Chapter 12: A Gamble with Death
Huisuke curled his lips and pointed at Conan, who was cheering himself up and looking at him curiously, a little unconvinced. He said:
"Kudo Shinichi, now known as Edogawa Conan, lives in my house. He's not a famous detective, but you might as well call him the Grim Reaper!"

"As long as you're with him, there will definitely be cases!"

what? !

After hearing what Terusuke said, Conan was stunned. He didn't expect that Terusuke, who was so serious just now, would suddenly say such a frivolous thing.

Coming back to his senses, Conan retorted, "What does this have to do with me? I even said you are the God of Death."

When Huisuke heard Conan's words, he couldn't help but laugh, and gave an example to prove his point:
"Two major crimes in four days: a home invasion suicide and an international robbery gang!"

"Oh no, you came the day before I went. There was a kidnapping case that night."

"Five days, three cases!"

"Who would have encountered so many problems before you came? My dad's place has been closed for nearly half a year, and you started working as soon as you arrived. Doesn't this prove something is wrong?"

Hearing this, even Dr. Agasa beside him couldn't help but look at Conan.

Speaking of which, although I haven't counted them in detail, it seems that there are always cases happening around Shinichi!
Conan listened to what Terusuke said, and felt Dr. Agasa's somewhat suspicious gaze, and was speechless.

In his opinion, as a detective, isn't it normal to investigate whenever a case occurs around him?

Thinking of this, Conan said: "It is only because of my sense of responsibility and justice as a detective that I can't help but solve the case when I see it happen."

"Isn't what you said like a crow flying over because it sensed someone was about to die, but then being said to have brought death?"

When Huisuke heard Conan's words, he sneered and said:

"It's okay. It's okay if you don't admit it. How about making a bet? I'll stay at Dr. Agasa's place for a few days during the weekend. You go back and take a good look to see if there are any cases happening where you are!"

Hey, hey, hey, Conan's serious expression just now disappeared, and he suddenly wanted to laugh. Terusuke's abacus beads hit him in the face.

Even if he admitted that Terusuke was indeed a capable genius and that he could even decipher the code a little faster than him, Terusuke's behavior was indeed like that of a child. Didn't he think that if he hid his purpose he wouldn't be discovered?
However, considering Terusuke's own abilities and personality, Conan thinks he can accept the bet, so that Terusuke can use his hacking skills to help investigate the Black Organization. Otherwise, with Terusuke's lazy personality, he probably won't be willing to help.

"Okay!" Thinking of the Black Organization, Conan agreed and said to Huisuke, "Since it's a bet, how about raising the stakes?"

"Bet?" Huisuke smiled. He had originally just wanted Conan to recognize him, but he hadn't expected an unexpected surprise. He replied decisively:

"Okay, if you lose, if I don't want to go when I encounter a case in the future, you must agree and help me convince others!"

"No problem!" After listening to this, Conan thought that even if there was a case, Terusuke would not do anything if he went, so it would be the same whether he went or not, so he agreed decisively.

Before Conan proposed his own conditions, he asked Huisuke:
"Now that you've discovered that I'm Kudo Shinichi, aren't you curious about why I became smaller?"

"Not curious!" Huijie replied decisively, and at the same time said: "Why you became smaller has nothing to do with me. I'm just a little kid who wants to lie down. I don't have the strong desire to explore like a detective!"

Conan was speechless, but thinking that Huisuke was just like that, he told him about his experience of becoming smaller, and then proposed his own conditions, saying:

"So my condition is that you use your hacking skills to help me investigate the organization." "Of course, you only need to do it online, you don't need to face them in person."

"No problem!" Huisuke responded confidently. Not to mention that he knew what case was going to happen next, even if he didn't, he would dare to make such a bet with Conan.

It’s simple, just believe in the halo of death!
Conan looked at Terusuke's expression as if he had already won, and a bad premonition flashed through his mind, but then he thought, he is a staunch materialist, how could he possibly believe in that kind of metaphysics?
Dr. Agasa, who was standing by, saw the two of them finish talking, walked over with a smile, took out a plate of freshly cut watermelon and juice, and said to them:

"Are you done? You're all tired, right? Let's drink to protecting Shinichi's secret!"

Afterwards, Dr. Agasa called Xiaolan and told her that Terusuke would stay with him for a few days and told them not to worry.

……

Five days later, at noon, at Dr. Agasa's house.

Conan, with a thoughtful look on his face, came to Dr. Agasa's house and saw Terusuke who had just woken up and was still yawning.

When he saw Conan, Terusuke was stunned. Before he could speak, he was immediately pulled over by Conan. Seeing this, Dr. Agasa also followed.

Looking at the anxious Conan, Huisuke asked doubtfully, "Did you start school secretly and I'm the only one who didn't go?"

Conan calmed down immediately, exhaled slowly, looked at Huisuke for a while, and said: "You win! How did you know that there would be a case?"

After hearing this, Huisuke smiled. It seems that Conan still doesn’t admit his halo of the god of death!

Then he flipped through the system information that he had set to silent mode.

[Congratulations to the host for knowing the incident was about to happen but not stopping it, which qualifies as lying down.] *3
[Lie flat +10. 】*3
[Congratulations to the host for lying down at Dr. Agasa's house, which is in line with the behavior of lying down.]*4
[Lie flat +5. 】*4
Looking at this information, Terusuke was surprised to find that Dr. Agasa's family actually added 5 points of lying flat a day!

And the case that I knew about but didn't take any action on was actually given 10 points for lying down!

It’s a pity that I didn’t get a single lying point in the previous Italian bandit code map incident. Maybe I interfered too much, so it doesn’t count as lying down.

After looking through the system information, Huisuke smiled at Conan, who had encountered three cases in five days and said, "How is it, Death God?"

Conan was silent for a moment, then said, "It's all just a coincidence!"

Then Conan shook his head and said to Huisuke: "Sister Xiaolan heard that there will be an animated armor at the nearby art museum tomorrow, and she insisted on taking us with her. She also told me to remember to call you."

Is this the end of the story?
Thinking about the old director of the art museum wearing armor and holding a big sword, Huisuke thought in his heart and said to Conan with a smile:

"Sister Xiaolan, you are so skilled at calling me! Shinichi-nii~nii~"

"I'm doing this to avoid being exposed!" Conan said with a slightly red face, and then shouted at Huisuke: "Stop talking nonsense! Are you going or not?"

"Go! Why don't you go!"
