Conan: Death is Watching Me

Chapter 44 Dr. Agasa
Tokyo Rice Flower Town.

Gao Mo came back from Nagano after recording his confession. He took some time to sleep, but he was still not in good condition.

I only felt a little more alert when I looked at the text projected by the system again.

It is now convenient to organize the gains from the case settlement.

The first one is the "Kudo Shinichi Reasoning Guide" drawn from Conan.

He currently lacks reasoning ability. Sometimes he may not be able to realize the clues even if he sees them, and even if he realizes them, it is difficult for him to find the key.

This book came at just the right time.

As usual, it is a reference book carrier on the coffee table.

After the text of the book was projected, Gao Mo read it carefully, and his expression gradually became a little subtle.

I looked at it but it seemed like I didn’t see anything.

There were no supporting learning materials - the Kudo family's library-like collection of books was like only getting the catalog and outline of the martial arts secrets.

Moreover, Kudo Shinichi is too talented, and the content of the guide is basically aimed at geniuses.

This level 1 detective doesn't look very friendly, and I feel that level 2 may not be much better - if the right talent cannot be bound.

Disgusting talent monster!
Gao Mo rubbed his hair and turned his gaze back to the system projection.

It's not without gain.

The notebook had recorded "Reasoning Level 0", amateur-level reasoning - now he relied entirely on Eagle Vision.

Now I have a direction on how to improve my reasoning ability. Just study according to the catalog.

The other is to meet the upgrade conditions for the detective profession - a 4-star detective book.

[Storage Pool: 32 (25+7) Stars]

The problem is that the number of stars is not enough, so you can only upgrade one of the two professions, actor or detective.

Both lv2 require 20 stars.

"Well."

Gao Mo reviewed his experiences during this period in a deep voice, especially the trip to the Suzuki family villa.

Reasoning is important, but not necessary.

To him, a pragmatist, there is no difference between Conan solving a case and him solving a case, and there will be no extra reward.

The trouble this time was ultimately due to his poor ability to disguise himself and his inability to create a disguise.

Compared to the detective level increase, the promotion of actors who may have acquired a talent for disguise is more urgent...

After thinking for a while, Gao Mo put his focus back on the actors.

The sound of turning pages in the notebook echoed in my ears again.

As the glowing text briefly twisted and reorganized, new data information was projected before the eyes.

[Super Ability: Eagle Vision]

[Professional Talents: Quickly Entering the Role, Stronger with Age, Disguise Expert]

[Book Abilities: Makeup lv3, Shooting lv1, Reasoning lv0]

[Storage Pool: 12 Stars]

[Occupation: Actor lv2, Detective lv1] (lv0 occupation is hidden)

[Books: 5 stars "Director Ochiai's Guide to Old Age," 4 stars "Former Metropolitan Police Department Detective's Guide to Pistol Shooting," 4 stars "Kudo Shinichi's Guide to Mystery"]

……

Mamegaki Taeko's "Makeup Guide" disappears after mastering it, just like the low-star books.

The makeup ability is upgraded to level 2.

"Disguise expert?"

Gao Mo cheered up.

This talent actually directly increases the makeup ability to level 3.

The makeup knowledge I already mastered seemed to be reborn, and a lot of new understanding and inspiration continued to burst out in my mind.

In just a short while, he completely surpassed his "teacher" Mameko Mamegaki - in terms of disguise.

"call!"

After digesting and absorbing all the knowledge about "special effects makeup" in his mind, Gao Mo suddenly developed a new temperament, the confidence and professionalism of an industry elite.

If he had been more prepared, he should be able to give himself a good makeup look now, such as dressing himself up as Maori Kogoro...

This seems a bit difficult.

The main reason was that he couldn't imitate the mustache man's expression and devilish voice.

The most suitable vest is still that of a character that does not require any expression.

Gao Mo touched his chin. Besides, the biggest problem was the sound.

