the period of living in the office, Conan has long been used to the passive sabotage of Mori Kogoro.

Every time he receives the final payment of the commission fee, Mori Kogoro has to go to izakayas and clubs to be chic, and find those vulgar fans who are far worse than Fei Yingli to accompany the wine.

For this reason, Mao Lilan, who was looking for someone, kicked down countless clubhouse doors.

Over time, these clubs and izakaya wanted to join forces to put Mao Lilan on the blacklist, but they were afraid of Mao Lilan's high force value. None of the waiters in the shop dared to provoke this "horned girl".

Don't let Kogoro Mori in, Kogoro Mori is also a detective.

If Bao Buqi has a homicide in his own business place one day, there may be other things to ask for.

Therefore, the nearby izakayas and clubs can only succumb to the silver prestige of the two heroes of Mori, and dare not speak out.

But this time, Mori Kogoro really didn't choose to give up his job simply for the sake of sabotage.

Conan raised his head, looked at the father and daughter who were choking each other, and said with a harmless expression: "I remember that Uncle Maori is the most afraid of heights?"

"To attend the opening ceremony of the aerial cable car, you must try the aerial cable car, right?"

After Conan reminded, Mao Lilan also remembered this problem of her father, "Yeah, I forgot this."

Kogoro Mori behind the desk blushed a little, but he couldn't deny it.

After all, people around me, including old colleagues from the Metropolitan Police Department, knew about my fear of heights.

Immediately, Mao Lilan murmured again: "But I have already promised, it would be too impolite to go back on it now?"

Conan smiled slightly, picked up the literary time magazine in his hand, pointed his index finger at the subtitle in the upper right corner of the magazine cover, and reminded: "If you find a famous detective with the same rank as a substitute, wouldn't it be a perfect solution?"

Mao Lilan walked over to pick up the literary times magazine, and the author's name on it made her eyes shine.

Zhibo Detective Agency.

Qin Zhibo was fishing at work when he suddenly received a call from Mao Lilan.

"Want to invite me to the opening ceremony of the cable car in Tianbu Mountain?"

Qin Zhibo frowned, feeling that the problem was not simple, "But why didn't their staff contact me, but you Xiaolan?"

"Could it be that, Xiaolan, you have already applied to work in the other party's company?"

"Ha, no~" Mao Lilan laughed awkwardly, and could only tell the truth, "Actually, the other party invited my father, but my father is afraid of heights, so it's not convenient, so please come and help."

"Of course, I can give you all the agreed rewards."

money
Just picked up a huge sum of money for nothing, Qin Zhibo's desire to make money is not very strong.

Moreover, the other party entrusted Mori Kogoro first, and he appeared as a substitute detective. It seemed a bit embarrassing if he went there, giving people a feeling that "Qin Zhibo is Mori Kogoro's inferior replacement".

But Mao Lilan's strong luck just made him a fortune, so he couldn't help it.

"It doesn't matter if it's money or not. I just want to know, if I go, will Conan go too?"

Mao Lilan on the other side of the phone was startled, what's the matter with Conan here?
Conan, who was eavesdropping on the phone, immediately showed an expression of "I do" when Qin Zhibo mentioned himself, his eyes full of anticipation.

Seeing this, Mao Lilan had no choice but to reply: "Conan is willing to go."

Qin Zhibo replied without thinking: "Then I have no problem."

"Tomorrow morning at 7 o'clock, Mihua Station, see you soon."

After finishing speaking, Qin Zhibo hung up the phone at the speed of light, as if he was afraid that someone would go back on his word.

In fact, money or not is really not important, but the case is different.

Where Conan haunts, there are often dead people haunting them.

However, recently, Conan's trigger probability for daily cases is a bit low. Basically, they are all main tasks, or nothing is triggered at all.

Side quests are like rice in a bowl. Although the amount is small, it is full, one bowl after another.

The main task is like rice in a pot. Although the quantity is large, it must be cooked fresh, and the supply is still limited.

The most ideal and happiest state for a person is to eat what is in the bowl and look at what is in the pot.

Otherwise, there would be no rewards for side quests, and this week would have to wait until the Year of the Monkey.

Therefore, recently, Qin Zhibo is planning to check Conan's KPI as much as possible.

On the side of the Mori office, Conan was a little excited, looking forward to tomorrow's trip to Mount Tianbu.

In his hand, he was holding the latest issue of Literary Times magazine, which published Qin Zhibo's debut novel - "Crazy Mountains Part [-]".

