Conan: Death is Watching Me

Chapter 113 Actor Vest
Office.

Hattori Shizuka was finally persuaded to go back by Osaka Black Chicken.

However, Kazuha was kept by Xiaolan and Sonoko, and the little girls became good friends in a blink of an eye, and kept talking about the past of the Osaka Black Chicken.

The sound of several people laughing kept coming from the living room.

"That guy He Ye..."

Hattori Heiji pretended not to hear and walked into the study. Thinking of the secret code that he couldn't decipher no matter what, he felt a headache again.

It’s not that the code is difficult, but that I have absolutely no clue or direction.

Just those two sentences, I have no idea what they are talking about.

"Brother Kido," Hattori Heiji imitated Xiaolan and the others to get closer to each other, "Do you have any detailed information about Kaito Kidd?"

"Find it yourself," Gao Mo leaned against the desk and pointed at the bookshelf. "The origin of the name Kaito Kidd is that Kudo Yusaku mistook the scribbled 1412 for KID. The complete file should be here."

He is now more concerned about career upgrades than the game of Phantom Thief and Detective.

[Storage Pool: 16 Stars]

[Detective lv5 upgrade: 50 stars, 2/5]

[Actor lv4 upgrade: 40 stars, an excellent performance]

[Deduction lv4, Makeup lv4, Shooting lv3, Voice Changing lv1, Swordsmanship lv0, Karate lv0]

There is no need to upgrade the actors for the time being, but the gap in star rating is still large. There are still 34 stars needed to upgrade to detective level 5.

He plans to look for further direction in his acting career to see if there are more achievements and rewards.

The good news is that her makeup skills are up to par, and she has a talent for science, so she can already open a pseudonym for an actor.

There is no need for the exaggerated disguise of Shimabukuro Kimie's "Longevity Lady".

Considering the long-term contact with people, elements that are easy to reveal, such as height and body shape, cannot be changed. The only thing that needs to change is the face.

Level 4 makeup and special effects makeup are enough for him to perform in front of the screen.

The biggest problem is voice changing. Level 1 is just the entry level and is obviously not enough.

Leaving Hattori Heiji alone to continue working as a slave, Gao Mo visited the doctor's house next door again, found a basement, and tried to figure out voice changing training on his own.

There are some voice changing techniques in "Shimabukuro-kunie's Makeup Guide", and coupled with the talent "Human Voice Changer", it is only a matter of time to upgrade your level.

I just feel like I have less and less energy.

The capabilities of the three books, "Gourmet Guide", "Judo Guide", and "Medical Guide", have not yet been successfully included.

Only karate made the list due to its daily training.

The "Medical Guide" in particular was too professional, and there were many supplementary books that he didn't have yet - even the Kudo family's study didn't have those professional books.

Some of them are simply not available outside.

Huh?
Gao Mo suddenly thought of Xiao Ai who was borrowing the laboratory next door.

Xiao Ai is a genius scientist who develops drugs, so she should also have complete medical knowledge, right?
You can ask when you're done.

"Ugh."

In the living room on the ground floor, Dr. Agasa was fiddling with electronic parts and looked sadly at the black cat sleeping and yawning beside him.

Forget about Xiao Ai, even A'mo came to occupy his basement.

I don’t dare to do experiments casually anymore.

What is this?
The worst thing is that one likes to give away slimming tea, and the other likes to steal snacks.

However, I have to bear the consequences for my adopted granddaughter and brother... by myself.

With a worried look on his face, he touched his remaining hair and continued to study the voice-changing pen.

If this project is completed soon, I can buy a new car and take everyone for a ride.

……

weekend.

The TV series, which had originally lost popularity, inexplicably attracted attention again because the original male lead was killed.

On this day, Gao Mo put on a slightly plump and decadent makeup and was invited by a Japanese TV station to do a live interview program on the "Current Status of Outdated Idols".

Dark eye bags, messy hair, double chin covered with stubble——

He didn't want to come at first.

Later I thought it was not a good idea to hide all the time.

I feel like I can officially say goodbye to my idol "Kiroto Takami" and completely resolve the remaining issues from the past.

In addition, the TV station offered a lot of money, so I accepted the announcement.

After that, he will have to start from scratch and return to the screen under a vest.

He has upgraded his voice changing level to level 3 these days, which is more than enough for use on a vest.

He can even become a voice actor - this is a good idea, voice actors are also actors, he can try it after he has mastered the lines.

Regarding work, Yoko Okino has already given a response.

