Conan: I don't do anything? If I really do it, you won't be happy.

Chapter 7 Conan's Questions

"Yeah! What a coincidence! Do you believe me if I say I guessed it?"

Conan's heart sank when he heard what Huisuke said.

Does he believe it? Of course not!

But if it wasn't a guess, how did Terusuke come up with the answer?

If Terusuke said that Fujie Akiyoshi committed suicide, or directly told the method of suicide, Conan would think that this was Terusuke's keen observation and he came to this conclusion through reasoning.

But Huisuke insisted that the reason for the deceased's suicide was suicide. Huisuke and he arrived at the scene at the same time, and Huisuke did not collect evidence at the scene. In the absence of sufficient information, what other method is there except guessing?

But just when Conan was about to ask Terusuke, Kogoro Mouri, who had been knocked unconscious, finally woke up. As soon as he woke up, he saw Inspector Megure rushing towards him.

Inspector Megure put his hands on Maori Kogoro's shoulders and exclaimed to him, "Oh, Maori brother, just as you deduced, I have a new respect for you, great detective!"

"Ah?" Maori Kogoro was confused at first, then replied proudly: "Yes, this is my true strength!"

After saying that, he had no idea what was going on and thought of going back to find Xiaolan to find out about "his own highlight", so he called Terusuke and the others to prepare to go home.

Then, as he left, he didn't forget to advertise: "If you encounter any problems in the future, just come to me, the famous detective Maori Kogoro!"

"Damn it, I can only wait until tonight to talk to Terusuke in the room." Conan stopped walking towards Terusuke after listening to what Kogoro Mouri said, thinking somewhat unwillingly.

……

Sitting in the taxi on the way home, Huisuke looked at the system information that Conan had discovered when he solved the case.

[Congratulations to the host for being indifferent to Conan pretending to be Maori Kogoro to solve the case, which is consistent with the behavior of lying down.]

[Lie flat +10. 】

[Congratulations to the host for knowing the truth and not telling the police, which qualifies as lying down.]

[Lie flat +15. 】

Huisuke was stunned. The harvest of this trip was actually 25 lying points.

The profit from watching Conan solve a case is better than sleeping and slacking off all day at school... There are six classes a day, and each class adds two points for sleeping and one point for slacking off. Even if you max out, it's only 18, and then...

"Forget it, I'm too lazy to think about it, just let him be..."

[Congratulations to the host for keeping a calm mindset and not changing his mind based on the amount of reward. This is in line with the principle of lying down.]

[Lie flat +30]

[Congratulations to the host for collecting 100 lying points. Automatically extracting skills...]

[Extraction completed, Hacker level 4.]

【Currently 3 points remaining.】

"Is this okay?" When Huisuke heard the system prompt, he was a little surprised at first. He didn't expect that this could be considered lying down. Then, feeling the information coming from his mind, he couldn't help but feel speechless.

Hacking technology is very useful in modern society, especially in the period when computers are not yet very popular. Level 4 hacking technology can be considered far ahead of this era.

However, precisely because electronic products are not popular, Huisuke does not even have a smart device now. Therefore, although this skill is very powerful, Huisuke hardly uses it now.

However, Huisuke changed his mind and thought that although it was of no use now, with the level of development of "science", this skill would surely come in handy in the near future.

Thinking of this, Huisuke shook his head secretly in his heart, then emptied his mind, leaned back in his seat, and stared at the changing scenery outside the car window in a daze.

However, what he didn't notice was that just as he was thinking, Conan next to him looked at him.

"Do you believe me when I say I'm just guessing?" Conan unconsciously recalled Terusuke's words.

"Did this guy Huisuke really discover something?" Conan looked at Huisuke's eyes, his mind in a mess.

Ever since he got in the car, he has been reflecting on the case he just solved and felt that he was a little impulsive.

When he saw Uncle Maori convicting others, he was afraid that the truth would be buried, so he made those abnormal actions in front of Huisuke. Now that he calmed down, he couldn't help but feel a headache.

Of course, Conan didn't regret it.

In his opinion, upholding justice is the most important thing, but if he could do it again, he would definitely choose a more covert way.

Conan couldn't help but feel a headache when he saw Terusuke "thinking about something" after getting on the car. He had originally chosen to come to the Mori Detective Agency because Uncle Mori was a confused detective who was easier to fool. He wanted to quickly turn Uncle Mori into a "famous detective" so that he could get in touch with the Black Organization.

