Conan's grammatical investigator

Akira Kato lifted the man over his head with one hand, and with the other hand that was damaged by the blast, he removed the gauze from the man's head, revealing his true face underneath.

"Jie Jie, it really is you. Mr. Detective Gulu..."

Kato Akira's voice was hoarse, and when he spoke, there was a gurgling sound from the bottom of his throat.

Because his condition was not good at this time, Kato Akira himself was also within the range of the explosion just now, several pitch-black holes were blasted out on the front of his body, and half of his throat and even a corner of his face were blasted to pieces.

But he didn't die in a daze, and even had the strength to lift a 185-foot man like Qin Zhibo over his head.

"Greetings for my grandma."

Akira Kato mentioned someone with a hoarse voice, but Qin Zhibo couldn't pay attention to what he said, and tried his best to break the arm that was holding his skirt with both hands.

But this arm is like iron tongs, clamping people tightly.

Qin Zhibo was secretly startled, when he fought with Akira Kato before, strength was not his strong point, but now he seems to have completely reborn.

And when the believers were fighting among themselves just now, the black pointed spine he used to instantly kill Aunt Lin also looked very strange, it seemed to be a weapon that grew in his hand?
Taking advantage of being able to touch Akira Kato's arm, Qin Zhibo quickly investigated, but got an amazing character card.

【Investigation√】

Name: Akira Kato
Power: 100
Agility: 90
Constitution: 400
Will: 10
The information was presented one by one, Qin Zhibo had never seen such a BT panel.

Constitution 400!

It is eight times that of ordinary people!
The speed of force also made a huge leap. Although I didn't know what kind of body stats Kato Akira had before, I definitely couldn't reach such a speed of force.

What is going on?

While struggling with his hands and twisting his arms, Qin Zhibo paid attention to observe Akira Kato's body.

This is also the advantage of steel will, as long as it is not facing the true god that cannot be seen directly, the cosmic power that cuts the will to the end in one breath, can still keep calm.

In Kato Akira's semi-hollow body, a stream of black amorphous liquid was vaguely flowing and shuttling.

At first, it felt like blackened blood, but upon closer inspection, it was much more dynamic than blood, like a black oil vortex swimming in the body.

black liquid?Is it a creature?
looks like venom
When Qin Zhibo was confused, Kato Akira saw through his thoughts, grinned with a hole in his mouth, and smiled.

"Are you looking at this guy?"

"It's called Xiuji, and as long as you get to know it well, it's still a cute little guy."

"Knives and guns are ineffective against Xiuji, and because he can change his shape at will, there is no problem in exile into human blood vessels, and he can do many super convenient things."

While speaking, the holes in Akira Kato's body were gradually filled with black liquid, and new flesh and blood were formed in the vacant positions, and his voice gradually returned to normal.

Seeing such a familiar introduction, Qin Zhibo was surprised.

black, shapeless
What kind of "Shoggoth" is this? This is Shoggoth at all!

Inside of him is a shoggoth!

On Tianbu Mountain, Qin Zhibo saw with his own eyes that those black shapeless monsters would only eat human flesh and blood, so how could they stay in Kato Akira's body safe and sound now?
Moreover, Shoggoth seems to have formed a symbiotic relationship with him as a host, a balanced state of mutual support, similar to venom.

But in fact, Shoggoths can survive independently without parasitism, and the human body is just food for this creature.

Akira Kato must have used some means.

It is definitely impossible to face the monster with such a luxurious panel head-on, so we must think of other ways
"Mr. Detective, remember when you and I were at the port in Shinagawa?"

"Back then I had to jump into the sea to escape, but now our situation seems to have changed a lot~"

Kato Akira's throat and mouth had almost recovered, and he began to talk endlessly.

This wasn't the classic villain talking too much, but he was also seriously injured in the explosion just now, so he had to stop and wait for Xiuji's "recovery".

Xiuji, that is, Shoggoth, what it provides is not healing ability, but the ability to transform the shapeless black and bright protoplasm into human flesh, an ability to "supplement" flesh and blood.

This is a unique ability bestowed upon them by their creator.

Because this ability is too powerful, it will not be eliminated by most extreme environments, but in the end, their creator will be eliminated.

As for how to eliminate it, it is similar to the common robot defeating humans in science fiction films.

