Conan: Start with three choices, but sequence potion

Chapter 238 Before Becoming a God
"And I have also cracked your method of poisoning." Kudo Shinichi shook the cup in his hand, his eyes sharp.

“The key is the ice.”

"Ice, ice cubes?" everyone was puzzled.

"That's right." Kudo Shinichi opened the lid of the cup, revealing the bubbling black cola. "Just now, Miss Hong Shang Mai specifically mentioned that she also drank the beverage because she was very confident in her poisoning method."

"This isn't just ordinary ice, it's specially made hollow dry ice."

"She planned this case by taking advantage of the fact that dry cups are not easy to sublime in low temperature environments."

"As long as you inject cyanide into the hollow dry ice in advance, and then use the convenience of buying drinks to put the dry ice into the two cups with iced coffee written on them, and then use the excuse of going to the toilet to provide yourself with an alibi, and let others distribute the drinks, you can reduce your suspicion."

"But if you know anything about Mr. Urata Kohei, you should know his favorite drink and use it to control a false 'random poisoning'."

"Since the temperature of the drink is very low, it won't sublime for a long time, so there is no need to worry about this poisoning method harming yourself."

"But, but if that's the case, how can we make Urata fall for it?" Noda Yumeyasu was very puzzled, "The dry ice in his cup shouldn't melt."

Kudo Shinichi glanced at Urata Kohei, whose expression had become extremely frightened.

"Then you'll have to ask Mr. Urata himself."

He leaned over and brought the cup of Coke in front of him. "What kind of habit would allow you to fall for such a trick without any defense?"

Urata Kohei leaned back in his seat, away from the drink that seemed so terrifying to him, and said in a trembling voice: "I, every time I finish a drink, I like to eat the remaining ice cubes in it."

!

Everyone looked over in horror.

Once these words were spoken, they were no longer just the imagination of the young detective, but became truly feasible and logical reasoning!

Mai Hongue didn't say anything, and Hattori Heiji noticed that her hand hanging by her side was clenched into a fist, and she didn't look calm.

"In order to transport the dry ice containing the poison, I think the murderer would definitely not choose to carry a bag that could be easily searched afterwards, but would carry it with him."

"But if you put it in your pocket, the dry ice may melt prematurely due to body temperature, and once the police conduct a follow-up inspection, they will definitely find the traces easily."

"so."

He pulled a ten yen coin from his pocket and with a flick of his thumb, the coin flew toward the back hood of Hong Shang Mai.

Hong Shang Wuyi's expression became more and more ugly.

"Would you mind holding that coin out so we can see it?"

“No, that’s not necessary.” She laughed at herself and shook her head. “Anyway, the coin will only oxidize and glow due to the reaction with cyanide.”

"You're right, I was the one who put the poisonous dry ice into Urata's cup." Hong Shang Mai took off her coat, looked at the ten-yuan coin shining in the hood, and looked emotional.

"You really live up to your reputation. You are the savior of the Japanese police, the Sherlock Holmes of the new era."

"Why do you want to kill me?" Urata Kohei asked loudly with anger and resentment.

"Because you are such a disgusting person that you don't deserve to be a doctor!"

Mai Hongue looked back at him with a cold gaze, and when Kohei Urata met her gaze, he couldn't help but shudder.

"You all should know that this guy is going to present his theory at the conference, right?" She said sarcastically, sneering in a low voice, "In fact, in the hospital where we work, there was a patient whose symptoms seriously violated the theory he proposed."

"In order to prevent his theory from being exposed, he deliberately gave a wrong diagnosis, which led to the patient taking the wrong medicine, causing his condition to deteriorate rapidly and eventually leading to his death."

"I cannot sit idly by and watch such an irresponsible person continue to serve as the most important chief physician, and even dream of presenting his stupid ideas to the great academic halls!"

"How stupid."

A cold but stern voice sounded. Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw two people walking out from the audience seats not far away.

“No matter how much you try to disguise it, a false doctrine will never be confirmed by facts.”

"In the realm of science, truth never lies."