But now there is a young man named Terusuke who doesn't know his own limits in Uncle Maori's family.

It would be fine if Terusuke really guessed it accidentally, and then he could just find a random excuse to explain his weird behavior today and let Terusuke keep it a secret.

But if Huisuke is really a very smart person, he can analyze the truth of the matter based on his own judgment.

He usually hides himself, so why did he suddenly reveal himself today? Was it intentional or accidental?

Moreover, since we will be living together in the Maori Detective Agency and spending every day together, I am afraid that it will not be convenient for me to do anything in the future.

Although Conan doesn't think that Terusuke can directly think of him as Kudo Shinichi, but if he puts himself in his shoes, Conan will definitely conduct an in-depth investigation if there is such a person around him.

The worst-case scenario is that if Huisuke gets involved in his investigation of the Black Organization and is accidentally exposed, Uncle Mori's family will be in danger.

Thinking of this, Conan, full of doubts, made up his mind to find out what kind of person Terusuke is!

……

At night, in a room in Maori Office.

Thanks to the fact that Conan and Terusuke sleep in the same room at night, Conan doesn't have to find a special place to talk alone.

After waiting for everyone else to return to the room, Conan walked towards Terusuke in the dark and turned on the small desk lamp beside him.

Terusuke, who was about to go to bed, looked at Conan with a look of understanding in his eyes. He knew that Conan wanted to tell him what happened today.

Before, Huisuke deliberately revealed a flaw to Conan, just to let Conan know that he was not an ordinary child, and not to make up some insulting words about his IQ to fool him in the future.

In Terusuke's opinion, instead of acting with Conan, Terusuke would rather take the time to watch two episodes of Kamen Rider.

At the same time, it was also to prevent the butterfly effect caused by himself from causing any major impact, so he wanted to scare Conan and make him behave himself.

After all, there are many heroes in the world, and he is not the only smart person in the world. If he is not careful, he will expose himself to the sight of others.

It would be fine if Conan died accidentally, but it would be bad if Terusuke was implicated.

Conan thought a lot in his mind, then looked at Terusuke and said, "Terusuke, I have something to tell you about what happened today. I believe you have something to ask me too!"

"Yeah." Huijie nodded and responded casually. "The voice changer you used today is quite interesting. You got it from Dr. Agasa, right?"

"Hmm!" Conan's heart tightened when he heard this, but then he thought about how his performance had been seen, and he couldn't help but smile bitterly and said, "Yes, I just got it today."

Then, Conan immediately asked back: "I answered your question, now it's your turn to answer me! When did you know that the deceased committed suicide?"

"I knew it from the beginning." Huisuke didn't care that Conan took what he said as a question, and replied lightly.

Conan looked at Terusuke, whose upper right part of the face seemed to be in shadow under the light of the bedside lamp, and suddenly felt the pressure doubled.

Then Conan stood up and turned on the lights in the room completely, heaved a sigh of relief and said, "It's your turn to ask."

Feeling that he had no questions for Conan to answer, Huisuke thought for a moment and asked Conan, "Can Dr. Agasa give me the whole magical tool as well?"

"Hehe." Conan suddenly laughed out of anger. In such a serious occasion, he had just felt a sense of oppression, but suddenly Huisuke came up with a "wonderful tool". Sure enough, he was overthinking it.

After all, I'm just a child. How many people in this world have the same experience as me?

Thinking of this, Conan, feeling a little relieved, said:

"I'll ask for you later, or you can go to the doctor's house with me next time. He usually won't refuse a child's request."

"But, speaking of this," Conan suddenly changed the subject and said, "Mouri Terusuke, the lazy look I usually see you in is your true character?"

"Hey, you two brats!" Suddenly, there was a pounding on the door, and he shouted, "You have to go to school tomorrow, why aren't you asleep yet?"

After hearing this, Terusuke did not answer, but responded to Conan with his actions. Terusuke pointed to the light in the room, then pulled up the quilt and prepared to go to bed, as if to say, "Are you okay? I'm going to sleep."

Although Huisuke did not reply, the answer was self-evident. Seeing this, Conan smiled with relief.

He knew that Terusuke was still the same Terusuke, his personality had not changed, and perhaps he just didn't understand him well enough.

But it's better than having his identity exposed, or maybe Huisuke is really some troublesome character with a mind like a demon.