However, Shoggoths are not absolutely powerful. They were created to be slaves, and the slavishness of the race can never be erased.

After the Elders disappeared, many other intelligent races tried to drive the Shoggoths, and they succeeded with simple spells.

Akira Kato also accidentally spit out a R'lyeh spell, which made these Shoggoths successfully recognize their masters.

Now, with these tireless repairs, his body has gradually become complete, and the exposed tendons on the other arm are covered by newly formed skin.

"Okay~"

Akira Kato's tone relaxed. Since he got Xiuji, it was the first time he had suffered such a serious injury.

Knowing that his body is almost immortal, he grinned directly to the base of his ears, and laughed wildly like he lost his mind.

"Ha ha ha ha--"

"What an invincible force!"

He was running wild when he suddenly noticed that Qin Zhibo reached into his coat with one hand and took out a brown wallet from it.

"Eh?" Akira Kato was stunned for a moment, and said contemptuously, "Now that things are going on, you don't mean to buy me with money, do you?"

What could be in the wallet?Of course it's money.

But to his surprise, Qin Zhibo fumbled in his wallet and found a badge.

Qin Zhibo quickly raised his hand, and stuck the side of the badge with the distorted five-pointed star on Kato Akira's forehead.

The cold and hard touch came from the skin, and Kato Akira just froze for a moment without any reaction.

But in the next second, a layer of black goose bumps appeared from the position where the badge was attached, like a circle of ripples spreading from the forehead to the body, just like the transformation of Mystique.

"vomit--"

A strong feeling of nausea emerged from the abdomen, accompanied by the black liquid on the surface of the body rolling and bulging like a sea, and the hair all over the body seemed to have received some kind of huge stimulation.

Akira Kato, whose body had mostly turned into a squirrel, had to let go of his hands, took two steps back trembling, and lay on the ground retching.

"Ugh what did you do! Ugh."

Seeing Kato Akira's strong rejection, Qin Zhibo knew that he was right.

The old seal has the ability to drive away evil spirits, and can make strange creatures and even gods who cannot be seen directly feel extremely disgusted, which is shown in "The Secret of the Worm".

Akira Kato was able to drive the shoggoths who can only eat human flesh, and he must have used some kind of magical method.

That being the case, I use magic to defeat magic.

Sure enough, the old seal is like a cross to vampires to these evil creatures, unless the ancestor level like Dracula goes out in person, it is still possible to frighten these little guys.

As a human being, Kato Akira had no reason to be affected by the old seal.

But now most of his body is Shoggoth, and he is affected by it instead.

While Akira Kato was still retching, Qin Zhibo quickly got up from the ground, carried the stunned Ryohei Matsumoto behind his back, put his other arm around Minase Harumi's waist, and walked towards the door.

For some reason, Qin Zhibo now feels that the girl's weight is much lighter than when they first met, and now even Conan has more weight than her.

Is it because those believers are gone?
Minase Harumeng was born because of the thought power of the believers. What would be the consequences if the believers were lost?

Qin Zhibo didn't dare to continue thinking, so he ran out of here first.

But at this moment, a fierce murderous aura approached again, and a black tentacle struck from behind.

Qin Zhibo, who had been keeping an eye on the rear, turned sideways quickly. Although he avoided the sharp blow, his body with the two on his back could not maintain his balance and fell to the ground.

Akira Kato got up from the ground in resentment, the original intact face and forehead were scratched by himself, and black blood flowed straight out, looking like a madman.

"Woo—cuckoo." Kato Akira's throat continued to growl like a beast.

His san value has completely returned to zero.

That body is no longer limited to maintaining the human form, and the arm turns into a black drill bit and rotates at a high speed, like a black whirlwind growing on the arm.

The other arm turned into a thick tentacle, acquired the characteristic of extreme extension, and grabbed it with a vigorous swing.

not good!

Seeing the black tentacles approaching rapidly, Qin Zhibo knew that being caught would mean instant death, so he must not be caught.

At the critical moment, Qin Zhibo threw out the [Bait Doll] from the props bar and blocked it in front of his body.

The bait doll restores Qin Zhibo's appearance 1:1, and Kato Akira has now returned to zero, unable to distinguish too many things, so he directly captures the poor doll back.