As the revealing chapter of the entire "Mountain of Madness", Conan has been looking forward to it for a week.

Originally, the new issue of the Literature and Art Times could be released on Monday, but the rice flower printing factory in charge of printing the magazine was maliciously set on fire by an unknown person, which caused a delay in the release, and it was not released until Saturday.

Conan, who learned of the release of the new issue, went to the bookstore to buy it as soon as possible in the morning. When he came back and was about to read it, he encountered a strike by Mori Kogoro.

Now that the problem is solved, Conan wants to suppress his inner expectations for the time being, and wait until tomorrow to see Qin Zhibo, and read the content carefully in front of the original author.

The advantage of this is that if you have any doubts in your heart, you can ask them face to face.

Except for reading comprehension questions, no speculation can be more convincing than the author's own personal statement.

Especially the subtitle on the cover of the magazine——Under the Mountain of Madness, a wonderful collision between grotesqueism and reality!
This gave Conan a lot of guesswork.

Could it be that Qin Zhibo described an absolutely shocking modus operandi, so much so that he described it as "grotesque".

Who was the murderer who killed that camp?
Is it someone from the camp?Biologist Lake?
If a large number of corpses are dismembered and severely damaged, it is theoretically possible to hide one of them.

As for the five-pointed star tomb and the traces of dragging towards the cave, they should all be smoke bombs released by the murderer, with the purpose of
In short, the truth about the Crazy Mountains is in Conan's hands at the moment.

But in order to get the best reading experience, Conan plans to wait until he meets the author himself tomorrow, and then open this surprise.

Today, just bear with it.

Just like patience and Mao Lilan's stickers, endure first.

The next day, Sunday.

At 06:30 in the morning, Qin Zhibo sacrificed his morning news and set off from the office to Mihua Station.

After waiting for a while, two familiar figures walked into the entrance of the station, a spire and a dome.

"Good morning, Xiaolan. And Conan."

When talking about Conan, Qin Zhibo deliberately bent his body, put his palm on Conan's shoulder and patted twice, his eyes filled with anticipation, as if "I'll take care of you today".

"Good morning, Mr. Qin."

"I'm counting on you today."

With an infectious smile on her face, Mao Lilan bowed to Qin Zhibo.

I have to say that Mao Lilan's clothes are very good. The beige-colored jacket is matched with a blue turtleneck sweater, and the lower body is gray-green trousers. It looks youthful and beautiful without losing its solemnity.

Although there are no famous brands or expensive things all over her body, she can wear the temperament of a female star.

Of course, this is more due to the fact that Mao Lilan is a hanger herself, and it makes sense to wear whatever she wears.

With a perfect body proportion and a 90-point appearance, Conan has a good vision.
Qin Zhibo set his eyes on Conan. Today, Conan is still the blue jersey with the most appearances, but there is an extra brown schoolbag behind him.

"Eh? Why is Conan still carrying a schoolbag?" Qin Zhibo teased, "Could it be that he hasn't finished his vacation homework yet?

Conan shook his eyes for a half moon. Although his body has become smaller, his IQ has not regressed. As for the fact that he can't even handle homework for elementary school students?
Mao Lilan on the side explained: "It contained the book Conan wanted to read very much, so I took it with me."

"Oh"

Qin Zhibo nodded, knowing it well, and then patted Conan on the head, "Good for children who love to read, the future can be expected."

Conan was helpless again.

So I want to read what you wrote!
Tianbu Mountain is located in Shizuoka County. Starting from Tokyo, you need to take a tram to Shizuoka County, and then transfer to Tianbu Mountain.

The whole journey has accumulated 2 hours, whether it is far or not, whether it is close or not.

At present, the charging price of Qin Zhibo's famous detective is 20 yuan in Tokyo, and 50 yuan outside of Tokyo, if it is not for small cases such as looking for pets or catching an affair.

If it is a remote place as far as Shikoku Island in the south and Hokkaido in the north, the charging standard is even higher.

Therefore, the residents of these places generally do not recognize famous detectives in Tokyo, and rarely receive invitations from there.

Although Qin Zhibo's social credit is slightly lower than Mori Kogoro's, the two belong to the same class, and even have the same market positioning, and they both follow the line of uncle and sportsman.

So logically speaking, the entrustment received by Mori Kogoro to attend the event this time is a standard job of 50 yuan.

It's just that Mao Lilan said that this time the family generously promised a commission fee of 100 million.

As a detective, Qin Zhibo knows that there must be ghosts when things go wrong.