An He glanced at Kudo Shinichi who was standing beside him, and then said, "There is no police officer here who has the power to search for evidence and conduct interrogations. In addition, this is an attempted murder. If you admit your mistakes and have a good attitude after the police arrive, I think the final verdict will not be too ruthless."

"As for this arrogant 'doctor'."

He paused deliberately.

After watching the situation for a long time, Mao Lilan finally figured out what happened on the scene and jumped off the stage. She walked to Kudo Shinichi's side and said seriously: "I will ask my mother to go out and collect complete evidence of Mr. Urata's crimes and make his crimes public!"

"Friendly reminder." An He showed a very kind smile, "Xiao Lan's mother is the undefeated queen of law."

Urata Kohei's expression froze on his face, and then he collapsed with a deathly pale face.

"It's disgusting that I almost married someone like this."

Ninagawa Ayako moved away with a look of disgust, then bowed slightly to Kudo Shinichi: "As expected of you, you are the proud high school detective of Teitan. Thank you."

"Ah, that."

Kudo Shinichi suddenly showed an embarrassed expression and raised his voice, not only to Ninagawa Ayako, but also to all the audience members who were showing admiration in the audience: "I'm sorry, but could you please not spread the news that I was here today?"

"Eh?"

Everyone was surprised.

Kudo Shinichi raised his index finger in front of his lips and winked at everyone playfully.

"after all."

Sui Su——

The dark knight's costume was opened, revealing a pure white cloak.

Bang!
There was the faint sound of a ball falling to the ground.

Thick white smoke spread out, completely blocking everyone's vision.

"I just wanted to try and experience the feeling of being a so-called 'modern Sherlock Holmes'. I didn't expect that I would actually encounter a case."

When the smoke cleared, the "Black Knight" Kudo Shinichi disappeared at some point, and standing on the stage was a proud pure white figure.

"Phantom Thief Kidd?!"

Everyone was stunned.

Mao Lilan in the audience turned red and white.

Was she just having a crush on this guy called Kaito Kid? !

"Damn it, don't run!"

She jumped up and jumped onto the stage, even though she was still wearing the princess dress and high heels she used for the performance.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Kaito Kidd quickly threw another smoke bomb and ran to the backstage.

".Is this what you call smart?" Miyano Shiho looked at the farce speechlessly and glanced at An He beside her.

"It's better than having no measures and exposing your identity carelessly like before, right?"

An He was already quite relieved.

"That's true."

Miyano Shiho stopped discussing the matter and looked calmly at Urata Kohei who had lost all his strength and collapsed on his seat, and Hongang Mai who was sitting there waiting for the police to arrive.

In the end, it fell on Ayako Ninagawa, who looked like an outsider.

"By the way, 18 is already the age to get married."

she mused.

For some reason, An He always felt that there was another deeper meaning in her words.

"Hey"

Miyano Shiho sighed inexplicably.

Then he turned around and faced Awa-kun, who was either too sharp or too slow. "Let's get married."

School Festival, a beautiful term.

It is not only a campus activity that Japanese high school students are keen on, but also a good excuse for young boys and girls to indulge in their youthful spirit.

But unfortunately, although this year's school festival got off to a good start, it obviously did not end well.

Inspector Megure and others quickly arrived and took away the real culprit of the case. The stage play, which was missing the leading actor and could not be completed, ended hastily. The audience, who had been blocked for a long time, walked out of the theater with boredom and regret, and came to the school road to visit other stalls.

Backstage.

"Cough cough."

Mao Lilan fanned the smoke with her hands and chased all the way to the exit.

Finally, I saw a familiar figure at the door.

The man had a familiar face, and was wearing a school uniform that was both familiar and unfamiliar to her. He was holding onto the door frame, panting.

"stop!"

She immediately took a step forward and chased after him.

"Just surrender, Kidd!"

"Hey, Xiaolan, calm down!!"

The familiar funny tone of Kudo Shinichi made Mao Li Ran stunned.