The thick and long tentacles wrapped around the body of the bait doll, and the black dragon drill on the other hand directly stabbed at the doll's body.

Bright red flesh flew in the black drill, and the blood bar of the bait doll dropped rapidly at an unbelievable speed.

The blood volume of the decoy puppet is probably thicker than that of a normal person. Before dying, the arms tied on both sides of the body did not forget to put up a middle finger.

This is not the first time that Qin Zhibo has sold a decoy doll, and every time he can get relatively good results. Akira Kato seems to have to completely tear up the doll in front of him before giving up. He didn't notice that there is another one in the distance. Qin Zhibo.

But Akira Kato is not the only one who can't tell the truth from the fake.

Minase Harumi, who was lying on the ground, slowly raised her head. At this time, she was very weak, with no strength in her body, as if she had been hollowed out.

But when she saw "Qin Zhibo" in the distance being ravaged by black tentacles, her eyes suddenly went blank and lost all light.

With her head drooping weakly, she staggered towards Akira Kato.

"Hey!"

The real Qin Zhibo yelled from behind, but Minase Harumi had lost consciousness, walking towards the palace like a controlled puppet.

At the same time, clusters of gray mist emerged from the shattered fog painting in the hall, flowing past Kato Akira's body, and continuously gathering on the girl's body.

In the ever-growing fog, the shadow of a slender body also became bigger and bigger, just like in the painting.

The height of the body began to expand as the mist spread, and soon reached the dome of the church.

No one knows what the reason is, it seems to be a shadow cast by a certain cosmic power in the mist, if the mist can reach the height of the mountain, this slender body will grow as huge as the mountain.

Akira Kato, who was mad at the doll, seemed to have noticed the movement here, his round eyes stared at the mist, and in the next second, he stretched out his tentacles towards the mist.

The black tentacles pierced into the mist, but suddenly, as if the two ends of the line were tense, they were firmly fixed.

Bang!
The black tentacles made of Shoggoths suddenly split and cut off, and black blood spewed out from the cross-section like scattered flowers.

But from the beginning to the end, the body in the mist didn't move.

No one can tell what kind of existence is in the mist, let alone what is happening inside, everything is a terrifying and strange unknown.

Xiuji on Kato Akira's body seemed to feel great terror, his deformed skin was bulging, and he seemed to be unable to maintain his shape.

But Akira Kato, who had already lost his mind, didn't care about this, and manipulated the other hand to stab the body in the mist.

Chick - Chick -

The black Xiuji kept deforming, and the friction produced a strange sound.

But the moment Xiuji sank into the mist, these voices disappeared immediately.

It was as if the world in the mist was separated from the outside world by a space-time boundary, and anyone who tried to invade it would immediately disappear without a trace, as if being swallowed up.

Both of Kato Akira's arms were easily cut off by the mist. Even though he was demented and wanted to attack, the repairs all over his body had already resisted to the extreme, and he had no intention of cooperating.

The mist was still spreading in the church, and the slender body inside became more and more strange, as if showing some kind of spatial rhythm.

Any existence swallowed by the fog seems to be pulled into another weird and unknown world, cutting off all evidence of its existence in this world.

Qin Zhibo felt that going on like this was not an option, and he couldn't let the mist fall on this world.

He stared hard at the fog, and suddenly, he threw the prop in his hand.

This is an investigator's hand bone, with a rope tied at the end, and it is a prop called [Flying Claw] by the system.

Flying Claw submerged into the mist and immediately disappeared. The sound, picture, and even the texture of existence completely disappeared. Qin Zhibo seemed to be pulling a rope that was tied to nothing.

But he doesn't care about that, the flying claw will automatically grab any object it touches.

After waiting for ten seconds, he began to pull the rope with all his strength, and the rope that had been immersed in the mist before was pulled out inch by inch.

Suddenly, the strength on the other end of the flying claw slackened, and a body floated out of it, crashing into Qin Zhibo's arms.

What Flying Claw caught was Minase Harumi, but she had passed out again at this moment, and her body became lighter, as if she was nothing.

But even so, the fog did not dissipate, only the slender body in the fog disappeared.

Qin Zhibo stared into the fog, and then he realized that the people in the fog are not important.

The mist is the real body.