If he participates in the Japanese TV program again, it can at least give him some face and help find opportunities for his new account.

"puff!"

Maori Detective Agency.

The man with a mustache spit out a mouthful of old wine and stared at the live TV broadcast in disbelief.

"My life now?" Gao Mo, who was nearly disfigured on TV, said calmly, "I don't go out much. I play games like Mantang Tiantang by myself. It's actually not that bad. I wasn't very adaptable when I first quit the entertainment industry, but now I'm used to it."

"Let's not talk about the past. Now I just want to live my own life. I hope no one will bother me... Let the former Chenghu Gaomo live on TV." "I heard that it was female fans and unscrupulous reporters who ruined me, but to be honest, I don't hate them now. It was they who made me see myself clearly."

"What's next? I might have to leave Tokyo and Japan. This place is full of hostility towards me."

Even after the interview program ended and the clips of "Kiroto Takumo's" past performances were played, the man with a mustache was still in shock.

"What's up, Kido-chan?"

"Mr. Kido..."

Several people who knew Gao Mo at the show were also very emotional.

It wasn't like this the last time we met.

"I didn't expect the truth would have such a huge impact on him compared to quitting the entertainment industry."

"call!"

Outside the studio, after the live broadcast ended, Gao Mo had become another young man when he appeared again.

Unlike her previous weak and frail look, she now looks much more sunny.

As expected of Ke Xue’s disguise, if it weren’t for the sweat, even he himself would hardly be able to see any flaws.

It's just that it's very troublesome to prepare, and I can't change my expression instantly like Kidd.

"Are you Domoto Ichi?"

In Studio 5, the costume drama director looked at Gao Mo.

The director wasn't very friendly to the actors who were shoved in through connections, but seeing that Gao Mo didn't have any major problems, he asked the prop master nearby for a samurai sword: "You said you know kendo, would you like to show it off?"

"okay."

Gao Mo didn't have much confidence in actual combat, but he was already very familiar with pretending, and he wouldn't make any fool of himself when he went through the whole set.

"Shh!"

The katana and bamboo sword feel very different, but in Gao Mo's hands it was quite smooth, and the director didn't find any faults in the end.

His films don't focus on actual combat, and the audience may not necessarily understand them. It's enough as long as they're entertaining.

And Gao Mo is just one of the minor supporting roles, he just needs to know a little bit and how to chop.

"Okay, go change into your costume over there. Someone will teach you how to move and respond... You have any acting experience, right?"

"some."

Gao Mo changed into his costume, but the headgear he found was so unbearable to look at that the supporting role was of no quality at all.

Fortunately, it’s not one of those extremely ugly topknots.

"Doumoto? Who is Domoto?"

The assistant director called out.

"We have a scene today and location shooting tomorrow. Don't forget the time."

"Domoto?"

"Here!" Gao Mo quickly put on the hood.

"It's so clean! Go get some dirt!"

"Teacher Hijikata, are we ready to begin?"

The staff who were yelling at Gao Mo turned respectfully to the leading actor.

He was an old actor dressed as a roku, with a samurai sword on his shoulder.

Hijikata Kozaburo is a professional swordsman in period dramas.

Gao Mo sighed secretly.

The start of this vest is not too bad, but it is definitely not bad either. I don’t know if it can get popular.

In fact, period dramas are not very popular now, so entering the industry with them is not a good choice.

But as a new actor, Ma Jia doesn't have much choice.

At least the foundation of period dramas is still there, and it’s not too late to consider transformation after becoming famous.

If this doesn't work, try another direction...

【Career Achievement: Famous Actor 10 Stars】

Um? ?

Gao Mo was stunned by the projected text that suddenly popped up in front of him.

New vest achievement... No, this is just how I got into the industry.

It should be the feedback from the live broadcast just now.

Can famous actors continue to gain stars for their achievements?
It seems that the identity of "Kiroto Gaomo" can squeeze out a lot of benefits...

pity.

It's a bit dangerous to squeeze oil and water together.

In the live broadcast just now, even in that state, he could still feel the malice coming towards him. It was many times more terrifying than when Kindaichi became a famous detective in a pseudonym.

It seems that they felt that he had ruined the theoretical image of "Kirouto Takami".

After a while of being miserable and putting all the blame on Matsumoto Aya, he finally returned to normal.

While being an idol will gain support from fans, you will also inevitably be constrained by them... Fortunately, it's finally over now.

Even if there are some weird fans, their number is probably not large, at least not so many that he can feel danger even through the TV.