"It's me!" Kudo Shinichi quickly explained with his hands and feet dancing, "I had an appointment to watch your performance, but I didn't expect to be knocked unconscious by a stranger. When I woke up, it was already this late. I'm sorry."

Mao Lilan blinked blankly.

"Please forgive me this time!" Kudo Shinichi gave a very flattering smile, clasped his hands in front of him, and spoke exaggeratedly.

"Pfft-"

Mao Lilan suddenly laughed.

There is no mistake, this is the real Shinichi.

"Okay, I don't blame you."

"That's good." Kudo Shinichi breathed a sigh of relief, and then asked curiously: "By the way, Xiaolan, what was going on when you rushed towards me shouting Kidd or something?"

"nothing."

Ran Mao Li silently decided to let Kid go for the time being.

Even though he was a troublesome thief, at least he helped solve a case today, and didn't embarrass Shinichi. He was very much like Sherlock Holmes.

Rather than wasting time chasing after him like a headless fly, it is better to cherish the present.

She gave a reassuring smile.

When Kudo Shinichi saw her expression, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Finally I managed to get away with it.

In this way, the impact of showing up today can be minimized.

Sorry, Kidd, just consider it as a small interest from the last Ryoma Exhibition.

Anyway, this little impact shouldn't be a big deal to you, right?

Kudo Shinichi felt at ease persecuting this relative whom he didn't even know about.

"but."

He suddenly laughed.

“Although I didn’t see the scene, I just saw the expressions of some audience members when they left.”

“It must have been a great show, right?”

Mao Lilan was stunned.

Then she smiled brightly.

"Ah."

On the island of the soul.

The spiritual island at this moment is completely different from when I first arrived in this world.

The crimson stars are no longer the size of sand, but have expanded several times and are dotted in shallow or deep places. Each star symbolizes a belief and can burst into brilliant starlight under the touch of spirituality, showing scenes in reality.

The foggy sea formed by the gray and white mist has also changed greatly. It can be called a "real entity". At first glance, it is a deep black, but if you use powerful extraordinary abilities to observe it, you can see incomparably gorgeous colors flowing slowly.

The island of the mind is shrouded in the two, with a circle of historical curtain hanging around it. Countless thick and thin spiritual threads pass through the gaps in the historical curtain, connecting every crimson star, and the other end spreads to the boundless dream world, with no end in sight.

Inside the island of the mind, things are completely different from the previous one-third acre of land.

With the blessing of fantasy, the space on the island of the mind has become an "uncertain" state. It can be said to be extremely small, or extremely wide. It is divided into different regions, and even intentionally forms oceans and mountains, sky and valleys.

Countries and cities are rising, and countless figures are moving among them.

Three figures were high in the sky, looking at the thriving scene below.

"I always have an inexplicable sense of déjà vu." Fortune teller An He touched his chin.

"I understand." The thief An He nodded in understanding and then pointed downwards.

"Barrier." The curtain of history.

"The Source Castle above the spirit world." Crimson Star.

"Chaos Sea." Misty Sea.

"as well as."

"us."

Audience member An He spoke up: "You all should have a premonition, right?"

The three people at this time did not have any difference in appearance, and their clothes were the same as at the beginning, as if they had not experienced this not-so-short journey to another world, and they were just like when they had just arrived in this world.

No one can tell the difference between them anymore.

"The 'wrong' path creates errors."

An He raised his hand, and a glass bottle condensed out of thin air in his hand, with thick liquid of strange color shaking in it.

"Create extraordinary ways that do not exist in this world, and salvation will come."

A crystal monocle appeared in his right eye socket.

"The Fool's Path, fooling around with history."

He looked down at the island of his mind. No, at this point it could even be called a complete planet. He stretched out his hand toward it and gently touched the curtain of history covering it, causing ripples.

"Give 'true' history to 'false' extraordinary paths, and fools will live forever."

A translucent mask with pupilless eyes engraved on it covered his face.

"The 'visionary' approach, visionary reality."

An He stretched out his hand, and countless connections to people’s dreams emerged.

"In this absurd and boring reality, only dreams come true."

A blank book fell into his hands.