He doesn't have Kidd's ability to change his voice at will...

It's okay with unfamiliar people, but it's hard to fool someone like Conan. You can't always pretend to be dumb.

Speaking of voice changing...

Gao Mo suddenly thought of a character - Dr. Agasa who made a voice changer for Conan.

Later, it seems that a collar-type voice changer that can be fixed on the throat was developed.

This talented inventor often takes on various outside jobs. Although many of them are unreliable, he is still quite professional in the field of voice changers.

Many of Conan's high-tech equipment came from the other party. Other props always needed to be repaired, but the voice changer seemed to never have any problems.

You can order a set custom made.

……

"boom--!"

The next day.

Beika-cho 2-chome.

Gao Mo went to Dr. Agasa's villa next to Kudo's house early in the morning with a bag of slimming tea. Before he got close, he saw the flames rising into the sky in the courtyard, and the dust and fog from the explosion quickly covered the entire area.

"..."

Wouldn’t he be killed in the explosion if he went there now?

He had actually been beaten quite a few times during this period.

It's not limited to those bizarre murderous intentions, daily life is also very difficult.

When he goes to queue up to buy something, he always ends up in the slowest line, and sometimes the item is even sold out right before him.

Because Xiaolan won the grand prize many times, he also went to the shopping street to try, but he was the only one who didn't even get the consolation prize of toilet paper, and he wasted a lot of money on shopping.

It's as if all my luck has been sucked away by the mission...

Now that he was in such a dangerous place, he doubted whether he would be infected.

"Cough cough!"

A bald, white-bearded fat old man wearing protective clothing climbed out of the ruins of the wall. He was covered in dust and gasped for breath before he noticed Gao Mo who was far away.

"Sorry, there was a small problem with the experiment... Eh? Are you the Kido Gao Mo that Shinichi mentioned?"

After recognizing Gao Mo, the fat old man immediately greeted him warmly.

"Are you looking for Shinichi? He didn't come today..."

"I'm here to see you, Doctor."

Gao Mo recognized the fat old man who looked like a mad scientist at a glance. He was so recognizable.

He looks like an old grandfather, but his face is very rosy, his eyes are filled with a glimmer of exploration, and he is as happy as a child.

He was not affected at all by the explosion just now - only had a slight scratch on his face.

I really admire you.

"Looking for me?" Dr. Agasa led Gao Mo into the house, not quite understanding what was going on.

The living room was still intact, and it was only the underground laboratory in the yard that exploded.

Seeing the slimming tea Gao Mo brought, the old man's fat face twitched slightly: "Wait a minute, I'll go change my clothes first."

Gao Mo glanced casually at the living room.

In typical otaku style, disassembled electronic equipment parts were scattered everywhere, many messy drawings fell on the floor, and there was a pile of sweets on the sofa.

It looked like a sudden inspiration.

The uneaten hamburgers and fried chicken on the coffee table seemed to still be hot.

Wow, did you run back to the lab to continue your research because you anticipated the explosion?
After a while, Dr. Agasa reappeared in a white coat. He found Gao Mo looking around the living room and coughed lightly with a bit of embarrassment: "I usually clean up well, but today..."

"I see."

Gao Mo interrupted and went straight to the point.

"Actually, I came here this time to ask you to make a collar-shaped voice changer, preferably one that can be hidden by a collar."

"Voice changer?" Dr. Agasa scratched his head. "Does it start changing the voice from the throat? It might take some time. If it's used for singing..."

"The most basic voice-changing function will do. First of all, we need to ensure the quality," Gao Mo interrupted again, fearing that the old man would give him some weird functions. "How much does it cost?"

"Then let's make it 100,000, as a material fee." Dr. Agasa didn't say he wouldn't charge, but gave a friendly price. "Give me three days, and I'll have Shinichi give it to you after three days..."

"No, I'll get it myself. Don't tell that guy about this yet."