Besides, I brought Conan this time, so if there are no ghosts, there will be ghosts.

But the question now is, how to get the 100 million fee before the accident?
Although there is no shortage of money now, if Minase Harumi is really adopted in the future, she will cost much more than a mouse.

As a man who runs the house, I have to plan for the future!

While Qin Zhibo was staring blankly at the beautiful scenery of the mountains and rivers, thinking about how to collect the bill in advance, Conan who was sitting opposite took out the Literature and Art Times magazine from his schoolbag.

finally come!

Conan looked at the latest issue of Literature and Art Times on the table, with a touch of impulsiveness in his eyes, and a rippling smile on the corner of his mouth.

"Crazy Mountains Part II"!
I can finally watch it!

What kind of experience is it to sit in front of the original author and read an extraordinary article?
He used to be Kudo Shinichi, and when the Kudo couple didn't go abroad, he could often experience this feeling.

But that was a long time ago.

This revealing chapter is a chapter that Conan has been waiting for for a long time. After twists and turns, it was finally released. It is really not easy to see it now.

Conan stroked the cover of the literary era with both hands, and looked up at Qin Zhibo, wanting to signal to the original author that he was about to start reading.

However, Qin Zhibo didn't look this way, but just stared out of the window blankly.

".cough, cough"

Helpless, Conan had to cough twice to get the original author's attention.

But Mao Lilan, who heard the cough, turned her head first, and asked with concern: "Conan, what's wrong with you? Do you have a cold?"

"Aha? No." Conan quickly fooled, "I want to read a book."

After Conan's reminder, Mao Lilan noticed that the book Conan brought was a literary times magazine.

"Conan, is this the magazine you want to read?"

"Yeah." Conan nodded vigorously.

Mao Lilan glanced at the cover of the magazine, and was surprised: "This "Crazy Mountains: Next" seems to be the work of Mr. Qin, right? Has it been published now?"

"Hmm, um!" Conan nodded vigorously twice.

Only then did Qin Zhibo turn his head, his eyes were a little dazed, "Oh, so it's the Crazy Mountains."

"I wrote the work a long time ago, and I have somewhat forgotten the content in it."

As soon as this remark came out, Conan was immediately surprised.

What is "a long time ago"?Didn't this just come out yesterday?
Although it has been delayed, didn't you say last week that you are writing it now?

Conan was very curious about the follow-up content before, so Hattori Heiji asked on the sidelines instead of his good brother.

As a result, Qin Zhibo said that the content of the revealing chapter was still being conceived, so he didn't know.

So, Qin Zhibo wrote it last week, but he almost forgot it this week?

Is this your attitude towards your own work?
In fact, Qin Zhibo can't be blamed for this incident, after all, the time span of a week is too long, and "Crazy Mountains: Next" is a ghostwriter + puppet.

It was not written by me, so naturally I have no impression.

"Okay, I'm going to start reading~" Out of politeness, Conan announced.

Out of kindness, Qin Zhibo also reminded: "Although it's good that you love reading, after all, you're riding in a car now, and reading at this time can easily make you dizzy."

"." Conan weighed in his heart, he couldn't wait any longer.

"It's okay, I can handle it."

With an attitude of appreciation, Conan immediately turned to the page where "Mountains of Madness" was located.

Although I refrained from reading it yesterday, my curiosity seduced me to keep turning the pages of the book, which resulted in this page forming a memory, and I arrived as soon as I turned it.

The beginning follows the plot of the previous one.

Professor Dale found a large number of broken limbs and broken arms in the camp, as well as traces of dragging to the depths of the cave, so he decided to rescue possible survivors.
With the deepening of reading, the expression on Conan's face gradually became complicated.

In this complexity, there are five points of case thinking, three points of inexplicable doubts, one point of social thinking, and one point of anxiety about "high energy ahead".

What kind of tricks can be called "the collision of grotesqueism and reality"?

As little hands turned page after page, Conan was gradually fascinated.

When the text gradually spread out the background of the plot, the tense scenes of intensive fear rushed to the face, and the rapid-fire text performance made Conan's eyes overwhelmed.

Different from the excellence of "I can't bear to read", this is a plot that begins slowly and progresses from the climax to the end in one go, making people unable to stop reading once they enter the reading state.

The word "End" at the end is a perfect full stop, drawing a rest for the full text of "Crazy Mountains".

Until now, Conan didn't understand why the editor's comment was "grotesque".

I never expected it
This is the Shoggoth! ! !
